Hi Everyone and Welcome Back!This week on The Nick Halaris Show we are featuring Dmitri Mehlhorn, the Founder and Executive Director of Oakland Corps, an organization dedicated to standing in solidarity with Oakland-born Kamala Harris.  Dmitri is a prominent Democratic donor and strategist.  Previously, he served as co-founder of Investing in US, a novel group that has deployed venture capital principles to political investing.   I wanted to have Dmitri on the show to learn more about the emerging new field of political investing and get his insider’s take on just how seriously we should take the threats to our democracy.  As you’ll see in the episode, Dmitri thinks we have a ton of reasons to be concerned but remains optimistic that the fight for freedom can be won.  Whether you agree with Dmitri or not, this a must-listen episode for understanding the true nature of big-money politics in America.  Tune in to this fascinating episode to learn:The surprising role that Dmitri played in the evolution of Profit+ and the Nick Halaris ShowHow it is even possible for someone to be an undecided voter in today’s polarized landscapeWhy the urban youth vote in 7 swing states will probably determine the outcome of the Presidential electionWhat political investing is and how applying venture capital principles to it has made such a big difference for the Democratic partyThe historical origins of the urban versus rural divide and why we shouldn’t discount the notion that the tech and finance elite are actively pursuing oligarchical control/influence& Much, much moreStay tuned to the end to learn how Dmitri is finding courageous voices from unexpected places to help the Harris campaign and to hear why a famous scene from “The Dark Knight Rises”—which has already been featured once before on the podcast!—is relevant to the current political moment.As always, I hope you all enjoy this episode.  Thanks for tuning in!      Love this episode?
