About this listen

 José Vasco, born into a hardcore Democratic family, hit a roadblock when the party seemed to abandon its working-class concerns and instead got mired in neoliberal identity politics. José then made a jump to conservative Republicans for over a decade, only to find that their insanity was no walk in the park either. In this podcast, Old-Fashioned Democrat, José will keep searching for the ethos of a Democratic Party committed to harnessing the power of government for the common man.Copyright Maverick Broadcasting Network Political Science Politics & Government

    Iran-Israel War Is Tearing MAGA Apart and No One’s Talking About It | Danny K
    Jun 23 2025
    In this episode of Old-Fashioned Democrat, José is joined by Danny K, an Armenian-Arab political scientist currently living in Florida. We discuss the Iran-Israel war by focusing on the major changes that will be caused by it: the fracturing of the MAGA base, the breaking up of the new left, the shift to a post-Israel global south, and the drift toward a BRICS-dominated landscape. This packs a lot of information in 48 minutes. Please like, share, and subscribe OLD FASHIONED DEMOCRAT. You can also follow José on X at @josevargasvasco.

  • Mark, 66-Year-Old Sales Executive, On Why He Jumped From Trump to RFK Jr

    Mark, 66-Year-Old Sales Executive, On Why He Jumped From Trump to RFK Jr
    Jun 27 2024
    In this next installment in his series on RFK supporters, Jose interviews Mark, mid 60s, son of a Baptist minister, father of two liberals including a female Lutheran pastor, and lifelong veteran of the sales profession, on why he jumped from Trump to Kennedy for this voting season. His parents were old-school Southern Democrats, when the Democrats had values that would prompt many to lean Republican today. Mark talks about voting for Trump in 2016 and 2020 and why his moral dissatisfaction with Trump's character made him unable to support Trump again. As he says, "It was a blessing to have Kennedy as an option so I could vote against Trump and still feel good about who I was voting for."

  • BEN, 21-Year-Old Guy Who Supports RFK, Explains His Drift From Trump to Kennedy

    BEN, 21-Year-Old Guy Who Supports RFK, Explains His Drift From Trump to Kennedy
    Jun 24 2024
    "If Joe Biden wins, I am certain I will be sent away to die in another country."

    In the Old-Fashioned Democrat episode, Jose interviews Ben, a young Texan from a Republican family who has come over to join the RFK campaign. He speaks from the heart about what it was like growing up hearing "angry white men" on the radio all the time, then surviving COVID as a high-school student and waking up to the fact that so much of the news was lies. He touches on those issues that made him trust RFK instead of the other parties: the skepticism toward Big Pharma and Big Medicine, the love of the environment, and the desire to get away from the Deep State. Most of all, he has a strong conviction that the two major parties view young men like him as mere cannon fodder for foreign wars to make money, especially the Democrats.

    Ben also speaks eloquently about the obstacles Kennedy faces in reaching young men like him.
