United States Presidential candidate Chase Oliver discusses how he came into politics as a police accountability, and "anti-bush war" activist and how this background forms his ideology. Though some of his stances overlap with progressives, he is not a leftist at all, but a gun-loving, American-style libertarian. In this interview, he defends the classical liberal tradition's view of the individual's relationship to society and challenges conventional wisdom on economics regarding trade wars, monetary policy, taxes, and economic planning. As the only major U.S. Presidential candidate to promise an end to the genocide of Palestinians, Chase's thoughts on freedom of speech may be more relevant than ever. However, he qualified his stance on opposition to Israel's war by adding that the Middle East is "complicated".
