Who should we interview on the first TYT on @current TV? #TYTonTV

Over @TheYoungTurks, we asked the TYT Nation who we should interview first on Current's new TV show, "The Young Turks with Cenk Uygur." Tune in Monday, December 5 at 7/6c to see who joins us.

  1. On Twitter and in our Facebook poll, there was an overwhelming desire to see U.S. Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren and President Barack Obama stop in for the first show. 
  2. @TheYoungTurks Elizabeth Warren for 1st interview. Also like to see Al Franken, Bill Maher, Rachael Maddow, Russ Feingold, Stiglitz
  3. @TheYoungTurks @current Howard Dean, Alan Grayson, or Elizabeth Warren are good choices, but if you can, get president Obama.
  4. @TheYoungTurks Jenk, you are the only one with enough guts to ask Barack Obama the tough questions that no one else dare to ask.
  5. Meanwhile, a few others thought it might be great to have Current TV chairman Al Gore come in and help get the nightly show started off right.
  6. @TheYoungTurks @current Al gore! let's talk about climate disturbance. I don't think people get it still! sad but true!
  7. Since there's been so much Occupy Wall Street coverage on "The Young Turks," some viewers suggested we continue in that thread. The roundtable discussion idea is one of our favorites.
  8. "@TheYoungTurks: Who should we interview on the first TYT on @current TV? #TYTonTV"The people who r on the ground occupying.
  9. @TheYoungTurks @current Can u find the first people involved in OWS, ask them if they thought it would get this big?
  10. @TheYoungTurks What if you brought in a panel of representatives from major Occupy locales for a round table interview/discussion?
  11. But your ideas aren't limited to these three major suggestions. Here are some of the other names and ideas you've sent our way today:
  12. RT @vomsquad: Interview Buddy Roemer! The only candidate fighting for Campaign Finance Reform and supporting #OWS!! He loves #wolfpac! @TheYoungTurks
  13. @TheYoungTurks @current my vote is for people unashamed to tell the truth and do what they say ie @BuddyRoemer @keithellison,Liz warren
  14. @TheYoungTurks @current How about interviewing Mayor Michael Bloomberg and/or Jean Quan? :)
  15. how the scum Mike BLOOMBERG?? hmmm... RT “@TheYoungTurks: Who should we interview on the first TYT on @current TV? #TYTonTV
  16. @TheYoungTurks @current Another would be @JamesGRickards - the upcoming crisis will be cashflow, and hes obv expert on currency
  17. @TheYoungTurks Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Herman Cain (for laughs), David Brock, AronRa, @neiltyson
