  • @user-zw5tp3qn4s
    I liked the fact that the interviewer never interrupted his guest which is much appreciated.
  • @embervine
    Snowden is a true patriot and servant of the American people.

    Watching yet again. I wish we could have him back here and officially call him a hero. I wish he could run for President of the U.S. It's been a while since we had anyone with this kind of honesty and integrity.
  • @hamfastgamwich
    This man should be remembered throughout history and studied in ethics courses
  • @socman3988
    I’m impressed on how intelligent and articulate this guy is! This guy answers the question with such integrity. This guy should not be prosecuted

  • @MissUSANIAN
    Edward is an enlightened and extremely brilliant being, well above average and his answers are most judicious
  • @lyttlebee
    this is a serious guy, he answers every question with clear thinking logic. he's trustworthy.
  • @HectorMartinez-gy8kp
    When he first got arrested I thought he was a traitor, but after the story broke I came to believe he's a patriot who paid a large price for his country

    "No one really wants to be a whistle blower." The simple fact that they do decide to come forward knowing their lives are likely never going to be as they were, is a statement more powerful than words can muster. They are the few that can actually say with meaning, I AM A PATRIOT! It's criminal that this man lives in exile still.
  • @1henryfication
    We need intelligent people and talent like him to be back home in the US and work for us to use his skills to defeat enemies.
  • @MaCherie92
    I'm impressed by this man. He speaks so eloquently, explains even the most difficult notions in layman terms. Thank you, Ed.
