Texas Democratic gubernatorial primary challenger Hank Gilbert was another of the candidates to attend last weekend's Democratic National Committee meeting (see our coverage of the event in this week's issue here). Video camera in hand, Legeland snagged a quick video interview.
Gilbert discussed why he decided not to run for agriculture commissioner, why he's challenging Governor Rick Perry, and why America needs a strong working class.
