More quotes by Aaron McGruder
When the news wants to tell you something is important, they put dramatic theme music behind it. They scare you into watching the story.
Aaron McGruder
We don't need a two-party system. We need something else. Because at this point, the two-party system is really just a one-party system. And that one party is crumbling.

Fame is not your friend. It ain't necessarily your enemy. It is what it is.

I think there's a lot of good and bad to L.A. One of the things you have to consider is that you can, if you're lucky, make a decent living here. That's a big plus. That's pretty positive. The weather is OK.
Aaron McGruder
It's difficult to overcome what you're getting beamed into your brain by the television every day. The worthlessness of journalism today is just making the country confused and bewildered and lost.

Anyone with a gun can go out and commit an act of terrorism, even without a political affiliation.

Don't get me wrong, it definitely ain't the Democratic Party either. They're so bad, I mean I'm actually starting to believe that John Kerry was just token resistance, that he literally was down with George W.Bush. It was just such a horrible, horrible, horrible thing to see, that campaign. So, you know, I don't know what's going on.

You can't accuse the creator of The Boondocks, ... Jesus was black, Ronald Reagan was the devil and the government is lying about 9/11.
Aaron McGruder
One, I push my deadlines closer than anybody else, or let's say it this way: I'm really late.
Aaron McGruder
At least when I was young, in high school: Eh, voting doesn't mean nothing. You don't really know that to be true, you just say it. Then you get older, and responsible, and you go, Oh heck, let me vote. And then you vote and you go away. I was actually right when I was 16.

I think revolution is always a little bit possible. I think it won't look or sound anything like what we would expect. But I think revolution is very difficult, and I'm not optimistic for any kind of dramatic change.
Aaron McGruder
Perhaps it's time to start examining countries that have made democracy work while still having some kind of the same relationship in covenant with their population. Perhaps we need to look at the Scandinavian countries, or Canada, or something else, but whatever we have now, I think we just have to acknowledge, ain't workin.

When I pass, speak freely of my shortcomings and my flaws. Learn from them, for I'll have no ego to injure.
Aaron McGruder
Obviously, there's a million things we're allowed to say on late-night cable that you're not allowed to say on a prime time broadcast.

That's not saying there's not a bunch of good Democrats. I'm sure there's a lot of people who still haven't figured that out yet or simply don't want to have that pessimistic of an outlook, but I think the Democratic Party is completely worthless.
Aaron McGruder
It may sound weird, but I don't really look for culture, particularly in an American city.
Aaron McGruder
I don't know what the future holds. It seems to be going in a really bad, bad place really quickly, and I don't have the answers and I don't have the solutions and I don't know what's gonna happen to change it. But the continued apathy will only lead to a worse situation for everybody.
Aaron McGruder
I don't want the news to be patriotic. I don't want to see flags on the lapels of the anchors. I don't want any of that.
