Interviewer:

Look, the inauguration represented the beginning of his second term, but it also represented the countdown of (sic) the end of his presidency.

Maxine Waters:

Yes

Interviewer:

And the reality is, like anything else, you gotta get what you can while he's there cause look, come 2016, that's it.

Maxine:

Well, you know, I don't know, and I think some people are missing something here. The president has put in place an organization that contains a kind of database that no one (shaking hand back and forth) has ever seen before in life That's going to be very, very powerful and whoever

Interviewer:

You're talking about "Organizing for America"....

Maxine:

That's right. And that database will have information about everything on every individual in ways that it's never been done before and whoever runs for president on the Democratic ticket, have to deal with that (sic). They're going to have to go down with that database and the concerns of those people because they can't get around it. And he's been very smart. I mean it's very powerful what he's leaving in place and that's what any democratic candidate (smug grin) is going to have to deal with.
