Rep. Blumenauer also says that he hopes Obama talks up the benefits of the Iran deal in his speech tomorrow, although he concedes that is "unlikely."
1:39 A lot of love in this room for Senator Tim Kaine, who is seen as a close friend of J-Street. Rep. Earl Blumenauer of Oregon talks about the difference he believes J-Street has made in the public discourse, and credits Kaine for consistently working with them.
1:25 I'm back with J-Street, for a talk on the Iran deal and J-Street's role in the campaigning in favour of it. Spoiler alert, I'm expecting them to speak about why they liked it and why they believe they did a good job supporting it.

12:51 Let's try that again. Here is our second interview, and it's with Yair Rosenberg. Yair is a senior writer for Tablet Magazine, and one of the most prominent Jews on Twitter.
