If you watch more than one episode the Black guy and Eleanor are extremely liberal in their views. Tom Rogan is the neocon globalist that thinks the US needs to be part of everything. Pat Buchanan is by far the most knowledgeable out of all of them and is an isolationist, putting Americans first, some libertarian qualities, mostly conservative leaning etc.
Also John McLaughlin is all wrinkly because he has literally been doing this show for over 30 years. It's one of the few political shows that discusses real political issues and not the dumb things they call news on CNN.
I'm not sure if you know all about this genius you so adore, you being as young as you are but I remember a quite different Pat.
I didn't take much time getting you info but here's a brief wiki on your "most knowledgeable man"

Buchanan has written about the Holocaust. For example, Buchanan wrote that it was impossible for 850,000 Jews to be killed by diesel exhaust fed into the gas chamber at Treblinka.[18] Such statements have led to accusations that he has helped legitimize Holocaust denial. When George Will challenged him about it on TV, Buchanan did not reply. In 1983, he criticized the U.S. government for expressing regret over its postwar protection of Klaus Barbie.[citation needed] In 1985, Buchanan advocated restoring the citizenship of Arthur Rudolph, an ex-Nazi rocket scientist accused of employing slave labor at a V-2 plant.[citation needed] In 1987, Buchanan lobbied to stop deportation of Karl Linnas, accused of atrocities in Estonia.[citation needed] In 1991 William F. Buckley, Jr. wrote a 40,000-word National Review article discussing anti-Semitism among conservative commentators focused largely on Buchanan; the article and many responses to it were collected in the book In Search of Anti-Semitism (1992). He concluded: "I find it impossible to defend Pat Buchanan against the charge that what he did and said during the period under examination amounted to anti-Semitism."[19][20]
The Anti-Defamation League has called Buchanan an "unrepentant bigot" who "repeatedly demonizes Jews and minorities and openly affiliates with white supremacists."[21] "There's no doubt," said Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Charles Krauthammer, "he makes subliminal appeals to prejudice."[22] Buchanan has adamantly denied that he is antisemitic, and a number of conservatives and his journalistic colleagues, some of them Jewish, including Jack Germond, Al Hunt and Mark Shields, have defended him against the charge.[23] It is alleged that, as a member of the Reagan White House, he actively suppressed the Reagan Justice Department's investigation into Nazi scientists brought to America by the OSS's Operation Paperclip.[24] In the context of the Gulf War, on September 15, 1990, Buchanan appeared on The McLaughlin Group and said that "there are only two groups that are beating the drums for war in the Middle East – the Israeli defense ministry and its 'amen corner' in the United States." He also said: "The Israelis want this war desperately because they want the United States to destroy the Iraqi war machine. They want us to finish them off. They don't care about our relations with the Arab world." When he delivered a keynote address at the 1992 Republican National Convention, known as the Culture War speech, Buchanan described "a religious war going on in our country for the soul of America".[25]
