you turned down an earlier chance to play martin luther king. mr. mackie: i did. a few times. i never saw him written the way i grew up knowing him. for martinvery year luther king's birthday would play the king miniseries on television. played dr. king and he was so magnetic. i thought he was dr. king. in the three-part miniseries from the late 1960's, early 1970's. my dad was prolific and specific about how he felt regarding dr. king and it influenced how i felt about him. he always said -- anyone could say that they lead men but only men -- only a man can lead men.

dr. king was radical. he was not passive. he was not the type of leader that sat back and waited for the fight to come to him. charlie: he died fighting for the poor. mr. mackie: he did. i always call dr. king the unforgivable socialist. because nowadays, that word is buton to any politician back then, dr. king really believed in a community coming together to help each other. you make a community garden to feed the neighborhood. that is something that as a community we have gotten away from and now, it is my garden, mallard, my house in this community. charlie: what did you think you had to do to portray dr. king? mr. mackie: for me, -- you see the trailer and bryan cranston

looks exactly like lbj and he portrays him spot on from the lbj that you see in people talk about. i felt was a man who was more known by his actions and his looks. for me, it was more about his essence. you can capture a man's esteem, his essence, the way people felt about him -- people will believe you are that man. i felt trying to look like him would be disrespectful to his legacy. i did not want to do the add-ons. atrlie: when you look back the research you did, it made you more admiring? mr. mackie: by far. in day and age that we live with social media, you are not allowed to be a human being. with dr. king, the more i learned up of his flaws, the

more i admired him as a human and respected him as a man. charlie: flaws and all. mr. mackie: when you put them on a pedestal, they are in -- they are not as relatable. i realized how much i was like him. book.e: you read smiley's how did that influence your? -- how did that influence you? the nature it shows facilitatorwas a for the black community into the white community and the white community into the black community. the one thing this movie shows that you never really see is dr. ofg with his core group advisers, leaders, and friends.

that frustration between stokely and ralph abernathy. and dr. king having to moderate that and then going into the world of lbj and having to moderate that. hoover was after him. and that he was a politician. he played on both sides. that is why he and lbj got along so well. it was ali frazier. is dr. kinge speaking to a group of protesters about the importance of civil rights. >> the government cannot legislate what people feel. folksw cannot make white love you. but the law can prevent them from lynching you. the law can prevent them from denying you a job and your child and education. the law can ensure that you have

the right to vote. you not here today to tell find people who to vote for -- but come election day, let us be sure to send a fine senator from arizona and his tender heart back to the -- where he belongs. meante: i assume that very goldwater. bartrry goldwater. you call acting a serious negotiation. what is the negotiation? mr. mackie: you have two actors on as set and you do not know how the other actor will work. and when or if he is going to respect the craft. you have to find yourself in a neutral position. you don't want to get too big that you don't celebrate the joy of acting. you want to be humble enough to make sure your chasing the great

feeling. like hitting the great shot on the golf course. you are still chasing that one feeling. charlie: you remember how sweet it is. mr. mackie: bryan cranston to work with? mr. mackie: he was phenomenal. it was a career affirming experience for me. i feel like this is the only way to some him up. trumbo atng press for the time. londonsupposed to go to and do press. i had to do a scene that was supposed to be between him and i over the phone. i learned he was not going to be there and i would have to do the scene with a pa. we do this scene and we come back for the second half of the day and no and behold bryan cranston walked in. he said -- i have a scene with anthony so i changed my flight

so i could do off-camera with him. charlie: off-camera? mr. mackie: so he can sit off camera and do his lines and make my performance better. you don't have that experience with actors that have a tense of his career. of his have a 10th career. charlie: take a look at this. to go back to my people and tell them that this president is committed to civil rights. and that this ill even without voting rights will still be a with no further change. if i cannot do that, i will lose their faith. and in their despair, i do not know what will happen. >> is that a threat? riots anymoret than you do.

but, in order to avoid that type of situation, i need to be able to deliver meaning -- meaningful reform. it is a really good movie. i am proud of it. charlie: will this give people an insight into the fact that there can be, if there is a will, for people who want to work together that represent different constituencies, king on the one hand representing importantly the african-american constituency in his role as the civil rights leader. and for johnson, leader of the country, but understanding that progress was as essential. mr. mackie: if you look at it -- dr. king and lbj were both great bipartisan listeners and leaders. the best message to come out of this movie is compromised. you cannot win everything if you

do not give up anything. lbj, india four years and few months he was president, got so much accomplished because he had that bipartisan cancer. he could go on either side of the aisle and talk to whoever he needed to. charlie: take a moment to think of this. on the one hand, there is this all of the way about johnson and king and there is also captain .merica and civil war is this just two things that an actor can do in the full spectrum of a career? mr. mackie: i would like to hope so. an actor isgoal of to string together a bunch of jobs to make a career. when i first got into this business, there were actors that i admired and appreciated and i wanted their careers. i did not want their jobs but their careers. every time i see stanley tucci

and don cheadle and bryan cranston -- those are the guys that i look at and i know every time i see them on a poster, it will be a good one. charlie: they put talent to work in different roles. you wille: you know see a performance and not someone just reciting lines. i want to be known for my resume. if you put your resume out there, you let it speak for yourself. i only strike to put myself in a position to have my resumes for itself. charlie: because of all of the controversy, at this time of the academy awards and those that did not get nominated -- and not because they did not think someone else should be nominated. that happened throughout the academy award nominations. has the impact and the focus on that had some change potential? mr. mackie: i think so.

very interesting place right now as far as entertainment. we as a group of entertainers have not figured out how to utilize our assets. no one knows where the internet market is going. no one knows how to utilize that best yet. we are trying to figure out how to turn this cable thing with all of these great shows and writers and actors going to cable television -- how to change that back into film and at the same time utilize the internet. --re are is a plethora of there is a plethora of possibilities and a huge reward or the person who figures out where the internet plays into film. we should not limit ourselves to the moniker of being in the movie theater. have so many outlets. those outlets have garnered the recognition. charlie: you also represent the

idea that you do not have to live in los angeles to be in the movie business. a. mackie: new orleans is perfectly good place. i love los angeles. i adored new york city. but there is a magic in new orleans that you cannot find anywhere else in the world. there is an appreciation of life. ofre is of fervent love neighbors and community that you cannot find anywhere else in the world. and, we are in the middle of testable season. charlie: are you playing johnny cochran in the film? early johnny cochran when he made a name for himself. there is a case where -- johnny cochran redefined civil justice. he brought the the ethical show to the courtroom. show to thel

courtroom. you saw that prime display with the oj case. what he was able to do or what mr. cochran was able to do early in his career was outstanding. we want to show where he was at the beginning of his career and how it blossomed -- if you need a lawyer, the only lawyer you can get is johnny cochran. --rlie: the only lower lawyer you want to get. thank you for being with us. mr. mackie: thank you. charlie: back in a moment. stay with us. ♪

there were three people who did not treat me differently. they will always hold a special place in my heart. i remember one news producer -- that to toe with me would happen sometimes it when we did not agree on how to cover a news story. was so happy that this person had the guts to stand up to me for what he believed in when it came to what should be on the air. going tot like -- i am be her yes ma'am. we had a healthy argument about how to cover a story and i liked that. he did not care who i was married to. and i tried -- i never talked about my personal life. i remember one day, tony moran rante, he said to

angus king is the most

prominent, independent political officeholder in america. the two-term governor of maine. he was elected as an independent to the united state senate in 2012. he serves on the budget and armed services committees. he caucuses with the democrats while endorsing republicans as well. senator king, thank you for being here with us. we have never seen a political year like this. for king: it has been good the country. everyone has gotten their views out. you have a candidate that represents every slice of the electorate. can we put it all back together again in november and in january. the danger is that we are heading into a timeframe where the government is not working well. ofon't mean the bureaucracy the system the framers designed. what worries me more than anything and i have seen this is

when willingness to listen and be reasonable and compromise is in its self a capital offense in politics. if you are seem to be trying to find a solution through compromise, people in your district may well vote against you just because of that. not because of your edition -- your position on anything. al: a book just published on hillary clinton says she is a good deal more hawkish than barack obama. she supported the iraq invasion. she was a prime pusher for going into libya. she thinks we should have intervened more in syria. does that worry you? sen. king: i wouldn't say it either way. the real issue is, what is your temperament? that may be the most decision about how you make this decision. we do not know what the issue

will be. it is hard to say that she is predisposed to using rce in every situion. i think it is probably true. came iny is that obama wanting to end wars and he has now been at war longer than any president in u.s. history and opening up new fronts as we speak. in part because of the nature of the world that we live in. al: you sit on the intelligence committee. what is your general feeling about the secretary using a private e-mail server while she and circulated some sensitive material that was subsequently classified? have not read the e-mails or been deeply involved but i understand that colin powell did the same. it is not unheard of. here is the irony. timeframe, the state

department server was hacked and hers was not. hers may have been more secure. it is sort of a funny sideline on history. i don't think it was a good idea. i do not know why she did it or what the thinking was perhaps it was more convenient. but whether there was any compromise of national security information -- i don't think there was. that this story will dog her. they were slow to release the information. e-mails.w out disposed of e-mails without any third party looking. it was handled poorly in terms of lettuce just get it all out there. let everyone see it and move on. by dribbling it out it has made it a six-month story. donald trump has given several foreign-policy speeches in the last month or so. what is your impression? sen. king: i have to tell you a

story. two months ago -- i am a member of a subcommittee of armed services called strategic forces. that is a euphemism for nuclear weapons. two months ago, several of us went out to andrews air force base and got on an airplane i did not know that it existed. it is known as the doomsday plane. the plane that would go up and provide command and control during a nuclear strike. it is pretty sobering to be on that plane and realize what its mission is and then in the and flew outok off came backountry and

to washington. in the middle of it, there was an exercise of a mock nuclear strike. an air force officer played the present. here is the point. the thing that hit me almost this really was that in that situation, there is only one person making the decision. there are no checks and came bak to washington. in the middle of it, there was an exercise of a mock balances. there is no congress. there is no vice president. there is no consultation. one person has about 20 minutes to decide the fate of civilization. i had never thought about that. we think about our system of checks and balances. that was powerful. i have to tell you, that is a question that i have about donald trump. al: how do you assess his temperament in that situation? sen. king: i don't know the man. but he seems hot. impulsive. the tweeting. if you poke cam, outcomes a tweet in the middle of the night that is brutal. it is not measured. measured?ed someone

onouple more specifics foreign-policy. he says we are bearing too heavy a burden. other nato countries it should pay more than we do and even suggested the possibility that in asia, our nuclear umbrella would disappear and korea and japan could get nuclear weapons. sen. king: if we did that, the asian part -- we are going to back off the nuclear umbrella. japan and south korea will get nuclear weapons. do we want that? with all of the dangers of misallocation of fissile material? that is not a thoughtful policy prescription. as far as nato, everyone knows the nato countries should pay more. the president has said that, they have agreed to it for many years. that is a legitimate point.

but then, when you question the underlying premise of nato and? is nato really still relevant that is an invitation to aggression. keeping muslims out -- that statement. i haven't to be on cnn and the hour that he said that and wolf blitzer said -- what do you think? my immediate response was -- it is a gift to isis. al: you agree with general us?ray us -- petraei isis wants to drive a wedge between the peaceful muslim community and the west. to the extent that we alienate muslim communities here or are perceived to do so they say --

yes, look at what they are doing in america. you cannot trust them. al: if this is as polarizing a campaign as it looks like it will become it is there a market for an independent candidate? going to be so generous? sen. king: third parties are hard to start. it either takes a very charismatic leader or a burning issue. in 1856, you had the issue of slavery and then you had abraham lincoln four years later. that is very difficult. but there will be places where there will be independence. one of the problems is that the favor of theged in two parties. it would cost roughly $50 million just to get on the ballot in all 50 states. whereas the parties are on

immediately. might calm.time it depends on the circumstances. who the candidates are. -- if there was a third-party kennedy to the middle or to the left, a would probably elect donald trump. the republicans are worried about a third-party candidate to the right which would elect the democratic candidate. that is always the danger. once you get into three party races, anything can happen. -- what aregarland the prospects of him eating confirmed --being confirmed? clinton isif hillary elected, 95 percent. i think the republicans will make a judgment that they will take merrick garland over some and she would nominate later on. that is just my practical assessment.

i think it is a real shame that we have not had a hearing and a vote. him, for about half hour, 45 minutes, we had a very good discussion. i kept having a feeling that i wished there was a camera over my shoulder so that people could meet him. he is a judges judge. i have no idea of his political party or background. it does not jump out at you. he is not an activist. he is the kind of guy you want on the supreme court. he will take the law and apply it. i think he would be a swing justice like sandra day o'connor. and that is a role that he would play effectively. also, he is a consensus builder. i agree with you. i do not think there is much likelihood at all than anything will happen between now and november. to see theou like supreme court overturned the citizens united case? --. king: the old saying

aandeis characterized it as dear elect on the waters of the law. the reasoning was unsupportable. overturnedving it would be a lot easier than a constitutional amendment. when you get into a constitutional amendment, you get into the parameters of the first amendment. it would be very complex. i voted for tom udall's bill to a constitutional amendment to repeal it but as a practical matter, some kind of reconsideration by the court makes sense. it isise, we are just -- just getting worse and worse. a tsunami of money, particularly unaccountable money. no one knows where it is coming from. i really -- i don't want to

sound alarmist but it worries me about the future of our democracy. al: let me get you to put on that armed services hat. are we turning the corner against isis? yes and no. on the ground in iraq and syria. their territory is contracting. will bethem out of iraq very difficult. the standard rule of thumb is it takes 10 people attacking to dislodge one soldier in a city. it will take a lot of people. and it will take a long time. and these guys have no qualms about using civilians as a shield. having said all of that, their control of territory is diminishing. that partially explained why we are seeing up -- an uptick in these bombings in baghdad,

brussels, paris. they are trying to keep their recruiting up, believe it or not, killing people is a recruiting tool for these guys. al: to be successful in iraq, that government has to function. do you have any confidence that the iraqi government can function? is. king: my confidence diminishing. a real opportunity was missed with malachi. he, that situation more than any other paved the way for isis to come in particularly into iraq. -- maybe these guys will get us a better deal. al: what about intervening in a syria? sen. king: we have created a friendly atmosphere for them. we -- the iraqi government --

i'm not including the kurds and the sunnis. that government right now, a body wants to do the right thing but the politics in baghdad are brutal and you have got the shia militia, you have iran in the background. if they do not get their act together as a government in baghdad that includes sunnis and kurds, it is a homeless -- hopeless fight. the only independent member in the congress. if you were king, who would you tap as president? sen. king: the guy that i have been most impressed with is tim kaine of virginia. he is prominently mentioned as a vice presidential candidate for hillary clinton. berry successful -- he was a mayor, a governor, he knows about being an executive.

a very successful governor. state it is a contentious with conservatives and liberals. popular, working with both sides. i got to know him personally. he is a deep thigh, spiritually and intellectually. a terrific public speaker. al: angus king, thank you so much for being with us. and thank you for watching. ♪
