what we can do when it finally happens. and the second question is, from your travels, where would you anticipate a mass migration because of starvation triggered a global warming. where do you think that is most likely to occur? ..

>> a the right to that does not like muslim migrants. as a site of a potential conflict. of but i think they are arguing their crucial that is why they argue for radical mitigation. >> they talk about doing things now they're not looking at when they will occur or in other words, , planning now. plan a floor the world after two except the fact that nothing will be done. they will look back to say we should have been planning

for this. >> in his latest book, he argues it is possible but tipping points of the positive tipping points of climate change could increase to the point* the planet is so hot it is like the this to wipe out all life many hundreds of years into the future. with the projection, and they don't see it has a reasonable to wait for a tipping point* is because that is when you sell off the self cooling process. it is the essential to prevent that because once that happens it could unravel. >> nobody is planning that

nothing would be done and a the tipping point* will occur? finreg that is a cynical to say nothing will be done in although the epa is moving forward with rules on greenhouse gases and the obama administration has issued the executive order to tell federal agents how to reduce the carbon footprint. not to get scared when they pushed back lead to to say nothing will be done is an invitation to carry on and enjoy a until the apocalypse hong and that would be highly irresponsible. it would be easy to say you blew it. put it is more difficult to say wait. despite everything and all the problems how will we

deal? we are a very intelligent species to create a lot of technology. there is enormous amounts of wealth to build into the transformation. corporate america since on more uninvested cash since 1956 1.8 trillion dollars. if those proper government regulation the money could move into climate mitigation and adaptation. is highly irresponsible to say we blew it. enjoy your life before the apocalypse. that is why i do not give up. thank you for coming. [applause]

[applause] >> thank you. i want to start first off >> loya doo start off by thanking you for inviting me tri year and organizing this. on many trips to man hadn't i have attended the events and it is an honor to be onthan this side of the podium. for i want to apologize for being so light. that does not respect a followed your time. please accept my apology. fiv we started off at 5:00 ins., the morning at fox and friends and have gone nonstop with the final stop at cnn 11 interview goes late from its piles up than everything is late and i sincerely apologize. i want to address what is on your mind and answer your questions not just about the

2010 campaignn,ll but also moving forward and i want to start by talking about why i wrote the book and what i hope to accomplish with the book. i wrote the book because it this there is a crossroads as a matter of fact i extended we can go forward as a united party but i do talk a lot about the cronyism especially of the y republican party in delaware that those leaders have been ousted. not only to fan the flames but put it to rest that

while background was could embrace the principle that the grass roots crowd, that the party was founded on and the country was foundedn on, we will be a powerhouse if we can unite. to illustrate a point* what happens when we divide instead of the night. everybody knows, it is no secret that the 2010 elections of the republican party were divided but i draw the contrast between kentucky and my own rise. which mcconnell was campaigning against rand paul. he was the worst thing to happen to politics until heft

won the primary. then mitch mcconnell and rand paul were arm in arm th saying that is the path.e we have to move forward to make sure he crosses the finish line. unfortunately that did not have been in delaware but it has to happen for us to win in 2012. that is the message i hope people can take away by reading the book.lv i tried to tell the story of how i got involved in politics and what made me embrace the principles and why i chose to become a republic can. ipo i told in a way that some political of l pfizer's have can said was a little too honest, i should not have admitted some things. but i did that again so "the reader" can relate in this not have any mistakes we have made you cannot pretend

to be perfect it is toack exhausting to keep up the side.ethe but do you get back up and can you own up to yourher mistakes and correct yourg mistakes and are you willing to forge ahead in spite of the opposition? that is why i chose to address what i did and talk about where it came from and the hardships i haveed endured so that people can be inspired to get involved. when i was on the campaign trail, i met so many people and i talk about where my and five who was working with me, we stopped to get gasper cushy remand in to pay the woman and when she saw the sticker 4t94 senate she said tell your sister we hope that she wins

and went on too clearly articulate her frustration. she said you can do more than help and she said you can vote to four per. she said i am not a political and i am not the type who votes.os i chose to tell the storyth not to shame her but there is a mindset that's a certainty the to control the j political party not just a political party but establishment all sides of the iowa. thoseim people who were impacted by the policy forget you can get involved. not only can you getiall involved, you must get involved so we talk about a practical application. especially the republican women you are the leaders and especially the manhattan

republican women. [laughter] i have often said women politicians have a double standard. conservative womenda double that dazed face it even more but republican women in manhattan, you have the triple with me. i really hope this book can inspire you that in spite of they. opposition that in spite of what might seem like all the odds are against you, we have a winning message. the beginning part of the book is the story., h how wide got involved inti politics, where i came from. b maybe we will get to it but right now quite honestly i was involved because i thought the boy at the republican table was cute and paying $75 per day to pass out literature on election day and was it would turn down that type of

money? although my motivesht may have beginrought to with, i found i truly stumbled upon something that i loved. being with that environment loc especially north jersey.ns, i could ask them questions.u why do stand for this are take this position can you explain this?n and that got our attention and new-line may not startedn off as the right reason but it tapped into a passion. i like what these republicans have to say. i think i am republican.

i don't know what i was registered at the time but then i was invited to work on a campaign as a youth leader in houston in 1992. just being a curious didn't asking questions, the people lo around me embracing that and not looking down that i was young is what brought me into my political career.n i suppose with a practical application of the principles of the republican partypl because they are notthe just what our party wasry founded but in which our country was founded.e i tried to give some practical applications about the policies we need to embrace moving forward. and what we can do like those women at the gas station. i get it. suddenly found myself very

much of the political tide. but we mth have to get beyond that mind-set so i close with practical applications. th fear is a chapter that onernme thing is that government is too big, the size exploded under barack obama and recently i have heard some democratic pundits saying big government is a good thing and it is supposed to take care of the people. unless we can clearly articulate why a big government is not a good thing, we will lose.feat also defeating the power of the sound bite is onewe chapter. is specially being in manhattan you may feel frustrated all round to is

the liberal commentary and misinformation, i understand that frustration but we have power right now. who especially when men who are the unsung heroes of any major advance in american history could take it in your brain and jobs but capture the culture of misinformation that tames to plague the mainstream media. so talk about defeating the power of the sound bite plan also talk about some practical arguments against socialism.ote to say that obamacare is the final nail in the coffin

spot that will push us over the edge so we were pushing back isn't socialism a good thing? we've tried to address the fundamental flaws which ist number one, reduces the value of the individual to which it is cost-effective. use see that with socialized medicine. they do not deserve the treatment. number two, what about systems like prayer? and everything french is hip and cool so why not have

america model of french socialism. isn't that don't pay? in no. it is not right to to put that kind of oppression on people. the second flaw that i go into greater detail, r i ain tht a socialist economy, if you don't already have the means to get ahead, it is very likely that you and generations to come will w stay dependent on the government and that is the problem. it knocks out the american am dream. a on the campaign trail i would say what you think the american dream is?uld so often people would raise h their hand to say to have a car or a house or to have ayo car and house for your family. you think that is great but it is not.

to me the definition is to be able to work hard to earn that a house and to learn that car and that is the american dream. matter where you come from gore the economic background you may haveng started, if youa can work hard and a sacrifice and go the extra mile, and exercise the spirit ofsh entreprenuership entreprenuership, and make those creative sacrifices and take thend blows and theyour hits and have several bad business is before it succeeds you leave your children and grandchildren a better future. in a socialistor model, they're simply does not allow for that room for their profit margin when more than half goes to pay for taxes at and the social fees which is a euphemism for more taxes.

there is not enough profit margin. we have to remember the principles on which this country was founded and remember not too long ago democrats supported this as well. going into 2012 we have to have the radical ideological reawakening of the principles that made our country great it will takeifie us to be a unified party to make sure barack obama truly is a one-term president. i have a whole chapter that led called of follower in chief you probably have questions about 2012. >> you have a question and please line up behind the

microphone. >> who do you think will be our candidates? >> i honestly don't know. it is survey. >> who was could you guess it? r >> it is hard to say semi people get so frustrated but all of them have great characteristics and is day testimony to the dialogue the tea party has brought to the table with a balanced budget amendment that let's look to that old debt ceiling discussion his stead

we had not pointing fingers at two each other to say what is wrong with put to azine safety measures to make sure we get into this we would have been much more successful but to get over the finger-pointing but the the mere fact that was the been part of the discussion that we have true champions of the constitutional are principles not just those who say it we have those who will fight for our country and for our party and have a winning message.

we should be proud of the message in we can do greatfter things. >> you touch day little bit y on your troubles after your primary win and ther difficulties with the party establishment. what is your relationship right nownc with the delaware party and the rnc?uest what are your plans politically? >> first of all, i do want to clarify that my trouble is with a former republican in leadership.en there has been a growing discontent in delaware with the political establishmentt on both sides of the aisle that has shut out the people, the voters.y my a candidacy did not create the discontent but tapped into it and because

of those dirty underhanded tricks of former leadership did, they were ousted now the new chairman understands we need to unite the former president of the nra has done a great job to build the unity to take back the stake -- state house so we can be a strong and unified force to help it take pride in the principles of which we stand but that's ousted leadership is still unhappy and still resorting to o underhanded tricks because i talkat about how one of the things the former chairman did was file a false claim against me with the sec. not only did the delaware republican leadership but

also the democrats did this. i have since been cleared of all of those but why is it to a sleazy the underhanded trick because to file a false claim for political motive is abusing the justice system. any of you who has day vendetta can accuse them toit have the police to look into that without facing consequence is when they realize it was vindictive. but that is what the former chairman did in that sec saw right through it and there was no merit to the claim. they try to fight back right now these are the same people who lost the post because of their dishonest tactics dishonesty and trickery is not off the

table but painfully we do happen in leadership and new people involved chairman steel is great he called me the day after the primary and personally came to delaware.e i talk about bad in the book. i hope with the rnc we still have that good relationship. kn like i said earlier on fox the and cnn i extended the olive branch to karl rove and said let's kiss and make up so we can get behind who wins the republican nomination. to talk about the issues that he in to make sure we hold barack obama accountable. >>

>> i did have the pleasure to hear you earlier today and it was great on your part to for what you did sayng to karl rove. but yout alluded the establishment across the board of all political parties you are a victimidat there of would you run for office again? vandam what capacity and what position? >> and that is a good question and a part i forgot to answer. in the book i talk about the decision making process when i ran for office previously. i can honestly say i don't know. the reason for that right now my folk is at hand is to

filing counter complaints. i started so we could fight because crew is the same organization that went after kurt and sarah palin and good candidates. a my employer in that case also represented many of the cruise other victims. it is an exhausting process. all because i have to say allegedly for legal reasons this affidavit but the u.s. p attorney's office saw rightur through it and dismissed it but usually what happens is the candidates obviously win the election because crew will file the complaint then release the press release in

the same day size to get closer to election day the headlines read candidate is accused of bill they gore activity. all of my attorneys clients have been dismissed. but youesre are so the motion newly tapped and financially tapped you are just glad you survived for i did not earn that title troublemaker, i did learn that title troubled maker for reason and they picked on the wrong person. we're fighting back and filing our own series of counter complaints with the u.s. attorney's office and state attorney general and the irs. there is really shin beau see biden legacy if i get a fair a shot. [laughter]o i am sure he will want to give his case the proper treatment but also asking the irs to revoke their tax

status because they are 1/8 501(c)(3) organization when george soros donates hisns millions it is a tax write-off. he and warren buffett went to write more checks to the government, a great. if you are the 501(c)(3)ell organization as you know, you cannot engage in direct political activity. you can educate the voters but you cannot actively campaign. if you look at the worst relax of 20128 of those 12 are republican and of those four that are democrats three of those are

african-american and. in the very beginning of the cruise existence they did not go after democrats have also peopleehe started 2.a finger at the obvious partisanship and politicalan motive then they started tod on pick of the black caucus. and not easily the fanfare going after me or sarah poin or others. there obviously politicalande motivated and melodies loan was guilty of slander and so many ways. [laughter] and we are fighting back.fi that is on the top of my priority list right now because when candidates when they do not have a platform to louis ban nine or a record to defend even if

democrats are beginning to say about the obama administration did have a record to defend, they resort to the politics of personal destruction. live we don't stop this destructive behavior they will continue to do that..arly again you cannot accuse your neighbor of particularly f because you may face charges of your own to abuse the justice system. crew cannot do what they did.ik in terms of running for office, i honestly don't know. we can really enjoy civilian life which sounds appealing but i wrote the book because we need more al and west and jim demint and michelle bachmann and sarah palin and maybe some of you in this

room. but as an outsider, when people watch what happened when realize things that you said 25 years ago will be dug up and taken out of context, why would i ever do that?t why would i embarrass myself or risk myif reputation? if we allow them to do that we allow them to win all nee over again.trou because we need more trouble makers to challenge the status quo to hold their administration accountable. put their name on the line. we may not win the first time around but we arefere making a difference and paving the way and moving thnge standard further for future candidates' especially, especially for women. w tip my hat to your organization in such a difficult district. [applause] >> could you talk about your experience with the

campaign? anything that shock you? do you have any advice as to what service we will be prepared for. >> remind me to address both parts of your question because there is so many things i want to share. first of all, there were a lot of surprises riyal expect the unfair treatment and double standard that i was surprised how some conservative media got behind a man who call off did the grass roots in gag order and also the

cap-and-trade legislation that i believe is really destructive to our economy but also to lube justify getting behind the a candidates it is better to have a republican in their. so to be downright malicious where they would repeat the false accusations that thefo former delaware republican and leadership, i love saying that, exit polling shows that mike castle was declining in the polls in before my party's attack if

i was ahead and had two /1 advantage over the coveted independence because in delaware there is almost as many says there are republicans. when you have the two /1 advantage with the independence then you can wind. until we started the infighting if we have models i believe we have a republican in that seat. but there were some surprises i remembered "good morning america" wanted to talk to me and they had george stephanopoulos interviewing me.h no way. if i can handle bill maher i can handle george stephanopoulos. but hes, was very fair. even when he had on my opponents and i talk about

this and how my democraticc opponents anybody would say the winner served in a lame duck session you were sworn in the two immediately fill the v rest of the term vacated by joe biden. my opponent literally had no less than five public positions on how he would b devote on extending the bush tax cuts.ing so depending on the audience that is the position that heere, took i tried to get it out there but i would say it but it would never be picked up by the media and i was on "good morning america" and iras i was leaving to go to

the next event they had chris tunes on immediately after and george stephanopoulos says your point* accuses you of having no less than five positions on the tax cuts how would you vote? he said thank you for allowing me the opportunity but something to the effectcuts to set the record straight my record is and always has been a blah, blah, blah i could have kissed the tv screen and said i have your website on my smart phone and it says something different. [laughter] son george stephanopoulos of all people held him accountable.osit unfortunately that did not get a lot of play that of these days stephanopoulos was a democratic operative

the recognize since his position as a reporter he does it evenly and throws them to the otherth side as well so that is one of the surprise is that i have that where the unfair treatment came from. and a fair and balanced coverage cameca from people so you cannot have a prejudice about who is professional. whether that eight pke o.r..net, you never know who will choose to take that role of professional journalist seriously to use that to a vance a political agenda. but as they go into the 2012 election, we can expect unfair treatment and

misinformation that the information technology puts the power back into the hands of the people. we are not power less. yes we have to work harder and stay one step ahead but if we are vigilant we can defeat the power of the sound bite and a whole chapter about first of all,rom how the media and derives its power from a sound bite to and how we can disarm it. we can use that to ourtoni advantage if we are just as clever and creative and vigilant and just as unified do you hear in the democrats turning on each other the way?

did i address all three points?nd >> alas statement prompted me specifically how would you unified said tea party movement? >> first of all, what we have to do is be proud on the principles of which the party was founded there right now about 12 say an embarrassment but joe biden calling the tea party terrace or to say it iss causing the paralysis in congress, i think where that is coming from because said tea party and the middle

class movement has put the establishment on notice. politics will not be the same litigation as a this in a republican audience but we have a lot of democrats and a lot of independence and they are unified around the tu discontent with the career politicians that turn politicians into a favor factory and one thing that we can recognize if the election the reason why so many candidates won their primary is because theises messagein was resonating with the everyday voter. whether it was a rand paul or be zero or 818 people like never before and t articulating common-sense solutions. you do not navy ideally degree and what that

dennises it is proved the power of the message. the use of the principles on which our country was founde d than made our country great and still can. so how we can unify is the establishment part get over the bruise to the dose and recognize this the grass roots movement that if they would extend their expertise m and resources and knowledges go so we could come together, that would defeat obama but unfortunately that

is a big if. we have to be unified on one messaging cannot be pointing fingers at each other but i don't think there is any reason why we have to be embarrassed we have a winning message and in that chapter about thebi sound bite about how freedom is inscribed on the hard to of every individual why we year in for a better life for our children and why you want to be appreciated and valued you want your unique and individuality to beu, a celebrated by those around you in that is our freedom is inscribed in our part because in the free-market economy, you have the it freedom to take said god-given gift to go make a life for yourself unlike the

socialist or economist economy where there role is given to you. like a deny it snuffs out creativity and no room for thinking the boxsie in do what you are told. if you are content, a good for you.u don't try to make a better life for yourself. i articulate freedom is in inscribed on the part of every individual but our challenge is to articulate. if we don't resonate with the people, you don't abandon the message but weut frame it. i don't go to a 12 year-old to talk about why it is bad for the imf because my nephew may understand because he is march but most

12 year-old's don't get it. you just three framed the argument and that is what they need to do and if we can do at as a party i am cth optimistic that we can make sure that barack obama is a one-term president because. [applause]>> t i cannot think you enough for coming. it has been a great honor. >> thank you for having me and thank you for being patient with me being laid. >> she will sign your books at the front w where they are about being sold and she

will do signatures for all of do and we want to thank her again. [applause] >> at good luck. with all of your endeavors >> we are in in the capital city of kentucky which is frankfort which is not lexington in business 33 years. which is pretty outstanding for a small bookstore.

community center with readings, music, exchange committed the information and so we are the of the of downtown and the of of frankfurt. right across from the old capitol building so we have a lot of tourists coming through so we have a lot of folks coming through downtown san i put those who live here in this area the history books whether people reading? >> it is a political town so quiet you are reading those being born in kentucky we sell lot of material but also historic images of all frankfort. >> people are reading different main nowadays.

>> they are but they are still reading and i think there is a big difference in the way things will end up but i don't think we're there yet to. there is some resistance to the electronic readers especially in this area where people are a little bit older and don't travel as much. in the metro area i would be with my amazon kindle but right now we're trying to figure out how we will go. of those are excited when it comes out in that you book form but hopefully they give it as a gift. >> al has-- how has the changes been? >> mark twain said i want to die in kentucky because

everything happens 20 years later. the first couple of years of the depression have not been too bad but then state government started to falter. that hit a bit harder now is looking better now the chain's closing in the big box stores we hope that trickles our way. i have been here since i was 27 years old. and has spent 33 years and i am so excited openings of boxes it is like christmas every day of the year >> what is your book about?

>> the way medicine has changed as it has been transformed essentially. traditionally it has been a self policed and honor based and over the past 30 years, it has been taken over buy a range of market forces the medical education industry and a whole range of profit based businesses because they are self regulated. >> what is the root cause of

that? >> transformation? i am interested in the emergence of the pharmaceutical industry. lead to a company looked for the drugs they could market to as many people as possible for my old and chronic illnesses. when the pharmaceutical industry became so powerful, its influence over madison clinical triose oversight businesses the review board, people go realize exactly how profitable the industry has

been over the past 20 or 30 years. >> what is your experience with that transformation and the role currently as a dr.? >> i don't practice medicine. i originally trained in medicine to philosophy but the root of the book begins with a phone call and from a local psychiatrist who wanted to sit and and explained to me from the state licensing board with

the problem with the research study he was doing not knowing any better i said sure. and it went fine. but years later a contract research business with the for-profit clinical trial site started to do some digging to see who the researchers were and i saw who took the class was one of by researchers and i wondered exactly what he had done to take my class and it turns out the license was

suspended two years because he was responsible for the death and injury of 46 different patients a number of whom had created suicide but seriously mentally ill patients with chronic schizophrenia many suicidal who he cycled in and out of research studies for which they were not eligible keeping them in there it even after they started to deteriorate. one of them committed suicide in our teaching hospital. what struck me about this is his disciplinary file was not hard to find. all of his problems came up

on the first hit by yet despite the fact he had been judged responsible for the death and injury of 46 patients but could still do trials the fda had sanctioned him. the pharmaceutical industry was still willing to hire him and he is still working there now. this shocked me a researcher this dangerous and bad was still allowed to do clinical trials and pointed out how weak the oversight system is >> out of thin did you find that was the case they could candid days continue conducting research for privately contacted institutions from a university campus? >> of the reason he was able to do this is nobody was

watching and still nobody is watching. you have a state licensing boards but they are responsible for the research. you have low cole review boards that are supposed to oversee the research but now for-profit boards paid by the sponsors of they don't like the answer that they get then they go to another than another and another until they get the answer that they want. the fda which is supposed to be interested in protecting subjects of research only inspects 1% of triangle's. 90% go uninspected. for that reason i cannot answer that question.

because nobody is watching. >> what is your recommendation to improve the medical industry and in particular, the process? >> >> there needs to be a different system of oversight. it is a recipe for the problems that we see. we need to take drug testing out of the hands of the producers of the drug was to the pharmaceutical industry be responsible for testing theron drugs and publish change the research? they have a financial incentive for loving their products. but that incentive will always be there so i am in

favor of taking the drug testing of their hands into an independent body. >> thank you. >> weir at the 10 techtium book fares started 30 years ago from our founding members to are still involved today in the purpose is to provide grants to public schools and libraries to bring leaders together and a literary atmosphere and at last count we have 4,000 people who attended our event and then nationally known authors and

have a wonderful array like mickey mantle, our firm of all that, rosalynn carter, roger medpac, people who draw the crowds but focus on the kentucky authors. >> what role does the festival play in the community? >> it is a constitution one of the oldest in the country. that is the sole purpose i am the only paid staffer so we have a third a member board who governs and guides me. >> been here 30 years al has the readership chain store the demographic areas? >> it tends to be the baby -- baby boomer and above and younger with children's authors they bring their grand kids. we build
