years they've done a pretty good job. on the flipside, donald trump has done a good job of defining himself which has been pretty negative. so yes people have some concern with secretary clinton but at the end of the day. >> host: what do you think could take the difference for the campaign in florida, what would it be and where could that have been? >> guest: suburban women, moderate republicans. it will come down to two factors. how long is the turnout, and in the swing area from tampa to orlando to the east coast, there

is a lot of swing voters and i would bet we'd win florida in a very close race. because people say i can't trust donald trump, specifically women.let' >> host: escaped to patricia. you're on the air. >> caller: good morning and thank you for taking mike. i've listened to this whole. thing this morning and i must admit i am born and raised in the city of new york and i have all kinds of experience with wall street and how things are and so on and so on. both candidates represent money and more money.e the problem is that money trumps this whole cycle more than it's ever in my lifetime and i'm an older female. i am also one of these people that supported bernie sanders, and i will be honest with you, not a hillary supporter andt

never a trump supporter but on the other hand, i couldn't throw my vote away, so i had to votetr for her. but then again i still don't have the faith and heard that i should as a staunch democrat and i have been my entire life. the divide between myself and my family is phenomenal because they are republicans and they are younger than i am. but what i see in florida is devastation. there was a piece put out in the newspaper locally here last sunday the state of anxiety. people need jobs. do i have faith in her, no i don't, do i have faith in him, of course if he wants to pay the minimum wage or not pay you at all. so as a registered voter and a democrat in the state in florida, i have a very difficult

time even be leaving half of which have anything that comes out because it isn't true.ru >> host: hanging on the line. what do you say to patricia, how do you convince her that she should have faith in hillaryshe clinton? >> guest: let's say that i've had disagreements for many years with nominees philosophically but i was never really so concerned of how it would negatively affect the stock market and so forth.ke this is the first time in my entire life that i've ever been genuinely scared because of the candidacy of donald trump. maybe it's supposed to scare somebody like me. i think it scares most peoplene and the folks i talked to. i understand the hesitancy and i think you have to grant that secretary clinton has the rightt temperament and there is a

consistency of her own service.1 as an 11-year-old the runs to twitter and can't control his emotions we need somebody raised worldwide. i don't think that he is capable of that. secretary clinton offers enough consistency with donald trump only switching positions as we all know that will switch it multiple times in the same day. we will d go to flow in easti th liverpool ohio.

i've been wanting to do this and finally made it. i think that hillary should be in jail not running forthat president. i think people are very tired.

i think they said if the ultimate winner which is rare on anything these days. a lot of people have been left out of the economy. a donald trump is not. she talks and the generalities when he doesn't get sidetracked into his reading off the teleprompter but he has offered no specifics if you are going to spend or do something you haveve to show where it comes from. he's never done that.

it's all broad message he has sl been very consistent. >> randy is in amsterdam. >> she promised thousands and thousands of jobs but anyway, my question is if you are asking how the clinton campaign embraces america in the campaign trail, who is paying for that? >> guest: i could give you an educated guess it isn't by tax payers. for air force one and all of th other pieces that are paid by the democratic national committee traditionally.

it may come from another, but it's absolutely not paid by f taxpayers. >> a campaign event has to be reimbursed; is that correct? tj on twitter says when the vice presidential running mate, the senator from virginia was in florida only 30 people showed up to see him. he said that speaks volumes. there's other testimonials from people saying the crowds are in the thousands and tens of thousands per donald trump and a lot less for hillary clinton when they hold the respectivehi rallies in the state. >> i don't know of any rally unless there is a small kind of private meetings i've not heard that before and i'll. yes donald trump gets bigger crowds and frankly they are a

measurement but not a major measurement as he says. if they were withholding respect, bernie sanders would be the democratic nominee. it's a situation where there is different venues and different things once you are the nominee. i'm honestly not aware of the specifics of the callers questioning but i can tell youn' the crowd size like everything else is valuable and great adrenaline but doesn't necessarily guarantee success. >> host: pensacola florida, good morning. >> caller: yes, bernie would have been the nominee if theing. system wasn't. nobody respects a liar. >> host: before you go, are you still there? why do you think that he will win florida, but could you poin? to?

>> caller: nobody wants to vote for hillary. because >> host: >> guest: i do think that it will be very close. in the last 24 hours there have been two polls in florida. another showed hillary up bytwo four. the bottom line is it is very close in the margin of error. that's why florida is the ultimate swing state. i do have to say as i didstate. before, florida is at least three different states, south florida is more like the southeastsoutheast and central e northwest. pensacola has been a tough area for democrats where the caller lives and i think that he's correct when he says she isn't going to do great in the panhandle. i think that is true. just like south florida it is about margins in the reverse situation. so yes a lot of times the south florida has to make up from the

democratic perspective some of the vote tallies and the tal panhandle. >> host: it's been noted florida has become less white but tends to advantage democrats. when will you see that play out in florida?? >> guest: you certainly won't see it in the panhandle within a certain extent in central florida for those that are of puerto rican descent and that is around the greater orlandoca orange county area. a lot of people in thee in t hospitality business with disney world and universal and all that, you will see two or threee or four centered in the middle of the state with orlando as tht nucleus. >> host: what about cuban-americans were talking about before that our younger cuban-americans tending to be either no party affiliate or

democrat. what has been the impact of the decision to sell relations with cuba with them in florida?ons wh >> guest: it's helped democrats quite frankly because it is a global initiative, but i think it has to younger. that isn't good for republicans and.at that is a difficult trend.. you don't have to be an actuary to understand t some of the fols are getting older and people are

moving up. i am as an emigrant and a woman and a disabled person he doesn't stand for anything that ie and so i will definitely not bee voting for him that my fiancé has gone to the dark side and decided that as his candidate although he voted for obama twice.h in this election i'm definitely voting for clinton and she stands for a lot more than one imwhati am, so that's what i wao comment. >> host: before you go, when you make arguments to your fiancé about hillary clinton versus donald trump, why does he say he's going to vote for

mr. trump? >> caller: somewhere somehow he went from one side to another. i don't know if it's because he is a blue-collar white males, i believe that has been a big part of it. i understand where he's coming from because him and all his friends see the same thing so i do standup and i do talk about hillary's position and why i'm voting for her and it turns into this discussion that i find very difficult because when you're not talking with like-minded people, you know, you can try to say as much as you want. it's tough to convince anybody. >> host: why do you think democrats could lose that demographic of blue-collar white male workers?

is titled know if we are losing them as badly as they think wene may. a donald trump is running farrda behind the numbers. let me say with all due respect i want to thank her for her service and hanging in there but what's interesting it is a microcosm of she is experienci experiencing. everyone is showing america is getting more divided every day and it also shows sociologically that people are tending to socialize now much more with people that share their philosophy and don't socialize with people who don't agree. that is a phenomenon and that is not good for america but it's a fact now and she's kind of living it. >> host: it's good to

pennsylvania. good morning. guys. i was listening to the last caller and i disagree and i will tell you why. i think that hillary clintonr stands for the musliming brotherhood instead of the clinton foundation that has given many contributions to thei and also, the iran deal they say they were trying to pay bills that were $1.7 billion to the largest service organization in the world. that's going to isis and let's be realistic here. george soros, you talk about the biggest conflict of interest in the world, george soros owns 16 states and you wonder why people talk about a rigged election.

>> host: let's get a response to that. >> guest: i understand his dismay and i feel like i'm talking with all the respectfe they trump surrogate. i don't find everything to be factually correct and if they are referring to the money paid over that is money we owe to for a long time and it was a schedule set and that was the payment date to begin that. i know of no connection. that is frankly and all is right talking points for donald trump and his campaign. donald trump is trying hard to just not told the truth, he just doesn't and that's why he always complains about fact checkerstr but these are the extreme echo chamber that's been done for a long time so i don't fault the

caller for his opinion at all that is what makes america great is it's never been factuallyro proven to be correct. >> host: let me follow up. the "washington post" with the headline what was fake on the internet this time the voting machines. welcome to the third edition of what was fake on the internet for the deeply political means.d one post and everybody sees it. this is the one about george soros owning machines according to at least a dozen clinton already has the election bagged. last week it went viral and one petitioned congress to convene an emergency session. they say it's easy to see how this spun out of control because there is a mundane commission.

they have the specific ver firmo encourage them to go to the "washington post" to read more. [inaudible]she ha

to talk about what she has done over the years. what is it like to be a florida voter. there's not a lot of tv ads that i've seen a how important is that swing voter to the hillary clinton campaign. >> guest: he's calling from north florida that has been a republican bastion and he is indicative of a lot of people. d the fact that he is undecided

and is a male in north florida i think that shows donald trump hasn't closed the deal and it doesn't sound like he is going to. someone that is up for grabsat he's the type that makes ato difference because we are so close. i do think it's all about the turnout and predicting you may have half the votes in beforeika election day. someone like the gentle man that just cold as a late decider is critical.i will b >> host: seen here in florida. i will be voting for hillary. not the biggest fan but i will vote straight ticket. what do you think that means for marco rubio, the incumbent andin congressman patrick murphy?

>> guest: >> guest: i think that means hierything and that's why she is campaigning so hard in other states like patrick murphy who i spent a fair amount of the afternoon with yesterday before the debate. the poll shows he was down two and then for. he's down by a couple points or so. he's in the margin of error very close. patrick himself said many times he doesn't think that he could win florida if you were a clinton doesn't win. so of course it's not really far down it is a second shot. it's critical because he's a moderate democrat, he is progressive on a lot of social issues and frankly the florida is a microcosm of the rest of the united states in addition to being a kind of split personality as i talked about before. so the fact she's going to go

down ballot helps everybody because we are talking about not just the party or candidate but a philosophy and it's a philosophy i believe is more in sync with america than the american donald trump that is a dark and bleak place. >> host: are you concerned doe you think it was a mistake for the democratic senatorial campaign committee to not put more money behind patrick murphy and to take the money out of the state and senate race? >> guest: i am not privy to what their strategy is that speaking as a floridian, yes it was a mistake. >> host: marie, good morning. >> host: you are on the air. you have to listen through your phone, turn the television down. >> caller: the reason i'm calling, i am from seedy and i've been a citizen since 1993

by never vote for anybody but this year i'm a democrat, i'm not republican, i am independent. i'm making my mind up to vote for hillary clinton but what i see going on is so much money from the foundation, hillary clinton is a crock, a liar, she lies about everything and she should be in prison. she shouldn't be the president of the united states. for that i'm going to vote for trump. i'm voting for the will of the

people for our country. i have something to tell the american people, they have to vote with their conscience. hillary clinton is all talk. >> host: you said you are noty s voting?nald t >> caller: it's my first time i'm going to vote for a candidate, donald trump. this isn't about when income is about to the united states. the united states is done now. my son is in the army for a long time. he's been everywhere. but what's now.

>> host: i want a response to what he heard from you. >> guest: donald trump has obviously shown no interest in the minorities, totally no understanding of what it's like to grow up and not type of situation whether you're from haiti or puerto rico or cuba or anywhere else. he's had no life experiencespueo except maybe people he's higher than his company to be honest for lower echelon jobs, no minorities hold any significant position. hillary clinton does understand she came up from humble beginnings and frankly, i think she is long understood based on her history, based on her apple history whether it's fighting for children, the children's defense fund, voting for and fighting for minorities, her whole history is replete fighting for the type of folks

that's reflected in the last call. donald trump simply is not.er everybody has different reasons. a lot of america is angry because again secretary clinton has talked about that but unfortunately, we have seen a history of people voting against their own economic interest. obviously the caller may be doing that but maybe other superseding reasons. >> guest: good morning and thank you for taking my call. i have a two-part question. i am undecided and is leaning towards trump. a lot of friends in my area areg doing the same thing.ac some of us voted for barack obama the first time and started seeing that the talk he was talking he wasn't following trough so a lot of us laughed

the party. i guess my question is a two-part and i will need for you to help me because after the phone call i won't be able to get back to the meat of the substance and that is every time i hear someone proposing a question but never answeringd gi hillary clinton i need to know three accomplishments if jobs are not one of them that hillary clinton has done in the last 20 years of her life in policy because i wanted very badly to vote for her but i can't. the second thing that is driving me further away, the media is constantly running over her sins.

if you would deal with truth and to talk about the reality, i think that you would have a lott more people. >> guest: after the horrible attack she was at the forefront of trying to help the responders and be at the forefront of that entire issue. it was very important she was a senator and i think also quickly come the secretary of state aup couple of quick points, she was part of the equation for osama bin laden who president bush hae been hunting for for a long time and ultimately resulted in hise death. i would also say different peace treaties she brought about in the world and also raised theiol vision internationally across

the world about how america is perceived and that's not even speaking of all the different things she's done legislatively. people even forget when she was the first lady when she went to the other side of the world to talk about women's rights areth people's rights, to set certain things in motion. a lot of things that she has done her entire life are takent for granted now almost like history doesn't count for the last 30 or 40 years of work. >> host: what is the name of your town.t you sa wouldn't you say that is the most important and that donaldpi trump is winning because you

talk about the kids in inner cities she knew she was running when she was secretary of state and he is winning 55-40. couldn't we do that first and then worry about everything else? >> guest: as i said before, the stock market is better than it's been. the jobless rate is about 5% which is historically pretty low and on the negative side there's still people left out of the economy. a loa lot of that is changing technology. donald trump says i want to take america and make it great again. the factories are gone, that is a terrible thing and it'ss affected everybody, but it's also the technology that's doint

that and donald trump talks in broad soundbites but never offer specifics. if you go on the website it details a couple dozen issues with great specificity. when she talked about providing help for college kids, she specifically talked about howx there would be a tax increase for the couple%. donald trump just says i'm going to make it great again. honestly he's turned it into a game show or reality show and that's fine for him and his source of candidacy but that isn't fine for america. >> caller: senator sanders supporters seem to be so disenfranchised in the party.

he ran for fundraising purposes only.li i would like to hear his comments. thank you about them being disenfranchised from the democrats. >> guest: i don't think that is true. i understand the concern but i don't think it's true. i think that he hasn't motivated as much by politics he wouldn't be on the trail for hillary clinton if he didn't believe it. second as someone at the convention, we put out the most progressive democratic platform in the history of the party and that is due to the input of the standards folks and all those supporters. there is no question about that. i don't think that the ideas have been left behind, but quite

the opposite and the most obvious one was the college tuition which is critical not only for kids but for futures and families and frankly the economy. it generates much more to the economy. >> host: when you look at the results from 2012 in florida and you break it down by county and you can see where the blue county's as we said before very tight race, president obama won with 75,000 more votes for thee 29 electoral votes why when it comes to the corridor acrossssi4 from tampa to orlando c. one counties like hillsborough and osceola in orange county dot could that change and where do you think it could change? >> it won't change from south to north florida you are correct in would havthat would have to chan

central florida. to, a it is a key swing area. osceola is the adjoining county to orange county which is orlando which we just spoke about. i think in certain places in central florida, it could flip like hillsborough county perhaps handed a place like osceola county it's more of a democratic county that's turned demographically and continues to do so and there it will be almost like southport as to the question of turnout. but it's a dead heat race in the entire country and we are more than 10% of the electoral vote. >> host: that's why we are talking to you in florida today. thank you for your time, appreciate it. >> guest: thank you. >> host: there are 29 electoral votes up for grabs in florida.

it's been a swing state over thn years voting for the winning candidate all but one time since 1964.al joining us from miami this morning to talk about the chances in the state and that strategy there is the republican party chair for the pinellas county. let's begin with the state of florida and whether or not donald trump absolutely has to have it. do you believe that is true? >> caller: good morning and thank you for having me.ou absolutely. there's a lot on the line here in florida. it's the number one swing state in the country and donald trump needs florida, north carolina, ohio, nevada. we know all the states that are vital to the successful and certainly florida is at the top of the list. >> host: i said ivar in miami that you're in tampa. thank you for joining us.

where in florida do you think that he will do well? where will it happen and what could be the determining factor demographically or otherwise? >> guest: we always talk about the ice for corridor which is the anchor. certainly hillary clinton has a strong hold in south florida, donald trump and republicans in any statewide race have a strong hold in north florida, the pri for corridor is the one that always decides the statewide elections so when we look at places like pinellas county, we have a third republicans, for democrats in the third independent and over the lastth two years, we've finally caught up with the democrats in voter registration so this is a numbeo one swing county in the state. hillsborough county again

another swing state and the list goes on and on. >> host: and what type of voter is going to determine if?e >> guest: we've got this middle class white voters certainly leaning towards donald trump but even more importantly, the enthusiasm for hillary clinton from some of these othee demographics, african-americans, hispanics, the trends right now in the race are showing the enthusiasm is simply not there so with 12 days to go for us in the republican party our efforts right now or get out the vote so whether it is female, male, hispanics, we are speaking tonte the entire electorate and again that is what it's going to take to win this race. >> host: as you said the recent poll showed donald trump

is up one point but when you by look at the politics averages hillary clinton is up nearly two points. is this -- if this is tightening, tell us why. donald trump and hillary clinton have been tied for several weeks now and what we are seeing iss simply this, he represents ato voice that is broken in washington, d.c.. and hillary clinton represents the actual broken system in washington, d.c.. so i think it is becoming more about these individualssrepu represent versus republicans and democrats. we are seeing some democrats that might be coming over to vote for donald trump and vice versa.th with 12 days left going through

this very negative personal campaign, we are now at the point folks are looking at donald trump as someone that represents a change. hillary clinton represents somewhat of the same. we have eight years of obama policy. she's going to continue that but donald trump certainly represents the changed election and that's why he won the nomination and bernie sanders one to 22 states against hillary clinton in the primary. if this is a changed election, donald trump is good to be the nexnext president of the united states. >> host: is he spending enoughne money in the state of florida? is he spending enough in florida? hillary clinton has been outstanding and we have a tight race.

donald trump is getting on the campaign trail. he visited about six cities in the state earlier this week and he was getting 20,000 people in attendance at these rallies. to me it shows there is ather movement here on the republican side of that we haven' that we d decades if ever, so he is going face to fac face the door to do. we are certainly going face to face and door to door in our precincts and our county. we have an aggressive get out the vote campaign right now that is all grassroots. so certainly she is on tv spending a lot of money but ultimately it is going to be determined on the ground and certainly the way that we see the intensity, he has an advantage right now the momentum is beginning to go thisdo you ar

direction. >> host: do you agree that the system is rigged? >> guest: i will say and it comes to our supervisor, she's one of the best in the state. i had 100% confidence she is going to have a 100% flawless election. we have a secretary of state also republican conducting these in florida. i have 100% confidence in the ability that he's able to do as well. so i talk about the mainstream media. the mainstream media there is no defining that. when you have an hour of coverage and 55 minutes is covered on donald trump and things that happened ten, 12, 20 years ago and the minutes are discussed on hillary clinton and

the e-mails and the correctness there's a problem and i think the american people are seeing through that and ultimately then are going to say do we want to change or more of the same and i think the intensity that we are seeing people see donald trump as the next president of the united states. >> host: if she wins on election day should donald trump and his supporters accept thegus results?ecause, >> guest: yes and i say that because despite what has been said certainly if there are no serious indications of legitimate voter fraud, then there is no reason why it shouldn't be accepted either byi donald trump or hillary clintonm

good morning. go ahead. are you with us? don't know what happened. good morning. thank you for c-span and to your guest i don't mean any of this personally but i am a democrat and i'm proud to be a democrat and what i see is that donald trump is giving a populist message about the trade, bringing the job back. i heard him talking about drinking water quality pollution, things like that and those are typically democratic issues.. so i feel like over the past 30 years a lot of the people have been essentially misled.

they are littered with free enterprise privatization and they have a profit motive. republicans need to know their party voted against equal pay, the violence against women act, the veterans jobs the. they voted primarily for the trade bill. so i just feel like they were really democrat the democratic party wasn't able to bring them in and that is the fault of the democratic party. >> host: i want to stop there and have him respond. >> guest: i'm not sure what the question is but it is veryus

difficult for republicans to get some of their initiatives passeg in washington. certainly the last couple of years everyone says they've been obstructionist with president obama. we have a specific agenda and principal with focuprinciple thd government, less taxes, more personal freedom. they found it very difficult to work with the president simply does not want to listen to or even remotely compromise with the republican congress but again i think that as we get towards the end of this election this country needs a fresh vision and we need to change the broken system that we have been

witnessing for a very long time. there are millions of people that have lost their jobs and millions of people that haves seen their industries brought overseas and this is theect thas led to donald disconnect that has led to donald trump being successful in the republican primary and to get to a point where he is onins the cusp of winning the election because people are tired of what they are seeing and what is going on in washington.ce that goes for both sides. but in my opinion, the policies of the republican party arehe what's best for the american people and we need new leadership in washington, d.c.. >> host: the political story posted yesterday, florida spirals away from donald trump but then with the ground game a low turnout may be his only hope in the state. a memo that was put together by

the vice president of the political operations for the associated industries of florida business and he sent it to the conservative leading members and he wrote the lead is what is in the margin of error and we would suggest 3% isn't as close as it. may seem estimating a turnout of 71%. or as many as 9.2 million overall. if that happens, the overall vote lead could end up being 275,000. this is an all reality a landslide. based o on the consistent failun to improve his standing with nonwhite voters 50 and female it seems obvious that his only hope left in florida is a low turnout. can you speak to that?gues >> guest: i read that article just yesterday and i respectively disagree. what we are seeing right now is

the early voting this week. we have been sending our m absentee ballots for more than two weeks and what we are seeing is a tight race. even more importantly than that we have seen a bloomberg poll 50% of republicans say they are going to vote on election day so this is very similar to what we experienced in pinellas county for the congressional district 13 where david jolly went up against alex sink. when those were calculated that evening, alex sink was up three percentage points but republicans won back on election day and i think we are going to see that. i also believe this is going to be a high turnout that's whatt the trend is showing right now but here is the thing to remember we talked about this trump vote and there's something very valid to that. there were 150,000 new

registered voters that voted in the preference primary in marchf 150,000, many of them have never voted before. i am a small-business owner. i have a couple employees to fit into that. in their 50s, they never voted before but they registered to specifically vote for donald trump and i think that hitting those is something that it's impossible for these to capture so that combined with the intensity and less enthusiasm in the state in florida with the key demographics that she is relying on how the african-american communities, hispanic communities, this is set up very well for donaldow trump. there is a high intensity that i think a lot of people might want to say that's not occurring but i can tell you being on the ground it's not only happening in israel that it's going to be the difference.s go t >> host: let's go to miami.

>> caller: good morning. the reason i'm calling isders because bernie sanders is the one that people should nominate. setaudible] and now just a guy don't think that this will ever happen.boutr what about bernie sanders supporters not going over to hillary clinton, what is donald

trump's message to them? >> guest: this is a changed election would go back to the primary.uc bernie sanders struck a chord with millions of americans across the country. millions of young americans across the country particularlya millennialist.ls the problem is he is a self-described socialist and i personally and i know the republican party and millions of americans take issue with that and it is against what i believe and what my principles are, so i do believe that there is aeen se mistrust between some of these supporters and hillary clinton. they are having a difficult time accepting the fact that she is there nominee and i know i heard the caller speak about college

costs and how that is going to be paid for and i believe undern her plan she's trying to have that paid for. my question is where is that money coming from here we are $20 trillion in debt and we are going to raise taxes on the rich, redistribute that to pay for college education and i don't believe that this country is about to accept any hint of socialism or wealth redistribution. that isn't what this country is about wha or was founded on. so i think when we look at these individual states i think the individual states need to take that issue by the horns with their legislature and governorge and fix their systems. but back to bernie sanderscult m supporters, of course they are having a difficult time trusting hillary clinton and a difficult

time going to the polls and voting for her. the more e-mails that come out into the more wiki weeks of this proof and putting that she is part of the broken system and has been for more than 30 years and they are not comfortable with it and certainly republicans across this country and independence are not comfortable. >> host: mike in kentucky .. host: yes, we can hear you. caller: hillary clinton keeps talking about contractors not getting paid. i think we need to come back as republicans or donald and dispute that. all the jobs he has created in .lorida, he made 1600 jobs

all the people were getting wages. >> >> they don't need to raise minimum wage. as a contractor you are put out of business because what used to sell for 70,000 is now 150,000 because i have to pay $15 an hour minimum wage. >> you have heard from your candidate he would raise the minimum wage as well.atwa >> that's what i am saying that he will reduce taxesy. for the economy inc's will want to stay in the country. >> host: we will be that there. what about his impact, nick

diceglie? what impact does that have on the state of florida economically greg. >> it is a positive impact.kes n it just takes one disgruntled employee to complain about donald trump for his business and hillary's campaign takes that one individual to make millions of dollars worth of tv commercials that he is a responsible business owner but here's the reality. donald trump creates jobs and under governor rick scott we have created millions and millions of new jobs. to do fantastic to get other corporations to set a shop because there is a low tax burden on businesses we have no personal income tax in the state of florida with a

strong republican leadershipr, by scott -- governor rick scott. and this is what it will take to turn our economy around one donald trump is very much in line with the philosophy it is now to corporate taxes that is why they are taking the shops overseas.e comi so when companies are coming to the state of florida it is a business friendly environment and over many decades has created jobs to take care of family size and small business owner as wellwhai and that is what this wiuntry is about.

whether a billion dollar corporation or small business, you are creating jobs giving them tried to work that is the fabric of america. they take pride in take care of their families and work hard. and donald trump continues to that of a positive way. that is why he is selling attractive but he is successful but governor mike pence was and is a great american and running with donald trump. and surrounding himself with

to create jobs and understands what it will take to turn the economy around. >> host: back-to-back phone calls from florida and according. >> caller: could morning. i and they registered independent of voting early. to the gentleman's point, nick diceglie diceglie, governor scott wasim very skeptical of him i am now grateful he is our governor has done a great job he could have some improvements on the businesses there is stille lot of money at the top to trickle-down to the people but overall i think we're of the right track here in florida. he is a very good speaker. that is it. trump is not perfect but trump and his supportersportersh could support the next president but this is why i

am voting for him.ext to be spent with growth for the country we don't want that. / or i am going. >> host: palm beach guarded go-ahead. >> caller: i have a hypothetical for the gentleman. if with this election has a split that is so close that neither side has enough electoral votes and it goes to the house of representatives, what does he think one? >> guest: great question. is difficult to deal with hypothetical my hope and

confidence with the house it would focus on uniting the country because obviously with a split like that is something we have never seen before. the closest is in 2000 with a recount here in florida which simply was dealing with a divided nation. the focus at that point would be to make sure that the process is done in an open manner obviously within the parameters of the constitution. but again dealing with hypothetical, i would hope that point, and i have confidence the house of representatives would do theltit right thing and ultimately unite the american people under those circumstances. >> host: for lauderdale good morning. >> caller: good morning went to preface my comment i have been watching the show

since i am 19 i am 51 now i have only been compelled to call twice. this is number two. as a representative from my county real little anxious because as a registered independent i like to vote according to the issue is f and who better represents for me. this ge i hear ricans say that donald trump is the person who will champion all these causes for people who haven't until he comes along. also looking at reports with the economy in florida to show that every property he has built whether they are

built valued at $29 million so that the taxes that he paid are equivalent to the property of four or $5 million. he never pays poll taxes -- full taxes but with the themp university lawsuit with the university fifth at the state attorney-general i and independent. to i also think your character one plays a part no he is a republican. but these character issues have then so much more eliminated that people have

to pay attention to character this time around. >> we have to flawed candidates in this race. if we point out all the flaws of trump and clinton but this election is about o not just the last eight years but before that. people feel a disconnection with their representation in washington d.c.. so when the great recession occurred to thousand eight millions of people lost their jobs and their homes. over the last eight years, many are still unemployed were having a difficult time trying to put food on the table for their families.nly have and while i have been disappointed this election does not focus on policy or c a positive vision for the country, people feel the

disconnect which leads them to individual like donald trump. former factory workers like p ohio, and michigan those in the midwest, at generations of american workers working for one particular factory or company, american company over the last eight years have moved overseas. people without jobs, i would love to talk about more policy because even in that conversation donald trump would be overshadowing anything that hillary clinton has proposed. hillary clinton is just an extension of the broken system and failed policies of the obama. down to the when it gets down to the core and what the two candidates represent, one is changed one takes the

country in a different direction because americans deserve it or more of the same has been proven it does not work. instead to talk about hillary and donald trump as a change to election. >> host: dallas texas. >> caller: i like donald trump i am a democrat i like some of the things that he says but i have been of the earth for a little while by hear politicians say all kinds of stuff. one obamacare two office they said he doesn't have experience. compared to donald trump he has no political experienceot hv but i am willing to except that. everytime he speaks he says i will do this or that to. but there are no facts.en?

>> host: what will you do? >> i am undecided. i know the baggage that hillary has but i am willing to except that because she gives me fax to say that this might work. >> host: so what about the lack of specifics from mr. trump quick. >> white said mentioned earlier i love policy, above to hear more policy from him because he is not a career politician coming from the business sector as a very successful businessman, entertainer, wh at he represents is somebody the represents the broken system broke to make the difficult decisions cannot be part of the system tong tell you one election day

this is a bible do then ultimately he gets elected and then not fulfill anything that he says what he will do. so that is where the attraction is for someone like the donald trump.t. what of americans are struggling with that. there is policy there but what has that experience got us in the last eight years? we need a change in this country and we needed new leader, somebody with some strength to take on the broken system to show strength abroad and injectnew somebody -- something new into the political system. we saw the very same thing in great britain.en

people are tired of the same old broken policies with leaders in particular that is what donald trump represents and there is a reason why people like these callers are undecided or and democrats voting for trump for independence because deep down, deep down the american country and people go that changes in order it is about time to change what we have seen because it is not working. >> host: next caller. >> caller: good morning. oh lot of older peoplell realize after world war to the people of germany said they had no idea what was going on with hitler. they had a propagandath machine with the media the same thing over here.oth they need both sides of the story.

he will never wake up over here to have no idea about the wikileaks. one bad thing after another. we just get one side of the story nubble sides. >> next caller go ahead. >> caller: i am from jacksonville. i have seen a lot that is going on in this country. they blame obama from everything when he came in 2008 he gave away the first part but then they blame obama for everything. he had nothing to do with it but people are blaming him for everything but if it wasn't for him with his knowledge and his education

and wisdom they would be in a bad mess today but donald trump is one of the peoplehost: better not a part of the 99% >> host: he is part of the 1%. >> yes he is.yone and the 1% are also people t who more than likely create jobs, have businesses, they're able to create opportunities. that is what the 1% does. is frs it is frustrating to hear how we have broken down people into certain categories whether it is 1%. we're all americans we're in this together.

the 1% has a role in this country just like everybody else. finger-pointing as far as finger-pointing, the opposition party always points blame and finger-pointing to whoever is in the white house. i remember when the democrats with nancy pelosi pointing fingers at george bush. the list goes on. this is politics that is our works. but to point fingers at the '01 percent is not fair. america and is the greatest country in the world to create opportunity for people and if they are lucky enough and work hard enough to get there and that is the duty of this country. >> host: another battleground state pennsylvania. >> caller: good morning. i am an undecided voter. independent i was undecided

up until one month ago. i am retired military my wife had top-secret clapped -- had top-secret clearancer and tell me about the government classified computer network but what hillary has done has broken trash national defence laws and in 1994 her husband bill clinton signed mandatory use of the system to all classified materials matter what department. with the e-mail scandal, that technically is treason.at wor i know people throw the word around but if you look at the heart of everything that is exactly what it is. >> host: is that we

decided to vote for donald trump one month ago quick. >> i don't know about trump but i know i am not voting for hillary. >> why? >> he is what this country needs. she is a businessman. key is an outsider. but with him picking everybody either side democratic republicans that is what i am on the fence with. if he wants to win, he basically needs to side with the republicans instead of arguing with them. >> host: we will take that point what about the interparty fighting greg.

>> it's not good. elect going through this election cycle, really the goal for republicans is to be united. here in the state of florida under our chairman leadership, we have been a united party for donald ceump. there has been some frustration with the leadership in washington d.c. with some of the thingsna that donald trump has said and done 10 oral levin years ago but ultimately we need to get behind our candidates.t is happening only here in the state of florida with the party we have been behind jensen state number one but what is going on in washington d.c.een is somewhat disappointing when it comes to the topic

the unit -- unity and hopefully this is not going to have a negative impact of the question and what will happen on november 9th to begin the healing process to have a fractured party at any time is not good for the future and it does impact some of the races and we are here in the business of electing republicans to be a united party in that effort is a top priority. >> host: we will be fit their. the republican chair of the flo county and florida, a nick diceglie thanks for being part of our series this morning

>> now have the pleasure to introduce the of moderator for the next and final panel. new york times best selling author and add john to professor and 80v commentator and public speaker. they have been nominated for a literary award of they consider suicide run the library is not enough also the work from fiction in 2013.

he attended law school with president barack obama serving in the white house for a he was once the highest-ranking openly gay person in the white house has also helped to organize to participate in the first-ever meeting between a sitting president and members of the ltte community and has been actively involved and progressive causes and is the veteran including two presidential campaigns in one of the top instructors at american university in washington. also cnbc contributor and also a columnist. >> just one more thing that i will say because it is important and a member of the black justice coalition

focusing all across the world to deliver it landmark speech to the march on washington and davis during speech about the epidemic over soldier field and now will turn over to him as we jump-start the next panel. [applause] >> we will discuss race in america and we will do this so little bit different to have answers that our concise for opportunity for conversations with the audience as well. i want to begin, just as a brief synopsis so mary

frances we have 100 days left in the administration then we will have president trump or president clinton. the question this panel is focused on is what should be the agenda for the next president in terms the issue of race and social justice? >> start by buying all 12 of my books. [laughter] >> then you can read my entire file. [laughter] if you missed before then read my books. [laughter] but seriously, when he was

talking it made me sad because he was so hopeful. one of the books that i read that was called $5 and a pork chops and which over the corruption of american democracy that my democratic friends said they should not publishes about the people who say they have been waiting for politicians to do what they said they will do when they run for election. they come around each year to turn out for every election and make these promises. ms. williams said they never do with a sable going to do they come around here to say they will do this sort do that put a roof on the school but they never do some done even try.

but it least every year after they tell me to vote the certain numbers they give me $5 and the pork chops and which so i get that if nothing else. [laughter] but what i think obama has and i have to explain that you can get something done that protesters are the essential ingredient of politics. and i think when we focus just on politics after obama or clinton, if we are not prepared and all we are prepared to do is recite the ricans seapower without demand and then we don't

demand. now with the polarization in this country in a long time in my view they will have to try to overcome that to get policy done. the reason why it has happened, it he has not been able to figure out a way to do about the reds stayed or blue states that everybody thought was so hopeful. paula the polarization obama has been very effective to try to balance some issues of race like shootings and the role of the police. he has been less effective in my view to balance other issues like immigration or elegy bt issues because my position is all of those

disaffected people will remain disaffected. . . polarization is going to be the main problem. obamacare needs to be a. it's got to be fixed if it's
