i was all for the -- the one thing i won't do is lose the enthusiasm of the 1994 lindsey graham. the older im, the more i respect -- the older im, the more i respect newt. trying to find a way to accommodate big change in a much more practical way. realizing the other side exists. >> how do you compromise and then hold to your core convictions? sen. graham: anybody who is married or goes to church understands this. when you have a big problem like social security about to fall apart, you are running out of money, alan greenspan says you have to do the following to save it.

you muster the courage to tell the people in your party, we have to give some here. the other people have to do the same. the key is to pick the issues that affect us all. i love a good fight. there are certain things we have to get right. 80 million baby boomers are going to retire in mass. somebody has to do something like simpson bowles. i have been dealing with this for 10 years. i am the most qualified person running for president dealing with this issue. for me to get border security i have to deal with the democrats rationally. we will not get everything we want without dealing with the democrats. the democrats want some things, too. they want to give a rational solution to the 11 million.

nobody wants felons to stay. the idea that non-felons can stay here. that is how you get bipartisanship. >> donald trump is now part of this debate on immigration. what is your impression of him? sen. graham: he is a complicated guy. i just went to a golf tournament today. it was at one of his golf clubs. what he is saying about illegal immigrants as a group is not really about immigration. it is about how we view people. i have been dealing with this for 10 years now. the dreamers, these are kids who came into our country with their parents as young kids. the only place to know -- they

know to go is where they have been raised. the dreamers are illegal. their parents have had a couple of kids, maybe one or two, maybe more, who are legal. what trump does not understand, when you say most illegal immigrants are racists and drug dealers -- ratepists and drug dealers, you are telling the younger brother and sister that their brother or sister, their mom or dad, is a drug dealer or a rapist nobody is going to be able to respond to that message without being offended. if you are a decent person at all, you would be offended by this characterization. this is a defining moment. no longer about illegal immigration.

it is about do we as republicans buy into that view of these people? i do not. most are hard-working, decent people, trying to make a good life, trying to make order out of chaos. some are bad, but most are good. if we do not fix this as a party, we will never do achieve the potential, i think we will lose the 2016 election, and we probably should. click's the role of the -- >> the role of the federal government is what? sen. graham: to defend the nation is the primary role. when the first slice is the defense department, the primary job of the federal government is to defend the nation. the primary job of the president

is to be commander-in-chief. we will be spending about 2.3% of gdp on defense. if i am president, i will fix that. if we do not do something like simpson bowles, we become greece. the primary role is to defend the nation. social security is a federal government program. half of today's seniors would be in poverty without a social security check. i'm 60, i do not have any kids, i am not married. when i was 22,/ . the primary role is to bring us together, to do the big things that affect us all.

most people are one car wreck a way for meeting somebody to help them. it is too large unsustainable. it does too many things poorly. >> the big argument over infrastructure, $18 trillion debt, a defense budget that needs to be increased. is there a way to -- sen. graham: people drive further on a gallon of gas. the gas taxes are not generating enough revenue. we have to fix the trust fund. corporate earnings are parked overseas. in american-owned company doing business in germany, we require

35%. i would take the revenue to put in the trust fund to get it started again. the real problem for the country, not the $18 trillion debt. what makes us greece, the 80 million baby boomers, of which i am one. by 2031, all of the taxes will pay medicaid, medicare, social security, and the interest on the debt. eliminate deductions. that is the architecture of simpson bowles. i would dust off simpson bowles, change it around a bit. and get our long-term debt straight. $70 trillion of unfunded liability exists today.

the only way to fix this is bipartisan, for people younger to work a little longer. if you make over $200,000 a year in retirement, you get a $100 a month subsidy. i woul>> how can you beat hillary clinton? sen. graham: her definition of flat broke and mine are a bit different. she is a good person, but she has lost her way. she wants power too much. it is one of the things the clintons do. let's win the next election.

if you are looking for something new, she does not represent it. she is one of the architects of our failed foreign policy. her and bill sold obamacare better than obama did. if you are looking for real change in this country, something different than the last eight years, she is your worst choice. if you are looking for someone who will tell their own party they are wrong at times and who has walked in the shoes of the average american, i am your best choice. >> if you have nothing to do what do you enjoy doing outgo sen. graham: -- what do you enjoy doing? sen. graham: sleeping as late as i can. play golf with people i went to high school with. come home, take a nap, go to a movie and dinner. really simple stuff. i love to hunt, i love to go to

movies. i love to play golf. i am not very good at it and i moist trying to get better. >> -- and i am always trying to get better. next how do you get better yet go -- >> how do you get better? sen. graham: it is a chance to get outside, spend time with people you like. it is just a great game. the thing i like most are the people i am the closest to. a relaxing day is being around the people i care about. >> what were you like in high school? sen. graham: i was a guy always in trouble. i was funny. i played football at 110 pounds. people accepted me. my mouth was bigger than my

ability to play football. i really enjoyed high school. you do not have to be the best to be part of something. i contributed in my own way. my coaches and teachers affected me to this day. they saw things in me i did not see in myself. if you have an as a young person, a supportive network you are lucky. even though i lost my parents early on, i was a lucky guy. what happens if you don't have a family? what happens if there is no one in your life telling you i love you? what happens if there is no one in your life saying, you are really smart? that bothers me a lot. i feel so lucky. what can i do as president to change that? >> who was part of the lindsey graham team? who are the type of people you

surround yourself with if you are president? sen. graham: i have a really good network of former military officers and current military officers. i listen to people who have been on the ground and have proven their worth. when it comes to domestic policy, i have been a very hands-on heavily involved senator. i've been part of every gang to fix illegal immigration. at the end of the day, the people i talked to -- talk to write before i make the decision are the people who know me the best and will tell me i am full of it would nobody else will. if you are a political leader, you need some friends who were not intimidated by telling you you're full of it.

i have got them in abundance. >> you think you can win this thing. sen. graham: sure. i am not doing this for my health. i think the world is in a bad spot. it would not take that much. the mideast is yearning for an american leader. the bad guys are not 10 feet tall. here is obama's biggest mistake. he does not have personal relationships with the people in this town who can make a difference. i know almost everybody in this town who can make a difference. i like them and i think generally, they like me. the skill set is exactly what we need. someone who has learned the hard way. understands what makes the military work, not put them in a bad spot.

if we do not lead, no one else will who is good. when it comes to being the president of the united states, the best thing you can do for the country is bring people together, to do things they did not think they could do, but they need to do. i have a pretty good track record of working with democrats on big thanks. sen. graham: senator lindsey graham, thank you for your time. >> tonight, artist and journalist molly crabapple on her use of drawings to tell investigative stories from around the world. >> gang affiliation might be reading a book by a black panther, or having a tattoo. around the country, you can land in solitary for your art, your

beliefs, your sexual orientation, or your friends. i go around with a sketchbook and i draw. it is also to build rapport with people. they often -- when you draw, it is a vulnerable thing. they can see exactly what you are doing. it is more of an interchange. most people are pretty delighted to be drawn. >> tonight at 8:00 eastern and pacific. >> last thursday, hillary clinton spoke at a town hall meeting in new hampshire. she talked about a range of economic issues, including equal

pay for equal work. ms. clinton: one area for strong growth we have to pay more attention to is small business. small business creates 60% of the jobs in america. it has been really difficult for small businesses in the last decade in ways that you can all imagine. regulations, taxes, and since the great recession, not enough access to capital to be able to start a business. i want to be the small business president. my dad was a small businessmen and i know what his hard work gave to us. he gave us a good middle-class lifestyle and he worked hard for it. we were able to realize what is a basic bargain in america. you work hard, you get your reward. you get to do better.

you really do hope that your children will do even better than you. that is what we have to restore. of course a lot of things we need to do color raise the minimum wage, enforce laws like over time -- we need to do, raise the minimum wage, enforce laws like over time, equal pay for equal work. [applause] i am quick to say, this is not just a women's issue. this is a family issue and an economic issue. if people are not being paid fairly, that hurts everybody. it hurts the small business in town that does not get enough customers. people cannot afford what they are selling. when i talk about equal pay for equal work, i really mean that

is a growth strategy as well as a fairness strategy. the more we equalize what people are paid, according to their own effort, the better off we will all be. on long-term strategy, we have to make investments that will grow our economy and research and development and infrastructure. it is beyond my understanding that we are having a partisan battle in congress over funding infrastructure. we are in a global competition. other countries are investing in their infrastructure. i do not mean just our physical infrastructure, as important as that is. i also mean our virtual infrastructure. we need to get affordable quality broadband to every place in this country, just as we got electricity to every place in this country at an earlier time. >> that was a portion of hillary

clinton's town hall meeting. you can see the entire event tonight at 12:40 a.m. eastern on c-span or any time online. on the next washington journal politico correspondent on the lobbying efforts. the recent prison escape of the mexican drug lord and its impact on mexico's fight against organized crime. david leventhal on the latest round of contribution reports. we take your calls and you can join the conversation at facebook and twitter. washington journal live at 7:00 eastern on c-span.

we returned to c-span's road to the white house coverage with a profile interview with john kasich. he is expected to announce his intention to join the crowded republican field after serving as governor since 2011. this is 35 minutes. >> governor john kasich, governor of ohio, we have had eight presidents from ohio. why do you want to be the ninth? >> i have not made the decision yet, so we will have to wait and see. if i decide to move forward, it would be because i have the experience and the skills and the record to show that i can tackle this very tough job. >> what makes a good president? >> somebody who has good instincts, somebody you can gather a good team around them

and somebody who really wants the job in order to lift the country. i was doing an interview and somebody was talking about electability. we are not picking a high school president. we are talking about capability and maybe electability is part of it, but we always say we are at a crosswords -- crossroads. we need somebody to restore the spirit of our country and grow this economy and rebuild our defenses. there are a lot of things that need to be done, but that person has to of had a record, they have to have the ability to put a team together. they have to have a vision. i think they have to have the strength to move forward. if you are going to worry about

whether people will cheer you or love everything you do, you cannot operate that way. sometimes leaders, all leaders sometimes they have to walk a lonely road. you could not get too far ahead of the people because you will lose touch. but you also cannot be in the crowd. steve: for a few months, you were a candidate that can 1999. what did you learn? gov. kasich: i never became a candidate. i had an exploratory committee. i learned that it is really hard. you do not have that much experience as an executive. steve: you are not born in ohio. you are from pennsylvania. talk about your mom and dad. gov. kasich: my mom -- my dad carried mail on his back.

my mother barely spoke english. my mother was very opinionated and intelligent, but not highly educated. had she been able to get the education combined with her intellect and her strong opinions and intuitiveness, she would have been a superstar. she did not have the education. she had a profound influence on my life. steve: your parents were democrats, correct? gov. kasich: my father was always a democrat. my mother became a republican later in life. most of the town was democrat. steve: best advice your parents ever gave you? gov. kasich: think big. i have always thought pretty

big. when i see something i want to do. none of us can ever get there alone. i have had people who have interceded then enablers -- been enablers to me, allowed me to reach a lot of the goals i have set. you cannot do it, you cannot reach those big goals unless you have people who help you. you have a team or a mentor. i have been fortunate, the lord has been good to me and has provided a lot of people to help me navigate and climb a whole bunch of mountains. steve: why ohio state university? gov. kasich: i wanted to get out of pennsylvania and strikeout on my own. i fell in love with the campus and it sounded like a great place and it turned out to be pivotal for me and my life.

steve: you are 18 years old and you meet with the president of the university. gov. kasich: i just bugged them unless -- until they let me in. he was going to go the next day and see president nixon. i said, why don't i go with you? i wrote a letter in the president invited me to the white house. steve: you are 18 years old. you have to remember everything that happened. gov. kasich: i remember being outside the oval office and them telling me i would get five minutes. i remember walking in and being introduced and we sat at his desk. there are situations that can be daunting, we are not easy to

intimidate. it was really cool to be there. i also saw him again personally in 1987 and that was an interesting meeting with him than. -- with him then. it was a cool opportunity. it was a long time ago, steve. it did not happen last week and i did not write a journal about it. i took advantage of that meeting to accomplish other things. steve: do you remember what you talked about? gov. kasich: not really. what i will tell you is i think the reason why i was invited, he wanted to know what was going on on college campuses. he wanted to know -- as i think back on it, i think it was the year after kent state and he wanted to hear what was going on

out there. he asked me a few questions about that. that was 1970, 45 years ago. i remember when i got a phone call when i got on the little league team. it was a remarkable opportunity at another case where lightning struck me and things worked out. steve: you are meeting with him in 1987 and you say that is interesting. gov. kasich: that is the year my parents were killed. he said, i think you should be inexpert in foreign policy, which is ironic. he composed a letter to my sister that was very heartfelt and deep and was terrific. steve: august 20, 1987, what happened? gov. kasich: my parents were

killed by a drunk driver. steve: walk us through those moments. gov. kasich: i would rather not. those are deeply personal. when i was a boy, my father would go to pick my mother up late at night at her job and i was always concerned that they would not come back. my father drove on a street i thought was dangerous. years later, i get the phone call and what i worried about as a kid happened. it was an extremely dark time. through it all, i found the meaning of faith. cs lewis wright said he understands the principles, but violates most of them. -- cs lewis writes that he

understands the principles but violates most of them. as a result of it, i became a better man. my parents did not die in vain it was very difficult on our family. i'm able to talk to people about some of their tragedies because you go through it, you enter that club. not a club anybody wants to be in, set in tragedy, but it happens all the time. it is heartfelt and deep into my soul. i reach out to people where appropriate, i am about to make a call to a family who lost a 21-year-old son. they live in california. we have somebody we know in

common. i do not know if i can say anything that would be magic but i will make the call. i did not lose somebody like that but for whatever reason, i am comfortable in terms of calling. a.b. there is something i can say but might help them -- maybe there is something i can say that might help them. when tragedy happens, you never get over it. do you put it in its place? i have seen people who have hung onto tragedy, never been able to get over the hump. a lifetime of misery. you don't want to see that. that is what i would say. >> are you surprised we would have expected him to be the

governor of ohio? >> when i first got into politics, my father wouldn't like it. he thought i should have a better career. to tell you the truth. as time went on, they adjust did . they saw me elected to congress. my parents had never met my wife or my children. they either know about them or they don't know about them. either way, whatever it is, it is. it is ok. sometimes i wake up and it is hard for me to believe. this is a big state. a used work as an aide in these places. i have seen governors. never been intimidated by them.

i don't want anybody to think you go down to see the president or the governor of your student or whatever. the fact that you are not intimidated does not mean that you don't respect them. one of the things i was taught as a kid is about respect. we respect their positions. i will never forget the time i met mr. palmer. just call me arnold did ok, mr. palmer -- just call me arnold. ok, mr. parmer. i have got a great team of people. they have been around me for many years. they have been working with me for as long as 40 years. that is a cool thing about having a team. one of the things i miss about being out of politics is ability to bring teams together.

teams are what move things. good teamwork, principles, reach for the stars, that kind of stuff. it gets me pretty excited. >> you grew up catholic. you were an altar boy. some called do the pope. why? -- some called you the pope. why? >> i was always active in church. when time went on and things happen to you, it was in '87 it was clear that i figure -- [phone ringing] -- i figure that is the pope calling right there. [laughter] so, i was a catholic. my mother later became the alien

-- episcopalian. yeah, i got it all figured out. it was funny. the people she became connected to in the church were some of the people who came and worked with me most closely in 1987. pretty interesting. >> how did you meet your wife? >> we met at the stadium like a big football program. they have a program. the time they would come in and get our zoo guy that people would know or the governor or the senator. we make a signal. when she came in, she was

working for an ad agency. i came in late. i walked into the room. i saw her. i want to straight out of my office to my top aide. i think i have just seen the most beautiful woman in my life. it took me a while to figure it out. >> twin girls. >> yep. >> what did they think about their dad potentially running for president? >> it is ok. one of them has been on a few trips with me. they are just normal kids. we didn't move into the fancy governor's house or anything like that. they have got friends. every once in a while they will see something on smash --

snapshot and will save -- snapchat and will say something to me. i don't think it is a giant deal to them. my one daughter thinks she should be, no question about it. >> because? >> she is intuitive. >> for those 11 the shadow of government, -- who live in the shadow of the government -- >> government is the last resort and not the first resort. if you have a big problem out there and you're not seeing it fixed and it is something that is critical, government has a role to play. when it is going after all of these things, you get concerned

the people think the government will do it. when i see people in a bad way and they're not getting much help for any help, then government has a role. but i would like to see is for government to partner more effectively. there's something's people ought to take on. work government could wither away -- take on and work on or government could wither away. we have got to help these folks. they have a right to their life, too. we could help in some way. i like that. >> can that with today's republican party? many are saying we can raise taxes. how does that fit in? >> we had one of the most robust

recoveries in the country. we are running a $2 million surplus. i think it is the largest in the country. our credit is strong. we help those who live in the shadows. to me, that all makes sense. you really want to be about opportunity. everything starts with economic growth. you need to reach out to people. how do you turn your back on them? are you kidding me? i'm not too worried. i've always carved a path. many this issue of medicaid -- that is great. that is cool.

all of these programs could be changed. you don't have to cut things all the time. they can work better at a cheaper price. i'm not concerned about the naysayers. >> how does john kasich make a decision? >> depends on what it is. sometimes it is clear to me and i make a decision. a lot of the times i will ask people their opinions. sometimes i will argue with them about their opinions. people come to understand that is the way john kasich gathers information. you have to listen too.

i was ahead of a big discussion. i had an argument with some of my folks. i thought about it overnight. they are probably right and i'm probably not. it's about being a good listener. gut matters a lot, but it is not enough if you don't have the facts. >> d have the temperament? to serve? -- do you have the temperament to serve? >> got the budget balanced for the first time since we walked on the moon. haven't done it since. been involved in the military before. took a state that was basically dead and revived it. i guess you have to decide that. >> how does john kasich deal?

venture characterization -- the jerk characterization -- >> i don't read those things. i don't know the person who wrote that stuff. i said a prayer for them. whatever is bugging them will get fixed. something is bugging him big-time. >> what do you like about politics? what do you dislike? >> you can do remarkable things to help people and change the world. what i don't like is having to -- i would rather things happen quicker. they could understand the bigger picture. it has -- it is what i have done for a larger part of my life.

i think about the ability to do dramatic things and help people and improve the economy. that is pretty cool. if you are not here to serve others, what is your purpose? it is cool. it has been changed about 100 times. we say we don't know why we changed it. i don't know what we should do at this point. i just don't know. >> how much money do you think you'll need to effectively run a campaign? >> i'm just out there as a candidate. >> what is your path? what is your strategy? >> you have covered me for a long time. >> for the voters that who do

not know you? >> connect with three ice cream cones in my mouth at once? should i take my shirt off? i do people get you or they don't. they say the harder you work the less chance you have of making it. the quicker you stand up and take a look at it and sizing of quick the comment you make more it that way. >> did -- all you that? >> no. [laughter] >> i think it is strong. i think that people are really down. they think we are a bad place in all that. we have been through a civil war, world wars, depression, violence 9/11.

we have got to get the economy jumping. people are worried i might lose my job. you don't know what happens if you lose your job. my kids spend a 10 of money going to college and live in the attic. what will happen to them? do i get any fair treatment? can i go to the mall? i understand that. i understand definitely. it takes all of us to be strong. it takes citizens together gathered and determined. eyes on the horizon. it is a spirit issue more than

it is important issue in my opinion. >> he served as such are the budget committee for how long? >> i was on the budget committee from 1989 until the day i left. i was on a lot of budgets. i was a senior republican from 1993-1995. i served on the defense committee at the same time. the chairman of the budget committee -- that was good. >> there is a the great that the budget should be two years in not one year. do you support that? >> i have not thought about that. we need to move to a balanced budget. they need to stop blaming each other and just get it done. >> what was the secret and

trying to have a house republican work with a democrat? >> respect. we had our disagreements. respect iand common goals. that is how you get things done. not when they are hyperventilating. sort of like this iranian deal. when you are hyperventilating to get it, you're willing to do just about anything. they realized we were serious. they realized to the were dealing with. we got it done. >> what would you have done differently? >> i think those negotiations have gone very poorly. i just don't know what the heck

we were doing their. i think we will clearly get a new and a bunch of cash. it doesn't make sense. i'm not surprised that they reached it. they wanted an agreement so badly. sort of like when you go out to buy a car and you see this car. the menu fall in love with it is the minute they have got yea. julie's after driving it, why did i pay all that money? you have got to be careful. you have to be willing to walk and know what your limits are. >> do you think our enemies fear the u.s.? >> sometimes i think they wonder how tough we are. i think sometimes they are not

so sure. things change. >> how would you approach the presidency? your tone in office, relations with allies around the world what would your approach be? >> you have to be a leader that can unify. there are two relationships that need to be fixed. it is really vertical that we speak with one voice. show respect. show leadership and strength. i think they want that. that is pretty hard. the harder relationships are between republicans and democrats. have to work at it. you have to build very good relations if you're going to get anything done. it cannot just be with one party. i run a big state.

i think the most important thing is that the president will listen. he will take actions that will convince people that they are included and are important. that they matter. that they get a fair shake. the next innovation could be better than what we got from our parents. he don't sometimes with policy or actions. sometimes you do it with words. it depends. >> who do you rely on for advice? >> tons of people to talk to. we don't convene some assembly. i talked to all kinds of people. i learned interesting things when i pay attention. i will give you a good example.

when my daughter's -- i drove about an hour from columbus. you couldn't believe all of the people that were at this track me. there were farmers and policeman and and small business people. they were all there. they were all excited. they were all polite. they all wanted to celebrate excellence. it was fantastic. that is the beauty of our country. when people are together and they love excellence and the understand integrity, it is the best. >> a couple of other things on your resume, he spent time at fox news. >> i didn't know which chair to sit in when i went there.

a couple of shows. i enjoyed it. i got better at it as time went on. you have to let yourself go. realize that there are no cameras in the room. i think i did ok at it. they kept me around a long time. it is all about ratings and also the subject matter. i did fine. it was fun. >> you spent time at lehman brothers. do you think that will be an issue in this campaign? >> i hope so. i would love to talk about my business experience. i learned a ton. i learned the way ceos make decisions. about the innovators work. that is an incredible

understanding. i understand the weaknesses of that place. then you are -- the lure of money. i got to go all over the country. i grew up around the keys rocks. at one point it was going to go public. it is amazing to meet sergey and larry, two founders of google. when i met them, they had in-line skates. now they have a business jet with her in-line skates inside. >> when you ran for governor -- was it an issue again? >> i don't know. i won. >> let me ask you about your personal musical taste. what is on your ipod?

>> idle have an ipod right now that i use. i have an ipad. i guess christian music. sort of good stuff. in the old days, everyone was so fascinated. i like linkin park. i like u2. i like a lot of different bands. i like some of the stuff that justin timberlake does. i used to be a fan of kanye. i like music. i tried to get them to listen to songs. i have always liked music. i have been able to listen to some beautiful and soothing christian music. i've never really done before.

>> when you travel across the country, what do most people ask you? >> what is your name. [laughter] there are anxieties of what you hear. tell me about who you are. let's sit down and do an examination. i'm more of a hangout then pick things up. >> when you have a day off and nothing to do, what does john kasich like to do? >> spent time with my family. i like to exercise. play golf. i read and do lots of stuff. >> favorite authors? >> the latest one -- i like cs

lewis. i like a lot of different books and lots of different things. >> and the possibility of running? >> it is really a chance. the consideration is it is a chance to really help. i have been around this business for a long time. i'm no longer like wow. it is a sobering prospect. i think i said earlier that i will say it 50 more times. if we are not here to serve, i don't know what we are here for. it is interesting. no matter where i travel, i'm home. no matter where i am, i feel like i'm home.

ohio is america. ohio is america. it is interesting. a lot of interesting food. interesting places to exercise. a lot of interesting conversations. it is good. imagine being able to think about this in a realistic way is pretty remarkable. god is good. >> governor john kasich. they keep for your time. >> i enjoyed it -- thank you for your time. >> i enjoyed it.
