>> eric: the queen is leading a thousand-boat armada down the river thames, it is her diamond jubilee, the british monarchy, of course had a fascinating an historic history since she first became queen back in 1953. the world has definitely changed since she was the young woman who became queen at the death of her family and the royal family during that time dealt with a lot, marriages, divorce, births, deaths and so much more, martha mccallum live in london, with someone who knows the royal family very well, hi, martha. >> reporter: hello, eric. you put it well, a queen whose first prime minister was winston church ill and they had a very close relationship, and she has seen it all and, this is a huge celebration of the queen, diamond jubilee and, a rare experience, and, we are pleased to have paul roe with us, a
7:34 am
butler to the queen, and was the first person to see her in the this morning and the last to see her at night. >> great to be here. ... [inaudible] great british weather but, they are having a great time out there. this is for the woman, not just here for the queen, they are here to celebrate the woman who gave up her life, really to serve her people. >> reporter: and when she took the vow, one of the first things she said about backing up queen is she'd take the vow the rest of her life, whether short or long and it has been very long, which is wonderful for the people of england. what is she like. >> she's a very warm, kind, generou generous-heart person behind those doors and is really not that serious, as the woman i've known, i've known the wife, mother, grandmother for many years, and she's a wonderful lady, the queen. she has a great sense of humor. and, you know, i saw her in very
7:35 am
informal situations, as you say, i was the first person to see her in the morning and the last person at night and i went into her room late at night to say good night to her around about midnight and i was transfixed to the paul and she said, paul, why are you smiling and i said, only you can see what i am see and there she is late at night, wearing the imperial state crown and, i look down and she was wearing her pink fluffy slippers. and i thought, what a sight. statehood and motherhood all in one, the queen i know. >> reporter: and is something she did, the queen, the night before, she'd wave to wear during the day and get used to the weight of the crown the day before. >> the heavy hat, four pounds worth of diamonds, rubies and emeralds and gold and caused a headache, very often.
7:36 am
>> reporter: she's an extraordinary sign of stability, and what we hear over and over again, people admire her and she's almost one of those people in your life you get so used to being there. and, providing this kind of back drop. but one of the things i found the most striking in reading about her is that close relationships that she has had with so many prime ministers, there is a feeling in america she has absolutely no political impact at all but that is really not true, is it? >> that is not true, martha. every tuesday evening the prime minister still to this day goes to buckingham palace to tell the queen exactly what is happening in parliament. and she knows what is happening in the house of lords and the house of commons. and she then has her input. no prime minister has ever spoken about those meetings. because the queen does say, i want this to happen, i don't like this and don't want this to happen and really is a figure head of the country and still is, a figure head and head of commonwealth, to a third of the world's population and that is quite astonnishing to think of that.
7:37 am
our queen is still out there, and people revere here. >> reporter: it is astonishing, the realm under the queen and the great thing about her is you can speak to her in complete confidence, and she'll never share what you are saying to her with anyone and is a remarkable sounding board because she's truly seen so much, everything from world war two, through the present time and there is nothing that you could tell her that would shock her, she's literally seen it all. >> and her wisdom is great and that is something william has to tap into, because he has to get close to his grandmother now, to learn the ropes of the monarchy, because one day he and kate will follow in her footsteps and this show we are seeing today is this beginning of that future and we saw the beginning last year with the royal wedding and, we are very proud of the way it is happening and the queen is proud. look at her smiling today and the way she is enjoying this and loves being on the water and
7:38 am
loves being on the ship and of course, her beloved britannia, because her father laid down the koo keel of britannia, and a thousand ships from all around the world and all around the commonwealth, it is here, this is her life. really, before or eyes on the water. >> reporter: when you talk about the future of the monarchy there is so much emphasis put on william and kate and we sort of skip over prince charles and camilla. charles, who, you know, at his age is still not king. he will very unlikely -- some wonder if he'll celebrate a silver jubilee, even. so, it is incredible to have a diamond jubilee, as we said and, only happened to queen victoria. what about the fact in our minds, we skip by the couple -- and there's camilla, standing next to the queen, a prominent spot on the barge today.
7:39 am
>> and she's wearing a similar color, which is a little bit... and, they realize the queen will live to be a very old lady like her mother did, and, for a very long time yet, and the act of succession says charles becomes the next monarch of the country, but in reality, the queen could be 100 years old before she dies and will die queen of england and will still be queen when she dies and, you know, charles could be in his 80s before he gets to be king and by then will be far too old. >> reporter: one question, about prince philip. very long, steady relationship between those two people and, he gets very little attention in america, i will tell you. >> they have four children together, of course and they love each other, and i've seen that behind closed doors, i have been there, and, have seen the fondness and he is her main stay, he has been her rock all
7:40 am
of these years and i'll tell you a secret. behind closed doors, he's the rock. he wears the trousers. on the world stage she's the rock but not behind closed doors, and, she often says, i don't know, ask prince philip, he runs the household and what he does. >> reporter: from what i read, he was the parent in terms of the children and she was busy being the queen and he really had the say on how the children would be raised, correct? >> that's right and if the family business -- he was the morning director and the queen figure head and he has been there all of these years for the queen and they've shared a wonderful life together and i'm happy he is still there, age 91, standing beside his 86-year-old wife, who still rides at the weekends. >> reporter: you have to give them credit, and paul and i will be coming back for more of this extraordinary day, look at the shot from london, paul, wonderful to have you with us. we'll talk more later and now
7:41 am
back to the studio and jamie and eric back in new york. >> jamie: thank you, we're enjoying your coverage so much. back here at home, though, they came out with new jobs numbers and they weren't very pretty. 8.2% is the unemployment rate, right now, ticking up and the white house is saying the economy is facing some serious head winds. what it means for the upcoming election, that is straight ahead. >> eric: did you know the queen has gone to 116 countries, created a new dog, called a dorgie, a mix of corgi with a dachshund and pickles, candy and we have tons of fun facts on the queen and we'll show pageantry and symbolism on the fox news channel as they celebrate 60 years on the throne.

>> jamie: your pocketbook says the same thing, probably, the economy will play a huge role in the race for the white house, the jobs front poses a growing challenge to president obama's re-election campaign. employers only added 69,000 new jobs last month. that is the lowest amount in a year. and, the national unemployment rate ticked upward to 8.2%, president obama using the weekly address to call on congress to take action. prec >> president barack obama: it's not lost on anybody that this is an election year but we have got responsibilities that are bigger than an election. we have got responsibilities to you. with so many people struggling to get by, now is not the time to play politics, now is not the time for congress to sit on its hands. >> jamie: joining us now national political reporter for real clear politics. erin, good morning. >> good morning. >> jamie: it seems like the president's slogan is not going to be not change we can believe
7:47 am
in, but, forward. can he move forward without the pain of the past. >> you heard him in that address, right there, shifting the blame to both congress and to europe and for so long, he has president the blame on president george bush. for the fiscal situation that we are in, but he's not taking a ton of credit for the situation we're in, and so that is essentially where the message is headed. >> jamie: correct me if i'm wrong, no matter who is to blame it is the president's job to fix it, right? >> absolutely. it is. and so that is why these numbers are problematic for him. now, i would point out to you this: in the first few months of this year, late winter and early spring, jobs numbers were growing at a bit of a surprising rate, and that was very good news for the president and bad news for mitt romney, his challenger. >> jamie: are each of them utilizing these numbers to their advantage in terms of arguing? because now that the primary
7:48 am
races are over it is pretty much head-to-head. they have to each attack the other but have they been specific enough on their plans to turn the situation around, to give them the ammunition they need, each of them, to move their campaigns in a winning direction? >> well, neither of them have been very specific at all but what the obama campaign is doing is tailoring their message to specific states they need to win in order to win a majority of the electoral votes they have in the electoral college, now, mitt romney for the past few weeks has been talking about his own record, in running bain capital, the private equity firm he was associated it with and tenure as governor and the barack obama campaign was forced -- talking about grinding him down and trying disqualify him for the presidency, this is good news for mitt romney, these bad economic numbers, because, now we won't be talking about his record. we're back to talking about the unemployment rate, which the mitt romney campaign wants to talk about the entire time of
7:49 am
the election. >> jamie: how nervous would you be if you were a member of congress now, particularly a democrat but even a republican, about retaining your seat, given the state of affairs? >> generally speaking, we have been in a bad range of time for incumbents in congress in the past few cycle but we are seeing incumbents are doing okay. if you look at wisconsin, the recall election going on there, with governor scott walker, the republican, it looks like he is poised to win this recall election and that should suggest that though incumbents have been in trouble they might be okay. it is hard to see these unemployment numbers and the economy going up and down, and, will be shifting until election day, so it is hard to tell until, say, october when we have a clearer picture of where things are headed. >> reporter: erin, thanks, great to see you, from real clear politics. >> eric: the celebration of queen elizabeth's 60 years on the throne. do you think it is easy being the queen? guess how many christmas cards
