focus on the economy heading toward the fall elections with control of the senate on the line. it's taken a long time but the economy has now produced a couple hundred thousand jobs a month for the last six months. auto sales at a six year high. the unemployment rate below when mr. obama was elected but a thrird of the unemployed have been out of work a third of a year or more. still the president says things are looking up. >> america is stronger because of the decisions we made to rescue our economy and rebuild it on a new foundation, asking the simple question, is this good for ordinary americans? is this good for working people? not just a few but for everybody. >> president biden told workers in detroit they deserve a fair share of improvements in corporate profits. he said that used to be part of the basic bargain in america. >> seems like the republicans are criticizing the president's economic policies less than they

it's in her country's best weapons to send heavy duty rifles, bazookas and antitack systems. usual officials said they would give light weapons to the kurds. you can see the territory the islamic state controls is reaching that area. the curs consider themselves separate from iraq and have their own capital, their own fighting force, the peshmerga. the kurds suffered greatly under saddam hussein, who killed civilians with poisonous gas. the u.s. protected them with a no-fly zone after the first gulf war, stealing our relationship as allies. but since kurd stan is knock recognized at a nation the u.s. has hesitated to send heavy arms, preferring to go through the baghdad central government. joining us now former helicopter pilot, the spokesman for concerned veterans for america. the germans-going to do it.

the u.s. is not? how significant is the material the germans are going to be sending the kurds? >> the germans are sending three shipments of over. $90 million of arms to the peshmerga in september. we're looking at everything from machine guns and rifles, handguns, bazooka, antitank missiles and armored vehicles. all significant in the fight against isis because it's thought that isis has the equivalency of these types of weapons they're fighting the peshmerga and other forces in iraq right now. >> ironic that isis basically loosened the coffers of the iraqi military, got the humvees and other battlefield weapons that the u.s. left behind. so now the peshmerga are left almost with peashooters against

american military equipment. >> it is time that we start supplying the people who are fighting isis right now, with the equipment, the ammunition, everything that they need to fight isis inside of iraq. but what we need to remember now is that isis is operating as a military. they're essentially a terrorist army. so they have a military structure. we need to u.s. strategy needs to ensure we are fighting them on the syrian front as well as the iraqi front, and that goes -- that means going after their command and control structures inside syria, and the eastern safe havens we have seen, including their infrastructure, their military supply route, and their finances. until we focus on that, we are only treating the symptom of isis and not the main problem of isis. >> they have presented themselves as an almost undefeatable military force, but when the u.s. went after them with a few air strikes it proved

they are certainly vulnerable, and weaponry like the kind the germans are getting ready to send to the kurds could make the difference here. >> it is, and i think that we are going to start seeing the tide turn inside iraq because we're doing what needs to be done but we can't just focus on defeating them inside iraq. as we know, they don't acknowledge the border between syria and iraq. they have syria to retreat to. and gain strength again if we stop fighting them because we have defeated them in iraq. we have to look long-term here instead of short-term on the iraq front. >> interesting that germany, which has been sort of loathe in the wake of what happened in world war ii, germany has been loathe to send arms to other folks. they are willing to arm these kurds and to say, look, this is in our national interest, as germans to make sure these isis fighters are defeated. >> it's quite rare for germany to get involved and send arms to

foreign fighters and foreign conflicts, just as you mentioned, because of their aggression in world war i and world war ii. usually they like to stay out of it. shows to go you how they see this as a direct national security threat just as we're seeing with some of our other european allies. they don't halve the luxury of a two-ocean border the way we do here in america. they are much closer to the fight than we are and it's that much more imminent and critical for them in terms of the threat that isis poses to them. >> hard to believe after the beheading of james foley and the other mass executions we have seen that the world hasn't risen up in greater numbers against isis. >> i completely agree. i think that it starts with leadership here in washington. we need to make sure we're letting the american people know what this threat of isis is. think it speaks volumes that certain members of the

administration were coming forward with what the threat actually was, and how imminent it is, and we saw them sort of get ranged back in. isis poses a real and imminent threat to our nation, and we need to make sure that we are fighting it accordingly. >> thank you. some of the civil war in syria is now playing out near the border with israel in the golan heights. the rebels trying to topple president assad's brutal regime are fighting in the disputed border area. syria's government run news agency says the military killed many rebelled but there are no firm numbered of people who died. heavy clashes have raged in the area since syrian rebels captured a border crossing in the region. a u.s. marine who is missing part of his leg after fighting for our country, is getting ready to represent the u.s. in another way, at a sporting

heart failure in which the hear can mott pump blood to vital organs. it can have causes including heart attack or high blood pressure. with us, a physician at nyu medical center. this is exciting stuff. >> very exciting. a groundbreaking trial. this study, a very, very well-designed trial. double-blind, placebo controlled. comparing 0 novel therapy, combination of two drugs, against what is considered the gold standard and that class of drugs is ace inhibitor, and the findings, they're showing a reduction in all caused mortality, reduction in los angeles from heart failure and reduction in death from cardiovascular disease. significantly better than ace inhibitors. >> and something like, what, 20% of the people should be able to be helped immediately by this? >> this is, again, just -- the study was actually stopped seven

months short because after about a median of 20 months the trial drug was so powerful and showing such a benefit they felt they couldn't continue the study. that's what a row buggs finding -- robust finding he drug having. and then there's the number needed to treat. only 32 people need to be given this drug to save one life and that's an amazing number. we talk about the number needed to treat when we talk about mammography. >> for those who suffer from heart failure, it can be so debilitating. >> it can be. the study participants in this trial had what we call class two, three, or four heart failure so their real if thely systemic. these are not people with class one who don't have a russed ejection fraction. their hearts are not really pumping effectively. they feel short of breathe, have

to sleep on multiple pillows to feel comfortable. absolutely affects their quality of life. what is so nice about the trial is in addition to statistically showing an improved mortality and los angeles, study participants felt drugger. the drug was well-tolerated, a little blood pressure issues but better tolerated than the gold standard to which it was compared. >> getting the fda to approve a drug can take monumental effort. >> it can. >> does it look like this is on the fast track? >> it is, it's being fast-tracked for approve so we are hoping to see this by the end of the year. in europe they're trying to try to goal approval in 2015. >> so new it doesn't have a name yet. >> correct. >> thank you. >> you're welcome. thank you for having me. >> a big chunk of the garden state's casino indtry is out of business now. billions of dollars down the drain, and thousands of people out of work. so what does this mean for atlantic city?

by the end of the month the number will be down to eight. the atlantic club close ned january. i mentioned showboat and rebel are down. and in just a couple of weeks trump plaza will close its doors. that means thousands of jobs gone, many of those cuts coming in just a matter of days. the casino industry really the trouble there. >> it is. before the end of summer, atlantic city will lose a quarter of it's 32,000 casino jobs. the four casino closure is is compounding an unemployment problem. they have 13% unemployment rate, twice the national average, and growing poverty is part of the problem around the hotels but gamblers are choosing to go to other states such as pennsylvania and connecticut and maryland, where new casinos have been popping up. now the rebel casino hotel was championed as a game-changer by governor chris christie but the most expensive casino in atlantic city's history has failed, filing for bankruptcy

twice since 2012. never turning a profit. the hotel was supposed to bring in high rollers, the vegas crowd. instead it alienated the common gambler. enough it's fetching a price of approximately $50 million. i cost the taxpayers $260 million. >> a big white elephant or gray ale fant. what's the answer? >> we're now in year four of governor christie's five-year plan for i revitalization. he is trying to come up with what next they need to do. the growing consensus is that atlantic city really is just too dependent on gambling. you have -- the numbers are 5.2 bill in 2006, that was the amount of growing -- gambling revenue. they number has been cut in half. it's projected to be 2.5 billion in 2015. so the casino property tax is
