2:00 pm
coast-to-coast" its debut from 12:00 until 2:00. all right. thank you so much. have a good evening. hello, everyone. i'm eric bolling. welcome to "the five" on this memorial day weekend. today we pause to honor those that have served and sacrificed. first, a message to the graduates as they enter the real world. >> you can be hopeful because there is a loving god. i believe that the almighty's grace and unconditional love will sustain you. i believe it will bring you joy amidst the trials of life. >> graduates, your values
2:01 pm
matter. they are your north star. and work takes on new meaning when you feel you're pointed in the right direction. otherwise, it's just a job and life is too short for that. >> congratulations class of 2015. life's not fair and never was and won't ever be. do not fall into the trap the entitlement trap of feeling like you're a victim. you are not. >> some good advice there. your thoughts k.g.? >> every time i see it i enjoy it even more. this is a nice selection of people saying this is the same team in terms of know yourself live your life do something that you're passionate about, give back. all very positive and inspiring messages. >> dana any of those that really stood out for you? >> of course i love seeing my former boss george bush. he's not afraid to talk about
2:02 pm
his faith and to encourage other people to try to find their faith or to embrace it because he thinks that will help them in their careers and life and give them more enjoyment. i like that one. >> juan you gave a commencement address. what was that? >> well i was pretty clear, surprise yourself find ways in which you can enlarge yourself by being around people you don't know going places you've never been learning a new language just challenging yourself every day. i mean i would say that part of it was i said to them the little kid with the harmonica turned out to be stevie wonder. the little kid that was not that smart turned out to be colin powell. it's possible for all of us if you believe. there is god within you and you have so many skills so much potential. in fact sometimes you get in your way. you need to get out of your way.
2:03 pm
>> and the kid in the corner who was lost turned out to be juan williams. >> you bet. >> salute. >> tim cook? >> pretty good advice. >> tim cook was the perfect successor to steve jobs. steve jobs stay hungry stay foolish. if you've never read that put those words in a search engine. >> stay hungry stay foolish. which means, never believe you know it all? >> it was a strange bumper sticker and he takes that idea and he wraps it around the whole speech about the way he approached his life and what led to the company that he started. >> let's turn to one of the most powerful commencement addresses given this season by staff
2:04 pm
sergeant ryan pitts. he shared what he learned from his fellow soldiers. >> the best advice i can offer you comes from the most challenging and tragic day of my life. courage cannot exist without fear and fear is everywhere in life. fear of failure, loss rejection. the key is to deny fear its purpose, which is to hold us back. if the men that i served with were afraid that day, i never saw it. they showed me the true definition of courage. courage is not the absence of fear. it is the ability to move forward in the face of it. >> also a true definition of what we're celebrating or memorializing here today. >> that was at the university of new hampshire. i think if you had to pick any of the best commencement speaker that you could imagine for your school it wouldn't have been a celebrity. he's the true celebrity. he talks about god as well because god says fear not and that is a theme of -- i think
2:05 pm
we're seeing this repeatedly throughout the commencement addresses. don't be so fearful. you have to ask yourself in america where you actually can take risks and there's a fall-back option you're not going to necessarily go hungry. we're in a country that can take care of you if you take a risk and it doesn't work out. obviously his is much more brave than ours which is fighting for his country. but not fearing is probably the most important thing for our future. risk aversion is dangerous to american economics. and american economic growth. >> and the military. >> and police officers. >> in most walks of life. juan? >> you know that one really touched me because i thought it spoke the truth that came from directly whom spoke it. you think of large terms, but that one spoke from the heart from a military man and on this memorial day, you have to remember every one of the young
2:06 pm
people out there giving their time their life their energy to us as americans making a tremendous sacrifice. so you know on memorial day, the appropriate day to do it eric but every day, thank you to our troops. >> every day should be memorial day. thank you, juan. >> what a treasure that young man is. and to be able to go back to a school where he was able to get a great education and offer words of advice and inspiration to all of them i'm sure that they felt very filled very blessed that day to be getting in a degree to be able to sit there and listen to a man like that that has served his country so faithfully. >> i once wrote an article about tom thompson. he said everyone said, congratulations, you're a winner in. they don't say, you know john you failed thousands of times, thousands. and you won the national championship once. but in order to win that championship you've got to go through all of that failure. i thought i heard that from that
2:07 pm
young man. >> never quit. quick thoug before we move on? >> the speech wasn't focusing on the self. so many of the speeches plays into the students. they are narcissists. at that age, you think of yourself all the time. so it's nice to hear someone thinking outside of themselves. >> let's move on. we asked our fox news colleague if they could spread their wisdom to america's graduates. first, bret baier and charles krauthammer. >> the best advise i ever heard about life was basically keep it on the road. if you have a dream and don't know how to get to it don't worry about it stay on the road like a car without headlights. keep on driving. >> create something, achieve something outside yourself. when you're old and gray you can contemplate the self that emerged from the you that did something. whereas nike would say, just do
2:08 pm
it. >> keep driving, keep going? >> bret and i are pals. who knew that bret baier was like a risk taker? >> he is. >> the great story about how he came to fox headquarters after 9/11 that's an amazing story. >> he was working in atlanta and he just drives up to the d.c. bureau and says to brit hume send me anywhere you want. >> it was raining and he didn't put his windshields on. >> poor visibility. and he still found brit hume and fox news. >> what a light. >> the best part is he was a bartender. next up sean hannity and martha mccallum. >> when i started in radio, i worked for free.
2:09 pm
i lived at the radio station. then i worked for very little money. i traveled to states i had never even been to. in other words, no obstacles. whatever you dream is you find a way to get there. even if you are not paid a lot. do it for the love of what you do. >> be willing to start at the bottom. i rolled a teleprompter. be excited to just be in the room and listen to how decisions are made. you will learn a lot. do small tasks exceedingly well and people will notice. be yourself. ultimately there is no better advice in life. >> k.g. take this one. martha said to start at the bottom. >> and listen in the room to how decisions are made. that was fantastic advice. she's a huge success and a lovely person inside and out. >> i love mccallum. she said she was working the teleprompter and convinced herself that the whole show is
2:10 pm
on her shoulders. >> well that's the thing. a lot of people think about how to get here. you know be happy where you are and you'll learn something. >> very good. let's move on to this one, last but not least, here's megyn kelly. >> upon graduation go out into the world and try to find yourself. what do i mean by that? read socrates? no. get a job? no. go out and do some crazy stuff. take some risks, travel a little bit. make big mistakes that you have to apologize for. do stuff that will make you relatable to the world and whatever job you settle into you will be better at it for it. good luck. >> let's go to dana. can i piggyback one thing onto that? travel. if you can afford it that's the time you'll have the most foeng kus on your travel not worried about getting back to a job or a family. >> i read about that and the good news is it will help you later in life. so it's not that expensive to go
2:11 pm
on a road trip, as long as you have a car that has functioning headlights like bret baier. our gems of the united states the national parks. in the future you never know you're at a networking event and you want to meet somebody where did you grow up? oh i'm from flagstaff, arizona. and you say, oh i've been there. travel is one of the only things that does that. the reason you hear from people at fox and anyone giving speeches about travel or be a little foolish, take a little time it's possibly because generation xers did not do that necessarily. we all wanted to have the courage to back back through europe and i think we want younger people to do that before we hire them. >> that's the point. get it out of the way and really enjoy it. for those who haven't graduated from college yet and may be looking for a cool summer job, yahoo! put together a list of some of the best paying summer jobs. guess what some of them look
2:12 pm
pretty fun, too. they are theme park operator cruise ship photographer golf caddie lifeguard, ice cream truck vendor. >> i didn't like any of those. >> i always did what i wanted to do. i never thought about where it was going to lead. i sang in a barber shop quartet at an amusement park. six shows a day. it was great. best time of my life. >> k.g. what was your summer job? >> well i mean i really loved the deli because of the food and the salami. but i also really loved my job when i was at -- because i made money for law school so that was very rewarding. i really felt like i was moving towards a specific goal that was going to pay dividends for a long time. >> how about you, juan? >> the first job i had was as a
2:13 pm
gardener at the botanical garden. >> you learned about plants? >> for a big city kid, i was amazed. my god, that's where corn comes from? i didn't know carrots were in the ground. that's amazing. and you know what then they liked me and i liked them so i was there for a couple of summers i became a master gardener. and then after that i was pouring cement and making cups out of a ceramic factory. finally, i moved on as a journalist that turned out to be full time because they liked my wreathing. >> and then you were on "special report". >> well, when i waitressed that was the best money i made. but what i would recommend, i wouldn't do this but i wish i had done it. there are some great senate races -- there's a big
2:14 pm
presidential race. we all know about that. there's a lot of people that are going to be competing but parents, if you're willing to have your kids come and live with you for the next two years, i would send them to one of these ten states. "the washington post" put out a list of the top ten senate races to watch in 2016. if you're willing to let them stay home maybe they'll get a paying job with the campaigns. it's going to be very excited, whether you're a republican or democrat big opportunity in all of those states. >> you know my son went to work at a congressional race for a tea party guy and, guess what they won. >> he should have taken you with them. >> one summer doing roadwork and one summer as a tree trimmer, which is wildly fascinating. you have no idea what you'd find at the top of some trees. >> like what?

2:19 pm
we want to turn now to our military on this memorial day. in 2011 president obama announced his plans to responsibly end the war in iraq. >> candidates for president, i pledge to bring the war in iraq to a responsible end. today, i can report that as promised the rest of our troops in iraq will come home by the end of the year. after nearly nine years, america's war in iraq will be over. >> four years later, the war is far from over as isis has taken over many parts of the country, including now this city of ramadi.
2:20 pm
"the wall street journal's" editorial report says that the war against isis is going well. political imitations put on military planners have actually allowed isis to hold or retake ground. some who have lost loved ones fighting in ramadi years ago feel betrayed. >> we have blood on that soil. my son's blood is on that soil. so many others have sacrificed greatly for that area and there is -- it just shows that there are things that we should be doing differently there. >> and that was sound from debbie lee, the mother of mark lee, the first navy s.e.a.l. to die over in iraq. your thoughts? >> i'm sad to see that sound bite of president obama saying we can report now that the war is over and things are great and four years later, as you point out, we see more americans dying. the war may be over because they declared it over but the conflict isn't and certainly we haven't put isis down yet. they are still killing americans and still want to kill americans. think back to earlier, i guess
2:21 pm
last week when president obama said the biggest threat to obama is climate change. fixing the problem and finishing them off, people have different opinions about how that should happen. i, for one, think that we should bomb them but others think there are other ways. >> it's a big difference because he thinks that climate change made boko haram sick in the head. but okay. dana? >> well i think what has happened in the last week or so is that the white house has started to now send signals that they realize that the strootategy is not working and they are thinking about things including even the possibility of sending a few more ground troops meaning special forces. they fought the straw man for so long as if the only option was zero troops or 150,000 troops.
2:22 pm
the military has convinced the white house that a small number of special forces troops can go in and be on the ground. one of the examples is one of the reasons that isis was able to run into ramadi they were struck during a sandstorm. you couldn't have the planes lying overhead because we don't have anyone on the ground to get the coordinates. so i do think that there's possibly some hope on the horizon for some additional help there. >> isn't that a really great example? simply if we had had the intelligence and able to get the realtime updates so we can be more specific and targeted with drones et cetera then we wouldn't be talking about the fall of ramadi. we'd be saying that it's still in good hands. >> well declaring mission accomplished before it's really accomplished has that ever happened before? and did the press let the president get away with it then? i don't think they did, did they? are they going to have a similar approach to president obama? >> i have a question. >> okay. >> the narrative was always that we took our eye off the ball by going into iraq and afghanistan
2:23 pm
was the real issue. isn't isis proving that iraq and syria is really the region is really the hot bed of islamic terrorism. right? >> but in addition to that you are seeing that isis is now reportedly in about five provinces in northern afghanistan. the fight is -- that's why the global war on terror made sense. >> that's the thing. how did the narrative change to that that iraq was a crazy thing of president bush? it's obviously iraq and syria is the geopolitical region that we're talking about terrorism, right? >> times change and situations change and enemies change. isis didn't exist at the start, remember? and there's argument over why isis exists in the power and form that it has taken right now. but if you're talking about the middle east in general, yes. i wanted to argue with miss perino because we already have 3,000 people on the ground in
2:24 pm
iraq right now. we've engaged in over 2,000 air strikes. >> you're getting caught up by the number. how is that working out? >> what i'm saying is it's working out for the american people who do not want us to have a prolonged, committed effort one more time and have mothers, you know weeping and talking about their children's blood in the soil. >> leaders thankfully don't have to be slaves to the polls. things are unpopular until they are not. just because something is unpopular doesn't mean it is not wise. and the military is saying we need a few more people over here to help us do what we need to do but the rules of engagement that we have or the president needs to be honest and say, we're not going to be able to do anything more and leave it. there is a school of thought out there to let them fight it out. but part of the problem with that i think as well one of the most important things is to deny terrorists a safe haven. if you think, we can drone them all, here's the problem with that.
2:25 pm
we know now thousands of people in the united states about 15,000 signed up for isis information and getting targeted information. you mentioned one last week in new jersey. there's one in mississippi. the way that they are recruiting around the world is actually a huge problem and that's because they have a safe haven there. >> next foreign policy will be a major issue for the candidates. that's next ahead on "the five."
2:26 pm

2:29 pm
2:30 pm
are claiming his business manager and personal assistant poisoned him. now word on why they are accusing that. the las vegas police say that homicide detectives are investigating. keng king died earlier this month and it could be eight weeks before they get autopsy results. world war ii veterans laid wreaths at the freedom wall part of a national world war ii memorial in washington, d.c., and nearly half a million americans died in that war. i'm harris faulkner. now back to "the five." welcome back to "the five." according to a recent gallup poll two issues for voters are going to be the economy and terrorism. 86% say the economy will be extremely or very important to their vote and concerns about
2:31 pm
terrorism also rank high at 74%. and here is how some of the gop contenders have been addressing both of those issues. >> if we grow our economy at a rate where people no longer believe that the end is near that their children have moron nald reagan will cut tax rates and, guess what more revenues came in and tens and millions of jobs created. >> commit brutal otrocities and attempt to establish a caliphate. one of the leading agents of this administration's foreign policy. >> we need a commander in chief who will once and for all call it what it is and that is radical islamic terrorism is a threat to us all. >> we're about 11 weeks away
2:32 pm
from the first primary debate. how do you think the candidates are shaping up? >> you know there shouldn't be a number ceiling on it. whoever wants to run and has a passion and commitment to put this country in a better direction, please get in. you never know what can happen. today's front-runner is tomorrow guy's that wins. i like what he said right there. do it again, repeat it like groundhog day. a lot of exciting candidates. people like christie has great experience. you know walker coming up strong. we didn't hear from him for a while because now he's stepping back into the sway. you know rand paul. a lot of people. it's an exciting time. >> how much, air i caneric do you think they are defining themselves? >> the gop? >> right. >> i think the smartest strategy for any gop contender should
2:33 pm
be -- take after the economy. now, the recession lasted a couple of years and recovery from the recession was extended because of president obama's increasing taxes and redistribution all of the regulations, he added more regulation than any president in the history and extended the bad period. what the gop can do americans are resilient. they want to spend. so going forward, there's a good opportunity to say, hey, if you re-elect another president obama, another tax person like hillary could be you're going to risk the recovery. and say instead, elect me who wants less corporate regulation and maybe bring some money back and you get in front of the next boom and i think america is ready to go into a nice boom maybe a 10 or 15-year boom cycle. take the credit for it. put the blame on the prior administration and warn if you want eight more years of that you risk the whole recovery. >> juan out of the 19 the democrats worry about anybody?
2:34 pm
>> the field that is so flat, according to the polls, i was just looking at the polls here and it's just incredible. there's a top tier the top tier being jeb bush and marco rubio and governor walker of wisconsin. basically, they are not far away from the second tier when you get into cruz rand paul and huckabee. and then the final tier of candidates. it's incredibly flat. obviously jeb bush's ability to raise money would inspire fear in a campaign that has a lot of money in it. it's going to be defined ultimately by who can stay afloat. i was curious what you were saying about the economy because the polls indicate that for republicans in the primaries, what they are really focused on is foreign affairs and terrorism. >> they shouldn't do that. >> more so than the economy. >> take credit. >> tom, you are a genius when it comes to presentation. if you were advising any of the republicans in the next ten weeks as they get ready for the
2:35 pm
first debate what should they focus on? >> they should focus on the economy but tell it like it is. voters say they understand the economy and that they are concerned about it but keep voting for democrats. republicans should admit, the republicans cannot help the economy, only hinder it. democrats only hinder it more. how is that for a message? >> we'll put it on a bumper sticker. i like it. next wedding season may be kicking into high gear but the marriage rate in america is rapidly declining. we'll tell you why, coming up. super poligrip seals out more food particles. so your food won't get stuck and you can enjoy every single bite. eat loud, live loud, super poligrip. super poligrip holds your dentures tightly in place

2:39 pm
2:40 pm
she's pausing. >> where is she going? >> there are runaway brides and those running away from the altar. america's marriage rate is reaching a record low as more and more millennials are waiting to wed. holding off on marriage is great if they are waiting for the right one. dana, i don't know if i believe in that. i'm so pro marriage. i say to my wife this is so great. i could have married three girlfriends ago. that's the thing. people don't -- >> you love marriage? >> i do. i believe in marriage. i believe in the institution so i kind of put her on the pedestal and say what was i avoiding for so long? >> how old were you?
2:41 pm
>> i didn't get married until my mid-30s. we had our first kid at 40. there is this thing with the guys you have to get out there and live your life and sew your oats. enough sewing. >> tucker carson tells young people to embrace it and jump right in. >> i was fortunate. i met my husband on a plane and 18 years later here we are. they say it actually looks like a retreat from marriage may be slowing and brad wilcox wrote a very good piece about that. we know from all the statics that marriage makes you, over time wealthier and happier. >> not for everybody. >> who is more afraid of marriage? the men or women? >> men. >> women are joining the club though. they want to get out there and
2:42 pm
work that career and advance before they get married, right? people want to have their ducks in order. before they went out and got married and then started their life. >> well that was a mistake. >> it was? >> you have to get your ducks in order, to a certain extent. in terms of the tremendous decline in the minority community, people make a mistake and rush into a relationship and everything first. i think you've got to get an education. you've got to establish yourself and take risks, travel according to eric. this is the time in life when you can do that. establish yourself sufficiently and then get married and then have children. >> it may not happen in that little perfect order. >> i know. i'm just saying if you ask me for a pattern, i would say -- >> you know why that's a winning pattern? >> why? >> because almost nobody who follows that pattern ends up living in poverty. >> well maybe your heart will be poor because you should have married the person that was the
2:43 pm
love of your life in college or you meet somebody on a plane? what if dana was like peter, don't get too close to me i've got a career. i've got to focus. i'm all about the white house. >> you're a celebrity type. why do celebrities date for two weeks and then get married? what is it in the celebrity culture that they think being married is a great idea? >> i don't know. but obviously because marriage is according to the polls and everything is falling out of fashion. maybe we won't be seeing that. there are a lot of celebrities, also they ignore marriage and have kids and glorifying the stay single as long as you can thing. but i think, the people that i know that are the happiest are the young married couples who just went in they've committed early and they are having kids and, you know there's something about a young family. these people in their late 20s who have already have kids they are focused and they are going through life together. instead of trying to advance through their life get their
2:44 pm
career and then get married, they are working together. >> this same study says it makes men work harder and more successful. they earn about $16,000 more a year and work about 400 more hours a year. >> i thought they wanted us to marry. >> i think it's because they want to provide for their families. >> i tell you what my daughter reagan and her husband patrick, they have now my grandson and two granddaughters and they are doing so great and they are young married, both professionals and so tom, it works. >> it's a beautiful thing. we're all pro marriage here. okay. next on this memorial day, why the five of us are so very proud to be americans. don't go away.

they are growing up in a country to where their opportunities are endless and i see nothing but growth and possibility with them. >> i get to do what i love every weekend because of all of the soldiers that fight for our freedom here. >> get behind the flag. established behind the flag. let people know this is the most beautiful flag and the greatest country. >> you know i don't think there's any shortage of reasons. dana was saying it's hard to pick one. >> right. >> what would you pick? >> i don't know. i was thinking when i was kid, it started early. i was a granddaughter of two world war ii veterans. i had a chance to work in the white house and traveled the world with president bush and i remember the trip to africa really struck me. it was this amazing poverty but hope because they believed that america -- they wanted to be like americans and i think that travel reinforced for me how special we are. >> eric? >> i'm tremendously proud.
2:50 pm
i wave the flag every single day because of the opportunity that this court gives. for real. not a hillary clinton dead broke. we were dead broke growing up in chicago. i got to play professional baseball i got to start my own business i got to come on tv and talk to people every single day and that's because of the opportunity that the free market provides but the free market folks, is not free. there's a swap and thank them for that. in a nutshell the american dream is why i'm so proud to be an american. >> i'm very proud to be an american. my mother was born in puerto rico and my father in ireland. i'm so blessed to be in this country and my great education was possible because of the men and women that preserved our liberty and our ability to choose and making incredible choices in this life and in this country, which i'm very happy about.
2:51 pm
>> by the way, i think they did very well with you. >> thank you so much. >> your welcome. >> juan there's this myth i believe, that america is blustery and proud and out there. i think america is about thanks. thanksgiving is our holiday. it's a truly american holiday and you look at the fact that we're always giving thanks. america, america, god shed his grace on thee. we are a humble nation. we're always asking for guidance. >> what strikes me i'm a little different than most people at the table because it's not so much for me our might as it is our creativity. i know you love american music. you think about the movies here right? you think about the books that get written in this country. >> the innovation. >> yes. think about something like apple or google. these are american companies, you know this comes out of the
