1:01 pm
holding a rally. and rick santorum in colorado and john roberts is covering the main action live in las vegas where the action is happening today. john is where the action is, what's happening there, john? >> we try to be the best of our ability, kell lip. at the palo verde high school, 20 precincts gathered and they're collecting the ballots for the secret votes and this is the poll for president and it will allocate delegates, based on the percentages that every candidate gets. for every 3.5% the candidate gets of the vote they get one delegate. and he's collecting these votes and this process has gone by quickly, within the last hour, people have spoken on behalf of their candidates and other people asked questioned and said their piece. we talked during registration, what they thought about the candidates and what the issues are that are important to them and first, the gingrich supporter followed by a romney
1:02 pm
supporter. what they had to say. >> i believe he believes in the constitution and he believes that the founding fathers were christian and they've got feeling and i believe that's what makes him such a strong leader. he is, he believes in that constitution. >> i think i've found my guy and i appreciate what the other candidates have to offer. but, i think i stand by mitt. >> so what we see happening here a pal o-verdi high school is repeated across the state in so many of the caucus precincts. 16 caucuses plus carson city and 44,000 people participated in 2008 and the g.o.p. is thinking they may go above 60,000, but unclear, a better read on it later this afternoon. we did get anecdotal results from a couple of precincts here and see the way the vote is going and hold that until they start to officially release the results. >> yeah, very much understood by me, as well as the
1:03 pm
understanding of that, but it's always fun to watch the caucuses take place, john. what does nevada mean for the race overall? >> it's an interesting snapshot how they're going to stack up in the the west. from here to colorado another big state and minnesota is holding a caucus and missouri a primary and mitt romney is expected to do very well here in nevada and got 51% of the majority of the vote. and the latest polls show him with the same level of support and did he very well in colorado last time around as well and he's running strongly then. one thing that we should point out. kelly, we're going to start to get results from across the state within the next couple of hours and here in clark county, the biggest county, which includes las vegas, we're not going to get anything until ten o'clock tonight because they're having a special caucus for orthodox jews who are in synagogue during the day and can't caucus until this evening, while we get some results quickly, the whole story won't
1:04 pm
be told until later on tonight. we'll have it for you, with america's election headquarters special beginning at ten o'clock eastern time. >> a good note. especially knowing that nevada is being fair and balanced and making sure they're making accommodations for all of their voters to get to the caucuses and john roberts, thanks, sir. >> jamie: newt gingrich and mitt romney are making appearancen and did it on handy last night. both laying out strategies for a republican race knots showing signs of a quick conclusion. >> and people ultimately want somebody with real solutions, which is why my speech the night of the primary in florida got tremendous response because i was totally positive. i wasn't worried about romney. i worried about america. we must take a new direction in foreign policy, that says america will be strong, we will stand with our friends, we will not be an inch of distance between us and our allies. >> reporter: well, the campaign season is packing and picking up steam and nevada and maine are holding their
1:05 pm
caucuses today and then colorado, minnesota and missouri will hold their contest next week and we're keeping an eye on it here at fox. >> kelly: now what, jamie, everyone can be sure to tune in throughout the day today. fox news channel is covering the nevada caucuses live. keep is right here. bret baier will bring you nevada caucus results later tonight and host a special edition of spanish report, that will air at 10 p.m. eastern, only on fox. >> we've got a fox news alert. iran launching new military exercises and building untension in the region and even around the world, because the show of force, followed repeated iranian threats to close the strategic strait of hormuz, this week, secretary of defense, leon panetta warning that israel may be planning to strike at iran's suspected nuclear weapons program and israel in the meantime is claiming iran is working on a missile that can strike the u.s. and so coming up, we're going
1:06 pm
to ask retired army general four star jack king to weigh in on the possible threat and what action the u.s. may need to take. kelly. >> kelly: well, another fox news alert, president obama accusing syria's president of quote, a disdain for human life and dignity. new reports of more than 200 people killed in the city of holmes. and some now calling it a massacre. meantime, the u.n. security council failed to pass a resolution calling for syria's president to step down. leland vittert live from jerusalem. what's the vote in the u.n. mean? >> essentially, kelly, china and russia's veto of this u.s. resolution calling for president assad to step down, in syria. take a lot of wind out of the sails of international community, he was trying to build a consensus against syria, in fact, the u.s. ambassador now says that china and russia will have the blood
1:07 pm
of dead syrians on their hands for vetoing this. the past 24 hours has brought the issue to a head and this is why, out of homs, unbelievable violence, tragic, tragic astrossties and the french have called it, a quote, crime against humanity as more than 200 people were killed and president assad surrounded the city with heavy army and mortar and fired away through the night and hospitals burned, residential communities burned and they were unable to pick up some 500 people wounded off of the streets because there are no ambulances in the town of homs. at last count at least 200 died and we saw from that daytime video, president assad's assault continues inside syria and while the world is calling for president assad to step down, the fact that there's not a u.n. resolution and the arab league peace plan so far at least has failed, it's not looking good for those people inside syria. the secretary of state for the
1:08 pm
united states just also said that they are ruling out any type of military intervention inside syria. >> you know, leland, we keep seeing the video and it's so shocking to see that someone would actually conduct this kind of attack on their own people. and so where do we go from here in dealing with syria? >> it's hard to say, president assad is now following in his father's footsteps, a sad coincidence. 30 years to the stay since president assad's father killed about 14,000 people since putting down a similar uprising. what we're seeing is the video you're looking at right now. syrian embassies in the united states, the united kingdom and throughout the arab region and there are massive protests building against the syrian regime. inside those embassies and on those grounds right now. in fact, in the united kingdom called out riot police because people were trying to storm the embassy, so angry at the
1:09 pm
attacks of president assad. with the united states and others ruling out military action in china and russia, at least right now protecting the key ally, and weapons to syria and also a base for their navy, makes it very difficult to see like president obama's word being heeded that assad needs to go. >> leland vittert. thank you so much for your report. jamie. >> well, back here at home. there are now reports of four arrests as the u.s. parks police move in on occupy d.c. that's a protest camp going on in our nation's capital. officers there making a massive show of force, before dawn. but they had not earlier made any arrests as they went through this occupy d.c. camp. one of the movements, the last sites in the country. peter doocy is live in washington and earlier they said they were going to remove any permanent monuments placed and you can't camp out, but now they have he' made arrests. why the change? >> well, the arrests, jamie, weren't for anything violent.
1:10 pm
instead it was for people disobeying the police on the scene and we know that three were arrested just because they wouldn't leave a statue in the middle of mcpherson square, not far from the white house, but after an inspection from the park police, occupiers who said they'll follow the rules have been told they're going to be allowed to stay in mcpherson square as long as they follow the rules, like i said. but in a press conference they showed that that doesn't mean they're going to stay quiet. >> it's not an eviction, and-- they've done a great deal of cooperation from the folks in the park. >> reporter: cooperation was not always guaranteed. when the park police rode in on horseback and on foot before dawn today, there was some confusion and shouting about first amendment rights being violated and the officers calmly explained since camping is illegal in the park, as long as a tent has one side open and doesn't have bedding material inside like a sleeping bag, then the
1:11 pm
occupiers, demonstrators will be allowed to stay and the demonstrators and occupiers were mostly diplomatic and even saw some shaking hands at one point. >> so the rules are the rules, if they follow the rules, it sounds like they get to do what they want to do. what about next? what will happen to the movement and to the area? >> well, too soon to tell, but right now they are going to be permitted to stay in that area as long as they follow the rules. we got a copy of the letter that the park police was handing out basically spelling out in plain english, effective immediately the park police is going to have a longstanding regulation that prohibits the camping and use of temporary structures for camping and you see some tents and tarps that the occupiers have been using for shelters and they need to be open at all times, no camping and you can't have anything in there to sleep on. you're allowed to hold a 24 hour vigil, but not allowed to sleep there overnight. at the same time, the police made clear that mcpherson
1:12 pm
square is open to what they're calling first amendment activity and also open for visitors. >> peter doocy, live in washington. thank you for keeping an eye out for us. >> ♪ >> well, no doubt about it, excuse me, a big boost for the u.s. economy could be an even bigger boost for the president, a new report showing employers created more than 250,000 new jobs last month, and that's not all. at 8.3%, unemployment, is at a nearly three-year low. could this be a turning point for the president's reelection plans? doug he schoen is former pollster for president clinton and fox news contributor and angela mcglowan, both join us now to shed their perspective from the left and right, if you will. is this a turning point for the president, doug. >> absolutely. kelly he made the case in the state of the union that the
1:13 pm
economy was recovering slowly, but steadily. these numbers tend to volume date that position, and with the republicans in an increasingly bitter fight and the president talking about economic growth and talking about job creation and getting corporate money back from overseas and standing up to the chinese, he's on a roll. >> kelly: we're in election year and you know, election year politics, it's always very strong in terms of its polarity and will the republican agree with him. >> agree with the president that the economy is getting better? agree with the president with his talking points? kelly, no. look, there's no question that the latest news has been great for obama, but doug, your democrats should not do a victory dance yet. an eternity away from election day and the perception dealing with the true reality is short-term. right now dealing with the job growth in the unemployment rate, it could be seasonal. could be fact that people have just stopped looking for jobs. but the bottom line is this,
1:14 pm
kelly, people are still living from paycheck to paycheck. a lot of folks are underwater on their mortgages. and even new college graduates can't really find a job, if they dorks it's not with their degree. >> kelly: keep in mind, the president offered a plan to deal with the fact that people are foreclosing their homes and trying to stop that especially for those who are underwater in their mortgages. having said that, to your point, angela, there are republican caveats there, and doug, the president says that the republicans should move forward or congress should move forward to make sure that they don't stop americans have having that payroll tax deduction and that they move forward keeping the economy intact. will congress move to work with him on that? >> well, i think that this is the story for the republicans. if they don't go along with a popular payroll tax reduction, that is off all, a republican idea, they will look intrans gent, and the president is doing something shrewd, kelly,
1:15 pm
i'm not a big fan of his, but he's positioning himself against a do-nothing congress, making progress and when angela, my dear friend, runs down the economic progress we're facing, it presents the kind of choice and the kind of dialog we're going to have in the campaign that's increasingly favoring to democrats. >> doug, you're exactly right, dealing with the the facts, it would be in obama victory if congress goes along with our republican proposal. but it would be a victory for americans. it will be a victory. >> i agree. >> and that's what we're losing sight. >> i couldn't agree more. >> kelly: lets me ask you, the republicans say in the weekly address they have a plan and would like see the president and congress adopt the plan so they can see the economy moving along at a steady place. ange angela, where do you see it going? will it see the light of day. >> anl working that way over a decade, it's not just a republican plan, it's just not the white house plan, we have to compromise in washington d.c. and because it's an election year, they're not
1:16 pm
compromising, but, if i could give my republicans some advice, they need to work with this president. not only as an election year for the presidency, it's also an election year for congress. >> kelly: very good point. doug, quickly based on what angela just said, we had a president who says he will go it alone taking his message directly to the the people and not working with congress. adding what angela a said. should the president reach out with an olive branch to congress? >> he should. and angela gives advice to the republican colleagues. you can differentiate yourself on policy from a president you cooperate with, if they're intransgent. it puts the president in a position where he looks like he's being flexible. he's cooperating and increasingly marginalizing the republican party that now is trailing, kelly the democrats and the generic vote. >> i think right now with the news that we've got on friday, about the jobs, about 8.3%, we can all take a sigh of relief, but it's not over yet.
1:17 pm
we've got catching up to do. >> we can agree on that. >> we can. >> kelly: thank you for joining us this afternoon, always good to have you. >> thank you. >> jamie: another issue overseas that we're keeping a close watch. the new warnings out of israel that iran may be building, even testing a missile they say could be targeted right here at home. and coming up, retired four star general jack king on where the u.s. stands as tensions in the region may have hit their high. >> kelly: wow. and when super bowl tickets become the second best gift could you get. >> jamie: no way. >> kelly: oh, yeah. how a life saving operation turned into the trip after lifetime for one lucky little boy. >> jamie: that's true then. juice drink too watery? ♪ feel the power my young friend. mmm!

1:24 pm
that the gateway to bridging the divide between race and ethnicity. and the it was recently on display in the united nations. traces that 400 years of the slave trade and beyond with original letters from british abolitionist, a former slave and abolitionist frederick douglas and chains that were used to keep slaves captive. >> to tell the whole truth. we've got to tell the slave trade. but it goes well beyond slavely. in the book and documentary, return to glory, joel traces the ancient kingdoms of africa, how they contributed to the world's development. part of the effort to help young african-americans to learn of rich history and to help all of them understand the dangers of racism. to achieve this goal, joel had to overcome the lack of trust among blacks that he interviewed. >> i asked a question, a question that changed the tone

of every single interview and here is the question. do you remember the moment when you realized that because of the color of your skin, the rules were somehow different for you? how does a young kid wrap their brains and arms around it. >> joel says it's been an awakening and galleries to be set up at colleges and churches throughout the country, to educate and inspire people beyond a dream. >> if people can come into the galleries, they can then be told about these ancient african kingdoms and we're ready for the good, bad and the ugly of the last centuries and i don't want to reinforce that slavery was the beginning of black history. >> kelly: joel was helping people understand black history and live their lives beyond the dream. >> jamie: thank you. the battle is underway to win the first of the west caucuses. we're live on the ground in nevada. we've got the latest as

1:31 pm
cairo today. the demonstration sparked by a deadly riot and some claimed that the forces didn't do enough to stop the mayhem. >> we're keeping an eye on caucus day and it's the top story in nevada. we're live on ground as the voting is underway and let's check with john roberts stationed in las vegas and usually people don't come out of the casinos and hotels and restaurants, but are they out and about today, john? >> no, the tourists are here for the casinos and restaurants are still in the casinos hotels and restaurants, but the the residents, people who live here, jamie, came out to caucus and it's like christmas. like a huge buildup and it's over. only took about 60 minutes for people to come in and we have, like you have for your vacation and remember how memorable it was, some pictures to show you, we're here at the palo verde high
1:32 pm
school, and 26 precincts were holding their caucuses here, and a big lineup for people registering for the caucus and you had to be a registered republican, and during the the caucuses and 26 of them. two in the gymnasium where we were and four people were invited to speak on behalf of their candidate and allowed other people to speak for a couple of minutes and by the time everything was said and done, a number of votes had been cast and we have the results of a couple of the precincts, but we've got to hold those until later. syd james was one of the chairman. you gave an impassioned speech to folks participating just before they cost the secret ballot. >> i told them it's a critical time in our nation and if we don't put the right person in the white house, things won't change and they'll get worse. i also told the people to try to influence their fellow americans to pick righteous individuals and look in their heart and find out who they
1:33 pm
are, not what they say, but what they do. and presently, if we don't make a change for the course we're in, we're in deep trouble. i backed romney and i told them that i felt that he was the person to make that change. >> kelly: we'll see how it turns out. thanks, it was fascinating to watch the process and thank you for inviting us in. and we saw and because of the rules they won't release those until ten o'clock tonight. jamie, a while before we get the final results. and we'll have it for you at a special at ten o'clock this evening. >> jamie: i'll tune in and watching you and bret baier bring it in. thanks so much, john. >> and iran's elite revolutionary guards have launched elite exercises. you've heard it before. it's not just a show of force as they go to close the strategic route. there's more, because the top israeli government official
1:34 pm
claims they're developing a missile with a range to hit the united states. and the iran's suspected nuclear program is aimed at america, not israel and the range was reportedly 6,000 miles. could they really pull it off? is that what's going on? joining us now to talk about it, retired four star army general, jack king. good to he see you. >> good to he zoo you, jamie. >> jamie: iran is always a huge concern and reason i wanted to talk to you about it. from a defense strategy standpoint. leon panetta, defense secretary, said that sanctions and global unification, getting everyone on the same side is the key to keep everyone safe. do you think he has a military plan to keep everyone safe? >> there's no doubt there's military plans with iran, even when i was on active duty. we had plans to deal with iran then and all of the plans have been updated and the central commander, i'm sure he and his
1:35 pm
back have worked hard and briefed them up the chain of command to the president of the united states. >> jamie: you and i had an opportunity to the program review what israel has available to it and iran has available to it. in terms of activity duty. israel 176,500, in terms of manpower alone, is israel outnumbered by iran in terms of fierceness and force? >> no, not really, because the israelis have another 500,000 in their reserves and everybody serves, if you're medically capable, in the israeli military. you do your conscription time and then go into the reserves by and large and call the reserves for every conflict that they've been involved in. they have 700 plus thousand that they can deal with as a ground force. most of this conflict is about
1:36 pm
airplanes and missiles and certainly the iranian ships that they would use if they're going to get involved with the straits of hormuz. >> jamie: i was going to ask you, if it is about air supply, and force, israel is doing very well in that area. but, iran has upped the submarines. >> yeah, they do. but the major threat that the iranians would use against the israelis are the rockets and missiles. and also, the hezbollah in lebanon has literally thousands of rockets. so, if the israelis attacked the iranians, which i believe we're going to witness, the the fact of the matter is, the hezbollah from lebanon will shoot just tons of rockets down on israelis, whether i iranians actually shoot their rockets and missiles, only a choice they'll have to make. if they fire on those cities and there's lots of casualties in those cities there's a very real possibility that would pull the united states into that war and it would be expanded. >> jamie: let me ask you what that would look like.
1:37 pm
because for sure, iran has a lot of proxy forces not just hezbollah, they're looking at iraq, thinking is this the time, i'm sure, that they want to go back in, if they're not funding things, activities there already. what is the real risk? how do you quantify, what we're looking at at this very moment, especially in israelis officials are saying that a missile is in the works or available, that could target us? >> well, i think the realistic risk for the united states, certainly, if there is an israelis attack, will be the u.s. targets that are in the region. and certainly embassies in the region, but particularly, the largest embassy in the world is in baghdad and that's not very far from the iranian border, to be quite frank about it and also a consulate in bazra. obviously, we have a significant u.s. presence on the other iranian border in afghanistan where there's numerous targets they would be in range of. of course, then there's the
1:38 pm
straits of hormuz itself that they could use that to cripple the shipping lanes. any one of those, obviously, would, would involve a military escalation of the war which would involve the united states. >> jamie: and as if our troops aren't already busy enough. general keane i know you just came back from afghanistan. we'll talk about that next time, thank you very much. >> great to see you, jamie. >> jamie: great to he see snu on friday, the first triple digit gain and finishing 12, 852 points and looks like things are turning around. todd is with lambco trading and joins us now with more insights into this supposed boom that we're looking at, but i've got to ask you, is the fear factor still exist tent out there? >> i think it is right now, kelly. the a couple of episodes we need to be concerned with.
1:39 pm
clearly the european debt crisis and the looming threat of potential recession here in the united states. chairman bernanke said that in the press conference last week, talking about a slowdown in gdp and brought up the labor picture. then, obviously, yesterday's number was fantastic, but the question will be, is that going to be consistent for the rest of the year. >> kelly: do we also have to be concerned about china and what it may or may not do with its economy as well? >> that's right. once you start talking about former emerging markets that are now economic super powers, countries like a china or even an india, if they do have a slowdown that will impact the united states, only because we live in a global world, and the companies that are here in the u.s., still receive a high percentage of revenues overseas. if you have any type of slowdown that could impact earnings and impact stocks. >> kelly: that's a good and important point to actually bring up. because the president has talked about, he wants to bring the economy back and he wants to bring manufacturers
1:40 pm
who are now operating overseas back here to the united states. and is that critical to our financial future? >> i think it is. i mean, first of all, do you take a look at the jobs number yesterday. half of the jobs we talked about being created were of the low income variety and most of those were in the manufacturing sector. now, the question remains to be seen. will we see that? will we see companies move those jobs back to the u.s.? it's interesting, if you start looking at just the prosperity taking place in a country like a china, you would suspect that those cost, those unit labor costs will rise for companies, having those employees over there, so it may actually turn out to be cheaper in the long run to have them here in the united states, but again, we're talking about stills, you need to have the stills, you want to continue to educate american and that's happening. the president's doing a good job about that and let's give him credit and will it remain for the next couple of years. you give credit when it's due and what's ahead. what's going to remain for the
1:41 pm
couple of years ahead of it. a lot of different scenarios out there that may serve as factors, and undo the current steady climb? >> you're right about that, kelly, and i mean, first of all, for the rest of this, this year, you would suspect that the economy should continue to grow he, at least at a 2% plus rate. the chairman said it last week, and the president's talking about an economic recovery, but clearly, he wants to see things, obviously, move faster as he we all do. the question remains, with so many other time bombs out there, the you have a government here in the united states that really is margined themselves only because they spend more than what they're taking on the tax roles, but the american household is doing the same thing. so, eventually, you mitt that brick wall. when that does occur, that could be catastrophic, but yet again, we have the federal reserve that helped us out before. so that could happen again. >> kelly: i tell you, we can take a sigh of relief, but the strong headlines in the way from what you're telling me, todd and hope that we can get that 2% growth that we need.
