that the only thing stands in the way of repairing them is people like me. >> nbc's kristin welker is talking about mitch mcconnell choosing to respond to the location that the president has chosen. what is the white house saying other than this was by design? >> the white house is saying that this bridge, the brent spence bridge illustrates that if congress passes the jobs act and the plan that infrastructure projects like this will get fixed. however white house communications director dan pfiefer was recently quoted as saying it illustrates the fact that this bridge spans to the home states of two congressional leader who haven't done anything to fix the bridge. that's getting a lot of push back from republicans. mitch mcconnell accusing the president of a political stunt. they are making the point that this project is not shovel-ready

yet. that was a point that was reiterated in the local paper. the cincinnati enquirer reporting that the visit won't build new bridge. the white house is pushing back against that allegation and essentially saying look, we can do nothing or we can do something. we can at least try to make progress. we are seeing the president shift do campaign mode. this is the second visit to the battle ground state since announcing his american jobs act two weeks ago. ohio is traditionally at the center of the electoral map. he knows he needs it for the 2012 election. ohio is one state he won in 2008 and george bush won in 2004. this is certainly a critical location for the president. by the way, i have been talking to a lot of folk who is say this bridge is really a hot button topic.

it's something they have been talking about for the past decade trying to figure out how to get the bridge reteared. there clear political under tones to the trip and sparking a lot of fireworks already on both sides. >> quite a sight behind you. thank you so much. democratic strategist and republican strategists. i will start with you, danny. the talking point we are hearing is this bridge is not shovel-ready and not be helped under the president's jobs plan. you have 25% of the roads in ohio in major need of repair. they are in poor or mediocre condition and 170 bridges considered deficient in that state alone are bridge and roads that construction workers is certainly get to work on. >> i agree there is a need for infrastructure and got to be under the long-term strategic multiyear transportation plan. we can't focus on short-term stillilative projects that give

employment to a local economy for the next one or two years. in the worst of cases, the jobs won't be coming for a couple of years. we absolutely have to have a more strategic view as to what the plan will to be create jobs into the long-term. we have a more sustainable jobs outlook. this points to the fact that the jobs plan is looking at a series of more federal government focused programs as opposed to what really matters. what can motivate the private sector and eliminating uncertainty and ambiguity and instability when it comes to tax reform and a host of reforms associated with what's killing jobs. >> you say that obviously and i think everyone would agree, we want this to be something long-term. if you are not fortunate enough to have a job of one or two years is not shabby at this point. what is the problem with getting

someone into a place of employment? >> they had billions of dollars to focus on and the vast majority of which were not shovel-ready. stharp billions back then yet to be spent. let's do something shovel-ready and create jobs immediately. we don't need new stimulus for the money 2 1/2 years ago. let's focus on making sure that the money that was appropriate previouslily is put to good use at the same time we are looking at plans to be able to actually boost the economy and motivate job creation. >> i can't imagine you agree with everything danny said, but they believe the stimulus did not work and they call it 2.0 and whatever you choose. there as danny points out are painting the picture that this won't work again. >> study aside, the fact that the stimulus helped turn around

the trajectory. we were losing jobs every month for a long time until these new policies were put in place. we stopped the bleeding. putting that aside for a second, it makes me chuckle when i hear my friends on the other side say we don't need the short-term investments. i think the fundamental miscalculation is investing in infrastructure is both a short-term and a long-term necessity for the economy. investing in education is both a short-term and a long-term strategy that is necessary to not only create the jobs we need to create now, but also to make us more economically competitive in the long-term. i think this is part of the problem. i think this is going-over the heads of most of the leaders in congress. they don't see that fundamental fact. >> the reality is this is all about being able to increase the size of the federal government

and the budget at a time when the money had already been appropriated is yet to be spent. we will focus on infrastructure, let's use that and create a plan over 150 new regulations in the offering that each will be over $100 million of spending. we have got to be able to focus on long-term strategic outlook for entitlement reform. we have to start now. >> we can by making these investments which are critical to the long-term and the short-term growth and pay fors along the way in his deficit reduction plan. the fact that the republicans are just so adamantly against the fact that or any proposal that deals with revenue and deals with closing toox loopholes to pay their fair share, that would go so far towards paying for these programs. it's a necessary investment and

shares the responsibility. it's good policy and good politics. >> we will have to keep it moving. we hope to have you come on again and waiting to hear from the president. thank you. just a short time ago, american diplomats stormed out of the assembly after an anti-american speech from iranian president. the leader attacked the u.s. for killing osama bin laden. >> translator: instead of assigning the final team, they killed the main perpetrator and through his body into the sea. >> palestinian officials are ignoring pressure from the white house to abandon the bid for un membership senior aides who are vowing to take it in. before they talked about this, let's get the president meeting

with both sides. what do we know at this point. >> seems to be no movement on the objective of declaring and trying to declare themselves a state. there have been no negotiations for the past three years to speak of. it's up for a brief period and they feel frustrated. tomorrow we expect the president of the palestinian authority to present a layer to the council saying they want a state. this begins a very lengthy process that takes months or longer to get to a resolution and it's unlikely that the united states will never have to formally veto this. there many ways to dilute the resolution. the bottom line is the damage has been done and the point has been made. there is a lot of support for the palestinians here in the general assembly especially. it's unclear if they get the votes in the council if they have to get that far to move the resolution forward. they made the point they are

frustrate and trying to put the united states in the walkard position of siding with israel against the rest of the world. there is a lot of support for the palestinian effort here even though it seems unlikely that it will wear fruit in the short-term. this is all part of a grand negotiation. that's the only way this dispute will be solved. the palestinians are trying to come up with a new tactic as they try to continue their negotiations at some point with the israelis. >> we heard a lot of this rhetoric in the past and weaved in the killing of osama bin laden into his latest speech before the un. >> this would almost be comical if it wasn't so serious. it's very predictable. every year he is credible and inflammatory and diplomats and the line that got the americans was a reference to september 11 as being mysterious and a

pretext for wars in afghanistan and iraq. that was the straw to break the americans's backs. this was serious stuff. the united states accuses him of sponsoring terrorism around the world and the continued efforts to build nuclear weapons and again, this goes on and interestingly there was support for him in the general assembly and his anti-semitic comments. >> outside the un for us and new calls for a debate about the death penalty. troy davis in georgia last night. they remained hopeful as the supreme court considered davis's case, but in the end the high court refuse and davis was declared dead at 11:08 p.m. this morning jimmy carter had this to say. if one of our fellow citizens can be executed with so much doubt surrounding his guilt,

then the death penalty system in our country is unjust and outdated. we hope this will spur us as a nation towards the total rejection of capital punishment. national talk show host is also an msnbc contributor. what are your thoughts on what former president carter said this morning on his latest comments on this? >> we will have that debate. i think tonight i would be surprised if on that stage in orlando the republican candidates were not asked about the death penalty and particularly because of what happened in georgia and the execution that was carried out in texas relative to the executioner of james bird, that dragging death. you will remember what happened in the first debate when brian williams posed a question about the death penalty and there was a pause even before he answered. it will be one of the issues that people are discussing in the presidential race. >> it's interesting. there is an execution scheduled

tonight in alabama. derek mason was convicted of shooting a 25-year-old convenience store clerk in the face. you brought it up in texas last night. lawrence russell brewer as you pointed out dragged to death a black man and killed him. james byrd jr. it's mr. byrd's family who is interesting. this family said they did not want the execution to go forward even though there was no doubt that lawrence byrd committed this crime. they felt there was nothing that could be accomplished by executing the man who killed their father. it is incredible where we are. we talk about the dead and so many other things in this country. this reminds me of the death penalty debates in the dark of the night. people used to be execute skpud wake in the morning and you hear someone was execute and now it's 7:00 p.m. or 6:00 p.m. in the evening. will it continue to be talk here? especially after the troy davis case. >> i don't think it will be

talk. the one name you should remember is cameron todd willingham was convicted of a triple homicide of his children? e in texas and put to death on governor perry's watch. this was a guy about whom it was an arson case allegedly. the science was later questioned. people often asked is an innocent person, someone that there is a consensus that this was an innocent person, has an innocent person ever been put to death and after the new yorker had a 16,000-word story written by david grant, many think that's the one. it will be interesting to see because in texas, there may be an adjudication where the legal system said that guy was innocent and governor perry will have to answer for it. >> we're will see what happens if that question is brought up to the candidates and if it gets the horrible reaction that it received the last time around. stunning reaction none the less. greatly appreciate your time. we are watching wall street as

>> welcome back to "news nation." congress is kicking around a bill for running out of mone. john boehner downplayed possibility of yet another shut down. >> there is no threat of government shut down. let's get this out there. we will meet with our members later on today and present options and decide on the way forward. >> nbc's kelly o'donnell joins us and you can go home. there is no threat of a government shut down. there is certainly another story line that speaker boehner might be worried about.

>> house members, about 50 republicans voted against the measure he wanted to see passed that would fund the government through nearly the end of november and also provide money for daft disaster relief under fema. he said it was democrats who they thought would vote with republicans to get that passed who bailed, if you will. so he said he knew there was a risk when he put the measure forward. they knew that would be potentially a problem, but he wanted to see where the house was. where members are. now, he put up kind of an unusual caution to his more conservative members when he voted against this saying it was too much spending in the plan and left with having to regroup and come up with an alternative, it is likely there would be more government money and spending in any plan b effort and in effect they voted against their own principals by voting this down. it's not typical that you get a message like that from the

speaker or tea party members. the expectation now is that democrats have an upper hand and the big fight has been about the amount of funding for fema and disaster relief when you think of all of the families around those areas in the northeast and in missouri who suffered so much. they expect they will come up with something. we are getting that tone that's that it's not going to be brink, but an unclear path. >> kelly o'donnell on capitol hill. thank you. coming up. a breakthrough potentially that could break a teacher's strike out of school for more than a week. what do the teachers want here. president obama's support from african-americans dropped dramatically over the past few months. what will that mean for the president? we will show you the numbers that are out. president obama will push his jobs plan from the bridge in since natty that connects the states to speaker boehner and senator mcconnell are from.

welcome back to "news nation." within the hour, teachers in tacoma, washington are expected to begin voting on a contract to end a strike that shut down schools for over a week. teachers are expected to approve the agreement brokered by washington's governor and classes could resume tomorrow for 28,000 students in the state's third largest district. the strike has also reignited the debate over employee union rights. joining me now is michael and his daughter, one of the hundreds of families caught in the middle. thank you both for joining us. what is your reaction. at one point the judge was considering giving district authority to replace the teacher who is decided to go on strike. >> i support the teachers.

they are talking about cutting their pay. i do support the teachers and their decision. >> what are is this like? like most kids they love going to school and they don't want it miss any of it. what have you done? >> we have taken the kids to the puyallup fair in washington state and i have taken time off work and both my wife and i work and we are both trying to have one of us with the kids at a time. >> just trying to juggle it and i imagine that is difficult. at one point, i don't know if that's still the case, you were considering lookinging at another school district? >> this is a small town in our county. 17 miles away from our house. actually turned in the paperwork yard to switch the kids over to the district and when we saw the governor and what she was doing last night on tv. it looks like we are going to

vote and go positive for us. it will keep the kids in the district if the vote turns for them to go back to work. >> i don't want to get you involved in the adult stuff regarding the strike, you have been out of school for a week now. >> my first opinion of it was that it would be exciting to have no school because it was busy in the first school week, but as the days went on, it was upsetting for me because we have to make up the days. that's what upset me about it. >> you pointed out you were with the teachers and this is a part of the growing debate not just in your state on unions and teachers and talking with education nation about tenure and the pay that teachers receive. most believe they should be compensated far more for the job they do. as a parent you support the teachers and you end up in a trick bag and your child like so many others were out of school

for a week. >> it's bitter sweet. definitely like we said, we support the teachers, but innocent our kids are out of school and a lot of people in the school district had problems with daycares and the boys and girls club of america had to suddenly bring staff in to have daycares for the kids of the parents that work. >> we will see what happens with this possible agreement that's on the table. we will update the audience. thanks as well. >> we are minutes away from president obama taking the podium. she in cincinnati, ohio promoting the massive jobs plan from a bridge that links ohio to kentucky. mitch mcconnell calls it political theater. shane bauer and josh fattal enjoying their first full day of freedom since being released from the prison in iran. we will have a live report. a first look at the massive

michelle kosinski has the latest. >> we are waiting to know what their next plans are and how they are adjusting and what were their conditions like and we saw them get off the plane, we could tell from a distance they looked pale and thin, but all of a sudden you saw the rush of energy. they practically raced down the steps from the plane to the open arms of their families. we asked them a few questions they didn't want to take any questions after they gave a very brief statement thanking the government for securing their release. we were able to say josh, are you okay. yes, he said. are you healthy? are you doing all right? he nod and said yes. they looked healthy like they had lost a lot of weight. there has been a lot of talk since their release from psychologists and analysts talking about how it's going to be for them to adjust after two years and 51 days in an iranian prison. they obviously have the support

of their family and friends and the people in the united states who have been pulling for their release. we are waiting to hear from the families and not sure they will give a press conference before they leave. that is a possibility and something that has been talking about since they confirmed. i don't know what day they will leave to go back to the u.s. we can only imagine they were relaxing and soaking up the wonderful heat in the beautiful country that they are very grateful to. >> michelle kosinski, live, thank you. >> president obama is in the battle ground state of ohio and republican candidates are gathering in florida for the third debate in the past 15 days. ken vogel, a report for politico. are you a new poll showing that perry is leading romney 28 to 22%. i top the play the latest aggressive language from romney regarding governor perry. let's play it. >> governor perry who is running

for president, he in his book that came out this year said in his view, social security itself is a failure. he said secondly that social security is not something the federal government ought to be doing. it's unconstitutional. >> america promised them that program will be there. for anyone to say different, particularly someone standing on the republican stage that wants to be the nominee for the presidency to imply that the age-old democrat trick that we will scare our seniors, that's irresponsible. >> ken, is that the debate tonight and what we will hear a lot of tonight. >> we will definitely hear about social security. that's the main line of attack that governor romney is pushing against governor perry. there was a lot of attention paid to this quote that governor perry said it was a ponzi scheme and that got a lot of attention. however what you just heard from

mitt romney there, statements that he is echoing from governor perry's book, fed up. social security is unconstitutional. that's the line of attack that and will be a good for mitt romney because it gets at the question of whether governor perry will be a viable general election candidate and that's certainly social security scare tactics and something that democrats have been able to use effectively against republicans and governor romney is saying if perry is the nominee, this will be a weakness. >> another weakness according to new article could be the jobs record that governor perry likes to tout. he created a million jobs in the state of texas, he said. between 2007 and 2011, 40% of the jobs created in texas went to undocumented immigrants. about another 40 percent ps according to the group went to immigrants in the country illegally. we know that a lot of the jobs created in the state were people

working for minimum wage and not receiving insurance. this could also be a hot button tonight. >> exactly. what you see on the immigration front is kind of the opposite of what you see on the social security front. governor perry has something of a moderate stance on immigration. he expressed support for immigration reforms and allowing benefits to the children of undocumented immigrants. that's the stance that may play well in the general election and 1 that hurt him in the primary. i'm sure we will see mitt romney and more so the candidates further to rick perry's right try to get in on immigration. >> it's interesting he said he was a pi natty last time around. on "morning joe," joe scarborough had an entering anal kiss of rick perry and his ability to fight back. let me play this moment from "morning joe." >> the problem with perry, i know this because i have been following him for more than one debate. he doesn't have a counter punch.

you can see five minutes into it. i joke about his response being uh-uh, but that's the equivalent. >> what do you make of that? >> he had responses to these issues that have been raised against him, including social security, including the hpv vaccine, but they have been more defensive responses where he has been explaining himself as opposed to throwing one back. interesting counter point would be when he went after mitt romney on his jobs record in massachusetts. he came back and said governor bush created more jobs than you did. we see the potential there for punches to be thrown back and forth between romney and governor pery in particular. the interesting thing will be whether perry in particular responds to punches thrown by the other candidates. the second and third tier candidates who he has engaged with and said you should just

focus on mitt romney and ignore the other candidates. >> ken vogel, thank you very much. appreciate it. new details on the satellite plummeting to earth topped the stories. the 6 1/2 ton spacecraft will crash into earth tomorrow while it's too early to exactly know where the pieces will fall. nasa scientists said north america will not be hit by space debris. scientistsville a sense of where it lands two hours before impact. that's some warning am pope benedict xvi is in germany on the visit to his home-land. warning jernlg o germans not to ignore religion. he is trying to persuade catholics while acknowledging widespread sex abuse by church officials. the baseball fan attacked and beaten into a coma on opening day is awake and talking. his recovery has been slow, but he is able to recite his

addiction. what researchers are find suggest that there a lot of parallels between addiction and any kind of drug or substance and food. certain foods. what's interesting is that people are most likely to be addicted to foods that are processed and concentrated. most will not be addicted to an apple, but they are likely to be addicted to chocolate ice cream which like drugs have been refine and process and have that effect on the brain. >> so much of the obesity questions with african-americans has centered around food deserts and poverty and it is cheaper to go out and buy fast food if you are working a couple of jobs to feed your kids and what's available. in chicago they did a study and there were no whole foods or nice grocery stores in certain neighborhoods. they are food deserts. >> when are it comes to the african-american community, that's a big issue. access and economics. you can want to eat good, but

you can want to eat healthy and if there is nothing available that limits your option. the other thing is that most often fast foot and junk food is much cheaper. if you are already on the brink of poverty isy and worried about stretching a dollar, it's easier to buy pizza than make a salad and chicken breast. that is an issue we found. >> interesting topic. we have more of the series. for more by the way of the series, check out the big issue with food addiction. we will have a report on the grio.com. many facebook users were outraged after changes were made to the appearance of the social networking site. today the ceo announced even more changes. will it make people happy? >> there is a lot going on. things we thought you should know. arnold schwarzenegger wrapped up a career and news he fathered a child out the wedlock.

the secretary of transportation ray la hood is in the house. give him a round of applause. you got the mayor of the great city of cincinnati, mark mallory is here. we have got the mayor of covington and mayor danny bowman. senator rand paul is here. rand is going to be supporting bridges. we have got congressman john yarmouth in the house. it is good to be back. i was just in columbus a little while ago. i figured i couldn't get away with not giving cincinnati a little bit of love.

i want to thank ron for his introduction. companies like hill top. there millions of construction workers out there looking for a job. there is no waiting to get done behind it. behind us they stand the bridge. it's located on one of the busiest truck routes in north america. it sees about 150,000 vehicles

every day. it's in such poor condition that is functionally obsolete. that doesn't sound good, does it. it's save to drive. it's to drive on. but it was not designed to accommodate today's traffic. that can stretch out for a mile. shipping companies try to have their trucks and that only costs them more money as well. the thing is there bridges and roads and highways like that throughout the region. a major bridge that connects kentucky and indiana closed down for safety reasons. another aging bridge that crosses over the river. it could be replaced right now. there rail stations in cleveland

and toledo in desperate need of repair. the same is true in cities across america. it makes your commute longer. it costs our businesses billions of dollars. they could be moving products faster if they had better transportation routes. in some cases it's not safe. we used to have the best infrastructure in the world here in america. we are the country that built the intercontinental reporter. the interstate highway system. we built the hoover dam and the grand central station. how can we sit back and let china build the best railroads. let europe build the best highways and have singapore build a nicer airport? at a time when we have millions of unemployed construction workers out there just ready to get on the job and ready to do

the work. rebuilding america. >> this bill was not that complicated. it's a bill that would put people back to work rebuilding america. repairing the roads and bridges and repairing the schools. it would lead to jobs for concrete workers like the ones here at hill top and jobs for construction workers and masons, carpenters and plumbers and electricians, architects and engineers, iron workers. put folks back to work.

there is work to be done and workers ready to do it. let's tell congress to pass this bill right away. pass the bill! tell them to pass the jobs bill and not only will we rebuild america and they will put thousands of teachers back to work. i was with the president of south korea and united nations doing a burch of stuff and he told me in the past, i asked him what's the biggest challenge. he said education. i said well, what are you dealing with.

he said well, we are hiring so many teachers. we can barely keep up. we know that if we are going to compete in the future, we have to have the best teachers. we have to have our kids in school longer and make sure that they are learning math and science. they are hiring teachers in droves. what are we doing? we are laying off teachers. it makes no sense in this economy where the young people's success will depend on the kind of education they can get. so for us to be laying off teachers. doesn't make sense for the kids and doesn't make sense for us and doesn't make sense for the economy. pass this jobs bill and put teachers back in the classroom where they belong. >> pass this bill! pass this bill! pass this bill!

>> they need to go and pass it. tell congress to pass this jobs bill and companies will get tax credit for hiring america's veterans. we have been through a decade of war now. almost two million people have served and think about it. they are suspended their careers and leaving their families and putting themselves in harm's way all to protect us. the last thing they should have to do is fight for a job when they come home. if we pass this jobs bill it makes it easier for employers to hire those veterans chl that's why we need to tell congress to do what? pass the bill. the american jobs act will cut
