rehab. her name is heather abbott. she had part of her leg amputated. >> someone told me that i was going to have half a leg basically, at the age of 38 before this happen, i think i would have never believed it. i think i would have been devastated. and i really haven't had a moment yet of being devastated. i've gotten so much support from the hollow over. >> heather's release brings down to 30 the number of patients still hospitalized at this hour. one of them remains in critical condition. the surviving suspect dzhokhar tsarnaev is in fair condition. today we heard from his parents including his mother who refuses to believe her sons are guilty. she placed the blame for what has happen to them squarely on the united states. >> i thought americans would protect us, our kids. it is going to be safe for any reason.

but it happened. opposite. americans took my kids away from me. i am sure that my kids were not involved. >> breaking this afternoon, high level law enforcement sources now confirm to nbc news that the marathon bombers discussed coming to new york and carrying out an attack at the cross roads of the world, time square. nbc news correspondent pete williams brings us up to date. >> it is what the new york officials have now said publicly. place in the in context that it would appear the bombing suspects didn't have any idea what they were going to do thursday night. they didn't obviously think through their escape plan. nonetheless the surviving suspect dzhokhar tsarnaev, according to several officials and now the mayor and the police

commissioner of new york, said that he said to the interrogation team, as the two were driving in the carjacked suv last thursday night, after the shooting of the cape bridge policeman, they carjacked the suv and start driving toward watertown. they say on that trip, they started talking about going to new york and setting off some of their remaining bombs in time square. that's the extent of the statement that was made. it seem there was never any planning for this. it was just something they started talking about as they were driving and that all changed quickly. they stop to get gas. the man jumped out. the two suspects were chased down by watertown police. one of the two brothers were killed and the other was seriously injured and the other was eventually found later friday night. >> thanks for the good information in pete. thanks very much.

across town on capitol hill, each and every member of the u.s. senate had the opportunity to be briefed by the fbi and homeland security officials about what they've learned about the attacks. welcome. if we can start there. what can you share with us based on the briefings you've received and what are the outstanding concerns and questions that you still have in your mine? >> well, a lot of questions. we've been through this once and took a pretty good look at and it looked where things were done really well. looked at some things that were not done quite as well. we looked at some systemic problems with what we're doing. we've got a lot more work to do. >> senator, i had the opportunity to talk to the congressman yesterday that this. whether it was fast and furious

or benghazi or boston, congressional members have complained about the lack of information that the administration has been giving to them. and yesterday, some frustrated senators and congressional members out about those frustrations on boston as well. are you getting the information that you 93 on this case? >> well, let me say that i serve on the intelligence committee in the senate. i can't speak to what the house is getting or isn't getting. i would agree with representative regarding benghazi. we got a bad deal on benghazi. you have to remember the administration was facing an election and they really clamd up on it. and frankly, both republicans and democrats, although they would not say it publicly were really disappointed in the way the information on benghazi was handled. having said that, if you fast forward now to the boston situation, we've been getting a great stream of information.

we've had high level people from all of the different agencies coming to the intelligence committee. and i think they've been forthright with us. they have talked about the things that were done very well. and they also acknowledged some of the areas that need improvement. >> senator, on that interplay with your house colleagues, i want to draw you out on what congressman rogers said today. making some pretty serious charges about a concern that perhaps this suspect was mirandized too early by the magistrate in what is the normal process. take a listen to what he said to andrea mitchell today. >> we should have given the fbi the time that they needed, given the circumstances of someone in the hospital, who is in and out of consciousness and on and off medication for the d.o.j. not to push back. the attorney's office of they have a lot of explaining to do

of. >> do you agree with chairman rogers there? that the judge was out of line? >> i wouldn't agree that the judge was out of line. once the person is arraigned, athletic get their miranda warning. the decision was made to charge him and to actually arraign him. where i would agree with chairman rogers, we have not gotten a consistent policy from this administration about what they do and how they handle a terrorist suspect. whether it is on american soil or whether it is otherwise. this should be very simple. in this particular situation, what they should have done is they should have held him. they should have interrogated him. they could have held him as an enemy combatant. that doesn't necessarily mean he will be held that way forever. at some point in time, when they believe they've gotten all they're going to get from him. they can charge him in an article iii court. this is not rocket science. people who have been in law enforcement. have been through the

prosecutor's procedures as i have know that this can be handled very clearly and so that you don't have all this confusion going. on i know the media was talking every minute about when was he going to be arraigned? they should have been very clear on that. that he wasn't going to be arraigned until they got everything out of him that they could get out of him. >> on your point, you say there is not a consistent policy. in your mind the 2011 d.o.j. memo that does provide for a longer public safety exception interrogation of terror suspects, that's not enough? what more specifically would you want to see at the administrative level? >> i would like to see substantially more details hung on that general policy. i don't have any quarrel with that general policy. that's what it should be. there should be a very clear guidance to those people who are on the ground as to at what point they make the decision to go ahead and charge the person and then arraign him. we know once they're arraigned and the judge says they have the right to remain silent, the party is over will they won't

get any more out of him. and they know they'll get an attorney. once that attorney steps in, no attorney will tell them to talk. >> i want to talk about immigration policy with you. of course, these were people who i am grated here legally. it doesn't appear to be any reason to have stopped them. you have said in your website, we must secure our borders. stop illegal aliens and terrorists from entering our country. i oppose amnesty in any form. that's a quote from you. how do we stop terrorists from entering? is there anything you would have liked to have seen done differently? >> first what you read from my website is exactly how i feel. that has nothing to do with legal immigration. that was a comment about stopping illegal immigration in this country and i stand by that. when it comes to legal immigration, i support it as almost every american does. when people come to this country, they need to be screened and screened carefully

as to whether or not they pose a terrorist risk as they come in the country. in this particular instance, of course, the two individuals in question here were very, very young when they came in. there isn't any more that could be done about them. as far as the parents are concerned, i find it striking that they were allowed into the country with a claim that they needed a political asylum. yet after some period of time, they turn around and go back. leave the children here. this whole thing is troubling. >> all right. senator risch, thank you for that. up next, a new report just out on what lessons we need to learn from the boston bombings to protect our cities from terror.

we just talked about the potential breakdowns in communication that led to the bombing. a marathon is 26 plus miles of open terrain and nearly impossible to have completely watched. a document, the rained response of police and the medical community in boston last week found preparation and a near instantaneous reaction saved dozens of lives. from the harvard schools program on crisis leadership which published the report. americans don't want to hear that we're in a world of a new normal where they have to accept an occasional bomb going off

here and there as the price of liberty. but that's where we are. 100% security is impossible in these sorts of low tech, small scale attacks are going to break through. especially when you talk about from home grown actors. >> i think that's certainly true. that this attack was done seemingly without any or possibly very, very limited support, the materials that were used are easily accessible and purchasable. especially if they're done in small quantities. and instructions about how to build such things are available on the internet. so the possibility of particularly home grown terrorists undertaking attacks like this will be with us for a long time. >> you also point out in your report that trav is usually a good tool for us in catching terrorists. catching them when they come into the country at sort of a

check point, gives us an opportunity for us to check them out. the tsarnaev brothers were american citizens. so that opportunity wasn't there. although we do know that the older tsarnaev, tamerlan, did travel and come back into the united states. do you think that was a missed opportunity for us? >> i think we still don't know what kinds of intelligence reports were available at the time that he came back into the country. he by the way wasn't a citizen. the younger brother was. but the only in the last day or so and still and completely are we getting information about the warnings that russia may have given to the united states. whether it was one or more. and what kinds of watch lists, et cetera, these brothers were on with, especially the older brother with intelligence agencies. >> so speaker boehner was making that point. this might be a data sharing problem. we know from some reports that both the fbi and the cia were

contacted by russian officials about these two brothers. so is that a possible location of this problem? at least on one front? >> certainly possible. it is the case, however, that the fbi did investigate and decide there was no problem. i think we have to put this into%, the volume of people who come to the attention of law enforcement and intelligence authorities is likely to be extremely large. so priorities have to be set. sorting has to go on and it is inevitable that some people who perhaps deserve more attention are going to be overlook or given too little. >> and i think as you're pointing out, we don't know all the details yet. but it may be the case that everything was done properly in this situation. and there is no precrime

division. you can't prevent everything from happening and still have a free state. i wanted to get your take on the role of social media in this tragedy but more broadly, you had a lot of well intentioned people on twitter and read it in particular trying to do their own sleuthing. trying to figure out who the bollebol e , who the bombers were. it seem like a witch hundred for some people and may have even forced the time line for law enforcement. do you have some tips or some guidelines going forward for responsible social media usage during situations like this? >> i'm not sure we're ready yet for guidelines. this is one of the very first experiences of this sort in which social media were available and widely in useful certainly even five years ago, this would have been a very different situation. i think the use of social media was both positive and negative. it was used to some degree by

law enforcement to get information out. in addition to using the traditional media. the boston police department, for example, had facebook and twitter feeds that it was using. there were a number of tips that came in through social media, and the authorities were monitoring that and at information, which was something they should be doing. on the other hand it was quite chaotic noise on social media. some of it correct. some of it malicious. some of it ill informed. rumors spread, as you noted and some people were misidentified. there's good and bad and i'm not sure we're at the staining where we know how to deal with that. and law enforcement in particular is going to need to get more experience and figure out the kinds of guidelines that you would like to see. >> from your research, is there any way to know whether the american public is getting any better at responding to these crises? is there a metric for that?

>> i don't have any metrics, but i think that the boston public, especially in several different ways, was outstanding in the way that it responded. first of all, the people at the scene of the explosions as the video clearly shows are very rapidly ran toward the place, tore down the barricades, sought to help the people who had been severely injured. even at a time when it was certainly possible that more bombs would be going off and they would be vulnerable to being severely hurt. second of all, the public was extremely cooperative with the requests for video and photographs that supplemented what was available from surveillance cameras, operated by the city and some of the nearby businesses. and that photographic information was essential for identifying the perpetrators. and then finally, on the ultimate day, the public heeded to a great degree the request

for voluntary shelter in place, or has been called, lockdown. people cooperated and there was very little evidence of people on the street interfering with the law enforcement or getting in the way. so i think that public response was extremely positive during the event itself. >> it appears that the laws that protect most of us from being followed by our government were somehow able to help these guys before they actually broke the law. thank you very much. straight ahead, a big day in texas even by texas standards. highlights and history from the dedication of the george w. bush presidential center. and what was barbara whispering about with the president? keep my eye on her... but, i didn't always watch out for myself. with so much noise about health care... i tuned it all out. with unitedhealthcare, i get information that matters... my individual health profile. not random statistics.

>> o happy days. there was a time in my life when i wasn't likely to be found at a library know much less found one. >> that right there is the most exclusive club in the world. of course, exempt for being a cycle co-host. all five living presidents on the stage together to dedicate the new george w. bush center in texas. it took two years to build. it houses 43,000 artifacts. everything from cowboy boots to the bull horn the president used standing in the 9/11 rubble. a full scale replica of president bush's oval office. 70 million pages of papers and files. exhibits on the hanging chads of 2000, hurricane katrina, git moe and even wmds. political director white house correspondent and daily run down host chuck todd is in dallas covering all the action.

what do you think was the most memorable moment of the day for you? >> reporter: well, first, i want to have all five cycle co-hosts. how often do you get together? >> every day. >> every day. >> there are only four of us. >> how does kornacki fit in? >> he is just down the hall. he is still part of the family. >> you yanked him. have you yanked his card? >> he is dead to me. once you leave the show you're dead to us. >> no. i dissent from the group. go ahead, chuck. >> i have to say, for me, for me it was just former, look, the whole spectacle, having the five presidents and the five first ladies there. former president bush 41, we've been hearing about his health and it was just very touching to see. he kept it very short and sweet. he had that little joke. you've heard, he is sharp as ever. he is just physically having a

hard time right now. and you just felt the warmth and the whole little area here. when he got up there and said those short words and then cracked that joke to his son saying, hey, was that too long? it was probably, it was definitely a fun moment. i thought both president bush and president obama, bush 43, really sort of figured out how to capture this. you saw that new york times story this morning. how are they going to handle this? if there hadn't been the president bush, there wouldn't be a president obama. they both sat there and found a way to london the presidency in a way that was uplifting for anybody watching. >> it seemed like a great day. before we let you go, we have some other news. what is the latest that you're hearing from the white house on syria and the assad regime twice apparently using chemical weapons on its own people? >> that's the thing. the white house is saying there are intelligence reports that indicate syria used chemical weapons. but the white house is stopping short of saying the red line has

been crossed. for this reason. they say they want more facts to prove that this did happen. established the chain of custody, they call it. that's their words of where the order came from. who used the chemical weapons. they want to have all their is dotted and t's crossed. that's where you see the disconnect. you have to would not why did the white house decide to say, come out, have hagel and kerry announce our intelligence indicating that chemical weapons are used and then put the brakes on and say, wait a minute. we know the president set a red line. that would be crossing the red line. they're saying we don't have the full facts to prove this happens. they clearly want to hold off on what the action is. they don't have a specific action in mind of and you've heard all the hawks on capitol hill. the hawk side is ready to go. they're not saying what they want to do either. i think this could be a delay tactic in order to get a diplomatic and international response together. >> all right.

chuck todd thanks as always. >> and joining us, presidential historian, michael bech lost. i was wondering, how much impact do these presidential libraries have in terms of the way people view a president and their legacy? do they help to mold and shape that at all? >> they do for people who are not historians. they will go in and learn about a presidency. and you have to assume that for about the first 50 years after a library is opened, it is pretty much the view of the president and his entourage. what they would like you to know more or less. as far as historians are concerned, not too much affect us on. we're much more affected by documents and tapes and the kinds of stuff that's open in the archive parts. >> quickly, are you affected in some way or maybe not you personally, but other historians affected by the public perception of a president after the fact? >> sure. and unfortunately, the opposite

is not very much true. the public is not always affected by what us as historians say the number of polls say who was the best president in history? it was john kennedy. historians probably wouldn't say that. that's what the people have. >> when you speak about tapes, let's talk about one of my favorite tapes from the bush presidency. >> officer and sailors of the uss abraham lincoln, my fellow americans, major combat operations in iraq have ended. and the battle of iraq, the united states and our allies have prevailed. >> obviously that mission accomplished banner looks quite iri

ironic. the president accomplished things. there was a valuable response to 9/11 and some other things that are less valuable, right? so what, how does this library and museum deal with it? obviously, talk a little about guantanamo. do they talk about tort you, they talk about the strong response after 9/11? do they talk about the mission accomplished moment? how do they deal with this? >> i haven't been down there to see the exhibits. i was there about a month or two before they were put in. i assume it is probably very much like president bush's memoirs, decision points is an argument for the defense as most presidential memoirs are. so you have to assume that a museum and a new presidential library in this case is not going to emphasize those things. >> ari? >> hi. i hope you can hear me out here in l.a. >> we can hear you. >> good. >> that was a drama pause. >> i wanted to let your point

really sink in. >> and you did. >> much appreciated. >> what did you think of seeing all these presidents together? we rarely see the club assembled. and can you read anything from your time working with this history into whether the current president and his president assessor here are in communication about any aspects of policy? >> not from today. i know that they are. because president bush 43 gets intelligence briefings. i think they are probably in more close contact than perhaps you might expect. that's true of most expresidents with the current president. the other thing is that his father, 41 and also his brother jeb have not uncivilized relationship with barack obama. they come once a year to washington for something called the alfalfa club and they drop in and see president obama, although they're politically on different sides. >> i have a clip to play as well. i want to get you to comment on

it. let's listen. >> america at its best is compassionate. and the quiet of american conscience, we know that deep persistent poverty is unworthy of our nation's promise. where there is suffering, there is duty. americans in need are not strangers. they are citizens. not problems. but priorities. and all of us are diminished when any are hopeless. >> so that compassionate conservatism that was a hallmark of his 2000 campaign and much of his two terms, which by the way, i think gops should return to, that i imagine will be part of the legacy that he tries to capture and display prominently at this library. could that moment, compassionate conservatism in context for us. >> in 2000, george bush, it was

like bill clinton saying he was a new democrat in 1992. he wanted to make the point that yes, he was conservative but not extremely so. the bush critic would say, that was something for campaign purposes, the presidency turned out to be more conservative than compassionate. that's what the critic would say. the bush partisan would probably say we were faced with 9/11. that changed everything. we had a presidency that was very different. that's why i can't wait to start writing about this presidency someday. because there are so many of these arguments. so many that you do have to sort of wrestle with and try to figure out. >> why not make that day today? >> because it won't be history. you need about 30 or 40 years. >> the library looks great. >> indeed. >> thank you for your time. >> thank you. hillary clinton was among the first ladies on the stage getting praise from their husbands. i would like to see her as the first female in the president's club and i'm not alone. >> what do you think of that? she would be the first woman

ever to be president if she wanted. >> vote for her! >> clearly psyched. are you? do you think hillary clinton or any other woman will be elected president in the next decade? cheryl lawrence says hillary for president, 2016-2024, yes. like us on facebook and let us know where you stand. while you're there, check out the full political playground with me and ella. and developing news. a memorial service for the 14 people who were kill in last week's fertilizer plant explosion. that is now underway in waco, texas. president obama is among the hundreds gathered at baylor university for the service. he will deliver his condolences next hour. martin will have live coverage of those remarks so keep it here.

[ female announcer ] dawn does more. [ sponge ] so it's not a chore. as you can tell, i'm out here in beautiful l.a. for a few days. i braved the warnings about the

flight delays at the hands of our friend, the evil sequester. as i've said here on the show, i happen to believe the focus on flights over, say, homelessness is pretty classist and vintage d.c. well, maybe someone was trying to tell me something because last night i found myself in a four-hour flight delay which our pilot instructed us was partly due to the sequester. so we're going to spin on that. >> sweet, sweet justice. >> i'll tell what you the pilot let sink in. he got on the flight airlines, you know, intercom on american airlines and said you can thank the government for our delay. and people end groaned. you heard people in the rows around us talking about it which is great. it is great for people to talk about how they use and need the government for some of these services, i think. and about an hour after that, to finish our story, i'm condensing

it. i won't make the last the full four hours it took for us. >> thank you. >> it turned out there was a problem with the door on the flight. they had to change the entire technical thing hours later. it wasn't only sequester. it struck me that while the political class spends a lot of time on the things that affect them. the white house tours and the flights. about 125,000 people might actually go homeless if the sequester is not completely canceled according to h.u.d. but there are bigger fish to 45. but people do pay attention to what's in their lives. that flights matter. and i think the larger question here is whether the combination of what i think are the more important things, the cuts to poverty programs, civil service, military, as well as some of these things that for whatever range are high profile, whether that gets people to remember that we need the government. we need our faa people. whether or not all of them are

affected by the sequester or not. and as one person on twitter put it yesterday, when i was object knock shusly complaining about this said let's see how many flight take off if you had no government. >> you invoked the wrath of the sequester gods with your comments the other day. you only have yourself to blame. >> i find it, s.e. talked about a pilot making that same message. i find it extraordinarily inappropriate for the pilot to be coming on and blaming the government. whether they're blaming the left or the right. i would like you to play the the plane. get there safely, quickly and leave your political judgment out of it. whether you're a lefty or a righty. >> i did want to share that there is a ggov, a government research study out that says the faa has more than enough air traffic controllers to manage these furloughs without delays. they could have swept the sequester from affecting flights but they've decided not to. there is also a piece in the "wall street journal" today.

apparently fax employees, regional employees have been writing to blow the whistle on their bosses on faa management saying, one employee saying i'm disgusted with everything that i see since the sequester took place. whether an hq or at the field level, it is clear our managele has no intention of managing anything. the only effort i see geared toward generating fear and demonstrating failure. if you put 10% out of any work group, look at us. we've got ari in l.a. and we're having big delays. >> it doesn't have to be this way. >> it doesn't have to go down like this. >> what kind of delays are you thinking of, toure? >> this moment right now. >> i think to the point, the bloomberg study is interesting. there is no doubt that at any office, you can make up for lost time or you know, you can let things get worse. >> you can make things go worse. >> but over time -- >> it was the sequester god. >> typical to do it short staff.

for him to follow along. and it is getting harder for him to recall my name. >> there was a moving moment on capitol hill yesterday afternoon as the daughter of country music legend glen campbell made a tearful plea to congress for more funding for alzheimer's research. and spoke about her father's battle with the disease. it is a disease that does not discriminate. more than 5 million americans are estimated to be living with alzheimer's of and it is the sixth leading cause of death. on a day when we see all the living presidents gather together, we remember ronald reagan died after a ten-year battle with alzheimer's. there is still no known cure. a new documentary, the genius of marian, takes an intimate look at how alzheimer's affects not only the afflicted but the entire family. >> i live for my family and my children. and one little glitch is that i

have developed alzheimer's. it doesn't really matter. it doesn't really change anything. so i don't feel sad and i don't fee regret. that i have this wonderful family. >> we welcome to the guest spot the film's director and pam white's oldest son. the documentary debuted and is playing at the tribeca film festival this week. banker, it is my worst nightmare to have a parent with alzheimer's. i can't imagine how painful it must be to watch a parent's mental state degenerate and to have them lose your memories. lose your memories of your life together. tell us why you started this project. >> i started the project because she was actually working on a book called "the genius of marion" which very much was about the same thing. ma marian died in 2001. >> that was pam's mom, your

grandmother. >> four, five years after that she announced to the family she wanted to start this book right before she'd been diagnosed. and i live in san francisco. they're in boston. and i could tell from talking to my dad that things weren't going well and i came home to visit and in a way i was involved with the book project. i was so close with my grandma. and it just started, like, like that. she was having struggle writing and so, you know, as a filmmaker, i brought my camera out and would allow her to talk about it because she could do that. and so i just found myself kind of -- >> documenting. >> documenting this. then after about a year, my mom, what we just listened to started really opening up and talking about what it felt like for her. she was a social worker and thaerms a therapist and eloquent about what's emotionally complicated about the disease. >> as you see somebody losing their memory, they are losing who they are. >> yeah.

>> and banker, talk about that moment when your mother was first diagnosed. i mean, how did she, herself, process that news and how did she handle it initially? >> you know, i've been saying this that she was -- she was crushed by the kind of shame that she felt from the stigma around the disease more than i think the dementia that was the symptoms of the disease. because it's a social disease, too, in a way. it's mental illness, so it is especially in the beginning when she does have so many of the things working, you know, she was working. she was in her late 50s, probably, she was diagnosed late so when it started. so i think the shame of it all and the resulting kind of depression was the most debilitating thing that i saw. and i think that that's how she experienced it. and i think in making the film, you know, beyond helping my mom finish her book, i feel like i'm helping her finish or continue

her work which was as a social worker helping people dialogue about things that are difficult to talk about, and i know even though she has changed to the point where i don't know if she understands what this means for the film to be out in the world, i know that she would be really proud of it. >> yeah. well thank you very much. it's a very moving film that people should go out and see. banker white, thanks for sharing your story with us. up next, krystal ball on the burden of being a bush. as we head to break, here's a little glen campbell classic. ♪ like a rhinestone cowboy [ female announcer ] the only patch for the treatment

after hiding for the past four years george w. bush reemerged and sparked much conversation about his legacy and how his time in office will ultimately be remembered. as the pomp and circumstance fades from today's ceremonies, we can't help but turn our eyes to the next bush who's in line. w.'s brother, jeb. and the complicated political callous jeb faces simply by having the last time, bush. in fact, it's pretty remarkable being the brother of a former president and the son of a former president could possibly be a bad thing, but that, in fact, is what some are saying overtly or implying. the always entertaining and occasionally insightful former rnc chair, haley barbour, had this to say. "if jeb's last name was brown instead of bush, he'd probably be the front-runner for the republican nomination." okay. yes. his brother is unlikely to be looked upon terribly kindly by the history books, having left

office with the lowest approval rating since nixon. but it's pretty silly to assert that being a bush, being the son of a former president, being wealthy and having had every door open for you in your life is a net negative. jeb is in a position to run today because of his elite background. it's hardly an up by the bootstraps kind of a story. he got his first job at texas commerce bank thanks to family friend james baker. cut his teeth in politics working for his dad's 1980 presidential campaign. as "the atlantic" pointed out "the palm beach post said in its political bid that bush's political resume begins and ends with his last name. sadly, as we know, one of the most critical parts of campaigning is fund-raising. do you think being a bush might have helped a tad with that aspect, too? he had immediate access to and relationships with big republican money from the very moment he stepped on to the political stage and continues to benefit from that network today. none of this is to say that jeb

doesn't have talent as a politician and didn't make full use of the benefits and opportunities afforded to him. there are dozens of children of former presidents who were not able or willing to translate the advantages of that position into a career in politics. let's not get all caught up in the sad story of how tough it is to be born with the name, bush. i would wager 99.9% of america would be quite content to have been born into those hard knock circumstances. this also isn't to say that bush opportunity have other challenges. starting with his immigration book flop and one brash new jersey governor. he also apparently still needs to get his mom on board. >> there are a lot of great families, and it's not just for families or whatever. there are other people out there that are very qualified. we've had enough bushes. >> all in all, it's good to be a bush. there are some advantages to sharing the last name of a former president in your quest for the white house.

in fact, vi have an idea. if jeb bush becomes secretary of state, figures out how to inspire an entire generation of young leaders around the world, maybe then he can restore the bush legacy. on second thought, maybe he should just call him jeb rodham clinton. >> oh. >> that does it for "the cycle." martin bashir, it's all yours. >> thank you, krystal. gove good afternoon. it's thursday april the 25th. every living president has gathered in texas. events at home and overseas shows how heavy the burden of that office really is. >> for eight years you gave me the honor of serving as your president. today i'm proud to dedicate this center to the american people. >> the presidency is not just about one person. >> when future generations come to this library and study this administration, they're going to find out that we stayed t
