roger goodell prepares to break his silence today, but it is the 12th man who might have a final word on the scandal that rocked the nfl. fans don't care, but that will not silence the league's many critics. >> it seems that they are throwing things at the wall and where public opinion is and what's right or wrong. >> the mayor of baltimore. scotland said nay after a vote. united king stands united. >> the people of scotland have spoken. >> that is it. scotland has voted no.

>> the official that scotland has voted no to independence. >> a record breaking 86% turn out. >> 86% turn out. what does that say to americans about how engaged people can be when they want to in their democracy. hours after a terrifying isis beheading plot is thwarted, they voted for money to train the syrian opposition with an outspoken descent from an outspoken candidate. >> there were bad people on both sides. you need to stay the heck out of their civil war. sending arms to rebels in syria is a fool's errand and only make isis stronger. >> i'm andrea mitchell in washington.

roger goodell is speaking out for the first time in the news conference at 3:00 to address the issues. and we are expecting to hear from president obama at any moment. an event on sexual assaults on college campuses. new rules. the national correspondent joins me now from new york. he has been silent. not seen since all of this first broke. it has been more than a week. >> that's right. it has been since last tuesday. ten days since we saw roger goodell in a conversation we had on interview. today he will make a statement to answer questions from a hoard of reporters waiting for this period of time to pose the questions to him directly. this is a man that 18 months ago was rated the most powerful man in sports. now there a lot of questions about his handling. the nbc news maris poll shows

that only in ten americans believe he should resign, they are by and large dissatisfied with the way the league and the teams have handled this crisis so far. there continues to be pressure on goodell to speak out and act in greater fashion. just yesterday the falcons on a prime time game and there was another banner paid for behind the plain for a women's group that read goodell must go. the backdrop is interesting. we have been talking about the iphone 6s and the lines being so long. there is a longer line today in the city of baltimore. they are getting one of the first opportunities to return their ray rice jerseys. the line has gone for blocks as they were being told and jerseys in exchange for another player and the league is trying to get out in front of a crisis they have been rocked by over the

course of the last several weeks. >> we will hear from the president and this will issue sexual assaults on campuses. separate but linked. there is a conversation that was started by the nfl scandal and is continuing. >> i finished the conversation with the head of the national domestic violence hotline. an organization that is based out of austin, texas. this is a problem. before the ray rice sports video came out. that was striking when you think about that. he has gone up 84% since september 11th 8th, since the day that video came out. it's stunning, but what it demonstrates is this is something that for too long in this country had been in the shadows and ultimately people

and they are feeling more and more comfortable. they are sharing their stories and initiating a very, very difficult process. >> the polls show that 85% are still going to watch the same amount of football. >> that's one of the things that people are left with. the second weekend there were four games that got more than 20 million viewers to watch them. this is why this is still a magnet for advertisers and sponsors. they spend more than $1 billion annually on the nfl. while there has been some erosion and some hard statements, the latest coming from marriott. marriott putting out a statement where it is calling on the nfl to do more and saying after it sees the way the nfl handles the situation, they will take the opportunity to review the sponsorship. that's the stuff that matters to this $10 billion thabs is the nfl. the fans are not going anywhere,

but if the sponsors do which appears unclear, the nfl may have to make new plans. >> here on top of it all, thank you very much. we of course are waiting for the president to speak. joe biden will be introducing him. let's go to scotland and as they say, god did save the queen and her kingdom in that historic vote by the scottish people where 86% of registered voters decided scotland will remain in the uk. while we were sleeping, a nation stayed up all night to feel the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat when the returns came in. there was a clear majority. showing independence. the big winner in the short-term, david cameron who doesn't have to go down in history as the who presided over the end of a 3 hundred-year-old union between scotland and great britain. he promised more autonomy not only to scotland, but northern

ireland and wales. michelle caruso cabrera live in edinborough. it was not close in the end, but it was that decisive vote that had strong signals. they want more autonomy. there economic ramifications as well. >> for sure. absolutely. even though they voted to stay part of the united kingdom, they are unlikely to be the same ever again. david cameron said he was going to deliver on a promise he made before the election. if you vote against independence, you will get more control. i promise you that's going to happen. he threw a curveball in there. it's not just the scotts. it will be the people in wales and the people of england. there is a reason for this. they say wait a minute, we will give all this power to the scotts and they can vote on our

affairs? we want the same powers. it's really going to change in the united kingdom with tax revenues. >> briefly while we wait for the president, david cameron kind of dodged it. there would have been hell to pay if he had lot of the vote. >> interestingly there is very little public celebration by the no to independence camp. following that vote to keep scotland within the united kingdom. one got the feeling talking to brits as we call them before the vote, many were in a state of denial. they couldn't conceive of a united kingdom without scotland and they hoped it would go away. business as usual today here in great britain. a stiff upper lip and back to

work. there is great relief. the british pound spiked and the markets are all up. bankers and business then no longer worrying about a tanking economy. by far that prime minister david cameron has to be the most relieved brit on earth. back to you. joining us now, from the financial times, they join us as we wait for the president. this is such a strong message and what are the implications for ireland and for what's going to happen in wales? how will the uk change? >> two things become clear. one is that democracy works and incredibly high turn out that frankly if only that could be repeated, we would have a lot more faith in the president. secondly it is clear that the current structure of governments in the uk is not working as far as many scotts are concerned. that will have a lot of

implications. if you step back for a minute, one of the other really interesting things is scotland reminded us that occurred right across the west world. they are parts of the eurozone which are talking about wanting more information for the regions. the question is how are governments going to deal with this increasingly angry population? >> what about the effect on the currency? the pound was up a little bit. they now don't have to worry about a lot of huge issues. the offshore oil off scotland and the nato base and the submarines. all of that has a big effect. >> good news is that the immediate threat of a break up has been taken off the table and you have seen. bad news is a political question

and david cameron emerged from this rather wounded. there is a lot more political unsrnd that highlighted. they did say six months ago. huge story. you are writing in the financial times. thank you so much. great to see you. and right now, hillary clinton is speaking at a leadership event for the democratic national committee at the women's event here in washington. let's listen to her for a moment before we bring in the president as he is about to step to the podium. >> when women vote, america wins. that's why we are all here today. we are here because there is a movement stirring in america. you can see it in the parents in

california who demanded paid sick leave so they didn't have to choose between their jobs and their kids. you can see it in the moms demanding equal bay for equal work and the dads demanding access to quality affordable child care. you can see it in the fast foot and domestic workers across the country who ask for nothing more than a living wage and a fair shot. this is a movement that is not waiting for washington with its gridlock and grandstanding. this movement won't wait and neither can we. that's why we are here today. we are here because the mid-terms really matter. they may not be as glamorous,

but the mid-term elections are crucial for our country's future. for our jobs and schools and health care and our families. they deserve our undivided attention. american voters have a choice and a chance. it's a chance to put america's families first at a time when corporations have all the rights of people, but none of the responsibilities. we have a choice to make. it's a chance to elect leaders who know that women should be able to make our own health care decisions and it's a chance to elect democrats who will fight every day to make sure our economy and democracy work for every american. you know, at a time when the deck does seem stacked against middle class family in so many ways, we have a choice to make.

on sunday, i was in iowa with a candidate for congress named stacy apple. she is a great mom who worked her way up from minimum wage to management. with enough support she would be the first woman ever elected from iowa to the u.s. house of representatives. stacy is one of more than 100 democratic women. >> continuing to campaign for mid-term election democrats. msnbc's stacy hunt, welcome both. as we face the mid-terms, you have the president and the vice president on campuses and coming out of the justice department of title to make all colleges and universities take proactive

steps to protect and lower the purpose on campus. it's a big deal. at the same time joe biden is speaking at a women's event earlier today. let me give this a sense of history here in washington. >> it was republicans who expanded access to the polls. it was republicans in the judiciary who did the motor voter. republicans were involved. guys like packwood and so many others. it wasn't democrats. >> a great senator from maryland, but bob packwood, he was expelled from the senate in 1995. expelled after 27 years because he was facing it two days after they voted 6-0 to recommend

expulsion. they were 10,000 pages of do you means against him and allegations of sexual harassment. >> ten women? >> ten women testified. >> and you read it. >> i covered it. >> you were there when hillary clinton was talking about women's rights. for him to bring this up at a forum that he was also speaking at for women at the democratic parties. >> it's just the extreme. the president is about to speak. let's listen to the president and i will come to you to comment on the outside. >> not just for the introduction and being a great vice president, but for decades and long before he was in his current office, joe brought unmatched passion to the cause. he has.

at a time when domestic violence was seen as a private matter, joe was saying this was unacceptable. thanks to him and so many others, last week we were able to commemorate the law that transformed the way we handle domestic abuse and the violence against women act. we are here to talk about an issue that is a priority for me. ending campus sexual assault. i want to thank all of you who are participating. i particularly want to thank lily for her wonderful presentation and grace. i want to thank her parents for being here. on the one hand i am enraged about what happened and on the other hand i am empowered to see such an incredible young woman be so strong and do so well.

we will be thrilled watching all the things she will do in her life. i am proud of her. i want to thank the white house council on women and girls. good job. thank you. i want to thank the adviser on violence against women. the work that you do warning with others to prevent the outrage on the crime of sexual violence. we have outstanding lawmakers with us. senator clair mccaskill is here from the great state of missouri who i love. we have dick blumenthal from the great state of connecticut as well as susan davis. thrilled to have you guys here.

other members are here and worked on this issue for so long. a lot of people this this room have been on the frontlines in fighting assault for a long time. along with lily i want to thank the survivors and so many others around the country. lily i'm sure took strength from a community of people. some who came before her and some who were her peers who spoke out about the darkest moment of their lives. they endure pain and the fear that isolates victims of sexual assault. when they give voice to their own experiences, they are giving voice to countless others. women and men, girls and boys

who suffer in silence. for those who are leading the fight, your efforts started a movement you know that as lily described, there times where the fight feels lonely and feels as if you are dredging up stuff that you would rather put behind you. we are here to say today, it's not on you. this is not your fight alone. this is on all of us. every one of us to fight campus sexual assault. you are not alone. we are going to organize campus by campus, state by state. this country will make sure we understand what this is about and we will put a stop to it. this is a new school year.

we have been working on sexual assault for several years, but the issue of violence is in the news every day. i am starting to get a better picture of what domestic violence is all about. victims are realizing they are not alone. brave people have come forward and open up about their own experiences. we think today's effect is all that more relevant. all that more important. for us to say that campus sexual assault is something that we can say that's not our problem. this is a problem that matters to all of us. one in five women has been assaulted here. one in five. of those assaults, 12 percent per are reported. of those, only a fraction are punished.

while these assaults overwhelmingly happen to women, men are assaulted too. men get raped. they are less likely to talk about it. we know sexual assault can happen to anyone no matter race, economic status, sexual orientation and gender and lgbt victims can feel more isolated and alone. for anybody whose once normal life was once shattered by an act of sexual violence, the trauma and the terror can shader you and it lingers. you don't know where to go and who to turn to. you are forced to stay in the same class and the same dorm with the person who raped you. people are more spigz of what you were wearing or drinking as if it's your fault and not the fault of the person who

assaulted you. the haunting presence when the people trusted with welfare fail to protect you. opportunities work hard. i know. i'm watching malia right now. she's a junior. she has a lot of homework. parents can do everything to support their kids's dream of getting a good education. when they make it on campus only to be assaulted, that's not just a nightmare and a front to everything they achieved, it is a front to our basic humanity and insults our basic values. we are a nation that values liberty and equality and justice. the more people who believe every child deserves an education. free from fear or intimidation or violence and we owe it to our children to live up to the

values. my administration is trying to do our part. three years ago we sent people to every school district that receives and prevent and respond to sexual assault. we remind them that it is not just a crime, but a civil rights violation. i want to acknowledge arnie duncan for holding schools accountable and making sure they stand up for students. number two, in january i created a white house task force to protect students from sexual assault and to work on better ways to prevent and respond to assaults. to lift up best practices. we held conversations with thousands of people and faculty and law enforcement and

academics. they released the first report recommending a number of best practices to keep our kids safe. these are tested and they are common sense measures. they will figure out the scope of the problem. giving survivors a safe place to go and a trusted person to talk to. training them on how to handle trauma. when you head the accounts, you think what were they thinking? you get a sense of too many people in charge dropping the ball. fumbling something that should be taken with the utmost seriousness and utmost care. number three, we are stepping up enforcement efforts and increasing the transparency of the efforts. reviewing existing laws to make sure they are adquit and keep

working with the 123450uinstituo help them respond to the crimes. that's what we have been doing. there is always more we can do. today we are joining with people across the country to change our culture and help prevent sexual assault from happening. that's where prevention will require it. we have to have a shift in our culture. as far as we have come, from sports leagues to pop culture to politics, our society still does not sufficiently value women. we don't condemn sexual assault as loudly as we should. we make excuses and look the other way. the message can have a chilling effect on our young women. when women succeed, america succeeds. if you look internationally,

countries that oppress their women are countries that do badly. countries that empower their women are countries that thrive. this is something that requires us to shift how we think about the issues. one letter from a young woman brought the point home. katherine morrison, a student from youngstown, ohio wrote how are we supposed to succeed when so many of our voices are being stifled? how can we succeed when our society said as a woman it's your fault if you are at a party or walked home alone. when people look at women and say you should have known better or boys will be boys. katherine is absolutely right. women make up half this country. half the workforce. more than half of our college

students. they are not going to succeed the way they should unless they are treated as true equals and supported and respected. and unless women are allowed to fulfill their full approximate teshl -- >> at an event on violence against women, particularly on campuses. sexual assault on campuses. i'm here with casey hunt and john stand on. john, we should point out that joe biden has a lot of credit on this issue. he was the sponsor of the violence against women act and fought for the renewal. as we said earlier, not the greatest move at an event earlier today. this is an issue trying to energize women voters. >> college campuses give them a

two for. that gives the young base out that is difficult to do during any kind of a non-presidential year. in the second term, it is going to play towards their advantage with women right now that they have and they are trying to pad that and hopefully that can bring out voters where they are on the fence or having difficult tow keep the senate for them. >> in the last mid-term, the democrats got away with it because they had so many women who were angry over the things that some republicans said about forcible rape and all of that. republicans have been more careful this time around. they have to come up with other ways to energize. >> they have. senator portman said that. i was at a breakfast with him and they are focusing on issues that they care about. i was talking to one strategist who said as much as there is a focus on the difference with

hispanic voters, the thing they won't be able to overcome is the gap with especially single and unmatt unmarried women. those are the people who will walk away from the republican pert if they don't take aggressive steps to fix that. that's what you are seeing from the president and others, particular low in states as you mentioned colorado and north carolina that could make all the difference. >> hang here. we will be right back with more political news. casey and john, there is a lot more mid-term election politics. meanwhile, a 37-year-old man is being charged with arson after a massive wildfire in california that had driven nearly 3,000 people from their homes. the so-called king fire continues to grow, but not as substantially as in recent days. the blaze about 16 miles east in sacramento more than doubled in size on thursday. it remains just 10% contained. you are watching "andrea

so congress voted to authorize the president's plan to arm and train the syrian rebels with the vote last night. the debate continues among critics who worry about what's going to happen next. >> the moss-covered too long in washington crowd cannot help themselves. what we need is more war. they never pay attention to the results of the last war. we shouldn't give a free pass to forever intervene in the civil wars of the mideast. intervention created this chaos. >> congressman adam kinsinger is a member of the foreign affairs committee served in iraq and afghanistan and i don't think is moss-covered. what happened with that? don't you have concerns?

you heard rand paul if he is not already running for president. what about the fact that we get involved in the civil wars and see the blow back and the equipment we provided to the iraqi army is now being used by isis against us in iraq. >> the one person i will not take advice from is rand paul. it cut the military in half. i am not going to listen to what he has to say. i will say this. this is not a perfect strategy. the president needs to be more aggressive and talking about it more aggressively including robust air strikes in syria. that will pin down isis and prevent them the freedom of movement that they enjoyed and look, the free syrian army have been fighting on both fronts. this is the beginning of a process. if the president said no boots on the ground, you have to have people to occupy territory and take it away. this is the option here.

i think it needs to be more aggressive and we will see when the campaign in syria begins and it's massive. >> congressman, general clapper of course in charge of all the intelligence and the director of national intelligence said astonishing things. he said that there is an intelligence question. he said what we didn't do in vietnam is predict the will to fight. we didn't do it in vietnam. we under estimated isis and overestimated the fighting capability. i didn't see the collapse of the security force in the north coming. you probably know this as well. they are working for his dad in charge of all intelligence for the army and military in

vietnam. it was a father-son team and this is a pretty honest evaluation. >> i think so. there is no way i'm going to say this is a perfect strategy and it's flawed and short of 200,000 american troops. so rank and file melted away. they didn't have close air support which is an important part of any modern day military. this won't be done in 30 seconds

or 30 days, but this is the beginning of fighting back. we saw what happened in australia. that's coming here. we have to take them on and a radical who lived in australia had a patiently organized and working for isis and organized a threat that was thwarted and the australians say that the threat from isis was to grab people from the streets and behead them and make videos. it's incredibly shocking and scary yet at the same time you saw "the washington post" starting with general dempsey. they are not on the same page. they want a more aggressive posture. we need a more aggressive

posture. the president has been wrong to rule out boots on the ground. that's way worse. i don't think we need 100,000 american troops. in 1,000 or 2,000 rangers in general that could clear that out. he took that option off the table. i think this has to be aggressive. they have to push them out of syria and iraq. i will be optimistic that he will some day. >> okay. thank you so much. thanks for being with us today. advisers are already in iraq presumably they are wearing boots. what does the white house mean when the president promises no boots on the ground? stephen colbert had a unique take on that. >> obama said he wouldn't put boots on the ground, all right?

apparently that was a total crock. now he's flip flopping that makes the american people say ugh. i've always loved exploring and looking for something better. that's the way i look at life. especially now that i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat, not caused by a heart valve problem. i was taking warfarin, but wondered if i kept digging, could i come up with something better. my doctor told me about eliquis... for three important reasons. one, in a clinical trial, eliquis was proven to reduce the risk of stroke better than warfarin. two, eliquis had less major bleeding than warfarin. and three, unlike warfarin, there's no routine blood testing. don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding.

while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. those three important reasons are why eliquis is a better find for me. ask your doctor today if eliquis is right for you. this is holly. her long day of outdoor adventure starts with knee pain. and a choice. take 6 tylenol in a day or just 2 aleve for all day relief. onward! sfx: ambient park noise, crane engine, music begins. we asked people a question, how much money do you have in your pocket right now? i have $40, $53, $21,

about the race car part. altima, with 270 horsepower and active understeer control. how did you?...what! i don't even, i'm speechless. innovation that excites. . a number of national security priorities. i will get into it. first we continued to implement the strategy to go on the offensive against isil. we are focusing onlines of effort including using the unique capabilities to deny the safe haven and believe the international coalition to support the efforts. the president said we are pleased with the vote in congress to give us the necessary authorities to train and equip the moderate syrian opposition and we are grateful to the house and the senate for acting quickly on these

authorities. the reason this is so important is that our strategy entails using local forces to fight isil on the ground. iraqi security forces have taken the fight to isil along with the kurdish colics with u.s. support and obviously now will be in a ogz to train and equip the syrian opposition forces which will have the ability to do the same inside of syria. to be clear, the strategy does not involve troops on the ground in a combat role in either iraq or syria. and no u.s. troops will be in syria as part of the program. this will be hosted outside of the partnership with neighboring countries. earlier this week, the president underscored the importance and the comprehensive campaign to

combat isil. 40 countries have offered assistance and were pleased that france has joined us in conducting air strikes in iraq and many other countries from the region and beyond offering other important assistance. this afternoon, secretary kerry will be in new york to chair an important session of the security council on iraq and that session will underscore international support for the new inclusive government in iraq and it will galvanize and support efforts to build to degrade and destroy isil. this work of coalition building is ongoing. it is something that all of the president's senior advisers are actively involved in and the president himself and this process will continue through next week and beyond. another important element of the president's agenda this week was our trip to the cdc in atlanta

where the president outlined our intensified response to confronting the ebola epidemic in west africa. the president made clear this is a national security issue. >> national security adviser talking about the president as he prepares for the annual trip to new york for the united nations. he will be chairing a council meeting on counter terrorism. rejoining me now is washington's buzz feed.com. there were domestic political issues as well. one thing reporting that chris christie has been cleared by the federal investigators of allegations of having prior knowledge of political intent on the closing. >> finding out that they don't

know anything. that's the question whether or not he knew about this. there is a lot of damage done in the interim and chris christie will have to answer with donors and people who want to make a sound investment who maybe said you don't want to do anything criminal, but this is an admonths fear that would be problematic in the white house. whatever he had will hurt him a lot regardless of the out come. speak to that. what is front-runner status? rand paul would have more trouble and national security republicans and has more of a ground base.

rick perry wanting to run. the party has issues. they have a lot of mid-western governors who need to be tested. >> they are hoping to do that. they try to move things up and limit the debates. the one thing is this climate, people's attention spans are short and most of the public, even the primary voting public has not been that tuned in. in terms of the voters, the point about donors, that is a big problem for them. the early guys are getting bled off to marco rubio and rand paul and other people. even rick perry during this scandal. it will be difficult for him to pull people back and he has this problem of a jersey machine corruption image that surrounds him now. that will turn out voters and

will be difficult to get you to the white house. he will have trouble there. >> and kansas, the stream court voted and has spoken about chad taylor, the democrat and the notion of getting him off the ballot to give democrats a better run. >> being the independent, you have seen democrats in washington get excited about this. if you look at the campaign he is starting to run and it's just getting into full force, but you have a new ad out saying look, pat roberts is attacking me. that's like every other person in washington. the grand irony in a way is the arguments that his opponent was making against pat roberts saying he doesn't live here and he's gone washington, those work in a general election also.
