for moderate to severe alzheimer's. it works differently. when added to another alzheimer's treatment, it may improve overall function and cognition. and may slow the worsening of symptoms for a while. vo: namenda xr doesn't change how the disease progresses. it shouldn't be taken by anyone allergic to memantine, or who's had a bad reaction to namenda xr or its ingredients. before starting treatment, tell their doctor if they have, or ever had, a seizure disorder, difficulty passing urine, liver, kidney or bladder problems, and about medications they're taking. certain medications, changes in diet, or medical conditions may affect the amount of namenda xr in the body and may increase side effects. the most common side effects are headache, diarrhea, and dizziness. all my life, she's been there for me. now i am giving back. ask their doctor about once-daily namenda xr and learn about a free trial offer at namendaxr.com.

it's...and, we've solved... ata big problem.... bloomin' onion. aussie cheese fries. bloomin' onion. the loaded bloomin' onion... two outback favorites, together at last. hurry in...! it's only here till august 2nd!

this will be the nastiest general election in the history of our country. >> jeb bush, we call him low-energy, lyin' ted. >> it was spring, donald trump had become the presumptive nominee on the republican side and the general election was insight. throughout the primary year, trump knocked out his republican opponents in part by analyzing their weak points and slapping them with insulting nicknames that stuck. >> you go to his rallies, and they say lyin' ted. >> they know his lines because he drills it home again, and again, and again. >> we were all waiting for the hillary clinton brand to come out. >> and when i can focus on hillary, as i say, crooked hillary, when i focus on hillary, she'll go down easier than any of the people we just beat. >> and crooked hillary is what he's come up with. >> and we can all go against

crooked hillary clinton and beat her. >> and when he finally started calling her crooked hillary, we knew that we had reached a point where he was looking towards the general election. >> shortly after trump debuted crooked hillary, he had another line of attack. >> i think the only card she has is the woman's card. she's not nothing else going. >> mr. trump accused me of playing the, quote, woman card. well, if fighting for women's healthcare, and paid family leave, and equal pay is playing the woman card, then deal me in! clinton quickly retaliated with the official woman card web site. >> we came up with the idea of a woman's card, which unfortunately didn't give you a discount even though we don't get equal pay for the work we do. >> running against hillary clinton is very different than running against any one of those people that we ran against in the primary, and it's going to be a very difficult battle.

>> we're going to wage a positive campaign. i'm not going to respond to anything he says about me. >> hillary cannot get down, dirty, and in the trenches with donald trump. if it she responds, she runs the risk of being marco rubioized, and ted cruzed. whenever you climb down into the sewer with mr. trump, you're the one who comes out with the sewage. >> with six more big primaries looming in early june, including california and new jersey, hillary clinton still hadn't won enough delegates for the nomination, but seemed to turn her attention from bernie sanders to trump, launching a blistering attack on the presumptive nominee. >> donald trump's ideas aren't just different, they are dangerously in coherant. they're not even really ideas, just a series of bizarre rants, personal feuds, and outright lies.

>> as clinton went on the attack, trump accused a mexican-american judge in his lawsuit university, trump u, of having an absolute conflict because what trump said about those crossing the rio grand into the united states. >> the judge who happens to be which we believe, is mexican, which is fine, ought to look into judge curiel, because of what he's doing is a total disgrace. >> days after endorsing trump, paul ryan joined others in his party, strongly condemning the presumptive nominee. that same week, hillary clinton was making history. >> hillary clinton pulled off a monumental win in this state last night, the cap of her historic achievement. on june seventh, clinton's big primary win, notably in california gave her a decisive lead, in the delegate count and the popular vote. >> thanks to you, we've reached a milestone for the first

time -- the first time in our nation's history, that a woman will be a major party's nominee. >> during his victory speech, a noticeably restrained trump used a teleprompter, something he liked to ridicule. >> to all of those bernie sanders voters, who have been left out in the cold by a rigged system of super delegates, we welcome you with open arms. >> but sanders was not ready to give up that night. in fact, it wouldn't be until july 12th, more than a month later sanders stood alongside clinton and offered his formal endorsement. >> and i intend to do everything i can to make certain she will be the next president of the united states. >> and seeing the battle between trump and clinton would only continue to escalate. >> hillary clinton may be the most corrupt person ever to seek

the presidency. >> he's written a lot of books about business. they all seemed to end at chapter 11. >> hillary clinton a much stronger position than she was eight years ago. she's a more experienced candidate. trump has to convince the american people hillary clinton is the wrong type of person to be president, that he past makes her unacceptable. >> i hope in the end, the american voters will say to themselves, all this back and forth, all of these charges and counter charges, sort of fund to watch as a spectator sport, but it's now time to get serious. >> what's at stake in this election is one word, everything. >> who will be the victor between the two formidable opponents? during this unpredominatibleable year, even unseasoned positions are unwilling to have as guests. >> i tried it before. only god knows and she's not talking. >> the 2016 presidential battle

features two candidates with very different weapons. clinton offers something more familiar, more conventional policy, her stronger background in foreign relations and to many, more professionalism across the board. she promises to be simply better than we have before, better than we have now. trump offers not a refinement in our government, but something about the country his. his ideas run along the ideas of nationalism, in trump's eyes, it's us against mexico that won't stop illegal immigration, china that manipulates its currently to steal american jobs, and those who benefit from asia and from our protection, but refuse their fair budden, and about this country getting shopped around, and donald trump ready, eager to shove back. one candidate is less exciting but to many, more assuring. the other seemingly the opposite. one set on firming up the system, the other on shaking it up. come november, the country will

choose. i'm chris matthews, thanks for watching. in one of the world's most beautiful vacation spots on one of the most popular holidays, terror. >> they started running. >> we were like sitting ducks. >> france is attacked again. >> thousands of people packed like
