a favorite state powered europe as it walks much vaunted democracy is seen as being plays on the back burner in the face of a detonating debt crisis. and the syrian president refuses to crack under international pressure while the threat of further sanctions and tough diplomatic taps still fears you're about to see another reinstall of intervention. now injury away the editor and publisher of the nation magazine is coming your way here are today. artie's during the break it's there have been some who vote at the turn publisher of the nation magazine katrina's new book has just come out it's time to look at the change i believe in fighting for progress in the age of obama katrina thank you very much for joining our team thank you and so for having me on your interest obama's candidacy you supported him you just celebrated his victory in two thousand and eight i know that his presidential term is coming to turn around do you feel

disillusioned my view as editor of the nation which indorsed president obama was that we needed to understand that one man one woman even a president cannot change the political system in one to three years that our system is so complicated and corrupted by money by establishment power that it takes movements from below allied with politicians of conviction inside i think president obama has been a reform president in many ways he has passed two major pieces of legislation one on health care financial reform. but they have been diluted by lobbyists by money did he change the culture of washington not really he tried but one has to understand that the republican party are second nature party in the united states came to power not interested in working with them interested in undermining him but do you think it's fair to place blame on the do nothing congress i think one has to

assign much blame but i also think that blame is to be assigned to a number of areas and i regret that his leadership style has been too conciliatory his mantra of audacity was replaced by conciliation and a divided democratic party in many ways did not allow obama to do as much as he wanted but on balance it is disappointment as we head into the election of two thousand and twelve yet. there is also renewed excitement among americans because there is a movement brewing in america not just the occupy wall street but the two thousand patents the prior around america and also the sense that suddenly the ninety nine percent of americans who are not the heard from are being heard from and heard in the media which is not paid attention until now i know you have been watching this movement very closely what should be done to keep it. to nuts to moralize i'm sure

you understand that in america until just recently the mainstream media in our country thought there was only one movement the tea party now they see there not only people in occupy wall street or occupy to lead in ohio or occupy austin in texas but there are hundreds of groups working on issues from hoping people with foreclosure and mortgages to hoping students with their loans these groups are now being super charged by the new environment and we also need people to run for office and there are candidates now like a lizard with warren a woman running for the senate in massachusetts where tammy baldwin a woman running for the senate in wisconsin these are women who represent the ideas of occupy wall street so it will carry on in different ways so i think it can turn into a real poll for political movement you think of the civil rights movement in the sixty's it helped bring about the voting rights act the labor movement made franklin delano roosevelt a more radical president and the new deal something that was of greater help to

people than it might otherwise have been the environmental movement all of these movements have brought about the transformational change that president obama spoke of but you cannot expect one man one woman one leader to do without the support but do these protesters have any plan and they call themselves the ninety nine percent but obviously it's very hard to agree on many things if you are the ninety nine percent ninety nine percent oh. if america does agree on certain things it agrees that again the very rich should pay higher taxes that students shouldn't have to go into a major debt to get an education in a country that was founded on the american dream on upward mobility should now have downward mobility and that the inequality in our country is so there's a lot of agreement it just hasn't been represented in our politics and our electoral politics and that disconnect. is dangerous and that has to shift and that

will be very difficult even the president has responded to the protesters and many in our congress have but don't you think that this will become a response to obama's failed policies are these protesters as anti obama as they are anti wall street know they are much more and wall street. it's interesting that it is not i mean there is there is good you know what it is much more than an obama and it's a you know it's a global phenomenon you know this and that's something you look tunisia egypt spain there is a sense that politics is not working governments are not working for ordinary people that they don't have the legitimacy the trust of people but there's no question that there's a sense that obama and the administration feel to grapple failed to provide enough for a real economy main street recovery which many protesters actually associate obama

with wall street because he is the one who works with larry summers is the one who works with the same team basically of it used to rescue wall street there is anger probably more anger at larry summers than there is seriously at obama there was a little bit of this mentality of the zor like desire or was taken on taken in by his advisors but again it is deeper than obama it really is and this is a book about. disappointment in the age of obama first and foremost but it is also a book of hope that change is possible if people don't give up if they don't lose hope if they don't play what i call the betrayal sweepstakes which means always moaning and whining instead of organizing and fighting for progress for reforms they could improve the condition of people's lives is a bummer fighting for progress if we talk about his foreign policy great

disappointment that he has for the most part in many ways continue the abuses and excesses of the bush era on the other hand he's beginning to pull out of iraq he is beginning to pull out of afghanistan but it is still the mindset of a national security state and the new forms of warfare are very dangerous drone warfare. is. targeted assassinations this is the new face of warfare the new we as citizens have to demand of our government that there are new ways of transparency that they disclosed to us they are doing in our name all around but at the belmont positioned himself as a politician who opposed to military interventions who promised to close guantanamo and to pull out of afghanistan however none of this has been achieved do you think he was unable to stick to his principles if we paid attention and a lot of my colleagues did not pay close enough attention to obama he in many ways

was not the most populist in the race and if you remember what interest what was important was he opposed the war in iraq but he would say on the campaign trail we must get out of iraq so we can fight the good war in afghanistan so that was always there but what about guantanamo and the sleepy oppression many say he is a later version of push that guantanamo the president tried to close but he did not by. hard enough and republican congress and democrats refused to pass legislation to allow. civilian trials or to bring detainees into this country and others he could have fought harder but he did not he's not bush lite but what he has done is continue the national security state in ways that have disappointed many and on libya. he went to the united nations he did get a resolution but it was

a different kind of warfare again and an abuse of nato which is an institution in my view which should be abolished and other institutions should be supported like the united nations how do you assess obama's handling of the arab spring how does the arab world see obama now he still supports that this process between israel and palestine he didn't back that posting and prayed for statehood plus his relations with iran continue to sour and we all remember that after bush to reengage with the middle east and now it seems that he has to remain gauge for the middle east once again will he be able to do that you know he gave a speech as you know in cairo in two thousand and nine which in many ways you could argue opened the door for some of what we saw in the arab spring it really did speak to the possibilities of democratic uprising it was a great disappointment of course that he didn't support the palestinians bid for u.n. . quazi membership on iran there is a great. neo-con still constituency in the us pushing for tougher measures with

iran there is no great leadership in the white house but there is also no interest in war i think it is best for the green revolution even though it is now quiet and suppressed to emerge on its own terms because the united states when it gets involved can often stigmatize or taint dissidents because they look like they're proxies for the united states let's not talk about how americans see obama's foreign policy can they regard the killing of bin laden and the killing of khadafi as a bomb us foreign policy credentials you know i'm not happy about it i mean i think you know. bin laden should have been brought to justice and put on trial and dispatch to life life life and but what it has done enough is in those two incidents it has neutralized if not ended the view that democrats are quote

soft and weak on national security he will sell those two issues absolutely osama bin laden in the course symbolizes the horror and terror of nine eleven but you know in this election the economy is what's going to matter in the let's say obama is not reelected what's legacy will he leave behind probably as the first african-american president is that you know in light of the history of america and the terrible racism in the civil war that is the bloodiest war america ever fought that's a lot. but that will be the main. legacy if it's a one term presidency. if it's a two term presidency. it's the history still unwritten. that history is still under thank you very much for a time constraint thank you. tragically

in ghost towns. squandered money. what is much. more than sixty square kilometers of the mahmoud from the mistakes. and those who are still surprising new lives i'm finding we're just. getting bad out here but not saying hardly any birds squirrels you know. you know i don't know what's going on here. on the creek on our chief.

of the. just seems. silly. to. say. if you. are going to take three. or three. major months three. three. two three. three blokes in a live video for your media projects a free meal guns r t dot com. well

a second yellow card and went off the home side and nine points clear across all the top one l.t. and i will points from safety. cream on the first of saturday's one and i think he saw come from behind win two one at nine months old and a gritty encounter i started well with alexander but there's a lot of opening up the seven minutes however of booking each side of the interval so vulgar is. sent off and two goals in a minute from bitterly christian and then. but down in front to one of the half an hour but with five minutes to go bald is a bordello of sure straight red. mist penalty two one three one to leap frog boulder and go fall in the relegation table. and in the other game on saturday terry neal neal at home she clearly is to get this the first draw between the sides in eleven games both teams had their chances to win but failed to

take them and afterwards terex manager stanislav yourself said the side had lost points. but i've been england match the city maintain that five point lead at the top but only newcastle's unbeaten run with a three one win at the end he had stadium two penalties and a macquarie strike did damage that mean leighton baines and the team that helped everton come back to beat will see one person's breakthrough arsenal come back to win two one at nori to keep going as manager asked them saying they are playing down suggestions this season might be his last club heidi helgason netted twice as q.p.r. only two and three to win it stokes sunderland against fulham this goal is and how they handle early strikes gave manchester united big three about swans a chain long second half when they gave west from the victory of a potent and a very good school twice including in the ninth minute of stoppage time and man blast burns three three three we will get. that mixed martial arts and russian
