that. remember this internet sensation well it looks like be crushed has finally faded and obama's number one fan is singing a different tune coming up we'll ask the obama girl herself why she's not indoors seeing the president and his class for reelection. and police raids are no doubt dangerous and often times deadly but a new indiana law tells civilians that if they feel bright and are allowed to shoot back is this the newest version of stand your ground and will it make citizens feel like they are above the law all that and more ahead.

it's tuesday june twelfth four pm here in washington d.c. i'm liz wall and you're watching r t. well she became an internet sensation when her song about her presidential crush went viral amberley at injure better known as the obama girl rose to internet stardom after making this music video back in two thousand a. year. old.

well a video like that is sure to get president obama's young supporters all riled up but it turns out that her crush on obama turned out to be just that nothing but a short lived infatuation amber is now singing a new tune. and . that's right obama's so-called number one fan is telling the president to shape up or ship out and this time around the obama girl isn't endorsing obama why not well

she joins us now live to tell us amberley editor is in our l.a. studio welcome amber so thanks for having me are you still an obama girl. i guess that will never kind of go away i guess for me i'm just not as excited as i was last time and i think that makes sense i mean last time i was singing and dancing about i'm on rooftops and in subways i mean i can't keep are gone forever. but will you endorse him this time around. this time around i'm just not sure who i'm voting for i'm actually waiting to listen to more of the debates and kind of make my decision but even when i do make the decision i'm not sure i'm going to tell anybody just because this time around i'm not making videos so maybe it's no one's business maybe i'll keep it to myself this time but i'm not going to discredit him i think he's done a good job and i think whoever kind of gets in office this time around they're not going to be able to turn everything around one hundred percent there's just a lot to be done and there's no one guy that's a miracle worker that's for sure and that amber you were paid to make that music

video i understand is that correct yes and so you were paid to endorse obama. well in the beginning when when they approached me to do it i thought of it more as a funny political satire sketch and i never knew that it was going to turn into this big thing that i'd be talking about for year after year after year it's now five years i had no clue what i got myself into obviously i liked obama that's why i did it but i didn't know that it would make me this person that would be going on all news stations talking about who and why and what i'm crushing on and who i'm voting for i had no clue what i got myself into so i wasn't really like i was paid to endorse some it was more of an acting gig in the beginning that turned into something a little bigger. what were you hoping to achieve by making through the video did you just do it for fun or were you hoping to influence young voters to vote for obama. well ben rhodes is the creator and he had a bunch of intentions for that he launched a channel called barely political that was bought out by you tube and google they

have millions and millions of subscribers in this great you tube channel that you can go to and watch a lot of fun videos for me one of the best parts was getting the young people involved and being able to go to the debates in the primaries and talk to young people go to the white house correspondents' dinner so things like that we're all a plus i got to do saturday night live so a lot of things like that were exciting they talk about my video and history books it's a part of history now and i think that's what it was well worth it so it wasn't just about making a music video it sounds like you did want to make an impact at the time and try to stir up support for for president obama that is that is definitely what turned out to happen we made not just one video we made. over thirty videos during the course of his term before he got elected and then once he was elected i was like oh i guess i'll be making more of videos but then we kind of stopped and barely political went a different route now they make political music satires so yeah i don't know that's

why we're not really doing anything new recently all right well we saw your more recent video there kind of spin off grease and it doesn't seem like you still have a crush on him are your views on him changing. i think now i'm just a little bit harder to please i think everyone including myself i had really high hopes for him we got really excited he was somebody new and fresh he got all of us just super pumped up and maybe our hopes were a little unrealistic so i think that's what happened to compare it i hate to do this but to compare it's like a relationship if you meet a guy he's great you see nothing wrong with him and then as time goes by you know he has some flaws he's not as he's not always cracked up to be so he's great in the beginning and then then their true colors always great in the beginning. and very you're a democrat or republican. honestly i've voted both i hate to put myself in a box this time around it's going to be whatever i decide and it could be either or

maybe more independent along those lines along those lines up. what issues would you say are important to you. well i mean there's too many to discuss to discuss actually and when it comes to talking about this sort of stuff on t.v. or to anyone that's more knowledgeable than myself i don't feel right it's not my forte i didn't get involved in this because i was this political expert i am an actress i have learned a lot along the way and for me it's that's had has to be probably the least fun thing to talk about is politics so i'm just going to stay home if you know that your videos are. about politics it is what it satire it's satire it just has to get people excited to make them laugh and to not really take me too seriously so i wouldn't think satire the reason why i do it when you when you think satire am or you're thinking you're poking fun at something what exactly were you poking fun of

. i would say i was poking fun of myself i'm the one that looked like the idiot running around dancing about that i. can laugh at myself everyone should be very awful and some able to laugh at yourself but if you say you were a do endorse him obama if you were paid again do you need to be paid in order to to come out and make another video like that and show your support for a candidate. well just to be clear even though i was paid it was it was far from what people i think think i got paid. it really doesn't have anything to do with the money it's more about what i feel in my heart is right and what i want to do so right now i have no political agenda and i have no plans on making any videos and money is not even being discussed so has really nothing to do with that now your video you know i. tell young people a lot of young men for the most part i would assume and obama did have

a lot of young people rallied behind rallying behind him and the last election this time it seems like young voters are kind of becoming disillusioned and dropping out some of them saying they're not even going to vote this year what do you think is behind that yeah that that's really upsetting actually and it makes me kind of want to get back into this just to kind of talk to people i was thinking about you know within my slip cam getting on the road to to see what everyone's thoughts are but that's what i'm hearing across the board and i don't think i'm the only one that's like unsure and the only one that's not excited as we were we were hoping for massive changes and it just didn't happen but you know like i said i don't know if one person can do that congress in the senate are behind all this they're old school they've been doing the same thing they're maybe they're the ones that need to make change happen just the face you know ok so it doesn't seem like you are that impressed with president obama so would you ever become a romney girl. does it ever and keep asking me. honestly

i can't i can't say right now i have i have no clue i'm still my eyes and ears are open but i am impressed i think obama's done a good job i'm not discrediting him for anything it's done ok well good to keep an open mind you know who young people are seem to be rallying around this time around ron paul what about would you ever become a ron paul girl. i get e-mails about that weekly weekly no i don't want to be another person's girl i'm done with that one one one girl per president is enough in my life and well you know what amber look so you have some competition let's take a look at who you're up against. i am ready and i've been i mean i know i can take obama girl so i'm kind of just she is i'm kind of just chillin here like some least you know if they're around if you can't find one and you got to pay for one or find someone you can leave that doesn't count so he can't find one and then

there's a lot right there for electability but he really obama girls last well. that was a threat there. that she can smack i couldn't see here but it sounds like a late night talk talk line or what do you think she has anything on the amber didn't sound good i didn't see it but not don't think so i don't think so. is there any can do you said that you did this kind of more for fun is there any any candidate that you would refuse to make a video in support of you no matter what just goes against your morals and yet your standards i will not support this person and there's been quite a few and i've mentioned some in the past but then i wish i bit my tongue i hate talking bad about people i really do i'd rather keep it to myself i feel like if you have nothing nice to say don't say it at all that's a that's a good that's a good motto to live by so and realize you know that you said you're you're an actress and you're acting in real life would you be more inclined to have

a crush on obama or romney in real life obama obama like yeah. i don't know he's just got that charisma and he just just he's just got it same same as i felt for you four five years ago he has that he has a swag to him that no other presidents ever had and may not have for a long lag that is more in characteristic in a president gotta have that swag. so you're not obama's girl anymore what are you working on these days. i'm in acting school full time and i'm still developing my jewelry line inspired by amber so i'm i'm pretty busy on the acting front and i love living out here in california i just got out here from new york so i can't complain i'm keeping busy any more videos to look forward to on you tube on you tube yeah. you can and i have a channel yeah i mean my channels you tube dot com slash amber but no political

videos coming. out of. that was amberley thank you so much for coming on the show that was amberley out and you're a better known as the obama girl to hear more from her you can follow her at amber and you're on twitter thank you when we turn now to a controversial new gun law in the state of indiana police they're up in arms over a law that allows citizens to shoot them it's the first law of its kind in the u.s. and it allows people to pull the trigger if a cop unlawfully enters their home of course police are not happy about this law which is backed by the national rifle association but with a slew of recent slew of reports on police brutality is this power to the people or can this lead to a dangerous battle between public servants and civilians to talk more about this we're joined now by mark walters he is the host of the armed african radio and co-author of lessons from armed america. welcome to the show there

so allowing people to shoot police giving them this power does this empower citizens. hi liz how are you first thanks for having me back it's great to be here that's actually about what this does this is actually an amendment to what's known as the castle doctrine law that went into effect in indiana in two thousand and six i think the first thing to do is to start off probably with the fourth amendment to the u.s. constitution i've got a lot of notes in front of this is a fairly complicated issue but let's start with the fourth amendment to the u.s. constitution which clearly states that the right of the people to be secure in their per persons houses papers and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures seizures shall not be violated and no warrants shout issue but upon probable cause supported by over affirmation and particularly describing the place to be searched and the persons or things to be seized this case originally came up a gentleman by the name of richard barnes who had resisted officers what he felt

were illegally entering his apartment during what was called in by his wife at the time a nine one one call domestic dispute he resisted the entry by officers into the apartment he was charged with three misdemeanors was subsequently convicted issue was during that case his trial judge did not allow the jury to be told that he had the right under common law in indiana law at that time to reasonably resist what he felt was an illegal or a lawful entry by the police as a result the judge did not allow that the jury did not hear it he was convicted an appellate court overturned the conviction and then it went to the indiana supreme court if you're following me on this and the indiana supreme court overturned the of overturning his conviction letting his convictions stand and that's how we got where we are today ok and that is that is the president but this is just a one one incidence of police i guess misconduct and we are seeing more of the

reports of police misconduct in the country i think we have some statistics here they are i think these are the most recent it's back from two thousand and ten. we're almost five thousand ensign's reported almost three hundred fifty million dollars was spent in court battling the you know and with the thought of the next our next shot there most of the reported incident says are of police using excessive force so does this serve as a justification for citizens being able to pratt protect themselves against police . you know you have the right you have an inherent right as a human being to defend your wife what this does if we goes as ridgeley came out as s.b. one or asthe one number one which was signed by governor mitch daniels and what this exactly states is that a person is justified in using reasonable force against a public servant if the person reasonably believes the force is necessary to protect the person or a third person from what the person reasonably believes to be imminent use of on

lawful force by a public servant prevent or terminate the public servants unlawful entry or of attack on the persons dwelling or occupied motor vehicle or prevent were terminate the public servants trespass on or criminal interference with property lawfully in the person's possession now what this does not allow and it's clearly written into law and i want people to be very clear on this that notwithstanding and i'm quoting again from the law itself subsection i a person is not justified in using force against a public servant if the person is a committing or is escaping after the commission of a crime to the person provokes an action by the public servant with intent to cause bodily injury to a public servant or that the person has entered into combat with a public servant and so forth or of breton's to continue on lawful action in other words you cannot during the commission of a crime shoot a police officer none of none of the laws have changed in the state of indiana what happened is that the supreme court according to indiana's legislature and the

governor overstepped itself by removing the common law that had stood for years that says a person has the right to lawfully resist. on lawful entry into their home which was not even a part of the original case so they took legislative action to correct that and you know marc as with many laws the critics of this say that this can create this this slippery slope and raise questions on when it's in fact legal to shoot a police officer that it hadn't in fact provide justification for shooting a police officer. and the line there between what is allowed what's legal and what's not legal can be can get pretty blurry no question that you know law enforcement officers around the country if you're reading some of the forums and you know are standing up in arms i believe that many of those law enforcement officers are misinformed as to the law hopefully they're not getting their information from the san francisco chronicle or the cleveland plain dealer but the national rifle association has come up with

a number of countenance that countenances if you will to the missed that that the that s.b. one allows homeowners to shoot and kill police officers they believe are off on their property or their houses for example that's patently false it allows reasonable force to be justified when a person reasonably believes it is there is an unlawful entry by force and should be reasonable the defensive force must be proportional proportional to the reasonably perceived threat now you know a police officer doesn't have anything to worry about if they're not illegal if they're not doing anything illegal what they're concerned with and rightly concerned with is the perception by the public that they can get at the public can get away with something that they could have gotten away with prior to and they can't nonetheless this is starting a lot of controversy and a lot of fears among the police over there in indiana as to whether or not this will hinder them from being able to do their job well and i do want to bring up a quote from a police officer this was the from the san francisco gate says quote if i pull over

a car and i walk up to at and the guy shoots me he's going to say well he was trying to eat legally enter my property. somebody is going to get away with killing a cop because of this law and what do you think about that fear that police feel like their lives are in jeopardy now because shooting a police cannot be justified i don't believe it can be justified and i think that's an unfounded fear i'm not a police officer and i'm not the one approaching that vehicle so it's very difficult for me to speak to what's in a police officer's mind however it's illegal to shoot a police officer who approaches your vehicle on a traffic stop you're not going to be able to come up with that excuse i think that's an unfounded fear you know if you look at the way that these this law is written it's very clear when you look at s.b. one and actually read it when it a justifiable force is allowed and when it's not allowed but it does not give anybody the individual the right to shoot at a police officer but do you think this could put because you know police are

supposed to be public servants as this pending the public against the police. you know i don't think so i think it's a matter of how this is reported and how it's going to be perceived you know police understandably have every right to be concerned about the perception of the public in the way that this law is being perceived by the public as as a means of how it's being reported by quite frankly are responsible outlets i read the san francisco chronicle reports or read the cleveland reports and reports from across the country and they're quote it's a lot of fear mongering quite frankly none of them are going to the facts if you if you were to head over to the n.r.a. dot ira or n.r.a. ira page for example you can get the facts on the the minutes one of them it's just if a police officer is walking by a home and a woman screams because her husband is beating her that the husband can shoot and kill the officer for entering the home to get away with it that's patently false the individual is and is in fact committing a crime which is what is directly written into the law is illegal there's been no

change actually to indiana law as it stood prior to the original case that caused all of this problem they simply rewrote it back into the law. and i guess ultimately if police say if they aren't serving the public's interests why should they be treated definitely differently or from anyone else in terms of somebody feeling they feeling like they need to protect themselves against another person if they feel like their life is in danger. you're are you referring specifically to a police officer yes yes i mean in a situation like that where a police officer is breaking the law i guess that it does make sense that that there is no differentiation between a police officer and a civilian if in both cases that they are breaking the law and you feel like your life is in danger well i've nobody supports law enforcement more than i do on armed america radio and i'm an avid supporter of law enforcement across the board but there are also cases there as i said last time i was on your show there are bad

police officers there are bad judges there are bad lawyers there's someone from every walk of life sitting in a jail cell somewhere in the united states of america today for committing a crime simply because someone puts on a uniform or puts on a badge does not make them an inherently good person that person can commit a crime and you showed statistics as well. if i'm sitting at home at three o'clock in the morning in my door gets kicked and i have a right to defend my life and my family by firing my weapon to stop that if that were to happen to be police officers on the other side of that door am i right in doing that if they were at the wrong home i may be right in doing that but i might be right in doing that posthumously as the rethread of return force on me will be greater than what i acted upon so yeah it's a thin line there's no question about it i understand law enforcement is concerned and it's really sad that we got to this point from the indiana supreme court who overstepped their bounds when i do want to ask you one more question mark we don't have that much time left but the national rifle association lobbied for this law

this is the same organization that lobbied first stand your ground which is both of them are an expansion of the castle doctrine and stand your ground is getting a lot of controversy right now over what happened in florida so keeping in mind that this is the n.r.a. is one of the groups behind this law could it be about expanding gun rights. i don't think it's about expanding gun rights nobody supports law enforcement more than the national rifle association and millions of their members or hundreds of thousands of their members are law enforcement agencies across the nation in local county sheriffs federal agents and so forth are all member a lot of them a large majority of them are members of the national rifle association with the n.r.a. was doing here and looking at some of the research i've done is simply go back to put into place into the castle doctrine which apparently was gutted by the indiana supreme court overstepping its bounds they went ahead and replaced it with the language to give that already back to the citizens to be able to defend themselves

against what we know in common law for hundreds of years as an illegal entry not arrest in the right to resist the arrest because they'll be charged but the right to resist an illegal entry ok and you know mark this is the first law of its kind in the us that allows for this for citizens in some instances to be able to shoot police if they feel like they're in danger i do think this is going to set a precedent and do you expect other states to pass similar laws well i won't disagree with the way that question was phrased only along the lines that we don't have a right to shoot police officers if you shoot a police officer you're going to do an awful lot of time if you survive it's that simple what this does was give the person the right to resist an unlawful entry into their home and expanded on the castle doctrine now many states across the across america already have in to have under common law the right that this law put back into place that the indiana supreme court removed and many believe overstepped their bounds and really quickly at the end of the day did mark do you think that

this makes us safer. are you yes i do but i also see the perspective from one force and it's a little bit too soon to see what's going to happen here hopefully everybody gets their wits about him and law enforcement stay safe that's the ultimate goal officer said mark thank you so much for coming on the show that was mark walters host of arms american radio and co-author of lessons from armed america. the capital account is up next on our t.v. let's check in with laura lister to see what's on today's agenda lauren what do you have going on over there hi liz well it took less than twenty four hours for the news of the spanish bank bailout to turn for a good news potentially to not good news at all to just more of a crisis mode we saw that was spanish government yields today maybe because the ball market realize that this bank bailout makes the spanish government insolvent if it
