hell the doctor told us that fatigue will be a big issue and that that can impact decisionmaking. the governor's lieutenant governor, boyd rutherford never held public office before he one the election in november. but he is a veteran of government service. as scott macfarlane tells us from the live desk. >> reporter: boyd rutherford served the federal government. he served as an appointee of bob ehrlich and appointee of former president george w. bush, serving in the u.s. department of agriculture during the bush administration. and with the u.s. jenner is advices administration. in his current position as lieutenant governor, the governor's harrowing task force and economic development council. while hogan is out, rutherford could be assuming the governor's place at state board of public works meeting, a board which very much directs state money and state projects and worth mentioning maryland has only had nine lieutenant governors in its history. the position was erased from the books in the 1800s and only

reinstituted in 1970. wendy? >> scott mcfarlane. the president and vice president will go to charleston on friday. president obama will deliver the eulogy at reverend clementa pinckney's funeral. today, crews cleaned up graph feet any from a confederate memorial in charleston, somebody spray painting the words "black lives matter" on the statue. all this comes amid growing calls for the confederate flag, state flag to be removed from the state house grounds in columbia. today the effort to remove that flag gained support from a number of republicans. governor nikki haley just changed her long-held position and called for that flag to come down. that reversal came hours after president obama reignited the race debate. steve handelsman on capitol hill now with more on all this. steve? >> reporter: jim, thanks, let's start with the flag. a lot of big names in south carolina politics are getting behind this now for the first

time, including some notable good old boys like republican presidential candidate, senator lindsey graham and the state's female minority governor. >> to say it's time to move the flag from the capitol grounds. >> reporter: south carolina's republican governor joined the campaign. the flag has flown at the state house for 54 years but the massacre in charleston and the revelation that racist dylann roof used the flag as his symbol is something she says the state cannot stand. >> the fact that it causes pain to so many is enough to move it from the capitol grounds. it is, after all, a capital that belongs to all of us. >> reporter: president obama president obama's statement on race was like a grenade using the actual n-word in a podcast interview to say racism still plagues america. >> and it's not just a matter of it not being polite to say [ bleep ] in public, that's not the measure of whether racism

still exists or not. >> reporter: news rippled out. our first african-american president used the n-word. >> sometimes you have to say things just to get somebody attention. >> is that what he was doing here, you think? >> that's what i think. >> i don't like the word. i don't think it should be used. and i really don't think we have a racism problem in the country. >> reporter: many disagree, after ferguson and baltimore and charleston. and the president is winning praise. >> america only responds to shock and awe. >> reporter: that flag coming down in columbia would show the church massacre was both. the sons of confederate veterans organization that claim 3s 0,000 members nationwide and says most of its members are horrified with the murders in charleston says it will fight to keep the confederate flag flying at the state house. i'm steve handelsman, news4. steve we have been asking you what you think about the president's using the word today

during that interview. more than 80% responded that it was okay for the president to use the word in the context that he did. you can continue to weigh in throughout this hour. you know, it's not just the south where you can find signs of the confederate battle flag. more people are noticing that symbol all across the washington area. news4's tom sherwood shows us where and the reaction people had to it today. >> reporter: the carolina church shootings has renewed the fierce fight over the confederate battle flag, a symbol of white racism or pride in long-ago battlefield heroism? this giant confederate flag flies every day on private property on i-95 just south of washington. the symbol was part of the memorial day parade here last month. but even in the nation's capitol with all 50 state flags are in union station, passers by are suddenly more aware of the mississippi state flag and its

confederate design. >> i think it's despicable and they should be removed in all government. >> i think it all represents something that's bad but it's not going to change any minds. >> worried about the mississippi flag at all, just because it has part of it the confederate nag, i think time to come down, put in a museum. the fighting was all around here and it was one of the fiercest battles. >> reporter: in fairfax county along route 50, the battle of ox hill deflected federal troops heading into washington. joe whitney, a 30-year student of civil war flags and their meaning defends the confederate flag as one of honor. >>er will the their homes and families to good fight and die for what they believed in. so, to us, it is not about cause it is just about honoring american soldiers. >> reporter: he opposes hate groups that abuse the civil war flag. >> symbol is a tool and a tool can be used for good or bad. i see american soldiers who fought and died. that's what i see. >> reporter: again today, republican leaders of south carolina were calling for the confederate flag to be taken

down at the state capitol. jim and windy? >> thanks, john. a stretch of warm days in these parts. this afternoon, not all that bad certainly not by yesterday's standards any how much georgetown waterfront, our kids found our kids -- our crews found some kids doing what any one of us would love to have been doing. change is coming tomorrow. more of us down there in that fountain tomorrow. at least we would like to be, wouldn't we, veronica? >> for sure. the early afternoon before it gets a little stormy. yes, we are expecting some thunderstorms to come rolling through here tomorrow, start cooling us off, before that happens, we are talking about record heat forecast for tomorrow and easily, our hottest day of the year got up to 96 that was last tuesday. check out the temperature right now, at least the high today 93 that was just an hour ago, 90, manassas and leesburg temperatures will start cooling off, right on down into the 80s as we hit 8, 9:00, 83.

an, aggressive strain and that he would soon begin a regimen of chemotherapy and he characterized what lies ahead as a rough road but he talked about his tenacity, other people talked about it as well and what he plans to institute in this battle against cancer is not just medicine. >> as i climb this hill, i remain comforted by my abiding faith that the lord continues to bless me and will be by my side with every step, granting me the strength to defeat this disease and the wisdom and the judgment to be the public servant, public steward that i was elected to be. >> i mean when you're going through, you know going through cancer and going through fighting it you need a healthy attitude of vigor for life. i think that's what you see in him. and that's going to be helpful. you know his father was former

county executive here congressman. his heart and soul is here in prince george's county. so our heart and soul goes out to them. >> reporter: of course, we heard there from prince george's executive baker how things like this, where political career and personal and family matters sort of collide and mesh and how the balance has to be struck. now, i did talk to the lieutenant governor, boyd rutherford briefly, just a few minutes ago. he says he has known about this diagnosis since saturday. he was talking to the governor then and he had been out of the country before that but he also talked about the personal relationship that the two have and how this is affecting him and his family on a personal level beyond the political. he did speak specifically about how this succession would be that he would be taking over some events like tomorrow there is a board of public works meeting that he would stand in for the governor but also mentioned that this administration has the same chief of staff for the governor and lieutenant governor and communications director so

have could have saved that young man, if somebody went in that building. >> reporter: the police department spokeswoman says it's unlikely with a gunshot wound to the back of the head that dorsey could have been saved. she says given what officers were told by the apartment's occupants, they had no reason to go inside during their first visit. >> at that point, we did not have enough to go in against their wishes. >> reporter: went to the spotsylvania home where dorsey's mom lives. i talked to his stepfather. she is too distraught to offer comment and he said simply, this should not have happened. back to you, wendy. >> julie carey. the fairfax county police department is making changes to its use of force policy. the chief requested a review from an outside group after he took over the department last year. that group just returned its report with 71 recommendations. most notably, training that includes role playing scenarios, crisis intervention strategies,
