here's an essential principle, as holland and you both know. these are public airwaves we're talking about. we the american people owned public airwaves. they're the licenses given so they can operate these -- station owners -- operate these airwaves in the public interest. they are not serving the public interest if they are only serving one kind of programming that appeals to the far right. at least half the people in this country are not extreme right and yet as you see there, you have one hour of liberal talk for everybody ten hours of conservative talk. so, ed, i think the fairness doctrine would just require -- i'd be for bringing it back. what it would require is that every station has to have a mix of voices. you can't just be all far right. there's more than that i think we need -- just quickly. we need to do something. you touched on it. about ownership. because today a company could go in, buy all the stations in one town like here in washington, d.c., and put on all right-wing programming and that market is not served. >> holland, t

joseph holland is the elections registrar for santa barbara county. >> elections are not simple.ion is different. believe it or not they do change from election to election. >> reporter: that can leave independents like nancy pretty confused. on a local level or congressional races primaries are often where the key political decisions are made. say you're an independent living in a heavily democratic district. if you can't vote in the democratic primary you're not going to have much influence over who wins the general election. it's probably going to be a democratic candidate you had no role in choosing. in the 2008 presidential primaries independents in 17 states and the district of columbia were shut out of crucial primaries. those voters had no say at all in determining the major party candidates. >> we are second-class citizens when it comes to political representation and participation. >> reporter: jason olden is an independent voter activist pushing to change the law in california. this june there's a proposition on the state's primary ballot to eliminate party primaries e

with you have to emphasize when we look at the relevant pool of countries it is amazing norman -- holland and japan and norway and sweden and germany have secured it out. they are not a police state societies with news and information and journalism. one of the things in the buckweed said let's have subsidies similar to the founders the postal subsidy case in point* that made the abolitionist movement possible. that was the entire movement in the northern half could not survive they relied on that postal subsidy but it also went to papers. every paper qualified we're interested in subsidies but nobody says you qualify and you don't. there is objective criteria. you can do that. it is not impossible. we have spent deflated by our politics we have lost the fact that you can governor own lives. it is ironic we cannot governor sells and we cannot solve this problem. one other point*, we're big believers and libertarians additions. you go through several ideas and it is a way to funnel public money with nine public ventures online and they decided they give the money you're not. that it is alw

attorney general van holland joins us live, good evening sir. >> how are you greta? i've seen the letter that you wrote the governor of your state, governor doyle. apparently, tell us, he won't let you sue. >> well, we've written a letter to the governor and to the leadership in both the house and senate in wisconsin. any of them could give me authority to sue. one has to give me authority or i can't. so far the leadership in both houses and the governor has not told me, but told members of the press they are not going to give me the authority to sue that doesn't mean the battle is over. the full bodies of either house can still call for a polling motion through a procedural motion can bring this to the floor for a vote and i think we've got a chance of prevail going that were allowed to occur. >> greta: are you a republican, sir? >> i am. >> greta: and the governor is a democrat. you said you haven't heard from him. i saw a letter dated march 25th, are you telling me i the letter that he was not going to give you permission to sue before you one? >> he must have got

van holland. >> the gentleman is recognized for 45 seconds. >> thank you, mr. speaker.ngerous device invented in nazi germany, a method for imposing stalinism. those are the statements made by the opponents of medicare, medicaid which now provides coverage to 45 million americans. this legislation insures that 32 million more americans have access to affordable health care and no american is held hostage to the abuse of practices as in the insurance industry. as in 1965, we have the rhetoric of mass distortions. leader boehner said this bill means armageddon. the day after the legislation is signed by president obama, the world will see it's not coming to an end, there are no death panels. they see a system that works for them and not the insurance industry that's spending millions of dollars to kill the bill. >> at this time, mr. speaker, i yield 45 seconds to the distinguished leader of the ways and means mr. bustani. >> we have compassion for families struggling, those who lost jobs, those who lack access to health care. we all want to do what's right for our country

and so, they would say i think i got out of the navy and then removed and then alex okay, no holland,hat's completely wrong. that didn't happen, beget the same time that they tell me how i what happened when the ship sunk. it's not like getting money out of the atm. and the room would go quiet and the story would begin to emerge adjust to these men were as human beings, as american citizens, as our fathers and grandfathers really touched me and i try to tell it from their point of view. so that when i came to 2001, i think the challenge is that for myself as can you do that with the modern soldiers as well? what i didn't understand and you may have found some of the same challenges that when you interview people who are of the generation, they're typically retired when i were to interview with them that was to the out to dinner and paid for it at the red lobster and they were my grandparent. calling a man in his early middle-age who is part of his special forces group out of fort hamilton kentucky as part of the u.s. military that really almost never cooperated with any writer in any

. >> congressman chris van holland chairs the committee he serves as speaker pelosi's assistant. congressman, you know, health care has been such a tough battle. this year-long battle. is this really the way that democrats want to pass this legislation, essentially using this kind of legislative trick? >> well, what we're finding, campbell, is our republican colleagues no longer want to talk about the substance of the bill and the merits of the bill and how it will reduce premiums and how it will prevent insurance companies from denying coverage to people who have preexisting conditions, and they want to focus on process. but what they're not telling people is what we're going to pass in the house is an amended version of the senate bill. they are trying very hard to create the impression that the house is just going to be passing the senate bill. and that's not the case. and by the way, this is a procedure that has been used many time and was used by republican colleagues on a budget reconciliation bill as recently as 2006 when they were in the majority. it's a little bit of cro

and the places they've visited where yemen and saudi arabia and they spend a little bit of time in holland and germany, and one of the things i will get into saudi arabia and yemen but one of the things they heard about in holland especially with respect to the amsterdam airport was the kind of behavior a system or profiling that takes place some of those airports to hit the israelis are noted for these techniques but i'm told you have airport security officials who try to identify and prevent bad guys from getting on airplanes and causing trouble. they do it in part by observing that passengers and by understand airports position while trained personnel at various points to ask questions politely to scrutinize expressions to check out body language and speech patterns. i don't know if it is a good idea or not. the israelis think it is and some other countries do as well. but i would just be interested in hearing of the thoughts of our witnesses today on this type of screening and to ask if you think there is something that we can learn from what some of these other countries are doing. >>

and then there came this experiment, like the pilgrims who came from holland to america, people who came to get away from persecution as christians and they came here. and after that first horrible winter when the pilgrims decided to try a new idea and give everybody private property and you live off what you grow and you can trade or sell what you have left, this private property concept began to grow and flourish and free enterprise took over. and just in the short years, relatively speaking, this country advanced far more than the whole human race did in 5,000 years, just in a couple hundred years. and it was when the entrepreneurial spirit was given a chance to just grow and flourish. because you see what happens when the government takes over health care. in those countries, they meant well. they thought would be so much better. we give people government-control-type choice. and then you come back to the statistics, we have been told so often, gee, canada, europe and england, their health care is so much better than ours, but you compare cancer rates. if you got cancer, you want to
