in europe or in the colonies -- >> dewitt would have originated here as far as i know. it wasn't a custom in england. yes, sir. >> was there any organized support in the colony, any of them which would call loyalist? >> organized support for >> loyalists supporting -- >> across the nation at least one-third of the population were absolutely loyal subjects of britain. in the debate over independence in the continental congress, only days before the actual declaration of independence, john dickinson of philadelphia offered at the olive branch petition to the king pledging the american loyalty to the king, the love of the king, love of being british subjects and simply asking for him to control the parliament and let us raise our own and taxes and keep parliament out of hours. had he accepted the olive branch petition we probably could have become a member of the british commonwealth. so there was a tremendous amount of loyalty, and even a loyalist forces. there was a major battle that often not mentioned, and i don't know whether this is prejudiced or what, but the major

so the biographies haven't been justice and partly the haven't done justice to the shah and dewitt haseen commissioned but part of it has been because it hasn't been impossible to write in my view the document account of the revolution because some of the most critical documents we needed declassified post in the american archives and the british archives there is a 30 year rule. most of the documents are classified, some are classified for 70 years and they get declassified in a sequential fashion and essentially had to wait until 2009 for some of the most important documents to be classified. literally the part about the nuclear program, the documents i needed that i have used to write history of the shah's nuclear program or to plus point about three months before the book went in to press the classification of the bucha have to realize the entire chapter because about a thousand pages of documents were available. sweet is now urgently needed for reasons that i have explained, and it is now more than everything possible if one doesn't want to - or d - and i tried to do neither. i tr

] >> my name is scott, and i want to ask you if israel had the opportunity to take out, would the dewitt? i've seen him give speeches on the cover and all of that. >> i think if israel had told leaders of hezbollah in the past, and he's been in charge since 1992, at this point, i am not sure israel could do it. the security precautions that he takes and such during the war in 2006 is certainly one to strike and in the past a think it was a time when they decided they kept getting worse and worse they would get someone who is better and that's what happened between 90 to 92. they killed the predecessor about who had already begun to reemerge as the guerrilla war and endicott knous rollin who turn hezbollah into the force we know today. so on one level, i think israel isn't sure whether it just makes it worse, and at this point i don't think they have a choice. but there's an important implication which is how important is the person to hezbollah's success? and there is a lot of different views on this. certainly this by is without peer in the politics today if he were to disappear from th

. >> dewitt seamlessly carry on and it's never been about one person. >> starbucks is well known forits focus on the corporate responsibility as the company moves onward. how much more will starbucks continue to pioneer social responsibility initiatives like energy efficiency, water storage shed and the rest? >> i've said some things in the last few weeks publicly about the response of the of corporations in america. let me say at this by. we all have parity in the marketplace in terms of the organization and things we do, and i feel very strongly that the consumer today has begun to make decisions not only on what things sell for they are making binding decisions on the values of the company's stand for and whether those values are consistent with their own so first and foremost it's very good business to embrace the social conscience of what a company needs to stand for but what i said publicly is if i look at wisconsin and i look at ohio about what's going on there i think one thing that is evident to me is that we are living in a time when states are having significant challenges

recognize myself for eight minutes, and first i'd like a short answer if you need to get a laundry answer dewitt in peril. are you, ms. richards, involved in the nation-building, is your organization involved in nation-building? >> as a country? >> yes. >> because i think it carried a lot of baggage and it's a term that has been bandied about in many ways and is not a political consensus behind nation-building. >> i love ngos and i love what you do. i am a huge fans and i couldn't even be in partial but i'm going to try because i love the fact i'm a former peace corps volunteer. i just have a general sense you reach people and listen to people and are doing more with the need but there are criticisms. it's hard to measure. you're involved in capacity building and empowerment and democracy training. getting people to realize the could put their head out of the ground and make a suggestion and they won't be ripped off and they can ask their neighbors what they think and build consensus. overseas in some places that foreign but how we measure it? mr. bowers, how we measure it? >> we have a clear si

sallai dewitt obama would say to the broad issue of why he didn't make good on his promise to clean up the system and drive the lobbyists from the temple is the fact that when he got they're the system was in crisis and we were losing 80,000 jobs a month and the guy was down 5,000 points and the confidence was clashing and as we didn't have the luxury of remaking the system would be like rearranging the shares of the titanic he needs to make the system work and get it going again before he could address it, but once he did that the opportunity to reform it was lost because everyone became ensconced in their place. usually the other thing i hate about the obama administration is the way they make fun of liberals for saying we are disappointed in you. he should be saying okay i did my best i'm going to keep fighting. instead he said you whiny little twerps why don't you shut up and appreciate all was done for you, you make me sick. that is just plain stupid even if you think it's true. but in the case of the system he's got a pretty good argument he hasn't owned up and so can now i'm goi
