[ applause ] the reality of this effort is we're not there yet. we're not there for millions of ame

mrs. kennedy? >> it is not silver, it is all gold.'s silverware, but so many have been lost or copied. and you see so many of the old services that the presidents had were destroyed and broken, so now that the truman and the eisenhower china is all that there is enough of to use. >> mrs. kennedy, this administration has shown a particular affinity for artists, musici musicians, writers and poets, and is this because you and your husband feel that way, or do you think that there is a relationship between the government and the arts? >> that is so complicated. i don't know. i just think that everything in the white house should be the best. the gruffy voice, and the mad man suit, and this is hardly a example of a woman exercising political power, but don't be fooled. this is not a glorified housewife showing off the decorations. as part of the restoration effort, jackie kennedy worked to restore the property of the white house, and her tour was distributed to 106 countries as a coordinated propaganda effort. you see in the heat of the c

mr. kennedy. mr. kennedy, president obama addressed apec today and be tomorrow will be meeting with mr. netanyahu of israel. what does it take to have our president, obama, lead with and talk to the black community who are suffering so badly under our current recession with the same seriousness, respect and accommodation? what can we do ourselves as a group to assure our civil rights? >> host: we're going to have to leave it there, sandra. >> guest: i think that the president on an ongoing basis is, um, meeting with various sectors of the black community. i think it's a mistake to think that he is, you know, indifferent to the black community. i think he is very aware of various problems the black community faces and that, in fact, he's doing what he thinks he can to help black americans along with other americans. do i agree with all of what the president says? no. and in my book i'm critical of him in certain ways. but by and large i think the president of the united states is doing what he can to advance the interests of all americans. >> host: and that'll have to be the last word. o

mr. kennedy. i hope ryan and his wife did to take that trip to west virginia and look at all the sites named after senator byrd. thank you for c-span. host: thank you very much on behalf of us who helped put the network together. let's take our next phone call from milwaukee. this is robert who is a democrat there. caller: hello, susan. i am an african-american. in reference to the constitution everybody is speaking of, i believe they said that african- americans or blacks were 3/5 human beings. now if we are going to go strictly by the constitution, that puts me in a very unwelcome atmosphere. also, ought we are going to have an election in the state of wisconsin for governor. i think he may lose his governorship. i am almost sure he is one to lose his governorship. host: the other story this week was the president's rose garden meeting of an to influence a senate vote on oil and gas subsidies. this twi says -- here is a washington post story about that. you look -- you are looking at pictures fr

recognizing the double cross, kennedy made clear what he was about to do was this. mr. ennedy told the steel company big shot. when you are doing right now is in the best of interest your shareholders. i'm going to do everything in the best interest of my shareholders. the people of the united states. kennedy knew at that moment the steel executive was screwing him. that he was not only raising prices, he was doing it with impunity. he was leaving kennedy out there on a limb with labor. kennedy went into action. his brother bobby went after the steel executives in a way that they couldn't take the heat. expense accounts were checked. hotel bills. anything that could embarrass the big men who just thumbed their nose. not just at the president and the workers, but at their country. they were quite willing to drive up inflation if it drove up their profits in the bargain. kennedy won that fight. big steel buckled pulling back its price increase, accepting the terms of the deal. the deal that it made. it wasn't pretty. it was barely legal, but kennedy had shown some big shot

mrs. kennedy.plained what it was i said that is an interesting job and something i would like to do some day. >> shannon: what does that take to say i want to step up and protect the president. what does it take to do that? >> well, in terms of willingness more than anything. you have to be willing to do it. it is a life of sacrifice. long hours, little sleep. a lot of jet lag, missing food, water. nutrition basically. you take very dedicated people and you train them and train them and train them until they are up to the task and when people first come into the secret service they don't start out protecting the president. they start out in the field office. is really your tryout for the detail and if you do well, there then perhaps you will go to the presidential detail one day. we find that the best protection agents are the best investigative agents. >> shannon: i found it fascinating, too, tha your wifs also a retired agent and you shear the story about meeting on the job and experiences you bo

kennedy. >> mr. secretary, your pledge of $170 million as a navy share of a $510 million effort to construct or retrofit biofuel refineries. where's the authorization for that action? >> comes from the defense production act and from appropriation made. >> authorization? appropriation. i'd be glad to know where it is in that act. by the way, if i can just mention, mr. chairman, last year the navy entered in 2000 -- in 2009 they paid 424 a gallon for world record at the time 330 million gallons per year of alternative 50% of the alternative sources by 2020. with no -- at no price or cost there. i don't believe this is a job of the navy to be involved in building and involved in new technologies. maybe this will be a solyndra situation. i don't believe it's a job of the united states navy to do that. i believe it's the energy department who should be doing that and obviously i will seek to act on amendments on the floor to try to prevent this kind of waste of the taxpayers' dollars where they paid for

the headline "kennedy's influence haunt romney's career." sang, tried to distance himself , mr. romney cannot escape senator kennedy's influence. guest: i did a piece in "mother jones" in the past for the found video ofi the bill signing ceremony. and it, mitt romney just praises ted kennedy profusely for the health care initiative. i answer -- i am sure she mentions that in this article. i am stunned that newt gingrich's campaign and a santorum's campaign have not used that in a commercial attacking mitt romney. pirelli is every conservatives nightmare to see mitt romney standing next to ted kennedy and acting like the best of friends. it is just part of this albatross that mitt romney has around his neck during his campaign. >> back to the book. utah, the so-called cable chatter. you're right -- guest: the guy is human. he knows what is going out there. he read and pretension to this stuff before he was elected to the white house and understands the importance, but a lot of interviewers have cost me, did anything surprise you when you did this book? i would not call it surprise

mr. gorbachev who called president kennedy a great president. that doesn't happen often, when a soviet leader would call an american president a great leader. well, anyway, i came to washington, and there were no ideological spies any more. illusions were all just destroyed. and we were just capitalize on those who wanted to make money. i will just mention one case, because it may be interesting how you treat intelligence and what may happen. john walker was one of the guys i admired. he was a totally money-motivated guy, he was a volunteer, and we befriended him. he would work for the next 20 years, and recruited his son and brother. anyway, in 1968 i'm acting chief of kgb station in washington. and august 21st, i believe, the soviet troops are about to move into czechoslovakia to crush the you know, anti-socialist elements. and i receive a cable from moscow saying they informed the ambassador -- at that time, for many years, 20 years or, so never became minister, because he was distressed with the united states -- so i come to ambassador to sh

[applause] the reality of this effort is that we are not there yet. we are not there yet for millions of americans suffering the ravages of chemical addiction and mental illness. i remember when paul first got me involved in this effort in 1996. i remember him saying that we have a long hard road ahead of us because we are going to run it sen

i think for reasons that justice kennedy suggested in one of his questions to mr. long, all of the other doctrines that -- exhaustion of remedies and related doctrines would still be there. and the united states would rely on them in those circumstances. and so i don't think the answer is that they can all go to court -- >> two former commissioners of the irs have filed a brief saying your interpretation is going to lead to a flood of litigation. now, they're wrong on that? >> yes. we don't -- we have taken this position after very consideration. and we have assessed the institutional interests of the united states. and we think we're in the right place. >> but tell me something. why isn't this case subject to the same bars that you list in your brief? the tax court at least so far constitutional challenges to statute. so why isn't this case subject to a dismissal for failure to exhaust? >> we don't -- because the exhaustion would go to the individual amount owed, we think. and that's different situation from this case. if the court has no further questions. >> tha

kennedy. it was fine, as far as he was concerned. he called up mr.dixon and then henry kissinger, who at first was also not determined to pursue this or the ones who finally raised the issue to something of importance from mr. nixon and then the question is, so how did he respond? the first thing he did was to seek a prior injunction through but they actually enjoin the american society from discussing the subject. it was the same kind of an approach to an issue when a reconnaissance plane was shut down. now, since i thought about this point earlier, i ran and looked for this little piece of paper, which happens to be the record of the national security council meeting. the first and only national security council meeting that mr. nixon held in the context of the pentagon papers leak. it was held at 3:30 p.m. on the 17th of june, 1971. mr. nixon both opened and closed the meeting. he opened by saying that a number of u.s. presidents, if you wanted to get something into the new york sometimes, the thing that you needed to do was to declare it top secr

kennedy was a leader. he is the cosponsor on all of these bills. you know for how many years, mr. president? 12 years. 12 years ted kennedy fought for women to get access to contraceptive coverage in their insurance. so i just say to my republican friends, don't come to the floor and invoke the name of our dear colleague. i was so proud the first thing i did when i came to the senate, he asked me if i would help him work on a bill to protect people who were going to clinics. women's clinics that were being harassed at the clinic door. and you know what? i worked for him. i helped him on the floor. and i was so proud that we won that. and now there is a safety zone for women when they go to a clinic for their health care. their reproductive health care. that was ted kennedy. yes, ted kennedy, supported a conscience clause. we all do. and president obama has taken care of that. he has stated clearly in his compromise that if you are a religious institution, you don't have to offer birth control coverage. and if you are a religious affiliated institution, you don't have to cover it directly but

kennedy. it was fine as far as he was concerned. alexander haig calling up mr. nixon and then henry kissinger who at first was also not determined to pursue this were the ones who finally raised the issue to something of importance for mr. nixon. and then the question is so how did he respond? the first thing he did was to seek prior injunction against "the new york times" to suppress the public press from reporting the immediate story. not simply what american presidents typically do in a leak case which is order an investigation for the leaker, but to actually enjoin the american society from discussing the subject. it was the same kind of an approach to an issue that mr. nixon displayed when he ordered air attacks on north korea when a reconnaissance plane was shot down. now, since i thought about this point earlier, i ran and looked for this little piece of paper, which happens to be the record of the national security counsel meeting, the first and only national security council meeting that mr. nixon held in the context of the pentagon papers leak. it was

to wait for the secretary to make the justice kennedy: why why will the administrative remedies rule not be applicable - exhaustion rule not be applicable? mr. long: well, because if the anti-injunction act doesn't apply there is there is no prohibition on courts restraining the assessment or collection of this penalty, and you can simply - justice kennedy: well, but courts apply the exhaustion rule. i mean, i know you've studied this. i'm just not following it. why couldn't the court say well, you haven't exhausted your remedies, no injunction? mr. long: well, in you could do that, i think as a matter of of common law or judicially imposed doctrine, but in the code itself which is all i mean, the anti-injunction act is an absolutely central statute to litigation - justice kennedy: yes, yes. mr. long: about taxes. and the code says, first it says you must pay the tax first and then litigate. so that's the baseline. and then in addition it says you must i mean, it's not common law; it's in the code you must apply for a refund, you must wait at least 6 months. that's many of these provisions are extremely specific, with very specific time lim

mrs. boxer: what are these bills? these are bills that called for equity for women to get contraceptive coverage if they were given other coverage. they had the right to get contraceptive coverage. ted kennedyas a leader. he is a cosponsor on all of these bills. do you know for how many years, mr. president? 12 years. 12 years ted kennedy fought for women to get access to contraceptive coverage in their insurance. so i just say to my republican friends don't come to the floor and invoke the name of our dear colleague. i was so proud, the first thing i did when i came to the senate, he asked me if i would help him work on a bill to protect people who were going to clinics. women's clinics that were being harassed at the clinic door, and you know what? i worked it for him. i helped him on the floor. i was so proud we won that, and now there is a safety zone for women when they go to a clinic for health care, their reproductive health care. that was ted kennedy. yes, ted kennedy supported a conscience clause. we all do. and president obama has taken care of that. he has stated it clearly in his compromise that if you are a religious institution, you don't have to offer birth control coverage,

mr. roker, thank you very much. patrick kennedy'sation one mind for research is dedicated to finding cures for diseases and disorders of the brain. he's with us this morning along with the group's new ceo, peter carelli. good morning to you both. >> good morning. >> what was it about this area of scientific research, the medical disorders of the brain, mental and neurological disorders you decided needed your attention? >> well, there is everything from autism speaks to alzheimer's foundation from parkinson's and michael j. fox to addiction and depression. but we are all focused on the same organ of the body. we have more in common than divides us. the idea is why not work together to share each other's research along diseases because all the diseases affect the same organ. if we understand the organ together we'll all advance our collective and individual interests in the brain. >> i know you were a tireless advocate for service members with traumatic brain injuries, ptsd returning from war. do you think the military has done better

i was determined that kennedy adopt as many of my proposals and policies as possible. >> this week i had the opportunity to debate with mrxon. i feel that i should reveal that i had a great advantage in that debate, and i'm not referring to anyone's makeup man. the advantage that i had had was that mr. nixon had just debated with khrushchev and i had debated with hubert humphrey and that gave me an edge. >> how close did he come to beating jfk? >> well, the primary not -- i think he probably lost by 10% in the primary and the west virginia, wisconsin primaries, i think wisconsin might have been worse. but he didn't even really have a chance. but that's another whole story. kennedy's campaign was pretty well financed and humphrey didn't have a lot of money and he was really kind -- sort of bought out i would have to say. and there are stories of people being handed $5 and, you know, all kinds of things that went on during that campaign, that he didn't really have much of a chance. he was expected to win in that state, and that's why you'll hear michael beschloss say that he was expected to win. it wasn't so much that he w

i think for reasons that justice kennedy, i think, suggested in one of his questions to mr. long, all of the other doctrines that are an exhaustion of remedies and related doctrines would still be there. the united states would rely on them in those circumstances. and -- and so, i don't think the answer is that they can all go to court, no. >> well, why is it - >> two former -- two former commissioners of the irs have filed a brief saying that your interpretation is going to lead to a flood of litigation. are they wrong on that? >> yes. we don't -- you know -- we've -- we've taken this position, after very careful consideration, and we've assessed the institutional interests of the united states and we think we are in the right place. >> but tell me something, why isn't this case subject to the same bars that - that you list in your brief? the tax court, at least so far, considers constitutional challenges to statutes, so why aren't we -- why isn't this case subject to a dismissal for failure to exhaust? >> because we don't - because the exhaustion would go to the individual

mr. santorum responded to comments made by president john f. kennedy. >> i believe in america for the separation of church and state is absolute. where no catholic would tell the president gets out of whack and no protestant battalions parishioners for whom to vote. where no church or church school is granted any public funds or political preference. and where no man is denied public office merely because his religion differs from the president who might appoint him or the people who might elect him. >> watch more president kennedy's speech on their website on their video library. go to c-span.org and find that in our archives they are. >> today the senate blocked a move to involve employers to walk out of health coverage if they have moral objection. the blunt amendment was tabled in a 51 to for tivo. here comments for majority leader harry reid and minority leader mitch mcconnell. this is 15 minutes. ideolog >> today the senate will vote on an extreme ideological amendment for the bipartisan transportation bill. the senate takes aim at women'sw acces

kennedy, eisenhower, actually, who wasn't a republican, but mostly democrats, right? fdr and truman. there was no content in the pentagon papers that caused him to question mr. nixon or his kind of decisions,a you will right? he could have let this go by as an enormous leak and treated it in a standard perspective and he drew attention first to suppress the document which invoked first amendment disputes and freedom of the press issues that were guaranteed to be explosive in american society and moved the conversation up to the level of the united states supreme court where, in fact, it was found against him and second when he could not a sheef what he wanted on the surface. he resorted to suban techniques, most particularly starting a plumber's unit within the white house which was actually the first -- how should i say? the first active move in the colossus of sub trainian forces that acted throughout the watergate period and undermined his own leadership and presidency, ultimately force him to resign. so in a very real sense, you can trace the downfall of mr. nixon and in the context of the leak of the importance of the pentagon baerps, moved as an americ

mr. carvin to respond to those arguments. >> ifill: but the chief justice and justice kennedy and justice scalia and the silent justice thomas seemed to be... >> they were much more aggress with the government. but that's almost understandable because the government is appealing a lower court decision that struck down the mandate. the government has in a sense the tougher argument to make. this is an unusual exercise of congress's power and so the government has to lay out the reasons for that power. and also the court was very interested in if this is okay you should the commerce clause, what are the limits? what stops congress from ordering... commanding that consumers or citizens purchase or do other things? >> ifill: it's also an argument in the court today about whether this is the job of the federal government, that it should be the job of the states. is there any record to show that states have been willing to step in this void that the government says exists in the health care availability? >> yes, indeed. many states have implemented insurance market reforms and one state in particular, massachusetts, also put in pl
