know is lyndon johnson turns to bill miers after he signs the civil rights act in '64 which barry goldwater voted against, a big moment in the development of the modern right and said i handed the south to the republican party for a generation. lbj was wrong, it was for two generations. it's a more complicated political universe right now and i don't think much of the commentary has reflected that. the nature of this commentary, president obama carried virginia twice. he carried florida. >> carried florida twice. >> we have an african-american president. >> north carolina. >> it's just -- it's all more complicated than a lot of the chatter reflects. and that's the world we live in. >> it's a lot more complicated and even talking about lbj, i have to say, there was a time, and this is all about expanding the republican party. i know there are a lot of freaks out there already blogging and getting crazy, scarborough is not -- i want to expand the party base. i want everybody to vote republicans every four years. i want the party to have all the money, win every single election, nominate every

boy.a very goldwater god bless you could stop playing games. the american people have to start learning how to vote. they are so stupid, they have no idea. guest: thanks, bill. this is the greatest country in the history of the world. if you step back from all of the political battles, and they drive people crazy, and they drive most of us in this town crazy, if you step back, you appreciate that america has provided more opportunity and more success and freedom and dreams realized for more individuals than any country ever. it is a very special place. are here of us who trying to preserve that and make certain that that is except rented and that the policies we put in place continue to allow that to occur, then that is where the battle lines ought to be drawn. new orleans, louisiana, patrick, an independent. caller: thank you for taking my call. this is my first opportunity to ask a question. i appreciate it. my question is off-topic. as a member of the budget committee and as a republican congressman, i would like to ask you what you are doin

and we should have another goldwater year. >> that would be so awesome. >> stephanie: ted cruz much betterannouncer: it's the "stephanie miller show." ♪ of the day. i do a lot of looking at those people as well. not only does senator rubio just care about rich people, but somehow he thinks raising the minimum wage is a bad idea for the middle class. but we do care about them right? current tv is the place for true stories. with award winning documentaries that take you inside the headlines. real, gripping, current. documentaries... on current tv. ♪ ♪ we got the beat we got the beat ♪ ♪ yeah we got -- >> announcer: stephanie miller. >> stephanie: uh-huh. it is the "stephanie miller show." welcome to it. twenty-two minutes after the hour 1-800-steph-1-2 the phone number toll free from anywhere. sexy liberal john fugelsang in the new york bureau, fridays with fugelsang. excuse me. hello john fugelsang -- >> good morning. >> stephanie: i was reading more of the michael tomasky piece you were talking about it really is so titillating that they might choose someone like ted cruz. >> that would b

in that same year, in 1964, the republicans chose as their nominee barry goldwater.had joined the southern democratic filibuster of civil rights. when it came to race, the two parties basically switched sides. embracing civil rights, democrats opened their door to black voters and gave the boot to segregationists. the gop welcome the resulting backlash among southern whites. this is why the republican party is to this day periodically haunted by uncomfortable reminders of its modern roots in the south. in that sense, this week's story a about jack hunter is very much of a piece with, say, ronald reagan's infamous decision to launch his 1980 general election campaign in philadelphia, mississippi, as the seat in the county where during the freedom summer of 1964, three northern civil rights workers were abducted in murder. while the state segregationist leaders all played dumb. reagan's visit 16 years later was testament to how radically the civil rights backlash had reshaped partisan politics in the south. whether it was trent lott's to strom thurmond back in 2002. >>

the main conservative figure before that had been barry goldwater who lost in 1964 and reagan was theface of different american conservative. when arnold schwarzenegger was governor, it was a sign of the devolution of the california republican party and also sort of institution of governor where really the only state level republicans running california now are essentially self-financed millionaires like carly or arnold schwarzenegger who is independently famous. similarity of jerry brown following two former republicans, and republican former actors. host: when it comes to the state, you write this, as problems for brown, they are america's problems at worse. guest: , yes, here's my point. as i've had the opportunity to discuss c-span a number of times, i spent a lot of my recent life living china. when i come back to the u.s. after these times in china what's so striking is what's strong about the u.s. and the only thing that's weak about the u.s. what's strong about the u.s. is our universities and our culture and our companies our brands and our pop culture that reaches around the

order this for relief to have been is how they try to get the services to work better just like goldwater nicole's coming to much division becomes that of foreign desert from one disaster the still have their force and army compared to what was it is part of the promotion of your in the are you have to spend one year at the air force base sur you build up your understanding of the of there culture and built relationships so for this to work you have to spend what you're at the state department and they spend one year at the u.s. military and, we have seen some of that with the intelligence community you have the fbi and cia all working side-by-side and they build relationships a and work better together. but what the state department will tell you is we can't take one of our people to send her to the pentagon so that is the inhibitor to that if we get that interagency that is why you have to do with that of prince mcdevitt change but the gentleman chris to the guy a few pull together the counterterrorism unit he set a taste of that work to build the network he pulled together all the elem

everybody said that barry goldwater and the conservative movement.ive movement. you look at what was written after the '64 demolition. . you look at what happened after republicans lost in 1976. there was all of this advice that at the end ended up being completely wrong. republicans rebounded in 1966. reagan won and they were off to races. it happened naturally. it didn't happen with them call claiting going we lost in '64 so e we need to be more moderate in '66. i'm not saying that republicans need to bolt for the right. all i'm saying is it it doesn't need to be calculated. we lost the hispanic vote by x amount, so we're going to have to create new legislation that completely changes our position on that issue. that doesn't work either. >> so guys, i want an update from spain. we're talking about one of europe's deadliest train crashes in decades. apparently the problem, as we reported earlier, had everything to do with speed. we have nbc's kier simmons live in spain. >> reporter: hi, mika. this is one of a number of hospitals where the people are

this was goal of goldwater nichols. too much division, the part came out of the desert one disaster and a bunch of other things, and it has been, believe, successful. now, you will still have air force and army and -- but compared to where it was, jim, when you were in the military, they work much, much better together, and have the way they did it, they mandated as part of your promotion that you have to spend a year at an air force base if you're in the army, and you built an understanding of the other culture and you built relationships. so in order for what we're talking about their work, you would need military guys to spained year at the state department. state department folks spend a year in the military, and we have seen some of that within the intelligence community. the national counterterrorism center is -- certainly they have their critics, but you two in there and you've got fbi and nsa and cia guys working side-by-side, and they build relationships and work better together and we miss less because of it.

there is no reason to make public broadcasting, which barry goldwater helped launch, into a partisan issue. public broadcasting has broad support from republicans, independents, and democrats alike. that's why pbs and its member stations were named number one in public trust and an excellent use of tax dollars for 10 years in a row. it's time for the people who believe in public broadcasting to stand up to this extremism and settle the question once and for all about the future of public broadcasting. unless we fight now, there may be nothing to defend. the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentleman from arizona, mr. gosar, for five minutes. mr. gosar: thank you, mr. speaker. i'll keep it brief. mr. speaker, i rise today to shed light on attorney general eric holder's blatant disregard for the rule of law. mr. holder's violation of the law are egregious and he should not be immuned from the prosecution or given license to act without restraint. an ordinary citizen would go to jail for selling guns to mexican drug cartels. an ordinary citizen would go to jail for secretly
