america. the truth is, barack obama and hillary clinton do not want to fix what is going wrong in america. they want to change america. they want to change america. what you're left with is, instead of a president who has undertaken the systematic effort to redefine our country in every aspect of it. what you have now is a society where people hold views that they support traditional marriage, they call you a bigot and a hater. if you are pro-life, they say you are waging a war on women. instead of focusing on the people that are struggling and working harder than they have ever worked and making less, we have a president that is accessed with creating more government programs, oftentimes that benefit people at refused to work. we know that isis is actively recruiting people to infiltrate into our country using the syrian refugee crisis as a cover. you say you want to restrict the refugees, they say that is hateful. we have terrorists beheading people all over the world. isis is crucifying people, carrying out attacks in paris and then bernadino. we have the runway risk of radical jihadist

a president was elected who wanted to change america. in essence, barack obama promised hope and change, but the change he was promises was to change the country, to make us more like the rest of the world. he views the constitution differently than you do and i do. he view it as an impediment, that's why he violates it lawlessly, ignoring it with executive orders, undermining the second amendment. he views free enterprise as a greedy economic system, have you watched some of the bernie sanders commercials? this is thousand he view free enter price, a greedy system, they don't believe that hard work is the way you've achieved the things you've achieved in your life. barack obama views america as an american global power, that our fault these countries don't like, it's our fault that jihadists are doing some of the things against us. so he wants to cut america down to size. that's why he gets -- that's why he apologizes for america. that's how you winter a noebel peace prize three month into office without doing a thing, you try to cut america down to size. the r

wants to barack obama is starting a big push today... to tackle gun violence. kim hutcherson has more. deadly mass shootings seem to be a regular occurrence in america. and president obama has regularly called for tougher restrictions on guns. (pres. barack obama - no font necessary) "once again, innocent people were killed because someone who wanted to inflict harm had no trouble getting their hands on a gun." now, the president says he isn't waiting any longer. (pres. barack obama - no font necessary) "my new year's resolution is to move forward on our unfinished business as much as i can.//butted to.//that's especially true for one piece of unfinished business, that's our epidemic of gun violence." he'll be meeting with attorney general loretta lynch monday to discuss options for tightening gun laws. sources say the president is expected to take executive action..without congressional approval.....expa nding background checks - a move which has widespread public support. but some republican presidential candidates are already promising to reverse any action obama takes - if they win the presidency. (donald trump/republica n presidential candidate)

your guy, barack obama, brought all the policy and nuance america could ever want. what do we have? we have the middle east exploding, double digit real unemployment when you look at the numbers. policy and nuance does not win the way. >> jobs have been created, wall street is up, the stock market is up, middle class finally has an inching up in median income. the middle east, donald trump is not going to resolve the middle east. donald trump doesn't even know what the u.s. nuclear military triad is. this is reality. he is going to be president potentially if he wins these primaries and the man is not qualified. and i'm not being -- he's just not qualified. >> executive resolve is what we need. >> amanda, meet me over here on camera one because we'll let them talk. ted cruz out with a new ad attacking marco rubio. here it is. ♪ >> i know i have a debate, but i've got to get this fantasy football thing right. okay? >> talk about burn. i mean, amanda, why focus on marco rubio? >> listen, the campaign, you know, they speak for themselves. i think this is kind of a funny ad and it's not

this country wants someone that will help undo the damage barack obama has done to america.that's what i focus on. and that's what my campaign is about. so i can talk to you about the things i say or don't say. what somebody else says, you'll have to ask them. >> you were talking about how voters seem to really like authenticity and genuineness. and when i talk to voters in iowa, one of the things they say, the trump supporters, is they don't bring up his policies, even. they just like that he says what he thinks and he doesn't care about political correctness. he doesn't care about ruffling feathers. he's just honest. you are a very disciplined politician. i'm not calling you ungenuine, but you're a very disciplined politician. do you think that that might work against you in a cycle like this? >> no. look, people can call it disciplined. i'm running on a very specific agenda. i mean, i'm running for president of the united states. i'm not doing it for entertainment. i'm doing it because this country is headed in the wrong direction. seven years of barack obama has done tre

america wants a fighter that shows up. jeb bush says you know who else barack obama. enough whining. then this from ted cruz, i challenged donald trump to a one on one debate. tell him to accept. for his part, donald trump did respond to this. pathetic attempt by fox news to try to build up ratings for the gop debate. without me, this he would have no ratings. i want to talk to our political analyst, frank torres about this. frank, the final comment is the biggest criticism at all. it's like who cares about the ratings. the thing that is the most important is i have going the people of iowa a chance to make an informed decision on the most important job we have in america, the president. >> absolutely. trump thinking very highly of himself and he believes he's made an impact over previous debates to have an impact or an outcome on the ratings and there will be casual viewers who will miss his antics on stage, but he's giving his voters a clear >> he's probably right, the relativings will probably be lower and not as entertaining, about you to your point, it gives the other candidates

barack obama struck an optimistic tone for the future of america. he called on lawmakers to start working together to improve the country. >> the future we want, all of us want, opportunity and security for our families, a rising standard of living, a sustainable, peaceful planet for our kids, all that is within our reach. >> obama touched on other issues ranging from affordable education to climate change and the economy. obama repeatedly brought up his administration's accomplishments and the need to build on them. when speaking on the threat of terrorism, he reminded people that osama bin laden was killed during his presidency. >> our foreign policy has to be focused on the threat from isil and al qaeda but it can't stop there. for even without isil, even without al qaeda, instability will continue for decades in many parts of the world. >> obama ended his speech with the same message he had when he became president seven years ago, a message of hope for the future of america. >>> a poll shows harrisbu s hiln is likely to face tough competition. the results of the latest poll jointsly conducted by "the new york times" and cbs news were released on

[applause] president barack obama: we've got to make it easier to vote, not harder. we need to modernize it. [applause] this is america. we want to make it easier for people to participate. and over the course of this year, i intend to travel the country to push for reforms that do just that. but i can't do these things on my own. changes in our political process, in not just who gets elected but how they get elected, that will only happen when the american people demand it. it depends on you. that's what's meant by a government of, by, and for the people. what i'm suggesting is hard. it's a lot easier to be cynical. to accept that change is not possible. and politics is hopeless. and the problem is, all of the folks who are elected don't care. and to believe that our voices and our actions don't matter. but if we give up now, then we forsake a better future. those with money and power will gain greater control over the decisions that could send a young soldier to war or allow another economic disaster or roll back the equal rights and voting rights that generations of americans have fought, even died to secure. and then, as f

now we have this amazing contrast where you end up having donald trump says, i want to make america great again, barack obama ted cruz saying there would be no deals in a ted cruz administration. so, amazing. i do think that ted cruz really wants to pin the establishment on to donald trump. the question is, after a day or two of sarah palin standing next to donald trump, it really is hard to say he's 100% creature of this establishment. >> let talk about this, this idea that donald trump is now trying to push, this idea that he is a uniter, because among other things it flies in the face of recent polling. new nbc news/"wall street journal" poll, the most recent poll, and we looked at positives and negatives. and i -- there they are right there. 58% of those polled had a negative view of donald trump. his negatives among black voters, even for a republican, are really high. that's 81%. how does he square that with i numbers. how can he say he's a divide somewhere uniter when so many groups, women, latinos, independents, just about every group saying, no, not so much. >> craig, i would equate this writer to t

president, barack obama, is set to issue an executive order aimed at making it harder to buy a gun in america. he wantsbackground checks to try to reduce the number of shootings. they will be required to do more research on smart gun technology. and request more funding for 200 federal agents. tom akerman now reports. >> reporter: dozens of american deaths each day from gunshots. now the president has his attorney general readying its options for narrowing access to firearms. >> this is not going to solve every violent crime in this country. it's not going to keep every gun out of the hands of a criminal. it will potentially save lives in this country. >> reporter: congress has refused to close loopholes in the law which allow unlicensed weapons dealers to sell weapons without background checks. so president obama says he will invoke his executive authority. >> a lot of the work that has gone on has been to ensure that we would have confidence in the legal basis of these actions. >> reporter: the top republican in congress, paul ryan, says obama's plans reach a dangerous level of executive overreach. >

barack obama in particular to do that. but i do believe that early on he wanted to do the renewable energy grid for america that never happene in america, and he wanted everything to be a civil town hall forum like cnn ran on the gun violence in fairfax, and of course, we have not reached that. the country is at each other's throats, and the partisans are more than ever, and he is taking partial responsibility for that, but behind closed doors he is blaming congress who has a much lower approval rating than the president. >> but he was blunt, i must say, and you will agree as well. >> he was. >> and the speech is highlighting what he hope s s i the legacy and setting the stage he hopes for a democratic president to follow him. how did he do? >> i think that the speech was perfect for what he needed to do, and it was well written and he delivered it with vim and vigor and getting the high marks from americans who watched it and listened to it or watched it online or whatever, and so it is a success for him. and now, how long he gets a little bounce out of this is yet to be seen. it is a crowded calendar in politic, and most

america and say hand over your guns, i want all your guns i would do it. i believe her and barack obama is in exactly the same boat. >> maggie, it's interesting. we've seen a lot of republican candidates go after president obama for the executive action on firearms. as i mentioned the president is going to have his town hall tomorrow night at 8:00 where we're going to be asking him questions and audience members are going to be asking questions on all sides of the issue. how do republican candidates stand apart from each other because they sound very similar. >> they do sound very similar. you're hearing similar rhetoric and saw the white house, it was interesting. chris christie is the one person you've seen democrats try to single out as being different on guns. you saw josh earnest, the white house press secretary making the point christie has a record at odds with what he's saying now. i with -- was with chris christie the other day in new hampshire. he repeatedly declined to answer questions. for the rest, it is basically sound as conservative as you can and as strong as you can on
