iraq obama became america's 1st black president winning both the popular vote and the electoral college plus the democrats held on to the house and senate. is like looking at the footage from november 2008 and their early years in office and edwards bringing back sort of the hopelessness of the republican party at that time. the turnout in 2008 hit a record high and obama won the election with just under 53 percent of the popular vote. several states switched from republican shown here in red to democrat shown in blue. after the election the republicans launched a campaign to win back the states that they'd lost it was called red map. what republicans determined to do with red map was actually a really ingenious and savvy plan. they knew that state legislatures after the 2010 election would begin drawing the electoral maps that. the next decades politics in this country. would be fought on. a man who came up with the red map concept was the leading republican party strategist. christian kosky drafted a 2 step plan and convinced party leaders to approve it the focus of the project was st

recovery but analysts say that biden should in fact press ahead with his campaign a former aide to iraq obama ben labolt actually said that suspending his campaign would be a disservice to the country and there's no reason to do it so it does look like vice president as as of now will press ahead with the campaign and go through you know colbert 19 restrict ship and face mask larry as he's done you know in the past few months but as of now i think expect him to press ahead but also tell a very fine line in his messaging ok now when we've heard that the president has had the maximum dose of this experimental drug which doesn't sound like great news what is the procedure if he gets if he ends up being incapacitated what happens that well it's interesting because this white house has approached the coded 1000 pandemic with a very cavalier attitude so i am concerned over whether or not there really is a contingency in place we do know that you know the united states does have the 25th amendment which allows the president to pass along the duties of the office to the vice president in case they ar

plenty to say about him but if we focus on one thing back in 2011 while joe was leading the obama administration's iraq policy james was executive v.p. of a construction firm that landed a 1500000000 dollars contract to build houses in iraq the company denied that the vice president's position had anything to do with the deal but what do you make of this deja perot this is his name helps him get in the door but it doesn't help him get business people who have important names tend to get in the do easier but it doesn't mean success if he. the name the bomber he would get in the door easier to be fair those contracts did fall through but it's things like that that makes trump jr say things like this the biden family is the most corrupt political family in american history i'm pretty sure that video is what pops up when looking for the meaning of the phrase the pot calling the kettle black because the trump kids are 2 and just fine control of the trump organization was handed to don jr and his brother eric by their father when he took office due to conflict of interest issues but in 2017 promotional mater

has tried to impose simple american solutions and had broken those places whether it was iraq or afghanistan so obama offered. >> i think we may havelost david . >> can you hear me? >> we can. >> obama offered a reset because he was a global citizen, he was empathetic , he was going to consult. why is this election not going to be the same? the problem with this america, the donald trump america is not a strong company imposing solutions like democracy, the problem with the world under donald trump is that he seems to have revealed ways in which america itself domestically is a broken country. that's the lesson that people here in china pulled from america's performance with covid is that individualism is actually a selfishness to the point of refusing to wear face masks or believe science area it's a broken country and even if joe biden is elected president, i think for europeans , he spake here he's going to call their bluff and say you complain about the lack of multilateral allowances in china, well great, let's confront china. there will be a sense of accountability i think in europe that donald

who know both how to win and how to avoid the endless wars and echoed obama's 2008 election promises will begin to responsibly leave iraq to its people and forge a herder in peace in afghanistan. and also like obama trump has so far failed to deliver the difference here though is that the former president got a nobel peace prize in 2009 even though many of america's foreign entanglements worsened under his administration in 2016 trump even campaigned against the interventionist posturing of both. but we will no longer use american military might to construct democracies in faraway lands or try to rebuild other countries in our own image those days are now over there's also obama's bloated budget deficit which continues to grow under trub the current president made tax cuts for the rich sure but the economy more or less continued business as usual until the pandemic when the debates come around again though one has to wonder if biden will be as frank about these parallels as he's been in the past the truth of the matter is you wall you all know who you all know and you all got what has to be done we can disagree in the m

. >> but biden's utility went beyond domestic policy as obama tasked him to handle assignments in afghanistan and also iraq>> during the transition, president-elect obama said why don't you go to iraq and afghanistan in january to get the freshest possible information to inform our review? >> so that's what they did. biden returned from the trip believing afghanistan was a complete mess and told the president. >> there was not unity of mission, unity of purpose. he said, mr. president, the first thing we need to do is make sure we have a clear set of objectives and a clear strategy that everyone agrees on. >> one point of agreement was the first order of business was sending 25,000 additional troops to afghanistan. to ensure the country's upcoming elections would be fair. then came a request for even more troops. >> based on an assessment by the new commander in afghanistan, stan mcchrystal, he came back to washington and asked for an additional 40,000 u.s. troops. >> the military brass were on board but not biden, who never stopped raising questions and clearly got on their nerves. >> you had gates, mulle

simple american solutions on complex places and had broken those places, whether it was iraq or afghanistan, and so obama offered what-- >> i think we may have lost david. oh. >> can you hear me? >> we can. continue please. >> so, obama offered a reset because he was a global citizen, he was empathetic, he was going to consult. why is this election not going to be the same? because the problem with this america, the donald trump america, is not that it's a strong country imposing simple solutions like democracy and breaking places. the problem with the world with donald trump, he seems to have revealed way too much america, itself, domestically is a broken country. that's the lesson that people here in china draw from america's performance with covid. is that america is that individualism that they know about america, is actually a self selfishness that takes america to the point they refuse to wear face masks and even if joe biden is an elected prison for europeans, i think aaron is right, to call their bluff and you've complained about the lack of coalitions and multilateral and to confront china, well

she took a lot of the positions that ran counter to the obama administration approach for example especially with iraq and afghanistan with the premature withdrawal gave space to isis on the one hand and taliban on the other. sadly to replicate those decisions and if nominated and does become it with an idsurance policy. >> and with joe biden. >> - so i do think what i would like to see is a different approach to foreign policy. the success of the administration now to see the middle east as a mess to be avoided and take on the problems ourselves whatever we assume they will get worse but they actually do. and with the policy there toward iran nuclear deal was in retrospect because of failed to consider the ideology and to place that deal in context over the proxy war and the era of monarchies. so if there is a biden administration it takes an approach to foreign policy because there are many ways that are fundamentally different on china as well. you don't try to turn the clock back so no administration can do find their policy. take the good and take the bad and correct it. >> i will tell the audien

he's taken heart that finally an anti-war candidate was elected because president obama had spoken strongly against the iraq war. he had also been disappointed that senator obama and president obama has escalated american involvement in afghanistan, and he has criticized that and suggested that afghanistan could become another vietnam, which is, of course, was the centerpiece of his campaign. he's provided a good political base for president obama and offered him a hot of praise put also expressed concerns as well. >> duncan in ohio, go ahead. >> caller: yes, thank you for having me. i was just curious if you had ever heard of an organization called the building roads and whether or not george mcgovern had ever been to a conference before. thanks. >> scott farris? >> nope, i have not heard of that. >> okay. as we continue to talk about george mcgovern's legacy and his post-1972 career, i want to show you a little bit from former president bill clinton. dedication ceremony in 2006, he actually ran the mcgovern campaign in texas as many of you know. after that we'll come back and talk a little bit more about

the secretary of defense for policy that ran counter to the obama administration's approach to jihadist terrorism broadly, but especially in iraqafghanistan. where our premature withdrawal gave space to isis on one hand and the taliban on the other. i think president trump in many ways has obligated the efficiencies of those obama policies. so i am hoping that if michelle is nominated and does become secretary of defense, she becomes a strong voice for sustained engagement. what is something specific about joe biden that would make you feel safe and secure in this fight? mr. mcmaster: i think they both -- i think he brings a number of experiences. i don't know him well enough, but i do think -- what i would like to see if he comes in is a fundamentally different approach to foreign policy. i think that successive administrations now have seen the middle east mainly as a mess to be avoided, and not that we should have large numbers of troops there or take on the problems in the middle east ourselves, but whenever we assume that things couldn't get worse in the middle east that they actually do. and i think i would like to see a

iraq war was a crime. many people died and no one was held accountable. barack obamaaid we're not going to hold people to account for torture. we're fot going to hold people to account for iraq. i think those things led to the trump movement. when biden comes to office, i do want to see prosecutions, investigations of what went wrong. we can't always look forward and not prosecute and not hold to account crimes that have happened. it creates the ground for people who are probably worse than trump going forward. i do believe in accountability at all times. we can play our role in that at all times. >> i have loved this conversation. i know you are busy but please come see me again. >> definitely. >> they can watch streaming on peaco peacock's new exclusive news channel, the choice weeknights at 7:00 eastern. thank you so much. >> thank you so much. >>> it's a war of words on capitol hill. the senate gathers to debate amy coney bar receipt's faith. amy coney bar receipt's faith. of th? next time try bounce wrinkle guard dryer sheets. the world's first mega sheet with 3x

. >> the iraq regime continues to possess and conceal -- >> or barack obama, and you know, if you want care plan, you can keep your health care plan. >> they will see that if americans like their doctor, they will keep their doctor. >> what is unusual about president trump, it's a constant, constant series of misstatements. >> reporter: there's no better example than one of the president's free wheeling rallies. >> i was the man of the year in michigan. can you believe it? >> reporter: for the book, kesler studied his longest one to date. last december in battle creek, michigan. >> the rallies are where he goes in to over drive. >> i have the greatest economy in the history of this country. >> in two hours, kesler presented as one statement presented as fact per minute. and 60% labeled as false or misleading. he bake a full-time fact can checker ten years ago. five years later, he was profiled and the team at fact check.org in a 2016 campaign, and since then, new players have entered the field. >> i brought back 700,000 jobs they brought back nothing. >> daniel, how do you rate that cl

obama was elected. certainly even here in asia it represented a reset. under george w. bush, america used its strength without consulting and without listening for the simple american solution whether it was iraq or afghanistan. >> i think we may have lost david. >> can you hear me? >> we can. >> so obama was empathetic and was going to consult. why is this not going to be the same because the problem isn't that it's a strong country with simple solutions but the problems he's revealed ways that america itself domestically is a broken country. that is the lesson people here draw from the american performance is that america is that individualism that they know that is a selfishness. even if joe biden is elected president, for europeans, to call that bluff and say you complained about the lack of coalitions. let's do some stuff to confront china. there would be a sense of accountability if paying at least half the price for everything else europeans paid so much. but stephen is absolutely right. the rest of the world can't help but think that maybe in four years time that 40% of americans would have lost faith with donald trump with a kind of disbelief with much of the rest of the world but the

stride during the bill clinton administration had to abide the iraq fiasco and everything else for 8 years then had a hey day under president obama and like everything else the pattern changed when president trump got to the white house michel which will be more opportune in the next 4 years for political talk radio 4 more years or president joe biden and vice president come along harris. i don't know if the defense vs off fence argument applies anymore because everybody seems to be on often it's so whether your party is in power or your party is not in power you just simply act as though you're not in power an effort trumps an entire defense has been the major part of how people present him you don't hear people talking about how wonderful his programs are his policies you can you hear constant defense of the president by the conservatives as if he were under assault by an evil world and deep state the media everybody's against him so i don't know whether the op anstey fence thing works anymore everybody is just blasting everybody else it seems that everybody is in pursuit of victory as opposed to truth as a matter of fact i thi

iraq. after years of the defense sequestration decimating the forces and the obama biden administration we've gotten to the point we have the smallest army military since 1940 and the shortages and readiness ratings and urgent need to rebuild the deterrent. all of that is being addressed and the progress is impressive. the young men and women who serve and line up in droves to join the space force. we've accelerated the missile-defense review and the insurance will protect the homeland against the actors and adversary states in 2018, we converted and deployed the summary launch conducting the life extension programs on the existing nuclear stockpile. we are funding appropriately to meet the necessary upgrades has billions of dollars and additional funding has gone to the department of energy to make sure we have a safe, secure and ultimately deadly nuclear weapons and that ensures the fact we will never have to use them. we also funded long-range standoff missiles, the b21 that is being built in florida and other places into the ground-based strategic insurance and to maintain a credible dete
