president officially recognized leif ericson as the discoverer of ericson as the disco[ male announcer ] this is jim, a man who doesn't stand still. but jim has afib, atrial fibrillation -- an irregular heartbeat, not caused by a heart valve problem. that puts jim at a greater risk of stroke. for years, jim's medicine tied him to a monthly trip to the clinic to get his blood tested. but now, with once-a-day xarelto®, jim's on the move. jim's doctor recommended xarelto®. like warfarin, xarelto® is proven effective to reduce afib-related stroke risk. but xarelto® is the first and only once-a-day prescription blood thinner for patients with afib not caused by a heart valve problem. that doesn't require routine blood monitoring. so jim's not tied to that monitoring routine. [ gps ] proceed to the designated route. not today. [ male announcer ] for patients currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. xarelto® is just one pill a day taken with the evening meal. plus, with no known dietary restrictions,

from ericson. it's unfortunate to have to disinvite him but i don't want someone on stage who gets a hostile question from a lady and his first inclination is imply it was hormonal. it just was wrong. ericson also took to twitter, called the quote a bridge too far, and explained why he had disinvited donald trump there. there was a lot of excitement for trump. he has a lot of fans so interesting to see what red state conventiongoer think about this tomorrow when ericson has promised, first thing in the morning and explains his decision. >> all right. so, trump campaign response to this has been what, and do we know for certain mr. trump is not coming? >> i mean who can say with donald trump. he kind of improvises. what we have heard from the campaign through a statement, not from trump himself they put out a statement calling ericson a weak and pathetic leader saying they plan to hold an event somewhere else and basically saying too bad red state you don't get donald trump today. now once again i'l

eric ericson, you are in touch with the conservative community.he ground swell for the trump candidacy? >> now that he its talking foreign policy, it might grow. i'm impressed. the conservatives are real befuddled. there are a lot that want to woo some into the race. you are going to see a lot of people line up behind him. sarah palin and mitt romney have it easy. they can raise money with the snap of a finger. they can sit it out. donald trump, we can put him in that policy too. >> the only foreign policy he knows is the miss universe pageant. thank god i wore my cowboy boots today. forget the idea of donald trump run running. he is not. the idea of him being in the white house, if you thought bill clinton had a good time, let donald trump going to the white house. >> eric, i want to get to the mike pence conversation in a minute. this is a very, very serious conversation. >> roland just mentioned michele bachmann. she is making some trips to the situation. she hasn't ruled it in or ruled it out. part is to get media attention. eric ericson, real

ericson: he said it second. sanders: and with the transportation bill we will have $400 million to build roads and bridges and create jobs. we have greatly expanded community health centers now accessing the primary health care through the center's. we have expanded veterans' programs with primary health care all over the state. >>moderator: let's talk about gridlock we will start with you. what will you do to try to break the gridlock? laframboise: the biggest problem is 2.fingers at. of that is what i recognized immediately to think of the solution to the problem. by simply changing the way we go to to write the bill first to turning our representatives in two representatives instead of legislators then bypass the gridlock to go to almost directly the three bills that i have researched the most people agree with the areas that i wrote the bill. mcgovern: the question and? am i and favor of gridlock? >>moderator: what will you do to end gridlock? mcgovern: first come of focus on issues that unite us and not div

what the president tonight was really trying to appeal -- not to eric ericson, you know. he's trie aetrying to appeal to independent voters and trying to come across as the reasonable leader. and don't forget, his leadership numbers have suffered lately, particularly after the debt ceiling. and one way he can do that is to challenge republicans, lay down a very clear plan and say, you should pass it, you should pass it, this makes a lot of sense to me. and hope that it makes a lot of sense to the independent voters out there who will then put pressure aon republicans in congress. the missing part here, which i want to see, is when the president is going to talk on september 19 about how he intends to pay for it and what he's going to say to that joint committee and how he's going to pay for this $450 billion or whatever it turns out to be. that's something the american people need to hear also. but for tonight he was very concise, very clear, told them he's going to send up legislation, which is something we also haven't seen from this president, and say, here's what i wa

with ericson. he'll fake the hand off and instead run this one for himself, 6 points on the board. mount vista beats arapaho, 41- 24. >> ponderosa traveling south to they're doing their best to hang. this puts the rams in the red zone. they would score shortly after to tie things up. they would pull away after that. finding the end zone. ponderosa would top rampart, 37- 6. >> it's a one-point game with only two seconds left in the first half when there's a hail mary up into the end zone, the ball gets tipped and the hands of ty webber as time expires. they looked up again in the second half to make it 20-6. green mountain kept hanging around though. there's this one-handed catch that nearly got the rams back in the game but they still fall short 20-12, thanks in large part to that hail mary. >> in my head i was like don't drop the ball, can you do this. last game, so i want to make sure i give my all this game, and he gave it my all and came down with the ball. my heart literally just stopped and i

ericson retirement communities filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy. based in catonsville, they run more than a dozen community including two in our area. the company also agreed to be purchased but officials say ericson's debt has to be restructured to finish that deal. >>> 5:02. the latest on the johns hopkins university student killed in a deadly hit-and-run near campus. baltimore police say the man accused of kitting and killing 20-year-old miriam frankl has not turned himself in to police. earlier the man told his family he would go to the police. police found his pickup but haven't been able to locate him. a memorial service has been set up for miriam frankl, who is from chicago. it's expected to be held on campus but right now arrangements have not been finalized. >>> the latest on the war in afghanistan. today u.s. officials say they expect afghan president hamid karzai to concede he fell short of the august election and that announcement is critical because it could determine if president obama will send more troops to the war-torn region. viv

the euro 2020 match between denmark and finland is halted after a player christian ericson collapsedsuscitated. the terrifying moment was captured on the field. what do we need to know, don riddell? >> well, the news has been more positive in the last hour and a quarter and anyone who was following this sports occasion. i think that people were fearing the worst, because it did not look good, but the news we are hearing from both uefa and that is the football governing body and the organizers of the event, and the football federation suggests that ericson's condition is a little bit more positive than we had feared. the danish federation said that he is a awake and looking for further examination and he is at the hospital, and the news from uefa saying that the player has been transferred to the hospital and has been stabilize. a crisis meeting has been called between both teams and match officials. and fred, look at the reaction of everybody here in the stadium. because, they really did fear the worst. he collapsed under no challenge from any other player. he was prone in the corner

what stood out with eric ericson was that it was an affirmative action move. i'm asking you, do you see it that way or do you agree or help us understand that thinking? >> i wouldn't say it is race but i couldn't really tell you what it was about. the award was given for -- it was preemptively given. they are encouraging him. i don't think anyone really knows what they awarded this for, including the nobel committee. >> jason, you got people on both sides of this conversation. you heard the man on the street kind of interview. what's your take on this? does the president deserve it so early? well, on one hand, my heart bursts with pride that an american was honored with this award. we are a great and generous nation. we vest our power in our leaders to execute that vision. i think this reflects well on the entire nation. na said, as a practical matter, it is obviously a premature offering. i think the bess wait t way to h this if i were the president, think of it as that letter you receive when you get into college or you win a part through an audition. a cert

trades at 13 times earnings estimates versus 18 for ericson. nokia is paying to wait. 4.2% dividend. i like it. but if you want best in breed, ericsson is the way. if you want value stock that's got a nice dividend. nokia is the way to go i expect 5g. next up, there are the fi5g semiconductor companies. sky works, qualcomm and xilinx qual qualcomm is up 7% intel is up 2.4% there have been some major changes here originally like them all i told you skyworks is my favorite it is cheap and has a tremendous amount of 5g exposure. some are right for reassessment. qualcomm had the most seismic shift. communications chipmaker has the best 5g offering and virtually in every 5g phone. but they had a bitter lawsuit with apple which was going after them for monopoly pricing. when they reached a settlement two weeks ago with the deal and six years, the stock soared. not only did this remove a major overhang, it gave us visibility for qualcomm sales for years to come the stock has rub from 58 to $86, it is less expensive. i think it is a hold up. we have to

ericson: i represent the united states marijuana party.states of america is we're suffering from a lack of democracy and the system is american and just to give you an example because i did go to school that our lavender eighth graders to watch this program they are concerned about bullying. but senator leahy has been a bully and he has then a police in the political playground the way children are believed in the schoolyard. and i mean i ran is a democratic candidate this past summer and the senator refused to have even one debate or one for of with be. he is a political playground bully and ps sexist and a totalitarian that is undemocratic and un-american and he should be ashamed of himself. >> if you can have an opportunity to respond. >>. leahy: as a person who wrote the violence against women act i don't see there is any group of women in this country that calls me sexist . and referring to senator sanders i admired him. he and his wife are close friends. i am pleased that he is holding a rally this week to endorse me and the rest of

so companies like nokia, ericson, samsung, play in the micro space and we play in the core net working wires that go to the cell towers. then the signal from the cell tower, maybe ericson or nokia has patents around. >> that's right. >> what does huawei do? >> they do the radio networks and core net working, as well. they do hand sets ask they're in a lot of businesses we're not in. >> and the question everybody wants to understand, if huawei is one of the dominant players in the space, i think almost everyone agrees, if the chinese government said to huawei, give us the data, they would have no option to do it. but is that meaningful? would huawei be sort of so dominant that it can suck away all this data from every -- you know, everybody in the world and give it to the chinese government? >> so i have no visibility to >> but they're two different questions. if the chinese asked huawei if they would do it, and i'm saying you don't have to answer that. most people would think the answer would be yes. the second question is does huawei technologically have the ability to be that dominan

and -- >> well ericson is okay.ith ericson and nokia are these are companies swamped by -- crushed frankly by huawei and the western nations in europe don't seem to be interested in helping their own which is wrong susan in california. susan? >> caller: jimmy choo, thank you for searching for great advice. >> chill man is in the house what is up >> caller: i've been watching a fortune 500 science and technology lead got a contract with cdc and goes head and head with northrup and lockheed and just rose $11 today in the middle of a down -- it is named ldox. >> such a winner we have liked this company ever since the spinoff continued to like it it is not done going higher even though it had a big move to jerry in texas, jerry. >> caller: jimmy chill. >> yeah. >> caller: a big booyah to you from el paso, texas. >> nice, i love el paso. one of the most fun towns. let's go to work together. >> caller: all right so i'm looking at this company down about 10% from the 52-week high as of of now. they have a good business and

she says she used ericson for his political connections. her disdain for having to live with him. at up with time she offered sex to a man at a special organization. they say she is not a shy, just a american university opportunity in a relationship with an american oprahtiveperti >> why would the president consider not defending a in a toe -- nato ally? wesley clark has some thoughts on that as well. >>> can nato nations depend on the united states. will they sdand by allies if they're attacked. this is the key part, maybe the key part of the north trant treaty, but the president seemed to question it all this why. >> why should my son go to montenegro. >> yeah, they are very small, and they have very strong people. they have very strong people. very aggressive. they may get aggressive and congratulations you're in world war 3. >> joining me now is former in a toe supreme leader, you spent so much of your career in nato. when you heard the president say that, what was your reaction? >> it was like an invitation for them to come meddle. the

i would look at john ericson's work and anything by david glants. i highly recommend. because you will get a good look at the eastern front. >> next up is around from caller: i was calling to in defense of the russia. they certainly -- we wouldn't have been able to invade normandy, and we would have done it at a much higher cost if they hasn't taken so many troops away from the east. that's basically all i had to say. thanks. host: thank you. john, go ahead. guest: that's an excellent point. the cost of invading normandyy would have been much higher if the sofeyts hasn't done what they had done over the last two to three years. that was the point stalin was making was, hey, you've got to help me out here. you've got to have a major effort to sifen off part of the german army because i'm dealing with most of it here. that's why stalin didn't feel like the campaign in north africa or italy were really valid second fronts. and that's why he wanted a bone fide invasion of france from the beginning of the big three at the end of 1941 when the u.s. was in the war all the way

eric ericson is not going to accept a compromise. i don't think special interest groups, heritage action for growth, are going to accept any sort of compromise that comes out of this, anything that isn't total surrender by the president on health care or total surrender by the president on other issues. we know where the president is on this and we know where harry reid is on this. i agree with you, david, i think the only way out for boehner is it's not going to happen, we've got to keep the government going. that's why i assumed this idea of temporary short-term basically putting off, kicking the can down the road two months which the white house is screaming at the top of our lungs to john boehner, do it. we'll lock ourselves in a room. >> margaret, we often wonder about boehner psychology, i'll play armchair psychology, the only thing that makes sense in his behavior is what chuck alluded to earlier, this is a historic moment in the republican party and he's the only thing sewing together these disparate halves. >> he's super glu

ericson? ericson: my grandfather was born in the him perform and it used to be legal and if we legalize it again we could pay for liheap. legalizing and taxing marijuana and hemp won't pay for everything but if it comes between vermont freezing to death in their home and legalizing tax marijuana and pay for the fuel assistance with that. >> moderator: you are watching a live debate at the studio of the vermont public television. the candidates of the united states senate. why don't we move next to health care. we will start with you -- [inaudible] >> moderator: we are going to move to the next topic here. i want to discuss health care and whether or not you support the affordable care act otherwise known as obamacare and we start with you. i support socialize medicine and one of the problems we can't get it because we are tied up in the single-payer issue which is administered in fact and sure we should have it and would take 20 some odd percent of the bill but we will still end up with a rott

former congressman tom davis, former secretary of sta state, stan blackwell and austin, texas, eric ericson. i want to start with this right off the bat. we may drop in if we get a shot of christine o'donnell and get a listen to her. look at this right here, this is the cover of "time" magazine which i think covers pretty good the tensions going on. tea party time, how conservative rebels are rattling the republican establishment. tom davis what is there to be worried about? >> plenty. you have a political establishment in this country in both parties that hasn't delivered any good news to americans in ten years. they elected obama, firing them and turning on anybody who has been in authority and gummed up the works. >> she has come on the national scene from nowhere in part by copying a tea party message, having a tea party message on the one hand gets people excited, let's listen to her campaigning, talking about all the things wrong with washington. >> i'm optimistic that we can begin the effort to turn the tide in our country, and get our country back on track, but we can't do it by spe

eric ericson, what are your headlines going to be on red state.com? >> well, i think this may be the first debate where romney didn't come out the clear winner. rick perry came out strong. everyone held themselves to the end and perry needed to do well. i think he did well. i don't think the social security exchange helps romney at all. i think he's foolish to continue it. he may want to go after perry on hpv or i am dprags. i think the majority believe with perry. for the life of me, i can't understand why he would go with this. >>> governor roland, your take. >> if you're ayala continue owe voter, the last thing you want to hear is some of the things you heard. colorado, new mexico, arizona will be -- the gop did themselves no favor in trying to curry with latino. so much emphasis, talking about social security, talking about a balanced budget, most of the -- >> it came up in abolished in the department of education. >> right. that's the only moment it came up. frankly, if you're a parent trying to get your kid educated. they didn't speak to the cri

eric ericson, the editor and chief of a conservative blog is joining us to talk about this. here in washington, roland martin. the language of this one is hard. it is something james did say. it is a comparison he made during the campaign when both hillary clinton and barack obama, then senator clinton and senator obama were candidates of president. does it make a difference, john -- roland, you go first. you are right here with me. does it make a difference. he is the president of the united states and she is the secretary of state. to say if hillary clinton gave up one of her and gave it to obama, he would have two. >> there is a difference. i believe you have to have respect for the office of president. i understand what james said. he explained us the context. so what he did was, he mixed a present-day discussion as relates to what the president should do with a joke that he told during the campaign. so, frankly, it is not like he was repeating -- it is not like he was telling a story from 2008 and linking the two. it is disrespectful to the president of the united state

eric ericson and susan and john. congresswoman, to you first, is she running or is she just trying to help her image? >> well, who really knows what goes on in the mind of governor palin? if she did s not running, she's really putting together a brilliant strategy for reminding everyone of a very critical time that she is extremely relevant. you showed pictures of people standing out in the heat and that she's the one person that connects. i would say i don't think she's running but tomorrow she may prove me wrong. what she is doing is running to be one of the most influential republicans in these united states and what that means is whoever is the republican nominee or all of those people running for the nomination will be wanting her attention and her endorsement. >> so john, i'm surrounded by families here. some of them have been here for eight or nine hours. you know this state well. you advised rick santorum who is exploring a republican presidential candidacy and is most likely to run. what is the palin factor?

and what -- the president tonight was really trying to appeal not to erik menend menendez -- eric ericsonhe's trying to come across as reasonable leader. his numbers have suffered particularly after the debt ceiling and the one way to do that is challenge republicans, lay down a very clear plan and say you should pass it, you should pass it. this makes a lot of sense to me and hope that it makes a lot of sense to the independent voters out there who will then put pressure on republicans in congress. the missing part here, which i want to see, is when the president is going to talk on september 19 about how he intends to pay for it, and what he's going to say to that joint committee and how he's going to pay for this $450 billion or whatever -- whatever it turns out to be. that's something the american people need to hear also, but for tonight, he was very concise, very clear. told them he's going to send up legislation, which is something we also haven't seen from this president and say here's what i want. now you go do it. so game on. >> paul, what did you think of the speech? do you thi

. >> reporter: twenty-year-old ericson, a student at montgomery college, said president obama is playing smart politics. >> and we were turning our back on him and she came right on you and said you know why i'm going to do this. >> reporter: will it work? will he get votes? >> i think he will. >> reporter: it will be a huge issue on the maryland ballot in november at the behest of o'malley, the maryland legislature opened state universities for many undocumented young people at in- state tuition rates. opponents of that law, however, gathered enough signatures to allow voters to decide if that will happen. matt? >> all right, john. thank you. >>> here in the district, a handful of families are without homes tonight. this is after a fire broke out at their apartment building and it happened this morning in southeast. the officials say they received a call about a crash fire. they witnessed people hanging out of the windows and trying to escape. >> i had to get out of the window to get rescued. i'm glad, i mean, other than that, i am glad awful my stuff -- . >> and the red cross is trying

. >>> he may not be a household name, but rocky ericson is a legend in his world of rock music.just a few musicians who played his songs. his own career derailed by mental illness however. but after a long climb back, he's on tour for the first time in more than two decades. rocky erickson is a legend for fans of early psychedelic music. in fact, he's been making music since he was a child. >> it was something i could always look forward to. if i would get out of school early, then i could go home and play guitar. >> the 13th floor elevators "you're gonna miss me" hit the charts in the 1970s. >> we have roky 17, making music, going to american bandstand. >> his son recalls the day his dad's world changed. >> the cops focused on him. he got arrested for picking up a person who had a joint on him. >> so to avoid prison, roky pleaded insanity and he was commit today a psychiatric hospital. he was diagnosed with pair noid schizophrenia and treated with electroshock therapy and experimental medications. >> he described it a little bit to me. and i didn't expect it. he said sometimes,

eric ericson, what are your head leans going to be? >> well, i think this may be the first debate where mitt romney didn't come out the clear winner, rick perry came in strong, and really i think everyone held themselves to the end, and perry needed to do well. i think he did well. i don't think the social security exchange helps mitt romney at all at a republican primary. he's foolish to continue, and he may want to go after perry on immigration or hpv. i think the majority of republican voters agree with perry. for the life of me, i can't understand why romney would go with this. bachman was going to make this a key point and back down from this. >> if you're a latino voter, the last thing you wanted to hear was some of the stuff you heard tonight. colorado, arizona, new mexico will be critical states when it comes to november 2012. the gop did themselves no favors tonight with latino voters. education did not come up in this debate at all. so much emphasis, you talk about social security, talking about a balanced budget. those -- >>

ericson? >> i will put out a statewide referendum and give voters a choice. how much of your total annual income would be fair to pay as a tax for health care to pay for public health care clinics and public health care hospitals, which would be no cost when you use them because you have paid for them with your tax? just like a public school. you don't pay an extra insurance when you send your kid to school. you are to pay for it by tax. and anybody not satisfied with the public health care clinics and hospitals paid for by taxes would buy their own insurance. but i would make certain that all insurance companies can sell their products in vermont. no more monopolies. >> thanks. ms. peyton? >> i would like to deal with the root causes of ill health. we need to look at financial stress, that there isn't enough money for people to participate in the economy, the types of ill health that causes. we also really need to create as pristine an environment as possible. we ought to ban monsanto, and understand that cleane whyn-air, clean water, are we are so healthy.

we know there's a fraud investigation into ericson.e're just getting the beginning details of this, we're expecting to hear more when she's in court on wednesday. >> thank you very much, sarah about you know, look. >> we've had her lawyer on the program many times. i want to go to the former district attorney for the southern district. harry, on the legal side here, let's start with this, how significant is this? >> they said no, no, no, no, no. nothing, she's in jail for months, and now all of a sudden, conspired with a russian government official against being a spy essentially? >> it's significant in the context of the national security investigation that led to her arrest in the first place. it's unusual for someone associated with russian intelligence to become a corroborating witness. they can't go home again. if she's really cooperating, that would seem to be something that would be very significant to the intelligence side. >> when we say david gergen, this is the nra republican circles, she met donald trump junior at an event.

. >> leif ericson, this is esperanza. greenpeace international executive director, kumi naidoo, is boarding the leif ericson as part of a peaceful protest. he's seeking a meeting with the captain of the rig, where he will present a petition signed by 50,000 supporters who demand to see cairn's oil spill response plan. >> tell me why you decided to board a rig and put yourself in harm's way. >> i feel that on a daily basis greenpeace activists and other environmental and social activists standing up for a more just, equitable and sustainable world are putting their lives on the line on a regular basis. i mean, at any given time greenpeace is taking some action to protect the environment somewhere in the world, and i believe that one of the important things about leadership is that if you are leading a movement or an organization leaders must periodically lead from the front. it's not as if, given the complexity of my job, i can be taking part in actions every other month or week, but from time to time it's important for le
