what retrying to accomplish? >> i have been interested as it intellectual and there is a new testament with aspects of christian religion as the apocalyptic expectations i think it is a lot of fun. that is inspiring. is a personal interest that if people realize how much there is there would be many more people involved and the question does not have to be asked whether you trying to accomplish? >> professor you say you are the episcopalian. are you a devout christian? >> there is a professor at harvard any relation? >> no. >> you speak very highly of him. >> i don't think highly of his tendency to reduce social concerns that i think it is eloquently stressed in that is a it is eloquently stressed in that is a fundamental book i do agree with some of that. >> talk about the saint john divine cathedral the largest cathedral in the world by volume in the world seedeaters basilica. but that church of saint john of the divine it is a magnificent church to say what does everyone? it ended is more romanesque and then i

the things that she accomplished cost the democrats control of the house.that could be something that will be part of her legacy. >> two people know where you're coming from on that day in 1994 when the republicans took back the house of representatives? did you have a smile on your face or a scowl? >> it wasn't a scowl but it wasn't a smile either. i worked for a democrat and he was one of the democrats but did not lose so it was morris i have relieved, quite frankly because it was a year in which almost every democrats, it was a wave election. there was shock and relief i suppose. but then also a bit of intellectual curiosity. now the republicans have a turn and let's see what happens next. >> what do you teach? i. >> i teach several classes in american politics in congress. for part of that course i have the students play a member of congress and try to get a bill and acted through their house of representatives. that's a great experience for the students and myself. i also teach a course called power in american politics regarding different aspects of p

betty what does he hope to : accomplish in the u.s.? >> i think a lot can be accomplished. i believe the following three areas are very important. first, it is for the two leaders to have in-depth discussions following the discussion in california and in beijing about the international situation, about our respective country's policies. to chart a way forward further in our relationship. we expect that there will be quite a few positive practical cooperation results flowing from the visit. what people called "deliverables." i believe that the president will reach out to the american society to build the friendship between our two people. betty: people have said for this visit could be compared to the visit in 1979. is that important to the relationship between the u.s. and china. is that accurate? how critical is this visit to china? >> his visit to the united states was a historic visit, opening up the relationship between our two countries. i think this visit is also vitally important. the united states has actually emphasized that they hope that this relationship and thi

he he went forward and accomplish great things.i don't know that a case has been made in any way, the attempt on his life had caused a change in history that caused an eventual death of a president, for a president to fail. guest: i agree with you completely. the nice thing about this book as you can have your view and i can have my view. if reagan had not been shot by john hinckley junior, it would not have been any oval office meeting with his top advisers who loved him, consider removing him from the presidency. it never would have happen. because i believe reagan b ran his governorship efficiently and there's no problem with him on the job there. i believe he campaigned in a way that was very efficient, he was very energetic, he wasn't watching tv and soap operas. he was very engaged. his first weeks in the presidency he had a goal, he was going to accomplish the goal, and then he get shot and all change. that's what i believe. what i believe. we documented strongly throughout the book. but you're free to have your opinion. i l

that's what our focus is, our intelligent is, and that's what we're going to accomplish.est candidate with the best record, the most conservative accomplishments with the vision to move the country forward. and so what are we doing? we're investing even more resources on the ground in the states where we already have the most formidable grassroots teams. that's where the impact is going to be felt on election day, and that's where the candidate's time is going to be spent, so we're making wise decisions for the future. jenna: understood. okay, so you're confident in that. just to bring our conversation full circle, because we've got the debate tomorrow, and that's going to be something a lot of people are watching and specifically who jeb bush focuses on as his main competitor. i know you haven't said directly that rubio really is the gop's president obama as has been, apparently, discussed behind closed doors, but who do you see as your greatest rivalry? who are you focusing on in the field as you take a look at it as it stands today? >> great question. we're focusing on

it still took 12 years to accomplish the brady bill.n stockton, california, more than 30 people were mowed down by an assault weapon. in fact, an automatic machine gun. and the ban against assault weapons took five years to accomplish. so every reform has a tipping point. i think this incident, this horrific, unspeakable tragedy, must like sandy hook could be the tipping point. and that's why we're introducing a very common sense, sensible measure to close the loophole in the existing law. so that no gun will be sold without a background check. >> what is a default sale? explain, i think people probably don't understand that this even exists. >> absolutely right. the default sale, in essence, occurs when 72 hours have passed. and the background check is incomplete. at that point, the gun dealer, a licensed gun dealer, is permitted, not required, but allowed, to make a sale. in other words, if there's no completed background check, the sale can go forward. now walmart voluntarily has said it's not selling guns to anyone without a backgro

there are a lot of children of very successful people who have not accomplished as much as you've accomplished>> i think growing up with a very accomplished parent can either be one of two things. it can either be debilitating in that you're so afraid that you won't measure up, that you never take those important first steps. sometimes you just have to start. >> you don't even want to try. >> you don't even want to. i've seen people almost paralyzed by a fear of failure in the early years where failure's almost expected. when you're not supposed to really know how to do it. where you're supposed to be trying new things. failing, succeeding. and discovering the right path for yourself. so i've seen that side of the equation. then i've seen other people that find that the pressure that the criticism and the skepticism imposed upon them is motivating. and for me, it was. i'm a competitive person. you know, the more people that dismiss me or underestimated me, i think, the stronger and more emboldened i became. and so, i found, you know, to y today, i'm a lot less reactive to the opinions of other

mark: he was asked what has been accomplished. he said, here is a thing with -- we accomplished.this committee and our numbers went down. i want to be the horse to death, but it seems to me that part of what is going on now is you all are trying to circle the wagons around mr. mccarthy, when the reality is he said something pretty straightforward. >> i don't think so. i think he misspoke, i don't think he believes it was politically motivated. kevin has been with -- involved with this from the very beginning. mark: did he miss the or was he missed her eyes? did he misspeak or was he mischaracterized? >> a little bit of both. you talk all day, you are going to be mischaracterized. but i don't think it is the end of the committee. john: do you think that he will be speaker or not? >> i think it is very much still up in the air. kevin doesn't have 218 votes, which is what he needs. he is speaking with the caucus tonight, as are mr. webster and mr. chaffetz. he is the leader in the vote tally. john: you are an endorser of rand paul. can you give us a sense of how concerned you more a

with the, you can accomplish everything. without it, nothing. the public sentiment is there.sing the minimum wage, paid sick leave, quality, affordable childcare, for our seniors, it is therefore comprehensive immigration reform, it is therefore background checks to make america safer. in order to make all of these things happen, we must unleash the power of women. women at the polls, women at the ballots, women in every walk of life. thesecurity of our country, quality of our education system, the savior of families, every issue you can enter. yet again and again, republicans have shown their a comfortable of session with attacking women's health care, even at the expense of everything else in our country. last month, 151 house republicans voted to shut down government rather than allow to affordable family planning and life-saving preventative health care. two thirds of the republicans government,wn the mr. speaker, and if you don't, give us your gavel. this is all about the lacked of of respect -- the lack respect for women to make their own decision. and were we proud of

look at what we accomplished with no help from anyone

they haven't accomplished anything. >> mike, some people say if you don't accomplish anything that's good for taxpayers. >> the reason why they're having this uprising, david, because when they were elected in congress they haven't done what the people who elected them asked them to do, to put a stop to obama's reckless spending and contempt for the constitution. you get somebody like jim jordan in there, a man of principle, did not vote for the crazy spending bill last year that went right through the debt limit and added to the deficit and then really start to see more money going to the private sector and start to get the economy back on track. >> rich, is this good or bad for the taxpayer, this chaos? >> it's good because mccarthy would have been a disaster. we know already he can't communicate very well and brings up the point. you not only have to have great policy as steve talked about ans pled people, you can have to have people to articulate why it matters to the american people and connect it to the economic growth. >> well, before we dump all over what boehner did and for

whether john kerry can get anything accomplished.e needs to be reminded of the source of many of those tensions, beginning with the iran deal, prime minister benjamin netenyahu in his unprecedented and controversial step of addressing the u.s. congress, trying to talk them into voting against the iran deal. prime minister netenyahu on the eve of the election -- it was presumed to be very close in israel, coming out against the two-state solution, a long-held policy of not only the israelis but the united states as well, trying to backtrack from that. prime minister netenyahu himself due here in washington, held up as evidence of the strength of the relationship by the white house, due for a visit to the white house on november 9th. so unclear what secretary kerry can accomplish when he does go to the middle east, and we're awaiting another visit from prime minister netenyahu. >> as we watch him speak it is clear the animosity between the prime minister and the palestinian leader is testy. does anybody in washington believe there is a

i also think the question would not have to be asked why did you do this, what we trying to accomplish because everybody could see this is a fascinating subject. >> host: you say you are an episcopalian. do you consider yourself a christian or a devout christian? >> guest: i don't know all the evidence is in but i consider myself a question. >> host: there is a religion professor at harvard named harvey cox. any relation? >> no relation. >> you speak highly of him. >> i speak highly of certain ideals of his blue -- i don't think highly of -- what i regard as tendency to reduce christianity to social concerns and modern liberal social concerns. i think is eloquently expressed in his book, that is a fundamental. i don't agree with most of it. i do agree with some of the. >> host: you open this book talking about st. john the divine cathedral. >> guest: is a church of my own denomination, largest cathedral in the world by volume. st. peter's basilica doesn't count. need to do some manipulation of statistics, the church of st. john the divine which has been a building since the 1880s and w

because those are such accomplishments. after you win a pulitzer, the next time you go to sit down to write, does it push you to write more or does it make you want to write less and say, "you know what, i won a pulitzer. 'f' this." [ laughter ] >> i mean, i barely write. i'm, like, the slowest writer there is. i am. i'm, like, the slowest writer i know. and i guess there is, like, a whole line of people inside of me putting a ton of pressure. it's like i've got -- it's like that airplane movie. there's a line of people with baseball bats and chains looking to oppress me. so the pulitzer prize is like all the way at the back. i've got -- they've got to wait to get through my dad, my mom, all that stuff. [ laughter ] so i haven't felt it yet. but when it comes, it's probably going to break my skull open. >> seth: all right. well, that's good. i hope it gets there soon. you need the pulitzer to show and say, "hey, remember me?" >> you used to be good. >> seth: you're still great. and i'm so happy about this.

and what were you trying to accomplish? >> guest: oh, that's a good question. i've been interested in christianity as an intellectual, and i'm a professor of literature, literary concern for many years. i published a book called "the new testament as literature" nine years ago. i've published articles about various aspects of american christian religion, especially apocalyptic expectation, so i've had a long-term interest in american christianity. i think it's a lot of fun. i think there's nothing more exciting, as i said, comic, tragic, inspiring, disillusioning, there's nothing more fascinating than the history of american christianity. it's just, it's a personal interest i find irresistible. and i think if people realize how much there is to find out about human life by studying this history, there would be many more people involved in its study. and i think also then the question wouldn't have to be asked, you know, why did you do this, what were you trying to accomplish, because everybody could just see this is a fascinating subject. >> host: professor cox

they fully understand the rule, zach says sportsmanship mattered far more than his individual accomplishment...

and i'm going to spend the next 15 months in this office pushing as hard as i can to accomplish this because i know there are democrats and republicans on the hill who share our passion to silence this deadly disease. if i could be anything, i would want to be the president that ended cancer because it is ossible. i also believe we need to keep moving in the arc of this nation toward justice. the rights of the lgbt community, immigration reform, equal pay for women, protecting their safety from violence. rooting out institutional racism. at their core every one of these things is about the same thing. it's been equality, fairness, respect. as my dad used to say it is about affording every single person dignity. it is not complicated. every single one of these issues is about dignity and the ugly forces of hate and division. they won't let up but they do not represent the american people. they do not represent the heart of this country. they represent a small fraction of the political elite. and the next president is going to have to take it on. most of all, i believe there's unlimite

that was quite an accomplishment.a lot of other countries that were post-conflict did not have anything like the positive elections libya did. in july of 2012 the transitional government handed over power to a new general national congress in august. we were doing everything we could think of to help libya succeed. we tried to bolester the effectiveness. we worked hard to get chemical weapons coordinating with transition libyan authorities, with the u.n. and others. by february of 2014 you had assisted in destroying the last of gadhafi's chemical weapons. we were combatting the spread of shoulder -- anti-aircraft shoulder fired missiles because of the danger that they posed to commercial aircraft and we were providing assistance, some of which i discussed earlier. we are humanitarian assistance. we brought people for health to europe and to the united states. much of what we offered despite our best efforts we had the prime minister come to washington in the spring of 2012. much of what we offered was difficult for th

he has faced many challenging situations and decisions and also celebrated many great accomplishments. he ranged to hear from great leaders such as israel's prime minister and ukranian president. most recently, he orchestrated the head of the roman catholic church, pope fran list. he has improved our education system and the lives of all children. it has been an honor and privilege to serve along side him in this chamber and with the ohio delegation. mr. speaker, one fun fact about speaker boehner and i, we both love to play golf. and i played a lot of courses together with him but never in the same foursome. i look forward to joining you with a friendly round of 18. i thank speaker boehner and his family for his service and dedication to our country. thank you and i yield back. mr. chabot: i yield to the gentlelady from ohio. ms. kaptur: i would like to yield time to the gentleman from illinois, mr.ly pins ki of chicago. mr. lipinski: thank you for yielding. i want to rise to commend the public service and commitment of speaker john boehner. the speaker has much to be proud of. and a

she didn't accomplish anything. i listen to that for awhile. and then i thought, you know, maybe they just don't know. so i have now sent each of them a copy of my book "hard choices" about what we did during those four years. so, you know, there are -- there are so many of them, they could have a book club, and they could -- if they want to know how you put together a coalition that imposes international sanctions on a country like iran, they can read about it. because that's what i did. >> and while touring an outdoor market in iowa yesterday, clinton also told reporters that she'll reveal soon her opinion on the newly finalized tpp trade deal. >> talking to people about it, they're giving me all the information they can gather, so that i can make -- >> do you have a position soon? >> oh, yeah, i will definitely have a decision. >> on the issues clinton finds herself caught in between her former boss, president obama, and labor unions that oppose the deal. vermont senator bernie sanders has already come out against it, calling the agreement,

i think she has accomplished more than most people have accomplished in five night times. you need age-old of that. he is really laying some nice groundwork. it is the connotations of the word socialism. john: you can see madam ass.etary being a hard six years since the last one, what made you decide i want to do this time-consuming thing? and take it out and put it out in the world? jill: i really can't feel like i can't not do the music writings. i never thought i could make the album. i sat there, i wrote to these yous, my husband said should pursue this, don't give up on this. i sort of had this mentality that life is short, throw it against the wall and see if it sticks. ♪ records untiling i physically can't anymore. mark: our thanks to jill hennessy. we will be right back. for karene trouble heranos. t ♪ i emily chang in bloomberg best west. what it takes to view industry leader like bill gates, jeff bezos, and steve jobs very

but as a read about people of accomplishment, it didn't bother me as much.se i began to realize i had control over that. that i could make decisions and put energy behind them and i could pretty much control my own life. something that was constantly reinforced by my mother. became a little bit of an outsider in the sense that i was not listening to a lot of people who were saying you cannot do this, nobody can do that. charlie: because you were poor, or because you were black? ben: both. i refuse to listen to it. i was ostracized, called names, uncle tom, trying to be white, all these things. but it didn't bother me. , let's seel people what i'm doing in 20 years and let's see what you are doing in 20 years. i guess ultimately they believed me. they voted me most likely to succeed. when i came back for a 25th high school reunion, i was shocked to see that the cool guys were pretty much all dead. everyone else was coming up to me and saying how proud they were, and don't i remember how they used to encourage me? interesting how it changes over the course of

it -- not saying it would be easy to accomplish that or other members of congress could have done a better job but that is what was missing from the equation and what led to so much of the conflict, the government shutdown last winter, was the difficulty of boehner and the leadership team, whether it was inability for just not a possible situation to get members to understand that the direction that many of them wanted to go would problematic. and one other thing, which is the minority party in the house of representatives. now, if boehner had been able to get votes of democrats to avoid a government shutdown and do something else, this wouldn't have been an issue, and in decades past, something like that was possible. but in today's highly partisan congress, that's just not something that speakers have at their disposal. minority parties refuse to give votes to the majority. now they have to get only the vote thieves majority party, and if you have a critical mass of members of congress in your party who don't want to good along, glory real trouble. so this is something that has made it h
