. >> well the president is not known for his legislative acumen. without nancy pelosi, there wouldn't be the affordable care act. so there is a problem when the white house isn't fully engaged on the hill with even the members of its own party. so for something big to happen, i agree, there are things that are emerging that we can work on. but the mistrust level is so high, and the way that these guys -- the dynamic that has evolved over the six years, we're going to have to go back to a basic legislative process and put some stuff on the president's desk and see what he does. >> thank you very much to all of you we'll see. stay tuned to cnn for a special america's choice tonight with wolf blitzer and jake tapper beginning at 10:00 eastern. >>> and "outfront" next, the new congress already disagreement around republicans. guys, can't you have a day or 24 hours. breaking news and police and soldiers run over by cars in two separate terror attacks today. is more coming to israel?

this's gesture to petroleum benevolence and a closing acumen of gold we forgot splicing, i think we see the remnants of the second crude awakening today. a third awaking really follows chronologically in the 1950's and 1970's, the rise of the wildcat oilman we are familiar with in texas. wildcat was a response defensive to what the american government was doing, partnering major oil companies with washington to open up foreign fields. it was defensive in the sense that independent oil producers here in the southwest especially -- their vision of their industry was being challenged. a number of prophets stepped up to this point to champion the rule of capture. a very evangelical ideology. one of them was robert kerr, i hopeful, optimistic wildcat or as oklahoma's governor and senator in the 1940's and 1950's, he labored to meet independent oil's needs and carry the mantle for the dispossessed, i'll be at a wealthy dispossessed, working all of his connections to give small produces the protections they deserve. what is interesting here is how robert kerr, a prominent southern baptist, was

were the white anglo-saxon protestants who had the technological expertise, but not the business acumen to take it further. with those companies did was to form the motion picture trust in 1908. that essentially formed a .onopoly keeping others out in response, people like mayor, wembley, and fox moved the motion picture industry to california. there are legends they chose los angeles because it was close to the mexican border so they could easily escape the long arms of the trust. i don't believe that, but i think they came to california for the opportunities for locations. you have the deserts, mountains, ocean, all within easy striking distance. 330 days out of 365. they came here to escape the trust. they started their own movies. one important factor that allow these people to succeed was edison biograph and fight a graph, they understood their audience. they were immigrants themselves. -- theyre large for were large members of the movie audience. they effectively gave the audience what they wanted. which is still hollywood's credo. you give the audience what they want. you try to

these were the white an glo-saxons who did not have the business acumen to take it further. so what those companies -- edison biograph did -- was form the morning -- the motion picture company that formed a monopoly keeping others out. in response, people like mayer the motionoved picture industry to california. alleges that they chose los angeles because it was close to the mexican border so they could escape the long arm of the trust. to californiacame for the opportunities you have in terms of location. you've the ocean, the mounds, the desert, the forest. outthe sun shines 330 days of 365. in any case, they did come here startede the trust, their own movies. i think one important factor that allowed these people to succeed where edison biograph theyitagraph did not is understood their audience. they were immigrants. a large percentage of the movie audience in the early years were immigrants. effectively gave the audience what they wanted, which i think is still hollywood's credo. give the audience what you want. you do not create messages. you try to fulfill dreams and n

a hard-working, patient leader, barkley used his wit, charm, and legislative acumen to help push through much of roosevelt's new deal legislation. and later, as leader, critical wartime legislation. barkley was also a committed internationalist, supporting the creation of the u.n., nato, and the marshall plan. as illinois senator paul douglas said of barkley, no one was better versed than he in how to get legislation enacted with a minimum of friction. a testament to his abilities as reflected in the work of the committee chaired by then senator john f. kennedy, in the 1950's. the senate panel was tasked with selecting the five most illustrious senators of all time. barkley was among the finalists for the honor. at the end of the day, one would have to agree with president truman. he ranked barkley as one of the greatest legislators of all times. so i would leave you all to consider the towering legacy of alben barkley. an unquestioned giant in the history of the senate, in the history of kentucky, and in the history of paducah. thank you very much.
