you said that archie bunker's character was based on your father. did your father seem like a racist? >> it didn't represent my father, he was not what he was doing he would shout at me and i was the dumbest white kid he'd ever met. to that degree when i read about "to death us do part" the british show, not exactly the way archie, you know, the takeoff point was, my father's i don't even like to use the word bigotry, he just -- progress, he was -- he was concerned. >> opinionated? >> and afraid about progress. he was everywhere where the grass was green and knew everything. >> what was it like to grow up in that kind of household with someone that was so opinionated? >> it wasn't easy but i think it's generally hard to be a human being. i don't care what the -- you know how one was born, it is hard to be a human being. harder, for many, quite obviously, across the globe but hard in any event, no matter the circumstance of birth. just to be a human being. >> you wrote in your book i'm going to paraphrase it a little bit here, but if your father had

. >> and there's archie bunker's chair. cool stuff there. it was obviously -- you can tell how thrilled i am. >> jimmy: where's my head? >> it was very early in the morning. we had to get up early. it was a very early morning thing, but that's cool. very cool. >> jimmy: you've been shooting a movie in atlanta since the finale? >> yes, indeed. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: with your -- >> with former sidekick zach galifianakis. >> jimmy: yeah, yeah. he's great. do you have fun with zach? >> yes. it's impossible not to have fun. >> jimmy: he is a lot of fun. >> we're in atlanta. zach's from the south, he's actually from north carolina. but he has family all over the south. and so getting more than one galifianakis in a room? amps up the chaos level by, you know, by sort of an exponential degree. so i got to see a lot of his cousins and uncles and aunts. galifanaki is the plural. >> jimmy: you guys were at bonnaroo, which is a big music festival -- >> in tennessee. >> jimmy: in tennessee. >> close to georgia. >> woo! good enough. >> jimmy:

. >> archie bunker quality. and even the verbal words enhance. that the second thing is he's having fun. i spent a bunch of time with jeb bush in iowa. he is just so joyous. >> bush wanted joy. >> he seems so joyless. jeb bush seems like he is slogging through the campaign. trump is the happy warrior. can you not underestimate -- >> it's magnetic. >> you can't underestimate the importance of that and how much voters pick up on a candidate who sen joig himself. >> we have kacie hunt standing by. we want to get john meachum in a bit. it's interesting. not only is he able to speak off the cuff and for extended -- but it's beginning to build into something that i think people underestimated. john meachum and also the importance of the joy. >> and also how the establishment is caught asleep at the wheel. i guarantee you this morning people are looking at this and their noses are going up in the air. i still think some people don't get it. >> you know, i remember -- it's been 25 years but having some really smart politically engaged friends who very ea

from the protest candidate, the beetle candidate who said i'm not going to take it anymore to an archie bunkerter in a suit. he's insulting people, making derogatory comments. he's continuing in the fight. he just does not look presidential to me. >> judy? >> of course, i was looking at the happy hour debate along with 6 million other americans. i think clearly fox news is kind of one of the big winners out of this. >> oh, yeah. >> not only the superb questions but how many people tuned in which really reverses our thinking that there were too many debates last time people wouldn't watch. carly fiorina surprised everybody out of that. you know, it gave special attention and highlighted that thin blue line of men in blue suits in the primetime debate. >> yeah. >> it's not just the top factor. it's the fact that there are no women there, and when you talk -- ted cruz talks about prosecuting planned parenthood, when senator rubio talks about forcing women to carry fetuses to full term after a rape or an insist, there is a woman's issue. 53% of the electorate, guys, you cannot ignore us, eventuall

were murdered and he said things about states rights that were meant to be a dog whistle to the archie bunker crowd. so he turned off african-americans from the get go. and what reagan's message had in common with the meat and potatoes message you're hearing from donald trump is that the substitute slogan for it could be "it's time you got yours." this attitude of the african-americans, they got theirs, they got the white house. the gays are getting theirs, look at all of us focused on gay marriage. the latinos got theirs, they get to come over the border, look they're everywhere in our country. it's time you got yours. he's saying to that middle aged right guy, whether he's rich, middle-class or broke "i'm going to make sure you get yours. this is going to be your country again." it's a very ethnically polarizing appeal and it can only appeal to that white guy. it isn't going to appeal to african-americans and latinos because when what he's saying to that white guy, you're getting your, he means getting yours and taking it away from or pushing away the rest of us and saying this is your amer

>> "the jeffersons" started as neighbors of archie bunker. >> don't call me honky. >> why are you soll of a sudden? >> how would you like it if i called you nigger? >> he called me nigger! >> that's no worse than honky. >> you're right. nothing is worse than being called a honky except being married to one. >> norman lear set the stage for other shows in the '70s that just brought gravitas to television. >> what are you staring at? >> i was just thinking, i ought to bring my neighbor's kids over here. this place is better than the zoo. if you qualify for a sittingham's card today i can offer you no interest for 24 months. thanks to the tools and help at experian.com, i know i have an 812 fico score, so i definitely qualify. so what else can you give me? same day delivery. the ottoman? thank you. fico scores are used in 90% of credit decisions. so get your credit swagger on. go to experian.com, become a member of experian credit tracker, and take charge of your score. woman: this is not exactly what i expected. man: definitely more murdery than the reviews said. captain obvious: this

there is all this class -- again, it's the archie bunker billionaire mentality. we can sit here and be shocked he said it. we're certainly saying around this table he shouldn't have said it. the political impact i suspect won't hurt him but will only reinforce his political brand. >> i think that crowd responded very well from his point of view on that. i don't like anthony weiner. i think it's outrageous what he said. he would not say that about jake sullivan, another aide. he's obviously telling his wife or girlfriend about classified information. among the other i think terrible offenses here, it's just another example of trump's sexism. does it work? i suspect it does. >> we have all the big stories covered this morning including presidential politics with hugh hewitt. question ask him about this. the war with isis with congressman adam kinsinger and big nfl investments with sal pal tone yoe. but first, bill karins with a check on the forecast. >> joe is right. i saw leaves yesterday, too. i was in upstate new york. it's so dry. we haven't had a lot of rain.

[laughter] >> they liken it to archie bunker. the modern-day version of that.art: next, the latest on the tom brady trial, while even as the ball seemed be losing interest. quite a way of promoting the story. why one test is coming on the show later as we should really be google's new humanlike robot. >> there is no way my luck is that bad. stuart: people in bangkok still reeling from that blast that left a reporter and 20 people dead. police say the attack was part of a network. they haven't specified the character or nature or name of that network. officials have released a sketch of a key suspect seen leaving it back back pack in the area where the bomb went off. police say he did not act alone and the thai citizens were involved. a blast occurred in a popular tourist area now reopened to the public tourism is that bone. to the markets, looking south and a moment down nearly 150 points. remember we've got a fed minutes released this afternoon. the question is are they going to raise rates next month yes or no. some people suggest they will and it will be don
