these things are taken as a matter of course such as a utility handed -- empty-handed. >> guest: barack obama in his latest interviews last few months said i don't understand all the moraes. you have given israel a possible launch literally in fact few people know that under the obama administration they conduct the question of the palestinian-israeli conflict. the reason why is beyond the politics. you can argue and debate that barack obama from day one made a settlement to the israeli conflict a part of the strategic interest in the united states. he was one of the first presidents to articulate the conflict as an extension of american security interest. on the first day in the white house, the first telephone call that he made was to the palestinian president and he promised to bring about. even the u.s. military would go public and say that resolution of the conflict has an impact on the lives. >> host: i wonder there was a critical development and i wonder if you think that when president obama first made the statement that the issue would be important, that's an old story that's not par

as you suggested, and the reason why i think barack obama, with barack obama and his father were tryingto basically undo some of the damage done by neoconservatives in particular, became really into contact and resistance by the system itself, the start journal institution and what they call the dysfunctional american system, special interest groups. this is the dysfunctional american political system which includes special interest groups, the congress, the foreign-policy is a whole. a foreign policy that really controls how policies are made. i mean, if you really want to understand, look at the team barack obama has. these people have the same faces, the same names, the same voices. not even a single dissenting voice. and this by itself, the same people come the same voices, the same narratives and that is why the policy itself is keeps re-imploding and that is why barack obama when he came -- the whole special interest groups -- three major confrontations with benjamin netanyahu and on three different occasions and he basically lost the three major confrontations. this is because he

but she was going to be an important adviser to barack obama. in fact, after he was elected president, oprah and president obama spoke at great length about advising him on his communication strategy, especially in terms of television, which he knows a lot about. when michelle and valerie jerrett heard about this, they said that this was a threat to their control over the access to the president. they don't like that at all. sident. they don't like that at all. so when oprah offered to do an oprah winfrey show to launch michelle obama's anti-obesity campaign, michelle held a meeting in the white house were the first lady has her office. and she said that i don't want some rich, fat woman being the emblem of my enter obesity campaign. oprah found out about that. she was furious. she said, and i ever tribute or myself. michelle doesn't like bridge or fat people. she doesn't want me waddling around the white house. she then wash your hands of the whole thing. and she has announced that she is not going to campaign in 2000 well for barack obama. two

hollywood is counting on barack obama. they have an allegiance to barack obama. emanual not have heard of but have seen his movies is jeffrey katzenberg and. he is the dreamworks animation c e o. he says this. i have a dependency on barack obama. we must keep fighting for him so he can keep fighting for us. hollywood is dependent in their own words on barack obama. he loves them and they loved him and that is how he launched into stardom. it goes back to a little-known story that i write about in "hollywood hypocrites". an individual named david geffen. you have seen his movies. he is part owner of dreamworks. he and bill clinton in the 90s were tight. they had a man crashed on each other. when david was in washington d.c. he would spend his time in the lincoln bed room. when bill clinton was in california he would crash at his had. but then bill clinton did what was considered unforgivable. he granted a pardon to a fu whtive finance year by the name of mark rich but refused to grant a pardon to leonard health --pelti --peltier. he is serving consecutive life sen

barack obama, who there is during much of this time. you mention he is out there doing a voter registration drive that benefits care -- >> guest: when she first iran in '92. >> host: so put obama in context of washington, of carol mosley braun, and then how his relationship with independent black politics, coalition, black politics, transformed as he began from that city and local stage to the national stage. >> guest: there's a lot going on there he runs for congress against bobby rush, who is community center black nationalist independent, gets squashed. doesn't win. he talks about sort of the need to build coalitions, which is true, and overwhelmingly black congressional district in a racially pollarrized city. and so you have that. but there's also some other -- as i talk about -- it's not just where he fits among the independents, which i think is important but there's a guy, fellow named samuel jones, who is president of the illinois senate. he has been in the trench. comes out of the machine, you know. i personally met him becaus

did it begin long before barack obama? >> guest: yeah you did and i talk about that a little bit in the book. actually i think it crystallized on very important policy issues that were implemented unfortunately like welfare reform and three strikes you're out. the impetus for black leaders and black voters to challenge those on those grounds but i'm looking for the revival of the policy because the other part of the title of this book which comes from -- is the price of the tickets of the price of the election of barack obama is the first black president is around important issues and racial inequality. to get the idea that we need to have a national conversation about race. you can even have a conversation about race around anything, so the symbolic, you know, it's the price up, it's the price of the ticket. i don't think this country can ever give up on discussing the legacies of racism in this country, the persistence of racism in this country and by not talking about it, not raising the issue on the national level, on

rush hates barack obama and hates that barack obama smoked a little weed and rush knows that he himselfict. that drugs had complete control over rush's life. rush limbaugh hates draft dodgers, he hates drug addict, and rush limbaugh is both a draft dodger and a drug addict. anyone with that much self-loathing coursing through him every minute of his life is a worthy subject of our pity. imagine, imagine the constant agony of being rush limbaugh. you see him sometimes shaking in his chair with hatred, as if he's doing everything he possibly can to get out all the hatred in him, but there's nor hatred in there than rush can ever get out, and that's the hatred that has him shaking in that chair. he is an enraged prisoner of that hatred, and that hatred, the hatred that he can never, ever get out is his tragic hatred of himself.

however, he's going to open his mouth for barack obama because his wife is hostage. they have her under lock and key as secretary of state, and he is scared that obama will lose and blame him if he undermines obama. so he will do everything he asks him to do and then he will jab him whenever he can. by the way, a cute story the viewers might appreciate, you mentioned that wednesday clinton is speaking instead of the vp. well, until 1996, the vp always spoke only on thursday night with the president. and i went to gore and i wanted to keep cuomo and kennedy and jackson off the podium in prime time. they wanted to steer us to the center so i told al i would like you to speak wednesday night. he raised a fuss. the ratings are bad and everything and finally clinton told me tell him he's got to do it so i did. and then gore mumbled under his breath he said what if i f it up? >> he said that? >> yep. in that moment i saw al gore clearly. he was the son of a senator, he was a son of a great man, and vp because of -- and there was a lack of confidence in that guy. >> pretty i

it is interesting barack obama would break bread with him because he talks about mean spirit did talk radio is and the political culture has become. back in 2008 he said obama's triumph was a chance to move beyond a master clinton. they say mr. clinton was a good to us and hired us. they have to understand it is a new day. he also says clarence timons-- clarence thomas thinks like whites there is a difference between having a black skin and black thinking he is accusing cuba gooding, jr. and acting 1/8 servile way to sellout in hollywood. and spike lee has gone after clint eastwood. he said his two movies flights of our fathers and letters from the iwo jima did not have enough black people. it was racist. it turns out the movie was about the soldiers that raised the flag. none of them were black. the second movie was told from the perspective of the japanese soldiers. none of those were black.

would you rather sit next to mitt romney or barack obama? it was overwhelmingly barack obama.t is not the question of this election. who will do a better job to move this country? >> 100 days to sway the undecided. the conversations with voters showing how little the daily media circus actually it moves its intended target. many voters know that he is not obama. >> it is a marathon. i do not think his religion is a central problem. i think the bigger problem from his inability to connect and understand people. he was asked about his wife's a hobby of the horse dressage. that is a politician's answer. he does not relate to people as a percent, or a human. . he is leading on that question by double digits. one of the things that has been quite striking -- this is going to be an extremely close election until the very end. if you go back to may, when the president really launched into his general election campaign, the race was a barack obama leading by 2 points. if you look at favorable or unfavorable, it is 2-1-and has been there for the last two months. all of those components

barack obama is the leader of what the problem is all about.that's growing government. >> sean: look at how bad things are. unemployment in the african-american community is over 14%. over 11% in the hispanic community. youth african-american unemployment 50%. we have a downgrade the first time in american history. federal spending of gdp, deficit, debt, is the highest since world war ii-- the highest. homeownership is the lowest since 1965. government dependency, the highest in american history. fewer people paying taxes than we have ever had in history. it seems -- and $5 trillion in debt. the president can't run on that. what would be the best message for governor romney to bring out to say, i will do "a," "b," "c" and "d" and this will fix the economy and get it on the right path. what message would you advise him? >> he already has the right message. that is that the free market works best and the constitution is the fine blueprint to take us toward a more perfect union, as opposed to barack obama's idea of growing government and taking aw

to make a compelling argument to make the case that what barack obama is able to do will be superior to what mitt romney is talking about. if he can do that, he will fulfill the mission that i think the obama campaign and the president really want him to do. >> it's going to be bill clinton against the giants and the cowboys that wednesday night in the middle of the convention. the latest gallup poll on bill clinton is the highest its been. this compares back to 1993 when he was coming into office. he's 66% favorable right now. 28% negative. he may at a zenith again. thank you both. and by the way, you don't want to miss tomorrow's "hardball." we got a couple other great guests. will ferrell and zach galifinakis. star of the new movie "the campaign." this is "hardball," the place for politics. i'm barack oba ma and i approve this message.

that is barack obama's legacy. mitt romney's legacy is success in business, making promises and keeping promises and that is something that this president would only dream of being able to campaign on through november. >> mr. chairman, i know it is early in las vegas. thanks for getting up for us. appreciate it. >> thank you, john. god bless. >> up next, the fallout of the supreme court's ruling on healthcare. we will ask about the house's upcoming effort to repeal obama care. >>> this week the house of representatives will vote once again to repeal the affordable care act. with us, congressman xavier becerra and congressman price. the repeal vote coming up on wednesday. the outcome 23409 likely to be different. why do you feel the need to do this again? >> it is an important question. the status quo in healthcare is not acceptable. the current system doesn't work for patients. it doesn't work for doctors. the president about's law takes us in the wrong direction. it violates all of the principles we hold dear in h
