is it bill clinton or barack obama? >> it is really barack obama. what is interesting is why she said that, around the time that bill clinton was attempting to talk about race. trying because he had a unique positioning or you can talk and tell that both of the churches are understood and welcomed. advantage. he comes in and tries to use that same language to talk to the country and gets spanked, to say slavery was wrong when he was in africa just got huge reviews, and then his sexuality beliefs. in much thein much the way black male sexuality has been perceived since slavery , you have this man who single -- signifies the single folks of blackness, single moms, a man child in the promised land of hope arkansas and have this aspect and demeanor and get on the pulpit and sounds just like a preacher. had he been black and jesse jackson white, president of the united states. people felt comfortable with him. it's a very particular thing. >> it is often said that was emphasized that he was biracial. how do you think that impacted his electability. every

and when they put that on barack obama i think it enraged him. the commentsthe comments that got him in trouble what really made in new hampshire , all in one day when this campaign became unraveled. and they started to make these untoward statements. their supporters are making ugly statements out of desperation. by the time they get to south carolina you have seminal figures same back off. need to back off his references. it really was about his iraq policy, but it did not matter at that point. by the time they get to south carolina, they were not used to running against not just a black man over the black community. once barack obama one iowa he had the african-american going away. and hereaway. and here it was, gone, and i don't think they knew how to handle it. >> when obama 1st announced his numbers were very low. now you say at some point whether it was iowa or four new hampshire the black community embraced him. what do you attribute that to? starting out so low-end and the phenomenal embrace. >> i think what you have, the african-america

with people line up for the opportunity the way they lined up for barack obama? that's the question. >> host: i will ask you to put on your predicting hat. what do you think will happen? do you think that she will be able to get the obama coalition to be as excited for her candidacy as for his? >> guest: i think you'll be hard for any candidate to get that same level only because "the audacity of hope" which was the name of his book this idea that you could take a one term united states senator, a young man with a name like that whose middle name is hussein whose first name rhymes with osama that you could take that improbable of a personage put him in the white house i think with such an emotional catharsis as an unlikely improbable thing that sets up expectations of this president that were so unrealistic and for a lot of young activists were involved in a wait for a lot of liberals, barack obama had not even been president for a year when the liberal part were fighting him and critiquing and attacking him for not doing enough and not being liberal enough. for n

you have barack obama looking a lot like a cowboy. notice his gun. it is a toy gun with a little bit of a cork stuffed into the edge. it says that he wants to spread democracy in syria. that you have vladimir putin looking like a more serious soldier. he wants to back up the legitimacy of the syrian states. two very different visions about what to do in syria. first of all, from "the washington post," making fun of -- a cartoon making fun of vladimir putin's political strategy in general. it seems he is drawing inspiration from the pope's visit to the united states. slightly different with the threatening missile there on a car. it says, "turn the other cheek, idea or you." and the french -- "turn the other cheek, i dare you." and now he is calling the shots when it comes to syria. once again, you can see the cartoon, vladimir putin looking very muscular. he is the superstar on the front page or you can see barack obama and francois hollande looking pretty depressed, pretty glum. he says we all agree that war is -- a won by a bunch of play on words -

vladimir putin will be meeting with president barack obama. do we expect vladimir putin to address the topic of isil and terrorism as well? >> oh, i think in a big way. i mean, the tone of russian diplomacy in the last few days has been to talk up islamic extremism. this is not a new topic. the russians have been concerned about the threat of terrorism from their southern borders. it will be a focus today whether he'll say anything new is another matter. we know perfectly well that the russians want to support assad that they think there should be some international coalition including assad, including them and the irans to focus on isil as the problem in syria. that's not a fresh position from them at all. >> it may not an fresh position, but we're hearing more about it now. why now? why this timing? >> well, one reason alone is the intervention of russian military forces in syria and in a much more aggressive way than we've seen before. russia has supplied enormous amounts of weaponry to the assad regime already. what we're now seeing is tha

or is that barack obama? >> guest: it's clearly barack obama.when toni morrison labels it was around the time bill clinton was attempting, he had that unique position. a former southern governor who lived with african-americans were where you can talk to both of them and would be understood welcome. he had that at advantage of white southerners. he comes and andy tries and he attempts to face labor. and then to see a sexuality which was the other thing that triggered. here you have this man -- the single mom the difficult upbringing and the responsibilities he took on as a child and then you have this aspect and demeanor going to a black church and getting on the pulpit and sounding just like a preacher. had he been black and jesse jackson white bill clinton would have been a preacher and jackson would have been the president of the united states. i think people felt comfortable with him. clearly he didn't have to face the slings and arrows. bill clinton didn't have to deal with that. >> host: is often said th

but remember, south carolina was barack obama's breakthrough state back in 2008. it's the state where he crushed hillary clinton and decisively turned around the democratic race. and those same african-american voters keyed that victory, and with them obama remains deeply and immensely popular. so what if joe biden, what if barack obama's loyal vice president comes to south carolina next february with a real chance to knock off hillary clinton, to do exactly what barack obama did back in 2008? and what if, and this is a big, big, big if, but what if the president then at that moment decided to reward his ever-loyal vice president, a man with whom by all accounts he has grown very close to personally, what if the president used that occasion, that moment to recommend to those south carolina voters that they cast their ballots for his vice president, for joe biden? again, it's a huge, huge if. but it's the kind of thinking, the kind of gaming all of this out, that will get any ambitious politician's mind racing. it is the kind of thinking that maybe could make joe bi

i don't believe in unilateral disarmament, but i believe in barack obama. i was excited about barack obama because he went all across the country talking about the corrupting influence of money inside the system. the lobbyists were the problem with the system. if we don't change the way washington works, none of the reforms will matter. he was right about that. the problem is when he got to washington, i imagine there was a conversation with rahm emanuel where he says i want to take on this corrupt system and rahm says "it can't happen." let's get onto to the other issues. so he gave up the moral mandate i think he had that would have been extraordinarily powerful to bring about this change. john: if a candidate like barack obama ran while collecting a vast amount of money and promising to change the system and doing nothing to change the system -- if that candidate, who you invested so much hope in, turned out to be untrustworthy on this issue, why is any candidate going to be trustworthy on this issue, including you? mr. lessig: well, because, barack obam

president obama promises if you try to do anything on obamacare, i, barack obama, will veto funding for the entire federal government and shut it down, and republican leadership compliantly says okay, fine, we'll fund obamacare. president obama then understanding he's got a pretty good trump card here, he can pull out any time. next he says okay, republicans fund my unconstitutional executive amnesty. it's contrary to law. it's flouting federal immigration law. but you republicans fund it anyway, or else i, barack obama, will veto funding for the entire federal government and shut it down, and republican leadership says at the outset okay, we'll fund amnesty. and now you turn to planned parenthood. barack obama, this will surprise no one, says fund 100% of planned parenthood with taxpayer money. mind you, planned parenthood is a private organization. it's not even part of the government. but it happens to be politically favored by president obama and the democrats. planned parenthood is also the subject of multiple criminal investigations. for being caught on tape apparently carrying ou

barack obama doesn't think about his base that way. and that's the type of leadership we had over the last couple years. the reason that tom cole can paint that picture of the accomplishments was for the last five years conservatives have fought tooth and nail to top his on his agenda. amnesty, which is not what the conservative base wants. we want a leadership that shows conservative values, how they can make life better for the americans, and sending it to the president's desk, so we can have conflict and conversation. we've had to fight our own speaker. that has ended. >> george, is boehner the problem? there the next speaker be able to do any more, given you have barack obama in the oval office? >> we're going to find out. if big changes occur back boehner is gone, this will be a huge event. it will be an even bigger event if it turns out not much changes. given the analogy a major league baseball team, they can hit, pitch or field the ball. in the middle of the season, they fire the manager. the next game, the next day, new manage

the problem is barack obama and the democrats. if we focus on that, we can get something done. >> and no matter what you did in the house, there were enough, there was a democratic majority in the senate, and you do have barack obama as president. what realistically could he have done more? >> well, we told people give us the senate and things will be different. but things are not that different. we're paying more attention to polls and filibuster roles in the senate than what we promised to do. we're using 1994 tools, when they used to go through the legislative branch. they have gone around, and unless we're able to pass legislation out of the house and senate, we'll no longer be an effective check against the executive branch. >> that's not the case. presidents do have authority to run the executive branch. but if you look at things like making bush tax cuts permanent, and reform, it's a remarkable record of accomplishment. >> but why did he lose the confidence of dozens of members of house republicans? >> i would argue, what h
