ben went away from the metaphor. >> i understand. we have 60,000 troops in europe, account for 3/4 of the budget of nato. we are still a superpower and have chosen for budget reasons not to pursue space the way we used to. we were relatively friendly with russia. while i think the metaphor is right, i agree with everything gary said. we do have these structural problems. fox news alert. we can't lose sight of the fact we still are the world's military superpower, far more powerful than russia. >> where does this go? bottom line is the world doesn't follow or lead the president's poll numbers continue to get worse. americans' perception about where they stand doesn't seem to get much better. >> that's why i was never in favor of doing away with the space shuttle program then having this gap, which we've known about for years. president bush signed off on getting rid of the space shuttle program. we would have this gap when we wouldn't have a way through nasa to get our astronauts to the space station. we would be hitching rides. i did

ben's point is a good one.e the debate about what entitlements mean and things like that. when the comments are made against the backdrop of a 24 hour right wing news cycle which is constantly just shaming poor people. that has become a pillar of this programming. that it's impossible to have the intelligent debate because, again, it's something much more divisive and your point is true. >> ben, do you feel that declinist thing is a real tension, the base wants to hear the apocalypse is nigh and politicians recognize they can't sell that? >> i realize there's some degree of truth to that but i have to say if that really was completely true, we would have heard donald trump's plan for how he's going to block out the sun or something along those lines. i think there is a limit to the apocalyptic rhetoric and you heard some hopeful things i think as well from a lot of different people. yes, there's certainly something that sells to the base and needs to be adapted to sell to a wider audience. i think they know tha

ben, let me start off with you. what is the situation you have been witnessing over the last 12-24 hours on the ground? >> certainly what we're seeing is that the russians are very much in control of all major areas in crimea, we were today at a court in the eastern part of the country where we saw a contingent of about 100 of these so-called men in green. we spoke to their commander and he in fact did have a hat with an insignia of the russian black fleet. he said his name was alexander, he said they'd been there since the 1st of march. we saw that locals were coming to offer them food, support, shelter and even showers. so we're seeing that the russians are deploying in areas where the local population is sympathetic to them. in this town we're seeing also that they've been fairly well received. this, of course, is a town where the ukrainian navy is headquartered, outside that headquarters there were about 30 men today rather this evening, some of them waiving russian flags. the headquarters are barricaded. but it

ben, thanks for taking the time to do this. i know it's a very busy day at the white house.st first get, you know, the white house position on this crimean referendum. do you see this as russian strong-arming? >> well, look, alex, we have've been very clear that you cannot make decisions about parts or regions of ukraine without the government of ukraine at the table. nor can you do it in a time when the people in crimea are under coercion from russian forces. so this is not a legit gnat exercise, it's not consistent with the ukrainian constitution, and we will reject it as will our european allies. we won't recognize the results of this type of exercise. >> ben, you know, what struck me in the last few days is the sharpness of the rhetoric. putin's rhetoric is a little more muddled but certainly out of the white house and from the state department we are using language that we have not -- there's a sharpness to the correspondence, if you will, that has not been present in several years. and even today there is i think ten false claims about ukraine on the state department w

well, let's go live to bbc's ben brown who joins me from sevastopol in crimea. ben?ik, thank you very much. it is the political development that's really crucial today. and i think the referendum that has been caused by the parliament today will be on march 16th. 78 votes in favor. just 8 abstentions. do you want to be part of ukraine or do you want to be part of russia? the answer is likely to be russia. because the majority of the population here in crimea, almost 60%, are ethnic russians. we're hearing vladimir putin, the russian president has been discussing that request to be part of russia with his security council. what happened was the crimean parliament voted to be part of russia. they put it to a referendum as well. all of this comes at a time when tensions are already high. against a back drop of that eu summit in brussels where they are discussing possible measures against moscow for its intervention in cry ya. as nick childs now reports. >>> in brussels, an emergency gathering of european leaders and the unity of concern over ukraine. with no sign of hea
