[chuckling] i do not recall that. of course not. well, it was pretty graphic. too graphic for the kids. so i'm going to have to block you. you know, i gotta make this up to you. this is vinnie's watch, and i want you to have it. you deserve it. no, thank you. at's really not necessary. no, no, come here... >>> he or she is the most important person in the world when it comes to your money. i'm talking about the chairman of the federal reserve. ben bernanke's second term wraps up the end of january. so who will obama pick out to replace him. we talk about the big name battle. >> reporter: it is the guessing game in washington this summer. will it be janet yellin or larry summers to fill

bernanke is thinking about this too oh i think ben bernanke he's got his you know i went to princeton undergrad and then was a professor of economics at princeton so i mean he is a very smart guy i think that he is watching very closely at this market and that the jobs report and you know the reality is that this last jobs number while the rate went down you had a participation rate that has not been as high as the store people literally dropped out of looking for a job right and then in addition to that and let me add this is that fifty percent of those jobs were jobs that were created for twenty dollars an hour or less so in the in the temporary restaurant arena as you know is one of their jobs i'm just saying that. we want to see more of a healthy creation in the jobs market before i think ben pulls you know the like a you said the punch bowl from the party otherwise you could see a very big down tick in the markets right unfortunately those jobs are just not very high quality and while the fed doesn't look at split g.d.p. as part of its overall metrics it does certainly monitor it

bernanke is all eyes are on ben and so as he you know decides maybe to take that punch bowl from the party you can see huge volatility in the dow jones and s. and p. and averages certainly and we're going to talk more about that punchbowl you know coming up and i'm going to continue my conversation with kyle harrington but then after that i'm going to get back into it with tom hartman to the big picture now the last time we duelled we ran out of time and we're talking about glass steagall in the fed so we will simply pick up where we left off. the main competitor girl on the market is mother nature. make us to murders struggle with goods. fight for each drop from an old dirty supply. let people think i are prices pure or want to. live on our teeth. they use it up there and wash their hands. and flush their toilets when the same water. nestle's is selling and spraying water. we speak your language will not advance the. program since documentaries and spanish matters to you. a little turn to angles the story. the spanish find out more visit. with economic up and downs in the final. nig

what was the toughest trick for ben bernanke?st: think the toughest stretch for him was in the fall of 2008 when the crisis intensified. you have the collapse of lehman brothers. you have any idea seeking the -- youilout review have had aig seeking the huge bailout. there were concerns about what it would entail and how much trouble it would create for the larger economy. i think it is safe to say the fall of 2008 was probably his toughest point. by early 2009, the unemployment rate was peaking. some signsen he saw so som of stabilization. that is when he was talking about green shoots in the economy, which may have been premature. host: let's get one more view. arlington, john, what is your question or comment? do you think she was right when she was on the hill and have larry summers and greenspan sitting next to her perpetrating their crime that transpired that we're all talking about this morning? host: who is brooks leborn? guest: she was the head of the trading commission in the 1990's. she wanted to regulate certain types

bernanke is all eyes are on ben and so as he you know decides maybe to take that punch bowl from the party you can see huge volatility in the dow jones and s. and p. and averages certainly and we're going to talk more about that punchbowl you know coming up and i'm going to continue my conversation with kyle harrington but then after that i'm going to get back into it with tom hartman of the big picture now the last time we do we ran out of time and we're talking about glass steagall in the fed so we will simply pick up where we left off. i would rather as questions for people in positions of power instead of speak on their behalf and that's why you can find my show larry king now right here on our question more. years old the broken presidential promises the congressional the never ending war on terror forces and conspired together to keep this prison open. hunger strike to tear it all down as this hunger strike near six months she takes a closer look at the prison. was. looking pretty good in the. find it here if you're looking for relevant stories unique perspectives from tom my s

ben ferguson, let me start with you. what is the issue here?f the three alleged killers here were black, therefore it must be a race crime? >> we found from some of these tweets which was that he said he didn't like white people and he was planning on going out and killing people and that would be what many would say is a hate crime. if we have hate crime legislation then it should be used appropriately when someone goes out to kill someone of another race based on their race and at least for one of these young men, there was a motivation there through his own words, not through speculation, that he did not like anyone that was white, and we see this also happen with a lot of gang initiations in this country, where a lot of gang members who happen to be of one race will go out and purposely attack someone of another race -- >> hang on, hang on -- hang on, ben. you're missing one key ingredient, one of the three was white. so how does that work with your this is a one -- >> i just said -- i just said -- >> one of the gang -- >> at least one -- >
