there is one club, the billionaires boys club. of course like any little club they have fights over who gets to be president of the treehouse but it's still one club. don't forget. now, just because -- that doesn't mean there'll the same and in fact i want to give credit to the president and the secretary of state clinton because in april -- though if you are wondering by the way why they are angry and squawking and squealing and going berserk. i told you about the congo. remember he sees the money from the congo in the two in the cholera epidemic. now, he also has gone after detroit but here's the big one. he went after argentina. many of you saw in the post that sailing ship that was seized, the old pirate vessel. that is because the pirate who seized it is paul the vulture singer. one of those masts and i think the parrot on the deck is now owned by mitt romney's blind trust. bad is the romney operation. i can see that anywhere in any u.s. paper. there are a lot of pictures of the pirate ship that was seized by the argentine na

this is one billionaire speaking to another billionaire or two billionaires attacking mitt romney and conversation, but it clearly changed the race so that's one way where i think they had a huge effect. the other is if i were a democrat and i were looking forward i would say we were lucky this time. we dodged a bullet. we had barack obama. he's an incumbent president. he had no primary challenge. he started raising money in april of 2011. so he had a whole year before romney was really each beginning to think about the general election to raise and stockpile money. even so, he just spent the republicans to a draw because the republican super pacs raised and spent three times as much as the democratic super pac, the one that obama supported. and that's what the president urging democratic donors to support it and even with that the republican super pac outspent it three to one. so if you look forward, you don't have an incumbent president and you have a contested democratic primary and you have a divisive one with obama versus clinton in 2008. they'll be where romney was this year. th

writing there's a whole genre of this now billionaires writing open letters to president obama billionaires denouncing president obama because he's so mean to them you know he says and it's always about the things that president obama says right he's his rhetoric is so harsh you know he says he's too cruel when he calls them fat cats and dogs about their private jets and stuff like that but leave aside the fact that they're doing better than they've basically ever done in their entire lives and they just got bailed out in this sort of staggering way i mean it's a sort of colossal in gratitude but it's also a kind of i mean how would you put it it's a psychological thing it's self-delusion on a on a on a scale it's like it's like lose the sixteenth or something like this you know it's a kind of versailles kind of phenomenon and i think it was. it is basically is you know you look at that look at the phenomenon as a whole ok you've got these people who believe in this is this is from the party movement to the sort of mainstream of the republican party now that they are society's producers you

the deputy has radically and rapidly promoted the destruction of the american middle class but billionaires like the coax in the john birch society their father created they would much rather we all be afraid of the united nations it after all has very little power and occasionally even speaks out about the destruction of economies around the world by corporate power the latest paranoia being pushed by the coax john birch society and its brother in the republican party is a project of the united nations division for sustainable development called agenda twenty one which came out of the un's conference on sustainable development in rio de janeiro brazil this past june agenda twenty one calls for member nations to engage in a conversation about how to reduce poverty worldwide and in the process of making the world wealthier how to manage the development that comes along with that in an eco friendly way. as not something or oil barons like the coax would like to hear about it talks about things like sustainable energy corp responsibility in educating the world's children the billionaires are n

about things like sustainable energy corp responsibility in educating the world's children the billionaires are not happy so right wingers in america have reinvented agenda twenty one as something completely different it's now a mind control plot that's being run by that black guy in the white house mr b. hussein obama seriously this is what they're saying to republican controlled states legislatures have already passed resolutions condemning the un's agenda twenty one and last week the speaker of the georgia house of representatives chip rogers broad field seriously into the georgia house to explain via a powerpoint presentation how this mind control will destroy america says he told the assembled republicans and told me today on the radio that obama's mind control techniques called the delphi technique was developed by the rand corporation during the cold war and obama and the un are using it on us not only that seriously said this is comparable to joe stalin's five year plans and mounts it sounds great leap forward neither of those in retrospect worked out all that well but on the other

she says millionaires and billionaires. no, it is the ordinary businesses that would have had to pay that $6 billion to keep student interest rates low. we did it together. we found the money. it is my leadership working with both sides to get that done. >> i will remind the audience, it only takes time away from your candidates when you applaud. please do not. let's stay with education. communities are stretching and struggling to pay for local schools. many costs are based on a federal mandates and requirements. what should the role of the federal government be in local education? >> i work very hard to provide the tools and resources to our community to get funding for new schools and i am proud of that. very supportive of the new issues that are been initiated. we are doing a lot and i never voted for a mandate. it is one of the things that is killing communities like springfield and everybody in western massachusetts and throughout our great state. it is the high cost of education that is driving the train. just go bac

along with the billionaire industrials, the koch brothers, we'll never forget them. and they'll probably be back again. they outspent the democrats 3-1 and had the opportunity to define the election on their terms. the american cross roads super pac spent $300 million on advertising in swing states. they did not influence a single election outcome. and of course, this was it's exactly what he wanted to destroy, labor unions, and he failed. we will go back, i believe this, that we will go back, you know, coming up in 2014 and 2016, and beyond, and we will point to this election. we now have the template, the first presidential election of citizens united in this new era of raising money and it's fallen from the sky, and we will tell ourselves as liberals and progressives, we can defeat this. this is not a center-right country. this country wants to invest in its people. and i'm talking about teachers and the president of the united states wants to invest $4 billion in education. that'll make your head spin if you're a righty. wage earners have a president who advocate

it is owned by their campaign contributors and the millionaires and billionaires of this country. it doesn't surprise me. but the american people have been very, very clear on this issue. when you talk about deficit reduction, at every single poll that i have seen what this election is about is the american people are saying no. we're in the midst of a horrendous wall street-caused recession. we are not going to cut social security, which harry reid reminds us has nothing to do with the deficit. we're not going to cut medicare or medicaid. yes, at the time when wealthiest people are doing at the nominal well, we are going to ask the rich, we are going to ask corporate america one out of four corporations in this country paying nothing in taxes. we're losing over $100 billion a year because of the tax havens in the cayman islands that corporate and america and the wealthy take advantage of. yes we're going to do deficit reduction, but we will be damned, especially after this election if we balance the budget on the backs of the elderly, the children, the sick and the poor. i hope v

students what does it feel like to be a billionaire? after all it cost the same amount of money for you as it does for me. i interviewed eric schmidt when he was still the ceo of global. his office is no longer than the podium to the armchair. with the small office and it as a journalist real like to set up to people to get them to disclose their secrets. that you are still an engineer. anybody else on the floor need space to work. so here he is a small office anyone can use the office. he said one paying it is not allowed to have a driver. you could have a private jet you are not allowed to have a driver. so there is not really a gap but to turn to the russians there is a very revealing moment from the russian oil tycoon at this moment the richest man but he is in a bad mood. this is what he said to me about oligarchs. if the man is not the oligarchic something is not right with him. everyone has the same starting conditions. and he really meant it and was criticizing himself because he lost a couple hundred million dollars because he
