so every president, up to brock obama had to face racism issues. they were confronted with questions of what to do with all of the africans who, in some communities are 90% of the population. there was fear and loathed by the people who lived with them. woodrow wilson confronted with what to do about the lynching of black soldiers who were coming home and were wearing uniform and would walk around proud if they were white men. trying to be post-racial. he racial. he failed utterly in his response. we have this post racialism that is failing on the part of black america to get over slavery. the country could not get over slavery, it would not allow the blacks to get over it when blacks wanted nothing more than to be post- racial, they we had to go to's court, they had to risk firebombings of their churches, lynching and murders to be post-racial. i think the whole issue of it is asking the wrong people to do it. [applause]. to continue that thought, every president up until obama had to address the issue of racism so can one president be exempt from

brock obama, i have an action figure. whenever someone knocks it down, i stand it up. i love the president. so look, when he was elected, i don't think anyone expected that he would reverse 400 years of white supremacy. i do think, so i agree the old jim crow, the new jim crow. i think people people hope that he would make racial justice a significant part of his agenda and he has not. and because i have so much love and respect for him it's disappointing because if he applied his brilliant mind and his amazing political talent to racial justice as he has other issues like lgbt inequality, i think we could be further along than we are. we look at where we are now president obama took office the average was $18000. that was the average for a black family. for a white family it's $142,000. black family income has actually gone down during the time that president obama has been in office. white family wealth has gone up. if you look at places like ferguson in baltimore, it's something to think that the problem was bad apple. that's not really the problem. the problem is c

always agree on everything in their differences between the parties oftentimes at election time, brock obamawas clear outside that basic consensus that in my opinion and my study of history was fundamentally disagreed was not in accord with what i think is a bipartisan accord the u.s. role in the world, that i think has dominated our history and our policies, and our actions over that. of time. that is partly what stimulated our thinking about the book. if you look at the book and go through, i think you'll find we have document very carefully where we believe he has in fact, done things that aren't not the way would have been done by earlier presidents. he is outside the mainstream, if you will of presidential leadership and even raising questions about how big of a role the u.s. should play in the world. the policies over the course of the last six or seven years now are remarkable at odds with our history, what we believe as a nation, and with what will have to be able to do going forward if we are to get through very bad patch and get things back on the right course. >> in 1983, presiden

book, you write in here that the beginning of the end of the crash of 2016 occurred in 2009 when brock obamabecame president. guest: what we hoped would be the beginning of the end. the first stimulus, at the time we're losing 750,000 jobs a month. $800 million stimulus that we did here in the united states, one third of it was tax cuts which don't really stimulate the economy unless there at the very bottom of the economic ladder most of them weren't. the jumpstart is a out of the horror that we are experiencing them. they couldn't get a second one or larger one. i think it was robert or paul who said there is a $2 trillion hole in our economy and we passionate within $800 million patch. it wasn't enough. we patch. it wasn't enough. we also didn't change the fundamental. we didn't reinstate or bring up hold the banks accountable for what they did. we didn't change the derivative markets or make them more transparent, or even stop them altogether. at the time, in 2007 before the big crash, there is $900 trillion of derivatives out there. magical securities that are made up out of underlying
