bush. i sat down with the former president here at what was once referred to as the western white house during his time in office. we had a wide-ranging conversation from everything from wounded warriors to his brother's jeb, to become the third president bush, to whether vladimir putin changed. mr. bush even weighed in on the racial controversy in the nba. our nation's veterans, as i said, they are the reason we are here today. it was right here at this ranch in the texas wild that mr. bush grappled so often with some of the toughest decisions of his presidency, decisions that would put american service men and women in harm's way. in the name of national security. we can debate the merits of those wars and we have on this show. we will again but today is not a day for that. today is a day for honoring and understanding those whom this nation sent to fight those wars. reverend of his and the nation's debt, president bush invited to his ranch 16 veterans who suffered serious wounds while se

bush selects former u.s. ambassador l.l bremmer to be the top civilian in charge in iraq. >> ambassador goes with the full blessings of this administration and the full confidence of all of us in this administration that he can get the job done. >> at the top of the list for bremmer is oil. >> i had been told that we had to get the oil going because it was an oil-dominated economy. this was fairly straightforward. unless you can get the oil going, you can't get the economy going. >> what bremmer and his team find when they get into iraq is an infrastructure decimated by decades of war, sanctions and corruption. >> i was shocked when i got there about how undercapitalized it had been and how neglected it was. >> the oil fields were being held together, you know, kind of when i bailing wire and duct tape, in some cases, literally duct tape. >> the day after bremmer arrives in baghdad, the bush administration draws up secret policy guidelines, which are later declassified, stating that the coalition will move to privatize sta

bush is because of the failures of george bush. george h.w.alk. >> so jeb bush runs as the god brother, the good son. >> create a realistic separation. i get the idea of linking all three of the bushes and particularly jeb to his brother, jeb is his own man. he was a very successful governor of a very important state. he's done a good job redefining the party or trying to redefine the party for the 21st century whether it's common core, bringing a human face to the story of immigration in this country. despite the types of people who reject that. you're not being realistic. jeb bush will be his own person. >> it's one of my favorites -- >> you can't lock him up with iraq. when asked what type of president he would be -- >> i have told the story on this show before. it's an accident of history. jeb was the one who was groomed to be the heir. election night 1994, jeb loses the race he was supposed to win, george w. win it is one he was supposed to lose. we have to squeeze in a break. there was an interesting story involving the clintons overnigh

president bush's sister, nancy bush-alice is here today. here today. and nancy lack. er husband thomas black. you have made this a very special occasion for all of us. [applause] extend like to expand -- a special welcome to our current and former public officials who have joined us today. congresswoman donna edwards of maryland. somebody who needs no this libraryat since he is responsible for much of its success. my predecessor and for ms. u.s. senator -- former u.s. senator paul perl. olympiaer senator snowe. former governor johnson a new of new hampshire who was resident bush's white house chief of staff. you special personal thank to former transportation secretary andy card who served president bush and that role is white house chief of staff. i can tell you he was essential to the success of the september 11 victim compensation fund. he was my of these on at the white house. what andy did i cannot repay him, i will be at his debt forever. thank you very much. [applause] both of whom served into poetic posts in president bush's administration. thank you for being

bush's chief of staff. and i had been with benedict monks at school and i thought i knew about authority figures and then i went to work for a four-star admiral and boy are they strict. he said as the greek historian -- and he was looking for a constinent and he was going on and admiral murphy is now giving me the eye ball of death and i am going i didn't make up this word. it was like being in a lamaz class. i was saying push. push. you can do it. and finally it slipped out and admiral murphy came up and jabbed me in the chest with his fingers and said next time say plato. [laughter] >> so that was the dawn of the platonic era. bush rhetoric. but random house said no i don't know about calling it that. so there was a piece and i said let's call it wish i had said that. this was a piece i did for all things considered the npr show. i had been called for jury duty in washington, d.c. and this is a civic duty of every american, you know. but it isn't an experience i particularly recommend in washington, d.c.

the problem for jeb bush is not the general election, especially if it's bush versus clinton.ng attached to his brother which will be something he has to deal with. the real problem is getting out of the republican primary when you have all of these folks. the bush people, people around him, people somewhat close to him who are talking to me say that they believe there's an excellent chance in places like ohio and south carolina and northern florida and elsewhere that the right side of the party, the tea party people on the republican side who would say anybody but jeb are going to divide among themselves will not coalesce around a single candidate and end up nominating somebody just like jeb bush. they think he has a much better chance. >> once we get past the prit marys he would maybe prove to be a big advantage. i want to ask about the reporting ufl done in texas. you have a piece going up on msnbc.com. >> since last year battlegrounds texas has been working to register and mobilize texas voters but the long term goal of turning state blue. at the recent training academy at

the bush foundation is going forward trying to get it destigmatized. >> our hat's off to president bushr marc for keeping up on the road. >> dr. siegel, a part of this and something we should stress is the importance of exercise when have you this. >> for mark this is a great exercise. i hope he lost a few pounds. he looks good. make sure you don't injure yourself. sixty miles is a long period. i will tell you this has a symbolic look to it. this is not just about biking but also very similar to what goes on in the battle zone. this is a team that lost their limbs, their arms. they are not give up. they are resilient, going to get back up. when one of them falls in this bike ride, everyone is going to help this person to get back on. that's what it's all about, being in a battle zone. the message president bush is sending out there is you never give up. ptsd. these are people who put their life out there to protect us. this whole stigma has to go away. my advice is not only drop d but s. this should be posttraumatic injury without stress or disease that comes with it that. makes it easi

bush's -- george herbert walker bush's uncle.een dead for many, many years. now, he was the family's black sheep, there is no question about that. and so it was not in the bushs, it wasn't to their advantage to let this information out. i kept filing and filing and filing for it. he had died, he'd been dead for years, and they would not release it. >> host: so you've never gotten it? >> guest: well, i finally found state department employees who were able to fill in the fact that he died sad, blind, alcoholic and that george bush, who was head of the cia at the time, had the body flown back to connecticut. and i went to the family grave site, and you can learn a lot sometimes by going to a cemetery. it's interesting. prescott bush has this great headstone, and then there's a very humble one for his wife and others. and way down if the corner there's a very small headstone for james bush. but i never got the freedom of information. it's still pending. >> host: in "the family" you write: bearing the brunt of presidential wrath has

remember when barbara bush, she said do we really need another bush to run?a lot of people feel that way. looking at the field, he is the most qualified. jeb bush dances to the beat of his own drum. that's an awkward position for 43 to be in. do you think your brother should run? >> mother's day is coming up. he doesn't want to make it awkward. >> do you think the bush name helps him or hurts him? >> two things. there's a bush hangover. remember, hillary had to wait 16 years after the bim bow bug lamp left the office. democrats love big government. the democrats love obama. anybody who runs is going to be an bureaucrat. so instinctively you all hate everybody. that's my problem. i hate everybody. i hate myself. >> what do you think the bush? >> i play a bush power ball. i like it. i'm ready to put on some 45 stocks -- socks and rock them out for jeb bush. i don't think he owes anybody anything. i don't think he should be disqualified by virtue of his last night. we should care about who is the most qualified and who has the heart in the right place to do what

unfortunately for the bushes, hillary clinton is beating bush in his own home state according to latestoll. which shows florida voters would choose clinton over the former florida governor, 49 to 41% that is just one poll, we'll have a lot more polls before 2016, joining us, a team former member. >> radio talk show host, monica crawl icrowley and judy miller,e start with the dynasty, brad, this creates a awful conflict for you, there it is, how did you feel about dynastys whether they be clintons or bushes? >> i think the both families have served u.s. very well. but i think it is time for new leadership, i served two of the bushes. >> go brad. >> i think the world of jeb bush but i think that america deserves fresh, new faces, and jeb could still be a vital part of a run in 2016, helping the republican get elected, i have one, how about jeb bush as leader of the aren't party, coming -- republican party, powerful. >> how about jeb bush as education at secretary under a republican president, i agree with brad, and former first lady, barbara bush who said i think we've had enough bushes.

and if the -- if i won bush v. gore, there would have been a lot of people on the other side that said, that's not fair. >> i understand, but it wasn't just your russian friend who had questions about whether or not this country was operating in a fair way. and it's interesting to hear your description of that. >> what's important is not that be convinced that it's fair. what's important is that you be convinced this is the best way to decide disputes that it's better to decide them through our court system than to decide them on the streets. >> we will be right back. >>> we are back with david boies. what advise do you have for young lawyers coming up in the business? >> get lucky. you look back in a career such as i have had, and the opportunity to handle these cases is something that you could not have predicted and could not have controlled. a lawyer has to take advantage of the opportunities he is gi n given, and one thing i will say on my behalf is i work hard and i have taken advantage of these opportunities

they have strong ties to the bush family.ve served in some cases on two or three presidential campaigns for the whole family. chris christie was the rising star. they call him the next generation guy. he's now embattled. they have this choice now that is very hard for them. >> the question among those who are watching jeb bush and chris christie as potential nome in s nominees is at least in some corners who has the least amount of baggage. i keep going back to this quote. he says he's sticking by chris christie and by way of an explanation offered this. what a field day the media guys would have. ready for another bush. ready for another afghanistan. ready for another iraq. ready for another collapse of the banking system? that is a lot of baggage. why don't you tell us what you really think about the bush years. >> as a spouse of one of the other potential candidates bill clinton likes to say, there are no perfect candidates. jeb bush has a lot of falls. listed some things that could be a problem. i think nick's piece is ex

bush's chief of staff.i had been with benedict and months for four years in boarding school and thought i knew something about authority figures. then i went to work for of four-star navy admiral. boy, are they strict.

[laughter] he walks of looking for a continent. and admiral murphy giving me the call on pawlenty of i didn't make up this word. it was like being in the malls of half. push. c'mon. finally. at mom murphy came up and jabbed me in the chest with his finger. next time say plato. so that was the dawn of the platonic year. bush rhetoric. the random house said : no. so there was a piece. when school it wish i said that. this is a piece that had done for all things considered. i have been called for jury duty in d.c. this is a civic duty of every american, but not an experience that particularly recommend in d.c. there is surely no more prophetic site and 72 adults trying to squirm out of doing their civ

portraying the bushes as sort of a house divided on this issue of a possible jeb bush candidacy.e this, you write this about his mother barbara, quote, jeb bush seemed stunned by his mother's comments made over the past year. ones he's repeated at a recent george w. bush presidential library event where she declared there have been enough bushes for the country. so you've been doing some reporting on this. i know others have as well. what do the other members of the family say about this? gloria borger spoke with one of his brothers. made it clear he would like bush to run. jake tapper spoke with george w. bush, he said he's open to him run. what's going on? >> open to him run and wanting him to run are different. people would spoke with george w. bush walked away with the impression he is not exactly a one-man drafting committee. something george w. bush's spokesman denied, saying he is very much for his brother running and he's very proud of his record, has no concerns about that getting debated in another campaign. jeb bush's father, most importantly, his former president fath

poor jeb bush is saddled with the name bush. mike huckabee, people know. i think rubio and ryan are a softer version until you peel back the i don't know i don't know -- onion. the four clips you played they're part of the concentrated campaign. she's going to decide what's best for her and the country, but she's not going to be scared off. the last guy, that rush guy, he is demented. there's no question. with karl rove, there's a little bit of a question. but with rush, there is no question. >> they used to hide heez people in the east wing of the old house. now they're running around. thank you. coming up, yes, he wants to make hillary's health initiative, but he wants something more, he wants to when back the white house by convincing jeb bush the offshore batteries knew are severely badging pillory clinton so he can get in the fight. we'll see if that's true. also, the secretary of veterans affair eric shinseki says he's mad as hell for the long waits to see a doctor. and the efforts to cover it up. plus, which state has the least trusted state governm

your characterization of the bush sr. administration as the school of less and the late clinton administration as the school of more in broad term, that's something that's being popularly disputed with the downfall in crimea. there are all these articles apportioning the blame to the u.s. for everything that's happened in somalia, in haiti, in bosnia and kosovo including president putin. my question, my one and a half questions are basically do you think that the, all those strategy sessions about the hegemon problem, about the day the u.s. will no longer be the cock of the roost, is this the date, and what is your verdict as someone who has studied these things in depth about this discussion of the crimean crisis being brought upon us by the history of american maximallism in a sense? >> there's no doubt that american maximallism annoys a lot of people. [laughter] it has a very irritating component to it. which americans are often somewhat deaf to. but i am not so sure that that's been the real motive force for president

bush was dining. this oral argument from march 26 is an hour. >> we'll hear argument this morning in case 13115, wood v. moss. mr. gershengorn. >> mr. chief justice, and may it please the court -- the ninth circuit held that individual secret service agents could be held personally liable for their onthespot decision to reposition a group of about to demonstrators who were within weapon's range of president bush as he made an unscheduled as he made an unscheduled stop for dinner at an outdoor restaurant patio. >> may i ask a question? so were the pro-bush demonstrators. in fact, the pro-bush demonstrators were across the street pretty much at a diagonal to the president, and they were permitted to remain there the entire time. he they had a throwing distance of a bomb or a shooting distance as well. >> so, your honor, the pro-bush demonstrators were differently situated from the anti-bush demonstrators in several fundamental respects. with respect to the weapons range, there was a two-story building b

bush on and he says mr.ce president, last night i had howard phillips and richard viguerie on and they said you are not a conservative for the serious reasons, what do you say? and a chuckle and his answer, yes, i am a conservative but i am not a nut about it. he certainly wasn't. he was sworn in at noon, january 20, 1989, by sundown every reagannight that could be identified was fired. not in the coming days or weeks but in the first five hours by sundown, politically executed, you could have supported jewish bush in the 80 primary. if you supported reagan in the 1980 primary you were fired and persona non grata in the george h. w. bush administration so remember conservatives who you walk with, personnel is policy. >> center for public policy. what are your thoughts on how conservatives address the changing demographics of the united states? this is a demographically the same country as it was when reagan ran in '80, '84. look at the results of the 2012 presidential election allowing for the fact mitt romn

bush, not barack obama. george bush was the president when putin went into georgia. and very little was done about that. and so i believe stephanie's right. i'm sure newt will disagree with me, but i believe stephanie's right that this president has taken ainherited, two wars, and as stephanie said, one of the wars started as a result of false information and i believe purposeful deceit on the part of members of the administration. and he's bringing those wars to a close. and that's good. >> i understand this is a litany on the left. so you believe colin powell set out to mislead the american people? >> i'm disappointed that colin powell went to the united nations and said what he said because i believe -- i was a member of congress then, newt, and i sat in a lot of the briefings with cheney and rumsfeld and thompson and all those and never, never did they tell me or us, as a congress, that they had proof that saddam hussein was in any way involved in the attack on our country. >> so let me ask you this. we just saw a minute ago current news about what is potentially

bush was. is pro life and he is, you know, he's the one who talks with compassion about immigration, for example. that doesn't really help him much in south carolina and some of the other southern states, but he, you know, he has an ability to, i think reach people in ways that some of these others may not. he may surprise you. even though he may not be quite as well known as some of the other likely candidates in certain ways, but he has the ability to speak, he's very conversational. if you've heard him speak, you know this. i think he can appeal to a broad cross section of people, even in south carolina. i don't think you have to necessarily tote a gun, but you do have to be respectful of people and recognize that it's not -- you know, that the southerners and christians are not people to be sidelines. i would add to that, of course they're going to prefer someone like mike huckabee, but he's not running for president. >> how much do they want to beat hillary clinton? 16 years of what they d
