bush. with a book called marching in place it was so good i. >> reporter: it at the time in 1982 he and his colleagues was a mutual friend was working for them it portended his demise but he would get a fair shake and that is under the the better presidents which is the case. this is a book that just had to be written the bushes, we only had one other father-son that held the office that there was 24 years between the presidency of those two men. and they lived at a time where in he was not a resource for design while his son was in the white house. he really didn't have much of a direct effect on his son as a run-up to the presidency but not during its daily thought each other one time and s john adams was toothless in the last 14 months of his life was a five day stagecoach ride away in massachusetts. but the bushes come along eightt years later he leaves the presidency in 1983 defeated by bill clinton and george w. bush comes along eight years later and one represents the end of one era

george bush, i know, put in a good word for me. second tragedy struck after i had been at the commerce for six months. the second tragedy that changed my life. delegatejerry ford's against ronald reagan was killed in an automobile accident. they needed a new delicate. i didn't know anything about delegate hunting. i found out about it. david: in 1976, gerald ford was president coming here never been elected, he was going to run for election, and his main opponent was ronald reagan. it came down to a very tight convention. your job was to get the delegates for president ford. how did it go? truly that was the last contested national convention of either major political party. in this country. down to the last ballot. it was very tight. chasing a very small pool of uncommitted delegates, reagan was very strong, he almost knocked off an incumbent president. but we were able to prevail. the full resources of the white house. i told -- i used to tell people that i've been to more state dinners and anyone in the world because as a delega

bush as you do for obama, right? so how much of a role does that kind of thing play in what you write? >> so, if you look at the definitive collection of great speeches and that is william safire's "lend me your ears." the introduction to the book is written as if it is a speech, and it is a great primer on how to write a speech. he divides up the great speeches of all time by occasion, and some of them are to caused her -- a call to be tributes to arms., some are a call to each one that you write, you have to figure out the audience, the venue, the occasion, the type of vocabulary you would use at say a funeral oration will be different then some for a pep rally. you have to make sure you have captured the person's voice and that it comes across as authentic. one of the things i do all the time is to take speeches -- and at the top it will say who the speaker is and what the occasion is and the date and place. i put my hand over it and read the speech and figure out if i can guess who is giving the speech. because i

i called president bush. minutes later we learned the second plane hit the world trade center and we knew it was a terrorist attack. and then just a procession over the day and the next several months of decisions for the president of the united states. the united states had not been attacked on its own territory since the war of 1812. we had no structures or institutions for internal security for the country. it was flying without a compass. david: subsequently president bush decided to invade iraq to topple saddam hussein. so in light of hindsight, had you known there were no weapons of mass destruction, would you have still gone forward? condoleezza: i say to people what you know today can affect what you do tomorrow, but not yesterday. we simply believed as all the intelligence agencies around the world did, that he had weapons of mass destruction and was reconstituting them quickly, and it was on that basis that we decided that you finally had to do what the international community had been threatening t

the other thing the bush library was able to find was, president bush, when he was a young father , had lost a daughter. i do not know if you're aware of -- his daughter robin died of leukemia. by the time he wrote this letter to his mother, he had the four boys and no daughter. mothere a letter to his about why he needed another daughter. why he needed a girl in the house. he included it in a collection of letters called all the best which came out probably 15 years ago. playwright named albert black who read "all the best" and was particularly struck by this letter to president bush's mother after the loss of robin. i have a letter from mr. black to president bush and i want to share a little bit of you and i will show you what president bush wrote. the letter says, mr. president, you write from the heart. if you are not gone into the public life and become president, i hope you would have become a writer. every word, every phrase, every nuance is from the heart. i've never read anything more perfect than more beautiful than your letter about robin. it is natural poetic genius. letter

that we spent a long time together in the bush. i said you my greetings wherever you are why be some of you are dead. so here. i gathered my courage and surrendered to the army. many civilians out here take care of us they returned me to my family who greeted me warmly. i know that my little brothers are now sitting next to the radio and listening to me. please come home that is all i have to say my name is balla. you know the kind of people left in the jungle do you see most of them are people who are highly educated if you do get it at a very low level very low level primary one two three four legs so the best thing was to use traditional music and introduce new music we made it in such a way that the fields where there. was to entertain said pace educate convinced that the comeback. we were tall. that people here will really killed by government forces that is what they were told so that they could continue fighting fighting for their part in rule really killed and yet these by were here only suffering there was a really good li

bush as you do for obama, right? so how much of a role does that kind of thing play in what you write? >> so, if you look at the definitive collection of great speeches is william safire's "lend me your ears." the introduction to the book is written as if it is a speech, and it is a great primer on how to write a speech. he divides up the great speeches of all time by occasion, and some of them are two bendable us and some are a call to arms. they are different categories to celebrate greatness. in each type of speech like that and you write for a president or for any other client, you have to figure out first of all the audience, the venue, the occasion the type of vocabulary any funeralsay oration will be different than a campaign prep rally. in all things you have to make sure you have captured the person's voice and that it comes across as authentic. one of the things i do all the time, a speechwriter's idea of a -- is takeis takes eac speeches. i put my hand over it and read the speech and figure out if i can gu

bush as a tribute. >> i came to understand after i left the white house mrs. bush and mrs. reagan were not terribly close. but i have to honestly tell you i had no sense of that while i work there. you have to know that nancy reagan she'd treat staff professionally and does not gossip. i had no idea the first idea i honestly had one the first plane trip i took with george hw trip -- bush on the plane he said right in the limo with me. he said what is the problem between nancy and my wife? i said what you talking about

sometimes i thought it would have been better if i had died in the bush. and after i escaped from the l r a i was in the rehabilitation center in. everyone else receive visits from their family. i waited for my family to come and get me but no one came the finally someone informed my mother and she came. she stayed a few day as and left and never came back. i ran away from the rehabilitation center and followed her to avalanche. she trying to get away from me. but i kept following her. finally yelled at me jennifer i'm going to tell you once and for all i have crossed your name off the list of my children. i will no longer my daughter . find someone else you can call mother and then she turned around and left. dominic on gwen was a commander of an l.r. a brigade he was abducted is a boy forced to take up a weapon and rose in the ranks nearly thirty years later in two thousand and fifteen he turned himself in to the ugandan army today he is standing trial at the international criminal court in the hague was the former child soldier a victim of the l r a's a

bush. he said, we did good things, didn't we?ll judge as i said to him, do you understand how extraordinary this is? he said, well, i never thought about it. i said, the president of the soviet union in his last act, calls the american president, and to seek his affirmation. that was a very big deal. but that is the way he was. david: another member of the bush family decides to run for president. you become the first woman to be national security adviser for him. and then 9/11 happens? rice: yes. david: where were you when it happened? desk.i was at my president bush was that the educational event in florida. just to show you our thinking at the time, i did not go with him that day, my assistant came in and said the plane had hit the world trade center. at first, we thought it was an accident and we called the president. a few minutes later, we heard it was a second plane and we knew it was a terrorist attack. just a procession over the next several months of just hard choice after hard choice for the president. the united state

we spent a long time together in the bush. i said you my greetings wherever you are well maybe some of you would date. i saw you your death was in line. i gathered my courage and surrendered to the army. many civilians are here take care of us they returned me to my family who greeted me warmly and i know that my little brothers and i are sitting next to the radio and listening to me. please come home that is all i have to say my name is okuda balla. you know the kind of people left in the jungle do you see most of them people that i need to get it if i do get it at a very low level very low level primary one two three four leg that's so debasing was to use traditional music and introduce the music we made it inside to be that if he knows where the. it was to entertain sense taste educate convinced that the comeback they were told that the people here will really killed by the government forces that is what they were told so that they could continue fighting fighting for their part in rule really killed and yet here only suffe

bush was very quiet for a long time. and now he wants to speak out but he spent about $7 trillion of our money, taxpayers' money and lots of our blood as been wasted in two wars in afghanistan and iraq and now he wants to quote winston churchill and that's fine. but i don't think he's the one o be speaking on this subject. it took two dogs and two helicopters to get osama bin laden. george bush put half a million boots on the ground in iraq. it took president obama two helicopters, 24 men, two dogs to get osama bin laden. so, basically, i don't think he's the one to really be hastising president trump. host: the wipeout of obama's legacy. decisions taken by the president alone are vulnerable to being erased by subsequent presidents and that is what's happening to he pact with iran. next up is -- we'll go to ann from westerville, ohio. good morning, ann, independent line. caller: good morning. good morning. -- [indiscernible] and i totally disagree and i think he should stay out of it. for 20 years, we've been in this hol

bush is an idealist about democracy.d trump, who in the people's white house, where every president has lived since john adams told bill o'reilly last year, o'reilly said putin is a killer, and donald trump replied, what makes you think that we americans are not killers, too? what makes you think we're so innocent? i never thought i'd live to see the day when i saw a president say such a thing. >> jon meacham, same question. >> i think president bush, whose father received the same award, actually, and it was an award from the atlantic council about diplomacy. it's funny to think back ten years or so when people would not have thought that possible, when the cool conventional wisdom was that bush had torn up our alliances and that sort of thing. we now see that perhaps it was far more complicated, more nuanced than we think. i was thinking today because of the mccain comment and because of the pulling out of the iran deal about an observation of president johnson's, who michael spent so much time listening to and transcr

bush bush is about to embark on a political career off his own muntadhar as id is running for iraq in palm into next week's election having returned to his country two months ago and is a decade on since former president bush touted the u.s. invasion of iraq to crowds in baghdad. when tata was a t.v. journalist at the time after his stunts he was arrested and convicted for assault on a foreign leader he was sentenced to three years in prison but released after nine months the idea then moved to lebanon and set up a humanitarian organization to help iraqi war victims for his stunted became a hero for many iraqis that coincidentally so did his shoe after separate separation from its own aid quickly became a symbol of protest for his release from jail the company making the show even renamed the model as by by bush and it was briefly honored with the bronze statue at an iraqi orphanage but we spoke to muntadhar al zaidi about the incident and his political ambitions. our coverage about what i think should what happened was this i was arrested along with my brother we were left in solitar

bush, two sides of the baby boom totally. george w. bush to barack obama. which i would have thought was the starkest move until we went from barack obama to donald trump.

bush. the vice president when he runs for office, he has a problem because he is seen as someone else's man. pence is trump's man. be trump'salways man. a lot of voters will say, this guy's not independent enough. host: this is what mike pence said about president trump. >> watches address to congress. what you saw a couple days ago is what i see everyday in the west wing, boundless optimism, energy, and an unshakable belief in the american people and the capacity of all of you to make america great again. trump's leadership is already making america great again. it is deeply humbling. this small town boy from across theborder to have opportunity to serve as vice president. i want to thank you. [applause] for the first time in a long time, i said earlier in this week, we have a president with broad shoulders and a big heart. guest: donald trump when he was campaigning made a deal with conservatives. saidrvatives basically we will support you, and we want you in the white house so you will s

bush and mrs. reagan were not terribly close.nd but i have to tell you i had no sense of it while i was working there. one thing you have to know about nancy reagan is she treats staff is professionally and she doesn't gossip in that regards. i had no ideas. first idea i honestly had was -- thead first plane trip i took wh george h.b. bush on the plane and getting off plane she said sheila ride in the limo with me i've done something already and get in the car and he said what's, what's with, you know, theai problem. what is the problem between nancy and my wife? and ebbs what are youha talking about? and he said, well they don't -- they don't get along, and i said -- well honestly -- i have -- i never saw it. i never knew it and subject never came up again. so -- mrs. bush called me and told me how thrilled that she was that i was working for her husband, and then she gave me the ligs of the set of instructions which -- i cherish and every time you go to a hotel you gather up shampoo and soaps and everything and put them in a ba

bush calling so i answered said how are you doing? the key to doing george h.b. bush is mr. rogers trying to be john wayne? and said how are you doing? so i'm fine mr. president he said i'm fine. he said i read your letter to jackson. i thought you know the old boy is losing it he's 92 in the hospital. he thinks i'm writing letters to dead people so i said mr. president, thank you it's great to hear from you you know actually it was a letter to trump about jackson. and he said yeah. jackson will pay more attention. [laughter] so he's fine. if you're worried you'll hear he's home you'll hear from him again. >> i'm sure so the question a lot people are asking now is -- if you look over the horizon to the post trump era. whether it's three years like seven years or whatever it is, how do we put this thing back together and because you write about how others have put it back together when it felt like it wasn't going to be put back together and running to ideological corners and calling each other names we've never because of politics how do you bring it back together after trum

bush frankly was not serving.at we know. >> let me ask you about perhaps what we might call unnecessary roughness in politics. this week dick cheney said if we elect, the american people elect kerry that we are basically going to face ourselves with the threat of a devastating attack. he is saying vote democrat you are going to get attacked. >> it is a terrible statement unless he gets away with it. but the other side doesn't seem to be hitting very hard. the republicans are hitting much harder than the democrats. it is a terrible statement unless -- you know, let's see how the other side handles it. already after two days i haven't seen much handling. >> it is a terrible attack because you are -- you are saying because it means that the other side just by its election would endanger the country. >> take a look at the whole proposalis. 9/11 happened during the bush administration. why doesn't somebody attack it? i'm not taking sides i'm just saying it is amazing. he made that statement two or three days ago and i

thanks to think president bush bush and laura bush to be here today. we heard from the -- the lunch with the women was just amaze, and daniel's story -- second to none, my fellow chicagoan. this and then we heard from dr. chan. i mean, it's just the compassion is off the charts. so keeping with that theme, i think that a good wall street panel and the compassion we have is exactly what we need do right now. wouldn't you agree, henry. >> it's not funny. >> anyway, i want to thank obviously president and mrs. bush very much for have us here today. we're going to talk about a couple of different things, and talk about the economy and it affects everything, i think, from top to bottom, what everybody else is speaking about here at the bush institute, but because the economy has an affect on everything. so no different than 501(c)(3)s and things of that nature. let's get started. let's talk about the global economy and let's -- how would you sum it up. i'll start with mr. chairman and then i can't call him mr. secretary so, i have to call hill hank, and the

dozens of well wishers greeting bush on the way to the family vacation home in kennebunkport cheering and waving american flags. the 41st president was hospitalized last month in houston for a blood infection, the day after his wife's barbara's funeral. as you remember, after that he said i want to go to maine this summer. brian: the cast of hamilton last week came and performed for him, the whole cast? how unbelievable is that?

and i covered the reagan white the 1984 campaign and i got to know all the bush people. one thing that struck me was really believe in

bush's first 100 days in office. he gave the new president high marks and contrasted bush's style in office with that of bush's predecessor, bill clinton. >> you know, mr. trump, it seems to me that we have a president here different than some of the guys running recently. he is not exactly a political junkie. he doesn't talk about politics like a senator. he is kind of an mba kind of guy. do you sense watching him. you're a wharton guy. he is a harvard business guy. do you have a sense he is running this more like a business, the white house now? >> i think he is running it very well. i think he has really stepped up and he's doing an awfully good job. he's had some little turmoil with china and other things that weren't expected, they weren't anticipated. but he really has stepped up to the plate, and i think he is becoming very presidential and doing a very good job. >> if you had to do a scouting report on a chief executive, how would you compare him -- put these two men side to side. the new president we'll watc

>> i want to put fort your eulogy at barbara bush funeral and you talked about public service as you would like to remember it. >> barbara and george bush, the country of the party, the common good above political gain, and service to others above the settling of scores. >> you know, that whole principle of again the better angels, national service, you know, above individuals, you know, ego. just very quickly, because we are out of time, what does that mean to you right now, their administration? >> i think that we have to look back in order to find a way forward. and right now the president is about settling scores. but we've had presidents who have been erratic, not quite this erratic, and i think we have to ultimately hope that through protest, and through resistance and these kinds of conversations, through the bearing of witness we shall get

bush he's now running for office those stories after this. but politicians do something to. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and should. somehow want to listen. to the right to be close it's like the four three in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the logs in the. first six. twenty minutes into the program welcome american military forces in the african nation of djibouti are coming under attack from blinding chinese lasers the pentagon is latest statements also came with an urgent notice of extreme caution for its military in africa. this activity trysts threat to our air. we have formally to march. and we've changed. it's a serious matter and so we're taking in various years now chinese military observers say that the beams could be used simply to scare birds off of the airfield or to disrupt the activities of spider owens they also point out that china is a signatory of the protocol on blinding laser weapons which outlaws the use of equipment that could cause permanent blindness this is china's onl
