why north carolina as the biggest bet? also, one of the things i noticed about the television ads, they mention equal pay, but also education and tax cuts for the wealthy. >> that's exactly right. well, we have been proud to support senator hagen from her first rate race to the united states senate, and we surely want to see her elected this go-around. so it is a huge priority of ours. we are also engaged significantly, and as the weeks go on, you will see more significantly in other races, ncluding in gagha, kentucky, and -- including georgia, kentucky, and new hampshire. we recognized quickly what our role through our independent arm was to really lay out the fferences between kay haguen and the house answer in north carolina. they have done some real damage to women's health care, and a whole set of issues that affect women and families. our job is to make sure women voters across the state of north carolina understand those differences and are aware of the choices that they have. >> let's talk about a few of the other

why north carolina as the biggest bet? they don't mention some other andes such as equal pay also education and tax cuts for the wealthy. >> that is exactly right. senator kayorted hagan. we want to see her reelected. this is a huge priority of ours. we are also engaged significantly and you will see than othericantly races in georgia and kentucky and new hampshire. senator hagan has been such a champion for women and families. we recognize quickly that what our role through independent -- independent expenditure lays out the differences between senator , he hasn and tom tillis done some real damage to education and women's health issuesd a whole host of that affect women and families in north carolina. our job is to make sure that women voters understand those differences and are aware of the choices that they have. let's talk about some of the other senate races. you have allison grimes in kentucky. tell us about that race and what she represents to your group. -- thrilledree bit allison took this on. she is rented again

elonzo in north carolina.ahead with your question or comment, sir. >> caller: yes, either one can answer, but i would like to know what is their opinion about the current gridlock as it relates to stokely carmichael and brown and those people who probably foresee what i termed as the ignorance our country is faced with now because the demographics are changing here in the united states. a lot of what seems to be what stokely and brown spoke against was those that were at the top and how for their own reasons they oppressed people and now we find that even the white power structure which is becoming increasingly decreased -- why find there is an awareness that is causing the kinds of gridlock we find in our government. and their philosophy which isn't being challenged is based on a lot of thinking of dread scott and the supreme court decision. >> host: you got a lot on the table. let start with peniel joseph and then congressman clyburn. >> guest: i think where we are at with the race relations in the country i

i run a nonprofit in north carolina mountains and i have faith -- at duke.i try to do as much as i can and stay in touch with the seven girls. >> host: very quickly shannon, jessica and alicia. where are they today and are all seven girls still in the cincinnati area? >> guest: alicia is the one who has left cincinnati and she got married to a servicemen, to a soldier in the army and they moved away from cincinnati. she has a child. she is married and has her first child and shannon and jessica are both again struggling to finish high school and were not quite able to finish. shannon did not finish high school. she became pregnant in high school and had a baby that died soon after birth. i think it was very premature and after that point began distancing herself from school and begin to kind of fallback and dropped out of high school and jessica dropped out as well but has gone back and done her ged and further college studies and as i think engaged to be married. so both girls are doing well in the context of their communities. i know they wouldn't be seen

it is extremely harsh in south carolina. and then the men are ordered to really pull back and be less destructive in north carolina because north carolina was perceived to have a lot of unionists. so i don't really want to come away from today thinking i'm a kind of apologyist for sherman's march or that i'm in any way trying to minimize the very real damage and devastation that the soldiers left in their wake. but what i am trying to say that the men were bound by rules and they knew they were bound by rules. sherman certainly believed that he was operating within the laws of war and the parameters of civilized behavior. he's also willing to push exactly up to those boundaries of those rules. framing people, stealing their supplies, burning their barn, burning their houses even was one thing for sherman. i do think this the kind of wholesale killing, sexual violence as happened in areas ridden by gorilla violence, like missouri for example, was really beyond the pale for sherman's men by and large. sherman biographer michae

the north carolina ratification convention. no one need be afraid that officers who commit oppression will pass with immunity. prosecutions of impeachments will seldom fail to agitate the passions of the whole community said hamilton in the federalist papers number 65. we divided the parties, more or less friendly to the accused. i do not mean political parties in that sense. the drawing of political lines goes to the motivation behind impeachment. but impeachment must proceed within the confines of the constitutional term high crime and misdemeanors. of the impeachment process, it was woodrow wilson who said that nothing short of the grossest offenses against the plain law of the land will suffice to give them speed and effectiveness. indignation so great as to overgrow party interest may secure a conviction. but nothing else can. common sense would be revolted if we engaged upon this process for petty reasons. congress has a lot to do. appropriations, tax reform, health insurance, campaign finance reform, housing, environment
