[ applause ] and susan, i'll turn it over to you. >> thank you, very much. good morning, everyone. it's delightful to be with you. and welcome to my panel of shrinking violets. we've been given a task this morning to talk about presidential mismaking and disruptions to the factual history that all of us in this room and whatever capacity we are in strive to tell. and we had a really lively organizing conference call and then some wonderful back and forth e-mails. and my job was to try to organize all of that for the next hour and a half. so what i've done -- so for this morning is to think about the tech age and how we always hear about disruptions. disrupters. and so what i've done is organize our discussion and their thoughts into six disrupters of presidential history. and we're going to spend the time on each one of those. they are popular culture, current even

inside the rotunda, coky, it's standing room only.anyone else in there. they leave the center of the rotunda completely open. >> on that pedestal that was build for abraham lincoln and until recently kept underneath the dome in a kind of creepy place in the united states capitol, now we have nancy pelosi, elliot engle. >> joe crawly. >> people of both parties there to say good-bye. that really shows you how mccain did cross that line. this is not a republican event. the minority leader of the senate, chuck schumer we saw. here they're sitting under pictures, by the way, of columbus coming to america and pochahntas saving james smith. the earliest pictures of people in america are over the family as they come in to have this ceremony, the last civic ceremony before the religious ceremony. >> i was noticing the entire mccain family walking in. i noticed someone sitting down. that of course is senator mccain's mother, 106 years old, roberta mccain who has lived such an incredible life. her husband a navy admiral. she travelled all over t

my question is for cokie. earl you you alluded to the fact that when you're interviewing someone you have the answer. you've done the research, you have an idea of what to expect. in all the interviews that you've done, have you ever had an experience where you asked the question and the answer that you received was quite different from what you expected? >> sure, all the time but you still need to know the topic, be able to -- it's kind of like saying to your old uncle "tell me the one about." and you'll get the best from somebody because you know that he tells a good story about the one about but often when you're on that train of questioning -- you don't know everything going in, you wouldn't learning anything, but you learn a tremendous amount, you're often surprised and sometimes unpleasantly so. >> you're up, sir, welcome. >> my name is paul st.lair, director of the george w. bush home in midland, texas. our goal is to talk about the bush family during their ten years in west texas and my question is for

so i wasn't really sure that that was a good idea, so i knew cokie roberts well so i called cokie up and i said, well, cokie what do you think about this, because i knew she would give me a fair assessment. she said i think you should do it, but you should let us do it because we can do it nationally and you will get -- reach more women that way. so they provided a camera to my husband and he filmed me every day, good and bad. then they put together a documentary and diane sawyer actually -- i went up and interviewed with diane sawyer and they were very good about the whole idea was you know your body as a woman, you need to not let somebody tell you something is not right -- if something is wrong you know it and you shouldn't take no for an answer. anyway, that was the message. it changed what i did here, it changed me as a person, of course, like everybody says it does because you start to look inter spect ifl. the first thing you think is i'm going to die, which isn't the case. so you start to look at life differently and it becomes more precious, each day, time, family, all of th

my question is for cokie.earlier, you alluded to the fact that, when you are interviewing someone, you have the answer. you have done the research. you have an idea of what to expect. in all the interviews that you have done, have you ever had an experience where you asked the question, and the answer that you received was quite different from what you expected? >> all the time. you still need to know the topic. be able to-it is kind of like saying, tell me the one about. and that, you will get the best from somebody. because you know that he tells a good story about the one about. but often, while you are on that train of questioning, you learn-you don't go in knowing everything. you wouldn't be interviewing him except to get his voice on tape. but you learn a tremendous amount listening to him, yes. you are often surprised, and sometimes unpleasantly so. >> welcome. >> my name is paul singular, director of the george w. bush childhood home in midland, texas. my primary goal is to talk about the bush family d

and he served the nation for decades. >> all right, cokie roberts.hank you for joining us this morning. >>> we want to turn now to our ron claiborne. ron, you covered john mccain's presidential campaign in 2008. you had tremendous access in the beginning, spoke with him on multiple occasions. what do you remember most about him? >> i joined him in actually late 2007 when he was so far behind, he really had nothing to lose. it was just a fun, rollicking ride with him. a lot of access, sitting with him on the bus and talking to him, not just about politics. about anything. he was a big sports fan. he told wonderful stories and a great, great joke teller. you saw one of the jokes there, the one about scum-sucking fish and lawyers and one of the ones i remember him very well telling again and again, and more for his amusement than the audience which was often bewildered by this joke. he would say, in the words of the late chairman mao, it is always darkest right before it's totally black. the audience were like wonder what that was about. he would be lau

chief political analyst matthew dowd who is in texas this morning and abc news political commentator cokie roberts who is in d.c. good morning to both of you. >> good morning, dan. >> when people call him a maverick, what do they mean? how did he earn this reputation? >> well, because he didn't always tow the party line. now, when he arrived in washington in 1982, during the reagan years, he was a very staunch partisan, but something happened along the way and that something or someone was mo udall, the fellow arizonan who was a liberal democrat and a lovely man, and he took mccain under his wing, and mccain always talked about it, how udall just brought him back to the state, included him in things he would say, you know, and john was part of this and mccain said i didn't know what he was talking about but he gave me credit for it and he learned that compromise made things happen. and he was much more willing as he served in congress to reach out to democrats, to sometimes thumb his nose quite publicly at his party while still being a very staunch partisan. >> including quite famously on
