ann compton joins us. a familiar face in that briefing room.e w. bush first learned about the attacks and air force one. the president at the time was reading to some school children and then annie card, told him about it. >> it was amazing what little we knew in that classroom. annie card walked in and whispered to the president and stepped back. what we did not know, but the president knew, is that he had already asked the intelligence community what could al qaeda do to americans on american soil? so andy card very carefully said, the second plane has hit the second tower. america is under attack. at that moment george bush got his answer from the intelligence community. this is what they could do. and i think he knew instantly, and you could tell it from the look on his face. >> everything changed at that moment. not just for the country but for president bush. >> look what changed that day. he got on air force one determined to go back to washington. he had only been president for less than eight months. that first year is so vulnerable fo

ann compton was in that classroom and also was on air force one as bush flew out of florida. terrible decisions he had to make while on that flight. >> that limited communications made worse when air force one felt it needed to go to a much higher altitude. and that even further destroyed his ability to talk to people on the ground and he wanted to go back and he was asked at one point by vice president cheney, who technically is not in the chain of command, should u.s. military jets shoot down any other plane civilian jetliner being suspected of being hijacked? the whole idea of you lose lives in the air, you don't lose them on the ground. >> those are the choices being contemplated. >> but what president enters office saying i might have to do this. it's unclear whether the president gave his thumbs up before cheney passed it on or whether it was after. the president agreed either way. that flight was already nose down into shanksville. >> george w. bush used his remarks at the site of one of the 9/11 attacks to call out violent homegrown extremists. >> and we have seen gro
