crocker won the money. but we know that the reason he won was because of the backbreaking labor of the thousands of workers who, day-by-day, mile-by-mile, had perfected their skills and sped up construction. the central pacific noted the names of eight irish workers who were there that day. but, unfortunately, no one recorded the names of the thousands of chinese workers' whose labor was essential to the success of this herculean effort. although their individual names have been forgotten, their singular contribution is unforgettable. so consider this: the people who literally reunited our nation following the civil war were the nation's outcasts, freed slaves, irish immigrants, exiled mormons and underpaid chinese workers, among others. as we celebrate the 150th anniversary of the driving of the golden spike, here are some lessons i hope that we take into account as we start another challenging legislative session. first, we can and we should do more to protect the nameless, the outcast and the vulnerable.

brian: i believe ryan crocker, i want your reaction to this.video clip] >> you have to understand the pakistani perspective. we walked out on them in the early 1990's after the soviets defeat in afghanistan. we slapped sanctions on them and headed home. the pakistanis are not going to forget that. we have to provide some assurances that this time we are not going home. this time we are going to stay with whatever forced composition makes sense because we have vital interests at stake. [end of video clip] capt. hoh: that is one of the myths. this idea that we left afghanistan when the soviets left. we didn't. we continued to fund various groups for over three years until the government and kabul fell. we had no interest in the peace process. that led directly to the civil war and that brought about the taliban. as i just heard this again recently, over the last couple of decades, the pakistani people have seen 70,000 people killed through terrorist acts. --eard that and it made me it really startled me. that amount of people would be the equival

the principal opponent still remains the taliban and ryan crocker and i had the opportunity a couple of times to talk to the taliban and that never really went anywhere at that particular moment. but the truth is all conflict ends with a peace agreement of some form or another and my sense is with the great diplomate and well known to the region, well known to all the participants as well, that he has gotten this started and i understand that the president has been very unhappy with this, as was expressed by his national security here in town this week, but that process started without the afghan government necessarily at the table will not be a process concluded without the afghan government being a full and complete participant in that process. so i can understand why he's unhappy at this point, but i fully expect that this administration and certainly as represented by the special envoy, ambassador khalilzad, i fully expect that at a particular moment the afghan government will become full and complete participants because in the end while the conversation has begun about the tali
