listen to what delaney said. >> we don't have someone who wakes up every morning and can cut across all bureaucracy and can grab any resource at any agency and bring it to bear to help find these hostages. >> what do you think? could that have made a difference? >> i could not agree more. you have a lot of agencies who have different roles, cia is interested in counter terrorism and drone strishgs the fbi trying to get hostages back and sometimes these conflict as we saw in the weinstein case. if somebody was in charge they might have said we have to be careful when we take drone strikes in this area of north waziristan waziristan where we almost certainly know warren is being held. we don't have that person. they should be appointed by the president and have the authority to make all the agencies play together in one direction. >> you've covered this for a long time. isn't the state department supposed to be the lead agency dealing with families of americans being held hostage overseas? >> yes, but the fbi is involved because when you have american citizens overseas it's their job to t
