he picked donald rumsfeld as secretary of defense. he picked his friend from midland to be secretary of commerce. otherwise, cheney ran the search both for the cabinet and subcabinet officers. this is unusual. it is inconceivable that franklin roosevelt would have asked garner to pick the cabinet and subcabinet, that eisenhower would have asked nixon to do that, particularly after the scandal in the speech. think, a first in american history, where the president turned over the selection of most people to the vice president. brian: was that a comment on john garner or the ability of dick cheney, who knew a lot of people? jean edward: it is a comment on roosevelt and bush. roosevelt knew what he wanted. he knew the washington scene. he was the assistant secretary of war for eight years. he knew the politicians and the democratic party. john nance garner was on the ticket to balance it, not for what he was going to do. said, vice presidency is not worth a bucket of warm piss, which is right at that time. bush, on the other hand, does no

donald rumsfeld and dick cheney were important interviews.iven what you said about george herbert walker bush, why would dick cheney see you? it was set up for me. donald rumsfeld and i are classmates. we have known each other since 1950. we lived in the same dormitory freshman year. we have known each other since 1950. at princeton. we lived in the same dormitory and don was a very popular member of the class of 1954. brian: how often did you talk to him for the book? jean edward: maybe 20 times. brian: what did you learn from him? i have seen a lot of sources in your book. i felt he was always very frank and very honest. we have known each other for a very long time. there was no problem interviewing don. i know his wife. he knows my wife. we are friendly. what do you think -- brian: what do you think his role was in the iraq war? jean edward: i believed that he -- the military thought also that they were going in as liberators. they were going to get rid of saddam hussein. find any weapons of mass destruction and leave within 90 days. that

vice president rockefeller became convinced that the chiefs of staff, donald rumsfeld and dick cheney, were really out to get him, when the vice president residence, which opened in 1975 or 1976, vice president rockefeller had a series of parties to sort of introduce people to the vice president's residence, and supposedly everybody in town was invited to one of those parties except for the chief of staff, dick cheney. the other problem that the ford administration had was that vice president rockefeller wasn't there for the first four months of the ford administration. he was undergoing confirmation proceedings before the house and senate, and he wasn't able to participate in the ground floor of the planning of the early stages of the ford administration. to thetime he came in administration, relationships had already been formed. it was too late. but the change in the vice presidency really came with jimmy carter and walter mondale in 1977. this was the creation of what i call the white house vice presidency. himself carter thought -- thought of himself as a fiduciary for the americ

>> well, i think when your opponent is donald trump that is what donald rumsfeld used to call a known unknown. a normal campaign would certainly use this to push against an open door which is a 20-point advantage that donald trump has over hillary clinton on the question of trustworthiness and honesty which for voters is usually what they think of a candidates' judgment and this is the end of what has been the worst period during donald trump's campaign and our own poll out last week had him 20 points ahead of her on that very important metric, i think just to take a half step back, the most stunning thing to me when i watched this news conference is this counts as a good day in 2016 for the democratic party standard bearer and donald trump successfully muddying the waters and making it murky whether he did or did not plan to retweet something that may or may not have been aunt semitic counts as a strategic win over there. when you look at the numbers, 61% of americans are alarmed by this election cycle. it's no wonder. today will do nothing to make them feel better about their choice

people like alan greenson and william seem mob and donald rumsfeld and dick cheny and they believed that the oil crisis was going to bring the united states down because it was making us vulnerable on the international stage. oil shortages were a problem for our country because we used so much in the aggregate but proportinally even bigger problem for europe and japan who were even more dependent on oil imports so they were incredibly worried for policymakers that in their sort of need to secure their own access to oil, at that time our allies would break off from us. >> we're going to make a quick trupp through the ford administration. >> i'm ready. -- >> a massive expansion giving the democratic liberals others chance to extend the federal government's reach. say a few words about that. >> the concern when nixon resigned from the right, they were unhappy.watergate, but they -- but someone like milton freed moan, they were more upset about -- >> chicago in economist. >> -- the policy legacy that nixon leaves behind, environmental measures to the economic controls, to the complete contro

and this really infuriated the defense secretary donald rumsfeld because what he saw was a military that -- saw an enemy not in wars where the united states was authorized to fight. so the question was how could the military, how could he, the secretary of defense, run awar in places where the united states was not at war? the cia had the authorities to operate in these places but the military didn't. what he really pushed for in the years he was secretary of defense was to expand the pentagon authorities to operate clan destinnily to act more like the cia did with its own authorities to operate in deniable places and places where the united states did not have to acknowledge it was operating. he expanded dramatically the role of special operations forces, specifically joint special operations command, which is down at fort bragg, north carolina, the delta force at s.e.a.l. team 6, built to do hostage rescues, very short operations over 24 hours basically what he did was he created -- he built this organization to fight large secret wars in iraq, in afghanistan, across the border into pa

he endorsed a bill, supported it publicly and with his signature that was drafted by donald rumsfelded in an early stage in the form of a letter to president clinton that then laid the groundwork for the invasion of iraq. bernie sanders then supported the most merciless regime of economic sanction in modern history against the iraqi people in an attempt to starve them into overthrowing the government of saddam hussein. it did not affect his regime that it killed hundreds of thousands of iraqis. he rightly blasts hillary clinton for being a regime change man and she is. she is as hawkish as they come. he blasted her for her alliance with henry kissinger and she should be blasted for that but the fact is we are not democrats or republicans. we have an obligation to hold anyone in power or seeking power accountable. if you think bernie sanders seeks are clean, they're not.

ermotti, it is still very much the unknown unknowns to quote donald rumsfeld.pective, brexit is still very much an unknown for this bank. from the client side, the opportunities that it may present, presumably this is a bank with the cios and client advisors are looking at the demolition in sterling. it sounds as if we've moved up from the record low volumes in the first quarter where profits dropped 64%. maybe one can say there's a little bit of light relief in these numbers. let's break the business down a little bit. wealth management, 518 million swiss francs. that was a miss on the subdued client activity. there were strong net inflows in asia. wealth management, america -- by the way the 40 million swiss franc is a common vision of america and europe. for the pc banking, the swiss business, the best since 2008. that bolstered the numbers overall. i would say a sense of relief and subdued is probably something that could be welcome. it could have been a lot worse. back to you. anna: thank you very much. manus cranny speaking to sergio ermotti and giving us

worst, in my view, of what was going on in afghanistan and iraq and a lot of abuses and concerns, donald rumsfeld wrote a memo and he questioned whether we were creating conditions that were -- that we're creating more terrorists in the field than we were taking out and he began to look at and said are we in a vicious cycle where our own behavior is breeding counter reaction and assistance and it could be good for donald trump to read those moments because when you talk the way he does, it sends a shiver around the world, you talk to young people today both at home and others who happen to be muslims or any other complexion of american and they feel as if they may not belong to this country if they were to become president and that is when you need to begin worrying about security and whether your people are with you. the one thing that hillary clinton talked about is we need our muslim community here and abroad to be our allies and that is important and donald trump said they are our enemies. an that is a dangerous, dangerous statement to be making. >> let me make a quick point. isis does not se

large, how do they nod to those fears but differentiate, hillary clinton in particular, from donald rumsfeldhis ethics. >> i think it's very simple. donald trump talks about these things and then says nothing. he doesn't say anything about how to deal with this problems other than trust me i can take care of it. and the reality is that hillary clinton can present a clear platform in how to deal with the crises that we're confronting around the world. she has the experience. she has the understanding. she has knowledge of our world that we're dealing with and i think as a result she can show that while he does the talking, raises the fears, she is someone who can deal with those fears and find answers. >> but his line of argument is the world is not a safer place. you just picked off all that exists today, shabbat, isis, we see attacks from san bernardino to paris. it feels like a very unsteady, violent world to a lot of people , and president obama and hillary clinton have been at the helm. what do you see to those criticisms from trump that says, look if you want change, you have to take st
