hit me just comment on dr. john. he served chair of the park system advisory board after i got on my knees and begged and told him i would like for him and his group to develop this report, which he did. but john was also a keynote speaker at a major conference i had in st. louis called discovery 2000. i keep john's remarks, because i like to quote from him. and john, similar to steven matthew, talk about leadership. he said in his speech that those places that commemorate or recognize preserve difficult or sad chapters in our history are not places which we are to allow ourselves to wallow in remorse, but rather to be moved to a high resolve to become better citizens. i mean, that's why we have these areas. that is the bottom line when all is said and done. what have these parks motivated us to do as american citizens. that's the bottom line. that's the only reason we have these parks. >> one thing i would add about the question, it's a really interesting question. for me, it's partly linked to the vice of the virtu

. >> rose: dr. john lapook in a conversation recorded thursday afternoon. we continue this evening at the look back at the ongoing presidential campaign, republican nominee donald trump had had a tough week. he drew wide spread criticism after engaging the public feud with the khan family, the muslim american father of a fallen soldier and his wife. the episode has increased tensions within the gop. donald trump refused to endorse paul ryan and senator john mccain in their primary bid. in a fox news poll hillary clinton has a 10 point advantage over donald trump. joining me is mark halperin from bloomberg. where is it. >> the reflection of what a bad place he has but had the corrosive effect on the morale of the republicans. we've all seen everyone in our business, have gotten calls and e-mails and texts from people over the lease year, republican establishments, people saying i cannot believe what's happening. can't believe this is happening. the quality and quantity of those in the last 48 hours has been extraordinary. republicans who are worried now that

this is part of his interview with dr. johnarquhar the former clinical director at the federal correctional institution in big spring texas, run by the , geo group. it was featured on reveal, a podcast from the center for investigative reporting. >> there are times when i was critical. i'm a critical person, starting with myself. " you wrote one point, i feel bad for his shabby care. cook i stand by that statement. i don't know who is it is about. i cannot, on any single record of any person, but there are times when the care was not what i wanted for any patient, period. amy: the former clinical director at the federal correction institution. seth freed wessler w,eigh in here. >> i talk to medical workers, doctors, physician assistants, nurses who work in this subsystem of federal prisons that will now begin to be shut down and across the board, they said they were pressed to cut cost. that particular doctor said his corporate bosses soon after he got his job as a medical director, had come to town to tell them to cut down on

dr. john torres joins me now. drvmt torres, first, this is outside the zone.ard about this zone and it's contained within that, but that's not the case. >> that's not the case right now. that's why we're serious about this and concerned about what's going on because what's happened is up until now, it's been on the atlantic side of florida. the miami area. well now jumped over to the golf side of florida. that's a huge distance there. mosquitos cannot travel that far. we know that that's happened because people have had zika virus and mosquitos locally have probably bit them and transmitted to somebody else which is thousand spreads. this is not a mosquito flying from one side of florida to the other, people with the infection bringing it there and mosquitos biting them and then spreading it. >> are you surprised it hasn't spread faster, given what a massive threat this is. even just one case in a different zone. it's not like it's in another state. >> to a certain extent i am, the big thing right now, it's a very small world and we're traveling a lot more. pe

our old colleague dr. john houseman came up with the idea of the global free trade agreement, global free trade association, which would be open to anybody who met certain criteria. and he has developed this idea again recently in a pamphlet called "the institute of economic affairs in london," where he suggests this could be done by an act of parliament and the u.k. aidliament, they have sid that anybody who have met these criteria would be eligible for completely free trade with the united kingdom. that would be a good way of kickstarting the idea of a global free trade association. so, i think there are many ways this can go. but as i say, i think nontariff barriers has to be the thing we look at the most. >> well, i agree with that. and i would also like to build on that. because there was one other model which was posited by the professor minford a few years ago. that was a universal free trade. the idea is that indeed, apparently, there is an idea of economics, called the importance of being unimportant.

so five sort of overlapping pathways, and i owe this to a book by dr. john -- i think that's how you pronounce his name -- at the university of chicago. his book is called loneliness. one is health behaviors but it turns out that people who are lonely are more likely to deal with their pain by inappropriate behaviors. defeat more fat. be more chocolate. people living alone drink twice as much alcohol per capita is people who don't. they are less likely to exercise, to take care of themselves, kind of the -- when they are exposed to stressors like an interaction with a neighbor, you are more likely to experience it as a negative event. they become like that little dog that needs that you. they did aggressive towards others because they are so lonely. it's so sad. it becomes a vicious cycle. but their ability to understand that good things are happening to them is diminished. sal were that you might smile at somebody and someone who is not only smiles back at si, the only person says, why are they smiling at me? what do they want from the? really scary. we are
