it's interesting to me, dr. perry bailed out the banks at $1.7 trillion and now urban centers across america who owe the banks, the banks have not done anything to sit down and say let us re-negotiate the terms, population is down, jobs are down, foreclosure is down but banks profits are up. >> to play devil's advocate, if i'm a nay sayer, i say the elected leadership failed. you had a chance and failed. why not bring in an emergency manager? >> my question is simply this to that, democracy worked for 100 years. the michigan governor, the state of michigan was in a deficit, is in deficit now. should the president come take over the state of michigan? should the united nations take over the united states? it's not how democracy works. it's a pole tax on detroit and others across the state of michigan. you know, how can we be in a state where almost 75% of the african-american elected officials won't have the ability to fulfill their position because they will be under emergency management. this is a national crisis. we

dr. steve perry, president of -- host of tv's save my son. it's good to have you here.nd the anger. i think most parents can understand the anger in that woman's voice. as we look at this breakdown of the schools to be closed, 12 elementary schools, three middle schools, eight high schools. help us understand why these school closures happened and what are the implications for the students and the parents involv involv involved? >> the schools are closing because they've failed to educate children. it could be a budget issue too, but ultimately these are some of the lowest performing schools in the city. therefore, these schools are not preparing children for the next level of life and need to be closed. >> when we look at -- nbc has this ongoing education nation, which is fantastic and "nightly news" did a great story on race-based education in certain areas. 23 states have set new academic targets that varies for students based on race. is there an effort to get continuing coverage with no child left behind? is there a middle ground, steve, where we look at this when

, but it is improving and we have other efforts going on, including track 2 efforts under former dr. perry, and former secretary of state schultz out of palo alto, where we have retired officers to improve collaboration and help set the conditions for longer term prosperity, peace in that region. >> and how will that work once isap pulls out with the afghan and pakistani forces? do you expect the collaboration to continue? and senator levin and i had the opportunity a year and a half ago, to see first hand the attempted collaboration at a time when it had really broken down and they were talking about the potential effectiveness of that. and obviously, that's going to be critical as we withdraw in terms of maintaining stability in the region. so what kinds of plans are in place to help address that once isap withdraws? >> that's a question question, because we identified that as part of our key transition a year ago. and since then, we no longer meet as nato isap, it is nato and the afghan security forces and we meet in these tri-laterals as you referenced them and we have to continue to m

dr. cox, well... ohh! needless to say, there were consequences. [squeaks] perry, great news.h, hells bells, bob-o. if you wanna fire me, just do it. i would, but even though this room was quite crowded when you sucker-punched me, apparently nobody saw it happen. [chuckles] uh, saw what happen, sir? [squeaking] so, dr. cox, can you, uh, look at her chart? newbie, did you not see what just happened? kelso is so far up my ass that i can taste brill cream in the back of my throat, and, you, you're-- you're a third-year now. wake up. this whole "dr. cox riding in to the rescue" part of the show is over. [pager beeping] no, you're on your own. j.d.: elliot's unlucky streak continued with the head of the radiology department. dr. moyer, uh, you told me my patient had colitis, and it turns out it was just traveler's diarrhea. so? that sounds like good news. yeah. he took it as bad news, maybe 'cause of the unnecessary colonoscope i shoved 3 feet up his pooper? what do you want me to do? uh, a-apologize to my patient and tell him it was your mistake, no big deal? think i'm gonna pass

dr. samuels is the first. there was a real gotcha moment, a perry mason moment if you will, yesterday in the courtroom when thistor admitted he was lied to on the ptsd stress test which he claims why jodi arias's memory is gone. he was lied to but still came to the conclusion. prosecutor caught that, said, wait a second. that is speculation. take a listen. >> you don't know that, do you? >> no, i don't. i'm speculating. >> right. made it up right now, speculating. >> no, clinical judgment, sir. >> overruled. >> clinical judgement. >> you just used the word speculating, didn't you? >> okay. i used the word. >> sure. speculating means it could be made up, right? >> yes. that is one possibility. could be made up. >> all right, thank you. >> reporter: a big gotcha moment right there as you can see, jenna. that of course will continue today if he is back on the stand. the defense had a chance to redirect or somehow rebuild his credibility. when he is done the jury will have a chance to ask questions of him as well. both attorneys will have chance to cross-exam inor redirect if necessary. it really comes down to this

dr. king to occupy wall street. we were proud of that segment then and still are today. take a lock. >> back with msnbc contributor and columnist, one of my favorite magazine "the nation," melissa harris-perry and bob herbert, author of "waking up from the american dream" and our special guest whose play "mountaintop" opened last week. want to play this clip from dr. king on "meet the press." it's awesome we have the nbc library and got to watch every appearance of dr. king on "meet is press." this is dr. king talking about the efficacy of non-violent direct actions and demonstrations. >> recent polls suggest that in terms of national reaction, demonstrations are now counterproductive. by continuing them, don't you run the risk of doing more harm than good? >> again, i contend that we are not doing more harm than good in demonstrations because i think demonstrations serve the purpose of bringing the issues out in the open. i have never felt that demonstrations could actually solve the problem. they call attention to the problem. they dramatize the existence of certain social ills that could very easily be ignored if you did not have demonstrations and i think the initial reaction to demonst
