. >> reporter: they welcomed ezra in 2008. after his first birthday, they noticed something was wrong. he was diagnosed with neuroblastoma, cancer of the nervous system, the most common cancer in infants and one with a high mortality rate. >> the first day he started chemo, i took a pregnancy test in the hospital because i couldn't stop feeling sick. i thought the diagnosis was making me sick but turned out i was pregnant. >> reporter: the stress of the illness complicated her pregnancy. she delivered twin boys nearly >> bryce passed away after a week. he was having such a hard time, none of his organs were fully functioning. and so he passed away after a week. charlie stayed in the hospital for seven months. >> ezra lived just after his second birthday, leaving them mourning the loss of two children. 2010 was an awful year. >> because we have this intimacy with tragedy now. so we understand, you know, kind of the hardest thing that can happen. this is one of the toughest things that can happen to a person. and it doesn't go a

ezra, let me start with you. i thought last night was fascinating because it ultimately was a kind of interleft debate about the legacy of the obama presidency. ultimately what does the obama presidency amount to? >> yeah. and it's been fascinating to watch what i think a lot of people expected would happen here is bernie sanders would come into the race if he gained traction, which obviously he has. he would push clinton to the left. and he hasn't actually done that. she's not swung very far left on any particular issues. what he's done is pushed her to be much more defensive of obama. her approach to blunting sanders' momentum is to run as a defender of obama's record. but one thing that i do think is worth saying is how this actually falls down on policy is a really different issue. take obamacare, which was central to their argument last night. hillary clinton does not in fact have a plan for going from obamacare to universal health care. she's not put forward a path that would actually build in really seriou

perry bacon, ezra klein, thank you for joining me. >> thank you. >> still to come, donald trump focuses his attacks on ted cruz but will cruz fall as easily as trump's previous targets? plus, four americans make their way home after their release from iranian prison. i'll talk with someone who knows firsthand how that feels. and later, as bernie sanders' poll numbers continue to rise, do democrats actually believe he's electable? those stories and more, ahead. >>> in iowa, which holds its caucuses just two weeks from today, donald trump and ted cruz are separated by just a single point in the polls. with both mendes pratt to win the state, their once cordial relationship has gotten extraordinarily vicious. >> he's a nasty guy. nobody likes him. nobody in congress likes him. nobody likes him anywhere once they get to know him. he's a very -- he's got an edge that's not good. you can't make deals with people like that and it's not a good thing. it's not a good thing for the country. very nasty guy. >> trump has spent the past few days raising questions about whether the canadian-born cruz

. >> dickerson: ezra, what do you make, what are you looking for out of iowa? >> i am actually watching rubio, we know it is going to be trump or cruz running through what people are calling the conservative lane, i think we are hot exactly sure what is going to happen with the more establishment republicans, i think for a long time the conventional wisdom has been some point rubio will break out of the pack so now there is this feeling he is surge ago little by at the end in iowa, as i said before, maybe gets to 17, 18 percent, if you get a very strong third in iowa and goes into new hampshire you could begin to see the establishment coalesce around here, a big amount of money to his campaign and republicans who are afraid of cruz or trump go to him if not you will have the same dynamic you have had for some christie, bush and kasich and potentially a couple of others all fighting for same lane in the primary and no real ability for the establishment to unite. >> but rubio's problem is that donald trump actually has the most support among moderate and mainstre

. >>> ezra, of course, good to see you. >> welcome to our park. >> i'm glad i haven't eaten yet. >> this place is one of the last remaining parks in the vicinity. since 2013, people have been gathering here in what we call forums to talk about their ideas for -- how can i say -- >> debates, chats. different people gathering here at night after work and then talking, trying to find solutions, right? we didn't have any other place to go. so we came here. >> why is it so important? >> i think it's not just for us, for future residents of istanbul. >> this space turns into a space of politics, a space of hope against the system which seems to be like impossible to break, actually. >> is it impossible to break? >> no. not now. >> it was impossible a few weeks ago. >> a few weeks ago it was impossible. you are feeling optimistic. >> the hope is the revolution. if you lose your hope then there is nothing to do. i think the tide is turning. but for the -- if you compare -- and -- park, in the arab spring, they are protesting against the dictatorship. but in turkey i think you can say the

and back with us, ezra klein and david frum.s to be what your new book is about, that section of sarah palin's speech. and that poll showing this isn't what's working for republicans. we have david brooks in "the new york times" today and his column saying he rarely has a party so passively accepted its own self-destruction. he said nominating either ted cruz or donald trump would lead to a party decimating general election, just to wipe out the republicans. e.j., how did it come to this? you now have 30 seconds. >> okay. somebody tweeted tonight that i have arranged pay lip's endorsement of trump as a brilliant marketing ploy from the launch of new book. i want to categorically deny that. the republican party since goldwater has shed all of the elements of who might have seen who stood up against this tide towards trump and cruz. there used to be a lot of liberal republicans, if you remember. now most of the moderates have left the republican primary electorate. it was a very long process. now when the so-called establishment t

you got progressive experts like from paul krugman to ezra klein. klein said it wasn't a plan, it was, quote, puppies and rainbows. it's a humongous heavy lift to propose a single payer program like the one that sanders proposed which would require something like $15 trillion of new tax revenue to pay for it. if you're going to pros something as large as that, which exceeds the entire revenue that would be collected by the entire federal income tax combined, it is -- the onus is on you the proposer to have the details worked out. his plan has not worked out. >> no, the plans are worked out. i think if professor friedman as of umass amherst looked at this plan and he would, in fact, say $6 trillion over ten years in this country, it would cut back on people's that are paying now astronomical amounts to have insurance. that includes companies that are paying astronomical amounts to insure their people. it would cut that cost back. it would allow people to not only have jobs but to actually get raises in their jobs because they wouldn't have to worry a

ezra klein now does vox. he tries to bring together these two roles. ultimately you can try to give the context -- you still have 800 words, but it's a little more. i say with the hill, it's a longer process area this is great. of events,he kinds combined with nurturing relationships, we are in a pe where the sense of gridlock is immense here. it's amazing how many staffers are throwing up their hands in both parties where they cannot deal with these issues that are on the web stream every day. i think part of the conversation has to be developed, relationships have to be developed, these discussions have to be ongoing, even in 15-minute stints. i do think over time they can have an effect. and finally in the classroom, we were talking earlier at lunch, you are training the next generation -- there's an alternative to offer them that economics. just briefly,on: something we mentioned at lunch together as well, with the new standards of teaching to a test, students are getting this history to understand the complexity. i was not being facetious. we emph

sanders made the other night and put out a new plan, you even have progressives like paul krugman and ezra klein talking about this. it is a contentious debate. we are moving to universal care through obamacare. to co back and start over is not a recipe for success and improvement. it's a recipe for more gridlock. >> i want to play part of what bernie sanders said about hillary clinton in questioning her judgment on foreign policy and comparing her to dick che y cheney. >> i think on the crucial foreign policy issue of our time, it turns out the secretary clinton with all her experience was wrong and i was right. it's very important. dick cheney had a lot of experience. a whole lot of people have experience but do not necessarily have the right judgment. >> you've got a new ad out now touting her experience. but doesn't bernie sanders under cut that with her experience on the iraq war and foreign policy decisions? >> the problem for bernie sanders on the fundamental issue we have now, building a global coalition to combat isis, his recipe is not a recipe for building a coalition. it's a re

there's a quote from ezra pound, genius is the capacity to see 10 things where the ordinary man seesar the opening idea but you have heard 20 things in an idea we never could have imagined. mark twain, "there never was yet an uninteresting life. inside the dullest exterior there is a drama, a comedy and a tragedy." and mozart heard the drama, comedy, and tragedy in all of us and turned it into music. >> brown: all right, happy birthday, mozart. rob kapilow, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> woodruff: and finally, the story of a young dancer from pennsylvania striving to find his place among his peers while battling sports stereotypes and his own anxieties. this is the second in our series from student reporting labs called outside the box, profiles of high school and middle school students bravely challenging today's gender stereotypes. >> i've danced for eight years. jazz, tap, and ballet as well as lyrical, modern, and contemporary. when i first started, i was afraid to tell people. some of them don't ever agree with it or accept it. >> i think boys are often stigmatized and enco

there was a piece ezra klein wrote the other day where he basically said one way to think about who stops him, charlie's point, is he wins until he doesn't and maybe he just stops winning. >> he may not be stopped. he may win the republican nomination. >> i think -- >> at this particular moment -- look, i've been wrong about everything i've said about trump since last march. every time i said he was done he got stronger. at this particular moment if you had to make a bet i'd bet on trump winning the nomination. >> you'd bet on trump. >> he's the only one that has multiple paths right now. ted cruz needs to win iowa. and the rest need to win something. rubio doesn't have a state he's locked up at the moment. but donald trump has options in a number of places. and when we've gone to some s.e.c. states down south, places like alabama, mississippi, he gets massive crowds down there. and as much as he's not coming out with his policy positions and yes, he isn't saying anything really and he does the same thing at every single rally. but there is something about the way that he projects himself

what you see ezra bush in a car trying to assert its influence, trying to communicate the two messages. percival to humiliate the united states and second, to tell the world that it is the revolution card which is in charge of iran's foreign policy. the fact that they were released faster than the british sailors who enjoyed iranian persian hospitality for 13 days, it's no cause for celebration in washington. if secretary kerry wants to build an ark of trial for himself in washington, find. but in reality -- >> it's interesting. as it is a great thing for the diplomatic channel that was open from the joint comprehensive plan of action, see a productive it is proven? >> revolutionary guard got what it desired. to assert itself as one institution making decisions. >> phillip, if you can get more detail how the revolution, i was reading an article by one of our colleagues that now lebanon, and i do want to talk to far a field but she was talking about the nigerian sheikh. i just want to get more detail on how the regime replicates different revolutionary structures around the world. let's
