georgia. we went to florida and stayed 10 or 12 days. we would just stop along the way in the towns and pass out brochures and looked up the radio stations. we started working and going toward antennas because they were radio stations. you would go in. this might be a music station where they play music. they would have no idea. i would say, "my husband is running for president and i would like you to interview me"" they would say, "president of what?" "president of the united states." "you have got to be kidding." i said, "no, i am not kidding." and they would have no idea what to ask me. before the first day was over, i had five or six questions, the things that i wanted people to know about jimmy. and i came home and said, "i can do it." what i learned is everybody is the same. they want good families, good places, good things for their families. they want a church. usually they wanted a place to worship. they want to make a living and have a good life. i mean, everybody wants the same thing. regions have different other things. but j

the senator from new jersey, the senator from louisiana, the senator from georgia, the senator from florida, myself, many others have come up with a proposal that says we know flood insurance is broken, but we don't want it to be broken on the backs of average homeowners. we have a plan that will delay these increases until 2017 while fema studies affordability and while congress reexamines this issue. there was an affordability study in biggert-waters. somehow fema ignored it. and we're not letting that happen. and so that's why we have to act here. there are three types of people who are in danger. the first are those who know or are about to know they're going to be hit. they have flood insurance already, and their costs are going to go way up. the vast majority, middle class people. the second are those who will be told your insurance won't go up, but when you sell your home it's going to go way up. and any bureaucrat who tells us that doesn't affect the average person, it affects the value of their home immediately. but it also says they can't sell their home. if my area if flood insur

georgia, virginia. you can see the arc beginning to form. >> florida. look at florida. >> florida.to be concerned about. well, this one is a little bit -- and it really pains me to have to say this, because there was a decision made in the district court of maryland by judge kathryn blank that ruled that the state of maryland had not met its burden in demonstrating there are no ongoing segregative effects to the state's hbcus. what that was about was how majority white institutions now are duplicating programs, mba programs, education programs at our historically black universities and trying to draw students away from those and to the majority institutions. it speaks to how we still view and treat our hbcus in this country. >> i'm going to pick up on the southern note and say the work the moral monday protesters did to push back against the republicans and the legislature in the governorship and these folks really went out there and were willing to get arrested and lift their voices against all odds to try to push for change. i think they're quite heroic and a model for what we ne

tornado concerns across parts of florida tonight and very severe weather likely also across parts of the carolinas and eastern georgia. snow is tapering off across the ohio valley. the secondary feature of the storm is going to be a bit of a coastal storm that develops here off the delmarva peninsula. that becomes the important feature here. it gains more strength. kind of what we talked about a nor'easter. but the track of these things always makes a very big difference. i think this track will be too close to the coast and that is going to keep things warmer. eventually warm things up along the coast and that will keep snowfall totals down across the coast. but they will be very high across inner areas. future radar, you'll see that snow and rain. by around 11, 12:00 o'clock tonight, we cross over to rain in new york city. you see this big area of pink could be a little icing in northwestern jersey, parts of eastern pennsylvania. then overnight, warm air makes its way through areas of boston. we'll see that cross over into rain. we've got some areas that will see over a foot of snow in interior sections. coastal ar
