i tend to agree with a lot of what fred says but with some provisos the i tend to judge the success of the party of the success of the governing system not so much on its ideology or how democratic or undemocratic it is but whether it delivers the goods to a great extent the putin system has delivered the goods when i used to walk to the office and. the yeltsin years i never saw a fewer than six or eight old ladies picking through the snow for bottles to remember money to eat you don't see them anymore this is becoming a very middle class country now it is inefficient there is major corruption there it could do a lot better and i think it is going to gradually evolve in that direction but this is russia it's not singapore you're not going to see sudden change you're not going to see. rapid acceleration so a gradual opening of the political system is important but i think this is going to happen in the regions i think it's going to basically and say it was pointed out that one of the problems with russia is nobody respects anybody else is certainly everybody have a different opinion and

when i want to go to the street my wife won't be afraid and maybe i'll take my daughter with fred what's your take on this i know you didn't go to today's protests but you've been to the past ones here what is it achieving what is it you know people getting used to protesting as demas pointed out here which is good for society but is it going to go anywhere well sure you know this has been a society that's been frozen for in some ways for for quite a while and the political system hasn't opened up it hasn't accepted the kind of social changes the expansion of society. and it only happens when people actually take action this is i mean crack open any history book can you see that this is actually how social changes is propelled forward people do something and this is a first step because it is it is absolutely true that you get a real mixed bag of people slogans from left to right. i wouldn't agree that they are just united on their and tip of the to vladimir putin i think that there is a broad range of grievances you might you might call the middle class grievances against the bureaucrat

fred knocked me out with that. that is very generous, i thank you very much. fred and i, when he was in the assembly of the california legislature, and we had a tough stretch in california and we worked very, very hard to sort things out. i won't go into any of the details but we worked it through and fred it's so nice to see you. and that you having undertaken that for 13 years, is a real service to all of us. it's a fabulous service. and this is a wonderful gathering. i thank you all for being here. as fred said, president obama, in order to greet you on behalf of him and the entire administration for this ocean week. it's great to see such a diverse community here from researchers to businesses, to congressional staff, to the local, regional and nonprofit groups. and i want to thank the national marine sanctuary foundation for putting together such a great week, as well as for their input into the national ocean policy. which will soon enter its implementation phase. and i think all of you know, we should all stay tuned for more on that in the months ahead.

i thank you all for being here. as fred said, president obama, it's an honor to greet you on behalf of him and the entire administration for this ocean week. it's great to see such a diverse community here from researchers to businesses to congressional staff, to the local regional and nonprofit groups, and i want to thank the national marine sanctuary foundation for putting together such a great week as well as for their input into the national ocean policy, which will soon enter its implementation phase and i think all of you know, we should all stay tuned for more on that in the months ahead. so obviously, this is a crucial moment for america's economy. you all know that as we emerge from the biggest recession since the great depression. our businesses have added over 4.3 million jobs. over the last 27 months. that's good news, but we still have much more work to do. touched on that. that's what i'm most engaged in, and today what i wanted to do is speak to how our oceans play a key role in that critically important econ

but, fred, i've got -- i have to tell you, fred, i don't know where in the world someone can go to collegeet weaving degree and make millions and manaillions of dols playing a sport. >> nothing to do with it. >> there's an assumption of the risk here. people know this is a violent, violent sport. they do in the have to play this sport. and assumption of the risk is going to be a huge defense for the nfl. >> all right. you say that the athlete elects to do this and that the nfl or the team really should have no, i guess, control nor should they in any way put up any protections of -- for that athlete to it's a safe sport? >> i'm not saying that. i'm saying that the team and the nfl should protect the athlete. >> that is what you're saying. >> but they should not defraud them. >> avery, might this be rather difficult for the nfl to respond to, especially in light of the recent suicide deaths of junior seau, dave duerson, ray easterling. won't this help establish a type of pattern? >> well, that's going to be part of the evidence. here's where i think the lawyers for all of the ballplayers, w

. >> let me tell you which mandates i like, fred. >> i like mandates. you heard governor rendell. e walk that back? >> he can't walk that back. he's in a very different position çhere. that's why i think mitt romney is doing this, is talking about health care so much only because the republican base insists that he do so. you know, up until this point, up until the ruling, mitt romney has run away from his massachusetts health care plan. he hasn't wanted to talk about it. he hasn't wanted to mention it. because it is so similar to the affordable care act. now he's stuck with it. he's trying to spin it in a way that makes it appear to be different, but it isn't. as governor rendell said, it's something he should have been proud of. the people of the state of massachusetts were happy with their health care. as americans will be when this goes fully into force. >> ed rendell, the governor, and cynthia tucker thank you for your time this evening. have a great weekend. >> you too. >> thanks, rev. >>> still ahead, we all remember the heated tea party rallies. now there are signs they're

but to fred's litany i would add two other things. you would have to have an opposing party controlling the senate. and you had to have a judge who was willing to follow the evidence and to be aggressive in not allowing his courtroom to be used to still further a cover up. so i watched john dean's testimony before i was appointed to the special prosecutor's office. i saw this young man only four years older than i. i was an assistant u.s. attorney in the southern district of new york at the time. and i saw him drone on and on in that john dean monotone. for hours and hours and i listened to the content. i absolutely could not believe that richard nixon the arch strategist whether or not i had other opinions about him, i think that he would be the type of person to allow a young man, inexperienced as john dean was to have as much authority as john dean seemed to have according to his testimony. >> and certainly not to have richard nixon incriminate himself in the ways that john dean had suggested in his testimony rather explicitly that

i did save money. thrilled about that, fred. >> do you have to notice that some coupons expire. t the hard way, too. >> yes, yes. i should also say this, this is important. when you see something like barbecue saubash sauce that sen ten bottles for $10. it's the unit price that matters. just buy one bottle for $1, but storeless do that, because they're hoping some people will buy the ten bottles. you don't actually have to buy the ten bottles. it's the unit price that's important. >> great tips. >> more tips on website, too. >> thanks. lisa, thanks for bringing it to us. i'm going to try it again, with your advice. i'll report to you. thank you so much, lisa. >>> hackers are getting smarter as cell phones get smarter. how to safeguard your information. >>> i'm sure you'll agree, these days your phone is like a mini computer. that why it's so important to protect it in identity theft, scams and viruses. marc saltzman is here via skype from toronto, tip on protecting your smartphone. what's the first line of defense? >> yeah. the first thing want to do something many of us don't do

the furor of the tapes as fred said i think began to change public opinion and public opinion then shifted dramatically once richard nixon fired archibald cox a special prosecutor who was promised to have the security of getting an investigation unless he engaged in misconduct. quite clearly there was no misconduct. he was following the evidence and yet he was fired in the saturday night massacre. one of the most dramatic perhaps the most dramatic episode in automatic of watergate when the president took the resignation of the attorney general el yoet richards and the deputy and finally it fell to robert bourke to do the deed of firing archibald cox. at that point you saw a tremendous shift in public opinion against richard nixon. now believing that the president of the united states was covering up something that he wasn't being honest with the american public that he wasn't going to play by the rules. and then finally the evidence on the tapes as we listened to the tapes for the first final and heard john dean provide in the cancer on the presidency speech that he gave to richard nixon,

and fred said it was more a defection. so i think of obama that way, too. really, the cultural thing that happened, an african-american was elected president of the united states, and that was the change. and i'd like to know your comments on this because you both have eloquently addressed the whole bipartisan gridlock, the whole chokehold on the system by the american parties, by the two-party system. so could you address further what like that cultural impact would be based on what we've seen from perot, jesse ventura and now barack obama. >> i appreciate your question. i think a couple things i would say about it is, one is i think one of the effects of that very dramatic event that took place, that cultural turning point or that historic turning point in the country, is that what you then saw subsequently was the extraordinary resistance of the existing institution. to be able to manifest that or to respond to that or to create a new political process off of that. in some ways, you have to say, well, the election of barack obama should have set off a hu

someone thought this should be done a long time ago i have to differ with fred. the congress. he got 55 votes in the senate. the republicans blocked him. the republicans blocked president bush from comprehensive immigration reform back in 2007. i don't see how you get away from saying congress failed in matter, i think most americans will agree this is a humane and rational act to take. >> it can be humane or rational, but as you said at the beginning of your response, statutory change. it's a change in the law. prosecutorial discretion is about the extreme individual cases, this is about a change in the criteria of the law. it's emptying of a law. manual if a republican had declared who tried to get abolition of the capital gains tax brought to congress and failed. imagine if the issue executive order saying the treasury will no longer collect capital gains taxes. anybody who refuses to pay capital gains taxes will not be pursued, looked at, sanctioned in any way. you will not be screaming that was the discretion of executive. that would cause hysteria among dem
