we look at the three smallest -- john bolton, bobby jindal, and george pataki. lmost too awkward to watch. we caught up with governor pataki afterward to get his reaction. george pataki: it's been a long conference. a lot of speakers. i'm used to it. >> you see a lot of guys here get huge followings. nothing for you. how do you feel? george pataki: it's what i expect. you start at the bottom, work your way up, and ultimately, you win. >> the media had a lot of questions for marco rubio, earning him the second-largest scrum of the day. >> my strategy is to elbow past people and help i can get in front of him. >> looks like we got a rare double scrum, marco rubio over here and donald trump over there. what do you do in this situation? >> with all due respect to mr. trump, i'm more interested at this point in mr. rubio. >> rubio is on the move, and she is stuck in the crust. suddenly, the scrum loosens up. watch sabrina's stellar hustle. sadly, to no avail. no one here got anything out of rubio. actually, griffin, role that tape back. you didn't see these two, staki

george pataki: no.ran as a conservative every time in new york and i was the only person ever elected on the conservative party line in the state of new york as governor. on social issues, i do believe we should leave those to the people and states and politicians should not be telling people how to live their lives. erik: you are not the conservative against some of the potential candidates for the republican nomination. george pataki: yeah, there are a lot of good candidates, ranging the spectrum. i do my best to have ideas that work with the people. how is that for a good answer? olivia: you are cap dancing but you have not really answer the question. a lot of republican presidential contenders say that social issues have to be on the federal campaign. you are pro-choice that is in opposition to everybody else. george pataki: take marriage. it has always been a state issue and i don't know why all of a sudden it is conservative islam politicians in washington telling every state and every elected off

why would george pataki for example, bother to sweat it out?ing up, what candidates win when they lose. >>> george pataki's entry in the 2016 race to the white house made one thing clear - if you can't take the heat stay out of the presidential politics. the former new york governor broke out in sweat under all the lights shining on him. and this was inside a town hall. it's not the ideal image for a man whom many don't know and have no reason to trust. perspiration will be the least of pataki's problems as he tries to raids all the money campaign. that is n stopping him and other long shots entering a crowded field. the question is why? the answer is that being a long shot presidential candidate can pay dividends, some are political, others are financial. mary snow has the story. >> if you are asking george who, you are not alone. the former new york governor doesn't rester in -- register in recent polls, entering on the heels of another long shot. rick santorum making another bid. the field of candidates and maybes is so crowded it's not cert

i mean, george pataki is pro-choice like a republican can be.aking late-term abortion a felony even if the woman needed it in order to survive. but compared to this field where you have scott walker today sign an abortion ban with no exemption for rape and incest, rick santorum, who thinks contraception is abortion and should also be wrong and jeb bush who intervened as goff november to force a disabled underage rape victim to carry her baby to term, these guys are a completely new breed of republican when it comes to choice. and george pataki actually can distinguish himself that way. i just can't imagine he would want to. the huge problem, they alienate women who ought to be their supporters with these hard line doctrinarian advances and can't get out of it. >> there's been a sorting process. democrats could never nominate anti-abortion candidate and the republicans could never nominate a choice candidate. >> in 2004 there was a little bit of talk about how the democrats should soften their portion on abortion. hillary clinton was part of that

>> no. >> who is george pataki. >> who is george pataki. >> who indeed is george pataki.d allison was also right. >> well done, you're on a roll. ready for your last question now. this is from tuesday's show. tuesday's show we reported that the country that already has a statue of their dictator wearing a fantastic cape and already has a statue of their dictator standing on a tower rotating so he always faces a sun. this country now has a statue of their dictator atop a giant marble mountain riding a horse while carrying a dove. which country? is it a, azerbaijan, turkmenistan, b, c uzbekistan or, d terrible-self esteem-istan? >> this one i'm not as sure of. it's definitely not d. it's between b and c. >> jump in. just go with your gut. >> b. >> trisha, do you have the answer for us? >> i think we really need to see that statue again. let's watch. >> turkmenistan got a new dictator statue that made all the ones before it look like hum els. the new one is 69 feet tall. it shows the dictator carrying a dove and riding a horse. it's in 24 carat gold leaf and perched on top o

mercy, george pataki pretty successful three-term governor of new york. they're barely being talked about on the political shows. is that a mistake by the media? >> no it's not. i think i have one conservative blogger and radio host waiting to come out and basically say, well george pataki said, i can beat hillary clinton, someone said can someone give george pataki a cold shower. there are so many candidates the limited resources on the media side and the media is being realistic. like really can these individuals pull it off? nowadays everyone seems to be running for president. >> but being realistic on the basis of o our early judgments, almost a year before the primary starts. and we try hard to find sound of commentators talking about particularly santorum and pataki it was hard to find. >> but we've talked about this on the show. it's an important topic, we're doing it. santorum not only did he win 11 states he won iowa. and he wasn't just someone who got iowa i think he appealed to voters who mitt romney could not get out to the polls. he couldn't

. >> the republican field glows larger with rick santorum and george pataki jumping in but are they be dismissed as also rans? >> it will not an good run for someone like rick san form around for a long-term who has come in nearly last. >> today rick santorum announced the rage of another losing santorum for president campaign. >> maybe news outlets are trying to win know the crowded field. >> and women's magazine swooning over the potential first female president and one editor donating to her campaign. are they in the tank for her? a look at the dennis hastert indictment? should the source report on past sex abuse based on unknown services. >> and "washington post" reporter accused of trumped up charges in iran. >> he is hanging it up after half a century a folksy anchor who remained friendly with the politicians he interviewed. a conversation with bob schieffer. i am howard kurtz and this is "media buzz." >> martin o'malley juneed into the race yesterday but the former democratic governor-general rated little excitement in the media and being overshadowed by vermont senator bernie s

who is george pataki. >> who is george pataki? who is george pataki?he man who announced that he's running for president. of the united states! luckily the nomination will not be decided by a game show. we started a few weeks ago with a list of 22 candidates and likely candidates for the republican nomination for president. since then, three of these folks have announced that they've decided not to run, so we can poof the three of them. poof! now we're down to 19. as of last night with rick santorum's big announcement, that means as of last night seven republicans officially announced they were running for president, with george pataki jumping in formally today that makes it eight republicans formally in the race. then there are the folks who haven't necessarily announced yet but they have said that they're going to announce at a specific time in the near future. right now that's lindsey graham due to announce on monday. that's rick perry due to announce a week from today. that's john kasich who we're told will make his decision by june 30th. and as of

one was former new york governor george pataki. this is 25 minutes. josh: good evening, and welcome to our kickoff of our conversation with the candidate series. i am josh mcelveen. we will be getting to know governor george for tacky and where he stands on the key issues. i will talk to the candidate about some of the questions and issues, and after the break, we will have our studio audience ask their questions in a town fall -- town hall format. first, the candidate's biography. former new york governor george pataki was born in new york, race on his parents' farm. he went to yale university and colombia law school. he first won elected office in 1981 as mayor of his hometown. he was later a state senator and served three terms as the 53rd governor of new york. pataki has been a longtime advocate of tax reform, welfare reform, and the protection of open space through the brownfield program, which he founded. as governor, he led new york through the september 11 attacks and their aftermath. he is married with four children and one grandson, and lives

financing will be there, what openings but it's not ruling it out. >> the fact that your governor george pataki is going to run, that would not deter you? >> that wouldn't deter me. george and i are good friends but if i decided to run i would run anyway. george will be an effective candidate. >> which way are you leaning? >> right now my heart says i want to run, but i have to listen to my mind. i'm sort of 50/50. how about this you will be the first to know. >> all right. that's good to know. thanks very much congressman. good luck to you. i appreciate. always good have you here on cnn. >> thank you. >> still ahead, the new threat from north korea. the country making a stunning new claim about arming missiles with nuclear warheads. how real is that threat and is the u.s. really within striking distance. stay with us. there's only one egg that just tastes better. with more vitamins. and less saturated fat. only eggland's best. better taste. better nutrition. better eggs. with xfinity from comcast you can manage your account anytime, anywhere on any device. just sign into my account to pay bill

but what if george pataki can convince some new york billionaire he knows to back his candidacy? what if? money changes everything in politics and today politics is all about money. we have what nicholas cristoff calls in his "new york times" column today a disgraceful money-based political system. in that system all it takes is one billionaire to one an irrelevant candidacy into at least briefly a real candidacy. four years ago, newt gingrich said everything that billionaire sheldon adelson wanted to hear so the gingrich candidacy was able to have its moment of surging in the polls before vendoring the nomination to mitt romney.but the gingrich candidacy would have flamed out much, much longer and would have always been irrelevant were it not for that one billionaire. if you're thinking a billionaire would have to be crazy to back george pataki i wish i could tell you that none of our billionaires are crazy. there are now eight officially republican candidates for president. there they are. joining us now is jeffrey sachs, professor of economics and director of the earth institu

first of all, george pataki. ataki was in new hampshire yesterday and take a listen to what he said. >> we're here in the birthplace of the republican party, abraham lincoln's party, who saved the union and who brought the promise of freedom to all americans. it is to preserve and protect that freedom that this morning i announce i'm a candidate for the republican nomination for president of the united states. >> so david, as you though pataki spent 12 years as governor of new york and that's america's third largest state. and he beat mario cuomo in a race at the beginning not a single person in new york state who believed other than george pataki that george pataki would win. does he have a chance to have an impact in this field? >> you know it's so hard to say that because he's been out of the picture for so long. it's not really clear what his profile is going to be in this race. i think the hardest thing in a field of -- you've got like a football team full of candidates there. and it's hard to -- hardest thin

about running for president and that seems to be true. >> that joke from former new york governor george pataki last month in new hampshire referencing past flirtations with a presidential run. >> i'm going to be involved in what capacity we'll see? in 2012 pataki made the choice to back mitt romney bau pataki says this time it's nor real. >> it's very different and i think it's different primarily because the world is a different place. i think here in the united states we're at greater risk than we have been at any time since september 11th being attacked here and so this had time is different, i'm serious about this and we'll see what happens, but if i had to bet i'd bet that i will be in this race. >> we always look at polls and it's way early, but if you look at every poll you're down at the 1% maybe lower than 1%. >> you're building me up here bret. >> how would you tell somebody this is why you should look at me? >> well first of all you have it to believe in yourself and i do. i've run a very complex government a difficult government i did it for 12 years and i think i did it very well

his name is george pataki. that's him. he also apparently sees no reason not to run for ready this year. we're talking about george pataki on television, because he's going to run. he's going to make his official announcement tomorrow that he's in the running for the republican nomination for president of the united states. that feeling in your chest is your heartstrings thrumming. and then there's the other big news today. more reaction to put another box on the list we get another i'm in declaration. the announcement happened today in butler county, pennsylvania. and it was made by rick santorum. rick santorum is now the seventh candidate to make it official. and lots more still to come apparently. it is traditional for candidates to announce in their home state. so rick santorum did that today. it's a little awkward, because the last time he ran he lost his incumbent senate seat by 18 points to bob casey. he beat rick santorum in 2006, when rick santorum was the incumbent senator, bob casey beat him by 18 points. true f

>> george pataki is officially throwing his hat into the presidential ring.e posted this picture to twitter as he prepared to talk to family and friends on what he called the eve of his big announcement. >> jon: eight years, that's the picture you tweet out? the picture most people would decide to delete or the police would post when looking for public health in identify ago perpetrator and don't have a better picture? petackia and santorum better get going because they're already losing ground to candidates who are mid seasoned mildly racist form. >> i have been doing business in china for decades, and i will tell you that, yeah, the chinese can take a test, but what they can't do is innovate. they're not terribly imaginative. (audience reacts) >> jon: i mean, sure, sure the chinese invented movable type and paper but only so they could take more standardized tests! (laughter) all right, carly fiorina, on the other hand ran a seriously innovative printer company into the ground. that was based on a stereotype. does anybody have anything racist that seems com

former new york governor george pataki jumps into the race for the white house.white house. >>> former new york governor george pataki joined the lift of governors running for president. he took issue with hillary clinton's claim that democrats are a party that speaks for the middle class. unless by middle class they charge $400,000 for half hour speech. that's their party's candidate. she speaks for the middle class. they are the party of privilege, we are the party of the middle class. >> reporter: pataki served three terms as governor of new york. and has been out of office since 2006. the new jersey officer called for the end of common core in the state. speaking at a community college, the potential candidate says the standards are not working for new jersey students. and says it's brought confusion and frustration to parents and classrooms. >> instead of solving problems in the classrooms it's creating moral problems in those classrooms and at home. when we are not getting the job done for the children or need to do something different. >> new jersey adopte

the average poll, one will include george pataki, one won't.ill include rick perry, one won't. rand paul is in all of them, you get down near that cut line, around the 10 spot, you do not have any consensus about who to include in these polls, these polls are going to be the basis of who to include in these debates, the differential we're talking about, between seventh place and 14th place is like two points. i mean, margin of error stuff we're talking about. >> and this is an incredibly hilarious, but also important decision, right? it's one thing when we had two ga distal ondebates and everyone got to call their own debate, people had them at their houses and you see who show up. some of them were on tv, some of them on the internet and some just in glenn beck's mind. in this case, they have limited the number, if you're not there, if you're not on the stage, especially if 10 other people are, you're de facto gone. >> we saw the power of these debates. newt gingrich is running at 10%. he had that debate moment with john king. he asked him abo

george pataki. until the following month when they can all get together for a debate on cnn. cnn released their criteria for a debate which the network will be hosting in september. cnn says they're going to divide their debate into two parts. one with the candidates polling in the top ten with tie breakers to make sure there are just ten people up there. and then there will be another heat with everybody else which is going to be the fun one, that's the candidates who have at least 1% in the polls. i don't actually know how many podiums yet. we get ten candidates is the headliners in the cnn planet the rest i think. i don't know if they do them as an opening act or the late show. i don't know, but everybody be kind to your bartender. joining us is steve kornacki. i had no idea how this was going to work out. was this the most likely scenario all along and i didn't see it coming? >> how cute were they going to be with the criteria a lot of people -- there's been some talk that republicans are sensitive to the idea of having a bunch of male republicans on the stage bashing hil

hey, we got george pataki here. don't you just want george pataki? we have lindsey graham again!david, can i put on my cynic hat for a moment? not a hat i wear often. >> i'm sure it looks great on you. >> but one wonders whether the campaign trail is all that -- we sort of tend to think of that is the morally sort of more sterling option right? because you're out there meeting everyday options. but truly, all of that has become one gigantic photo on as you're trailed by a rabid pack of campaign reporters. is there goodness to be found on the trail at this point? >> your listening tour as you listen to people before you say anything. a lot of this has become very stage managed. people in iowa and new hampshire demand that. they ask questions. they sit down. they feel they're being respected by the candidates and more power to them. but i don't think a lot of substance gets done. and if you're carly fiorina, what are you going to do go to dinah's in cedar rapids, or are you going to go to fox news cnn, and maybe even msnbc? >> yes. i mean certain green rooms would love to have carl

. >>> right now, george pataki is officially entering the race for president. the former governor of new york is just about to make the announcement in new hampshire, a crucial primary state. this is a live picture now of the event in exeter. he just walked up to the podium. the republican was governor from 1995 to 2006. he served three terms. his last beginning right after 9/11. pataki who is 69 has worked as an attorney since leaving public office. earlier this morning, he announced his bid in a video posted to his web site and on youtube. >> the question is no longer about what our government should do but what we should do about our government about our divided union, about our uncertain future. >>> in the video, pataki also says his leadership after september 11 helped unite the country. today's announcements don't exactly come as a surprise. the former governor has visited new hampshire several times recently. he has not done well in the polls. >>> and we are continuing to follow breaking news. 295 is closed between the naval research lab and south capita

maureen: former new york governor george pataki is now part of the field of potential republican candidates. >> i announced i am a candidate for the republican nomination for president of the united states. maureen: he announced his candidacy in new hampshire today after he released a youtube video in which he describes his background and his reasons for running. he served three terms as governor of heavily democratic new york but has been out of office since 2006. he envisions himself as a unifying figure in a divided nation. it is the eighth of public and to officially enter the race. -- republican to enter the race. martin o'malley is one step was or to a white house run. supporters launched a super back to raise money for his residential campaign. super packs can raise -- pacs can raise unlimited amounts of money. he is excited to announce his candidacy on saturday. another round of heavy rain is bringing problems to taxes. as people are being ordered to evacuate their homes near houston. this comes as new video shows powerful floodwaters crashing for homes earlier this week. right now,

rick santorum george pataki on the republican side and martin o'malley.ecause he is a democrat and it's a limited field, the newest democratic challenger. does it change anything? >> this is when we needed more republican candidates. i think the reality for these folks on the republican side if you look at rick santorum and george pataki and look at the threshold to get on the debate stage, they need those moments if they are going to have a shot in the dark here and right now, the way that fox news is framing their debate they're probably not going to get on stage. so you know rick santorum had his run in iowa last time around. i feel like when i've been in iowa people have not been as excited about him this time. he would need a debate moment to catch fire. martin o'malley on the other hand is a little different story. obviously he doesn't have a ton of name recognition. he doesn't have poll numbers anywhere near what you're seeing for hillary clinton. but we saw what happened with barack obama in 2012 when he hit the first debate and had not been up ag
