so we need a second green revolution; one that is also ecologically green as wellas yield green. >>reporter: how do you see the importance of investment into agriculture more? how can we do that down the road? >>we have a huge unmet challenge; we have to invest more in agriculture to get more per unit land area of using existing technologies better and we have to invest more in research and development to find better ways to grow the food that give good yield, but also resilience. and then there's one more piece of this puzzle; and it's a daunting puzzle. we are already in the era of climate change, sometimes we talk about climate change as hypothetical, or for the future. well climate change is real;it's not hypothetical and it's not only in the future, it's in the present. there's more climate instability, there are more hazards; like drought and like floods that are undermining the food supplynow, not just in the future and there's more to come. >>reporter: ...are we facing a doomsday scenario? i mean what solutions are there? how do we get ittogether? and especially the polit

rockefeller's building on a 50-year history credited with creating a green revolution in asia 50 yearsly working through the whole system better seeds, better water and soil management. better output markets developed. all of these things saved a billion lives in asia. it is entirely doable in africa. so we are collaborating with the gates foundation, the british aid agency, and others to create something called an alliance for green revolution in africa that's hard at work to prevent these kinds of things from happening in the future. >> is there anything more that the u.s. and united nations should be doing? what should american policymakers be looking for? >> i do think that american policymakers are going to have to confront our protectionist policies. the eu will as well around food aid. we cannot protect our farmers by saying that we will only ship american grown food. once we have these increasing number of humanitarian crises. because of climate change they will grow. so we need a kind of global governance and architecture that will really figure it out. not that we shouldn't u

the green revolution of 2009 was an early indicator of that. that is what i was referring to in the book when i say look across the border the ai iranian shia i can see another kind of policy that is thoroughly shia, but it is one in which the clerics are not in the primer minister's position and they can contrast that with of the obsession they are feeling and say why can't we be more like iraq today, but that's really president obama pointed to that as the 2,009 to iran as the fighting point of the spring and that's wrong. the steady point was to see the revolution in lebanon in 2005 and that puts us back to most of our intelligence the don't want to go as well as saddam hussein that kicked this off in some sense. the bush second inaugural address and president bush did not go forward with its. it was nonetheless there. the issue back then was the question of the uprising and for generations had been due the air and people want to be free and the answer that we got again and again is no, they don't. we have islam, we don't need that, but the

i think the green revolution of 2009 was an early indicator of that.hat's what i was referring to in the book when i say looking across the border, iranian-shia can see another kind of a quality that is certainly thoroughly shia, but it is one in which the others are not in the position of the minister, and they are oppress that with the shias saying why can't we will more like iraq today? that's really president obama pointing to that as the 2009 tehran of the arab spring. i think that's wrong. the starting point was in lebanon in 2005, and that puts us back to where most of our people don't want to go which is the fall of saddam hussein that kicked this off in some points. the bush approach to it, the bush second inaugural address was flushed and president bush did not go forward with it, it was nonetheless there. the issue back then was -- the question asked in the halls of the state department for generations had been do the arab people want to be free? the answer that we got again and again was no, they don't. they have islam. we don't need that.

first of all, let's talk about iran, the green revolution. we saw what happened.re were fledgling attempts through cell phones. this was two years ago, and it was completely stifled. how have we managed to work around or trying to work around all this to help the iranian reformers rise again? >> women, first of all, i think more and more people in that region have gotten access to cell phones, to laptops, to mobile devices of all kind and we're trying to capitalize on that. our agency started almost 70 years ago as a radio short wave agency. as people's media habits have changed we've migrated with them and we're finding television and new media are the platforms of the future. we want to be there. so we are developing along with private sector people in this country some very good internet sir customervention tools and we're having a good deal of success primarily in china and iran of all places. we're just doing gangbusters. we have a many program, for example, that we produce on our persian news network, part of the voice of america, it's a half-hour show. >> w

i think the green revolution of 2009 was an early indicator of that.t's what i was referring to in the book when i say looking across the border. the iranian shia can see another kind of policy that is certainly thoroughly shia but it's one in which the clerics are not in the position of prime minister. and say why can't westbou be mo like iraq today. president obama pointed to that as a 2009 protest in tehran as perhaps the starting point of the arab state and i think that's wrong. the starting point really was the revolution in lebanon in 2005 and that puts us back to where most of our intelligencia doesn't want to go and that is the fall of saddam hussein is what really kicked us off. and the bush approach to it, the bush second inaugural address which was quickly quashed and president bush did not go forward with it politically it's impossible for him to do that was nonetheless there. the issue back then was -- the question i think in the halls of the state department for generations had been do arab people want to be free? and the answer that we g

i think the green revolution was an early indicator of that.that's what i was referring to in the book when i see looking across the border, the iranian shia can't see another kind of a policy that is certainly thoroughly shia. but it is one in which the clerics are not in the position of prime minister or defense minister. a can address that with the operation of the art dealing in iran and say why can't we be more like iran today? that's really president obama pointed that as the 2009 protest in tehran as perhaps the starting point of the arab spring. i think that's wrong. the starting point really was the defeat of revolution in lebanon in 2005. and that goes, put us back to where most of our, we don't want to go and that is the fall of saddam hussein is what really kicked this off. the bush second inaugural address which was quickly quashed, and president bush did not go forward with it politically, it was nonetheless there. they issued bank and wise, the question i think in the halls of the state department for generations had been do the

[applause] and all those seeking to break off the shackles of oppression, be it in iran's green revolution or in a communist oppressed blends guzman revolution, or be it those who stand up to chavez or decastro in latin america. just as we did on july 2 when the founders came together to declare their love of liberty and their own independence. [applause] because we understand five fundamental principles, our liberty is from god, not the government. our sovereignty is in our souls, not the soil or the scepter. our security is in strength, not appeasement or surrender. our prosperity is from the private sector, not the public sector. [applause] and our troops are self evident, not relative -- truths are self evident, not a relative. these will guide us as we move forward into the future, a future which many in this country believe will be one of diminished opportunity for the people of the united states and the next generation. i fundamentally disagree. for those who put their faith in big government, that might make sense, but -- that our best days are behind us, but for those who put thei

dealing with the conflict but for supporting freedom movements within places like iran with the green revolution or the opponents of the assad regime in syria, the terror sponsoring states can peacefully implode like the soviet union did. i also continue to think and continue to point out as people are increasingly starting to realize that the people's republic of communist china is a rival govern yansz and a threat to americans prosperity and security. it's bound upon expanding its influence not only to asia and the world but at the expense of the united states. these are issues coming down the pike that you hear very little about in this type of presidential primary. i think it's something the voters, when you bring it to them, are very attuned to because it's something that's happening, everybody knows is happening. but very few people are talking about it. >> if you use your words, economic stagnation. >> on the way if we don't get assistance. >> the immediate economy under two administrations two different parties what would you do that hasn't been done under the bush administration which c
