heather: while i have you hear from iowa and hampshire -- and new hampshire, i want to dive into 2020. how are you preparing for what will be one of the most intense presidential campaigns we have ever seen? have you had anybody through new hampshire yet? i am not preparing for 2020. my senate race is up in 2020. important in new hampshire as in iowa, one of the reasons the iowa caucuses and new hampshire primary have survived as long as they have is because the voters are very engaged. they take an interest on what is going on. it is not enough to get television time. you have to answer questions and say what your ideas are. what is your vision. that is important to the political process, and we welcome all of those candidates thinking about running. we have had a couple dropout on the democratic side, and i expect the field to change as we go through the process. we have also seen a number of our colleagues who have been through iowa, and it says, the voters in iowa and new hampshire fully expect that a presidential candidate will sit down at the kitchen table, and they will have a

i think it's important in new hampshire and iowa one of the reasons the iowa caucus and the new hampshire primary has survived as long as they have is because the voters are very engaged. they really taken interest what isag going on. they listen to every candidate before they make a decision they ask tough questions it's not enough just to buy television time you have to engage with voters and answer questions and say what your ideas are and your vision . that's really important to the political process. we welcome all of those candidates thinking about writing we've already had a couple dropout on the democratic side i expect the field to change as we go through the process. >> also a number of our colleagues and others have been through iowa. it is just as jesus said, the voters in iowa and new hampshire they fully expect a presidential candidate will sit at their kitchen table and they will have a conversation with them. it is just up close and personal in those states and because they are so engaged , they know how important it is as the first in the nation primary and caucus voters

so it will continue in new hampshire but to sit down with the workers with a rancher and many of them are engaged in early voting so i do think a lot of the candidates will focus their efforts in new hampshire but those who are formulated with those questions they want to ask what they want to hear about. to make your boat up for reelection in 2020 have you made a decision if you want to campaign with president trump? >> i feel pretty comfortable about doing my own campaigning by president trump does feel pretty good with his favorability rating so i would welcome the president absolutely and iowa. me may not agree on absolutely everything but the same things that are important to the iowa voters like national security with a strong military is important as well as the economy. and right now we are doing quite well 60000 open jobs right now iowa has the lowest unemployment rate in the nation. with increased living opportunities so it is a good environment right now but again i will cover my 99 counties just as i do every year on the campaign trail as well. >> i don't expect to campaig

in new hampshire and in iowa, one of the the reasons that the iowa caucuses and the new hampshire primary have survived as long as they have is because the voters are very engaged. they really take an interest in what's going on. they like to go and listen to every candidate before they make a decision. they ask tough questions and it's not enough to just come in and buy television time. you have to engage with voters. you have to answer questions. you have to say what your ideas are about leading the country. and i think that's really important to the political process. so we welcome all of those candidates thinking about running. we have had a couple drop out on the democrat cannic side. so i expect the field to change. >> we have also seen a number of our colleagues and others that have been through iowa. it's just as the voters in iowa and new hampshire fully expect that a presidential candidate will sit down at their kitchen table and will have a conversation with them. it is just that up close and personal in these states. and i do feel that our voters because they are so engaged, t

what is important to all new hampshire citizens, including new hampshire democrats, is we put out thecome mat and have all of these candidates into our state so they can get the kind of experience that comes with meeting face-to-face with granite stators that are very well-informed, ask tough questions, and are willing to share their personal stories about what their struggles are, what they are challenged by. most people in new hampshire talk to me about the fact that, if you work hard, you want to be able to get ahead and stay ahead. you want to know that you can afford childcare and have a home in a 60 minute he. you want to know -- a home in a safe community. you want to know that you can save for college and that a health care bill won't bankrupt you. that is what i hear about. that is what they are focused on. they want us to solve problems just like they do in their daily lives. i am it your for our candidates to come into new hampshire and listen to our people and be clues to buy them. i think that -- and be quizzed by them. i think that helps them to become better leaders. da

if i won the primary new hampshire or if i had done well in the primary new hampshire, it would have been felt at that time that it was a personal struggle. it would have been written in the press. every time i spoke about the vietnam or spoken on what i think needs to be done as far as the cities are concerned. it's put in the context of a personal struggle between myself and president johnson. therefore, we would get away from what the issues are which divide this country. i think that the new hampshire primary established that the division that exists in this country and division that exists in the democratic party are there. i haven't brought that about. what brought that about is what president johnson, the policies that are being followed by president johnson. as far as what is happening at the moment, i can't believe that anybody thinks that this is a pleasant struggle or i'm asking for a free ride. i've got five months ahead of me as far as the convention is concerned. i'm going to go into primary and present my case to the american people. i'm going to go across this country

bush in new hampshire, i ran into gene mccarthy. he said, don't worry, when you get up, you don't have to win but you have to eat the point spread. caller: i am also a veteran. the thing i think caused nixon to win was because he had a cause that all of my friends and a couple died in vietnam, as a result of it, and what it was was the draft just turned everybody away from the thought that we were going to have anything other than a war for the rest of our lives. host: thank you. guest: the draft, when i went to work with nixon, i had decided that we were going to have to do away with the draft because the country was coming apart. secondarily, because we were beginning to draft people who basically in the barracks would have been seditious. they were so antiwar, and anti-military, that in order to have future wars, you would have to end the draft. nixon talked to eisenhower -- i had a memo -- i wrote him a memo and said people will say we are just doing this to let folks that are against the war not have to serve and that is a bad

president johnson narrowly defeats him in the new hampshire primary on march 12th.t's the key thing to keep in mind, michael cohen, he didn't lose the primary, it was basically his margin of victory. >> he won by four points, i believe, but it was touch a tight -- he won more than 4% of the vote, extraordinary. and, you know, i think showed the dissatisfaction within the party. and bobby kennedy used that as a rationalization for getting in the race. he said i don't want to divide the party by going in. but the party was clearly divided. there was a huge division. one thing worth pointing out be-new hampshire vote. 20% of maccarthy supporters votd for george wallace. it was an anti-war vote. it wasn't a bunch hippies saying we should bring the troops home. a lot of people voted for mccarthy, they thought johnson should escalate the war. they wanted to find a way to bring troops home. one thing about mccarthy, a lot of credit for, he didn't run on this anti-war platform. he ran on a senate protest vote. sent a message to washington about how you feel about the war ef

the remarkable new hampshire campaign of senator eugene mccarthy has proven how deep are the present divisions within our party and within our country. until that was probably clear, my presence in the race would have been seen as a clash of personalities rather than issues. overhat fight is won, policies which i have long been challenging, i'm a center that race. a fight that is just beginning -- i must enter that race. i find that is just beginning i believe that i can win. i'd previously communicated this to president johnson and late last night, my brother, senator edward kennedy, battled myconsin to communicate decision to senator mccarthy and make clear to my brother and senator mccarthy that my candidacy would not be in opposition to his, but in harmony. my aim is to both support and inand his valued campaign the spirit of his november 30 statement. time, ite month at a is important now that he achieve the largest possible majority in in wisconsin, in pennsylvania, and in the massachusetts primaries. i strongly support his effort in those states and i urge all my friends to gi

graham: i want to thank my colleague from new hampshire and maybe just ask a question. when we went to syria and iraq together, did anyone in the military suggest to you that withdrawing in the foreseeable future was a good idea? mrs. shaheen: absolutely not. in fact, they talked about how pleased they were with the gamee partnership, with the s.d.f., with what they were seeing in terms of stabilizing those communities, people coming back to their homes, rebuilding, and how important it was for us to stay there. mr. graham: did they also not say that the syrian democratic forces were some of the best allies we've had since 9/11? mrs. shaheen: without a doubt. and we saw that firsthand, as you remember, when we saw them as sentries guarding our outpost, when we saw them in the communities, when we saw them in the dpengs facilities trying to abide by international standards with respect to the foreign fighters they were guarding. it was very impressive. mr. graham: did anyone suggest to you that the war against isis in syria was over and had been won? mrs. shaheen: not at

i hosted an event with corey a new hampshire where i invited mr. trump to come in april 2014 to manchester, new hampshire, and that's were introduced him to corey who, when later he would ask me who should manage his campaign, i read introduced him to corey lewandowski who went on to win more primaries and caucuses than anyone, i would get a little credit to the candidate. the candidate did it. corey helped a little. >> so pick up the story from there. he introduced you to donald trump. >> sharyl, life is so amazing. i got a phone call and dave asked if i would come to new york city to meet mr. trump and his office. i i had a job at the time but i drove over from new hampshire where i live and went up to see him in his office overlooking central park. it was surreal. he sat behind the desk and he asked me if he is going to run for president, i think he could went and what strategy would i employ? if i want to run the debate in new hampshire and the told him i wasn't interested. he said if you come aboard would you and hoping? i said yes. i told i w

i came from new hampshire to virginia. you know whate new hampshire is like. we don't have the electronic voting and i looked at that little thing on the ballot and it i left it blank. he is doing some good buddy so dishonest. you have got a background in behavior with people and he does lie. why? >> guest: if you could just give me one example. >> host: you know what? we are going to have time. >> guest: i would love to hear one example. he doesn't strike me as a dishonest person. starting witht his -- on the elevator when he made the statement about mexicans. that's not what he said. i read it word for word and might look and explained it and many other things prefer example obama's list of countries. many people thought that was a horrible thing. children at the border was obama's policy. a lot of things ifill haven't been communicated in the media. people misunderstand me just don't know any outright lie by this president. i'dd happy to -- . >> host: "mad politics" keeping your sanity in a world gonecr crazy dr. rosanna arquete and is the author forward by

at home in new hampshire karen and her family were slowly recovering from their injuries. not some much the loss of physical abilities things like the loss of. especially for me my rose colored glasses you know. just the reality. the latent ships people are. different things are not the same. when even with one and i. different. working through things and i'm working through things that. it had been six months since the bombing and karen had not yet seen her good friend celeste who was with them at the finish line and lost both her legs. in the beginning. initially i. i couldn't bring myself. to believe it. because i felt. celeste and sixteen others lost limbs that day. ron was one of the lucky ones doctors were able to save his leg but the trauma and pain still lingered. we're going to have to work for a long time to get to new normal whatever that going to be. after months of deliberation attorney general eric holder announced the u.s. would seek the death penalty. the defense will argue that the car was pressured into it by his older brother that he was a popular well l

there is some traditional, with ohio, excuse me with iowa and new hampshire.play, i think a very -- going to play a very important role. the democratic national committee changed policy surrounding issue of superdelegates, came to forefront in 2016, that bernie sanders supporters thought hillary clinton were rigging it with superdelegates. in the absence of super delegates, it is anybody's game. so many candidates in the field, people will not get 50 plus one. it will be a fractured delegate allocation. that also goes back to party policies as well on how delegates are actually allocated, if it's a winner-take-all for the whole state or if it is proportionate. that makes a difference as well. blake: lauren, last question for you. republicans were going through this, in 18, 19, 20, i forget the exact number of candidates. one of the story lines the republican party is farred. we're hearing there may be 20 or 30 democrats. let's flip it, could we see fracturing of the democratic party? >> i don't know if it's a fracturing, but sure it will be more diverse. harde

one of the things i sometimes hear from constituents in new hampshire is that we have given money to build schools in afghanistan, and we need schools in our communities at home. you can talk about hospitals or whatever the investment is that we made in afghanistan. i will say the one positive comment that i hear frequently from people is about the commitment to women and girls in afghanistan. there is real concern that if we pull out of afghanistan without having some sort of a peace agreement, that there will be a circumstance where women and girls will be once again of rulesd to all kinds that the taliban have imposed. i think when you talk about specifics of what we have accomplished like getting girls in school and liberating women, there is a real support for that, because that is consistent with american values. when you talk about the amount andoney that has been spent the time we have been there, i hear people say, when is it going to end? what has been the value of this investment? >> that is a very difficult question, jennifer. i would agree with senator shaheen. we have e

later that summer karen traveled from a home in new hampshire to boston. meant at the federal court. we were all seated together and he walked out he didn't look at any of us but his hand was obviously entered and my immediate response was i hope that her i hope it's painful. not like me. and the recognition of that about me was scared because that isn't who i am. pled not guilty to all thirty counts seventeen punishable by death. the federal prosecutor asked victims if the us should seek the death penalty. i don't know. i don't know. i. don't know what justice is. terrorist acts are rare much more common are the murders and other violent acts that happen every day across the united states. in philadelphia shannon schieber was finishing her first year of graduate school. she had been up studying it was early thursday morning her for i would say it was friday morning. about two o'clock in the morning she was preparing to take a bath. the assailant who who attacked her he pried open her sliding door. she screamed for help as she was being attacked. the next
