passo with the identity of politics is alive as it is then we see it with obama as much as with hillary clinton in looking at the clinton campaign i was surprised that she reacted as strongly as she did to one particular incident and there's an anecdote the retelling the book about her daughter. there was a tv commentator who made an offhanded remark that chelsea clinton because she was calling donors was being pumped out by the clinton campaign. at msnbc, yeah and the clinton campaign referred to some money things by then it was hard to imagine that they would care about one more but in fact when then senator clinton heard about the issue apparently got very upset on a conference call. one got steely and angry and it was one incident fairly late in the campaign that really got her emotions going in private and that was not something that would have expected. posed pujan is joining us on the democrats line from philadelphia. good morning. and. >> caller: hello. look, i need, give me one second to get some perspective. i am a world war ii power trooper loy jumped in the normandy and throughout e

and we see this in obama as with hillary clinton. king at the campaign i was surprised that she reacted to one incident, about her daughter and there was a tv commentator who made a remark, that chelsea clinton was being pimped out. the clinton campaign had heard so much, and when senator clinton heard about this, she was very upset in a telephone call. one saying she cried. but it was one incident fairly late in the campaign, that got her emotions started. and that was not something i expected. host: we have john joining us this morning. caller: hi, give me one second to get some perspective. i am a world war ii trooper, i jumped in normandy and jumped throughout, so i know what war is like. hillary clinton is not president today because she voted for the iraq war. she showed us what we have in politicians today. all they care about getting reelected. she didn't care she was voting to see g.i.'s to iraq to die or maimed for life. she only cared about precluding the -zvrepublicans from attack her from being soft or terror or not voti

secretary hillary clinton -- dominican republic and brazil. secretary hillary clinton will be in coordination with this government. we know that our longer-term effort will not be measured in days and weeks, it will be measured and months and years. that is why it is important to enlist and sustain the support of the american people. that is why it is important to have a point of coordination for all the support that extends beyond our government. here at home president bush and clinton will help the american people do their part, because responding to a disaster must be the work of all of us. those scenes of devastation might as not only of our humanity, but our common responsibilities. this suffering can and must be a time of compassion. as the scope of the destruction became apparent, i spoke to each of these gentlemen and last ast the same simple question, how can i help? -- they asked the same question. they will be asking everyone what they can do, individuals, corporations and individuals. i urge everyone who wants to help to visit www.

ford who has moved to new york, maybe going to run the primary against the senator who replaced hillary clinton. we know that you can come into new york and win, robert kennedy and others. can harold ford be a viable new york candidate? >> i know harold. and see him quite a bit, different things. yeah, you know, new york is a place where we have a history like that. if we were talking about some other state, i would say that's a tough -- that's a tough thing to do. that's a tough thing to come in and at least immediately run for the senate. you can't run for governor in new york. you have to have a five year residency. you can run for the senate. i guess in new york, anything is possible. >> larry: why didn't you run for governor? >> i wasn't -- i didn't want to leave my business and law firm right now. i took a lot of time off to run for president, a lot of things got disorganized. i put them back together. we're in the middle of and on the verge of doing a lot of

melanne met bill clinton -- i think i have it right -- even before hillary did. she and the then future president were students at georgetown in the mid 1960's, where she gained fluency in russian and earned bachelor and masters degrees in languages. melanne also met her partner in life at georgetown, philip verveer, but theology class brought them together. philip too has ambassador status in the obama administration. the asked who ranks higher in the two-ambassador family, husband phil, their two children and two grandchildren, i am reliably informed, would give the same answer. she's the boss. their widely shared appraisal of melanne's white house role is this. no first lady staff ever had a political operative of the caliber and experience of melanne verveer. critics could point to no flaws except possibly one that would hardly disturb bill and hillary clinton. melanne has a tendency to be just a little late, just as i do . among posts that equipped her fer home run white house work and now her current mission, she coordinated civil rights and urban affairs f

it turns out hillary clinton was so confident she would become president that, a full year before the she had already started planning for her transition into the white house. that's in a new book by reporters mark halperin and john heilemann, who have also unearthed secrets from the republican campaign, and some of them directly contradict what sarah palin wrote in her book. palin said she had been misunderstood and mishandled by top mccain staffers. the new revelations quote mccain staffers saying palin created most of the problems. john mccain's chief campaign strategist, steve schmidt, had a major role in choosing sarah palin. just days before the republican convention, john mccain thought he'd be running with joe lieberman. schmidt told us why mccain pivoted from lieberman to palin. >> steve schmidt: roughly up to a week before the convention, we were still talking very seriously about senator lieberman. but once word leaked out that he was under serious consideration, the blowback was ferocious. >> cooper: "ferocious" because many conservatives thought lieberman was far too libe

also secretary of state hillary clinton on the u.s. efforts to provide food and after that, we'll hear from vice president joe biden and homeland security secretary janet napolitano on rebuilding haiti. tomorrow on "washington journal," a discussion on the obama administration's policies on jobs and the economy with democratic strategist karen finney and republican strategist kevin madden and a look at how poorly equipped haiti is for natural disasters. following that, a discussion on the special election in massachusetts to fill the late senator edward kennedy's seat with senator paul kirk.

hillary clinton. but it was a nail-biter. joining me to talk about this, susan pace, washington bureau chief for "usa today." good morning, susan. happy new year. >> thank you, chris. >> barack obama, 30%, beating george w. bush at 4%. nelson mandela for 3%. he really does have a core of strong support in the united states? >> that's right. and we often see presidents coming out at the top of this list. but only two presidents have ever scored higher than barack obama did this year. that was john kennedy in 1961, the year he took office. and george w. bush in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks in 2001. so it's really quite a strong showing. >> and then you have the women's side, and you have hillary clinton, who for 17 years, unprecedented, has been either number one or number two as the most admired. but just barely beating sarah palin. someone about as politically different from her as you could possibly imagine. >> you know, it's so interesting. sarah palin came out of nowhere onto this list. she's never been named before t

the case at issue involved a 90- minute film attacking hillary clinton during her 2008 run for president. >> hillary rodham clinton has undoubtedly become one of the most divisive figures in america.... >> brown: the conservative group "citizens united" produced the film and wanted to run ads for it on television, and distribute it through on-demand cable. instead, federal courts ruled it was akin to a long campaign ad, and should be regulated like one. ultimately, the supreme court disagreed. but today's decision did leave in place other restrictions, including a century-old ban on donations by companies directly to candidates for federal office. direct contributions from political action committees-- created by corporations, unions and individuals-- will still be allowed. the decision is expected to leave candidates, parties and contributors scrambling to adjust to the new reality with crucial congressional elections now 10 months away. >> brown: marcia coyle of the national law journal was of course at the court this morning... and is now here with us. >> thanks, jeff glf i say "of co

>> well, hillary clinton was not a terrific candidate, but she has been a terrific secretary of stateall the predictions about how she and her husband would muck up the policy agenda and become a big political story were wrong. it was shrewd of president obama who is very good to keep his enemies closer than close to have her in the administration. it was a smart move. she has proven her. she is a real homework doer and she apply herself and has done a good job. >> i agree it's not been the same clinton drama but i don't see the achievement. she was cut off with holbrook in charge as a czar and mitchell, and also obama taking control of the major issues himself. she had her embarrassing issue on russia on the reset issue. but most important when she went on the first visit to china and she actually played down human rights, a message for the obama administration through her it would apply across the board. the administration has been weak on this. it hasn't received anything in return. >> perhaps nothing the president did all year caused more controversy than the stimulus package. he

king and the fierce urgency of now and hillary clinton thing senator clinton said hold up a minute. it took a president to sign that bill so she was invoking this notion that look at politics are still run in a top-down way even though king was a seminal figure her point was you still need a president to transform this institution, transform this nation. and really i think the most transformative parts of his streak especially when we dig up the civil rights movement and black power movement and social movements of the 60's and 70's and post war period it is ordinary people who transform this period. it's sharecroppers, seamstresses, people who were in prison. its students come its regular people who then converge with these figures become iconic. >> host: one of the things i love to buy your book was the complexity of it and how you have taken the history of african-americans and have drawn a complex portrait particularly of the iconic figures that you cite. martin luther king, jr. for instance also was a critic of racism and protest against the imam war and called attention to the

hillary clinton, then senator clinton said, well, hold up a minute. it it took a president to sign that bill. she was invoking this notion that our politics are still runs in a top-down way. even though the team was this seminal figure you still need a president to transform the institution and nation. really i think the most transformative parts of our history, especially when we think about the civil-rights movement and the movements of the 1960's and '70's it is really ordinary people who transformed this. it is sharecroppers, seamstresses, people who were imprisoned, students, regular people who then converge with these figures to become iconic. >> host: you know, one of the things i love about your book was just the complexity of it and how you have taken the history of african-americans and really drawn a complex portrait, particularly of the iconic figures that you have cite. martin luther king jr., for instance, you know, also was a critic of racism, and he protested against the vietnam war. he called attention to urban and rural poverty. he h

coming up next, secretary of state hillary clinton briefs reporters. 15 minutes we'll have more about haiti with live remarks from president obama and former presidents bill clinton and george w. bush. and coming up at noon, the inauguration for newly elected virginia governor bob mcdonl. >> now, secretary of state hillary clinton briefing reportersxd yesterday on u.s. relief efforts in haiti. she is traveling to the country today. we'll hear more about her trip right now. this is about 25 minutes and we'll show you as much as we can before live coverage of president obama and former presidents clinton and bush. >> i want to take a moment first to thank the american people who have been extraordinarily generous in the amount of support that they have shown for the people of haiti during this devastating period. through a state department partnership with the red cross and m give, we have raised more than $10 million from more than 1 million donors through our haiti relief campaign. it has become the single largest mobile donation campaign ever. 100% of

we talked about the hillary clinton.o you want to talk about the other two parties in the story. >> everybody wants to talk about this sarah palin. she has come to this polarizing force. what's fascinating about her is she has filled a void in republican leadership. she's able to carry a lot of weight on issues like she did when she brought up the issue of death panels in the healthcare debate. she raises a tremendous amount of money with her pax and she endorses candidates and to her benefit it leads to kind of a surge in support. she wields a tremendous amount of power but she's cheering for one side of the stadium. she's not appealing to moderates and independents. she has a lot of challenges. michelle obama is stretching the boundaries of what it is to be a first lady. she's a modern woman. very adept at being a mother as well as being a first lady to champion causes. and i think she's going to improve the role of women overall in terms of her professional nature. she was a working mom before she ever came to the whi

hillary clinton, robert kennedy and others. can harold ford be a viable new york candidate?i know harold. and see him quite a bit, different things. yeah, you know, new york is a place where we have a history like that. if we were talking about some other state, i would say that's a tough -- that's a tough thing to do. that's a tough thing to come in and at least immediately run for the senate. you can't run for governor in new york. you have to have a five-year residency. i guess in new york anything in possible. >> larry: why didn't you run for governor? >> i wasn't -- i didn't want to leave my business and law firm right now. i took a lot of time off to run for president, and a lot of things got disorganized. i've put them back together. we're in the middle of and on the verge of doing a lot of exciting things like that thing in brazil. my firm has grown. i started the new york office of bracewell giuliani, you know, four years ago. it's gone from three lawyers to 70. we're continuing to grow. so this wasn't the right time to do it. it creates a tremendous amount of disru

hillary clinton. she has joined today in usually should have been at the union has given by the president but she has joined us and this indeed is an eloquent witness to the importance of the united states attaches to the help offered to yemen. indeed we have reason to support which has been promised by all, and especially the five member countries of the security council. you know that it was the ministers of foreign affairs who attended this meeting which shows that there is a true will and intention of helping and i would like to reiterate my thanks to the foreign secretary and would like to thank the prime minister gordon brown for taking the issue to hold this meeting. i'm not going to reiterate what mr. milibrand has said that what we achieved today does indeed achieve the requests made by yemen on how we are going to correct the economic problems which have led to the political programs and the biggest problem of terrorism in yemen. this meeting has reiterated a new that it is a matter of partn

a new book says hillary clinton hesitated when offered the secretary of state job because of concernsut her husband. former president bill clinton. mrs. clinton reportedly told president-elect obama, quote, there is one last thing that's a problem, which is my husband. you've seen what this is like. it will be a circus if i take this job. president obama, of course, pressed for her to take the job anyway. john mccain's senior advisor said sarah palin's poor preparation during the debate led one colleague to predict what he called a debauchle of historic and epic proportions. steve schmidt says palin was not focused or engaged during preparations and he says she kept referring to her opponent as joe o biden which led aides to come up with her famous question, can i call you joe? documents released by the administration thursday regarding intelligence failures prior to the unsuccessful christmas day airplane bombing had two glaring mistakes of their own. national intelligence director dennis blair wrote that the suspect, quote, boarded northwest flight 153 for detroit. but it was flight

hillary clinton, perhaps the first in a president. barack obama, perhaps the first african-american, ultimate and was elected as such. sarah palin, big surprise pick in 2008. as john mccain's running mate. much of the polling question, much of the media coverage, much of the discussion at the watercooler and over the cappuccino counters was about the individuals who were running for president. 2009 was a shift away from individuals and back onto issues. we saw this when you look at the tea party goers, and what they were talking about, these tea parties. fiscal accountability, the exploding debt and deficits, spending money on health care reform, bailing out wall street bonuses, many of the code, being a jerk neighbor subprime mortgage or a great deal of concern about issues, particularly fiscal issues. the town hall meetings that were predominately centered around health care, health care not as a heartstrings issues, as i think the administration was banking on that health care which is the same as a heart sings issue, but health ca

i've been out there saying, the military has, hillary clinton, bob gates, vice president biden. the press reported special discussions in which people put forward a variety of views both in february, march, and again in the extraordinary intense policy review process which i participated in august which came to culmination. so let me be very clear on this. having served every democrat president from washington during the white house in the senior state department. it is when you don't have discussions of a range of options in the room that you should ask questions. and it was to the enormous credit of this administration and to president obama that every view that y'all in this room are likely to hold was put forward inside the windowless room in the basement of the white house. so the president had the full range of views as he set forward first in march and february to send 21,000 troops, including 4,000 training troops. and then in december when he allowanced -- announced 40,000 more. it is the part the press is focused on. it's not the part i'm directly responsible for. i ma

host: the background on hillary clinton during the campaign. : we in the book talk about how the hillary and obama relationship is a love story, which is counterintuitive for people. one of the things that mark and i were surprised to learn is how much of a fan hillary clinton was to barack obama before the campaign did she hosted a fund-raiser for his senate campaign, and she talked very admiring look about him, saying that there is a superstar in chicago, the kind of candidate that she and her husband always wanted to support in the the grand part, very intelligent african- american who had a future and the party. when he came to washington, he seeks her out, six her counsel, already sort of a superstar because of the speech at the convention, and that sort of a bond. she sees him as a potential mentee and he sees her as a potential mentor obviously, a huge amount of conflict and bitterness and then unfolded when they ended at head-to-head in the democratic nomination fight. but in the end, after all for bitterness over how the race turned out

like hillary clinton said.st, there were the bribes. >> a deal has been cut in senator reid's office as the deal was cut with the pharmaceutical companies and the deal was cut with the ama and the deal was cut with the hospital association. >> i don't know what the deal was, but we'll find out what the deal was, just like the deals were cut with -- >> tell the senator what the deal was. >> full of lobbyilobbyists. i can't walk down the hallway -- >> does the senator want to hear the deal? >> if he keeps interrupting, he's violating the rules of the senatism thought he would have learned them by now. >> glenn: $300 million for land, sugar, seiu, doctor fix, the deal that obama made with the evil department suit call companies -- evil pharmaceutical programs. we broke the story about the nea who were called by the white house to use federal dollars through arts endowment to create arts for healthcare. please! they denied this. until we played the tape. >> this is just the beginning. this is the first telephone ca

we really value the words of hillary clinton. however, it's not really something that happens in the shadows. there's government corruption involved. there's lack of law enforcement. there's lack of political will to really address the issue of human trafficking. >> also the main criminals i think are the end users, the buyers of prostituted sex who want the little girls and because of which the traffickers and organized criminal networks see that there is profit in it and they're going to find these girls either in eastern india or europe. >> this is something law enforcement seems not to have got a grip with. they always prostitute the prostitutes. how to get them to prosecute the users, the buyers, the traffickers? >> two ways. we have been campaigning to change the indian law to punish buyers of prostituted sex more severely and also traffickers who are making a profit off the sale and purchase of girls, women, men and boys and we are also trying to get the law changed so it does not punish women for a crime they never commit
