i mentioned him all the time. i wrote a book on it, sure. but anyway that's what trump is , doing, and i think it is working. we are getting good results. i know it is early, but i think we will be headed back for that 3.5%. on the way, we will score quarters that are much higher. steve, that's what i think is the ultimate way to solve your debt problems and deficit problems. i am a limited government guy, but you show me subpar growth and i will show you big-budget deficits. if you show me strong growth, i will show you either lower deficits or surpluses. the states should do this, federal government is starting to do it again. as the percentage of gdp, i believe deficits will be coming down. the omb budget is showing that, it will take a while. short run, yes, you will lose revenues in the short run, but the tax cuts will pay for themselves. already, i'm seeing estimates cbo, don't like tax cuts, that we have paid for two thirds by virtue of growth and expanding more revenues. that is terrific. the corporate tax cuts will be paid for by th

and i just had a wonderful time. because i didn't think of the cadets as young little boys so to speak. they were all gentlemen to me and i mean, i was not that much older than they were. and i think we just had a lot of fun together. i went to all of the -- i went to the swimming and to the wrestling and track and, you know, and football of course. baseball. and i loved it all. and the kids would go with me sometimes and sometimes they would say no. but -- >> what were your favorite activities here? >> i loved wrestling can you believe it, but i loved swimming and -- well, i love football of course. and i loved baseball. but i loved -- i just loved sports. >> right. and i imagine that you went to all the formal events, right? >> yes. yes. >> so all the different dances and that sort of thing. >> not all of them, no. >> yeah. and -- oh, yeah, tell me about entertaining at quarters 100. >> oh, well, you could seat ten on either side and so it would be -- >> the tables -- >> at the big table. and we had wonderful people

he said i didn't get in time for -- our flights were delayed and he said i didn't get home in time forhis ball game so i was asking about his ball game and he said what do you care, you are never here anyway. next term he quit. so you're always torn with that, what you're not able to do to be with your family and a lot of young people who want to run for this job have no idea that it's like that, you know, so i try to tell them basically this is what you have to plan for, this is the way it is, it's not what it looks like, here is what you have to do to get there. you have to raise all this money, you have to be committed to make all the phone calls, you have to go see people. you know, you have to do the things that most people today aren't willing to do because it's hard work. so, i don't know, it's not an easy job. there is no question. you know that because you're here. but it's a very gratifying job. >> i just had one last question. in terms of your house career, what do you think will be your lasting legacy? >> i don't know. in all seriousness, i don't know. i really don't. i wou

i did this for some time. i kind of became bored with that, also. there was an organization at that time called the army special forces. i decided at that time frame that i might this try this -- just try this. i headed to volunteer for special forces. i volunteered to be a paratrooper. i volunteered again for the army, to do this. i was selected to try to become a special forces member at that time frame. this required about a year and half of their extensive training , not only the physical aspects, but the mental aspects, also. >> you get this training and you end up in vietnam for the first tour, which was relatively mild. >> the forest -- first tour was relatively mild for me. i was just wounded one trip, not that first trip. yes, it was very mild. i spent a little time in vietnam. this was in early, 1963. it was relatively calm at that time. >> but, then he came back in 1966, or 65? >> 1965 and 66, i was back in vietnam again. in that time, it was not so common, one of the positions -- there is a story that goes with this, my sergeant major cam

and i decided i'm going once more. and this time, i pushed the issue of the 50 foot channel and the need for it. and i really acquired a much larger volunteer support and but am i still on the second time? >> you are on a third time. 1984. helen: ok. ok. i had a nasty challenge in the primary. as david who had been one of jack's heroes. of course, i'm a two-time was a loser, get out. his claim was since he had been born there, though he has never lived there, he was as entitled to run in the district as i was. well, you know, who knows. this comes later. i have my little red button. and i ran hard. >> in any of those campaigns, did you receive support from women's groups? helen: no. they were not active in maryland at that time. i received help from the maritime people. mostly. i had a limited amount from women's groups. we did not have -- who are the ones today? >> like now? the national organization for women? helen: no, now, there are others. there were none of those active. you had to do it on your own. that is where i went. for

but -- but, am i still on the second time i ran. >> you're on the third time. '84. >> okay. okay. that's -- okay. i had a nasty challenge in the primary from a guy named david schmick who had been one of jack kemp's heroes. now, of course, i was a two-time loser. get out. so his claim was that since he'd been born there, although he had never lived there, he was as entitled to run there in that district as i was. well, you know, who knows. this comes later. i had my little red buttons, and i ran. i ran hard. >> in any of those campaigns, did you receive support from any women's groups or organizations? >> no. i did not. women's groups at that time were not active in maryland. i received help from the maritime people. mostly. i had a limited amount from women's groups. women. not as groups. we did not have -- who are the ones today? >> like n.o.w., yeah. like the national organization for women. >> no, there are others. >> there were none of those active and doing money for women. you had to do it on your own. and that's where i went. fortunately, i had the support of labor. i had t

>> i can't remember a time when i liked him. i can't remember a time i liked him. i thought he was a bully. i thought he was brutal. my father just had to stand and we were scared. i didn't think it was me. i thought it was him. by the way, nobody in my neighborhood had a warm fuzzy "leave it to beaver" relationship with their dads. nobody did. all of them were vietnam, world war ii vets, tough guys. my good friend had a father who was a world war ii vet. my other friend greg did. they were all not emotional men. so i didn't think there was anything unusual about it. but i had a wonderful childhood. i was in the boy scouts. i played baseball. i swam. i had a wonderful childhood. >> larry elder, thanks for joining us on book tv. >> my pleasure, peter, thank you for having me. :: >>> now here is graeber discussing his book,

i was in vietnam again. in that time, it was not so common, one of the positions -- there is kind of a story that goes with this -- my friend came after me and said, i want to make you my intelligence sergeant. keep in mind, this was the organization where you got to sleep in real beds and had real food to eat. this type of thing. i said, i can do this. i cleared post and reported to the sergeant major two days later and he said i have bad , news for you. our sergeant just got hit in a shau valley and i have to send you out there. they sent me to this location. it was probably the worst in vietnam at that time. katie lamar jackson: and the location was the problem, correct? not only was it remote, but it was surrounded by hills and it was hard to defend. bennie adkins: absolutely. a mountainous country. triple canopy. all types of insects, reptiles. was the major infiltration route for the north vietnamese moving ietnamesesouth v country. katie lamar jackson: if i recall, it was also understaffed, even when you got there

katie lamar jackson: i think we have time. we could start entertaining questions and answers from the audience. i think i have been told if you have a question you would like to ask, there are microphones on the step. please go to the microphone to be able to ask questions. does anybody have any? >> thank you for this opportunity, for the talk, for both of you, and for you sir, for your service, and for sharing with us. thank you for your service. we welcome that you are here today. mentioned, and you are wearing the medal of honor, the captain who kept with it, is this a common practice? 48 years later he was successful for the reward for your service. when was it that someone said you should be given the medal of honor and then started the process? what is the process from that perspective? as you mentioned, it is a humble and experience, there are many men and women who serve and deserve just as much for their service. there are the few who received it because of the paperwork and other aspects that are required to receive t

and i mean it. every time w, i mean it. because she was sold on what she wanted it, and that was it. you better make your research -- anyway. that time, then we -- sunday noon, the dinner is going to be tuesday night. she also rejected two desserts. too many things going on in my head at the same time. and she's having lunch at the solarium in the white house, a beautiful room and a very long table there for sympathetic else. and the president was eating in one hand and nancy reagan at the other hand, eating lunch. so when i came with the dessert, nancy reagan look at the dessert, and oh, i said, man, brace yourself, man. and roland, that's not going to do. and she could never tell you why. but that's not going to do. president reagan came to my rescue. he said, he said, honey -- he was talking to his wife, not to me. he said, honey, leave the chef alone. that's a beautiful dessert. and so, nancy reagan looked up to the president and said, honey, eat your soup. this is not your problem. so he went down and ate his soup. well

i suppose, at the time, i wanted to experience what it was like doing tough and boring manual labour. been reading a lot of hemingway at the time. all the time when i was that age, i was sort of pitting myself, saying, "how would i cope in this or that situation"? "i was sweeping the road outside the natural history museum, when my flatmate tim drove up in his land rover. "i think you should get in," he said in a tight voice. he then told me my father had died. i often think i have no memory for detail but i can remember every colour, every hue of that moment. the greyness of the sky, the blue—green of the land rover, the darker green of its seats, the coat i was wearing, a brown raincoat, short and, i thought, italian—looking, which i had worn with such swagger at school with the blue scarf which meant i had been awarded my colours for rugby. the coat was showing its age and i had tied it round with a bit of parcel twine to keep out the wind of london's streets." on london's streets." that's not a bad bit of writing, really, isn't it? basically, i was just thinking, if somebody was t

i wear heels all the time. i never wore heels during those times, because you were running between committee meetings and hearings. it was just insane. there is a funny saturday night live clip with chris farley and newt gingrich. and again, with all of the excitement that comes with being in the majority and the optimism that came with that. think about 10 major pieces of legislation happening in 100 days. crazy. what role did women republican leaders play? rep. molinari: if there was a press conference being held, women needed to be there. ,omen needed to be spokespeople we were going to get a woman up there. i don't mean to make it sound like it was so great and easy, you did not wait your turn because you are a female. they wanted you out there espousing, speaking, doing talk shows, specifically on cnn, do whatever you need to do to be a messenger for the republican party. so women did a lot of that. >> one example of that was you give the keynote address at the republican convention in san diego. what did t

i learned a lot. time, i met different , met arthur books laffer and jack kent. by this time, i had moved to wall street as an economist. dids very much in the flow, speech writing for william e simon. that was my introduction to political economy. he had read some stuff i had written. i helped him out with a bunch of speeches. including speeches at the republican convention in detroit in 1980. i moved into the free market supply side of economics. i had been there ever since. >> you mentioned congressman jack kent. how would he view this party today, both here in this white house and on capitol hill,? >> i miss him dearly. longtime friend and mentor. i think jack would like a lot of this. reagan, those guys were trying to drain the swamp. they were big tax cutters. androw the economy , limitze the dollar government, limit regulations. these are things president trump is also doing. i think kent would approve. i think he would approve of the trump spirit of drain the swamp, transformation, change. i think jack would probably disagree on the trade strategy. i don't

i love the church. the first time i went to mass, i loved it. i loved the order, the pageantry, the ceremony, the the smoke, the water, i loved it all. i said god take me. it took a long time, i might add, to get through things. i have been very active in church, both in new york and in connecticut. steve: one final point on this issue, for those dealing with addiction today watching our conversation, what would you tell them? what advice would you give them? mr. kudlow: you know, get yourself some help. you get desperate and you don't know which is worse, drinking or not drinking, using drugs or not using drugs. life really goes to hell. always have, and i am always happy to help out, public life people, private life people, try to get yourself to a 12-step meeting and get on the internet or something and find yourself a good treatment center. as i said, i went to hazelden. there are a lot of really good wasones. understand that you cannot do this alone. you must ask for help. if you do that, you will at least be taking some steps. i would also

and that's what i didn't get at the time. i thought, "why me?"ot of young people feel the same way. your autobiography, under a mackerel sky, you'd better explain the title first. well, i didn't come up with it. it was actually someone at ebury books, one of the editors. but i thought it was such a good one because, when my father died, and i left england, rather hurriedly, i was walking out of a pub in notting hill gate, and there was a mackerel sky and i put it in the book, "mackerel sky is a sign of big change ahead", which indeed was the case for me. i didn't name it that but it's just the best name possible, as far as i'm concerned because, obviously, a lot of it is about my life as a seafood cook so it worked a treat. the thing that really struck me about your book was how rootless you were at first. you just didn't really know who you were. there's a great quote right at the start from james thurber, "all men should strive to learn before they die what they are running from and to and why." i love james thurber, those fables. the book was

time zones at once. oh it's so special because i remember my time in bamberg over or ten years ago when i was. preparing so hard for this mahler competition and coming to this beautiful town and hearing this incredible orchestra conducted by the other conductors and then finally getting the chance to stand in front of the circus and i remember the emotion and excitement and desire i had to to get to work more with them and of course this competitions go you never know why or what what you did wrong or what they're looking for and as you say i didn't i didn't pass to the final round and. but it was so it was engraved in my ear in my memory in the sound of this orchestra the beauty of the hall and the acoustics and i just really dreamt of maybe one day being able to work with them but honestly and i had said this to the orchestra yesterday i never thought it would be possible i thought oh well maybe in another lifetime but after ten years of working very hard i get this opportunity and i feel absolutely honored and and it's really strange i sort of wish that. the lawn that out of ten years ago w

now, i was a two-time loser. get out. so, his claim was that since he had been born there, although he had never lived there, he was as entitled to run in that district as i was. well, you know, who knows. this comes later, i had my little red buttons, and i ran, i ran hard. >> in any of those campaigns, did you receive support from any women's groups or organizations? >> no, i did not. women's groups, at that time, were not active in maryland. i received help from the maritime people mostly. i had a limited amount from women's group, women, not as groups. >> like now? the national organization for women? >> no, there are others. there were none of those active in doing more for women. you had to do it on your own. that is where i went. fortunately, i had the support of labor. i have the support of workers, and even though, i had the support of labor, not the union heads, but the members who lived in my district, were very supportive, and they voted for me. and because they voted for me, i was elected. and may have had som

i mean, i did that all of the time. and, that's what -- you know, one of the first ladies was very tough, if i would say one thing, she was great. i loved to work for her, because she knew what she wanted, that is nancy reagan. trust me, you better do what she asked you to do, and do it the right way. and that's nothing wrong there. again, i love to work for people like this. i would rather do that than people that go oh, well i don't know, i am not too sure. we do not want that. okay. and i remember very quickly, and then i'll take the question , the last one, with mrs. reagan, we are someday, noon, at the white house, we were going to have on tuesday the queen of the netherlands, and you know the netherlands is known for its tulip, the beautiful tulip over there. anyway, i had already had shown nancy reagan to dessert, which she said roland, no. you know, nancy reagan, i studied her very early on. she is an interesting character. when she was going to give you the finger, her head also moved to the right. and she did t

but i have to say the best time i have ever felt with it and with the result that i have to see the result was that the key was so as we started our very first season together in two thousand and seventeen it was a very special concert it was sense of magic. this week i got to work with one of the baddest ballet companies in the world the royal ballet and one of the best ballerinas in the world some highly enough sleep who actually gave me a little dancing lesson learned by listening so i always want to feel what it actually says like to stand on the point should listen and hour it happened to me so my this very last week and very last performances with the royal ballet so it was very emotional moment and a real privilege to be part of this quite balance and. then when i was not so now we wasn't going to be bargains like the mountain man which isn't it was just let me ask you something like that but you know it was a one thing. with this and it was quite well and it looked that most of the convenience didn't know something and we did that the minute i walked in the time yeah. th

and it is just a question of how much stamina have i got, what time have i got left? me have i got left? each project takes years to realise. so i have to have a long think. i have ideas for two or three more novels, andi ideas for two or three more novels, and i am going to have to make some ha rd and i am going to have to make some hard choices, i inc. hillary mantell, thank you so much. hello there. this weekend, again, we look to the atlantic to see where our weather is coming from. we're going to add into the mix, just for good measure, the remnants of an old tropical storm. it will feel quite humid out there this weekend. for many it will be dry on saturday, more rain for some on sunday. there was a fair bit of dull, damp, cool and wet weather across some parts of the country on friday. a lot of that has moved through. this area of low pressure, though, contains remnants of tropical storm ernesto, to arrive in the second half of the weekend. still got some rain on that weather front there, though. that is strung out across central and southern scotland, the north

i said, i know, but they all thought i was crazy at that time. and i wasn't. womenthat small number of , there were quite a few from maryland? >> at that time, there were four of us. >> get a special bond emerge between the two of you -- that a special bond emerge between you? >> any of us can call each other up if there is a need what they want something, and we have. we still occasionally have lunch together. i am a republican. barbara mikulski is a democrat. beverly byron is a democrat. marjorie hope is a republican. and connie marilla is a republican. we are still all here. think we are all sad that there hasn't been a woman outside of barbara in the house for some time now. when you first came to congress, was there anyone who served as a mentor or offered you valuable advice? helen: not really. not really. i had -- during my newspaper days, i had become her info -- i had become very close to the three democrat, male congressman from the city of baltimore. and that was rare. the three chairman of the committees were from the same area. george fallon, head

oh, yeah, many times. yeah, ii tell the joke that the pawnbroker played it better than i did. and you go retrieve it. i'd would retrieve it for a saturday night. i love something you said, that "the picking finger is the second most important part of the body." care to say what the first is? i forgot i said that. you did say that. it was pretty funny. - you were a dj for a time. - right. would you honor me with the way you introduced your show? this is your ol' cotton-pickin', snuff-dippin', tobaco-chewin', stump-jumpin', gravy-soppin', coffeepot-dodgin', dumplin-eatin' hillbilly from hill county willie nelson. where'd you get the dumpling eating? i don't know. it was kind of euphonious, you know? harvey: "rolling stone" has called you, justifiably, one of the great singer-songwriters of all time. didn't start out easy for you, though, did it? willie: the scale of what i considered success was i was very successful when i first made some money playing a guitar that i didn't have to go pick ( bleep ) cotton for. so

i mean, i saw this scene like six times. as as close as i am to you, and i was so moved every time. he was so genuine. >> he was bigger than life, grander than life, and so adorable, so funny. >> i suppose it might mean something for you to think that some day somebody says john candy and everybody smiles. >> that would be nice, that would be nice. then you've done your job. >> announcer: history of comedy brought to you by -- i woke up in memphis and told...

he said i didn't get home in time, our flights were delay, and he said i didn't get home in time for his ballgame, so i was asking. he said, what do you care, you are never here anyway? next term, he quit. so, you are always torn with what you are not able to do to be with your family. a lot of young people who want to run for this job have no idea that it is like that. so, i try and tell them, basically, this is what you have to plan for. this is the way it is. it is not what it looks like. this is what you have to do to get there. you have to raise this money. you have to be committed. you have to make the phone calls. you have to do the things most people today are not willing to do, because it is hard work. it is not an easy job, there is no question. you know that, because you are here, but it is a very gratifying job. >> i just had one last question. in terms of your house coat rear -- in terms of your house career, what you think will be your lasting legacy? >> i don't know. i don't, i just hope it would be that i am respected as a member who tried to do the best i could and he

i do an interview and i look around then i get an offer by the time i get home and i thought they have some cool stuff it was like a campus environment and my interview was incredible he was a physicist and come here and just think and create i would like really? [laughter] that was a good and positive interview to make my experience was phenomenal i remember the first time i realized people did not appreciate the education i had from uva as a technician i was getting stuff made by a technician he said where did you go to school? i said university of virginia he said no virginia state. no. charlottesville. he said you went to the black school virginia state. i am thinking what is up with this guy? but then i sensed a form of racism a little bit someone doesn't expect you to have achieved certain things and i befriended catherine johnson. she was always positive and no matter what the situation she would talk about there is always a solution to her card and figure it out he had retired when i got there but that was the turning point for me because i joined this group of african-american

thank you for cher i wish i could more i reload well this is the first time i speak to russian people well i promise you we're going to have another lengthy interview in the mirror so i promise you that much of i hope so i really want the russian people to think about life and death it's the life. every citizen i'm concerned not the national security international security and you know all these minute thirty juggins yes it's important for us to know such things but the most important thing is to remember you money that's the most important thing i hope your message gets across and people will hear it and understand it and take it close to heart thank you so much so so. we're talking to circus arlo hiroshima bombing survivor and it is charming men's compay in are discussing how her great experience talf us addressed in a clear danger today that's it for this edition of sophie and co i'll see you next . the philippine city of angeles when the u.s. military moved out the six tourists most did. and now a whole generation of fatherless children is growing up here. my dad an opinion one mo

it seemed like we were at the church every time the doors open. i learned to take my religion very seriously. so much so that when it was time to choose a college to attend i chose baylor university. i had to face the fact that i was different because i fell in love with the girl at taylor. now when i had been in high school i had what i call strange feelings toward a particular girl. having been brought up in a very conservative home i had never heard the word. i had no idea it was even possible for a girl to fall in love with another girl. so i have no vocabulary to explain to myself what it was that i was feeling. as i have already mentioned i fell in love. we were both 17 and this was in 1956. when the christmas holiday came we were separated for the first time and we missed each other so much that we were always writing letters back and forth. each evening i propped up in bed and i wrote to her. my dad was a sociology major with knowledge of same sex attraction and rightly concluded that his only daughter was. he shared this information with my

of the breakup of the soviet union and i don't recall a time when three intelligence chiefs all came together to washington such as just happen and so i take it as a very positive signal of a desire to do more and i hope both sides can find the strength to do that. this is just a chance for politicians to loughton t.v. friendly blaming spies right and left because on the other hand surely they must care about the actual issues of national security right yes i hope so and i have i have a deep respect for senator schumer and i i quote i would question this based on what i've seen in the media and i hope behind it all it's not a seriously questioning why we would be doing this at this time i would also add that again this is a somewhat unorthodox few for someone like me i'm not a believer in applying sanctions to people that are doing their jobs we have a long history of of trying to avoid that sort of politicization of intelligence so i think we try to have to try to find out find a way to deescalate the politicization of intelligence activity it would help again if bot

i knew was it was go time. i spent hours and hours almost 24 hours trying to get to this world cup after training for the last few months and preparing for this world cup. i would get there in the morning of i would wake up after going to sleep relatively early, having a great-- eating well, getting a good night sleep and i would wake up really tired and i would get to the fencing hall, to the venue and i would be so tired and i couldn't explain the fatigue like i couldn't understand why when i got on the strip my feet felt like a lead and i could not move or lunch or do anything i was losing in the first round. this is that like baby trying to make the national team. this is like number six, seven in the world and i couldn't figure out why going out in the first round of competition and it just so happened-- i don't remember why we had a team psychologist all of a sudden. i know that i personally was dealing-- we had just won a world championship and not felt like a lot of pressure. will champion on the strip a

i mean, i saw this scene like six times. as as close as i am to you, and i was so moved every time. he was so genuine. >> he was bigger than life, grander than life, and so adorable, so funny. >> i suppose it might mean something for you to think that some day somebody says john candy and everybody smiles. >> that would be nice, that would be nice. then you've done your job. not so cute when they're angry. and we covered it. talk to farmers. we know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two. ♪ we are farmers. bum-pa-dum, bum-bum-bum-bum ♪ thea better time to try oureen sprint network. because now, we have our new unlimited plus plan. it has hulu and all the tv and movies you love, tidal music streaming, 15 gb mobile hotspot and full hd. we need to shout this deal from the rooftops. yeahhh. best deal ever! and it's all on the network built for unlimited.

i wear heels all the time. i always wear heels all the time. i never did because i was running between committee meetings and hearings and markups. and it was just insane. i remember a really funny saturday night, a clip with chris farley being nude green carriage -- being newt gingrich, where he said, family medical leave, past! and, the optimism and enthusiasm that came with that, just thinking about 10 major pieces of legislation happening in 100 days. >> and, what role did women, republican members play, during that period? besides you in leadership. >> still relative. i think women on committees certainly are spokespeople. there was never, ever an issue of if there was a press conference to be held, that women needed to be there, and we needed to be spokespeople and if we felt strong about it we are going to get that woman up there. i mean, i don't mean to make this sound like it was also great and easy, but you did not wait your turn because you were a female, right? they wanted you out there espousing and speaking and doing talkshows and

i ran against a very popular incumbent at the time. and so, i thought, you know, it really was difficult from the sense that the media, they used to write articles about what i wore. till finally one day i said, article never write an about my opponent. he has on a navy blue suit and blue tie. and there was dead silence. this is the editor of the paper. he said, you're right. it was that kind of thing all the time. if i did something, everybody was critical. in a different way than they are today. this was kind of a first for the city. and so, i learned kind of the hard way. but once they realized i was serious and had an agenda to accomplish something after i was elected, i was taken seriously. people came together and charlotte is known as a city that works together. so the things i accomplished as mayor -- people came to help. i was like a vehicle or a vessel that all of this happened through. but it was a great experience, because first of all, it gave me a grounding in the political process. at that time, i had no plans to run for

i have been back a few times. >> any official announcement? >> i was in tampa, hillsborough county faction, i should go to every hillsborough county and make a decision, to travel around and figure out what i going to do. >> i'm absolutely being serious about it. to the people of iowa, i'm not going to go out and do this on some lark. the 2020 election is a critical election, the most critical in modern times. i want to picture the democrats nominate somebody who can beat donald trump. >> how would you bring the fight to him in the campaign? >> the same way i have done at the last few months only a more effective where i throw my head in the wing. there is nothing about that, he is a bully who doesn't like people that punch back. she would be incredibly effective, i don't think he is quick on his feet or intelligence and completely outclassed. >> what are your thoughts? >> my next stop is iowa on wednesday, functioning for the dnc and in late september, two events. i was invited to assist congressional candidates in california, back to ohio and

i wasn't able to get a clear answer but i met with the plan checker four or five times so far and i have brought these things up, ab009 and he says how many times do you come and see me? i already told you this complyied with the city. >> okay, thank you sir. your time is up. >> only thing is i would like to request that the board of appeals upholds my building permits. >> clerk: thank you sir, your time is up. >> we will now hear from the appellant. >> i am leo branco. i am one of the owners and next door to mr. sigh syad's subject property. i received the plans late last night and spent the whole day in the city department and there were ap lot of things that were not addressed in the revised plan. the california and san francisco building code do not allow windows on the property line neither fire protected windows or sprinkler protected, this is in the california building code. here it is, the table. can i have the overhead? here is table where this is clearly saying that it's not allowed and everyone is asking why is the percentage of the size of the windows and it's right here. if

but i was told that i was imagining it all. but by the timesensation of doors closing on me. and a feeling that i was not going to be able to make a professional career, that my health was in my way, and so i thought, well, i better have something that i am in charge of. and i still had to work, of course. i still had a job, but i started writing in the evenings, on the weekends, and i set my stall out for very big novel that i knew would take many years. but that is the beauty of being 22, because the time just stretches ahead of you. and i still had no connections, and i didn't know anybody who was a writer. but what do you need? well, you need a piece of paper and a pencil and you are ready to go. so you tell me that if you had not been ill, you would not have become a writer? i certainly would not have taken the decision at that precise time. i think possibly i would have made way way back to writing when i was living abroad, during which time i didn't have any meaningful career, so i think they would have come back to writing at a later s

i ended up next for the next time i shot that i was in a unit that didn't consider consider shooting a requirement the next time i went back i didn't shoot so well and i got the pizza box. so having more the box because i didn't shoot well with the pistol or the rifle it was infuriating because i knew every time i had to wear that green uniform it was scrutinized and they were not judging me on that so i got to parris island i i realized how poorly they were doing knowing that's the first visible sign if you have respect from someone looking at you it was personal for me to make sure the women were shooting well. i started with myself focusing going to the pistol range for months and made myself shoot expert. i knew if i did it and i could expect my recruits to do it. >>host: that the instructors didn't care? >> but i was fortunate even though with my boss h when i was fortunate to work with the training battalion from the commanding officer down and they absolutely loved what we were trying to do to improve the women's coarsely partners and collaborated coming up with a strategy and

i feel that pressure all the time. and not just because i'm a public figure, but because with i feel like my faith reminds me of the way that, in my mind, i would like to behave and also i feel like i have a long legacy of people that i need to, that i would like to live up to. and at the same time, like jacqueline said, i think it's most important that you feel comfortable with yourself. >> thank you. >> what an inspirational evening. thank you all. jacqueline, we have copies of her books for sale. [applause] and we'll have, and you'll stick around to sign copies of your "proud" both for young adults and for adults. thank you all for being here. thank you, c-span. >> thank you.
