that is restructuring markets, ich often means violence.finally there are some reports that the and drug trafficking organizations are moving stronger operations into central america. th is the quaen's nest of ms and 18th street. so there are a lot of sinners that developed. none of them are good. the wild card. i will take a minute about one ambitious gangster. nobody yet has hammered either any of these latino gangs anything rivalry. one gangsr named nelson tried to do that. many law enforcement offics think that he is a ms-13. very interesting and a mysterious figure. some officer felt he could have done that had he not been arrested and incarcerated on a federal drug trafficking charge and basically fallen off the map. i think i know where he is. but s record is also sealed. all right. all of this brings us back to bruce riordan is pith helmet. whatever happens 10 years from now, 20 years from now, as we saidarlier the job of dealing with latino street gangs as they exist in is going to be yours. there are reasons that i explore in some

towards the end of a a congressional seion in jul and thfirst week of august d throh the august recess in ich things staed out. i think th president's alrey accomplishedome of what he wanted by ju reenergizing the debate. yo saw today that senator baucus put a plan on the table. that's been long in comingut w it's out there for people see. so... but the stakes a huge for the prident. >> rose: so what does he have to do? >> you know, i think he needs to two things, really, he has to reenergi the debate with the amican public. i think he ha toemind people about what's in it f them. that hlth careeform passed by congress will add security to their liv, proce a system whe they know that theave access toffordable quality health cerage that they can't lose it at the whim of an insurance company, ey can't be discminated against if they have a pre-existing condition. but needs the als specific with the cgress. he's really probably speaking to two audiences, oneor the general public but also he's eaking to those members themselves ande has to tell themwhich is what i want to see in the bill." rose: th

>> it was quite easy t take on more debt because of the chang in the financial industry under ich the people who once loan you money a held on to your loans had a real interest in making sure that you are going to pay the loan back. that gradually gaveay to a differentet when banks would initiate loans, and then bundle them into a mortgage-backed security and sel it to someone else. th if someone defaulted, that was their problem. they got their commission, the transaction was over as far as they were concerned. that's a recipe for people trying to generateees for themselves by loaning money to anybody wh will borrow it. and so you saw people earning $35,000 getting loans to buy $750,000 condominiums, no questions asked. liars loans they were called. financial regulation is the onl y to prohibit that. i think we're on a path to implementi some regulations that will make things more like it was when i bought m first house. i had to have 25% done, there was no interest only or a.r.m.s. you have to have equity in the house. that was powerful incentive. >> the list of california radio pro

of last wk, moving from the cch republic and pola, the miile defense system, maybe enlisd russia to ichis going to be ke withoutussia and without china, any sanctions against irn are going to be more form than substance. >> lehrer: is this huge. >> i was mostl struck by the sense of urgency by the atmospherics of it the counies have worked together many, many years onhis issue and have been qte strong in some of their statements. nonetheless this is so of like a weoch you momen >>pparently based on u.s. intelligence which oba then informethe brits and the french. and the intelligence say we had apparently for many months. but what struck me was you don't write that check. yodon't go into this lel of urgency and even ultimatum a sarkozy d especiallyunless you can cash that check, unless there is something behd th check. so basically today they made a nch of threats. and sothat made me think why, what do w have in their pockets that makes them feel comfortable making tse threats. an basically ituggests to me thatomewhere in this creation of new sanctns regime,hey've got something. and it

kind of sanctions that would hurt in are the kind ofsanctions that would hut the population of iran, ichhas its own difficulties in ter of restrictg the amount of petroleum at the country imports. i mean, wh you're talking about is cutting people's heating oiln winter. and other su imposions on this banking syst. >> lehr: and that could be done by a multinatial... i don't see that happening becauses a matter of fact the frenchoreign minister dispared that particular sanction, perha unbeknownst to hiswn president. also, there' the sanction issue is rather irreleva because this particular anian regi doesn't put premiumn economic growth, ty put premum on strategic gain. so even if y manage to successfully iose a sanctis regime on tm, that i corceive and paiul. it is unlikely to change their funmental nuclear objectives. >> lehrer: do y agree with that, david? >> think that's right. one difficulty the fuel oil or galine sanction on them at very few people thinkf, what happenss whenhe irians urn to their next dr neighbor, the shi'a government in iraq and say "we'd like to have someasoline fro

intermountain healthcare, ich president obama mentione is ruby a visionary leader named brent mes, who was a biostatistician and s been an expert on studying ocomes for a very lontime. so wheyou bring that kind of expertise to the runni of a hoital system, it gets better. >> moyers: one of the big disappointments to a lotf people is th the white house seems to he made a deal, reportedly has made a dealith the drug industry, not tuse the wer of the government to negoate lower drug prices, or through medicare and medicai now i know younow something about negotiating folower drug prices, en you were at the wod health organization, right? right. >> moyers: tl me about that. >> it's a very complated busine. if you lk at three diseases, the three major kiers, hiv, turculosis and malaria, the onlyisease for which we have really good drugs isiv. and it's very simple, becae there's a market in the ited ates and europe. so what know is that market incentives to drive drug delivery are critical. we have to maintain them somehow, because if yodon't have market inntives, there are almo no malaria o

realolitics is the board takes the jury recommendation and they sit down with their 14 prizes, one of ich is public service prize. i am talking journalism prizes. but they look at the 14 stories and they, that they are picking and the juries have picked, and they will throw out what is that they kind of over ruled that the figure do not belong in the best stories of the year. i wouldn'tall that a political decision. i would call that decision of when we have this body of work for the year in front of us we want to make sure that the 14 stories that are the t exprsion of american journalism are the ones that are selected so i think that element of politics is gone but now you have a sittion where they don't worry any more about the publication getting 45 prizes. washington we know in 2003, the year that the 9/11 prizes were awarded thenew york times" won seven prizes and there wer only 14 including the public service prize. last year, in 2008, "the washington post" won the i think five and so you will probably see that more and more if the newspaper really has a ntastic year, more prices w
