in portugal, jacques was lucky to have a job, at all. here, he earns 5,000 u.s. dollars a month, practically tax-free. that's more than three times what he'd make in europe. the construction firm jacques works for has hired three other portuguese, as well. it's expanding, and the economic refugees from angola's ex-colonial master are on board. >> generally, europeans, and of course, the portuguese, are highly educated and well versed in technology. and then, there's the language factor. in angola, it's quite simply easier to work with someone from a portuguese background. >> many of the europeans here get together at this beach club on thursdays. starting at eleven p.m., they can dance and party the night away. about half are from portugal. >> we wouldn't be able to afford this in portugal -- it would just be too expensive if you didn't have a job. but here, the friends and the weather are great! >> portugal and the euro debt crisis are 6 thousand kilometers away. us dollars are the currency of choice here. and ricardo sees his future here. he opened luanda's fir

[laughter] .. i challenge people to find this one. i never have, but that's the day that these guys swam into this first american base at nearly 200 feet which was a substantial debt even for a standard except they were going to stay there for three weeks, which was absolutely unheard of, and presented, possibly not even safe because who knew. so, you can see -- there's dr. bond, lesser andy anderson, dr. robert thompson, they have a doctor down there interest in further studies and keep an eye on things and diverse sanders tiger manning for an elevator takes them down to the deck and from there they have to swim freely 25 for 30 yards or so to get into the lab and i will explain in a minute how that worked but we wanted to play for you is the audio and one thing i saw early on is there's no neatly catalog charnel this was in people's doors and something like a case of an unmarked if anybody remembers who the real format these tapes have now been from a realtor real and digital cassette, so they ar

there is no coverage. >> al sharpton said -- jacques is right he goes after this. but they selectively choose what to turn in a false narrative, that's what happened here. we have want to tack the real problem. if you want to tackle racism, tackle it on all fronts where it exists, don't create a narrative where it's a possibility. >> my problem is this. if you feel that about jesse and al sharpton you must feel other people are exploiting it rather than deal with the substance, listen. rather than deal with the substance of the fact that america has a race problem. how come no one is saying that the punitive republican nominee mitt romney, what is your position on -- >> that is a dodge. >> no. >> that's a dodge. >> why haven't you asked romney this? >> sean: i have asked him about this. >> no one is asking him to give a speech on race. they ask obama candidate to do that. >> there are 49 kids in the weekend shot in chicago. ten of them dead, including a 6-year-old girl caught in the crossfire. >> al sharpton is not the policeman of america. >> sean: we got to run.

father was faced off against jacques chirac and nobody was expecting that so i think although we're not seeing those kind of opinions expressed in the mainstream media particularly here in paris a little bit more and countries like the united states because there is that idea that freedom of speech isn't harmful and that people except for the insane people can actually differentiate between a really rigorous open honest debate as controversial as a might be and murderous acts but here in for in france and i can speak for france because that's that's where i'm based now and i can also speak for canada because i'm canadian i know that you have these kinds of open debates about multiculturalism in the press is a very very difficult thing to do because there are so many lobby groups that just refuse to allow that for that kind of non politically correct debate because it's just not nice to say and hurt people's feelings but i think we should be able to have a very legitimate open honest discussion about paul about policies related to multiculturalism and i don't really see why people would
