there is not that skepticism around jeb bush. speaks spanish, he can talk about immigration from the ballast of being a conservative. >> rand paul seems very comfortable attacking chris christie every day if it's necessary. >> rand paul was not a senior figure until he did this high-profile long speech on the senate floor. he realizes that the way to get fund-raising attention, support is by making noise. if chris christie is being talked about as the front runner, then the way you get attention is by attacking chris christie. >> i think it's been very effective for paul in many ways and it's allowed him to separate himself from the rest of the tea party wing. >> one thing rand paul is focused on is conservative media and trying to build a profile there among the rush limbaughs of the world and that's a strategy we saw mitt romney try to employ with some varying degrees of success. but christie is sort of hated on that platform. so this is the kind of place where rand can go and actually get that message. >> they're playing the m

we are so thankful for jeb bush and his family, for then serving in our country. hey have been a blessing to us. we ask now that you give us perseverance, give us winsome -- wisdom, give us your guidance. in each of our own ways, we are leaders, whether it is on the soccer field or football field, whether it is in an orchestra or community or in public service. bless this food to our nourishment. we honor you, god. in jesus's name will, we pray, name, we pray, amen. >> you may now start your salad, but while you are eating your salad -- when we launched the foundation, our first project was the kemp legacy project. we were honored to have as part of that a kemp chair for political economy at the library of congress. mort is going to come introduce a video that we would like you to watch as you eat your salad. we appreciate mort dedicating so much time and effort to the kemp foundation and the legacy project. ladies and gentlemen, morten contracted -- kondracki. >> i am here to invite you to watch this video on the kemp legacy project. it consisted of an oral histor

early territory, head of the rga, republican governor's association, i think it adds pressure to a jeb bush, whether jeb wants -- somebody else controlling his timetable but i think that's what i've learned from this, fully comfortable. >> not slowing down scott walker, ted cruz, rand paul, any others looking at the more conservative wing. chuck is right, jeb bush and more mainstream moderate republicans conservative in their principles but more pragmatic, i should say republican who has to look at chris christie and see him preempt the field. >> that's what he's trying to do. the theory is i'm going to take slings and arrows about being too moderate anyway. i might as well take them bear hugging i'm the establishment kind of guy because i'm going to be that anyway. the question is chris christie in that clip says i don't put those labels on myself. we know voters -- other candidates in places like iowa, south carolina, new hampshire, will rick perry over the weekend said is being a conservative in new jersey like being a conservative in iowa? well, we'll find that out. i think that's sort

probably -- you have your establishment, only really two guys that occupy the space, chris christie and jeb bush. automatic establishment money. and i'm somebody who thinks that jeb is probably -- first of all, he is thinking a lot harder about this than people realize. and his only shot at the white house is if somebody named clinton is running on the other side. and he knows that. >> do you agree with me that jeb has a better chance of going the distance than chris christie? >> i do. i think he's more disciplined. i think he can straddle the fence and unite the party. then you have sort of the middle ground guys, the secretary teono would be there if christie falters. that is where scott walker occupies that space. he's the guy that i would go to vegas now and put ten bucks on because you can probably get him for 20:1 odds. then there is i think the tea party -- i know everybody is high on cruz. i just assume that he's more on the palin track where it's like it's so much -- he'll just burn out. where rand paul feels like he's built to last. >> beyond the three we talked about, jeb, chrischrist

somebody like jeb bush for sure. governors start out with an advantage. trying to knock out all of the senate ideological conservatives. rubio, rand paul, like a bowling ball sort of speak. he said it will be a governor. i think history has shown recently that that's the case. governors have a better shot, usually. barack obama was the exception to the rule. the democrats who got elected, bill clinton, jimmy carter governors, et cetera. you have to look at somebody like jeb bush a former governor or somebody like chris christie or scott walker. >> so much of the conservative energy right now going to defeating obama care. under more fire today. new polling shows a majority much voters believe it's not the federal government's responsibility to provide health insurance to americans. gallup finds 56% of american voters say it is not the government's job. 42% say it is. that's a 27 point net swing from 2008 when a majority of americans said the government should be involved in the country's health care. the white house continues to do everything it can do to

i'm are presented by folks like jeb bush. fans? are you an intern? [inaudible] she is the best at that. republicans in florida, especially south florida, understand that if you want to win, you have to embrace diversity and understand it. you have to represented. i'm a proud republican. no qualifiers. no labels. no subcategories. i don't want to be called a tea party republican. a moderate publican. amoss republican. a libertarian republican. i don't want to be told by my party who have appointed themselves the republican purity police that i do not along. i do not want to be called a rino. go ahead and call me a rino. that stands for republican that is inclusive not traction this. i just want to be a republican and focus on the things we agree on as a party. not the things we disagree on. i do not want to wage fights against republican second when individual districts and states. , crazy, but i would rather use our resources and energy beating democrats, not other republicans. mike lee can win utah. he cannot win in new hampshire. chris christie can

i think they need to find somebody like jeb bush where you have somebody that articulates a vision consistent with the base of the party but has a record of governing from the center or center right and jeb had done a fantastic job down in florida. i know you know his record very well. governor christie's record in new jersey is fair to mid. not a great record. not about job performance. not great on economic performance. he's consistently alienated key parts of the republican base like the national rifle association and other groups and organizations and i think that worked really well for him in new jersey with the new york immediate why. he's really loved. i think at the end of the day he won motivate the republican base which a candidate needs to do to win at least that's between history of republican candidates. >> james i'll give the last word on this. what about jeb bush? can he run, james, seriously? >> let me say, i agree with chris ruddy. i think this is kind of a henry kissinger, henry viii people sitting around a boardroom in new york. it won't resonate with the republican base. g

i think jeb bush would be the best candidate to change it. the question is, i am looking at that and people say, i don't want another bush. they ask bill clinton, who do you think would make a better president, your wife or your daughter? ok. i think the bush brand is rehabilitating and will continue for several reasons. he will not be dragged into a controversial issue, no matter what. guy he isu see the helping a wounded warrior or a child with malaria in africa. i think as george herbert walker becomes more frail, people remember what a good guy he was. a member of the greatest generation. i think there are certainly going to be issues with it. people ask should there be three members of the same family and the white house. contrast will actually benefit him. a lot of people don't note jeb bush. -- don't know him. his seriousness. people tend to be quite won thed. i think he elderly jewish republican vote on the upper east side of manhattan. i think there is a path, and i agree a governor is a much better candidate than a senator or somebo

it does give jeb bush a feeling, hey, there's an opening here. look at the reception. conservative credentials, can deal with tea party wing. that debate is going to take hold here. >> david gregory on sunday. >> nancy pelosi at an opportune time. talk about panic among democrats and the fact she obviously in many ways is an architect of the health care law herself. she's got to be feeling accountability herself. we'll discuss on sunday. >> the senate could be in play not only not -- no chance or less chance arguably of retaking the house, which was always a steep climb but the senate in play. that's why mary landrieu out there with fixes. thanks very much. see you on sunday. lets go to more about divisions between white house and congressional democrats. right now here for our daily fix "new york times" political correspondent jonathan martin and nbc white house correspondent kristen welker joining me from the white house lawn. first to you jonathan martin, the other jonathan martin, we'll get to that at the end of this. the aptly named jonathan martin. lets talk abou

i think it was jeb bush tweeted that, and then he retracted it pretty quickly.d eat my shoe if you could name a bush that ever even walked into a public school. that's another story. >> better start facing those loafers, matt. this is melting. several bushes actually went to public school. but even if every bush went to a private one, it's not like they're saying only they get to go, which is why matt's faulty logic wilts like his last three films. thank god shoes don't count as a carb, matt. it won't ruin your diet when you eat it. which brings it to alec baldwin, a pudgy reactor always on meltdown. fresh from an anti-gay rant, he lost it again this weekend. >> you're the one that almost hit my wife with the microphone in the face? >> no. i honestly did not. >> you want to apologize to her on camera? i asked you a question? i asked you a question. okay. get the [ bleep ] out of here. >> i didn't do anything wrong. i did nothing wrong, alec. >> he's as mentally disheveled as his hair. especially crew for reasons as cowardly as they were vile. i'll defend him. fo

where was jeb bush. did jeb bush go to virginia? >> no. >> jeb bush has broad appeal. he has broad appeal in pennsylvania. that doesn't mean he would carry if he were the presidential candidate but he has broad appeal. those republicans didn't show up. chris christie didn't leave the state to campaign for ken cuccinelli. >> no. and would he have? >> you've got a group of republican governors who are social conservatives but they don't emphasize. cuccinelli made that the heart and soul of his campaign. when scott walker and rick snyder and john kasich runs for re-election, they are not going to be talking about social issues. >> howard, i want to talk to you about the mac. if things go that way, terry mcauliffe is going to be governor of virginia. i just said that. a seasoned democratic operative and campaign genius, what do you think the implications are for that in 2016 and also what kind of job is terry mcauliffe going to do as governor of virginia? >> i think he's going to do a very good job. i've known terry for a long time through the clintons. has he an enormous

i think jeb bush said it very well not long ago.id when your party is perceived as being anti-women, anti-gay, anti-minority, pretty soon the room's empty and that kind of intolerant attitude, at least by the leadership in the republican party, i mean, my mom and dad are still republicans and they're very good, decent people, and a lot of republicans are. but the leadership of the the party, as you know, chuck, has just gone in a direction that's out of control. and i just didn't feel comfortable there anymore. i mean, the way my mom and dad raised my three sisters and me was to be decent to other people, be kind to people, be compassionate, and i just don't see that in today's republican leadership and that's why i'm so much more comfortable as a true democrat. >> interesting you brought up jeb bush. if this were his republican party, would you be comfortable being a republican instead of a democrat? >> well, maybe even more so his father. again, to dwoet quote my friend, jeb, i think he said also that in today's republican party h

gerri: this is a jeb bush initiative.ve some republicans and conservatives that don't even like it. >> absolutely. >> is a look at us this going forward, where ithis all going. they don't want to do this despite the fact that they get money for implementing these standards. >> i think what we have here is the government in full retreat intervening in the k-12 education with the no child left behind and now the governmentt the federal government is pulling away and saying that you take this football and that is what this common core is is a voluntary state led iniiative in the politics are state politics, which i wouldagree with. >> i feel like ths was all cooked up in a high-level executive suite with bill gates and folks who thought that they knew what was best for all of us. i have big questions about whether it really meets the needs of individual students. but i'm still reading about this. and you've written a book on it. wht you say? >> i think there is something that could happen that would be very helpful for every

you said i'm starting my campaign to get jeb bush to run right then.t conversation. >> that was early. i don't want to remember that. can we skip over that one? >> we can skip that. i recall some things from our conversation. great to see you guys. >> coming up on "new day," alec baldwin, not running for the president, not yet. he's on the defensive over accusations he used an anti-gay slur. will he really retire to stay out of the public eye? the reaction and what he's saying. i get bonuses even working part-time. where i work, over 400 people are promoted every day. healthcare starting under $40 a month. i got education benefits. i work at walmart. i'm a pharmacist. sales associate. i manage produce. i work in logistics. there's more to walmart than you think. vo: opportunity. that's the real walmart. did you run into traffic? no, just had to stop by the house to grab a few things. you stopped by the house? uh-huh. yea. alright, whenever you get your stuff, run upstairs, get cleaned up for dinner. you leave the house in good shape? yea. yea, of cours

>> no. >> rose: george bush i mean jeb -- >> jeb? you probably heard the same things i have heard. i would love jeb to run. jeb was a tough strong pragmatic leader in florida, i don't know that he is going to do it. >> rose: he did it in 2012. would he have gotten the nomination? >> yes here is the ironic thing. we were all saying in 1994 when jeb first ran, if he last name wasn't bush he would never be there. >> rose: right. >> we were saying in 2012, if his last name wasn't bush, he would be president of the united states right now. >> rose: that's true. >> i mean, history, you talk about, you talk about a cruel fate, je jeb bush if the last wk of his campaign against walk childs in 1994 had gone differently, and pummelled jeb the last week, just really tough and quite frankly really demagogue academic campaign ads saying he was going to gut social security as governor of the state of florida if jeb responded differently and won that week, jeb would have been president in 2,000 instead of his brother. >> rose: what is the right path on foreign policy for the republican party? a.

i don't think -- i think the chances of jeb bush running under 10%.e's intrigued by it, he would love to be president,, but i think there are just some family issues that don't relate to his last name. >> you think he could win the nomination? >> i think that ted cruz has redefined the term extremism in the republican party. and i feel like with senator mcconnell, i thought it would be like a gym bunny kind of thing. they get along very well. >> and ted cruz is helping him to get better. >> chuck, our time is up. you'd think that he can win the nomination? you think that republicans, donors and voters and everyone could look at him and say that he could win the white house? >> i don't know, and i think that his supporters will talk about this. he could run to the left on some of these issues and they're obviously ways you can picture how the democrats of work. and i think that that's the biggest leap, how to get the conventional donor and he was a big new york republican financier and he is trying to enter their skepticism. and so i guess that's why d

florida is showing she's ahead of jeb bush.g that she's still -- her brand is holding up even as democrats get drug down other than in a place like colorado. >> okay, sure. but it's still so far out that the only thing these polls are measuring is name recognition. so, you know, i don't put a lot of stock in these early polls in swing states and i think that there's a lot of time between now and the end -- >> oh, don't give that answer. that's the copout answer. that's the copout answer. all republicans are going to get measured as to how well they perform against hillary, are they not? fair or unfair? >> but we have a great batch. i think all of our governors are going to put up a good fight. >> do you think marco rubio should be worried about re-election more than the presidency? >> i think he's doing an okay job so hard. i think he's in a good position going into 2016. >> i've got to stop it here. we tried to get through a lot of stuff. it's been a busy week. you guys were short and punchy, i was not. we're right back with m

that is what jeb bush said when i was with him. mitt romney got 27% of the latino vote.he percentage of latino voters is increasing and the percentage of white voters is decreasing. i know that can be scary to some people. let me give you the good news and bad news. the bad news is that we have you surrounded. the good news is, we come in peace. it will be very hard for any candidate to get into the white house without a decent showing of latino vote. 20 some percent is not a decent showing. republicans need to win back some of that if we ever expect to go back inside the white house. the inside of the white house is nicer than the outside. republicans not only have to motivate the base. we have to grow the base. republicans need to make the tent bigger we will undersell standing under an umbrella. i'm a woman. i'm an immigrant. i miss panic. -- i am hispanic. i am a republican. i am an endangered species right now. i often get asked how can you possibly be a republican? why? explanation lies in my personal history. my family story shapes my views. i was born in nicaragu
