>> jeremiah in st.the thought that obama hasn't done enough to sell this to the public when the man is on tv, wall to wall every single day is beyond me. what are you seeing in st. louis? >> well, dennis in the show-me state, i think some people are starting to notice a pattern, where in this administration, it's like a jeopardy game. the answer is always big federal government with big deficits and big spending. some voters are fine with that, and others are saying, whoa, this is foot and not debated enough? >> somehow lauren, people are beginning to realize you're not just raising taxes on the rich when you start talking about penalizing small businesses so it costs one-third of their annual earnings if they don't cover their health care employees, suddenly that tax is going way beyond the way beyond. >> i've talked to a lot of small business owners in the last few weeks concerned about how this  is going to affect them. you talk about the stock market rising but that may not continue if some of thes

flicks have focused on this original material or films recently other than the one you mentioned, jeremiah johnson? >> that's a really good question. a great scope for it. i think a lot of the stories of the individual writers would make great films, and their friendships, because they really did -- one thing you see that margaret walker wrote about her experience in chicago, she had just graduated from northwestern. she basically had to lie about her age to get on to the writers' project, but she had been sort of a poet, and this working with richard wright, really started to write differently, about people that she knew and more straightforward and social realist terms. so, it did come out? fiction later. a woman in minnesota wrote about women that she knew, basically a women's group in st. paul, and whose stories have never been told. she wrote a novel on based on that called "the girl." it's about a young woman caught up in a bank heist, and that would be a great film, i think, too. but i haven't seen one made from that yet. >> were the guides actually an inducement to tourism? did tou

better. >> how has jeremiah changed over the last few months? >> 'cause they taught me how to behave and how to sit down and listen to the teachers and stuff. >> actually learning how to do music and take that further in school and every day life. >> reporter: 13-year-old brianna smith was bringing home fs from school. claire net now has her hitting higher note and better grades. >> what teaches me is that i know that by me playing in the band is -- i have fun doing it. >> reporter: the fun suspect just here but here, too. >> okay. 10 to the second power. >> reporter: program co-founder allison reinhardt helps make even math something to smile about. >> all of our kids have gone up a letter grade in mathematics and language arts. >> reporter: a success rate worth bragging. >> i see only like one kid who came here who wasn't really interested and changed his mind. he is actually to our band captain right now. he is doing the number one kid in my program. >> reporter: that would be tuba player terrence knockham, who loves the lesson he is now teac

for kids like 9-year-old jeremiah russell who first picked up a trumpet seven month as go even riding program bus 20 minutes is an exercise in discipline. h his mother sees the transformation. ever since in the band he has been a better child. academically as well as his behavior better. >> reporter: how has jeremiah changed over the past few months because of this? >> behavior. how to sit down, listen to the teacher and stuff. >> actually learning how to do music and take it to school and every day life. >> reporter: 13-year-old brianna smith was bringing home fs from school and clarinet has her hitting higher notes and better grade. >> what keeps me coming is that i know that by me playing in the band is, i have fun doing it. >> reporter: the fun isn't just here, but here too. program co-founder allison reinhardt helps make even math something to smile about. >> a lot of kids have gone up a letter grade in mathematics and language arts. >> success rate worth bragging. >> one kid who came here wasn't really interested. it changed his mind. he is actually a band captain right now. >>

i think the lesson learned for the white house is, and they should have learned this from the jeremiah wright story during the campaign, is any story about race is going to be catnip, if not worse for the media. >> are you shocked? i know you're a columnist, you can opine much more freely and jeff is a straight reporter, but aren't we all surprised by the outward statements being made by people on the radio, you know, the names rush and beck, the harshness of it? >> well, look, i think there's a larger backdrop to this, which is that it's not only about our racial past, it's also about our racial future. we're well on our way to becoming a country where white people are going to be a minority by the middle of this century, and i think that is scary and unsettling to a lot of people. >> jeff, is there any way to analyze whether some of this is purely political, meaning the somewhat kumbaya aspects from last fall is somewhat frightening to the right especially? >> i think that anybody that would have thought of issues of race were transcended, well, not really. if you go out to a lot of

we had known he had been in the church of jeremiah wright but didn't know about his racism until thepaign, and what is obama's response? he gives a speech on race, another teachable moment, in which he describes racism to everyone, white workingclass, african-americans, jeremiah wright, his own grandmother, except himself and he stands there hovering above it all, teaching us the ways of tolerance and brotherhood. look, he may be a great president or a lousy one, but when he acts in this way, stands above the fray in a a patronizing and condescending way instructing us on the ways of the world, i find him insufferable. otherwise, i'm sure he's a nice guy. bret: we know that sergeant crowley is going to speak later. if they both do, you will hear them on fox. >> well, look, i'm a little more charitable than charles is toward obama in this case. look, he made a mistake. he acted, you might say, stupidly, by -- which he accused sergeant crowley of doing, by getting into this at all. he clearly had racial profiling in his mind as gates apparently did, and his immediate reaction was white

sean: i think he is jeremiah wright and bill ayers. >> i do not think you can say that. sean: no? that church for 20 years. i think you are wrong. i think he hid from the american people who he is. >> absolutely. >> sitting in a church like that for 20 years and in not having an effect on you, and bill ayers, , on -- and it's not having an effect on you, and, come one. sean: it is ok to hang out with a guy who was bombing the pentagon and capitol. wait a minute. he sat on boards with him. he gives speeches with him. and he had meetings and the guy's -- in the guy's house. >> in sixç months' time, he has led us down the road to socialism. >> putting humpty dumpty back together, because they have expended so muchç energy to create him in the first place. he is going to rely in the coming months on the internet to try to turn it into a campaign. sean: his is more than a campaign. it is also a smear -- it is more than a campaign. even john kyl. fox, rush. >> it is time to fight. that is all i can say. the thing is is that we have been intimidated, and they are bullies. they are just

sean hannity's advice, not that i was offering it -- you're laughing -- but i felt the issue of jeremiah wright, bill ayers, the radical associations, i thought they were very important because they revealed a part of the president's character that i believed needed deeper analysis. the president weighed in on this cambridge police department issue is professor gates and he said the police "acted stupidly." thomas sowell had a great column today basically reaffirming if you sat in that church for 20 years you probably would have that rush to judgment. in retrospect do you think maybe it was more important than people thought and you should have brought it up more? >> i don't -- i think people were aware of that situation. it was very well publicized and very well covered. look, we were in the midst of an economic tsunami as you know. the stock market dropped 700 points in one day. i think most people's attention were on the economy and also the situation as regards to iraq. and i believe we -- believed we would succeed there. i think those were the major issues. but i understand your poi

glenn: church groups, i'm guessing it is your grandma's church or jeremiah wright's church, i'm not sure. does he refer to it as an army or troops in the book? >> he refers to them as troops an soldiers. glenn: america, here is what i want you to understand. when you're talking about overwhelming the system, ask yourself, are you overwhelmed right now with what is going on? is john conyers overwhelmed with what is going on when he says "what difference does it make? i can't read it in two days, so why don't i just sign it?" isn't that a a sign that the system is overwhelmed and doesn't work? well, why would you want to overwhelm the system? why would wade rathke say hey, there's a lot of benefits out here, and we just got to get everybody onboard for these benefits? why would you do that? it is called the chow ard and piven strategy. it is the cloward and piven strategy. this is important you understand what it is. here it is in a nutshell. >> the cloward and piven strategy, richard cloward and frances piven advance their strategy to end poverty in a may 2, 1966 article. chow ard piven s

jeremiah in st. louis, please tell me no. >> if you are a blues fan, come out to st. louis in weekend. they have some great stuff. on the jobs market, whether they got what we are paying for, i would say our local job market is lousy. we've lost about 47,000 jobs since the recession began and we've lost them across a whole wide range of industries, manufacturing, construction, anheuser-busch, one of our storied companies lost about 1,600 jobs by my count. and monsanto lost about 6,000 jobs, people were shocked and surprised. big challenges ahead. >> when a company makes layoffs, it's because business is down. it's not a tragedy. i'm sorry for people who lose their jobs, but that's what companies are supposed to do. >> are we sure the first stimulus package worked? we're waiting for evidence to see if the first go-round produces results we are after. we are going to hang back and see what happens. >> should we have another stimulus? of course not. >> i can't answer that. i have no idea if we see the evidence that the first one works. we'll sit on the sidelines and see.

the reverend jeremiah wright has been banished. are they pushing on the outside the previous generation of african-american leaders, including yourself? >> no, he meets with african-american men, he meets with the black caucus. i think we want to engage more fully with him because there is a lot of unfinished business, and i think in time, his disposition is to address the issues that we feel most acutely about, more meaningfully. >> what about you? >> well, at some point in time, we will meet. i was very impressed with his speech in new york just this past week, and he acknowledged that there is the issue of structural inequality, and he had to overcome it with superior motivation. but he has not only superior motivation, but a stress of equality. in these deep, dark areas where plants have closed and jobs have left and tax bases have gone down, first class jails where jobs are leaving, there is a policy which is not going to happen, but that is his challenge. >> let's discuss the challenge further, but as we do so, let's go back

cindy back again to respond to jeremiah saying, i agree with you about getting social security and disability benefits that don't deserve it. i would like to know how in the world they got it. all right. that is just some of what you are saying there on my blog. we also are hearing from you by way of a phone message. take a listen. >> angela unger, i'm from florida. it is a bad, very bad idea for us to have government-run health care, very bad idea. i work in the health field. so i can see where it is not really good for americans. >> this is nelson solano from stuart, florida i believe the more i hear about this issue about the health care reform, the more important it is that we get it through. too many people are not being covered by health care benefits and we are the only country in the western world. we need to catch up to the rest of the country notice western world and have a health care plan for all americans. >> all right. some of your comments about health care reform. so remember, president obama will be taking to the air waves wednesday. you can watch that live here on cnn at 9 p

jeremiah says about the health care reform issue, the problem i have is this is the last thing the countryust need to take some initiative if they're not already and support themselves and give us hard-working taxpayers a break. and then eva said, i'm so thankful i have insurance with the company that i work for. i wouldn't know what to do if i didn't. and then on my blog, let's see if i can get this going here. uh-oh. this is probably operator error here. we will give you some blogs on as soon as possible. we thank the nice folks regularly submitting their information. i told you it was operator error. here we go. we have arash, saying the united states needs health care reform but i support obama's plan only as a first step towards universal health care, which is what the country really needs. and richard responds to him saying, it seems only people who are going to be taxed are against it. and then mike weighs in as well saying, arash, you have the biggest draw bak to president obama's plan right on the money. money and profits for private hci companies. they have been taking us for a r

what about jeremiah? thates the teaching of the bible. stuart: how about -- what is it, mark 20, verses 1-16, a worker goes out, for an hour, earns one dina rirch. another guy goes out for the whole day and he gets the same thing. they say it's not fair. they go to the boss of the vineyard who says it is fair. it's my vineyard, i decide what's fair. that, sir, is in the bible. >> as is whatever you've done to the least of these you've done to me, which is what jesus said in matthew 25. stuart: i think he was referring to something different there from unionization, if i'm not mistaken. >> what? stuart: i think he was not referring to unionization, card check or redistribution. >> he was referring to how the least of these among us are taken care of, of treated. that's what he was referring to. and the old testament, stuart, is full of delivering people from poverty and delivering people from oppression. stuart: stewart, you know, i think we've broken new ground. i think this is the first time on a major news network that two people have g

. >> the president -- look, this is reminiscent of the jeremiah wright controversy. it hurt him, but he managed to rise to the occasion and deal with it. now, i think he can do that here. i think he started on friday by coming to the briefing room. he's going to have them both up to the white house and there's a lot the white house can do with a meeting like that. and who knows what else the president does going forward about this, but i think it's possible, i think it was a misstep on his part, but i do think he can correct it. i think that's bad. that poll number is bad. that's not what you want. but i do think the president can do a lot of things to correct that or change it. >> i fear we will have to await the arrival of the next president who can apologize for barack obama on this as he so repeatedly does about previous presidents. >> part of the tension here, i've been in my house and had cops come in response to an alarm. i think it reveals something about the nature, anxiety of being black and dealing with cops. you want to say yes, sir and help them if they

there was that history with reverend jeremiah wright.e played down the national day of prayer compared to president bush. how does this compare to his meeting today? >> quickly on that national day of prayer -- the white house feels as if president bush elevated that day above the previous level. on this meeting, the white house treats it as a head of state visit. of course, there is a religious component when you meet with the pope. what i have heard it is -- is he has grown up in the art of catholic teaching. -- arc of catholic teaching. the president has said that that has been something that has motivated him in his personal life and politics. however, he has not become very conspicuous in terms of his religious observance. he says, over time, they will find a community church in the city. megyn: we are seeing the president arrived in an historic moment. do we have sound? can we listen in? we have sound, but no one is mic'ed up. bill: what a great day for them. megyn: meeting with heads of state, trying to iron out differences betwee

he says he thinks the president was influenced by his relationship with reverend jeremiah wright. >> last question on arrest of louis gates he was more animated, he came more alive, more passionate on that last question in chicago about the arrest and calling the cops ÷ there's a -- an undercurrent. i think obama is largely misunderstood by a lot of people. i think his association in his young life and early adult life mattered, the people that mentored him matter. we are finding out this guy has a chip on his shoulder, he's angry at this country, he's not proud of it. >> that's not all rush had to say. he harsh words for the media. you can watch the full interview tonight at 9 p.m.. >>> another fox news alert. passengers on american airlines flight 1937 are breathing a sigh of relief. the plane took off from logan international airport this morning but returned to boston after smoke was detected in the cabin. emergency crews were standing by as the 757 landed safely. none of the 185 passengers or crew were injured. the cause of the smoke is being investigated. >> president obama isÑ
