had his own little secret black intelligence unit run by a washington columnist, a guy name john franklin carter who did domestic espionage work. this was not overseen by congress. eventually, part of donovan's funds as want budget expanded into the hundreds of millions and mar came from appropriated funds from congress, but even then, congress was not doing a lot of oversite on what he was doing overseaings. he was basically free to operate on his own. >> i wonder if you can say something about the sources you used for this book? for example, are all the oss archives available? where are they? do you think they are complete or do you think that some of them may have been deleted at some point? >> yeah. the good news is that all the oss documents have been declassified, practically all have been declassified. the bad news is that practically all the documents are classified because it runs in the millions and millions of pages. in donovan's own office at the kremlin, he had something on the order of 170 ,000 documents there under his control which took me about a year to go through. his personal

ray hennessey good black intelligence unit run by a washington parliament named john franklin carter who did domestic espionage work. this was not overseen by congress. eventually part of donovan's budget expanded into hundreds of millions or more came from appropriated funds from congress but even then congress wasn't doing a lot of oversight on what he was doing overseas. he was free to operate on his own. >> i wonder if you could say something about the sources used for this book. for example are all the oss archives available? do you think they are complete? they using some of it may have been deleted at some point? >> the good news is all the oss documents have been declassified. the bad news is practically all the oss documents have been declassified because it runs in millions and millions of pages. and oss's own office and i went through that material, at the kremlin he had something on the order of 170,000 documents that were under his control which took me about a year to go through. his personal papers from his log and other sources, letters to his family are at the army m

john anderson ran against jimmy carter. jimmy carter lost his bid for reelection. ross perot ran in 1992. george h.w. bush lost his bid for reelection. bill:bill clinton won the presiy with 43% of the vote. do not forget ralph nay de nadeo didn't score very high in the 2000 election but it was enough to mess up the florida count. if nader had not been in florida, it's likely al gore would have won florida an the presidency. >> it seems they're in many ways the spoilers. >> exactly. they can't do anything but mischief. i don't think anyone can conceive of a third party candidate coming to win the presidency in 2012, but if you did have one, and it was a very close race between barack obama and the republican nominee, it's possible that they could take enougenough votes off one or the other to change the outcome. >> you know what's so interesting, i guess if someone's really powerful enough, you could throw it into the house of representatives, a real serious third party candidate. its hard to think of that happening, but it is theoretically and numerically possible

carter. he was at parkland hospital in dallas when john f. kennedy died there. >> i heard the shots, wrote down in my notebook 12:33, sounds like three rifle. >> pelley: edward r. murrow hired pierpoint in 1948, and in a career that spanned 32 years, bob was most proud of his war reporting from korea. in the final episode of "mash," it is his voice you hear on the radio. >> this is robert pierpoint speaking to you. >> pelley: bob pierpoint's two great loves were news and tennis. one day on his way to match with president knickson's press secretary, news broke out so he threw on a jacket and tie and here is what viewers of his white house report never saw, the stuff of tv legend. and in fitting tribute to that legend, the pierpoint family tells us bob will be laid to rest in a suit jacket and tennis shorts. here in los angeles, they waited all night for something most of us take for granted. their story is next. >> pelley: finally tonight, it was a godsend here in the city of angels. this past weekend thousands got something that they could ne

think john kerry getting swift voted. carter and the iran hostage crisis.ough not everybody thinks assassinating a u.s. citizen without due process was a good idea. also, to the toppling of gadhafi. mr. obama's drawing down troops in afghanistan following a surge there and he's now taking credit for ending the war in iraq, which is a big reach. george bush ended the war in iraq in 2008 and we are now being kicked out of the country by the iraqi government, but hey, it's politics. never the less, despite these successes overseas, it isn't clear if foreign policy victories will help this president win a second term. if unemployment stays above 9%, it may be well about the economy, stupid, as james carville told bill clinton. a recent poll shows foreign policy's not a top issue on american minds these days. just 24% say foreign policy is extremely important. compare that to 54% who say the economy and other issues rank higher than foreign policy including unemployment, the deficit, health care, social security, medicare, terrorism, taxes and the size of govern

john conley, c, george h.w. bush. d, bob dole? who ran against carter.y one we threw in for everyone to make you feel good. feel good? >> yeah. >> bill: it's a tie. three to go. here is question number 3. the first televised presidential debate in history was in 1960 between richard nixon and john f. kennedy. >> senator kennedy, too often would rely too much on the federal government. on what it would do to solve our problems, to stimulate growth. >> i come out of the democratic party which in this century produced woodrow wilson and harry truman. the question is which point of view and which party do we want to leave the united states? >> mr. nixon, would you like to comment? >> i have no comment. >> bill: great clip, huh? first the bit. now, who was jfk's campaign manager for that election? a, his father. b, his brother, robert. c., his brother ted. d, adlai stevenson. cards up please the answer is b, robert kennedy. mccallum bolts into the lead with two questions to go! here is question number 4. michael dukakis hurt his campaign during a 1980 debate

it was the 1976 election with jimny carter and gerald ford, 16 years after john f.ennedy and richard nixon faced off in the first ones. >>> cnn in depth this week and we're taking a closer look at herman cain, his popularity is on an up swing with more good news in the polls. but comments he's made on the campaign trail can be described as unpresidential at worst pretty questionable at best. here are just a couple. a message to occupy wall street protesters and an explanation of his stance against appointing a muslim to his cabinet. >> would i be comfortable with the muslim in my administration? not that i wouldn't aappoint one, that's the exact transcript. i would not be comfortable because you have peaceful muslims and militant muslims. those trying to kill us. when i say i wouldn't be comfortable, i was thinking about the ones that are trying to kill us. if you are envious of somebody who happens to be rich that you call a fat cat, go and get rich instead of expecting them to walk outside of the office and write you a check. that's not the way america works. work

johns hopkins university. >> tonight, the search for the attacker and reaction from stunned students. >> hello, everyone. i'm vic carterm denise koch. here's what people are talking about. >> wjz is live now. derek valcourt with more on the crime and the concern on campus. >> vic, this is the alley where it happened right here on lovegrove street. happened about 1:30 saturday morning.

john, thanks for being here with us. how is the political climate here? how does the carterchard, nice to meet you. i think there are comparisons that could be made for our four hours of television, we've interviewed dozens of people about how people 50 years and older, and that's a huge section of voters, how they view the congress, the presidency, how they view the various issues, social security and medicare. things of that sort. the primary issues there. and this vote is very important. it's not a block vote. i think that's a miss conception that people think that because they are 65 years and older, they care about medicare, they care about social security. of course they do. but there are other, other issues from conservative to libertarian, liberal, and what have you. so i think they are comparisons here and i think the vote, the senior vote is going to be particularly important this time around, especially for obama, and may well be the deciders, as it were, as to who wins the election. >> but not a block vote. you covered a lot of different elections here when we co

. >> john fund, since he asked you to respond to the heritage foundation quote about that, respond. >> former president jimmy carterupported a national voter i.d. the rhode island legislature, which is 5-1 democratic in both houses, just passed a photo i.d. the sponsor was the only african-american senator in that state. the sponsor in the state house there was the african-american speaker of that body. this 63% of african-americans support photo i.d. at the polls. so, michael is chasing opposition which isn't out there. >> chuck, there's nothing wrong with the rhode island law. and if that were the law that's being pushed through these other states, we wouldn't be having this conversation. there are lots of forms of i.d. you can use in rhode island, not just one that people don't have. >> i've got to end it here. john fund, michael, both of you very knowledgeable on this topic and it's why i wanted you both on. thank you very much for coming on. >>> up next, how will wall street react to the new jobs numbers? we'll get a market preview next. plus, we're live in kabul. it's the tenth anniversary of the war in afgha

carter. don't go away. there's much more ahead on the >> pelley: tonight, we've got the hold world in our hands-- again. john blackberry blackout and what it says about how dependent we've become. new york's mayor delivers a surprising message to those protesters occupying wall street. seth doane is there. armen keteyian investigates shortages of life-saving drugs and discovers just who's hoarding them to jack up the price. >> they're out to make a profit. plain and simple. >> pelley: and they're not the walls of jericho, but major work is needed to keep the stones of the national cathedral from tumbling down. captioning sponsored by cbs this is the "cbs evening news" with scott pelley. >> pelley: good evening. on any given day here at the capital you will find members of congress walking the halls with their heads bowed-- not in prayer

john f. kennedy forward with the exception of jimmy carter who of course went on to a landslide defeat. congress' approval rating is even lower, 11%. less than 20% of americans think the country is on the right track. consumer confidence in august plummeted to its lowest level since 1980 and has remained relatively unchanged in the last month. unemployment at 9.1%, and in the security area in afghanistan the american embassy has been attacked twice in the last month. the former president of afghanistan was assassinated, and president karzai announced that negotiate with the taliban was futile. the war of words has increased between palestine and israel, and the dialogue with pakistan has become even more course in a critical part of the world. as if this were not enough we have the presidential elections. in a new abc news "washington post" poll, just 37% of americans thought and expect the president obama to win reelection in november 2012. republicans believe their stand to bear, whoever it is come would be the present, and a dwindling majority of democrats, 50%, expect the president

but i think the united states, as john points out, we have so many more issues on our agenda today than carterhad in 1977, 78, 79. and they are much more critical to the strategic national interests of the united states and the peace process. so if i were giving advice at least for the next year, and maybe for the next year and a half, i would not try and rewind or accelerate or engage in arab-israeli negotiations in any series way. in fact, i would tell the palestinians point blank, either you think about the concepts of 242 and 338 and to abide by them, or we will just not be there for you. and it's time that we use our influence, the bully pulpit, and didn't get caught up with so many people in this town that are devoted to this issue. i mean, i've made a living off of it for 35 years but i can't imagine how many others in this city have. we just have to meet other issues in the middle east that require our attention. >> well, i have a lot of sympathy with that view. i think, in a way, the high point for what i would view as a proper american policy came in 2002 when president bush essentia

carter. >> that is insane talk. i mean, the two wars she's talking about, one and two, were started by george w., she supported that, john, down the line, and in every instance, there she is mocking president obama for getting involved in a war indirectly from behind. >> look, chris, you correctly pointed out that those are not two of the most impressive of the republican candidates, but there is an argument and there was an argument at the time, not just on the crazy right, but in a lot of other places that you can make this case that this was a dangerous mission to have undertaken, that the costs might have been proven to be great. we can't argue backwards that it was a good idea in the first place. there are people who will say that american has overstretched its -- we should be fighting fewer words. there's a principle position on nonintervention grounds, on financial grounds, on a lot of grounds. you can make that argument. >> why didn't they begin to make the argument when it's an obama campaign? >> of course. of course there are many republicans who are inconsistent on this point and supported previous wars by rep

carter. he finished with just 8 carries. >> he's a phenomenal player. you have to use your formal player. we've got guys on this team that can do great things. it's that simple. under coach john harbaugh, the ravens have been nearly unbeatable when facing losing teams. the coach reflected on the state of his team today after time to consider what happened. >> we played bad on one side of the ball, especially, and we didn't play well enough on the other sides to overcome. that we take it as a team loss. you know,, we've been here before. we've been here from one game to the next. we've been here in seasons when we've been counted out. that's okay. i know our fans won't count us out and your players won't count us out. harbaugh said repeatedly through his press conference this afternoon, that they have to learn lessons from what happened last night and move on to prepare for the game there arizona, something he says he and his coaching staff already started doing this morning. regarding ray rice and 8 carries, harbaugh said he wasn't being pun pun -- punished for fumbling. also regarding the onside kick, harbaugh feels more convicted about that decision today than he did yester

carter evans. >> time for the help desk where we get answers to your financial questions. johnedit.com, manisha. >> he has three different portfolios, an 80/20 index fund. should he be aggressive or is it better off being more conservative? >> i'm thrilled at his age he has three different portfolios. that's wonderful. in the retirement account be aggressive, i love 80/20 mix. and assuming that third account is a taxable account. in that act, if he has funds that he may need to spend in the next one to five years, with those funds he would want to be a little bit more conservative and not take a lot of risk. we're talking cds, money markets but that gives him flexibility to be uber aggressive with the balance. >>> he has enough in his savings account to pay off his credit cards, but should he pay off the cards or keep the money in his account. >> you're paying way more interest on those credit card balances than you're earning in the savings account. i would suggest, take enough money out of the savings account to fund a sufficient emergency fund, six to 12 months of expenses i

john mccain, after the destroy him eight years prior they brought him back. they run you when you are old, tired, and have been there. they are predictable. democrats on the other hand kill their wounded. carter? who? mondale? al gore had to go live in a cave with a beard, out of penance. when you lose for the democratic party you are not forgiving. it is romney. it is his turn. if you want to predict based on history, it is romney, but one other possibility -- this could be a year, 2012, just like 1964, the year the republicans want whiled and picked goldwater. it could be one of those crazy phenomenal ears when they do something very non-republican, and of course i have prominences -- reminiscence. the item reality of primaries, the unpredictable popping up of candidates. none of the above phenomenons primary after primary. somebody keeps saying check, check, check. please stop. the weird phenomenon of donald trump been number one or two. stop. the weird phenomenon of hurricane -- herman cain moving toward number one. the mitt romney phenomenon where he cannot get past 25%. they really know this guy, and 75% of the republican party cannot say yes to mitt romney. is a tissue rejection? assis
