came along and in sixteen eighty nine john locke suggested that the state of nature might not be what hobbes described it might be different than other animals why because we have reason the ability to reason is what separates us from kwan fang now actually modern sure so is that of the whole kwan fang thing and all that true that that there is democracy in nature but nonetheless this is the evolution of democracy and what and what john locke wrote in his state of nature was men living according to reason without a common superior off on earth to judge between them and that is properly the uniquely human state of nature right now there is reason that idea of locks was taken by risotto and voltaire and and turned into the enlightenment a truly revolutionary period of time the end and this was when we saw the real clear definition of liberal and conservative the british were the conservatives the kingdom the liberals were the revolutionaries here in the united states and oddly enough you had a. americans who fundamentally were conservatives alexander hamilton john adams and you had amer

everything john locke said was a derivative of williams. his most revolutionary statements dealt with politics. let me read something he said about the church that is politically irrelevant. the church or a company of worshipers is likened to a corporation society or company of east india or turkey merchants or any other society or company in london, which companies may descend, divide, break into this prison, faction, and holly dissolved and break up into pieces. yet the city itself be not in the least measure impair discouraged. so the church is no different than any other entity in life. separate from the society itself, not integral. remember, this is a devout puritan. then he get even more. at the time, even those who disputed the right of kings enough that they fought a revolution against it still believe that the authority of government came from god. no member of parliament, even in the middle of the civil war argued otherwise. in america, even when the after being elected governor of massachusetts made an address to the free men an

like milton, a generation later, virtually every scholar that knows anything about these people john lockesaid was a derivative of volumes, but his most of original and revolutionary statements dealt with politics. let me read something he said about the church that's politically irrelevant. the church or the company is like the corporation society or company of the east india or turkey merchants or any other society or company in london which the companies may dissent, divide, break in the fashions and peel each other at all dissolve and break it into pieces and get the city itself be not in the least measure, so it was no different than any other entity in london separate from the society itself not -- remember, this is a devout. and calvinist. then he got even more the time even those who disputed him into king's what the fathi revolution against it still believe the authority of government came from god. no member of power even in the middle of the civil war argued otherwise in america after being elected governor of massachusetts made an address to the men and said it is just elected

john locke, voltaire, and david hume. these guys who critiqued the power of theocracy. it seems to me, if you can build on those kinds of ideas that you might be able to overcome the drag of fundamentalist beliefs, which i believe are retarding the economic and social development. and if you could give me your email, i would be very appreciative. [laughter] maybe now or later. >> now would be very hard. i have seen a lot of discussions about the future of egypt and being very worried about islamists ruling the country. i could be wrong. i do not have a problem admitting that. if you look at the history of egypt in the past, a couple of hundred years, egypt was colonized by the french people and hardly any egyptian speak french. well, if you look at other nations that were colonized by the french, probably they speak more french than error back off. the british people colonized egypt and also most of our people speak broken english as you can tell. and the shia, one religious example, they came to egypt to build the largest institute that spread their belief across our w

. >> san quentin president john not on lock down tonight despite a fight involving up to 200 inmates starting in the exercise yard, sent one inmate to the hospital. several others were injured in this scuffle. officials say the fight is under investigation and san quentin is on a modified program now. prisoners in cells victims' rights groups are outrainled the governor is allowing more convicted murderers to be paroled than previous governors. abc 7's nannette miranda has the story. >> 331 murders released in a year. >> crime victims calling on governor brown to release more detailed information conconvicted killers. the board approved 400 releases and the governor reversed only 71 decisions. that gives governor brown a higher release rate than two predecessors. the rate stands at 80% and governor schwartzeneggar denying freedom near a a quarter of the time and gray davis keeping most behind bars, letting only 2% go. >> under this administration it seems like the flood gates have been opened and just let them go free that. concerns us terribly. >> the rates may be different but resu

locks. they come to work to change the world. with our vision and leadership by john hepner, bob rice and bruce press, we're leading the country by example. it's an honor to have president obama here at master lock today to discuss the importance of keeping jobs right here in the united states of america. >> we have the right formula. we have the right ingredients and we have the right recipe to bring jobs back to this plant and to this country. so from now on, as master lock world changers. with that, join me in welcoming our president, barack obama! ♪ ♪ >> hello, milwaukee! it is good to be back in the great state of wisconsin. it's the closest i've been to ho i was thinking about getting on the 90/94 and just driving down to my house. thank you, deandre for that outstanding introduction. and for sharing your story. i can tell, though, deandre is a little shy. he doesn't necessarily like to get out in front of people. before i begin, i want to thank some additional special guestsr. milwaukee mayor tom barrett is in the house. your congresswoman gwen moore is here. y

john drew. and i got a great tour from the president of uaw local 469, mike bink. and finally, i want to thank master lock's master lock. i have to say, though, it brought back some memories. and i was thinking about my gym locker in high school. and you know, if you go into the boys' locker room in high school, sometimes it's a little powerful, the odor in there. so i was thinking about the fact that we weren't washing our stuff enough. and then i was thinking about as i got older and i kept on using master locks, i became an even better customer because i couldn't always remember my combination. so i'd end up having to have the lochsaed off and buy a new one. so i was giving you guys a lot of business. and now, as i was looking at some of the really industrial size locks, i was thinking about the fact that i am a father of two girls who are going to be in high school. and that it might come in handy to have these super locks. for now, i'm just counting on the fact that when they go to school, there are men with guns with them so -- but i'm actually here today because this company has been making the most

lock. because of you. over the last few years, it's become more expensive to do business in countries like china. meanwhile, american workers, we've become even more productive. so when john hepner was at the white house in january, he told me how it makes more business sense for master lock to bring jobs back home here to milwaukee. and today for the first time in 15 years, this plant is running at full capacity. and that's an example of what happens when unions and employers work together to create good jobs. today you're selling products directly to customers in china stamped with those words, made in america. and the good news is, this is starting to happen around the country. for the first time since 1990, american manufacturers are creating new jobs. that's good for the companies. but it's also good up and down the supply chain because if you are making this stuff here, that means that there are producers and suppliers in and around the area who have a better chance of selling stuff here. it means the restaurant close by suddenly has more customers. everybody benefits when manufacturing is going strong. so you all have heard enough about outsourcing. more and more c

example, in 2004, john edwards really picked up steam, but he only picked up steam after john kerry really had locked, similarly, here, we're seeing a situation where rick santorum is doing fairly well with primary voters while a lot of people at the center of the action are seeing a lot of his vulnerabilities. >> you raise an interesting point here, because all along, i've looked at the polls. this is what you can say about mitt romney. he has pretty consistently stied at this sort of higher level. and first it was herman cain, then it was newt gingrich, and now maybe it's rick santorum. they spike up from down low, they dominate for a while, but they can't hold it. what do you think? can they hold it? that speaks to two different dynamics. romney is a reluctant front-runner. eventually romney can become a bumper sticker. someone will make a lot of money off that. but he's got the money and organization to really withstand the various fluctuations. and this surge of support is followed by a fall in support, part because of going negative on him. and many of them can not sustain. i think it does spea
