did john edwards know where you were going? >> yes.e didn't know exactly where we were, but he knew about the money and he knew about the sources. >> reporter: but edwards' wealthy campaign operative fred bar baron, now desizedeceased, claie idea was his idea. b the government says baron spent thousands of dollars, including an envelope filled with $1,000. >> looking over the bay. >> reporter: suddenly, the middle class youngs were living like kings, with baron footing the bill for this mansion in california. >> we were living in mansions, flying around in jets. it was like falling down a rabbit hole. >> reporter: the indictment lays out just how the money was spent. to keep hunter away from the attention of the media and in the lap of luxury. there were pricey flights for hunter on chartered jets, including one for $29,000. payments for trips to florida, colorado and california, a $59,000 bill for a rental property. and, in just one month alone, the government claims $180,000 was spent on keeping hunter out of the public eye. at the t

john kerry is one of my favorite people. i really like the guy but it shows you how far the spectrum of our political discourse shifting of the course of about 15 or 20 years, and house or deconstructed our sense of what government could do or should do for people that came. now that addresses the first observation that moderate republicans 20 years ago were in fact more extensive in their social agenda than president obama. that may be a fair point. what should we do in answer to simon's first question? get out there, participate. there are people, i don't want to name names but people say it really good things in the political world who deserve a lot of support who are articulating the different agenda. but even if it's 180 degrees, get out there and participate because citizen activism is good, and i will end by being bizarre -- declined comment about the tea party. even though i disagree with virtually everything they say of substance, it is grassroots politics, and that is what changes america. it's not politics. i used

and the person that we are honoring today is john osaki. now you know, when you meet john, you might think he is privileged. the japanese youth counsel was a grass roots organization in japan town created by jeff mory. john was actually a participant in the program. he came up and i got his first summer job? gcyc. he has worked in early childhood development. substance abuse prevention. they have expanded the range to include college access. substance abuse. youth employment and youth leadership. just to give you a sense of how many people are served there are over 8 thousand children from all /*eugt ethnic backgrounds. they help over 3 thousand youth to be the first to go to college. they put over 2 thousand youth a year to work through employment programs. we have to increase that to 20 thousand. his program as in many ways, revolutionized the way youth are employed in san francisco. the organization is often called upon by leaders and city government to implement now programs. they are established by governor mayor gavin newsom. but beyo

who is john chapman? my favorite answer, he's the guy that murdered john lennon. that was mark david chapman. in the end, i concluded, and i say this in the book, that johnny appleseed might be the best known american about who most americans know nothing real at all. i should add also that thanks to john and his firm, all of that polling data, including pages and pages of demographic breakdowns now in the possession of this museum and education center, which is exactly where it belongs. there was also the sheer mystery of it all as i tried to do the book. thanks to the whole host of researchers, including florence wheeler who finally named down the chapman genealogy. we had the hints of john chapman. we know where money was born. we know more or less where and when he died. although a case can be made that whoever interned is not john chapman. we have promissory notes, we even have the wonderful trading post back in war and pennsylvania that shows chapman purchased, quote, two small histories shortly after crossing the alleghenies with his brother in early 1799.

joe johns is in winston salem, north carolina where john edwards appeared in court today. i spoke with him earlier. >> hi, eliot. well, this was a long day for john edwards and certainly one of the most extraordinary for him and one of the most extraordinary in north carolina politics and perhaps in american politics. this was a guy who was one of the top three contenders in 2008 for the democratic nomination for president and indicted on six counts relating to his activities during that election. so what we had are six counts ranging from conspiracy on one hand and a number of accepting illegal campaign contributions and there was a false statement charge tacked on at the bottom. the information came out here on the docket in winston salem, north carolina, and that's where john edwards showed up this afternoon to face a judge. he came outside after that and talked to reporters for just a minute. he didn't answer any questions outside the court. inside the court he answered only a few and the judge imposed some conditions on him and set him free on his own recognizance. so

john?re to carry over through the presidential campaign. poppy harlow, thanks so much. >>> so perhaps the president can sell the auto industry bailout as a success story but he still have to defy history to win re-election. not once in the modern era has a president won a second term with an unemployment rate above 7.2%? and you will not find an economist who thinks it will drop even close to that number by the time president obama asks for your vote next year. so is he doomed to just one term? let's ask two people who understand the politics of the economy as well as anyone. the former two-term michigan governor jennifer granholm and political columnist joe klein. governor, to you first. listen to the president out of the box here. he has a tough job. unemployment ticked up again today. the recovery is very fragile. the president is trying to tell the american people it would be worse if not for me. >> there are still some headwinds coming at us. lately it's been high gas prices. caused a

to this card and which by then it was run by john barton son, john julie. i know it is a bit off-putting, but i will send you a picture. the delegates spent three hours here. they admired the trees and shrubs that have been collected from all 13 states. wherever they turn the basically saw yet another specimen from yet another part of the country. it seems america's entire flora was assembled here, from the trees that were collected far of north to the flowering shrubs the william had collected in florida. years they saw the trees and shrubs from the 13 states thriving together, branch is intertwined. today's letter on monday they met again to vote on the so-called plan, the connecticut plant -- connecticut plan was a compromise which suggested that the house of representatives should be based on a proportionate representation. in the sec each state should have equal votes. they had previously voted on the connecticut plant and dismiss it. but to everybody's astonishment this time around the voting took a surprising course. three delegates switched their vo

that's the john ensign scandal. in both of those cases the number two house republican eric cantor says essentially pray for r for their families. let the constituents decide their fate. who am i to say? fast forward to today. the day after democrat congressman anthony weiner of new york acknowledges his own indiscretions. they amount to sending compromising pictures of himself to women on the internet and engaging in sexually explicit chats with women online and lying to cover it up. yes, he definitely lied as far as we know there was no actual physical adultery nor is there political hypocrisy here. antmy weiner has never campaigned on the basis of his superior family values and other people having bad ones. he's never demanded anybody resign for having had an afare or having some sort of online indiscretion. so, congressman cantor what should happen to any weiner? what should happen to congressman anthony weiner? should we pray for his family? is this not for us to say? >> i think it is up to congressman weiner a

in the late '70s, she met john service and his wife. after being allowed to the confidential oral history in 78, she resolved to write his book. she has since given talks on cambridgeshire national archives to harvard, just to mention a few. she has received great reviews, and chief among them, the 2010 award for distinguished writing i've the american academy of diplomacy. i think it's a fitting tribute to lee, as well as to john service. we're going to have each panelist to make a 20 million -- a 20 minute presentation, and after that we hope with time for q&a and followed by books on. and we will start with doctor caplan. dr. lawrence kaplan has been the u.s. missile defense agency historian since 2003. prior to that, he served as a status join with the u.s. army center of military history in washington, d.c.. and as a staff historian as the u.s. army artillery center. he holds ph.d in american history from kansas state, an m.a. in american history from ohio state, and a ba in history from ohio university. his book, "homer lea: ameri

john, can you help us out and help the parents at home?t are some warning signs parents can keep an eye out for. >> jon, that's such an important question. parents have to be engaged in their children's lives to spot the red flags. >> jon: and what would those be, john? such as? >> for starters, jon, poster board, magic markers, that type of parafa nail that can be indicative that they have aspirations to run for student council. [laughter] >> jon: so even student council is bad? >> well, it's a gateway office, jon. [laughter] >> jon: john, i have a friend. i want to talk to you about him, a teenager. his son is a teenager, recently turned sullen and combative, and he's quite secretive. >> well, lucky him, john, he's okay. a time to worry is when your child becomes suspiciously extroverted, if he's suddenly fond of corny jokes or likes to walk around the dinner table shaking hands and asking, what's good here? what are we eating? when the neighbors bring a baby over, does he kiss it repeatedly on the cheek over and over again looking for t

as you know, john.ally now has -- responsible for cutting medicare and for doing things to i would argue end up rationing care to seniors. if we don't change medicare, this is what medicare is headed right now. it's one of the reasons medicare was cut by over half a trillion dollars through obama care. what i've talked about in the past is changing medicare in a system -- well, let's just say identical to how medicare part "d," the prescription drug program, now functions. i don't hear democrats saying we're theiring seniors off a cliff because medicare part "d" is a program that subsidizes seniors premiums to go out and purchase private health insurance for drugs today. that's how medicare part "d" works. it works well. seniors like it. guess what else, john, it came in 41% under budget since it's been in effect. why? because seniors are engaged in choosing the insurance that fits them best. >> you mentioned your position on social security. you lost your seat in part because you supported president bu

mitt romney, john huntsman from utah and tim pawlenty from minnesota. all of them are very strong in their own degrees among republicans. and then you have several interesting others. michelle bachman from minnesota. >> newt gingrich had a following. >> helps on a two-week vacation from his presidential campaign. but i don't think it's any weaker of a field -- i was thinking back to the first campaign i wover covered in 1999 in iowa. that was june 13 of 1999 when george w. bush made his first campaign visit. he was the governor in the field but there were several other people and that wasn't particularly a strong field except his last name was bush. i think this field is fine. there's been hankering for governor mitch williams to get in. haley barbour. >> on the economy do the republicans have to have ideas, plans or sit enough just to beat up on obama? >> i think it's enough for now to beat up on obama. after all, it worked for obama when he was run for president. when you're a candidate you can say things. so at this point i think republicans cannot o

and jim wanted his story told and he met john berendt one time only and then john berendt approached him about it doing the book. that is how that came about. >>host: did you make any contributions to the book? were you interviewed? >>guest: let me go back in time. about the movie that is an easy question. about the book? i don't think i had any impact on the book. >>host: what did you find most frustrating about the book? >>guest: the most frustrating this a few portions of the book is the author's world, the world of president assad not jim williams. i find that frustrating. >> what about what he saw and what john berendt was about? >> looking at differences of the two individuals although they are very different individuals one thing that i found very frustrating about the book was that the author chose to present a very serious story, my brother story, a very serious and chose to present that interest rose two of trivial and social finance and finding that interesting but that is one reason it was successful. it is easy to read john berendt is a magazine writer and was when he wr

first, joe johns lays out how all of this mess began. >> reporter: john edwards, the politician. remember him? >> we have much work to do. because the truth is, we still live in a country where there are two different americas. >> reporter: as it turned out, mr. two americas had two very different faces himself. people close to him said it was the face of betrayal. betrayal of the people closest to him. his late wife, elizabeth, supporters, his staffers, his contributors. grant it, he was a promising politician at first. rich trial lawyer, but a spokesman for the poor. smart but homegrown. talked such a good game, he good picked up as john kerry's running mate in 2004. >> i have chosen a man who understands and defends the values of america. >> reporter: but it didn't work out, so next election cycle, edwards jumped into the race for the white house once again. by early 2008 -- >> it's time for me to step aside. >> reporter: he was out. but not before getting entangled in a messy relationship with a woman named rielle hunter. she eventually gave birth to edwards' child. edwards a

>> john hendren in washington this morning. thank you. >>> today's jobs report will add to the campaign rhetoric you heard in john's story. mitt romney officially entered the race for president yesterday. and he's making the economy the center of his pitch. here's john berman. >> reporter: it's uncertain what was in the chili mitt romney served out. but his campaign's recipe has just two ingredients. >> jobs, economy. losing their jobs. economy. job creation. >> reporter: unemployment is still over 8%. and according to mitt romney, that's the president's fault. will you have a jobs program, day one? >> absolutely. the first thing i will do as president of the united states, if i'm lucky enough to get that job, is return america to being the number one place in the world for creating jobs. i know how to do that. it's what i spent my life doing. >> reporter: his record includes turning around the 2002 olympics. and years as a ceo, helping to buy and build companies. though, he did oversee layoffs, too. still, jobs are what he wan

want to something else and i want to talk about john. stewart a lot on tonight's show because he's great so he went on fox news with chris wallace and i think a lot of people would agree just totally destroyed him but just take a look at the reasoning and like the research that went into wallace's mind for this take a look at a clip. case in point how did you physically have sex with tommy lee he has a you know if you put anything in front of my face i would know whether i should or feed it up enough. so nothing exactly masterpiece theater you're working for you're damn right and i think i am perfectly poised i think that is my that is worth the counter balance to that i know i know that i had i don't. care for this i had to prepare i had to go to episodes of south park i had to see cartman's mom is a slot parts one and two i don't know if you know nine one one says i'm about those guys they are brilliant guys are you suggesting that you and i are the same are you suggesting that what are my my highest aspiration and what are your desper

>> it would become irrelevant what i say, really, john.t a choice about democrats and republicans and about asking people to vote for a republican candidate or someone other than the president of the united states. and i want to make that absolutely clear. this is about how many people we can get to the polls, how many of those 850,000 puerto ricans in florida, how many of the millions that he's going to need in key battleground states that he won before. new mexico and colorado and florida and nevada. we want to make sure -- i want to make sure that there is a sense of, how would i say it, here are the promises that are made, here are the people that came out to vote, and they're actually in unison with one another. that is, people voted, came out, and the promises were kept. >> some tough words from the democratic congressman. luis gutierrez. sir, thanks for your time tonight. >> thank you so much. >>> when we come back, we'll fact check a claim made in last night's republican debate. and, well, there was something i did last night that

governor john kasich took to the links to discuss what should be done with the poor. look at them. look at this picture. if you were designing an editorial cartoon about out of touch washington insiders discussing a failing economy, you would put them on a golf course and then cross it out because it would be too cliched. too on the nose. you would say to yourself it's like they're posing for their own "new york post" page 6 cartoon. (laughter) of course "the new york post" would not make a cartoon of barack obama having sex with john boehner while pointing to a sheep. we actually made that cartoon. but don't let anyone tell you political humor is a guying art. poor optic as side, why would john boehner agree to go golfing with the president. >> the president asked him to play golf, it's the president. you don't say no to the president. (laughter) >> jon: what? do you follow politics? (laughter) >> the president in private directly asked the speaker for what they call a clean vote. speaker boehner said no way. >> the president wanted to bring representatives to the wh

i think it is well known that john mearsheimer is deaf. i used that, roger wilkinson. the announcement of du bois as an epigraph. and he says there, you know, there is one thinker whose double overshadows both the movement happening here today is du bois. so real connection in between not only what is going on the level of contemporary writers. there is thinking about these issues, is used to my income having to do with identity, conflicts in the aftermath of segregation, the aftermath of obama, but also the voice has had an enormous impact on activists. >> what was his relationship, professor, with bush -- booker t. washington. >> that, of course, is an important thing in the book and something that has been talked about at great lengths in the literature and also is important. when one thinks about the history, activism and african-american political thought, john mearsheimer devotes an entire chapter to washington. so washington, of course, was the most prominent and influential african american political force at the time. and he really did, which is why john mears

john alston abc sevennews. >> thank you, john.u back live to the funeral procession that is making its way out of san francisco and on to colma. these are live pictures from sky 7 hd. >> this is an amazing site. you are talking 150 to 200 vehicles in a procession and they will make their way to san francisco and on the way to 280. . contrast of the two men. it is so sad we are learning about the men too late after the tragedy has occurred. they sounded like wonderful personalities and wonderful characters really . i wish i could have known them. >> yeah. >> while they were still with us. >> kind of like the yen and iang. one in yoga and one in weight lifting and dedicate to their fields it was a sad day and with all funeral type services, you want to remember the best of the individual and they did that today. >> a sad tribute to these men and all firefighters and people who put their lives on the line for the rest of us . we'll talk about their traffic. as you can see this procession making their way. you know there will be track

i'm sure john stewart will have fun with that in particular. circus, the only thing could have trumped it is if she rod had showed up many the audience and sought her moment of vindication. it's not surprising that andrew breitbart showed up and sort of tried to take the spotlight upon himself when given it be opportunity. i do think though, he had a five-minute window where he could have worn the gloss of legitimacy. he managed to shrug it off by standing up there and making it about him. when in reality this is about the career of an elected representative. >> to be fair to andrew, he was asked by the reporters stand at the microphone -- now, of course the reporter it was self-serving for them and for us. we got great video. andrew breitbart and a microphone, the media got great stuff out of this thing today. but going forward here, there's a very interesting journalistic moment here in our history. abc news went into business with andrew breitbart. one has a fair reason to assume that some money changed hands. that andrew was paid for his se

joe johns, thank you.ase and, obviously, following his court appearance going to happen later this afternoon. thank you, joe. >>> here's a chance to talk back on one of the big stories of the day. today's question, was the auto bailout worth it? carol costello with that question and more. hey, carol. >> interesting question. president obama will visit a chrysler plant in ohio today to tout his auto industry bailout, how it created jobs and save our economy and he's also clearly testing the waters for 2012 when he will be asked again and again what's he done for the economy. republicans are saying, get real, mr. president, with the economy reeling, this is no time for a victory lap. gop front runner mitt romney was never a fan of the auto bailout. in 2008, romney wrote in "the new york times" let detroit go bankrupt. what does chrysler's yee think of the naysayers like mitt romney now? >> whoever tells you that is smoking illegal material. the government stepped in as the actor of last resort. it had to do

john, can you come up? the question is -- john haley, our director of transportation, the question is, of the overtime that you expend on a daily basis, how much is related strictly to shortage of personnel, shortage of operators? >> in terms of operator overtime on a daily basis, one of the buckets of overtime is what we fill -- runs with we fill with overtime, we put out 1,174 all together. some of that is not having enough operators and part of it is the question raised earlier about part of -- part of that is catching up, the system catching up with the people that left, the attrition rate, stopping of hiring a couple of years ago, to catch up on the hiring and training. the other part of it is work force management. on a typical day right now we're pushing on the range, 15% has gone to 20% of people that are scheduled to work that are unavailable for a range of reasons. the biggest reason is use of fmla across the system but there are some other reasons as well. so part of what we have to do is work wi

chris: and finally there is john edwards. here was his denial after "the national enquirer" revealed his affair. he thinks he can get by with a denial. >> it's completely untrue and ridiculous. i have been in love with the same woman for 30-plus years as anybody who has been around uslá >> this twitter picture in question is a hack or a prank that someone posted on my twitter page. it seem like a prank to make fun of my name. chris: demake a nightmare worse or was this homeless to begin with. >> people say that the cover-up is worse than the crime itself. certainly the things that he did and the way he tried deny this made him look a fool. the crime in this case was going to be pretty devastating one way or the another. if you send pictures of your genitals around, and they are forwarded around the world, you are in serious trouble no matter how you respond. chris: he distributes the evidence worldwide. >> they could have used some more cover-up. chris: this is fraught with that. when we come back, is there an exit strategy f

thank you, john. so with that i'll hand it over to john mccarthy from i.d.c. >> hi, thank you very much. they just asked me to weigh in a little bit of what's going on in government with cloud computing right now. basically, i'm sure that most of the people on this call have heard of cloud computing and the directions it's taking government, private industry, etc., and a lot of the talk has been on the potential for reducing cost, effort. what i see in cloud services is that it gives government the potential to kind of relieve government i.t. departments of the need to maintain multiple systems. many have traditionally a system in every department, an email system in every department, etc. and while the department needs email, every department doesn't need to maintain their own email server. i expect cloud to grow for solutions such as human resources management, maybe financial transaction process, etc. when you maintain multiple servers, each upgrades, patches, configuration management, etc., moving

i cannot get inside john edwards's had. i found it interesting that rather than plea-bargain, he is going to trial. and the word is because he does not want to lose his right to practice law, he may very well be thinking and writing his book about his own redemption that way. >> would it be great if you went back and wins this case and devotes the rest of his life and those of men's skills he has in the courtroom towards people who stopped? with defense attorneys to win big is their get turned by the money and fame. maybe clarence darrow was lucky he had that great fall. otherwise he would have turned out the same way. tavis: what is it about him as a lawyer that made him such -- what made him such a darling of hollywood and screenwriters? very apt question. he was an actor in the courtroom. he would do things like, he would start out like this. and then he would lean over to the jury and he would talk in a low voice until the people in the back row had to lean forward and all the said he would raise his hand and start thun

professor john w.fman got a federal research grant to study the effects of marijuana on the brain. but was told he had to create and use chemical substitutes instead of the real thing. >> i had a passing thought that somebody might pick up on it, but i didn't really think seriously about it. >> reporter: but to the chagrin of professor hoffman, his secret chemical substitutes, named after his initials, jwh, were ripped off. and they are now the active ingredients in many of the spice and k-2 products, so popular with american teens. professor hoffman says his chemicals put users at great risk. >> the jwh compounds, these are -- these are dangerous. don't use this stuff. >> reporter: federal law enforcement officials this year banned some of the jwh compounds. but professor hoffman invented hundreds of them with this taxpayer money and now many of them remain legal, so, these products, george, remain very available at shopping malls and gas stations to americans of almost any age. >> and teens are doing
