[calling speaker names] >> good morning directors and executive director kaplan. i am ht tran and work with anvil builders and a minority owned business in the bay view district i want to thank you for the opportunities you made available to my company and for me a disabled veteran of the iraqi war. i want to stress how important it is to engage veterans and business owners. we are grateful for the transit center projects. we were awarded a nine proint $2 million contract and hoist for the project and we pursued this project and built with other veterans at the outreach events of the tjpa. as an entrepreneur and veteran i can't tell you how important to get a meaningful opportunity for this project of this caliber. we grew from 10 employees to 50 now and we have other competitive contracts that we experienced here in the city and county of san francisco meeting with other contractors large and small who are becoming our teammates and clients and i want to mention webcor/obayashi and turner construction have been incredible mentors to our firm. working with this pr

kaplan, i wonder if could i ask you. accelerated, in light of the severity of the threat in africa, how long would it take under some reason -- with some reasonability here to get the drug if they worked to people on the ground in africa? >> i'm no expert in the drug producti production, but likely to be weeks or months to get them going and got to be emphasized that these drugs are unproven. we don't know what the risks are which don't what he what the benefits are and small amounts of them. to control this outbreak requires isolation and contact tracing and it won't happen with the drugs. it requires traditional public health methods. >> that's very good point as well. and dr. fauci, i know that people in situations like this, they like quick and easy solutions. this one may not have a quick and easy solution. what are the key steps that need to be taken in west africa to do as dr. kaplan says to control this and get treatment to people on the ground and keep these paths of infection from continuing? >> there are two t

arthur kaplan is the director of medical ethics at new york university's langone medical center. he was nice enough to join us from vacation via skype from denver, colorado. or steamboat springs, right? >> that's right. >> thanks for being with us. the interesting thing, we've heard a lot about its surprising results that there was just a one day after taking the serum an improvement in at least two of the patients. you had an interesting story about where this came from and why putting it into widespread use at least right now is an extremely large challenge. >> well, you still have a highly experimental drug. it's great, almost unexpected that it would do so well in the first two humans who got it. it's really only been given to a small number of monkeys, success there. but to bring a drug forward really so you know how to use it, what the dose is, how to administer it, how often to give it you have to test it on a lot more human beings. we might try this drug on children, very old people. what are the doses for them, how they're going to respond again unknown. so very promisin

and arthur kaplan, the director of the public health department in atlanta. doctor, let me start with you, i heard so many people say when the news was revealed that these two people had been cured. in just three weeks, here's you've had this medical break through. what are your thoughts today? >> i don't think you can call this a medical break through because i don't think we could definitively say at all that it was the medication that they got that made them better. because remember, about 50% of people survive ebola anyway, even under conditions that are not as good as the excellent medical conditions at emery, so although we're very, very pleased that they're doing well, and that they're going to be discharged, i think it is really beyond the scientific evidence to say that we have a medical break through here, i just wouldn't categorize it as that. i would say that we have a couple of people who have gotten excellent medical care, the therapy, the specific therapy, that may have had a role in it but we don't know definitivity. >> we're just getting more

robert kaplan's latest piece is about the hard hand washington is facing in the middle east. you've been writing about how these autocrats in the middle east, as much as we may dislike them, have historically been the u.s.'s best allies there and more reliable than democratic governments. where does that leave us with isis? we got rid of the autocrat in iraq. i don't know that assad is a workable partner for us. now that we've created this vacuum, what can replace it? >> well, first of all, in the middle east, there's no choice except to work with autocrats. israel is a democracy. tunisia is a very tottering democracy. that's about it. if anyone is going to help us in gaza, it's going to be the autocracy of egypt to broker a cease-fire between israel and the palestinians there. in terms of isis, the fact remains that iraq is in a liberal, unwieldy, barely functioning democracy. you have an autocracy in syria. the white house may say it has no interest at all in helping president al assad in syria, but the fact remains simply by bombing isis in syrianer is story, it functional

so when the americans showed up over there, george kaplan was there with his indians and his paintings840s, those american indians, native americans were astonished to hear, he'd been out on the great plains. he had spent time in there with their tribes and could speak some of their language. he really seemed more of a western -- what was then the wild west than all but a very few americans had. so from the point of view of the americans who came to paris, louis philippe was a wonderful king. he was the kind of kinky would take to walk in the gardens in the afternoon. it was sort of a prize i republic with the monarchy, but it didn't last. it lasted about 10 years. then came in another first republic, and then after that came the polling the third, as he called himself, -- napoleon iii, who made himself emperor. and that led to this whole complete rebuilding of paris under napoleon iii. that pairs that we see today is really the paris that napoleon iii and his chief officer in charge of the reconstruction of paris, george houseman, that's the paris we know today with the grand boulevar

according to arthur kaplan, director of bioethics at nyu langone medical center.idea of being diagnosed with ebola is terrifying, absolutely horrifying. today's outbreak is the worst than ever, 1,600 suspected cases and 887 deaths according to the world health organization. it is not nearly as contagious as another more common disease. the flu, which you might have heard of, causes as many as 500,000 deaths each year. 500,000. ebola is scarier with the whole sometimes bleeding from the eyes thing. but you are a lot less likely to die from it. in a press conference today, bruce johnson, director of simusa, the organization nancy writebol is working for in liberia added some perspective. >> i don't know if you know, but there are 50 doctors, liberian doctors, for 4 million people. the kind of infrastructure that we have in the u.s. is something that really provides this. i saw a report, you can help me here, someone in new york went into a hospital and felt like they may have ebola. that's exactly what people need to do, but it's not available in liberia. they can't

initially been defending it, and a guy named tony west, the associate attorney general called robby kaplan, edie windsor's lawyer and says, you know, i need time. can we have an extension in terms of filing a response to your brief? and edie was really frail and she has heart problems and, you know, robby worried she could die and so she said, no way, i'm not gig you yes more time. tony west says to her, please, i'm begging you. the attorney general needs more time. we're trying to decide what to do, and robby thought -- she couldn't believe they were considering doing anything other than defending it, so she said -- she told tony west, if that's really true, tell the attorney general that i'll be praying -- and the president i'll be praying for them, and so when the administration did decide not to defend doma, it tony west called robby and the way he told her, he said, you know, sometimes prayers work. so there's lots of i think really compelling and interesting detail about that case that you haven't read in the newspaper. you know, that said, to your legal point, yes, because prop 8 wa

we heard from eli kaplan on our the super pac ready for hillary tries to support her nomination. here's a look. >> what's really unique about this organization is that we're not so, uh -- it would be presumptuous to think that "ready for hillary" could dictate what hillary clinton's message is going to be. this is not a campaign that's focused on building grassroots army and infrastructure. for every time that hillary goes out and gives a speech about recent things that have happened in voter suppression, we're really echoing that make sure our email list knows the key points that she's hit off and giving people opportunities to really join in the efforts that she's promoting and then also really just using her as a force of personality. so a lot of the imagery that you see on the facebook page and on the email list and other social network channels are things we've done a lot of testing on and seen that people really respond to because she is an inspiring figure. >> that was part of the annual netroots nation conference held in detroit. you can see the entire event at 8:00 easte

want to bring in professor arthur kaplan. let me start with nigeria and why that's so concerning. contact from someone who came in through the airport. this is not supposed to happen. >> not supposed to happen. nigeria is a big, sophisticated, relatively rich country. it's got a lot of doctors. should be able to quarantine. should be able to restrict travel. should be able to educate people. if you're throwing up, if you're sick, no airport for you. so the fact that these two cases happened is troubling. it's also bothersome because there's a lot of people coming and going around nigeria and through nigeria for business. that's a place you want to have absolutely good quarantine. >> this is the big fear. all we talk about is airports, people being able to move around. i don't want to call this isolated, but this has to be a cause for greater concern because that's a major airport, and somebody gets on a plane there is not caught and ends up somewhere else, we're having a different conversation. >> that's right. it's a big hub for africa, but it's a big hub to the rest of the world
