which was called by karl marx the first big war for communism. tand was in paris. and it was the first news event in a foreign country to be carried on a daley basis in the u.s. because cyrus field had laid the telegraph line and it was his brother stef when had been appointed to the supreme court, after making contributions to an ra lamb-- abraham lincoln, of all people. and he had been a railroad lawyer and so forth. and that's the decision that was cited as a precedent in citizen's unit rses okay, let me talk about the 2000 race for a second, all right. you lost tennessee. >> yeah. >> rose: why did you lose tennessee? >> well,. >> rose: and then you lost arkansas and i will come back to that in a moment. >> well, tennessee and the rest of the so-called upper south has been trending republican since the civil rights move oment. and in saying it that way i don't want to peg it solely to the civil rights movement. but if you look at tennessee, arkansas, gwyn gwyn. >> rose: north carolina. >> north carolina is still a partial exception but even like north alabama us

now that's not karl marx or chairman mao. that's ben bernanke. he is saying not only does slower growth hurt us in the way the congresswoman is mentioned, growth in jobs, it's counterproductive if your goal is truly deficit reduction. >> so the deficit is getting smaller. we're setting our hair on fire about the deficit as if it's getting larger. and in order to show the seriousness of how on fire our hair is, we're going the make the deficit problem worse. >> exactly. >> woo-hoo! >> and we're going to put a damper on growth. we're going to put more people out of work. and there will be more suffering where there needs to be recovery. >> what do you see as the way out of this? in congress since the republicans won control of the house and were sworn in 2011, we've had these repeated trips to the brink, whether it's the debt ceiling fights or the government shutdown fights and now this sequester fight. all of them coming to the 11th hour that weren't imposed from the country without, but were designed crises. how do we get out of it? >> manufactur

you know, when lincoln signed the emancipation proclamation karl marx of all people in england said abraham lincoln has now changed this conflict from a civil war to a revolution. and lincoln actually said similar things, or you know, and there's a deep, deep place in the popular imagination especially to the left, imagination, for revolution. it's walter benajmin likens to the messiah coming. it is an important part of the imagination and i don't think we can ever get rid of it nor should we. but there is a question about whether or not historical change that happens in a fracturing, what kind of transformation that is. and whether or not a slower, more carefully built transformation is not better. and i don't know the answer to that. but that torements he me and i think about that a great deal. evolution versus revolution. and i think that that has been one. of the overarching themes of the stuff that i'm interested in. >> thank you for coming. >> it's a pleasure to talk to you. >> pleasure always. >> countries ton waltz is here. in 2010 he won the oscar for best supporting actor for his
