hillary has been a major proponent of fracking around the world and has appointed ken salazar, the best friend of fracking to her transition team. so the climate is not looking so good under a hillary clinton administration and coal is terrible. but the science on fracking says it is wobbly just as bad. it is not ok to open up an entirely new generation of infrastructure that will wed us to fracking for another 20, 30, 40 years. it is curtains a minute we do that. there are many people to take a different point of view and recognize the politics of fear delivered everything we were afraid of. all the reasons you were told to evil, thehe lesser off shoring of our jobs, all of those reasons we were given to vote for the lesser evil, democracy needs a moral compass. we need an agenda, especially a time when there are enough people that we can drive that agenda toward. we could potentially win this race. i'm not holding my breath, but i'm not ruling it out. it's not over until it's over. >> i want to get your thoughts -- you mentioned access of money and politicians, what's your thought on

morning announcing their white house transition team, it will be led by former interior secretary ken salazar and he will plan and prepare for a potential clinton/kaine administration. governor chris christie still leading that effort for donald trump. david. >> tom, we appreciate it. let's get right to our chief white house correspondent, jonathan karl first, donald trump called for in his words extreme vetting of immigrants. a questionnaire with an ideological test but did we hear how it would be enforced or specific question, how they would be different from the questions already asked now? >> reporter: david, first, thgs the first time i've seen a candidate use the word extreme in an effort to provide a more moderate position, more moderate than his muslim ban, but no, there were precious few details about what questions would be asked. the basic idea here is to only allow in immigrants who share there's also no detail about what would happen or what would prevent a potential terrorist from simply lying on that questionnaire. >> and bigger picture here, jon, as you know obviously this was
