your today, host of "kennedy," kennedy prayed and coast of "after the bill, melissa springs it going mike melissa francis. and fox news contributor, nationally syndicated radio talk show host emma jackson. i listen to you last week. you are spirited, my friend. you are "outnumbered." >> kevin: i am glad to be here here. >> harris: fire on your tie and your radio show. >> kevin: you listen to my show? i am impressed. and you are admiring my socks, i am truly #oneluckyguy. >> harris: general kelly a short time ago attending the first cabinet meeting after being sworn in as the new white house chief of staff. president trump expressing confidence in kelly on the job. >> we just war in general kelly, he will do a spectacular job. i have no doubt. as chief of staff, what he has done in terms of homeland security is record shattering, you look at the border and the tremendous results that we have had. and you look at the spirit. and with a very controversial situation there has been very little controversy. so i want to continue to congratulate you on doing a fantastic job, and we look for

i'm curious from kennedy's standpoint.rand paul camp where you think it is so bad and you might as well not pass it, because you compared it to being promised a mercedes for your 16th birthday and getting your family junk car. >> kennedy: an empty coke can with a couple of cheerios for wheels. only two of them. but to your point, to use to continue and extend your metaphor, is a dated tear down or a remodel? we were promised a tear down, going to start from strictly manic scratch. >> harris: a better version. >> kennedy: socialized medicine is not cheap, it is so much more expensive. it is a drag on the economy, it hurts poor people. we see that over and over again, but now with the talk of bipartisanship and not just from senator mccain, but also susan collins, they are saying that we have democrats reaching out to me, my fear is here that if it is too bipartisan and new get progresses too big of a bone, it turns into something that resembles a single pair than obamacare. >> harris: they are waiting in the wings to suppor

the kennedys got the message. the first phone call jack theedy made the day after election was to call j edgar hoover and ask him to stay on as director of the fbi, even though he had been under considerable pressure by liberals to fire hoover. >> what is the importance of chief -- inga and jfk story? >> i don't think he would have become president without her because of three things. she made it possible for him to pursue a political career. he always wanted to go to politics, but he was always being compared unfavorably within the family to his older brother. kathleen kennedy said it was heresy to suggest jack was better than joe junior. a said i can tell you, as somebody who has been on the world stage, you have everything it takes to be president of the united states if that's what you want to do, so put a fire to that ambition, and go all the way to the white house. she encouraged jack to tell his father what his ambitions were. we can almost date it precisely. in 1942, with her encouragement, jack went to pa

>> guest: no, it was bobby kennedy who pretty much got johnson to bow out, pretty much. it was-- johnson was stunned by gene mccarthy's winning new hampshire. techie, jean mccartney did not win, but he had a much higher about that anyone expected. gene mccarthy was supposed to get 10% and he got over 40% of the vote and that was played as a win. johnson was stunned by it, absolutely stunned by it and was not sure where to go. bobby kennedy was also stunned by it and when i did not know at the time, was a high school kid time watching this and what i did not know is that bobby kennedy had been thinking about running for president before gene mccarthy and the people who eventually talked gene mccarthy into running for president first try to talk bobby kennedy into running for president and bobby kennedy chose not to do it and he wished gene mccarthy at least at the beginning, were naturally meant that, but then when he saw what gene mccarthy achieved in new hampshire bobby kennedy announced right away that he was now-- he saw how weak johnson was. that's what bobby kennedy
