[laughter] there is no story about kissinger but kissinger doesn't say what you think of the french revolution? i still think it is 1789 but it takes a long time to unfold if you look a certain policies to make an immediate determination to see an impact but it is harder to take the whole presidency to say did he transformed it? i don't think it is his fault to transform the opposite way he intended. we have become far more regimented. >> my opinion obamacare will not survive in its current form so that is in during. but what has thus conservatives were debt issues of concern it -- executive power the he has been the most successful in spite of pullback. with recess appointments and another case that didn't get a lot of attention and now with liberal justices you're pushing the envelope. that cover planner the immigration plan to be very bold. in moving more and more by the executive branch that is this something that works with the campaign. >> to say we will use the executive power and we will be better off one side to that. we will though the outer boundaries so clearly a need to use execut

what it was all about, it was worded in bureaucracy, even kissinger, kissinger always said that the verbs back in the middle of the sentence where they belong. so i did. i changed the wording i got a call i absolutely had to go to camp david because the president was really unhappy with the way the wording had been changed. well, cut to the chase, what was happening was nixon was deciding whether or not to mine the harbors and increased bombing of vietnam, a huge step back in a after. he was about to go to moscow. he had just been to china. everything was falling in place. the first arms control treaty was signed at the new era. and kissinger felt that nixon shouldn't do anything that ought to upset the russians soviets. and yet, mixing, the north vietnamese, anyway he was making the decision. he finally decided to go ahead and do this against kissinger's advice, one of his boldest decisions. eventually eight months later relayed to the american involvement in the time. this is what was preoccupied him as a crisis moment and he just did not tend to think about the canadian parliament. on

henry kissinger said months ago we would have to have assad in it to guess at the beginning but he had to be out at the end and that is what you heard from president obama today and that is important. laura: the resolution calls for efforts to get a cease-fire. why should islamic state call a cease-fire? investor picking -- pickering: the resolution excludes on his right and the islamic state, the two most radical factions. the cease-fire is to turn the war in their direction and they are the objects of conflict, not the subjects of a cease-fire. laura: the americans and russians are allowed to carry out airstrikes. groups state and other are still fighting, it is not a cease-fire, is it? >> it is a syrian -- a cease-fire in the syrian war between assad and the opposition when violence broke out over the peaceful protests that were enlarged -- lodged against a side. it is important that isis become a major subject of attention while the process of trying to find an answer, difficult as it may be, to the syrian conflict, the internal conflict, continues. it is us -- it is important beca

i mean, henry kissing said, and henry kissinger, last time i check, he said that hillary clinton ran the best state department he has seen in his lifetime. that's henry kissinger. >> beth, as we look at these two ads and see where hillary clinton has come as a candidate, do you see her playing this race differently? and is it more effective in any way? >> a little bit. the 2008 ad was specifically targeted against now president obama suggesting that then senator obama did not have the national security credentials or experience to handle a dangerous world. the new ad you played is much more geared towards bernie sanders. she doesn't talk about him much on the campaign trail, but she's going right at his message about economic inequality and economic insecurity. she's saying, she acknowledges there's economic inequality out there, people are nervous about the economy, but the way to get that stability is to have a safer world and she is the person to do that. >> national security and terrorism and job creation and economic growth are the two most important issues to voters, as we know

there's the old story about henry kissinger meeting with joe, talking about the 1968 -- henry kissinger, what do you think of the french revolution? we have to see how it comes out first. okay, maybe it was 1968. i still think he may not have meant it, i still think of 1789 that way. that is me being a fuddy-duddy but it takes a long time for a lot of these things to unfold and you look at certain policies, you can make an immediate determination or you can look at certain actions politically speaking can see an impact. it is harder to take the presidency and say did he transform? in hallway i don't think it is his fault, he transformed things the opposite way he intended politically. we have become far more regimented during his administration than we were before. >> two things. one, my own opinion is obama care and won't survive in its current form but the principle of universal or near universal health coverage has been planted for good. that will be an enduring thing however it changes down the road or is reformed or modified. the other thing that has a lot of conservatives work tha

henry kissinger wrote six weeks ago, the current inconclusive u.s. military effort risks serving as a recruitment vehicle for isis as having stood up to american might. and david ignatius, more recently, but the halfway measures taken by the u.s. thus far have only helped the jihadists. the other consequence of such half measures is that it adds to the doubts that allies or potential allies have about our commitment and about our willingness to see the mission through. hank crumpton, who led cia's afghanistan campaign after 9/11, wrote about isis earlier this year, many have lost faith in u.s. leadership. the perception of u.s. weakness and lack of strategic direction dissuades allies from policy and intelligence cooperation. i believe that a greater military effort must be run by the military. had a have to say, secretary carter, all three of your obama administration predecessors have complained openly about white house aides micromanaging military operations. i myself have heard from service members in the field about such instances which would ha

or assassinating salvador ali and a as the self-proclaimed realist henry kissinger made clear. so what you see, i think in both realism and idealism, is a common thread. there are too many isms. but exceptionalism. i will say it. and that is particularly evident, i think, in contemporary political debates. in hillary clinton's memoirs, which, for my sins, i was assigned to review. i learned a lot. through that long slog of 600 pages. exceptionalism, as you know, is the belief that america has a divinely ordained mission to reorganize the world in its own image. that of course, is a departure from the older notion that america should simply be of example to the rest of the world. and that is a much more defensible definition of exceptionalism. at hillary look clinton's campaign autobiography, hard choices, you see a very clear example of exceptionalism thinking in its current, and sophisticated form. becomes a series of rescue missions, staged opportunities for heroism, worthy of hollywood. mobs of brown skinned extras look up to see helicopters in the sky. we are saved, the ame
