. >> before we go to tony, let me ask john. the book that you wrote was such a commentary on how we train or fail to train lawyers. you know, in the typical method that we teach in law school. that book and that story "the paper chase," what were you saying about the way in which -- i mean, when i went to law school, the emphasis was to become a corporate lawyer. there was very little emphasis placed on being a people's lawyer. or somebody like a tony sarah. what are your thoughts on that? you've practiced. you're a law professor. recently retired. you've taught at a number of different schools. any thoughts on that? >> well, yes, i have lots of thoughts on it. i went to harvard law school. and believe me, when i was there, there was no legal aid at all. everybody was become a corporate lawyer. there was no question about it. you didn't even think about it. it would never even dawn on anybody. i don't think that anybody knew that there were defense attorneys. you know? anyway, at its heart that little clip said something, i thi

. >> let me ask john again, do you think our self-defense laws, as we've understood them through commonsuppose somebody runs a small business in a neighborhood and a couple guys come in with hoods on, they're standing there armed, he pulls out his gun and kills them both. most people would say he's in self-defense because these guys could shoot him. that is self-defense. aren't the self-defense laws enough that we have on the books. is that true? >> it's absolutely true. in fact, chris, in working on stories on this particular variation of the castle doctrine law and the stand your ground laws, i've looked at the states where they've been passed and tried to figure out whether there was any case or any public outcry that justified going beyond the traditional protections that are in common law that have existed since before the founding of the united states. in most cases there aren't any reasons to go here. the reason that state after state has gone here is because the american legislative exchange council in 2005, after florida passed its law, developed model legislation that with the

. >> let me ask john a question. you're a pilot.nd you're depressed or taking medication, is it fair to say you might lie about what's going on because you don't want to get caught? >> you can lie on any of the medical forms and doctor won't know it. i've been through many first class physicals that this guy went through. not once did i feel someone was evaluating me on a psychological basis. what's scary is this guy gets to work. nobody notices it. he takes off. everything is fine. >> he missed a meeting. would that be a red flag or one of those things it happens. >> it could have been traffic. just like -- >> that couldn't be a red flag. >> not a red flag because you're late from work. three ours inhours into the fli goes berserk. why wasn't he yelling and ranting before? >> the affidavit shows as they were taking off out of jfk, he started getting very tense and acting a little bit strangely. it's not until the 3 1/2 hours in that he's having the full meltdown. >> i want to ask one quick question. is your lesson from this there m

>> let me ask you, john mentioned there's a lot of competition in the mobile space, google there, lots does paypal have? you a big user base, what do you do better than the other guys so that you can put distance between your products and theirs specifically? >> well, you know, i think, you know, payment is first of all really, really hard. and especially at scale and a large number of countries. so as i said before, we have an unbelievable platform that's solely focused on payments. and that's our core business. and, you know, we've been doing it extremely well growing at almost 30% year on year at the scale of hundreds of billions of dollars of transaction volume. and, you know, leveraging this platform for innovation and creating amazing products is going to enable us to keep the lead in the space. >> mr. do na hue, how is e-bay's business these days? >> e-bay's doing great. our focus as a company is driving the future of commerce because what's happening is retail as we've known it historically, retail and e-commerce is being transformed before our very eyes. consumers are changing

. >> let me ask you a blunt question about that, will they show john adams without any teeth? >> i hope so. i hope so. >> why? >> and so far all the -- all that i've suggested about this -- about details of that kind, they have taken very seriously. and their efforts to make everything as authentic as possible is the most remarkable kind of integrity in that field, in that specialty, that i've ever seen. >> how many parts in the series? >> i think it's 11. >> and where will it run? >> on hbo. >> when? >> well, they're going to start filming i believe this fall. and how long it will be after that, i don't know. but they're building back lots outside of richmond and a lot of it will be filmed in williamsburg. and some of it on location in europe. >> while we're on john adams for a moment, what do you think of the chances of having the monument in washington to him soon, and will it just be john adams or john and abigail or john quincy adams or the entire adams family? >> well, this is still open to discussion. and the congress has passed the bill making it possible, and the pres

let me ask you this -- china, india, south koreaia, john harwood mentioned these countries. will they play ball, will they observe the sanctions? and where will they get oil? >> if you're the chinese, you can demand a significant discount for taking the product. so you get the product -- >> how about india? india is a pal. sou korea is our pal. we have good relations for them. if they observe the angss or fully stop -- >> they will cut back probably but they are going to fully stop taking the iranian product? absolutely not. >> or you know i'm a believer in free markets and they die just all the information. today's nount mens not a particularly k announcement not a surprise. >> that should have been an upward lift for these prices. the production trends favor much loper prices. the iraqis are pumping as much as they did in 1979. huge amounts. the libyan oil situation, coming backline, their big huge refinery will be restored probably within the next pun month. >> if crude oil prices go down, can gasoline prices be far behind? >> no. >> are we seeing the peak in gasoline pri

. >> sean: and you can't be john kerry ordering a cheesecake. let me aske a really important part of the campaign. the president has been lecturing this country about the tone and civility, and he lectures everybody but he takes a million dollars from bill maher. president we played it earlier in the program you can't attack children of presidential candidates or people in politics which i agree with. but yet, bill maher has attacked you and i want to air this type and get your reaction. >> it's no coincidence the type of tree which god forbade was the tree of knowledge. rick santorum home schools his children because he does not want them eating that [ bleep ] ally. he wants them locked up in christian madras which is the family living room. >> sean: it got worse from that. christian madrassa. what do you think the president taking million dollars from bill maher. they say they will not return the money but they are lecturing on discourse and civility? >> it's an absolute double standard. there wasn't an interview where i was asked about rush limbaugh. fo

. >> and let me ask about personnel here for a second. a little different context. the john r. justice program. they're right now about 1,600 prosecutors, 1,200 public defenders i believe in last fiscal year that received assistance under that program to help them pay off their student loans, et cetera. but this budget as i understand it as has been submitted does not have funding for that program this year. so i guess, my concern there would be that we want the best and the brightest out there trying cases, and on both sides. again, this is both defenders and prosecutors, and our criminal justice system, it's critical we have good representation on both sides. and i'm afraid that we're going to lose a lot of talent if we don't have a program like this, and i was wondering if you share that concern, and what you -- what steps you think we can do to try to keep the best and the brightest, you know, coming onboard? >> no. i do share that concern. we want the best and the brightest to come and take what are low-paying jobs on the prosecution side, on the defense side. these kids,

let me ask you to than join me in thanking the panel for the presentation today. >>> today from the national press club, watch a discussion with john pistol, head of the transportation security administration on the future of aviation security. that will be live on c-span2 at 1:00 p.m. eastern. coming up on c-span3 at 3:00 p.m., an overview of the federal trade commission budget request for 2013. we'll hear from john liebowitz, chairman of the federal trade commission. >>> president obama has requested $51.6 billion for state department funding in 2013. secretary of state hillary clinton defended this request at a house foreign affairs question. she answered questions on iran, iraq, oil prices, pakistan and the burning of korans by u.s. troops. this is about two hours and 35 minutes. >> the meeting

. >> and let me ask about personnel here for a second. a little different context. the john r. justice program. 'r

john, thanks for the call. let me take his comment and ask you to move the story forward. if the court does strike down all or part of the health care bill what does congress do? does it go back to square one? >> well, i don't know. frankly, the congress is very polarized today. and it's difficult, frankly, to see how this congress, at least, here in 2012, would have the ability to get agreement on any kind of major health care legislation, if this bill were struck down. so you never know what the sentiments of a new congress might be, after the election, but it's not realistic to write that this congress wil a new bill. it's just not going to happen. >> you came to washington when tip o'neill was the speaker of the house. ronald reagan in thi1982. 30 years in the u.s. senate. has the institution changed? has washington changed? in these past three decades? >> all of the above. 9 institutional changed, washington's changed but the all of this polarization and inability to agree that people see in washington is a reflection, frankly, oft see, n. there's great polarization i

. >> john: what is fair about that? let me ask you, speaking of fairness.sses are being viciously attacked by the president himself in some cases. i'm told they secretly funding the climate denial machine. people resent them. they have number 12 in the forbes richest list. so they must be bad guys? >> that is really remarkable to me. i have had the honor of working with them, charles and david koch and success story. they have made a phenomenal business and employ 50,000 people in 46 states. building stock that people need and they means they are under attack. >> john: another one, is subsidy is for the electric vehicle, chevy volt, $190 million in subsidies. >> the numbers i've seen on electric vehicles are nothing short of amazing. you are talking about, if it worked on average, $250,000 per car. >> john: $250,000 per car. >> for $40,000 car. my kids are buying $2500 for a pickup truck. >> john: but they will come down and air will be clean? >> they have been working on this for quite some time. president obama says he will buy a volt when he is no longer

let me give you the number again. i know we're being asked to give it again. the total raw numbers here. mitt romney, 38,116. rick santorum, 22,785. so -- >> dana, let me interrupt. i'm here with john this holds, that puts santorum second, romney ahead state-wide. >> that's just shy of 16,000 votes right there. and we had it at 10,000 votes. there's a net plus of 6,000 votes for romney right there. the gap was 2,700 coming into the conversation. that would put romney ahead. that would put romney ahead. i'm going to turn off the telestrator and come out. this is where we are in the official count right now. >> it would put him ahead by about 3,000 votes. >> and then you look, is there any place rick santorum can win. he is winning in fairfield county. santorum could pick up votes here. i'm going to tap some santorum votes. 100% of the vote in, 100% of the vote in, 100% of the vote in. in most of the places santorum is winning, we have 100% in or close to it. here is romney's extra bank, cuyahoga, a very big lead. if the numbers hold up, we'll give romney the votes to come back. by our count, cnn's exclusive numbers from there, pay no attention. romney would be ahead. >> this is now

let me ask either of you if you have insight in that, john? >> i think in a party that has moved to the right in recent years, in the era of the tea party and accelerated conservativism, those are the people most motivated to turn out. it's to mitt romney's advantage that is being split among newt gingrich and rick santorum, and so it's not beyond the pale he could win one or both of the states. that would be a huge step from santorum's view point the optimop tity outcome it is to win both, but not have newt gingrich win any and have mitt win the other one. >> steve, when your candidate john mccain was up against mike huckabee and mitt romney and fred thompson and the rest of those guys in 2008, why was a smaller proportion of the electorate for those races a white evangelical elect toran than we're seeing this year? >> i think as we're looking at the accumulation, rachel of exit data from all these states, we don't have a clear enough picture yet to make diagnosis about exactly what is going on in the electorate. but when you look in the pres

let's bring in steve schmidt tonight. he served as a senior advisor to john mccain's campaign and with us eugene robinson. gentlemen, great to have you with us tonight. steve, let me ask you first, the to 1% would get $150,000 tax break under this ryan plan. there is no polling out there that supports that this is where the country wants to go. how are the republicans going to be able to support this plan and win in november? >> look, i agree with some of your characterizations of the plan. i think that this is a serious governing blue print for republicans. i think it presents a big choice, a big difference between the president's vision and the republican vision. republicans have to do a better job than they did last year communicating the virtues of this. this is a revenue neutral plan. the tax codes are flattened to two rates, 25%, 10% so people's tax rates go down. this is plan that can encourage economic growth, lead prosperity and tleed economic recovery. the republicans are going to have to be able to go out and communicate this against what what you previewed will be an effective line of attack. >> is it going to be hard and go on the campaign and sell this.

academy of pediatrics, a lot of this -- these studies were done at johns hopkins and at nih and centers for disease control. >> let me ask you this not everybody supports it, some say this is just another example of government intruding into people's private and personal lives. >> well, one piece of information is that second hand smoke exposure costs $73 million a year, in children's medical treatment, so if we are thinking about -- i think if it were my child, i would not want her to be in a car pool with someone that was smoking and so, it is some times this is a wake up call. i've learned so many things that i had no idea about, i am not a smoker but certainly after reading all the pages and so forth of testimony, it is -- parents need to wake up and be sure that kids are not smoking that parents are not smoking in a car, that the kids could be getting that. >> let me play devil's advocate for you for just a moment where do we draw the line. those that say you can't legislate stupidity you know they say well, why not make it against the law to force your -- or feed your kid a twinkie obesity is a big problem as well

. >> joining us is john henry brown, the attorney for staff sergeant robert bales. let me askcounts coming out according to the military investigation your client is alleged to have twice left the base, gone out from the base, committed some of these murders, come back to the base and then after some period of time gone back out again. what does your client say happened that night? >> that is an allegation of course that is certainly not proof of anything. obviously johnny can't tell you what my client remembers or don't remember other than telling you that he has some memory problems about everything that happened that night. >> has the military shown you any evidence he left witness or twice or more that night? >> no, no, actually there is a defense part of our defense team on the ground in afghanistan right now and we are gathering information and interviewing witnesses and getting information from the military prosecutors, but i haven't had a chance to look at that yet. >> obviously you are awaiting for information from them. you are watching this case being discussed publ

me is john kilda. >> i have to figure out a way to get in on the cake story. >> there's a lot of extras there. i think protein is one of them. let me askyone else is asking. when is this going to stop? >> it's not going to stop for awhile. you might have heard or viewers might have seen or heard about a spike last night close to 4:00 p.m. eastern time. oil prices hit $110 a barrel for the first time since last year. on reports sketchy reports that the iranians or somebody was behind a bombing of a major oil pipeline in saudi arabia. saudis denied. i couldn't run it down. we're back down now today. we fell $3 off that it high. but it highlights the tensions that are surrounding oil prices and how reactive they are going to be to the various rhetoric. those high oil prices are what those high gas prices come from. >> it's also fueling a fight between president obama and the republican ls because the president is demanding that congress eliminate oil and gas company subsidies. let me play for you what he said in new hampshire yesterday. >> i'm asking congress, eliminate the oil industry give away right away. i want them to vote on this in

john, i want you to start us off, and i want to ask you about the fed bond buying announcement which helped stocks to rally today. let meet this right. they'll buy bonds and inject money, but then they'll take the money back out so they don't cause inflation. to me, this is tinkering and confusing and cockamamie and hughey and what is it because i think it's nut. >> sounds right to me, larry. the problem is they should be getting off of this kind of thing and trying to find a way to get back to more predictable policies and policies that i think worked in the past and quite frankly, i don't think you can attribute a rally to this kind of thing. sometimes you get an up and sometimes you get a down, but this is not the way to run a monetary policy. some people on wall street want more and more easy money and they think that's great for stocks and they don't care about the future of the dollar and they don't care about the possibility of more excess being built in the system. it's like an old wall street tune and it's the exact opposite of the tail of discipline. >> absolutely. eventually that will be harmful. you mentione

ask questions, if the have questions about the ordinance. >> let me start with an apology to the interpreter. i will try to slow down. my name is john. i am here on behalf of 10,000 aclu members in san francisco who feel very strongly about these issues. while we care about the range of civil rights issues, the reason we have 10,000 members right now is because what has been going on post 9/11. we plan to let them know when their supervisors, when the mayor does on an import issue like this. personally, i have 25 years of experience working on police issues nationally and locally. i coordinated the aclu campaign against russia profiling and worked on a number of important policies with the sfpd, one of which is the intelligence policies that are the subject of this ordinance today. i wanted thank supervisor kim for her leadership, the three co-sponsors who are here, and the two other sponsors in the room. we are pleased people are standing up for sentences can festival rites. i am honored to work with his coalition. i feel like john boehner. the question that this ordinance poses simply, it boils down to its san francisco will work w

let me go back to something john mccain touched on but i want to ask if you can go into more detail which is this about syria. can you describe in more detail, what is the extent of iranian and russian assistance to the military assistance to be outside government at this time? >> the russians have provided very advanced integrated air defense capabilities, missiles and radar and that sort of thing that would make imposition of a no-fly zone challenging if we were to go that direction. in terms of iran they're working earnestly to keep assad in power. they have flown in experts and weapons. it is a full throated effort by iran to keep assad there and oppress his own people. >> the iranians to the best of your knowledge have some expert or high-ranking personnel that move from pteron to damascus to assist the syrian forces. >> they have. >> what kinds of military assistance or systems are they providing to the syrian army? >> the kind of weapons that are being used right now to suppress the opposition. they are providing listening capability, eavesdropping capability to try to pick up wher

seen in >> let me ask you about the differences between what was in the house version, a five-year plan and now what's in the senate version, we know from last week the speaker of the house, john boehner was pushing a five-year transportation bill. so, if the senate bill does pass this week, where does that leave the five-year plan and the speaker of house, what happens next? >> well, the leader, speaker boehner had said, he told his caucus if you don't start supporting this five-year plan that the transportation chairman had put forward we're going to go forward with the senate plan, obviously for house democrats as said by the minority leader nancy pelosi they would prefer to see the senate brought up. the republican leadership would like to see the five-year bill move. however, it's been very difficult to wrangle the caucus on that. they're concerned about not just the top-line spending numbers but also the numbers that have been proposed. because of the oil and gas drilling provisions that are attached to the bills. >> so, what will happen? i mean, and what does the president support? >> the president has said that he supports the senate bill. he would support the senate b

john and patsy ramsey. >> for those of you who want to ask, let me address it directly i did not kill my daughter, jonbenet police did not adequately secure the crime scene and improperly collected forensic evidence. through years of scrutiny and investigations the ramseys always maintain their daughter was killed by an intruder. in 2006, patsy ramsey lost a long battle with ovarian cancer. she was buried next to jonbenet. in 2008 the boulder district attorney's office announced the ramseys were no longer suspects in their daughters' death, citing new analysis of dna evidence. john ramsey's book is titled reque "the other side of suffering." john thanks for being here. >> my pleasure, thanks for having me. >> we were commenting how strange it seems 15 years have passed. does that feel like a long time? >> well it seems like it was really just yesterday in many respects. it's hard to believe it was 15 years ago. >> one of the things that strikes me is, we talked about how you and your wife were considered suspects for 12 years. >> yep. >> as you're going through this tragedy of losing your daughter, what do
