i knew his views about lyndon johnson were complicated, too.him as his vice presidential running mate against the wishes of his brother, bobby. yet he liked him and knew he needed him. hi last political conversation on earth was driving to the airport on ft. worth where he was in the car trying to figure out why ft. worth had been so welcoming to him that morning and why dallas was so red hot right wing. he was to the end, jack kennedy, a student of politics knowing what he needed and how he needed to carry texas. trying to figure it out as so many people are trying to figure out texas today. and just as barack obama may be thinking how much he would rather run against rick perry of texas than the mainstream mitt romney, jack kennedy was hoping to run again the barry

kennedy was fiercely opposed to lyndon johnson ever becoming president and even talked with brother robert about preventing it from happening. johnson was sworn in after jfk's assassination. >>> and in sweden, you don't see this every day. a drunk moose got stuck in a tree after eating too many fermented apples. apparently it's not uncommon there. after some branches were sawed off to help the moose, it eventually sobered up, got back up and returned to the woods. happy ending there. >>> now here's an early look at how wall street will kick off the day. the dow opens at 11,295 after falling 119 points yesterday. the s&p was down 12 points. the nasdaq lost 19. taking a look at overseas trading this morning, the nikkei dipped 55 points. while in hong kong, the hang seng shed 46. >>> when the fed chairman speaks, wall street listens, and yesterday investors didn't like what they didn't hear. stocks tumbled after fed chief ben bernanke delivered an economic outlook which included no indications of new stimulus measures. investors had been hoping for some kind of cash injection to boost the fla

i missed it once and waited a whole year regretting the lost chance to track the lyndon leaves tiny migration. the next fall, refusing to endure that state of desolation again i asked everyone who loved me to please meet me just south of the border. we ordered green mussels and popcorn shrimp. the shrimp beat the mussels to the table. i drank for pleasure but since i left that state i hadn't found anything delicious so iate all the mussels. crouched, later in that state betrayal that come from learning some green things are not good. considering the law averages that a body in motion stays in motion unless faced with an equal or opposite force, peer pressure, skitology the projected near devastation of world forest should population the motdz of toilet paper consumption. germs vary. my role in the pressing the mean agent of common human hygiene i knew i never wanted to be near that state again. with extradition i was hardly away at all. when i first rolled over my parents were pleased and i left the state of never having rolled before. ditto, something on all fours to crawling. and once i cou

he went on to lose to lyndon johnson, but many say his candidacy laid the historic groundwork for what was to become the reagan administration years. frank rich writes, "whatever perry's 2012's electoral fate, his lightning ascent is final proof if any further is needed in the day of tea party gop that a bipartisan consensus in america is as unachievable now as it was after 1964." i'm skeptical of what rich writes, but he's a smart guy. let's go to these questions, do you think, richard wolffe, you studied the politics of this presidency better than anybody, how do you see the argument here. let's start with the right wing, is this going to be a right-wing victory in this nomination process? when it ends up in tampa next fall, at this time next year, will we end up with a conservative candidate? >> i'll put money on that. the energy of the party is for an extreme candidate that doesn't want to have anything to do with the center, with moderates, with obama's position. >> that's what i think. i think the party of heat and hatred to some extent needs a head, that's got to match the heat

president at the time lyndon b. johnson jolted congress.unds were budgeted to promote the performing arts in. 1965, the national endowment for the arts, nea, was created, and the national endowment also for the humanities, the neh, created too. both were included in president john on's budgeted program, great society. now fast-forward to today, a period of economic slowdown. what gets debudgeted? the humanities are often the first target and thought to be dispensable. the performing arts aren't only good for the soul, they're also good for the body, including the economic body. they generate revenue and fight poverty. four years ago, 8900 performing arts groups in the u.s. generated more than $13 billion in revenues. most of it taxable. in one year, americans spent $14.5 billion on performing arts, more than a $10 billion spent on box office movie tickets. studies have also shown that the odds make people physically and emotionally. let's suppose the national endowment for the arts got a budget this year of about $49 million. existed in 196

administration back to lyndon johnson has had the same basic bottom lines and obama hasn't departed from that. what he changed was the tone, of course. >> the claim about the 1967 borders was false, of course? >> right. there has been some twisting of obama's actual positions on this. he wanted to use the 1967 borders as a starting point but for a land swap to take place and essentially for the parties to work it out themselves and make their own piece -- basket -- peace. bull your question was -- what was your question? [laughter] >> about the political pressure the >> right, that's very important. i want to go back to that because the administration, i think you did see obama responding to some domestic political pressure from his own base when he was speaking before the u.n. this week and he was emphasizing we really do stand with israel. it was a much more lopsided story than he's told in the past, much more sympathetic to the israelis, and that was a message to his base. i don't know how much he's really at risk of losing jewish voters. gwen: and netanyahu was, got up and spoke toda
