what do you make of the fact madeleine albright's father was your professor? amazing one of life's coincidences, one of those six degrees of separation. i think that the professor had to be understood as somebody who really valued freedom. he was tremendously appreciative of what the united states had done for him and his family when they escaped, first as refugees from communism -- or nazism, and refugees from communism. he instilled that in me and i also know madelyn is a fierce defender of freedom. tavis: in this memoir, you talk a bit about this, and we will come back to this, that this book really ends where a lot of us hope it would begin. i know there will be another book that will perhaps talk about your policy positions and your role in government more intricately and intimately, but this is about your earlier life. that said, in a book written about you that you cooperate with, she writes a book and suggests that it is fascinating for heard that most all of your mentors have happened to be white males, starting with the first professor. i wonder what

the president. >>> and to discuss all of this we're joined now by former secretary of state madeleine albrightnd republican senator lindsey graham. he's just come back from a trip to iraq and afghanistan. thank you both for joining us. and let me ask you first, secretary albright because you have been to many of these summits. isn't it extraordinary that the president, u.s. leadership is being questioned so openly, not just by china but by germany who called the fed's action for instance clueless. >> actually not. i mean i think i've been to lots of meetings and they are discussions and i think the thing that people have to remember is that the g-20 was not set up to solve the world's economic problems. it was, it fact, set up as a way to bring the developing countries in to show what the various disagreements can be and to come to various consensus agreements and it takes a while. i think as the president said it's an incremental thing and i don't know, christiane, i was asked by the obama administration during the transition to meet with the g-20 when they were here and i met with everybody

partly sunny skies, madeleine albright a brief shower or two. i think most of you remain dry. high about 57 degrees. that is near normal. normal would be 56 degrees and a little bit of a breeze. not as much as yesterday. more in just a bit. >> thank you. >>> let's check in with julie. >> the top stretch of the beltway, they were busy clearing roadwork. all of the lanes now open with no incidents to report. 395 still in great shape crossing over the 14th street bridge. that's a check of your fox 5 on-time traffic. >>> we are following a developing story if the district. a metro station shut down after chunks of concrete crashed through the ceiling t happened yesterday at the farragut north station just before the evening commute. >> luckily, nobody was hurt. sarah simmons is live in northwest at the station with more on what riders can expect for the rush hour this morning. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. at this point, it is still really unclear whether or not farragut north will open this morning. they still have the gates down this morning. so at this point,

all of former secretaries of state and defense they could muster, jim baker was there, madeleine albright trying to point out that this should be bipartisan. and the fact that every republican push from reagan to bush 1 to bush 3, should push a russian arms agreement. >> the substance of that, this is a part of the outreach to reset the relationship and bring down nuclear stock piles and put inspection regimes in place in order to do that. the stagecraft is more interesting saying this is a bipartisan. foreign policy is an area where we should cooperate and to call the bluff here, what are you prepared to do? are you going to get things done? why would you block something like start treaty, you look overtly political or tactical. those are the screws they are trying to put to jon kyl of arizona. >> let's watch. >> this is not a democratic concept. this is not a republican concept. this is a concept of american national security that has been promoted by ronald reagan, george h.w. bush, bill clinton, george w. bush and now my administration. >> saying that ronald reagan said trust but veri

and that's why madeleine albright even henry kissinger and sam nun and bilko hen all met in d.c.eir astonishment that republicans in the senate led by jon kyl of all people are currently blocking the president's new treaty on nukes with russia. this group is not a democratic, partisan crew. these are not liberals. this is republican and democratic secretaries of state and defense saying this is one thing you guys really don't want to screw up. after this show of bipartisan force in washington today, the white house says they think they've got the votes to get the treaty past. as we mentioned earlier in the show, governor dick luger so incensed asked democrats to put this up for a vote and call the republicans' bluff. harry reid suggesting today he plans to do just that. we'll see. >> the importance of this treaty transcends numbers. we have listened to the wisdom in an old russian maxim, though my pronunciation may give you difficulty, the maxim is trust but verify. >> the man who negotiated the first of the treaties like this before between ronald reagan and the soviets talked l

more on this story and politics, plus a "this week" exclusive with former secretary of state madeleine albrightnd senator lindsey graham debating both president obama's foreign policy agenda coming up later this morning. dan? >>> in ohio this morning still no sign of a mother, her two children and a family friend who simply vanished on wednesday. now neighbors are joining the investigation, and the police are focusing on an unusual amount of blood that they say was found in the family's home. our mike marusarz is here with the latest. mike, good morning. >> reporter: dan, good morning to you. investigators now believe that unusual amount of blood is evidence that someone was injured in connection with the disappearance. an intense hunt is under way outside columbus, ohio. family, friends and even strangers searching for tina hermann, her two children, 13-year-old sarah and 10-year-old kody along with family friend stephanie sprang. stephanie's father shared a message for his daughter with "good morning america." >> steph, if you can hear me out there and feel my thoughts, know this, we love you

meeting yesterday involving former secretary kissinger and cohen and sam nun was there and madeleine albrightll of whom say it's imperative for american security, for our own security, that we have this treaty. we've had no verification procedures in russia since last december the 5th. this is not a casual affair. along with many other partisan situations. so, clearly, the president is in favor of getting on with it now, and one can wish that things might have happened very differently, but this is too late to worry about that. >> what do you say to senator kyl and your other republican colleagues who are, in effect, going to kill this thing if it doesn't get passed by the end of this year? >> well, i think i'll try to say their self-interest is in doing it now because that is clearly going to enhance not only american security but also it's going to make possible the administration's support for immediate budget work on our own nuclear situation. and refurbishment at the laboratories. if we fail to act now, my own prediction is that senator kyl's objectives are unlikely to occur either, that

states and she is not even on the level of other women who have aspired to that hillary clinton, madeleine albrightzza rice, she could not even hold her own in a room with any of them. she she can hardly complete a sentence correctly so i think it is important to put her in her place and understand who we are dealing with. >> cheri, on the heels of that, sarah palin believe she is could beat president obama in 2012. many political observers will agree she might win a primary, indeed, but a general election would be a much tougher test. what are your thoughts on that? >> she is an enormously influential woman. she he has been a governor. she was on the -- you know, ran as vice president, so she definitely has the credibility, if you watched her when she was governor, this is not a dumb woman. i do wish she would concentrate on focusing more on that's expect of what she has to offer but the celebrity money making aspect was presented to her so that is a legitimate choice as well. i don't know if it is necessarily compatible with running for president but it certainly is compatible with having a voice

he was madeleine albright's father. he taught me about diplomacy and things international and soviet. the soviet union, and all of a sudden i knew what i wanted to do. and i went out and i told my parents, i want to be a soviet special. now i first did say what a nice black girl from birmingham talk about being a soviet special is? they just said, go for it. so they're a couple of important lessons in their for young folks like you. first of all, nobody is so confident that day, at your age, or even older, that they are just sure that they are going to be great, turn out to be terrific at what they do. when people are that confident, there's something wrong with them, all right? [laughter] secondly, you need to find what you are passionate about. not to put you, like, but which are passionate about it what is really interesting to you? and you have a long time to do that. you've got a couple more years of high school, and then you've got college, so you've got a little time to find out. >> i graduate next to. >> and you
