from the clinton administration, former secretary of defense bill cohn, secretary of state madeleine albrightwhat a privilege to have you both here. >> thank you. >> first of all, iran. lets talk about united states and allies as a result of partly secret negotiations, bill, is in the middle of working out a preliminary deal. there's bumps along the road. is this a good thing or bad thing? >> we don't know at this particular point. i think what happened in the middle east with iran, we have lost support with our key allies who no longer trust us, frankly. the united arab emirates, saudi arabia, others in the region in the way in which this was handled and the fact it's ambiguous in terms of iran having an enrichment capability. u.n. security council precluded enrichment. it appears we're going to allow them to enrich at a level below 20%, around 5%. but under any circumstances allowing them to enrich does pose a problem in the future. we'll have to wait and see. i think we've lost a lot of support in the region. number one, because of the agreement itself which the iranians say is simply a pr

>> i put that down as madeleine albright's most embarrassing moments. you we know they were contemplating the possibility of bill clinton going to pyongyang before his term expired. but this potential trip to tehran would take the cakes. even worse than bill clinton going to north korea. bill: thank you for your time today. martha: there are new numbers just released on the leading, math and science scores of children around the world. where does the united states rank? stick around. bill: why the nfl will not air this commercial. >> for my family's safety is my highest priority. i am responsible for their protection. in the nation, we know how you feel about your car. so when coverage really counts, count on nationwide insurance. because what's precious to you is precious to us. ♪ love, love is strange just another way we put members first. because we don't have shareholders. join the nation. ♪ baby... ♪ nationwide is on your side ♪ bill: disgusting, risque, but the nfl drawing the line when it comes to this spot. >> aim responsible for their protectio

well that's an altruism of how we're so different but you see it in everybody you see madeleine albright the secretary of state and clinton says if we have to use force it's because where the united states where the indispensable nation has reclaimed says the same thing obama says the same thing it's not is that for obama it's different obama recently again but over and over again in the beginning was the ministration he said well i believe in american exceptionalism just as the brits believe in british exceptionalism and the greeks and greek exceptionalism he got it but now he got attacked he got pilloried by the right wingers led by mike huckabee for saying that now he's out there waving the flag talking about american exceptionalism what does this do to our standing is the notion. that. we think there's an arrogance implied in the universe you know it's the problem is that we've never had a war that came to this homeland we never experienced it i i have i have i have felt a slice of it in vietnam it was a no i got it war destroys both sides the problem with the victor in a war is that

i interviewed madeleine albright and also condoleezza rice who is the next woman secretary of state and i wanted to read one excerpt because i felt particularly for this crowd do it appreciate that. was the best preparation for the rough-and-tumble of your life today being the provost of stanford. in an academic administration where you have 1400 extremely smart people who are basically independent contractors because faculty don't believe that they have any bosses. i learned when i was necessary to persuade people, when it was necessary to inform or necessary through demand. of learning to work in that environment was the most important thing and learning how to be tough enough to be with very strong personalities helped this is for you. [laughter] the next chapter that i want to talk about is marjorie in the journalism feature i talk about the world war ii journalists. margaret was a great photographer and she won the pulitzer prize for journalism. she was covering world war ii what to win the pulitzer prize and was quite an interesting person. the most interesting part of her story i

now to madeleine albright who was a u.s. ambassador in the first carry and secretary of state in the second term so very aware of how important intelligence is and how important u.s. leadership is and she was one of the earliest advocates for stronger u.s. leadership in the balkans and history has proven quite clearly she was on the right side of history before many wear and the documents that have been released today document how she was pushing and pushing and pushing and there is one that was in february of 1993, maybe a month, in the principles committee meeting which is cabinet level interagency meeting saying the policy was legitimizing ethnic cleansing. this is a woman who does not mince words and calling our policy pallid. there are some wonderful quotes in these documents, throughout the early days of this policy being developed, she was trying to keep the pressure on the need to recognize ethnic cleansing. we had to keep the process of justice and end the genocide at the forefront and she was not afraid to put the

some of the big ideas that -- wrote about, thought about, and i want to start with secretary madeleine albright, and ask you to reflect on something that is in the last several of the books by "zbig," the idea that a fundamental thing is happening and the world that his son immediately deductible is something he calls the global political awakening. it is something you see in the arab world most vividly, but do this every world, china, russia, something that certainly you were seeing with your secretary. fascinating and buts about how this is playing of, what it means for america, how we should respond. >> a cue, and let me say, as i said earlier, i think the brilliance of "zbig" is that he had the capability of analyzing the world as it is at the time and be able to think for and have larger thought. and i do think those of those that are raised in a different situation where you had two blocks looking at each other in the u.s.-soviet relationship an understanding of the changes that have come about not only with the fall of the wall but just generally a capability of analyzing. i have to say

"sarah palin's feminine appearance, charm, and leadership suggest the leadership of madeleine albright or janet reno. with her down-home extensions, she makes harsh feminist diatribes seem empty, meaning that come out of touch, and out of date. her savvy complex demeanor reflects herself as a wife, mother, and a compost career woman." get it all in there. "like margaret thatcher, her soft exterior is a contrast to her tough inner strength. palin simply lights up the room when she walks in." here is a way to talk about these organizations -- [laughter] i'm just reading the quote. it is really important for these organizations to do this. part of the mission is to represent women. basically, there is this battle with feminist organizations to say, no, we represent women. it fosters one of their goals. conservative women also argue that palin and bachmann's bid for office represents what feminists have longed for, which is women's entrance into the higher-level office. but it argues that it feminists had really cared about women in office, they would have supported palin and bachmann. it

[laughter] madeleine albright said, and boy, is she right, there is a cold place in hell for women who do not support women. and aing on women mentors support group of women, not just your families, although there may be strong women in your families, but use those support networks, but also in you it your self. pay it forward. it is so important that you become the mentors and people who inspire younger women who are wondering whether they can get out of their comfort zone. i bet there were strong women in your life you may be did not do crazy things you did, but maybe in your own family got out of the comfort zones. i am sure there were other saw, even inu india, who were role models for at least the kind of journey you wanted. think role models necessarily have to be women, and i do not think mentors have to be women. i think men can be incredibly helpful, but it is up to us to reach out, but i totally agree with you about the point about building the network. culinary, it is nice to have a conversation with rachel earlier, but the statistics of leadership of women in culinary, and

have got to remember, when madeleine albright went to north with theirealt over nucleart time and wassedly -- they wanted uranium for a nuclear power plant. they took that uranium and refined and made into a nuclear weapon. they also got missile systems from china. i do not trust this administration dealing with iran at all. i think we will come out on the losing end. host: cumbersome? -- congressman? guest: i agree. all the things i have said, he said the same thing. host: tweeting in. why don't you lower the sanctions first as a jester, you can put them back? -- as a gesture, you can put them back? guest: once you let the monkeys out of the barrel -- you are having the wrong getting into a pack. we are going to reward you for being bad. if you raise kids or anything like that, you do not reword that behavior. why do anything when behavior has been that. i do not understand the logic. it seems like a folly to believe will act differently than it has ever acted before in the last 40 years. thatis silly to belief they are going to change all of the sudden just because. host: the new ro

also, you got to remember what madeleine albright went to north korea and dealt with the leader at that time over nuclear power plant and supposedly they wanted uranium for the nuclear power plant. they took back uranium and refined it needed in to a nuclear weapon. they also got missile systems in china. i do not trust this administration dealing with iran at all. i think will come out on the losing end of it. >> host: congressman? >> guest: i agree. all things he basically said the same thing. >> host: the american heritage in this paper to a lower the sanctions first? as a gesture command can put sanctions back, can't you? >> guest: is harder that way. once you let the monkeys out of the barrel, he'll have iran getting into opec now. they'll have to make room for oil. you let the iranians know that we're going to reward you for being bad. you reward good behavior. i don't understand the logic once again. it seems like total folly to believe that iran would be different than the last 40 years. that is kind of silly >> guest: we have to do with the way it is. in our brain back to us an

madeleine albright, wendy sherman went to north korea in 2000 and i went with them about negotiating a deal on the missiles as well, and the negotiations went well. they went so well that bill clinton had to decide and fli ia coin at the end this presidency whether going to go to north korea or if he was going to try to finalize an arab-israeli peace agreement he and he decided for the arab-israeli peace agreement. wrong choice. he probably could have gotten the north korean agreement. george w. bush came in. colin powell wanted to pick up where clinton left off. he had his hat handed to him. he was humiliated for making that statement. john bolton who was in charge of nonproliferation, state department, went about leaking information that the north koreans might have a secret program to enrich uranium and there was a confrontation in 2002, and low and behold the north koreans admitted they were indeed investigating and richmond and the whole deal fell apart. the north koreans left v. npt, building reactor and tested weapons. there were other agreements wert were reached with the nor

have got to remember, when madeleine albright went to north with theirealt over nucleart time and wassupposedly -- they wanted uranium for a nuclear power plant. they took that uranium and refined and made into a nuclear weapon. they also got missile systems from china. i do not trust this administration dealing with iran at all. i think we will come out on the losing end. host: cumbersome? -- congressman? guest: i agree. all the things i have said, he said the same thing. host: tweeting in. why don't you lower the sanctions first as a jester, you can put them back? -- as a gesture, you can put them back? guest: once you let the monkeys out of the barrel -- you are having the wrong getting into a pack. we are going to reward you for being bad. if you raise kids or anything like that, you do not reword that behavior. why do anything when behavior has been that. i do not understand the logic. it seems like a folly to believe will act differently than it has ever acted before in the last 40 years. thatis silly to belief they are going to change all of the sudden just because. host: the n

the clinton administration, wendy sherman, madeleine albrigget -- albright agreed to a provision that would have prevented them, did prevent them from inspecting the north korean nuclear facilities for at least five or so years. which ended up being enough time for them to pursue their nuclear weapons. mean, for president clinton, madeleine albright, wendy sherman, kind of remind me of the repossession guy that jeff foxworthy talked about, coming to his house when he was 4, telling him he hadn't -- when he was poor telling him he hadn't made his payment in months so he had to take the car. foxworthy begged him not to take the car, he's got to have it to get back on his feet to make a living. the guy said, i have to leave either with a car or cash or a check to which foxworthy said he replied, you'll take a check? why didn't you say you'll take a check. sure, i can write you a check. that's what the north koreans did. oh, you mean in return for new, sophisticated nuclear power plants and fuel, you'll take just a promise from us that we won't pursue nuclear weapons? why didn't you say t

also, you got to remember when madeleine albright went to north korea and dealt with over eader at that time -- it was nuclear power plant and supposedly they wanted nuclear -- they wanted uranium for the nuclear power plant. they took that uranium and they refined it and they made it into a nuclear weapon. they also got missile systems from china. i do not trust this administration dealing with iran at all. i think we'll come out on the losing end of it. host: ok. congressman. guest: i agree. host: why, explain. guest: because all the things he said i basically said the same thing. host: american hero tweets in this -- why don't you lower the sanctions first? as a gesture, you can put the sanctions back, can't you? guest: yeah. it's harder that way. once you let the monkeys out of the barrel here, you'll have iran getting into opec now. they'll have to make room for them producing oil. it's going to let the iranians know, hey, we're going to reward you for being bad. and whether you raise kids or anything like that, you know you don't reward bad behavior. you reward good behavior. why

led by wendy sherman, who was the policy director for north korea when president clinton and madeleine albright made that atrocious deal to give them nuclear power plants, nuclear help and in return all they had to do was promise not to develop nuclear weapons, which they readily did, and in return the clinton administration, and they agreed not to inspect their nuclear facilities. what amounted to about five years, gave them plenty of time to develop nukes. if someone is evil enough to behead, to brutalize, to persecute innocent people, to somehow think it's a noble thing, to terrorize and kill innocent people, how do you not understand that they are also capable of lying as well? you want to trust people that want to kill you and have said so many times. i think it's time we wake up. the world is less safe because of some of the actions that we have taken. we need to be wise about what jesus ecause just as said, to whom much is given of him, much will be required. we've been given much. we've been blessed more than any nation in the history of the world. we have more freedoms. we have more as
