good morning, i'm melissa harris-perry. for the first time in nearly a decade, iran agreed to temporarily halt their nuclear program. the united states along with five other major world powers announced the deal last night after marathon negotiations in geneva, switzerland. it's set to last six months while they work to reach a more comprehensive deal. under the plan, iran agreed to stop enriching uranium beyond 5%. it's sufficient for energy, but not bomb making. the stockpile beyond that level will be diluted or converted so it cannot be used for weapons purposes. they will agree to nuclear inspections including daily visits to some facilities. in exchange, the u.s. agreed to provide $7 billion in sanctions relief. last night, president obama hailed the agreement as a step toward a world that is more secure. >> these are substantial limitations which will help prevent iran from building a nuclear weapon. simply put, they cut off iran's most likely paths to a bomb. meanwhile, this first step will create time and space over

i'm joined by colleague and the host of the melissa harris perry show and howard dean. thanks to you both. >> absolutely. >> okay. so, melissa, i don't have to say much. katrina? >> yeah. yes. so, i mean, as you know, folks watch the show know, i live in new orleans. we are still -- there is one katrina. ours. and there is -- katrina is not a metaphor. it's a reality, happened to real people and continues to happen to us. >> that's right. >> here's where the comparison is apt. and i think you know about the psychological notion of projection. basically what we see here is a massive projection. what is apt about that metaphor is that the response on the right to the affordable care act is like the presidential response of george w. bush to hurricane katrina. >> good point. >> think about what katrina was. it's an actual thing that happens but the disaster is caused bay structural failure of the federal levees. a failure and then have the disproportionate impact on poor people, the elderly and people of color. >> absolutely. >> same thing is happening here. the federal gov

joining us now is melissa harris-perry with her economist show. >> i'm supposed to speak to this questionwhether it was six people or 250. i have no idea how many people signed up. >> here is a theory i'm floating. they should just say, how do these six people get through. they are the glitches. >> it's not a small point. we just shut down the government because of angered irritation over the idea that any american would have to sign up for obama care. then the first act of government after reopening is to have hearings about the fact people can't sign up for the thing, this entire blockade against. feels what the administration is having a challenge with, a capacity to sell this program, which has everything to do with the fact there are very real beneficiaries of the aca expansion most importantly around medicaid. but we get to that conversation because we're talking about the glitches in the website. >> may i remind us this information comes from a leaked report from none other than darrell issa. i'm going to say he's got a little history of cherry picking the information he leaks. we

i'm melissa harris-perry. if i asked you what day is november 5th and you answered, duh, melissa, it's tuesday, instead of, enthusiastically offering the alternate correct answer, it's election day in america! well, you're in good company. because it's election day 2013, an odd number, which makes this an off year election. and well, to be honest, we tend not to get too excited about off year elections if voter turnout is any indication. in fact, it's not uncommon for voter turnout percentages in some off year state and local elections to be in the single digits. and that's among people who live in the jurisdictions that will be directly impacted by the outcomes of those elections. given the level of disinterest among people who actually have to live with the consequences of off year elections, finding a reason to care about the electoral politics of a state where you don't live is probably asking a lot. but here's why you might want to start paying attention. because you may not be one of those civically engag

i'm melissa harris-perry. week we have been looking back in remembrance to the day 50 years ago yesterday that an assassin's bullet took the life of president john f. kennedy. the death of president kennedy, who has remained america's most popular president since he died, still looms large in the national consciousness. the moment so sered into our memory that americans old enough to remember it can readily recall where they were and what they were doing when they heard the news on november 22nd, 1963. now, ask those same people what they were doing the next day. those memories are likely a lot fuzzier. even though that day, november 23rd, 1963, marked another pivotal moment in american political history. it was the first full day on the job for kennedy's condusuccesso president lyndon baines johnson. johnson was sworn in just two hours after president kennedy was killed. it's a moment very few people remember because it was a moment very few people saw. it was a stark contrast to the bloody public spectacle o

i'm melissa harris-perry. last month we were cheering president obama for his defiance in the face of the republicans' shutdown and their threat to breach the debt ceiling. the republicans wanted to gut the affordable care act. the president was having none of it. >> as long as i am president, i will not give in to reckless demands by some in the republican party to deny affordable health insurance to millions of hardworking americans. i will not negotiate over congress' responsibility to pay bills it's already racked up. nobody gets to hurt our economy and millions of hardworking families over law you don't like. >> he dug in his heels for weeks. he refused to budge on the aca. instead, he demanded that republicans vote to reopen the government and raise the debt ceiling. and it worked. on october 16th, congress struck a deal to do both. good job, mr. president. who says democrats always cave? well, this week that guy, the defiance guy, he was nowhere to be found. republicans had been howling for the aca's he

i'm melissa harris-perry. on thursday night, former secretary of state, hillary clinton, asked and sort of answered a big question on the mind of many americans. no, not whether or not she's going to run for president. instead, the question was this. what place will our country have in the world going forward? >> i hear all this talk about how we need to withdraw from the world. i've heard even tonight some references to the really unfortunate consequences of sequester and budget cuts. we have to decide if we intend to continue america's global leadership. >> all right, maybe she did just answer the question about whether or not she is running. because former secretary of state clinton just articulated an interventionist argument that puts her squarely at odds with potential republican opponents, like the withdraw-minded senator rand paul and the globally inexperienced governor chris christie. clinton's comments about the necessity of u.s. leadership come at a heady time, as american's deeply dysfunctional dom
