a little different for michelle obama, but for barack obama there is this question of, okay, he's not going to endorse his vice president at least until deep in the primary, if it comes to that point, but will he at least say something at all about his character. he put out a statement on day one testifying to his character, but does he do something like that down the road i think is going to be a key question especially as biden gets hit harder and harder. >> that's a good point. if he's out there speaking to groups, he's going to be asked the question. it's not about endorsing, josh, but answering the question about saying something nice about joe biden. that in and of itself could give him that. >> this is a rough question for obamas. they on the one hand believe biden is a genuinely decent person, who obviously isn't racist and some of the accusations he's gotten from the left. on the other hand they emphatically don't want to endorse -- they don't want to seem as if they are putting their thumb on the scale for biden and inject themselves into the democratic primary process. i'm

up until about a decade ago, when first lady michelle obama install the current white house vegetable garden, fresh produce would not have been the first thing that came to people's minds. that's because prior to 2009, there was no series cultivation of fruits or vegetables at the white house for nearly 150 years. the truth is, for much of the 19th century, the white house group a great deal of its own food. as with the first trees, the first vegetable seeds were planted under madison and ordered by jefferson in the waning days of his administration. these included cabbage, broccoli, radish, cucumbers, leeks. turnips and john quincy adams wrote in his diary about planting deep blood colored beats, yellow flowered parsnips, enormous leaved horseradish, and tall and slender jerusalem artichokes. fun fact, jerusalem artichokes are neither artichokes nor from the holy land. they are a type of sunflower native to north america that gross a tuber which is rather like a potato. adams mentioned herbs such as me and sage, as well as strawberry and peaches grown by his skilled gardener. after h

thatr the vegetable garden michelle obama was promoting, has expanded, and is much of it organic? are you really promoting heirloom varieties? jonathan: to the best of my knowledge it is the same size, but is being maintained at the same standards. i do believe a lot of it is organic. i am not 100% sure. that is up to the discretion of the first lady. heirloom varieties, yes, they are not the sole focus, but i during the obama administration there was a strong focus on growing some of thomas jefferson's favorite vegetables. final question. jonathan: how was the gardens financed in the first hundred years? frankly, a lot of this came out of the president's own pocket. some of it did come from congressional appropriations. a good example i can give is, i do not have time to necessarily go into some of these details, but the conservatory in some of the green houses burned down not once, but twice. rather than appropriate money for an iron superstructure, they just kept rebuilding it out of wood. it gets kind of moist in the greenhouse, he gets wet and moisture and would don't really

i mean, michelle obama's response is basically sips tea, i have nothing to say, right? she's not going to. here's what's key, though, ali. guess what would have been more important than an endorsement, had vice president biden been there. it's one of the largest gatherings of african-american women of all classes and biden wasn't there. he's got to be out talking to the kinds of voters that matter. african-american women are the backbone by turnout and interest and passion in the democratic party. joe biden's got to fix that problem on his own. >> all right. michigan congressman justin amash, this is new, is not ruling out running for president. in a july 4th op-ed in "the washington post," amash declared his independence from the republican party. he criticized both parties, saying the two-party system has evolved into an existential threat to american principles and institutions. now, amash had been the only republican in congress to support an impeachment inquiry into president trump. in an interview on sunday, he was asked what he's heard privately from republicans

look, i think first of all michelle obama, she's the one to say she's not political.be political. she's retired from politics. and i think what you just saw is her being really, really careful. she and former president obama know that anything they say, anything positive or negative they say about anybody will be kind of judged and picked through to see kind of what they think. and as keith said, and i couldn't agree more, they made a strategic decision to stay out of this. maybe not forever but for now. because they think that's the best way to get the party and the people are supporting all 24 candidates, or 23 now, united behind donald trump. that's where their focus is. >> then keith this brings me to the issue that biden has, okay? which is that he's currently defining himself by barack obama, who is not currently willing to define himself by joe biden. okay? so you have joe biden falling in the polls after the last debate. joe biden looking to find his footing as who am i. and yet this is what we keep hearing from him. this is just the past few days. >> barack o

you remember your interview, the frustration with michelle obama. >> yeah. >> remember the team's frustration that barack obama had to convince black voters that voting for him was in their personal interest. because people vote for their very specific personal best interests. they don't vote for an idea. they don't vote for a symbol. they vote to make their household better. and so i think what we're seeing right now in these folks it's awfully early. but what we're seeing in the polls are a lot of people, if you put up the numbers again about, you know, the head to heads, right now it's joe biden who's the only one that's clearly ahead because a lot of democrats still think despite his poor debate performance believe that joe biden has the best chance to beat donald trump. >> and counter to the point that it's early, i mean, the ratings for the democratic debate were pretty high. people are watching. i think this is a presidency that has people on the edge of their seat. that's a little bit donald trump driven, that's the way he rolls and perhaps some are very worried about the direction th
