the year after i finished at mississippi state in 1975, i bought a farm.the federal bureaucracy has run me off from the farm. we need to get back to our constitutional republic. our foundation of our country was not socialism. it was people getting out and working. i know that today there are about 30 million government workers. i had to become one of them when i left the farm. you cannot make any money farming anymore. there are 25 million manufacturing jobs. i am asking when they are going to realize that it is the physical economy that is going down the tubes and quit worrying about the financial economy? guest: thank you so much, and, ago, bulldogs -- and go, bulldogs. this stimulus bill -- as i said, february 17 makes of the one year on the stimulus bill. what it did was stimulate the government and stimulated growth in government. what he is talking about is when you look at all of the jobs creation in the country and where job growth has been -- and did you see it in manufacturing? no. did you see it in retail? no. what you saw it in was in governme

a year after i finished mississippi state in 1965 i bought a 600 acre farm and i farmed for 30 yearsight? one of the things that we hear from so many people is that this stimulus bill -- as iw3ç said, february 17 is one year the marker on that stimulus bill. what it did was to stimulate big government. it stimulatedç growth in government. what the caller isi] talking abt is when you look at all of the jobs creation in the country and where jobs growth has been -- did you see it in manufacturing? noç. did you see it in retail? no. what you saw it in the is government sector jobs. çand the public sector job is where the growth is. sector jobs getting the pay checks and make money and sending the money in, in order for there to be those government jobs. and many people are beginning to look at these numbers -- i think this is one of the great things that comes from having some of this -- soç muchçó of this information available online. because when reports come out, susan, like you are talking about, so many of our constituents go and log on and read some of the reports and then th

that was a mississippi problem, about the welfare of the state. we need to find people who can come with us enchant about this. -- and chant about this. we said, a birthday. we know we can find some white people in mississippi on earth day.

. >> the state of mississippi has the largest obesity rate in the country. that there are many reasons for this, one is because of fried food and it tastes so good. i.t. my grandmother used to cook, but we have to do things in moderation. some people take even moderation, but especially eating we have to do in moderation. mayor johnson of mississippi, is a great example of how we express this issue is not a political issue. it goes across parties. and he is done phenomenal things down there in mississippi, building parks, building playgrounds, walkways, where people can get out and exercise. but also bringing back farmers markets in places for organic and fresh food. mayor johnson? [applause] >> i am honored to be here -- thank you very much for inviting me, and i'm here to represent my city and a great state of mississippi. and you may wonder why a mayor is out there. i want to talk about things mayors can do. and aldermen and counsel people. there are things we can initiate. one of those things are partnerships. i have found that the state board of health,

you can see that more and more people are without health insurance in states like florida, mississippico and arizona. more than 19% of the population uninsured in other states. it's between 16-19%. in the northeast, states like maine and connecticut, minnesota, jie, less than 10% without health insurance. certainlyly the extent that they need the medical care. very costly. this is somethingÑi medicaid ha to cough k0÷ for. it is a fraction of our obligations for a very popular system that incidences the elderly, which you'd really have to pry from a lot of people's cold hands if the government argued we had to slash costs here. i really did think the populous is conveying the immigration. on the other hand, i encourage the caller to come to where i'm sitting right now, new york city.Ñi look around you here. try to get lo mien delivered and who brings it to your door. try to imagine the city without the people who reallyçó toil in the shadows behind the scenes in foodÑi service and at the cleaners in transportation, most cities in the united states right now know there are day laborers l

one of the reasons foreign companies that came to the united states opened plants in mississippi and alabama and using those plans to neutralize the fear of buying a foreign car. would you have unharmed of buying a car 75% of american parts to pay taxes and kids went to school and lives in the subdivision, as american as any other how do you say that is not an american car? i was deeply interested in these people. i wanted to about them, the committees and the states that tried so hard to get the plants. i found it was not just the auto industry is something going on across the american economy. >> host: a much broader phenomenon. thinking of the sharp contrast how business do business in the united states we have governors and other public officials seemingly do everything they can to attract companies to, set up shop but on the other hand, we have people who might subscribe to the title a negative reading, the selling of the american economy. it is the bad idea in the short run the long term it is a loss of control and a bad thing for the u.s. economy. do have a sense of the same v

i'm here to represent the city of hernando and the great state of mississippi. i want to talk about things mayors can do. and council peopler. there are things that we can initiate. and one of those things are partnerships. i've found that the state board of health, the health department, they want to work with us. they have all of the knowledge. but they don't quite know how to get it to the people. that's what we are good at, get ting the word to the people, partner with groups like national cities to train other mayors. there are lots of partnerships we can form. i'd like to talk about those. i'm not going to talk about all of those today. in a minute, you're going to hear mayor tony come up and speak. you're going to see a difference. first thing, i don't have an accent and he does. [laughter] >> next thing, is he comes from large city in the northeast, i come from a small town in the south. the other thing is as it was mentioned earlier, we come from different political parties. but i think on the childhood obesity, we're in lock step. we're going to work to

states navy and honoring medgar evers. some context is necessary here. mississippil rights movement, mississippi was last to the civil rights movement. and there was a reason for that. because it was delayed, a number of the citizens began february, 1960, just 50 years ago, that was celebrated just yesterday with the opening of a civil rights museum in greensboro. years passed, and you did not see young people coming forward in mississippi, young and foolish, young law student because mississippi was so heralded for its reputation for violently opposing civil rights, that's where i wanted to be. from my first day in mississippi in june of 1963, i was baptized by christ. i spent the day with medgar evers. i was only a second-year law student, but there were so few people with the skills associated with lawyers who had been in the movement that he tried to get me to stay in jackson, but i had committed to bob moses, the legendary head of a tiny movement in the delta area of mississippi to go to the mississippi delta. i spent the day with medgar evers taking me to meet

they were changing was that foreign companies that come to the united states, had opened plants in ohio and indiana and mississippi and alabama and reusing their american plants to neutralize this the year of buying a foreign car. when you had a honda workers in ohio who was building a car with 75 percent of american parts to drove from his subdivision outside columbus and paid taxes and kids went to school. essentially as american as any on-line. i was deeply interested in these people. i want to know about the state to tried so hard to get these plants. it was not just the auto industry. it was something that was going on across the american economy. >> a much of a broader phenomenon. i was struck as i read the book by the sharp contrasts in the way that people have thought about foreign companies doing business in the united states. on the one hand we have governors and other public officials seemingly doing everything they can to attract companies to come set up shops in their states or locales. and the other hand we have people sort of subscribing to the negative reading of your title, "the selling of the ame

that louisiana isn't an extraordinary state, but we have high poverty relative to other states, just like mississippi and alabama, west virginia. we know who our cohorts are. we have been at this a long time. and for us, the federal government says if you try to cover your poor, we will pick up 70% for you, which is the right thing to do. the federal government should help the poor states a little bit more than the wealthier states. it's actually what's taught in the bible. i wish we would follow it a little bit more around here. but anyway, so for years this is what's occurred. 1999, the federal government paid 70 cents of every dollar. you can see basically, and it's done by an income calculation, because our income, we have gotten a little bit richer here you can see, a little bit richer, a little bit poorer, but a little bit richer. all of a sudden, because of a unique set of circumstances that happened because of katrina and rita and ike and gustav. not because of any politics up here, but because of hurricanes and levee breaks and a catastrophic flood and an influx of federal dollars which came

america's largest, wealthiest and most heavily populated state with 20% of the american population. it stretched all the way to the mississippiver. and all the way up north to the great lakes. it was enormous. and the prestige and importance of its governor was akin to the governors of california, illinois, new york, and texas put together today. and monroe was not only governor of america's most important state. he was a national hero in the revolutionary war. in other words, he was a giant in his day. and i don't understand why historians ignore him, which is why i wrote this book. to restore him. to his rightful place in american history. as the most important president in the early days of our nation. now, some historians elevate john adams to historical prominence and they deity thomas jefferson and george washington. but they were disastrous presidents. they left the nation worse off than it had been when washington seated acceded them to the president. john adams -- declared a naval war of the french. he strips americans of their first amendment of free speech and freedom of the press. thomas jefferson imposed a trade
