the question is, whether these contagions reached the upper missouri river during the 15 hundreds. now, interestingly the 1st european trade item would have been a sparse handful of glass beads, maybe two iron implements, the 1st european trade items appear in mandan theological sites right around the year 1600. almost exactly the same time that the double ditch population collapsed. logic suggestscollapsed. logic suggests that knew trade item the new contagions might have arrived around the same time now, uncertainty dissipates with the passage of time, by the early 17 hundreds, their life was in a people again to do the arrival of the horse, another new species to the americas. the horses really reintroduced. and place people's embraced horses after new mexico's pueblo revolt of 1680 made them more widely accessible, and horses then spread northward through the 17 hundreds. mandan probably got there 1st horse around the year 1740. horses, as you can imagine, make more frequent interaction between peoples than ever before. and back in the great plains in the absence of the horse,

this was at the confluence of the knife river and the missouri. and those hard river villages, traditional villages, once home to thousands became ghost towns. lewis and clark passed through 23 years after this epidemic, and they map the empty town sites as they traveled upstream. so essentially what happened is that the mandan and then northerly neighbors round of living in a configuration of towns of the practice to a configuration of townsfolk like this. and the mandan now numbered approximately 1500 people and all. that is 90 percent decline. now in the years that followed born diseases coursed across the planes. whooping cough struck the villages in the summer of 1806, possibly again in 1813 or 14, and then again in 1818 and 19. filling the air with hacking coughs and that desperate whistle like leasing that it gives the infection its name. the 1818 1819 whooping cough epidemic came hand-in-hand with an outbreak of measles. to diseases circulating at once. and the focal points of trade and commerce, the knife river villages, feet mandan villa

a missouri judge sanctioned attorneys representing the missouri state patrol for not producing a log of emails... that the state claims should remain confidential... because they contain communication between attorneys and their clients. the judge fined the missouri attorney general's office 95-hundred dollars and ordered the state's attorneys to produce the log by november 17th. three students were in a school bus involved in a crash today outside of ames... and none of them was injured. it happened just after four o'clock. this is along highway 30 at 580th avenue. police say the bus driver failed to yield and crashed into a car. three people in the car were treated for minor injuries. the three elementary-aged students on the bus were okay. police say the bus driver was ticketed. a des moines school bus driver says an intersection where busses drive everyday is so dangerous, it's just a matter of time before somebody gets killed. so, he's asking the city to install a 150- thousand dollar traffic light. this is the intersection of m- l-k and prospect road, right by the des moines sc

is that allowed in missouri? >> the only allowing that we have is if a member, before they retired, we have an option called a partial lump sum that allows a member to take a portion, it's either a 12, a 24, a 36-month portion, and what it does is give them that pension for those years that they take and reduces the pension that they receive. but they do get a lump sum. so if you have an individual who wants to pay off their house before they retire, they will work an additional three years and get that 36 partial lump sum so they can pay off their house. so it's a dime for dime transaction. there's no enhanced benefit for the system at all. >> but if something occurred unexpected after they had made their decisions about retirement, there's no options for them, perhaps, except something like these scam artists. >> they could potentially, in missouri, it's not allowed at all for our teachers, due to the law that was passed. prior to that, most of our teachers will call in. we have an unbelievable member education

what is the difference between politics in missouri and politics in missouri? i think some comes out in the book. >> guest: some are the same. it is more like drinking out of a fire hose here 24/7 if you are doing the job correctly. if you have staff senator, having people preparing questions and walk through the schedule and meet people and your staff tells you how to vote. but if you engage and are curious, it is an enormous amount of material to consume. i constantly wonder if i am adequately prepared and informed. i don't think i felt that with my jobs in missouri like this. the dysfunction is different. i had never served in a legislative body that was this dysfunctional. >> host: the highway bill is a good example. >> gues >> guest: you could not get boehner and mcconnell to agree. boehner was pushing a three month extension and mcconnell was saying a here extension. they are not even talking to each other. that is much more frustrating because it seems we are treading water and doing got you politics way more in congress. i think that is why so many vote

why were so many people going to see them in missouri?ell, part of it -- he wasn't necessarily unpopular at home. he's still the hometown hero. independence, missouri, has not had any other presidents. and they probably thought they could just walk right up and say hello to the trumans as they had in the past. how did they spend their post-white house years? ms. anslover: they were long ones. they were long ones. he wrote his memoirs, first of all, because he had to make money. he wasn't getting a pension. and several lucrative offers came his way, but he -- like bill was saying, he never believed anyone should trade on the presidency. so he wrote his memoirs and bess edited every single word. and that was their first project. and the establishment of the truman library. mr. seale: he was intimate to that, intimate to that, and believed very much that it was a matter of history, of interpreting history. and he did the original design himself for the exhibit. ms. swain: and kept an office there. and if you visit -- visit there today, you c

. >> i used to be the insurance commissioner in missouri. and at that time we had a cooperation agreement with the federal government. what missouri did was pass a law which prohibited any state official from even cooperating with the implementation of obamacare. so my friend who is the insurance commissioner now, is he prohibited by missouri state law by cooperating, and if he does cooperate then under this law any missourian can sue him personally because he is violating the law. that gives you an example how much opposition there has been. >> because the citizens of missouri passed a law that they did not want obamacare obamacare implemented in their state. he is responding what the voters said. this law in 200 different surveys only one law has shown the law more popular than unpopular. people don't like this law. they don't want to be told they have to pinches health insurance. >> i'm going to have to leave it there. whether we return, has the affordable care act as suggested earlier in the program, already picked the low hang fruit? bo

six months earlier i had been a young up-and-coming state senator in missouri. i was bounding up to see my attorneys one day. my heart was pounding and it had been mounting ever since earlier that morning when the feds have knocked on my door. the walls were closing in on me. back in 2004, five years earlier, i had run for united states congress. i've been in a race, it was an uphill battle. i run against a guy named russ carnahan. his father was a successful two-term governor of missouri who died tragically in a plane crash on the eve of the his u.s. senate election in 2000. his mother was a u.s. senator. his grandfather was a congressman and ambassador. his sister secretary of state. my dad was a golf coach and my mom worked with kids with special needs. so it was an uphill battle, but we ended up getting some traction. we had about 650 volunteers, most of them my former students. and a few current students actually. i always joked some people thought young people are apathetic it is amazing how much you can motivate them if you're an inspirational teacher and
