>> hispanics are not monolithic, and when you look at florida, you have a cuban-american community that has historically been very republican. i think people are interested and want to report hispanic candidates, they are good. if marco rubio had had a pro in negation reform position, he would be the candidate, but since he does not, he was not chosen. eventually, i think the more sober voices will have more weight. tavis: what you think is the future of marco rubio? he did not win the hispanic vote. what is your read on his future? >> he is an intelligent man. he is quite articulate. does he play in florida? i am not sure. does he play in taxes, i am not sure. marco rubio is seen in some ways of being the latino face of a party that is very harsh to latinos. >> the democratic mayor acquitted himself quite nicely. what is his future? >> he is probably the biggest star they have the right now. he is a very smart guy. he is highly educated and very different from a lot of other latino politicians. he is completely american in his point of view. i think it will pass over more than a lot of

it's something i have to relearn frequently that the large company i came from was a large monolithic corporation and 1ceo and pyramid up and trickled and everyone did what they did. government as you know we're are a highly decentralized independently elected, independently operated with our boards and commissions. as much as i would like to say i had the authority or will or desire to cast my will on the organization and have things happen it's not as simple as that, so a lot of my jobs and our jobs come down to partnership and discussion and consensus building and meetings and more meetings and unfortunately that takes more time than a linear top down structure so when i talk at conferences -- i was at dream force not long ago and having lunch with people "i don't understand government and how this works". i spent time educating people how government is today and how we're trying to change it and streamline it and maybe it more efficient but it's a challenge and it's a transition for a organization. i think like a battle ship city government is not easy to turn quickly. it's going

it was a better one of the man approached him also course monoliths will see you if you let a man with you as moon does shook his hand and the other man shot him. well as those after two shots my brother fell to the ground yet a year with eating with elsewhere. and took a look as chill when i heard the shots i looked down and saw he'd fallen. off another. one bullet went into his a list. another here another there. is a little the rest went in here. being there were twenty all it's. his shit there were seventeen bullet holes and three shots in his right arm. three men took part in as monday's murder. none of them have been convicted. or sent them to kill less mando who authored the crime you all know that they'd senorita i won the man who killed my son to stay in jail that. i eat it because they killed my son well now i'm worried because they're out for me here. very low and asking for justice he either has be here. mark you gave a special mass for his friend this monday. this bias bothered him and took these photos and videos. to remember that the dead live on through us. those who be

lot of people in our faith are glad that we're doing this because they don't want to be seen as a monolithicgion. mormonism has a long history of mormon women who are powerful and speak their mind. they were early suf randy johnson -- self-rajs. this is the tradition we've inherited from our former mormon feminist matriarchs really. what we hear from a lot of people is, you know, there are many different wrays to interpret the gospel. there are certainly a strand that you can take to a conservative place. but there is a very progressive side of mormonism which teaches that you cannot be equal in spiritual things unless you're equal in temporal things. those sorts of social justice aspects of mormonism are absolutely there and we have a viewpoint that other mormons have to accept. it is part of their own doctrine. >> john: right on. one of the criticisms we hear of the church is that black men weren't allowed to hold the priesthood until 1978. as a catholic, i get hung up on the fact that women still can't hold the priesthood and no one thinks to call the faiths sexist for this institutionali

it's not a monolithic voice.like the black church, obviously, there's been passionate debate since the president's statements about same-sex marriage earlier this year. there's been amazing debate and we have great scenes in the church but in families, families and friends getting together and really having an amazing kind of political debate with a lot of love. you see the diversity of opinions. >> i think there's a flipside so what s.e. is saying where there's some vois on the right who maybe aren't eager to allow african-americans to support president obama simply as a president. i'm thinking today of the reaction to colin pow rel announcing he will support obama from a second term. this is a bright bar columnist. colin powell was affirmative action general and he's supporting an affirmative action president. rush limbaugh he's doing it because he's black. mark my words, obama will be endorsed by powell against because he's black. there's a troubling attitude there as well. >> that goes to this whole question

wind nor sun's cruel wrath can force us from our charge into the endless night we stand our ground monolithic protectors of the broken spirit. 3. there was a place sacred beaconed by time. i remember. the new born grass trampled beneath the earth. no one else should die here. there was a flash, no, 2 secrets locked in a fire ball. the shift of wind the sudden weight of blue heat formless days worn past, changed since the coming of endless night. >> and my last poem -- speaks to world events. and now i'm also thinking about the atrocities in berma. called the world i leave you. once there were 2 towers then there were none. i searched among the rubble for bones of men. what kind of world i leave you, what's human left of race? what more can i give you to resurrect your faith? smiles, i give and laughter like rain, flakes of snow that gently splay against the window pain. light transformed to rainbow, sweat from a dancer's brow. giggles of rivers running down mountains, flowers unfolding to face the sky. pain from sclap nal's path. blood from solders punctured hearts still borns pushed from ach

we do not vote monolithically.vote the issues and the candidates in terms of their character and their stability and their ability to work on behalf of the issues that we think are important. karen is also right, you're right here, this is the politics of distraction. there's a few other things they want to distract your attention from. number one, general powell represents moderate democrats who are more centrist. he moves more toward the independent vote. it's a really important endorsement. it's also important for the black community because black folk respect colin powell even though we've had our issue was him in terms of his relationship with the bush administration. we have a tremendous amount of respect for his service and the ways in which he's honored our country with that service. it speaks volumes to the base, independents, and to moderate republicans. >> michelle, sununu issued a statement much so-called clarification. quote, colin powell is a friend and i suspect the endorsement decision he made, and

darker colors in those area, to make it look a little bit more than a solid block that is sort of monolithic in its form that runs between the two sites particularly the market street site. that is just my feeling. i don't know how the other commissioners feel. if you want to respond to that. >> fred pollock. commissioner antonini, the window patterning in the bay patterning includes a metal form, in a contrasting color; the windows are framed in this panel, to create this two-story rhythm in the bay. i also want to mention on the two-bedroom issues i may, there is a range of sizes; indeed the smaller sizes are in the 750 range but they go up to 1100 sq. ft. the building in the back, the walker building has larger, two bedroom units. that is directly accessible by a stair to the courtyard open space; there are a variety of types of two bedrooms. >> thank you. i appreciate that. i see the frame around the windows; if that could be a little bit wider, to give the windows more prominence, something to think about. i also appreciate the fact that the townhouse elements which are the kinds of thi

. i don't want to go into great depth but as with anything like this is not a monolith in the military. members of the military that are serving us all and putting their lives on the line hold a wide variety of political views. >> finally, professor speed, the permanent campaign. has it led to a more responsive government? >> that is what alexander hamilton hoped when he wrote the federalist papers. he made the case that having presidents eligible for free election would make them more responsive to the public and better incentivized to do a good job as president. the -- is certainly has been getting out of washington are to be more in touch with the american people. not all of them. george w. bush's press secretary said if you don't like the current system and want to see more you should move to a swing state and then you will be able to as your president more. it's our system has incentives for some places and some voters matter more than others. the permanent campaign has kept the present closely in touch with voters. fund raising keeps him in touch with certain more than others.

. >> you both had pointed out that we tend to talk as if wall street and the plutocracy were a monolithbut it's not. do you think there is a civil war within the 1%? >> there is absolutely a schism developing in this community. think about it just on one level on the level of banking. all right? you have these too big to fail banks. everybody in the world knows that nobody is going to allow the very biggest commercial banks to go out of business. it will never. 2008 proved it. that if they ever get in trouble the government will come in and rescue them. what does that mean for those banks? it means it allows them to borrow money more cheaply. anybody who lends them money knows they're always going to get paid off. in the worst case scenario they're going to get paid off. this gives them an inherent financial advantage over the small, regional commercial bank. which does not have that implied government guarantee. so those people are furious. they're furious that they have to compete against these gigantic monoliths that have the implicit backing of the u.s. government. then there's the

are we supposed to stand before this monolith and say, thank you for the park and thank you? this is a shame. it's even a shame to see mr. clark stand here before this because this company, they build a lot of good buildings, but this is just an opportunity to build the tallest building and to just use this city as a place to do that is so disrespectful and wrong. and i think that's pretty much all i have to say. it's just really saddening and just -- this building has absolutely no character. that's the really sad thing about this whole process. when the four projects came up for the competition, every one of them was just like, what the hell. i mean, is this a building people would go around the country -- around the world to come and see like other buildings around the world? we could do so much more. here's an example of -- this is agricultural, but this is a tower which is -- it's a whole environment. in san francisco, what we were leaning towards as a city that we always stood out in the world for human rights, for environmentalism, we should be doing something like thi

and they're even less monolithic than that.on probably takes precedence over whether or not you're attracting a particular group, but you hit on something bigger, fred, that is florida has every economic issue in this country. the wealthy in florida are older in some cases, this has the largest population of people over the age of 60. worried about their investments, worried about medicare, social security. you got the housing problem. this state was ground zero for foreclosures and home price drops. you're now starting to see the combination of those low interest rates and low home prices, orlando area has seen housing -- the number of houses that started to be built increasing every month for the last several months. so the message here has got to be highly specific. which one of these candidates is going to do more to improve the economy, florida has seen an improvement, but still has an unemployment rate that is higher than the national average and as you know, fred, the reason we're here, swing state, the biggest swing sta

the culture is monolithic they don't seem interested to change that. they pass policies to make it more difficult for students to have minority viewpoints to speak out. john: and professors at lean left, 51% registered democrats. but only 14% are republican. social science is only 6%. >> 70 2% self identify as liberal. which is a big disparity between them and the general public. john: you were a junior when obama was elected? >> it was light a little of the colt it happened across the nation. john: not just the attitude but there are actual space -- speech restriction red light, yellow light and this university was demoted? >> to policies unc maintains which is sexual-harassment if you attended college and other than unc it bans all sexually explicit jokes. john: david, you have a copy what did you find? >> sexually explicit jokes jokes, books, it is different -- difficult to control how you look at someone. policy in the residence halls to avoid using the returners spoken word in the way that offends. that is a rage asleep fraud. a picture of mitt ro

there are folks on both sides, even down at the small business level -- it's not as if it's monolithic. you have small businesses on both sides and large businesses, ebay has not been a fan of this legislation. mean its small sellers have come out publicly in favor of this legislation. >> you know, fairness is a big position right now. amazon, for instance, will be collecting for over half the u.s. population by 2014, because they are have aggressively expanded their presence in california they have two distributions centers to have same-day delivery, and if you're already correcting from most of the country, you would probably take any little bit of simplification as a way to reduce your costs, and you like the idea it imposes new burdens on your competitors. so a lot of what amazon has done is to shift burdens it never had to bear before it became a $50 billion company, and amazon at this point would love to see those burdens imposed on the tiniest of its competitors. >> is there -- in looking at the bills and their differing thresholds, there is one that is better -- do you have an

online media and really get specific when we are talking about communities because that is not one monolithic market. in san francisco, oakland where we do business, and all the different pockets of the bay area, there are tons of different communities that we all serve, and we have to understand the nuances and difficulties of each particular community because we cannot continue to talk about them as if they are all the same. online community market in oakland is pretty robust. they all struggle with audience, and these are folks that actually served the people that have not been traditionally served by corporate media, and we still have to deal with how we work with these communities, how we let them know that we have their backs and they are the ones we are focusing on because they are so used to being left out of the general marketplace. from a business perspective, how do we target those folks and let them know that they are the community we are focusing on? and also, how do you turn that into a profitable business model, not because we want to be rich, but because we have to pay the bil

we both expected him to be more aggressive but he was courting the women's vote we are not monolithic voters but i do think there is something. lou: 2% if you are. [laughter] >> but verr generalbroad brush women don't lie confrontation in their personal lives and don't want in their living room. mitt romney was banking on that but it was frustrating for me to not hear him say a few cross-examination questions. he did not do it. >> mitt romney looked presidential that obama. he moved into the enter. conservatives will vote for romney, liberals obama. i think he will be victoriousith the women. >> the turnout will be critical but the people who voted for barack obama last ti the vote this time with is here any reflecting higher intensity i have not seen that. the old theory that champion makes the pledge in may it hard again. mitt romney has greater sense of intensity and those from obama. that is bad news. >> obama's talks about romney a mischa but we know it has been the abomination. romney is t answers. >> not following up on libya it brought back. i thoug this is the one chance for

. >> only talk about women or the women's vote, you have to recognize that there is monolithic voting as the diverse as men in the population. there is no one women's vote. when president obama won in 2008, he did it with more than 70% -- that is where we are coming from among women. that is where the romney camp needs to talk. neil: so married women are more inclined to be with romney. it is the single women who are on some of these contraception issues, the other issues, or is it the single woman, you tend to be younger, demographics tend to go for democrats anyway. >> when it comes to married women, at the end of the day, women's and men's interest archive. a lot of them are tied. they care about their sons just as they care about the future of their daughters. obama mentioned his daughter's in the second debate, and it was very ocular with women when they hear this type of frederick. at the end of the day, men and women can work together. neil: in the en, i alwys think that they have a convincing victory that they need all the keys of voting box goingor you or most of them. the pr

it's not as if it's monolithic, small business versus large businesses. you have both on both sides. many of the small sellers have come out publicly in favor of this legislation. >> fairness is a big position of it is where you sit right now. amazon, for instance, will be collecting for over half of the u.s. population by 2014 because they have expanded their presence, distribution centers. in california, they have two distribution centers coming up to give same-day delivery. they're collecting in more and more places. after awhile, if you're already collecting from most of the country, you would probably take any little bit of simplification as a way to reduce your costs and you also like the idea that it imposes new burdens on your competitors. so a lot of what amazon has done by endorsing some sort of federal legislation is to shift burdens it never had to bear before it became a $50 billion company. amazon at this point would like to see the burdens imposed on even the tiniest of its competitors. >> in looking at the bills and with the differing thre

t not as if it's monolithic, you have small businesses on both sides of this, and you have large businesses. ebay has not been a fan of this legislation in the past despite the fact it doesn't sell anything, many of its small sellers have come out publicly in favor of this legislation. >> guest: , you know, fairness is a big position of it is where you sit right now. amazon, for instance, will be collecting for over half the u.s. population by 2014 because they have regressively expanded their presence, distribution centers. in california they've got two distribution centers coming up to get same-day delivery. that means they're collecting in more and more places, and after a while if your already collecting from most of the country, you would probably take any little bit of simplification as a way to reduce your costs, and you also like the idea that it imimposes new burdens on your competitors. a lot of what amazon has done is to shift burdens that it never had to bear before it became a $50 billion company and amazon at this point would love to see those burdens imposed on even the tinie

women are not the monolith they are fighting over. waitress mom. the high school graduates white women, people without a college degree who seem to be reflective of this demographic they are both fighting over, whoever gets this demographic it seems to me will win the female vote. megyn: what was interesting to me in these polls is even though the women in the latest polls seem to be much more with barack obama on social issues, women's issues when it comes to reproductive rights. they were much more with mitt romney on the economy. he turned what was an advantage that president obama had on the economy, it was a 16-points advantage women were giving obama on the economy. it was a 20-point swing to romney's favor and that narrowed the gap. >> that right. concerned women for america did a poll two weeks ago and founding the number one issue for women were jobs and the economy. by 79%. you are seeing a tightening of the race because women are not monolithic. we believe in a host of issues on the life issue and marriage. but the number o

david kirby performed a great service by shattering the myth of the monolithic tea party. if i had to summarize our two prior presentations in a headline, a simplistic headline, it would be david saying that the tea partyers are not monolithic and jonathan saying tea partyers are not loveable. what david finds i think makes his paper a landmark and a break through and well worth downloading and reading, he finally puts the pieces together so you can see it a lot of it in one place. it's like the three blind men says it's a tree trunk and one said it's a snake and so forth. well, it's both. david nails this by finding that the tea party movement is about 50% social conservatives and 50% libertarians. with the energy in this movement waxing and waning from the libertarian side but a lot of it coming originally from the libertarian side. his findings scared with my own. in 2010, i decided to go out and because i had the privilege of being a journalist, i could actually investigate this and looking at a lot of data. i'm going to amplify what david by showing you what i found w
