mr. aaron's application for a commution was rejected. the guy that recommended that clarence aaron's sentence not be commuted, has not been appointed by president obama but has been there the whole time. the inspector general for the justice department looked into what happened in that case and issued a scathing report about how mr. rogers handled it. after that report and all of the media attention, particularly from the pro public series, clarence aaron did become one of the lucky few to get an obama presidential era pardon. he got a pardon after 21 years, so for whatever reason, the whole time president obama has been president has really seemed he didn't want to recommend that people get out of president prison. that this particular part of the criminal justice system be used. and maybe that is the reason so few people have been pardoned. the office of the pardon attorney since george w. bush has been president has been helmed by somebody who goes to great lengths to make sure nobody gets released that president obama recommends be re

everything mr. aaron said as much as things have changed, a lot have stayed the same. just as racism is not as overt as it used to be, but simply camouflaged. and i think the mail that's gone to the braves' offices this week simply reflect that to signal what's still going on. >> terrence, what does it say about where we stand as a country? i mean, how can we have tough conversations about race if this is going to be the response? >> well, i'll tell you something, ed i worked at the "atlanta journal-constitution" for 25 years i was the first african-american general sports columnist in the history of the south. back in 1984. pie discovered very quickly, when people talked about the new south, that means i could drink out of the same water fountain with you and bob. okay. the stuff i got was beyond viciousness. this doesn't surprise me. i've known hank for over 30 years. he talks to me more than he talks to any other reporter. and we talked today. a couple times, as a matter of fact. hank is upset with the

i don't think we should cast dispersions at mr. aarons saying. >> how important is this event when you have four living presidents coming together to speak? >> oh, it's remarkably important. when you have lbj in my opinion, one of the two greatest president, at least for african-american people in this nation, first there was lincoln, and then there was lbj. lbj, the civil rights bill, the voting rites act, and then in the aftermath of dr. king's death, the fair housing act. this is the holy trinity of social, political and policy transformation in america. lbj didn't get the kind of remarkable so fiphistication th john f. kennedy, but he did the hard work. he forced the sdmarts and congress to pass this legislation. he was a remarkable legislative genius in that sense, and he was a guy who made a great impact on our country, and it's great that the four living presidents came together to celebrate his legacy. >> well, not only is president obama being obstructed, it goes furtherer than that. on tuesday, attorney general eric holder and

i want to welcome back former supervisor aaron and mr. president, and members of the board of supervisors i think i testified on another sequa issue relative to the america's cup. i have been intimidating involved with sequa and have had the pleasure of adjusting over a one hundred of those matters it's abundantly clear to me that this project is not exempt if sequa. i don't think that in the 8 years i was on the board but the exemption as council for the appellants is predicated on no potential environmental impacts being present. the moving papers clearly show there's a large number of them i don't want to look at the clear impacts but the air quality and publication and traffic gangs that clearly need meet the low they recalled is this is not from sequa. i was on the board of supervisors when the planning department issued a cat ignorantly comments on the bikes plan that was appealed i said in this matter it was not exempt if we were sued we'd lose. i salute all of you for sitting through another sequa hearing while some of you don't l
