mr. forbes?>> to get the nomination, it's very different from getting an early lead in the polls. to get it you have to show you will unite the party and win primaries that shows you can bring people together. we're still a long way from that. we have to remember, it's still several months before we have the first contest in iowa. to win a nomination of a political party, you have to show you can bring the different parts of party together. parties in america are unlike what you see in europe and elsewhere, you have groups and people together who have very different interests from one another. one quick example. in a normal economy, you go to iowa, iowa republicans have much more interest as a whole, as a whole in social issues than economic issues. in new hampshire, you go there, you find just the opposite. much more interested in economic issues, hardly any interest in social issues. as a whole. as a generality. so you see dispar rat groups you have to get the nomination and not just a rise in

mr. forbes: the other thing i would say is this.oftentimes we like to reinvent the wheel but we have had incredibly successful programs around the country that we have put one impediment after another to doing in a complementary role with what you are doing. at some point in time when he did take a look at that and analyze that. let me ask you this question, following on the statement. testimony that if we looked across the country today gang membership would be the fourth largest in the world -- army of the world. would have had testimony that in some of the most violent gangs, 75% are coming in illegally. they are bypassing any prevention programs. to attract us to find out that the secretary of homeland us toty -- it shocked find out that the secretary of homeland security was not asking people if they are members of gangs before we release them. anything about how important the gangs are in the distribution process? >> i think they have become almost crucial to the mexican cartels. speaking of chicago and the midwest, there are over 150,000 documented street gang members. largely the

mr. forbes, has a distinguished witness and i will allow him to introduce the commonwealth attorney at this point and then i will introduce the next three. >> thank you for holding this hearing and inviting our distinguished guests to share this experience. as you mentioned one of our witnesses is nancy parr who served as the commonwealth attorney for the city of chesapeake since being first elected in november 2005. she isn't limited new programs in addition to carrying out the traditional role of a prosecutor esther office and chesapeake. her programs implement -- included seven girls empowerment conferences. seven traveling the road to success multiweek programs and five lying on the right team basketball tournaments. -- playing on the right team basketball tournaments. for six years, she served as a special attorney in the eastern district of virginia. in addition to public service she is a member of the many boards and educations and offers her charitable time including to the region you association of commonwealth attorneys where she was president from 2014 to 2015. commonwealth secur

mr. forbes. guest: good morning, matt.aller: what you were saying about the brickbats, the newest brickbats is the term "anchor baby." hillary clinton was first lady years.lary --eight the term anchor baby has been used for decades and now it is an offensive term to hillary clinton. position to in the actually say something about it, she didn't. everybody knows what anchor babies are. there are no two ways about it. jeb bush and donald trump are being condemned for saying what the truth is. you know what? it is time for the republicans to start coming to the gunfight with a gun instead of a knife. they started to back in the days of newt gingrich, but now it seems like they are backpedaling and apologizing for telling the truth. what you said is true. i would like to see somebody stand up. i'm not saying i'm a trump fan, but i tell you what, i love his attitude. host: i'm sorry, matt. i thought you were

mr. forbes and let me just say i think what we all understand is subsidiesing things like that with obamacare it nation things worse. it makes them more expensive. this is about national identifying effectively the education system and considering the public school system is doing sole right now, let's affect the college system as well. why not make it a trillion dollars, why not make it 2 trillion? this is her being santa claus . charles: although the irony there, steve, is that bernie sanders, his plan probably would be a trillion if we added it up. this is considered the moderate democratic proposal here. >> yeah. socialism light. but simply part of the obama administration's plan, and she will be a third term of obama. to put more clause in more parts of american life. higher education already is in the thrall of the federal bureaucracy. if they send a letter to a college saying we suggest, that's a command. you don't even have to go through the regulatory process anymore. this is make higher education more subsidy of the federal government and you know what that means in terms of curricu

mr. forbes brought up a point. i think you meant to ask about transcripts as opposed to record. you can very well be a member of a gang and never be charged or prosecuted with that. i think that was his broader point. but with that i will go to the judge from texas. >> thank you and thank you mr. secretary for being here. i was hearing my friend from tennessee talking about all these threats that are in his mind conservatives. i don't know where his numbers are coming from. they're nothing like what i've been seeing. as i understand, the underwear bomber was certainly not an evangelical christian, not a conservative. do you know for sure, was he a member of al qaeda in the arabian peninsula? i know that was floated at one time. >> i

mr. forbes turned out to be a real crook and he stole many of the goods that were supposed to go to the veterans hospital supplies. he sold them cheaply and made money from kickbacks and a real scandal. susan swain: lots and lots of money. david pietrusza: actually forbes was a wilson appointee running pearl harbor in hawaii and they ran across him in one of the trips and he flattered, flattered her shamelessly. and so, she in fact was the person who said, "warren, you should appoint this forbes fellow." and her other great friend, dr. sawyer took an immediate dislike to forbes, always hated him. david pietrusza: and it was, i believe, sawyer who brought the rumors to warren harding of the thefts which were -- which are completely egregious in the veteran's hospital. i think when you talk about your teapot dome, you talk about whatever daugherty or jeff smith did in the justice department. i think the great shame of the administration is what they did to the veterans. kathrine sibley: yes, but i think when florence found out -- david pietrusza: and even in terms of money. kathrine sibley: right.

mr. trump will be meeting with larry can you do low and steven moore and steve forbes and others in the growth wing of the party to talk about a growth oriented ojob pack an. trump has his own thoughts about tax reform that would be more favorable to entrepreneurs and to growth and to business. so i consider that a very good sign. but, frankly, it's something i have been arguing for for some time. perhaps i played some small role going rocky and saying if nodes to be done. >> if he does not win the nomination, sit your gut that he will run as around independent? >> well, there is a lot of legal barriers to that. you can't get on the ballot -- >> you can, will he in. >> the idea he will one as an independent is based on the fact that a "new york times" piece two squeeks ago said three candidates have been meeting and talking about boycotting the debates if trump is involved. in 15 states the republican establishment can knock this guy off the ballot with a stroke of a pen as a republican. so why should he give up his leverage if he's not going to be treated fairly by the republican party. >> ye
