mr. governor, this is the real situation.ying to start making some serious accommodations. >> yes. kwame kilpatrick. >> greedy. he was greedy. i didn't support him in the beginning. and i was one of his biggest critics. but when he got in trouble, who he call? he called me. i should have listened to my wife. she said don't be messing with him. >> are there good guys out there? >> there's a lot of guys, yes. but they don't want to run. there's a lot of people. >> why don't they want to run? >> because you've got to take the badge that come along with it. you got to take the garbage. >> why should a bright young guy fresh out of law school start thinking about running for anything in the city of detroit? >> sooner or later, it's going to be all right. it's going to be all right. it's a tough town. >> is detroit going to turn things around? i could lie and tell you yes. but you know what? this city is screwed. only place i've ever been that looks anything like detroit does now, chernobyl. i'm not being funny. that's the truth. >

mr. vice president, governor, congressman thomas, senator wily and congressman miller, mr. webb, mr. bell, scientists, distinguished guests and ladies and gentlemen, i appreciate your president having immediate he m made me an honorary visiting professor and i assure you my first lecture will be very brief. i am delighted to be here and particularly delighted to be here on this occasion. we meet at a college noted for knowledge in a city noted for progress in a state noted for strength. and we stand in need of all three. we meet in an hour of change and challenge and a decade of hope and fear. in an age of both knowledge and ignorance. to greatest our knowledge increases, the greater our ignorance unfolds. despite the striking fact that most of the scientists that the world has ever known are alive and working today, despite the fact that this nation's own scientific manpower is doubling every 12 years in a rate of growth more than three times that of our population as a whole, despite that, the vast searches of the unknown and the unanswered and the unfinished still far outstrip our

mr. chairman. governor, you demonstrate your wisdom early going to the brown university in providence, rhode island. i am sure when you are confirmed as federal chairman it will be consistent with your record of wise choices. many times our fiscal policy and monetary policy has been working in cross purposes. the federal reserve has been quantitative easing, trying to get an expansive policy in place and we have been contracting, shutting the government down, we anticipate, i hope we can avoid this, but we are going to end unemployment insurance abruptly december 31st. how would your job, and obviously the size and scope of your portfolio and everything else, maybe the question has been asked today, be affected if our fiscal policy was complementary to your monetary policy? >> well, senator, i agree that fiscal policy has been working at cross purposes to monetary policy. i recognize the importance of the objective of putting the u.s. deficit and debt on a sustainable path. congress has worried about that a

mr. chao are these governors, aren't they all democrat governors? and they opted out of the exchange? are you aware of that? i have a question for all of you. do you -- each of you, i want to ask you this question. it's obvious obama care was not ready for prime time. also, from a security standpoint. were you aware of that, mr. powder, before october first? >> go did issue a report in june that there was a lot to do with a compressed schedule, krkt. were you aware of it. >>ives aware that there was security testing. >> you were aware that there were problems. >> okay. i said from an operational. >> i'm just trying to answer your question. >> well, operational and security. mr. batheman? >> i was aware of various modules that were to be part of the system weren't working. >> anything on security? operational and security. >> not as i recall, sir, no. i'm aware that any system needs constantly addressed. >> did you review a document that wasn't released yet, but it reviewed the security testing and capenty? >> you commented that grow had to make decisions and the construct, correct? >>

mr. romney's lieutenant governor lost that election by 21 points. by the time mr. romney was on his way out of massachusetts and on his way to go badly lose the republican primary for the presidential election that time around, he was being replaced in the statehouse in massachusetts by essentially his polar political opposite, by a proudly progressive democrat who pledged to repeal a lot of things that mitt romney had done. remember, massachusetts was the first state in the nation to recognize same-sex marriage. mitt romney hated that. and during his time as governor, he banned gay couples from anywhere else in the country from coming into massachusetts in order to get married. deval patrick reversed that policy of mitt romney's right away. mitt romney had opposed stem cell research. he tried to ban that in massachusetts. deval patrick, when he took over, he lifted those restrictions right away and unbanned it. mitt romney had pulled massachusetts out of a regional effort in the northeast to control greenhouse gases. when deval patrick took office, he reversed tha

mr. scrushy's testimony against governor siegelman, to testify that he paid a bribe of $500,000 in exxhangeointment on the board. juriy deny -- scrushy denies there any quid pro quo. and don siegelman denies there was any quid profile. neil: what do you think that arguments are? >> i think they will listen, the core charge and core claim in the appeal, two aspects, first is that every defendant is entitled to a disinterest in the prosecuter, and the person was married to individual who was managing the campaign of his political opponent, that he then recused herself but participated in the prosecution, when evidence of brought forward of that participation we claim there should have been a hearing to explore, there was no such hearing, and we believe that the 11 circuit should order such a hearing to be held to determine whether or not there was in fact a disinterested prosecutor. second part of appeal has to do with mistakes we believe that sentencing judge made with respect to the way he calculated the sentence, that added years on that should not have been added. neil: quickly, half mill

mr. hancock, and, of course, former governor gray davis.lective leadership made this possible. there are several heads of the department of transportation who have been sobered with this project. from project selection from the original decision to construct the new bridge thought the management and political challenges in sacramento.

governors. much more so than opponents. >> mr. gilbergilbert? >> governors like to contract their ability to get things done with gridlock. but there vast majority of them, chris christie excepted, like to control the governor's mansion and i am wondering how that experience is transferrable to washington where we have to divide the governor and when the differences between the parties with acutely entranced. >> it is part of the reason why i am not talking about 2016 but focus on 2014. not because i am up for reelection, but we should not be overlooking it because what we learned and many other battleground states learned in the 2010 election, was if you want to get positive reform down, you need a team to help you do that. everything switched from democrat control to republican control in 2010. it is similar to neighboring states as well. for me, other governors and state leaders, that empowered us to go out and make bold reforms that would have been much more difficult if the changes were not fully intact. so that is why we need to focus on th
