justice kennedy has said inquired carefully into discrimination. mr. smith: they have to. what is at stake is the family you live with for the rest of your life. the line that is being drawn is not justified. there is no other kind of law where you could discriminate on that basis in a rational way. it does not lend itself to the kind of passive economic regulation. mr. sanders: in the perry case, the argument was front and center. it got virtually no attention. the most attention it got was when justice kagen teased charles cooper about it, made a joke at his expense about that particular argument. there was not a lot of evidence that the court was taking the argument seriously. ms. howe: there has been a lot of focus on supreme court decisions with antidiscrimination laws. but there is a real history that the court has had in addressing access to marriage than he -- that includes people who do not pay child support, permitting individuals who are in prison to marry while they are in prison. mr. sanders: not procreating anytime soon in prison. ms. warbelow: there is this

mr.-- go ahead. >> no no no, ambassador kennedy is absolutely right on that point. >> mr. takaushi do you agree the ongoing crisis in the middle east? dr. . >> i agree china's rise is a long term issue and the fundamental trend of the international politics. so how to manage china is most important for u.s. international policy. to manage sunshine increasingly important, has made japan even more important for united states not less important. >> mr. takaushi, might it look like the united states and japan against china as opposed to u.s. and japan and china? >> i'm not worried u.s. and japan are together on many things this doesn't mean that u.s. and japan are secluding china. they are the biggest trading partner for each other except for canada and mexico for the united states. in that sense u.s., china and japan these three countries are sharing the interest so it's very different from the case when u.s. had to deal with soviet union during the cold war. u.s. china relationship is different than u.s. soviet relations during the cold war. >> eight bases housing 50,000 act

mr. smith: yes they did, they categorized oil fired plants in four categories. justice kennedy: you say that was done based on cost? how much did that save. justice scalia: did we know how much of the 9.6 alien dollar cost would be reduced? mr. smith: i don't have that calculus, but something like 90% of that which is most of the $9.6 billion, has already been spent. and industry has not experienced the kinds of the peoples that are being described. the rule takes effect in the middle of april so the idea that the result was somehow ludicrous or outlandishly expensive, is belied by the fact that the industry is bringing itself into full compliance. justice scalia: instead of going to jail? it might be ludicrous but i had to be done. mr. smith: the other thing i would say is the $4.6 million benefit is the proper comparator is wrong on so many levels. that was one single health benefit related -- justice kennedy: is the $9 billion a year recurring annually or are you saying most of this is capital investment one time? mr. smith: most of it is amateurish station of the capital ex

mr. gerhardstein: well, kennedy said he is not doing this on a federalism basis. the majority ruling should look at it as a equal protection case. the first case filed after windsor, we went out and hired the same experts and the same problems. ohio did have a long tradition and still does, of being on the extreme side of the state of celebration rule. so if you have always accepted underage marriages and common-law marriages, now, because of these 20 people in these 20 states, you say, we are going to change the rules. that raises the bar. judge sutton: the supreme court decision? that is a first cousin decision. it is a case where the state does not have to recognize every marriage in every other state. mr. gerhardstein: if you go to our brief and you look at all of the sources that we cite and the ones that go way back, we cannot find another case where ohio has refused to recognize marriages from other states, that otherwise could not be practiced in ohio. judge sutton: there are like three cases. mr. gerhardstein: there is not a lot of case law. so, we have a

vein here, the question is whether gay people share that same liberty to be -- justice kennedy: the problem -- mr. bursch: able to form family relationships. justice kennedy: one of the problems is when you think about these cases you think about words or cases, and the word that keeps coming back to me in this case is millennia, plus time. first of all, there has not been really time, so the respondents say, for the federal system to engage in this debate, the separate states. but on a larger scale, it's been it was about the same time between brown and loving as between lawrence and this case. it's about 10 years. and so there's time for the scholars and the commentators and the bar and the public to engage in it. but still, 10 years is i don't even know how to count the decimals when we talk about millennia. this definition has been with us for millennia. and it it's very difficult for the court to say, oh, well, we know better. ms. bonauto: well, i don't think this is a question of the court knowing better. when we think about the debate the place of gay people in our civic society is somethi

mrs. obama, things in a very organized way. they are very well structured in their mind. jackie kennedy was famous for i don't have a schedule i like to do things spontaneously. and different ones bring different things. i think mrs. johnson with her love of words, she had a degree in journalism her love of writing, her love of cadence, her love of wisdom but also like you said the media experience brought that, you know and that's not necessary political. it's a policy budget but it ends up having a political result. >> edna medford, this is not a new phenomenon. we have an image from the polk administration. we will go back in time and escrow anthony said this was a time when women were supposed to stay in their sphere. but mrs. pope didn't stay in her spare so well. could you tell us about it? >> no, she did not. this was when women were really appendages to their husbands. they were not supposed to have political ideas of their own. they certainly were not supposed to voice those ideas if they did have them. mrs. polk had those ideas into force them at least to her husband. and she

mr. lindstrom: may it please the court -- as justice kennedy explained a few months ago, it is a fundamental premise of our democratic system that the people can be trusted to decide even divisive issues on decent and rational grounds. that's what this case is about. it's about to who gets to decide what the definition of marriage is, not what that definition must be, and it's about who gets to decide on two different levels, the judicial hierarchy has felt whether a district court can disregard a directly on point holding by the united states supreme court, namely baker versus nelson and the bigger picture, it's whether federal rights, if there is a creation of a new federal constitutional right, if that should be done under the amendment process or by the courts under a doctrine. there is common ground in this state that the u.s. constitution does not directly address same-sex marriage, which means to turn to the question substantive due process. the right being asserted is objectively, deeply rooted in this nation's history and tradition and puts it in the concept of the words liberty suc

senator kennedy's office sent it on leader to the white house so that it could get to mrs. bush. by that time they had had the anthrax attack, and everything that was mailed to the white house went through irradiation. it was basically microwaved. at first i do not know much about irradiation, but my understanding is that there are various levels. it was turned up to 11 at the beginning, and then it was toned down at the end. but the glass of this has turned brown because of the irradiation. so in one piece you get such a rich story. this is president bush with senator kennedy in the oval office. they are talking about their plans for education. brooke: on june 20 8, 2004, the coalition for authority transferred authority to iraq, this happened at a united nations summit in istanbul turkey. there he is shaking hands with tony blair while this transfer of authority is taking place. dr. condoleezza rice passes him this note that says mr. president, iraq is sovereign. at 10:26 iraq time. he writes back let freedom ring. it is a nice little note passing at the summit. even while some

kennedy's show, and he should stay home. and that's what i thought gorbachev should have done. c-span: what do you think of mr. gorbachev? >> guest: well, i think he's actually rather a tragic figure. i think he probably shouldn't worry too much. his place in history is secure. he will always be remembered by history, i think, chiefly for bringing about the end of the cold war and beginning the important task of arms reduction with the united states. i think his record inside the soviet union, though, is much more complex, and he does not come across as the same uncomplicated gorbachev that the west had come to love. in that respect, i think he has no current political future. and while i, you know, have respect for the man, you know, we all in life have to keep our eye on the big ball. the big ball was u.s.-russian relations, not trying to make somebody feel better he's no longer in power. by the way, my reaction to all that, you know, did not go down universally well among the others who'd been invited. but anyway... c-span: why? >> guest: well, because i wrote to several people who'd been invited also to be part of th

mr. kantor lost his seat in congress. this is just our an hour. >> good evening and welcome to the john tv kennedy, jr. forum. i'm director of the institute of politics. tonight our guest is former congressman eric cantor. he currently serves as vice chair of the investment bank but until 2014 he spent two decades in public service. first, serving in the virginia house of delegates, and beginning in 2001 representing virginia's seventh district in the u.s. house of representatives. in 2008, congressman cantor was elected republican whip, and in 2011, he was elected house majority leader of the 112th 112th congress. known as a smart and pragmatic legislator congressman cantor called for a vision of conservatism, and i quote founded on decency, inspiration, and a desire to let every american have a fair shot at earning their success and achieving their dreams. end quote. last january, then congressman cantor addressing congress and the obama administration urged both to think about the eight million children who will be born before the next election and for their sake forego -- focus on where they agree and wha

kennedy's separate opinion in veef and cook versus grayliff points out there, might be other constitutional problems with that arising either from the first amendment or the 14th amendment. but i believe that mr. clement would agree on rebuttal that if the legislature, whatever the legislature means, if the legislature decided look, we are going to delegate this responsibility to the governor that would be a constitutional delegation because it would have been a decision made by the lawmaking body of the state. if i could just make one point and then address justice breyer's question about smiley, hildebrand, and hawk, it would be deeply, deeply inconsistent with the enterprise in philadelphia to her better and effectuate the notion that our framers intended to set aside both a cornerstone principle of federalism in their aim to bind the people as closely as possible to the national house of representatives. yes, it is true that all of the sturm and drang over this clause related to the second part giving congress authority -- and that is because no one questioned the fundamental principles that the sovereign states could choose to allocate their legislative power as they wanted. if there had

mr. kennedy: mr. speaker, it is an honor for me to be here today and to watch and recognize my father-in-law the reverend dr. jim burchfield, who opened the house this afternoon. he is a man that i've known myself and her family over the past decade who are with us in the gallery this afternoon, a man of utmost integrity who has devoted his life to, as he said, serving those among us that are most in need. through his ministry at first presbyterian church and prior to that in new port beach california, the greater los angeles area, he and his family have consistently dedicated themselves to spreading the word of god and making sure that we, as a community, as a country remain focused on those who need our help most. he has spread that word throughout the entire world from subis a hairian africa, to egypt and recent trips to israel and literally the world over as he continues to expand his ministry and touch those who are in need of additional service. so mr. speaker i'm grateful to be with my father-i
