but mr. obama it seems to me has actually worsened, not improved, race relations at times it seems as though that is his goal. here is the latest on the issue from a "new york times"/cbs poll. 61% of americans now say race relations in this country are generally bad. that number up sharply from 44% after the fatal police shooting of michael brown and the unrest that followed in ferguson, missouri last august. and certainly more dramatically 61% who believe race relations today are bad it's a complete reversal of the two-thirds of americans who said race relations were generally good just three months after mr. obama took office in 2009. joining us now, the fox news digital politics editor and the five cohosts columnist for the hill, juan williams. gentlemen, good to have you with us. the president on race again using it as exploitation of racial issues or is he dealing with what he called for five days ago the truth? >> i think he's speaking the truth. i think that what he's saying is -- and by the

[applause] mrs. obama: thank you all. thank you so much. let's let our graduates rest themselves. you've worked hard for those seats. well let me start by thanking president johnson for that very gracious introduction and for awarding me with this honorary degree from an extraordinary institution. i am proud to have this degree. i am proud. thank you. thank you so much. i want to recognize major general williams congresswoman sewell, zachary colana, to all the trustees, the faculty, the staff here at tuskegee university. thank you, thank you so much for this warm welcome, this tremendous hospitality. i'm so glad to be here. but -- [applause] mrs. obama: before i begin i just want to say my heart goes out to everyone who knew and loved eric marx jr. i understand he was such a talented young man a promising aerospace engineer who was well on his way to following in the steps of the task gee air men and eric was taken from as you far too soon and our thoughts and prayers will continue to be with his family, h

he's a little bit older then michelle robinson, mrs. obama now and he talked about the lessons he learned and there was fundamental message of hitting on with it but at the same time parents in his case a grandmother who had who endured racial hostility were saying yesterday exists and it's important to note that exist but do not let it stop you. you can still be whatever you want and i think about that in the context of michelle obama's paternal grandfather fraser robinson junior. he came from south carolina he came to better himself. he didn't see much of a future for young man like him in south carolina. and he was very mindful that he did not have the opportunity that so many other white people people -- we people did in michelle said if my grandfather would abort them born like he would have been a bank president. as it happened he worked in the post office. the federal government was a way in for many african-americans in

mr. obama's goal he said was to degrade and to destroy the islamic state.is rhetoric notwithstanding, congressional republicans were reluctant to accede to his request to approve the use of military force against the islamic state because they declared he has no strategy. whatever his true intent president obama never set out to destroy them nor to even degrade the islamic state forces in any meaningful manner. whatever president obama's legacy it will be neither sincerity or conviction. >>> now our quotation of the evening. a no uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a yes merely uttered to please or worse, to avoid trouble. those words from gandhi. we'll be right back. >>> top democrats try to block president obama's big trade deal while senate republicans are bragging about their support for the president. the big loser in all this? our middle class. senator jeff sessions joins us next. it's part adrenaline and part adventure. it's part geek and part chic. it's part relaxation and part exhilaration. it's part sports car and part suv. and the

today mr. obamaith hardly a single trumpet sounding. and he is leaving absolutely no corner of the world unaffected. officially removing cuba as a state sponsor of terrorism. only 45 days after he announced his plan to reverse a half century of foreign policy with cuba and without symmetrical alteration of policy. and despite three day long inclusion on that list in qatar the five former guantanamo bay taliban detainees traded for bowe bergdahl a year ago are now free or at least they will be this monday to travel, anywhere. and return to terrorism against the united states. our allies or anyone else for that matter. in iraq, the obama administration backing away from months of promising to degrade and destroy the islamic state announcing this week that the united states will perhaps be helpful to our allies including iraq but no longer be responsible for securing the country. >> our strategy is to support the iraqi security forces in doing what we will not do for them. the united states is prepared

mr. obama's goal he said was to degrade and destroy the islamic state.notwithstanding congressional republicans were reluctance to exceed to his request to approve military force against the islamic state because they declared he has no strategy. whatever his true intent. president obama never set out to destroy them. whatever president obama's legacy, it will be neither sincerity or conviction. our quotation of the evening, a no uttered from the deepest convict is better than a yes merely uttered to avoided trouble. we're coming right back. >> coming up, the islamic state takes ramadi and more iraqi territory. and president obama's strategy is attacked from all sides. michael goodwin and judy miller the a-team next. >> outlaws in new york city, could go free, if the police commissioner has his way attorneys lis wiehl and aaron ehrlich on the bratton amnesty. excellent looking below the surface, researching a hunch... and making a decision you are type e*. time for a change of menu. research and invest from any website. with e*trade's browser trading. e*

they want mr. obama to allow them to import high technology and u.s. military's equipment.il now it's been limited in the region. but the gcc also wants america to establish a ballistic defense system that would protect them from potential missile attacks. as indicated by on going gcc military operations in 'em men they're warning without america's support they'll take aggressive destabilizing action alone. president obama at camp david president obama: it will detour and confront any threat to the going gritty that is inconsistent with the charter. >> should they give the gcc what it wants? some of what it wants. if he's going to pursue its nuclear strategy and wants to have influence he has to yield to the gcc in terms of military technology. he doesn't want to do the ballistic shield. it hedges. he says we'll consider what we'll do but it's about paranoia. you have to be confident and build confidence there if you want to restrain them from doing the crazy things that they tend to do. >> they're terrified of iran. what they want is a nato type agreement where the united

." >> axelrod: mrs. obama suggested her experience is not unique. a new program at the university of colorado is actually spreading that kind of language. but as mark strassman reports, the goal is to make it disappear. >> reporter: at the university of colorado, everyone on campus is being tested. >> we want students to be uncomfortable when they read that? >> reporter: judewon kebede, a senior here, helped create these signs posted on campus. they attack race, religion, and sexual identity. one reads, "your mom must be the janitor because she's mexican." another assumes an arab student must be a suicide bomber. is there one message that hits you the hardest? >> i think probably the "go back to africa" message probably hit me the hardest just because that relates directly to my identity. >> reporter: are you uncomfortable when you read that? >> i'm been uncomfortable being told that. >> reporter: the 500 signs are intentionally offensive and were approved and paid for by the university. >> close to 70 bias-motivated incidents on the campus this yea

so here we have the three most powerful democrats in the nation, mr. obamai, and reid, all saying various things that make absolutely no sense at all. now, the unintended consequences of the disastrous foreign policy we have. president obama likes to point to a 60 nation coalition that apparentlyy has signed up to confront isis. outside of a few. countries that are undertaking a few bombing missions, there is little sign the coalitionis is effective. maybe italy spain and germany have noticed the millions of people trying to illegally cross into europe from africa and the middle east. many of them fleeing terrorism, much of it generated by isis. as thousands drowned in the mediterranean sea, the leaders of the european union fiddle, imitating near row, too corrupt or incompetent to do anything about the terror threat. the whole world is changing, the jihad is advancing u yet the 60 nation coalition is as impotent as any group ever be. there isn't enough viagra in the world. as american power recedes abroad tyrants like putin in russian take advantage. this i

if mr. obama would acknowledge the entire power structure is african-american mayor, city council, city council president, a commissioner, the list goes on there are causes for the failure to serve citizens but racism is nowhere near the top of the saddest. for our president to take no responsibility for the broad failure of african american leadership is gut-wrenching disappointing for the president of united states to resort once again to the politics of racial exploitation is damnable because it victimizes the people of baltimore who suffered far too much and far too long in back corrosive corruption. racial exploitation and the politics of the left are nothing more than and transparent rationalization the failure. either the leaders of the city of baltimore nor our president can hide from their responsibility for the decades-long devastation that used to be a great city and that mr. president is the truth that you say you wanted. the quotations of the evening on socialism. to british leaders.

mrs. obama her experiences as first lady recalling some tough moments, including being called uppity. her husband's crony of color, and even obama's baby mama. >> i realized that if i wanted to keep my sanity and not let others define me there was only one thing i could do. and that was to have faith in god's plan for me. i had to ignore all of the noise, and be true to myself. and the rest would work itself out. >> shelly wade is one of the country's top radio air personalities. she's based in san diego. shelly, thanks for joining me. >> hi, carol. thanks for having me. >> thanks for being here. so i'll ask you an obvious question first off. why did the first lady decide to share this at this particular time? >> well first of all, i'd like to say, like the students at tuskegee i also attended an hbcu for those of you who don't know what that means, historically black college and university. i went to texas university go tigers but i'm completely sure that those graduates were honored to have ou

are we giving mr. obama attitude little credit?y lacks a strategy but at some point there will have to a knowledge they have refused to except the real strategy not intended to a finance foreign policy in any corner of the world. the administration is better aligned with the iranians than israel or saudi arabia. the more closely aligned with the chinese and the south china sea but to ignore the expansion strategy as it builds its presence in central and south america as china makes investments there. and even more aligned with russia as vladimir putin has his influence through the baltic states and scandinavia. with get the president's language. it is meaningless but watch his action and the consequences of his policy choice. only then can we truly defying here is a true policy and intent and ambition. a quotation on concealing policies of state. of back who was the greatest prime minister said this ended deserves considerable thought. >> franken explicit is the right line to take when you wish to conceal your own mind and confuse

mr. obama's climate change agenda is also expected. e supreme court is set to rule whether the administration exceeded the law with limits on emissions for power plants. and the supreme court has ruled against the obama administration so often that the obama lawyers must bedown cast. the high court ruled the president exceeded his authority with his recess appointments to the national labor relations board. it goes on and on. since the president took office, there have been 13 unanimous supreme court rulings against the obama administration. the president's legal legacy has already been decided. the real question now is just how bad it will be. for the president i mean not the country. our quotation of the evening by the chief justice of the supreme court who may well have a significant voice in whether the power of the executive branch will be checked as envisioned by the constitution. quote, by insuring no one in government has too much power, the constitution helps protect ordinary americans every day against abuse of power by those

that's what mr. obama believes. i think it's fair to say that theory surprised awe a lot of military people. >> the president of the united states says today it's climate change we have to worry about. i'm worried about climate change. do we give a [ bleep ] about what's happening in the streets of ramadi? >> as for isis taking ramadi mr. obama contends usa continues to downgrade that savage group. he does acknowledge setbacks. with isis controlling half the country of syria, i'd say setbacks might be stereo genttoo gentle. it's fine to want a cleaner planet, i do. every sane person supports that. to tell a group of military graduates climate change is defense priority borders delusion. people are being burned to death and beheaded by savages and the president is presenting climate change as a military priority. that's like george washington telling troops to concentrate on making wax candles and apple cider. good grief. yes he gave the order to get bin laden and for using drones to kill terrorists. i give him credi

but acting on his own, mr. obama poissioned the politics of immigration reform for the rest of his tenure. the republicans who favor reform have no chance to bring along angry back-benchers who have zero trust in the president to follow any immigration reform that the congress has. >> democrats could look at the as the term growing crocodile tears except for the fact that a wall street editorial page much more pro immigration than if conservatives for pro immigration. i wouldty there are a lot of people that see this as a huge setback setback. >> well the main stream is pro immigration. they want workers to do the job. i understand they would see this as a setback, obviously, for the president. as i said the idea that congress might have done something but for the president's executive order i think is a little reach. i don't think congress is doing anything let alone passing immigration results. >> all right. did you see what happened with the irs yesterday? >> yeah the hackers reportedly use the irs' own system to

speaking to the graduating class at tuskegee university in alabama in a deeply personal speech mrs. obama said tuskegee's defining story is one of rising hopes for african-americans. she told students she struggled as then senator obama began to run for president and she dealt with people's misperceptions and stereotypes. she said it, quote, knocked her back a bit but said it did not define her. she urged students to stay true to themselves as they chart their own course. >>> today's class of 2015 walk the line. students graduated at 10:00 this morning, so going on now. school of international service, family and friends expected to swarm the campus. congratulations to all of you for all that hard work. a big weekend for students and parents at howard university the class of 2015 graduated yesterday. lots of smiling and crowd families attended the ceremony. howard also granted a number of honorary degrees during the ceremony including a doctor of humanity. how cool is this morgan freeman. >> i know. i was talking about that yesterday. shocking offensive comments at a commencement in an at

mr. obama repeated arguments he cites often to promote his effort including a litany of grim fact and figures. missing skeptics of the femme no, ma'am nonare those who refuse to act on it . and he faces strong opposition on climate change and many republicans and coal industry officials would devastate the economy facing resistance the president is looking to build support including his focus on national defense. in a report issued on wednesday, the white house said climate changes would act as an excel rant aropd the world that could escalate white house said tensions and lead to overpopulation and rising temperatures would change the missions increasing the command for resources in the arctic and coastal regions that would affected by higher sea levels and humanitarian crisises. john republican, what do you think? caller: yes, humanitarian i think climate change is not an issue. i think the biggest national security risk we currently have -- hello? >> yes. caller: i think the biggest national

and when i look at what krista what you said about mrs. obama, i think she -- run reason that a lot of people are willing including -- look the clintons -- willing to give it up their privacy and the intrusions is that opportunity to really make a permanent change in perhaps the way the american people think or perceive something. and we are really talking about some profound things here. lady bird john son profoundly helped change the way americans think about their visual environment as well as the safety of it, and has essentially been forgotten but was part of -- she gave velocity to that movement is a think michelle obama does now about what we eat. in 50 years people might forget she was involved but she has been part of it, and the chance to do that is while athey say ill'll give up some privacy. >> its often a learning curve and i'm thinking about modern first ladies we have all seen. nancy reagan, for example fought it would be like sacramento when she got to washington and it was not quite the same when she got here. >> no. she didn't
