commissioner sugaya: in terms of the new idea that mr. paul put forth with this other storage room, i guess it is, there are some concerns that it should be thought about if that is going to be brought back before the commission and that is whether or not it isn't possible to have a more enclosed and permanent connection between the club area in that room and i don't know what the configuration is and whether that is a fence. and just thinking about the problems created even though you have moved the room into something that is totally enclosed with a small window and a doorway. and to tackle the sound issue that might be generated out of that room. whatever you can work out with the architects and sound people. with respect to commissioner antonini's desire to have it all in one, i don't think we can do that because it's not before us at this point. >> first of all, i got personally involved at the request of the supervisor who attended a meeting and had discussions about this. and what seemed like a workable solution is if we could close the

mr. daniel paul moore -- daniel palmer. [applause] >> thank you, mr. speaker. i always wanted to say that. what do you think the effect will be if tuition fees were to rise? that is the question i have been asking young people in chester and they came back to me and said that people from low and middle income families will be put off from going to university, causing them to become institutions for the rich only. the rise in tuition fees will also cause the gap between the rich and board to agree -- increase and it would be unfair for people who cannot afford to go to university should be deprived of the opportunities. there has been a lot of strong support a justification for a rise in tuition fees. some of them being university is not always the right path to get a high-paying job, that the rich -- apprenticeships, internships and college education. the argument that a rise would deter their repeople will go to universities -- at the taxpayers' expense -- reducing the number of people increases the value of the word of the degree. fairness, it had been mentio

mr. president, former fed chairman paul volcker, who has advised the obama administration, supports breaking up big banks so that they no longer pose systemic risk to the entire economy. according to a recent article in "the new york times," volcker said -- and i quote -- "people say i'm old-fashioned and banks can no longer be separated from non-bank activity. that argument brought us to where we are today." end of quote, paul volcker. now, i couldn't agree more. that's what i'm talking about. you've got to start breaking up four financial institutions which led us into the economic disaster we're in right now that remain much too big to fail, that we're going to have to bail out again and again and again and that today have a stranglehold on our economy. "the new york times" said that under volcker's plan -- quote -- "j.p. morgan chase would have to give up the trading operations acquired from bear stearns; bank of america and merrill lynch would go back to being separate companies; goldman sachs can no longer be a bank holding company." that's exactly what needs to be happening. the reali

mr. frmost add politician. caller: good morning. i would like to second the opinion of a previous caller about congressman ron paul. he is always been someone who does speaks about the constitution and how we've gone so far from our roots. if you just go back to the constitution, all the problems are solved. i think he stands out above any politician. he is probably only up 3% or 5% of all of our senators that talk about the constitution constantly. i'm glad to see that he will be head of the subcommittee that will oversee the fed's actions. the fed is the problem. the fed is the problem. they are buying these treasury bonds as they print our money. they are buying the treasury bonds from goldman sachs. if that does not tell americans just how corrupt the system is, -- my hat is in the ring for dr. ron paul. host: atlanta, ga., peter on the line for independents. caller: good morning. i love c-span. i would have to split between bernie sanders and dennis kucinich, both of whom i have been admired for a long time. i would like to see them both on a ticket in 2012. thank you very much. host: an election gone wrong in

mr. mccurry about a role of third parties in debates about having 15% of the popular support plus having to win in the electoral college. with the growth of third parties and candidates like ron paul, do you feel having more ideological diversity in the debates even if they don't have a legitimate chance of winning due to the way our political system is structured would be a good thing? >> i think the commission has taken a principled stand that has withstand -- withstood a lot of litigation and the courts. it fits that if you participate in these debates which are fundamentally important to the american people so they can actually look these candidates in the eye and see them in what we have described as an unscripted moments, they need to know that candidate has a mathematical chance of winning so they can win an electoral college victory. that is to be on the ballot. that means they have to constitutionally be able to get elected president. by the way, there are hundreds of people who run for president of the united states that you have never heard of before. they are fringe party candidates. the last task which is important is that they demonstrate some modest level of support
