"well, today i'm pleased to tell you that we're introducing the ibm personal computer. it's a landmark announcement for our division and our company. and we believe it will set a new

for state dinners, mrs. reagan established a procedure with the white house staff whereby the chefs ab butlers would prepare and serve the proposed menu to e her and the president about two weeks before the actual dinner was to take place.it on these occasions, the meal would be presented exactly as it was to be donees for the state dinner. there were four courses for each meal, including dessert. plattered for ten persons, that seated at each serv tables, were presented at the table and the president and mrs. reagan served themselves from the platters. this accomplished a number of things. s they could visuallyee inspect t presentation. see if there was any difficulty serving themselves. determine if there was sufficient food on the platter to accommodate ten guests. and not the least important, mrr taste theea food. at the conclusion of the meal, i mrs. reaganve would come into t kitchen and discuss various es options, give various suggestions to the chefs and butlers, sometimes making minor changes and other tim

such fond memories campaigning -- not so much fond memories campaigning against the reagan family -- >> [laughter] mr. bush: campaigning with the reagan family was in incredible joy. i want to thank everybody that has opened up this beautiful place. it is good to be with you. i appreciate the hospitality of the ronald reagan presidential library. i bring greetings from the wonderful guy who is still very proud to have been ronald reagan's vice president. >> [applause] mr. bush: that competition turned into friendship. and the better my dad got to know ronald reagan, the more he admired and loved him. on the way here this afternoon, and made a call to mrs. reagan to thank her for this honor and to let her know that many, many americans love her very, very much. >> [applause] mr. bush: in many ways, that's name and the qualities it brings to mind is still the standard. a leader of clarity and resolve, not given to idle words, it was president reagan who took command of events, rebuilt america's strengths, and moved to the world towards peace. and morally, he conceded nothing to america's enemies. he be

[applause] bush: it is amazing. seven elections have come and gone since the reagan name was last on the ballot. in many ways, the name and the qualities of brings to mind is still the standard. a leader of clarity and resolve. not given to idle words. it was president reagan who took command of events and moved the world toward peace. strategically and morally, he believed that the cold war could be won, not just endlessly managed. they don't always give up piece prices for that, but peace is what ron reagan left behind and that was the legacy of a good man. [applause] mr. bush: in our time, it is strength, will, and clarity of purpose when america engages with friends and allies and resolves to deal with threats. we see how critical this is to security. when it counts the most, they are missing. to grasp what the next president will face, we have to look at the policies that have gone wrong in the war on terror. despite the elaborate efforts, a threat we faced today comes from islamic terrorists who are assessed -

mr. reagan's mic off? >> is this on? mr. green, you asked me -- i am paying for this microphone! nkley immediately, i thought of that. reagan said he believed this incident is what helped take him to the white house. what will this do for donald trump? >> i immediately thought of that too. i heard you mention it too. it ran that reagan bell. i think it helps trump. he is beating up on the liberal media, beating up on univision. trump has a lawsuit with them. this may not be the ronald reagan we have that one moment there in new hampshire in 1980. this may be the first of many more for donald trump. he seems to be able to manipulate the age of twitter, cable television, the age of the media moment like nobody else's business. i can only tell you the good news for cnn on, september 16, the ratings will be very high. jeb bush and the others will have to go after trump he is and a master of the putdown. >>> when we come back, donald trump's feud with jorge ramos is not the only one. wait until you hear what he says now about a certain fox news anchor. want to go down... nooo... but, t

. >> looking a bit pale and somewhat thinner, the president walked out with mrs. reagan>> the president suffers massive blood loss, but his surgery is successful, and he is back in the oval office only 12 days after the shooting. secret service agent mccarthy also recovers from his wounds. officers de le hante suffers permanent nerve damage to his left arm. and press secretary brady is partially paralyzed and sustains a brain injury. brady devotes his life to fighting gun violence and goes on to pass the brady law, requiring federal background checks on gun buyers. both feelman and brown are nominated for emmy awards for the field coverage they recorded that day. feelman's footage with the unforgettable image of hinckley's gun wins. >> i never had time to be afraid for my own life. i never had time to even think about it. i knew what i had to do. it's my job. i was a newsreel cameraman. it was up to me to bring it home. >>> coming up -- [ bleep ] >> i'm fixin' to get killed, dammit. no, sir, i'm not going to make it out of this one. you tell my son i love him. >>> but fi

mr. reagan's mike off for the moment? >> is this on? >> would you turn that microphone off, please?am paying for this microphone! >> but in 2000, al gore made a goofy attempt to intimidate his opponent, by walking right up to bush as he was speaking. it proved to be an awkward moment. >> i can get something positive done on behalf of the people. that's what the question in this campaign is about. it's not only what's your philosophy and what's your position on issues, but can you get things done? and i believe i can. >> well, let's go with those first two. howard, what do you think of that? >> i've got to comment on the last thing. >> stunts. >> there's an occasion where there's no speaking. that's rare. it was just the double-take and the how you doing, weirdo, get back in the corner. >> horse's ass. >> that one debate, and that shows how much theatrics are involved here if you're gonna use a line, make sure it doesn't sound so canned. it's better if it comes in a reaction. if you make it sound like a piece of your youtube advertising video, people are going to smell the phoniness.

mrs. reagan raised private funds for redecoration. once again, this is ten years later.a 10 y 61, 7 1, 81, there seems to be s ten-year theme on redecorating the white house. the monies that she raised for private funds redecoration and the white house china service that she was criticized so terribly for.na servi we hadn't had a china service for so many years that we didn'v even have enough pieces of china from one service to serve a state dinner. in fact, her first question to chiethf usher rick scouton when they were coming into the white house is what does the white house need the most? and he told her a white house china service for 200 people. that's what she went about doing and i used the line just say no program on drugs. mrs. barbara bush, her promotion of childhood literacy and literacy for adults increased support for the white house committee for preservation of the white house and the redecoration efforts throughouti the executive residence and establishing the white house endowment fund, a $25 million fund so that priv

they stopped at a pub and they had a pint and mrs. reagan had a glass and you can go into the museum and see the glass they drank from. when the pub went under, they bought the pub, dismantled it and brought it to the museum where they put it inside air force one. now you can see it and it's behind bar glass. i discuss how the libraries are very different. for example the reagan library museum is all about personal characters. these are things he touched, places he was, people he effected. for the younger people in the audience who maybe watch superhero movies or comic books, he was a lifeguard in illinois and saved 70 people from drowning and that's why he saved the war from communism. [laughter] but the clinton library has almost nothing about clinton the person. the library being planned in the latter part of the second term of the clinton administration and i still can't figure out why they weren't focused on character and the exhibit at that time. there is what i call an old-time museum table which is a table with a glass top. in the ba

ronald reagan told mr. gorbechev to tear down that wall and it came down along with the evil empire hiding behind it. great rhetoric matched by great words. only one president attained the same level of success and he had some things in common with ronald reagan which is why i started thinking about that as i wrote he this review. abraham lincoln -- well, basically, he expressed himself in a way that the vast number of his fellow countrymen, without ever hearing his voice, he burned his image into their souls and he had a lot in common with ronald reagan. they bottom came from modest backgrounds and ronald reagan became president at a time when you needed presidential speech writers because of the incredible number of speeches you had to give. legal pad, handwritten and very few corrections would come out of whole speeches. but ronald reagan had done himself. that is not true of many a president, i know. the other thing is, abraham lincoln was a man of mossest evaluation, self-educate, but very bright. repu

mr. babbitt: my first problem is the reagan agricultural policies. the president announced he intends to terminate agricultural support programs. i think that is morally wrong. that is a death sentence for the american family farm. what he is really saying is he will stand by while iowa becomes nothing but a giant plantation operated by sharecroppers. that is wrong. gephardt and others have proposed mandatory production extremes.nd other these are well-intentioned but i don't think they will work. i think agricultural production controls are isolationist. they will destroy american markets abroad and drive up prices a grocery stores. take existing programs and make them work. when you make them work by getting the agribusinesses out. we have to stop these processes of sending 10 million-dollar checks to farms in california. --10 million-dollar it ought to be moved not down, but up so that we can say the family farmers. that family program is meant that his the reflection of a purpose of the human thomas jefferson to keep people on the farm and he tha

on the way here this afternoon i made a call to mrs. reagan to thank her for this offer -- honor and to let her know that very many americans love her very much. [applause] amazing. that's an election caps on disaffected/on the ballot or if yet in many ways that they is the editor. the editor. commandresident reagan of events, rebuild america's strength, and world towards peace. strategically and morally he conceded nothing to america's enemies. he believed that the cold war won, not just-- endlessly managed. he put an end to an age of conflict. they don't always give out peace prizes for that, but peace is what he left behind. that is the legacy of a good and great man. [applause] in our time as well, it is will, and clarity of purpose that will make all the difference. good things happen when america is engaged with friends and allies. we resolved to deal with threats before they become catastrophe. we have seen how, in recent years, how critical each one of those result is to our security. when it counted most, they were missing. to really

i would say when ronald reagan said, mr. gorbechav, tear down this wall, i would say mr. putin, mr. baghdady, tear down that cyber wall to see how the rest of the world goes. once you unleash that, people take their destiny into their own hands every time. >> some years ago when it was present, before the czech republic, i was attending a -- in prague. two things i recall is that within weeks of czechoslovakia, part of the warsaw pact, economic opportunity, there were people selling used shoes on the streets, the free market was bursting out all over. but there were two things i recall from being there. i was talking to a woman with forum which was a movement and i asked her about, you know, being a political party. and she pulled me up short and said no, we don't have parties in this country. we tried that. it didn't work. we're a movement of ideas and i remember that instant she got it. she understood what freedom was about. it's not a party membership. it is an intellectual movement. i joked to somebody architecture from the 12th century still thrives there. i joked that one of o

mr. reagan say, turn down this wall. but when it comes to a terrorist, who is a terrorist? if i am killing you and you are killing me, i'm a terrorist. and when you are killing me, you are a terrorist. we are all terrorists. host: i thought you were done. commander, a chance to jump in. guest: when you say that some agreement is better than none, and some cases it is not. if it has been poorly negotiated and doesn't have the provisions in their that stop iran from having a pathway to a bomb, then it is not a good agreements. ,nd when you really look at it if you want to put it in harsh terms, a lot of people say, well, even the president, if you don't pass this agreements the only alternative is war. that is a false toys that has been put out there -- choice that has been put out there by the president. we do not have to make that choice. there are many things that we can do that does not lead us on a path to war. spent its blood and treasure over the last decade and a half leading for what we thought were our national security interests to give this country safe. and thank

reagan. it is my privilege to welcome to the -- the president of my mother's country, my lords, ladies and gentlemen, mr. president reagan. >> thank you very much. my lord chancellor, mr. speaker, the journey of which this visit forms a part is a long one. already it has taken me to two great cities of the west, rome and paris and to the economic summit of versailles. once again, it's proven that even in a time of severe economic strain, free peoples can work foeg freely and voluntarily to address problems as serious as inflation, unemployment, trade and economic development in a spirit of cooperation and solidarity. other milestones lie ahead. later this week, in germany, we and our nato allies will discuss measures for our joint defense and america's latest initiatives for a more peaceful, secure world through arms reductions. each stop of this trip is important. but among them all, this moment occupies a special place in my heart and in the hearts of my countrymen. a moment of kinship and homecoming in these hallowed halls. speaking for all americans, i want to say how very much at home we feel in yo

mr. bush: thank you for your service. appreciate it. >> [indiscernible] >> i went in underneath president reagan and served. [indiscernible] mr. bush: here is the deal. [indiscernible] very subjective. make sure the policies [indiscernible] for the military. or makery to politicize a political doctrine inside the operations of health care. the primary focus ought to be how we make sure we have the highest morale in the military. we won't get calls at the white house if i am president saying we have got to do this. how do we create the greatest morale? everything else is secondary. there has to be a sea change in attitude from top-down.

mr. greene, ronald reagan moment didn't take any guff from this univision guy he loves that.he cable networks routinely now take trurp res conferences live because you get these kinds of fireworks. >> hey, they rate. but howie, you know at the end of the day that is not how you conduct your press conference. well i've been a journal ition for 30 years no one has thrown me out of a press conference before. we've been to many of these things, there's some decorum some protocol that you follow. you don't just suddenly stand up and start screaming at the guy. >> i have the riewght to ask the question -- >> the candidate is reporting and that is one thing. if you're in a news conference where candidate is saying no, you don't get to just interrupt and start spewing rhetoric and jorge knows that he's been around for a long time. as you say i think he got what he wanted out of it. he doesn't seem to me -- he is an anchor and experienced one he was talking i've tbb to cuba, venezuela. you know what happened he happened to do that in cuba he would be thrown out as well. >> he got what

reagan, why don't you have a couple detectives come in here and escort mr.unders into federal custody. you wait. i'll tell you. danny: all right. well, that ought to be enough pierogies to at least buy us a search warrant. great. pierogies? that was intel-- our old friend boris litvinenkom? oh, from the cafe? yeah, mischa's best man. turns out he's a former uzbeki rebel with extensive bomb-making expertise. oh, that explains the mi what?finger. yeah, it does. let's roll.

>> donald trump likes to say that he, like ronald reagan switched parties, but mr. rump doesn't seem to agree with ronald reagan that we adhere to the seth commandment, which is not to speak ill of another republican. >> none of them do. they've attacked him. there has gone out the window, specifically the battle that seems to be the undercurrent where trump is now laser-focussed on jeb bush here. despite jeb bush not doing well in the polls. >> not surprising. the two of them in most polls are number one and number two. clearly donald trump sees jeb bush as his biggest factor right now in getting the nomination. so not surprising that they're going to talk about their differences somewhat. >> but in such a personal way here, we know what donald trump has said in the past and ian tweeted out about this issue regarding immigration and why this is perceived to hit close to jeb bush's home. >> that is mr. trump's style. it's what has, gets him lots of attention, it's certainly what gets him lots of news coverage which helps keep him right now at the top of the polls, bu

mr. secretary during the reagan years, we talked about only 55 billion, okay. part of the effort that worked under reagan was supporting the democratic element and undermining the economy of the soviet union. in the long run, what will bring peace to this part of the world is not for us to have short terms arms deals with the regimes and the other people who hate the west and are supporting terrorism. it's to try and support those elements in the societies that want peace with the west and are preparing some sort of holy war against us. this -- i'm sorry mr. secretary. i appreciate your sincerity and what you guys are trying to do but i believe this treaty will empower the mullahs and make conflict more likely. >> i thank the chairman and i find my friend from california, i find his words ironic. ronald reagan was nothing if not pragmatist and was quite capable compartmentalizing relationships for the sake of a greater good. and his relations with the soviet union with the quintessence of that kind of pragmatism. something is overriding, nuclear capability in t

mr. trump: if you're conservative. mark: i want to ask you about something president obama is facing this year. reagannd others have had to face raising the debt ceiling. tould republicans agreed raise the debt ceiling, or is there too much of a danger to the economy if they don't agree? mr. trump: i would like to see them not have to do it. there is so much waste and scandals that they should not have to do it. if they had people who knew how to make deals -- if they look at what is going on with trade rebuilding thee world. we are rebuilding china. look at what's happening there. short-term, maybe it's going to happen, but it will not be easy to do. i would say it is worth the fight, because honestly there is so much fat in washington that if you had the right people in there, you would cut it and not miss a thing. to clarify, you agree with those republicans who say not to raise the debt ceiling. mr. trump: i do. it will take a lot of cutting. you have made comments about the hedge fund industry, saying that they are getting away with murder. hillary clinton has proposed that you should get rid of
