and i would prefer mr. nixon. better for the whole country. >> convention will come to order. >> 1968 is the last presidential year in which it was possible to run for president without entering any primaries. ronald reagan showed up in miami beach, gave a press conference and said, i'm running for president. >> yes. as of this moment, response to that resolution by the california delegation. >> reagan is in many ways everything nixon is not. he's smooth. he's handsome. people like him. and people are confused, they're like, we believe that he's a true conservative and we've never really trusted nixon. okay, so now what are we going to do? >> the name of the game right now is stop nixon. now, if a lot of those southern delegates move away from nixon to ronald reagan, then they feel that nixon can be stopped on that first ballot. >> the real fear was that rockefeller and reagan could hold off enough votes so they could prevent us having a victory on the first ballot and then it would break wide open. now, i didn't

being insipid and actually get out there and be who he was, which was kind of a battler. >> well, mr. nixonhave this election in the bag, but ladies and gentlemen, when he opens that bag, on november 5th, out will jump nixon was that that old, whiny, sad, combative loser is gone. >> and now, nbc presents rowan and martin's "laugh-in." >> sock it to me? >> the difference in the campaign was that whenever possible, the candidate is never in an environment that he can't control. the counsel to richard nixon was don't leave script. >> nixon makes the same speech wherever he goes, all candidates do that. but nixon is speaking on the issues of the day in only the most general way. he's saying there are lots of things wrong with this country, and he's promising to do something about it, but he's not saying what. >> time will extend a discussion in those great problems in which you're all interested. but my friends, i say to you, let's enlist the people of america, enlist their hearts and their minds in the handling of the problems of america. america became great not because of what government did

because the responses here is very sceptical and this is what mrs nixon it's so dangerous and so home food to there are so many examples like if you're looking for an apartment you have to say anderson yeah that you know don't waste my time unplug. maybe. maybe you're right he apartment has a really neat has already been taken statues of leopold the 2nd like this one in the seaside resort of all stand are everywhere but there's no mention that his lavish public spending was financed by congolese robber and no mention of the millions of congolese people killed in the process instead. your official website directs tourists to a walking tour highlighting how the king's achievements bolstered the town's prestige. unvetted she is collecting her son she wants him to learn as much as possible about his family's history her old mother still remembers the brutal reality of colonial rule in the midst 20 century and effete not at all our parents back in africa didn't want us to see how they were abused so one day they told me not to come near us i was curious so i hid and saw how they slapped my

mr. nixon did not want to hear anything about it. the only thing mr. to talk about was the architecture of harlem. you can go back to pat moynihan today. carry it through if the family disintegrates, the culture disintegrates. simple, and people don't understand that. they need to get their head examined. the: reflecting some of political views of our color, wendy and on facebook says minorities need to take a look at the policies put in place by those they have been voting for over the past few decades. the majority of these policies have been done with the disguise of helping and put them in a chokehold. karen is in woodstock, georgia. good morning. caller: good morning. i would like to echo what you just read about minorities following the policies put in place by the democrats. that is the problem. i think black people especially need to leave the liberals alone, because i heard representative green on the they werere and when up there, the black caucus, they spent more time fighting for the illegal immigrants than they did for the black community.

that spotlights the work of black artists because the racism here is very subtle and this is what mrs nixon saw dangerous and so home food too. there are so many examples like if you're looking for an apartment you have to say i understand yeah but you know don't waste my time i'm black are maybe not maybe your pride he apartment has a really neat has already been taken the racism in belgium however is not only fueled by a false image of the colonial era beliefs or colic leopold's like a seat also reveals vital interests. ising the most vulnerable spot east west how vision applies hope benjamin families got to reach things to loot thanks to congo and the congo really helped belgium to become a state's statues of leopold the 2nd like this one in the seaside resort of austin are everywhere but there's no mention that his lavish public spending was financed by congolese robber and no mention of the millions of congolese people killed in the process instead the official website directs tourists to a walking tour highlighting how the king's achievements bolstered the town's prestige. since the p

. >> mr. nixon, do you think you can be stopped now? >> let me put it -- >> no!. i'm not going to stop myself, that's for sure. >> new hampshire was critical. but you know what, we looked at the numbers and nixon's total in new hampshire was more than all the other candidates in both parties combined. >> new hampshire was a significant turning point. it locked in a certain popularity that he had. and at the same time, you had the democrats fighting among themselves. >> the president and his advisers are most concerned about what tonight's returns mean in terms of bobby kennedy. mccarthy worked hard, had good financing and good organization in new hampshire, one of the president's advisers says, but mccarthy and new hampshire don't mean a thing, unless they mean bobby is coming in. >> would this encourage you all to change your -- >> i have no plans. i have no plans at the moment. maybe i'll have something further to say after i see the rest of the figures. thank you. >> would you accept a draft, senator? >> i don't think anybody's suggested that. >> i'm suggestin

i would like to say that the reason i gave the pardon was not to mr. nixon himself i repeat and i repeat with emphasis the emphasis of the pardon was to try to get the united states, congress, the president, and the american people focusing on the serious problems we have both at home and abroad. >> that is riveting stuff. that is so symbolic about the. i am writing about. it's symbolic of this poor guy, gerald ford. he has the worst luck he is the best of any president we've ever had buddies depicted on tv as a physical bubbler because of a couple slips he made. gerald ford was damned if he did and damned if he didn't. so desperate to be seen as transparent, open, transcending with darkness and close nature of the white house under richard nixon. he accepts the subpoenaed to testify about this pardon. and yet, he looked so squarely looks like one of the bad guys we've seen the summer before the watergate hearings. instead being celebrated for his openness, no one trusts him. everyone assumes because everyone is rotten. the have no faith in their institution

but i would like to say that the reason that i gave the pardon was not as to mr. nixonlf, i repeat and i repeat with emphasis the purpose of the pardon was to try and get the united states, the congress, the president, and the american people focusing on the serious problems we have both at home and abroad. >> that's riveting stuff. that so symbolic of the period i'm writing about. it symbolic of this poor guy gerald ford was this terrible luck.this is the guy who's the best athlete of any president we've ever had yet he somehow kind of depicted on tv by chevy chase as this physical bumbler because of a couple subsea mix. i say gerald ford was damned if he did and damned if he didn't. he so desperate to be seen as transparent, as open, as kind of transcending with darkness and close nature of the white house under richard nixon and he accepts the subpoena to testify about this pardon yet he looks so squarely. he looks like one of the bad guys we've seen in the summer before and the watergate hearings and instead of being celebrated for his openness, no one trusts him. e

this 2012 video was presented by the richard nixon foundation. mr. johnson: president's and's -- president nixon's administration is regarded as one of the most pro-indian of the 20th century and one that restored lands to tribes and ushered in a new era of self-government. native americans found a champion in president nixon. a stance that resulted from his personal history and his consultation with indian leaders who helped shape his view of indian affairs. this policy breakthrough took place in an atmosphere of indian activism and even militancy. and in a famous incident, a group of native american activists took over alcatraz island in 1969,reclaiming it as indian land during their 18 month occupation. amidst this assertion of cultural identity and land claims, president nixon advanced a successful proposal to repeal termination,and congress acted on nixon's reform proposals. in his special message to congress on july 8, 1970, "both as aixon said, matter of justice and as a matter of enlightened social policy, we must begin to act on the basis of

mr. law enforcement richard nixon from the '60s. this is such a different time. i mean that was then and this is now. yes, he's trying to appeal to the people who were not just in his base but swing voters who don't like what's going on and want the government to have some control over this. but, saying it in private to the governors which i assume at some point we'll hear from him to do it public but without giving a bri public address whether it is oval office. i know he had mixed advise on that and at least until now decided that's not the way to go. we'll see if that'll change. some form of leadership filled the national void. and, he's just not doing it. some people close to him who are saying he should not do it because it is equippnot equippe it. >> i know he's a third grader and i would not give him anymore credit. abby, the president lamented the fact that governors are not using the national guards in the way that he would have liked. >> i git got bad a few nights o ago. we have our national guard and nobody wants to use them. cities are ransacked and t

mr. it's george wallace or nixon's southern strategy, it was clear, it was intentional, it was focused on us separated, dividing and conquering. and unfortunately, this president of the united states, every chance he's gotten, has led us in the wrong direction, done the wrong thing, and instead of uniting us around the very serious issues that we're facing, covid-19, the economic crisis, the really critical issues we're having around police reform, when the country needs a uniter, the president has intentionally gone after the lowest common denominator. it is very sad to watch, but there is great evidence that the people of america are not going buy this again. at the end of the day, it's up to us. we have to go to the polls. although he has abused his power every day, we have the power to take our country back. and my expectation is that we are going to do that. >> well, unknowable. i mean, mayor, that therein lies the rub, right? if, as errol says, all of these young people who are turning out to march, do they march themselves into a polling place? we don't know until election day. but

is this like saturday night massacre where nixon refused to fire cox and resign? >> mr.n't want to go because he wasn't, quote, unquote personally fired. the president will fire him if that's what he wants. i see as not a firing at all. that's a promotion, and apparently that wasn't good for him either. even though you're appointed by the president there comes a time when you no longer are useful service. service to the president is an opportunity and not a career. turnover is quite healthy. nobody has a lock on being a u.s. attorney and the fact that it is a very powerful position makes it even more important that the president has people who he trusts. eric: 20 seconds left. >> service to the american people instead of service to this president. i think that is what we are all looking for to, 241 days when vice president joe biden is inaugurated because when you look at joe biden's stability, that's what we need now. eric: we are up against the clock, we get cut off. we will be right back. of better breathing. trelegy won't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing

nixon. thank you for allowing us to share our reminisces today. [applause] mr. chambers: bobbie, you are always a hard act to follow, but particularly today. i am reid chambers. i served as the chief indian lawyer at the interior department between 1973 and 1976. since then, i have been practicing law here with a small law firm in washington, d.c. my partner, doug anderson, a navajo indian, is here today at this meeting. and my whole career has been basically involved in indian law and representing tribal interests. before i joined the interior department, i had been a professor at ucla law school, and in that capacity i taught federal indian law and also worked with the legal service organizations, particularly the californian legal services and the native americans rights funds and bringing some of the initial reform cases that were brought pretty much at the same time as the nixon message. what i want to talk to you about -- i guess i should say, let me say one other thing. wally, i remarked last week that i had been a subaltern to wally johnson, and what i m

nixon. i see my time is up, i yield back. >> mr. gomert. >> this is incredible. you call jeff jensen a 20-year -- you callcutor, jeff jensen, a 20-year prosecutor, a political crony. you just showed your lack of cleta withur lack of credibility little basis in fact. rarely, we have anybody with the chip you have on your shoulder come before us. said bill barr was the first deputy ahead, that was two years after i got into the job. you understand -- i understand you got fired by thornburg. he said he proved to have exaggerated notions of his responsibility to present my resent my -- confidence, soon developing a chip on the shoulder, he took actions in conflict with my wishes. once he sent a letter containing recommendations for corporate sentencing guidelines, now resignation was [indiscernible] hadproved to be the deputy needed from the beginning. i can understand why you would be resentful 30 years later, but hesome point, thoughtfully, will get over his chip. the fact that mr. zelensky, i was going to ask him questions, i understand family matters. i am gratef

mr. chairman. prior to 2016 and 2017 the worst known instance of abuse of power by an administration was richard nixon's abuse of his administration to target his political enemies. by any measure what the obama-biden administration did in 2016-2017 makes everything richard nixon even contemplated pail -- pale in comparison. richard nixon rightfully faced impeachment and ultimately resigned as a consequence of his misconduct. the evidence that has been made public has made clear that the obama administration targeted his political opponents, tarring targeted president trump and his campaign, unleashed, weaponized, and politicized the department of justice, f.b.i., and intelligence community and that the decisionmaking to do so went right up to the very top. we know that on january 4, 2017 the f.b.i. concluded in the document that has just been released that general michael flynn was, quote, no longer a viable candidate to be part of this larger case. their investigation did not yield any information on which to predicate further investigative efforts. the f.b.i. is closing this investigation. that was j

nixon in the watergate scandal. he's worked on famous cases like the patty hearst case, also connected to ferdinand marcos. mr.ing the laws in dubious ways in order to nail people to the wall for career victories, and that is the background for comey going after trump and michael flynn. he joins us now. >> hi, liz. elizabeth elizabeth how does james comey go about his buzz? it's good to see you. what is dubious here? >> let me tell you generally, liz, james comey poses as a morally superior, highly ethical lawman whereas, in fact, he tries to use the law to exploit others to destroy their lives for his own personal vain glory. i think he, in my view, is a disgrace to all the fine people in the justice department that wake up every day trying to protect people, not trying to destroy citizens wrongly. and that's what he does. elizabeth: how did he do it in the martha stewart case? >> well, what he did there, liz, was he let martha stewart -- led her to believe that if she gave a truthful answer to a question about why she sold stock, that she would be admitting to guilt for insider trading. she had traded the st

nixon. i see my time is up, i yield back. >> mr. gomert. >> this is incredible. you call jeff jensen a 20-year -- you callcutor, jeff jensen, a 20-year prosecutor, a political crony. you just showed your lack of cleta withur lack of credibility little basis in fact. rarely, we have anybody with the chip you have on your shoulder come before us. said bill barr was the first deputy ahead, that was two years after i got into the job. you understand -- i understand you got fired by thornburg. he said he proved to have exaggerated notions of his responsibility to present my resent my -- confidence, soon developing a chip on the shoulder, he took actions in conflict with my wishes. once he sent a letter containing recommendations for corporate sentencing guidelines, now resignation was [indiscernible] hadproved to be the deputy needed from the beginning. i can understand why you would be resentful 30 years later, but hesome point, thoughtfully, will get over his chip. the fact that mr. zelensky, i was going to ask him questions, i understand family matters. i am gratef

nixon to resign was jim buckley, conservative of new york. eventually it was a group of republican senators that went to the white house and said to mr. president, you push republican into a set senate and for the house they basically accomplish the same thing in the senate, and it's no wonder that they are upset. >> bret: he said we could impeach for a number of different fronts. he also told susan page that if you were a senator boating you voted to convict. but there's more that you needed to know about ukraine and it may not be impeachable. don't you feel some responsibility now that you are saying it should be impeached for other things but you never piped up? >> i'm not saying he should have been impeached but there was a lot of reprehensible conduct. the fact was the democrats are pursuing a strategy that's clearly going right into a dh dominik nitsche. they had opportunit opportunitio connect and it's evidence that they were pursuing and i don't have any obligation to help the democrats dive into a ditch. my thought was it at least takes a book to explain. you can bet that it would not. >> he said to a judge tell me which of t

nixon fired him for it. the american people are waiting on my republican colleagues and you, mr. secretary, to show that same courage today. dialogue,led for mr. secretary, but you refuse to listen to all the people who your civilup against rights rollbacks, against your budget cuts, against your finance reforms that would make it harder for people of color in this country to buy a home. but todayor dialogue you said you were glad to not hear what i had to say but that's ok, mr. secretary. whether or not you prefer to listen to hope you the demands for justice from this country.r >> that concludes the questioning and comments for hearing. for senators who wish to submit the record, those questions are due to the tuesday, june 16. we ask our witnesses to respond to those questions as quickly as can. to both of you, i appreciate the work that you're doing and appreciate you being here to us today in this oversight hearing. this hearing is adjourned.
