nixon said america's national defense needs are set in moscow. the guys who followed did not notice the soviet union disappeared. >> my big question is do you think it matters that this is the ticket with the least of foreign-policy experience and credibility in modern history? reagan had a cia director perry bush headed defense secretary. -- director. bush had a defense secretary perry does that make an impact? >> i am a big advocate of common sense. ryan's serious about looking at foreign-policy issues. we survived obama and the problems have come not from his farm policy but domestic policy. >> do they have any foreign- policy experience you can point to? if i was advising the president on foreign policy issues, some of the people he has listened to are very serious people. >> [inaudible] corporations did not take as much. >> why am i advocating? at present, the federal government takes 35% from companies. 35% marginal tax rate. >> [unintelligible] >> top marginal tax rate for corporations is 35%. for individual right now is 35%. most business

national guard. as i became the deputy assistant secretary of defense for homeland defense i got to work with them pretty much every day. i have to tell you, if you don't understand what the national guard, army, and air guard, what they do for this country, you are missing something, because those men and women are heroes for this country. they are the lineal descendants of the minutemen. that is in their simple and it's very appropriate, because they are regular citizens. are not just weekend warriors. they are people who have real jobs in our communities. and then when the call is given, they put down that plow or whatever they do and then pick up a musket and they are ready to help their fellow citizens and most of the time at great personal sacrifice. these folks are important. i cannot think of canada better people to discuss this with you than are two speakers. the first is paul mchale, president of civil support international, a consulting firm in washington. paul was my boss at the department of defense. >> can you say that again? >> my boss.

bill, and i think congressman ryan's experience on the budget looking at the big picture of national defense international affairs, gives him a real perspective that will be very helpful in some of the difficult choices we're going to have to make if the ikt the is elected. >> eric: it seems there is a subtle nuance in what you are talking about. how does it play out when dealing with international leaders or dealing with the crisis say could face if elected on the international stage? >> well, you know, diplomacy and politics and international affairs rest fundamentally on a foundation of power and under the obama administration we have seen our defense capabilities erode and the trajectory ahead is frightening, even president obama's own defense secretary has said that the budget cuts we face if the sequestration goes through will be devastating to our national security capabilities. you know, it is interesting, in the way the budget is put together, the way the huge book of numbers is organized, the first category in the budget, the first category is national defense, what the washington

half comes from national defense and the other from non- defense. divide it by nine. you will save in interest savings. if you spend less of that time, you have borrowed less. you pay less in interest. you end up with 54.7 billion per year that has to come out of national defense and 54.7 billion that has to come out of nondefense it is not just out of discretionary nondefense. some of it comes out of medicare. i do not know how the formula works out over there. it is over nine years. it is equal cuts over nine years. >> the pentagon has committed to cut over 10 years. >> that was relative to projected growth. that took out all projected growth and reduced the budget by 2.3% this year and kept it for the rest of the decade. that is where they get the 487 billion. >> if sequestration goes through and the commission comes through in january, he talked about working through the senate. you can have it retroactively applied in january. are there any weird snags with that scenario? >> congress can make their own roles. they can make it go back like it never happened. a few

lower and having those rates that are lower when there is an encouragement for having a strong national defense with the focus on individual freedom. i think what you are seeing is many of these educational type groups, the individuals will come up and say i generally vote for the candidates. i have found myself voting with republicans. i think more information that the voters have, i find that encouraging. i love to see citizen participation. >> this week governor romney gave a speech going after president obama for the tone of too campaign, saying it was 2 negative. both sides have been criticized for the rhetoric. do republicans want to keep a positive? what kind of tone do you expect in to embed? >> i think you'll see a very optimistic and hopeful tone coming from tampa. gop is standing for the great opportunity party. what you're going to see is the emphasis on opportunity and hope and getting this country back on track. the american people are ready for that. i am hopeful that is where you're going to see the focus. what we will see is that good, solid american. will be put to work. can y
