here you are comparing nelson mandela to president obama. -- "while it took 27 years in prison to mold the nelson mandela we know the american president has achieved a mandela-like temperament. while mandela's world was forged in the cauldron of racial politics. whatever mandela may or may not think about the new president, mn deal la is his true successor on the world stage. the right wing hates that because they hate it. your thoughts. explain. >> well, chris, the right wing has problems with nelson mandela. nelson mandela was a terrorist in america until he was released from prison. he was a revolutionary who fought against an ally of the united states. even though that ally had an apartheid government that discriminated against people that weren't right. let me clarify the comment. it has aroused a little bit of controversy. i'm not comparing obama's achievement with mandela's. i'm comparing their two temperaments. one thing i write about in "mandela's way," the man who went into prison was 48 years old and his temperament then, he was p

former senator gaylord nelson. i'm sure if he was told as a kid growing up in clear lake, wisconsin, close to my wife's hometown a population of less than 400 people that he would one day rise and become the father of the modern environmental movement and the creator of earth day, which is sell brailted in over 167 nations throughout -- celebrated in over 167 nations throughout the globe, he would have thought you were kidding. it's a true american success story. he lived the all-american story but he also leaves an important legacy and a reminder to all of us as inhabitants on this beautiful yet fragile planet of ours that her mere stewards of the precious resources the good lord saw fit to bless us with and as stewards of that, we have a special moral and personal responsibility to utilize those resources reasonably and sensibly. so we have a legacy to pass on to future generations to also be goods stewards of this planet. i'm proud to represent a congressional district in western wisconsin which was home to the

nelson rockefeller shortly after... >> rose: nelson rock feller? >> in hyde park at the presidential library there's a fragment of his autobiography, nelson rockefeller's, where he says the most important person in his life outside his family was franklin roosevelt. so he took great pride in 1973 with john lindsay in announcing this. arthur schlesinger gave the keynote address. i was there at that occasion. and so i think nelson then became vice president of the united states. so he left new york. louis kahn died, as you pointed out. >> rose: in '74 in penn station. >> and the city of new york essentially went bankrupt. the lincoln memorial was dedicateed in 1922 and the jefferson memorial was only dedicateed in 1943. >> rose: so it takes a while. >> rose: take a look. this is our first rendering we will show you. this is a computer rendering of what it will look like. not what it looks like now. >> right. but the u.n. is right there which roosevelt was the founder of. looks out to the ocean. it will be to the east river what the statue of liberty

i think you'll agree largely because of nelson mandela. >> yes.d with him in '92, '93, '94 that the country was very close to a potential civil war. this idea that he represented when he came out, forget the past, forgiving whites for apartheid, saying let's reconcile, let's move on. let's bring what unites us together rather than what divides us was something that he understood that he had to do as a leader, but wolf, as a person, he felt it. he felt bitterness himself, he didn't feel love in his heart for his enemy. but he realized as a lead tore avoid civil war, to avoid this kind of armageddon situation you had in south africa, he had to rise above it and project an image of harmony, of forgiveness and that is what he did. >> people always ask me what was the powerful interview you ever did. i always say i think it was nelson mandela because of the unique ability he had to get beyond 25 years or whatever it in prison and deal with a crisis situation so peacefully, so honorably, he certainly is an amazing, amazing man. rick stengel, thanks for

>>> today in washington, all 41 republican senators lined up unified along with one democrat, ben nelson of nebraska, and they all bravely insisted that wall street reform not be debate the on the floor of the united states senate. just to be clear here, they did not vote wall street reform down, they voted to not allow it to be discussed. even without ben nelson, democrats have 58 votes in the senate on this, a huge majority in favor of passing wall street reform. but republicans are filibustering, they are insisting that it not even be talked about on the senate floor. which is not to say the negotiations on this are over. republicans say they do want to keep talking. they just don't want to do it in the senate. you know, where people can see. republican senator richard shelby reportedly still trying to work out a deal with democrat chris dodd. a number of republicans considered possible votes for some version of reform in the end. but today's vote to not allow debate on the senate floor really just means that republicans want the political negotiations on wall street reform to happen

senator gaylord nelson. the day brings attention to environmental issues worldwide. i'm old enough to remember the first one. judy, it does help keep environmental issues on peoples' minds without pointing fingers, earth day does. what about the press? the media coverage of it? >> i think the press is accustomed to covering this annual event as people are accustomed to exploiting it. what has happened is earth day has for both media and i think for mainstream world, have become a kind of victim of its own successor it's now a big business. so you have as leslie kaufman wrote an extraordinarily good article in the business section, earth day is big business, including the umbrella that enables you to drain and reuse water. >> i remember growing up in denver as a kid we had terrible pollution problems in the 70s that has gotten better now. >> it has gotten better and the environmentalists should celebrate that of course they are too busy dooming and glooming about global warming. every movement starts out i'd deal list tick then becomes a corporation and a racket. -- >

done it to the party, but do not particularly care to have my money go to people like senator ben nelson of nebraska, or blanche lincoln of arkansas, or some of these who have been willing to hold america hostage while they squeeze the golden pot for their own benefit. it is obscene. i have listened to some of the people calling to do. now that i'm getting older and beginning to contemplate probably ending up in a nursing home, i think about the possibility of wearing a diaper, eating baby food, and having to listen to some of these people who call our president and communist -- [laughter] -- and think he should be impeached as a result. probably the healthcare bill should have included government- funded assisted suicide. host: we will leave it there. ahead, talk about what is ahead in politics and congress with jonathan strong. we'll talk about congress, politics, and the weeks ahead. first, a look at the sunday shows. >> topics will include the economy, health care, politics, and national security issues. the guests on the "repress" will include christina romer, former homeland securi

as senate republicans plus senator ben nelson of nebraska have demonstrated over the last few days is that we felt the bill that we started with was not insignificant and needed to be improved. and senator shelby was given the opportunity as a result of staying together to be empowered to improve the bill that had previously come out of the banking committee on a straight party-line vote. so i just wanted to take the opportunity to thank all of my republican colleagues plus senator nelson of nebraska in giving us the opportunity to improve the underlying bill. and i want to thank the senator from alabama for his efforts in that regard. i think we have a better starting place than we would have had earlier, and we look forward to the, the majority leader indicated we'll have an open amendment process and plenty of opportunities to treat this like the serious comprehensive bill this is. we have many amendments that we intend to offer. our members will be prepared to accept reasonable and short time agreements so that we can get these amendments up and voted on and hopefully have an oppo

one democrat defected -- talk about ben nelson. negotiations continue. one of the takes from "the washington post" is one of their own polls and they write that about two-thirds of americans support stricter regulations on the way banks and other financial institutions conduct their businesses. this is from a post/abc poll. citing their own pole in the lead to the story. lorraine, republican, good morning. caller: good morning. i think that they have to further negotiate more to change some of those things that the majority of people are against. host: like what? caller: like, they cannot become like a socialist company by owning everything -- for anyone to invest than any institutions. that is not right, either. ed, let us hear from ithaca, new york, independent color. what do you think of the senate vote? caller: i think it is crazy republicans can continue to pretend they are on the people side when they continued to block legislation people want. people wanted health care and people wanted a financial reform and they keep blocking this stuff and pret
