i think. >> people always want to know, what are the new ideas? and if they have new ones, they have not telegraphed them yet. short of new ideas, they will repeat all of the old ones. and i think that is fine. i think that basically, a lot of people will be tuning in, not just watching tv -- the way the white house will disseminate this speech there all the social media, it is not just the ratings. you said -- you have to look at the way they get the message out. you have to energize young people to vote in next november. >> i'm not sure we have hit to war and hard enough. which is fixed obamacare. he will almost apologize for saying -- if you like your insurance, you can keep it. he should stress that obamacare can be corrected. it can be made a useful instrument of this democracy. >> and he can do it. >> toby too defensive. >> don't be too defensive. >> you might be correct when you say, mistakes are made in the handling of this. but 2 million people have signed up. more are signing up. if we have problems, why don't we work together to fix tha

they do need new ideas.h enyou see women in texas who've had one third of their clinics shut down by their republican administration going to mexico for illegal medication abortion, because women are going to get those abortions, whether they're safe or not, they are going to get them, yeah, you need a new policy. absolutely. it's proof enough that the policies that they're enacting don't work considering the effects they're having on women. we know that access to abortion and abortion services and reproductive health services in general make women healthier. shutting down their clinics, making it impossible for them to exercise their rights, making it impossible for them to see a doctor, this does not make them healthier. that's a fact. there's a lot of argument here about, you know, the idea that there's some sort of post abortion syndrome and that these laws being passed are sort of meant to protect women's health. which is, of course, an incredibly condescending thing to suggest. they are not in any way

there are some new ideas, curved screens, and ultra super high definition but you were not excited aboute. >> so, the curved screen is silly. i have no idea why you would want to have watch a tv that bends on the sides. it doesn't make any sense to me. but it is just one of those instances where like tv makers can do that, there are no innovations that allow them to curve glass but it doesn't make any practical sense. 4k is a new resolution they are trying to push but there are innovations in media but there is not much content and there is content catch 22, you have to buy the 4k tv's to make the programming work the. >> why they they not make the tv connect to the internet or netflix? >> this is a huge problem the standard living room set. if you have one of the older tv's with terrible menu systems and such like that. the problem for tv makers they are not very good at software, of user interfaces. the better companies like microsoft and apple makings add-ons, and i say what you should do is buy an old tv, buy a cheap tv and get something like apple tv or xbox and get your media that

you have to further them with new ideas. the candidates in 2016 are going to have to have a new version, a new set of ideas. the basic principles is a core regressive democratic value. the idea that people have a responsibility to take advantage of that opportunity and to give something back to the commonwealth is a core democratic value. and a lot of so-called progressives like to ignore this. criticalvernment is a liberal value. , part of thebook intellectual roots of our movement came from franklin roosevelt avenue from senator ed muskie. he did a speech at the liberal party in new york where he said that efficient government is not an abandonment of liberal goals because ifal to them government is the vehicle that progressive want to use to achieve big important social end s, and people need to have faith in government. people lost faith in government and we had to come in and the clinton administration restored america's faith in government. it is essential all the rhetoric aside on both sides, that in the end of him a c

i want to get an idea who you are dealing with, in case you thought you new willard. i came to find out he was many things to many people. the book tried to capture many facets of his epochal life as willard was a man of epic ideas, epic ambitions and at the achievements. when friends asked me to tell them a story, going back east about a man i was writing about, i didn't know how to describe it quickly so i told him he was a sophisticated forest gump character who witness stand experienced key moments in world history. because willard had such a world lead character and was involved in different facets of business and like i needed to move him through history so i did that. in the book we learn about the pioneer spirit of willard's ancestors, the tanks of the great depression and the 30s era, talk about the uncertainties of war, the family and the community and the communist scare of the 20th century among many things so this book is not only a story of willard's like but an american story seen through the eyes of a kansas entrepreneur. willard came from pretty good s

halt in the industrialized world and i absolutely agree that changing of the generations will bring new ideas and who bring new people who understand the poverty and the division of the social of the social means in a completely different way. i really apologize that i will go back to my favorite topic it's a social media but the sharing of knowledge the sharing of understanding how people even the different parts of the world group who bring to a completely new generation which i'm calling generation have of course from facebook that will pay attention not only to their countries because sitting in the us or in bulgaria even our in germany belgium to go wherever it's very easy to find solutions or to try to. find photos how to find how to fight with our poverty. is to think globally and to look how the american people can help the poverty in india or how the european people can have the poverty in africa or china or whatever so because in our countries which are road to developed countries the fights for against poverty is much easier than to think globally so my understanding is that the pe

there are no new ideas that are worth paying for so thanks to competition and production efficiencies, good tvs are getting cheaper, the cheaper they get the more desperate tv makers become, filling their sets with more and more useful piffle. joining us from pa low al to is farhad manjoo. you have a 42 inch flat screen at home and you're bored. >> yes i've had this tv for four years now and you know, i've looked around like i do for all other gadgets for better things but there really isn't anything better than my 42 inch tv. they have this huge innovation about 10, 15 years ago with the lcd panels and ever since then what happened is they've gotten cheaper and just better at producing them and they haven't come up with a new idea that we should pay for. >> there are some new ideas as you note in your piece, curved screens now are the hot thing, 3-d, ultrasuper high definition. you weren't excited about any of those? >> yes, so the curved screen thing to me is really silly. i have no idea why i'd want to watch a tv that kind of bends a little bit on the sides. it doesn't make any sen

all i would say to the critics who are criticizing new ideas and perhaps new thinking in a more effective war on poverty is we want to hear their ideas too. good intentions are not enough. oncern for the poor? concern for the poor does not demand a commitment to the status quo. it demands commitment to results. we should measure our success but how many people we help get off of welfare. later this year, i plan on saying a whole lot more about this subject. but before i that, i need to hear more from the real experts, the families themselves. if there's one thing i've learned after 15 yeerings in congress, it is that washington does not have all the answers. in fact, sometimes they are right under our noses and right out of communities not in this city. my mom used to always tell me, son, you have two ears and one mouth. use them in that proportion. somewhere in congress i lost sight of that a time or two, but i think all of us who care so deeply about this issue, not as a niche, but as part of a growing experience, we have to ead that advice. those lesser over on capitol hill, we need al
