and i quote a "newsweek" writer who was there during that period.d the martini's being served in glasses the size of bird baths. in "newsweek" and i'm sure the ad world, too, there was a machisomo about drinking. they have oysters and drink each other under the table and then roger sterling just casually throws up. to be able to hold your drink was very important to men of that period. and at "newsweek," the writers would go after these dinners and come back a little south. i don't know if that word is even used any more. i quote one writer saying it was like having a light buzz, like taking a value valium. it was very much a part of the culture. >> how did it turn from you being a secretary to being an important reporter covering the jimmy carter white house. what was the difference? >> well, i did become a researcher after a year. so i worked as a researcher. then the women at "newsweek" in 1970 brought a lawsuit gender discrimination and eleanor holmes norton, she's now a member of congress. she was the lawyer. the magazine was humiliateed that "

let me bring in president of the river twice research and columnist for "newsweek."also wrote the book "superfusion." zachary, good to have you here this morning as the president is about to give out. just to give you the background of the politics, this is marking the administration's efforts to turn up the heat on china amid competition from the president's republican rivals and their strong words on how to teal with china. what do you think the president needs to do to explain their point of view on leveling the playing field? >> there's a danger of a bit of distressing me to. mitt romney wraps up the anti-china rhetoric. he said if he's president he won't allow china to get away with infractions he claims they have. to some degree the white house wants to be perceived as not giving away the shop to the chinese when it comes to the american economy. and there are certainly legitimate areas of conflict intention with china over trade, and that's why the world trade exists. the president says we'll bring a series of cases to the world trade organization because of c

running and we went to the clinton campaign and they said clinton already had a photographer and a "newsweeker following him so we couldn't follow him but if we liked we could film the staff. so in a sense it was a movie -- luckily we bumped in to james carville and we couldn't realize at first he was the guy doing strategy in the campaign. once he allowed us in, we knew we were someplace special. >> what about you? >> the rules so called of the "the war room" which was a basketball court sized place full of beer cans and popcorn and 25 people, actually press was not supposed to be this. that was our refuge. we had visitors on our -- and it was sort of hard to maintain an interest when everybody would then go out to some parade or manifestation somewhere and we'd be left alone in the office there. and that is when we decided to call the film "the war room" because nobody could fault us because that's where we were. >> right. it's amazing when you look at the numbers, bill clinton's '92 campaign raised 70 million dhz. barack obama in 2008 raised almost $750 million. the money, internet, news

time" magazine three weeks ago reported as a cover story how the constitution is under siege, and "newsweek" about two months ago had a cover story about the failure of americans to understand our government. some very scary statistics. two out of every three graduating high-school students today believe that the three branches of government are republican, democrat, and independent. that is an actual poll. 75% of all americans don't know that religious freedom is protected by the first amendment. 75%. more americans can name the judges on "american idol" than on the supreme court of the united states. what does this mean to us? how did we get here? well, first of all, unless the next generation understands the obligations imposed by the constitution, we are going to have a serious, serious problem. my children can always tell me about their rights, but very rarely tell me about their responsibilities. those responsibilities are critical to our future as a country. the fact of the matter is, if we do not understand the constitution, if our children do not understand the constitution, and ap

you may not know that "newsweek" recently recognized oakland as the second best can do city in america. in looking at 200 cities, they evaluated an interesting set of criteria, and i want to read through them very quickly because i think you will find them interesting. they looked at emissions -- 13 major pollutants/the population to create a carbon footprint for oakland. they look at the increase in building permits, the increase in lead-certified buildings. they looked at the number of people who have health care. they looked at people over 25 getting college degrees. they looked at the number of it -- the increase in the number of people taking public transportation and walking to work. on the basis of all of those, concluded that we are the second-best can do city in the country. and we have known that for a long time. i want to end this with a couple of comments -- many of you know that i am very much a political animal and that i have had a very long will the -- love affair with this city, and it continues, so i want to give you a little bit of political advice. you prole another

people's temple in the beginning ever thought or imagined that they would end up on the cover of newsweek as a dead body. but what happens, i think, as you become part of an organization that requires total commitment, you begin to make compromises, which are justified by your faith and commitment - that your goal is worthy; racial equality is something that we want. however, if you begin to coerce people or threaten people, then your goal is compromised, and you're compromised by decisions that ultimately lead to the final decision to die together in the jungle of guyana. >> from the media coverage of the event, you didn't get any sense of the isolation those people were in, in guyana. can you help us out with the geographical and informational vacuum there? >> i think it is difficult for us to understand how completely isolated the people in jonestown were from the rest of the world. it was literally in the middle of a jungle in the western part of guyana. there were only two ways you could get in - one was upriver, through the jungle in the kaituma river. the other way was to fly into
