so nikki haley is comparing apples and oranges.ould really be asking nikki haley and the respects why do they want to disenfranchise choice people of color? why are they trying to keep people going to the polls? it's because they know when americans hear them -- when americans go to the polls, they are going to lose. they are trying to rig this election by keeping us at home. >> jennifer: she lists several pieces of id and for people who are not deep into the weeds with that, they think she is right. >> look this idea that you have to have an id to exercise a constitutional right suggests that you have to have an idea when you go to church, when you speak your mine under the first amendment, when you carry a gun. these republicans lead my mitt romney believe you need an id every time you execute a constitutional right. >> jennifer: but what about the difficult for some people who don't have a car or a driver's license and they had to travel 200 miles to get a government-issued id -- >> that's the point. >> that's what is at the hea

you mentioned nikki haley h. -- nikki haley heaven and ethnic advantage. you want to expand on that? >> how do i want to expand on that? this is a difficult question because people of color want to say no, no, no, no you are wrong but i think ethnicity and race are now less of an issue than gender. i think sexual orientation is a big issue. that is an incredible hurdle for men and women alike. and, it's not just because we elected barack obama president. i think a number of things have a kurd in our society through the years. yes there is still discrimination. there is discrimination galore in our society but in politics at the high level, i don't think race and ethnicity are as much of a problem as gender is. please feel free to say you are wrong because i am not speaking from those positions. >> nikki, ted, diana thank you all so much for a wonderful program tonight.

nikki haley is the first african-american woman to be governor any state. >> bob: indian. >> dana: sorryman. obviously i got that wrong. spoke at the convention. why would he call her eva braun? >> greg: two things. left created the idea of hate speech because they're good at it. we invented a word called harpootleaned. that means you say something stupid and ten say something dumber to get out of it. >> eric: i thought that was a biden. >> bob: i don't remember us having a long discussion when paul ryan gave his speech full of misstatements. >> greg: he didn't call anybody hitler. >> bob: you are right about that. >> dana: why did you bring up paul ryan? we are talk about the fact that democrats called republican, referring to them as nazis? bob, that is desperate. >> bob: johnny burden an ol friend of mine from california made this reference. he is a recovering alcoholic. sometimes recovering alcoholics make dumb statement. witness me. >> dana: that is not an excuse. >> andrea: if a republican would have done it, this would be a huge issue. this points to complete desperation in democr

. >> according to reuters, voters in south carolina, nikki haley's home state, 20% more likely to be black. and just over 1/3 of registers voters do not have a driver's license. anyway, the reverend jesse jackson, the great man, the president of the rainbow coalition joins us. you were calling me up last week. you were so angry and concerned as a leader, a civil rights leader, about this new ploy to keep people from voting. >> the irony of nikki haley, she got the right to vote because of the voting rights act itself. then 18-year-olds to vote in 1970. and then students could then vote. and able to get the voting. she is a product of the voting rights act. their plan is negation, purging, voting suppression. and confusing people. and inciting their base to vote. >> but it seemed like they're trying to deny or really make it highly difficult. if you come from the south like you did and move north and you live in north philadelphia where i'm familiar with, that means you got to go back to somewhere in south carolina to get your birth certificate. you got to figure out how to get it wit

you can't exclude those things. >> nikki haley is celebrating limiting a vote. ability of people to vote by having to show their i.d.s. this is voting rights with one of the biggest entryways to participation in public political civic life for people who had different skin colors and different genders. >> i thought they were fantastic role models. i looked at them and thought -- >> nobody's saying they're not fantastic role models. they are. >> i mean, condi grew up in the south and can play the piano and speak multiple languages, and secretary of state. that's hot. i'm with you. >> it doesn't mean we can't take apart what they're saying. we can both appreciate their american stories and the progress they represent at the same time we're critical of the policy they're espousing and words they're using. >> i'm trying to say -- yeah, i guess what i'm trying to say is that not all women feel exactly the same way. and feel something of comfort. >> yeah, you're right. >> it's ann romney saying we all sigh harder. it's not us saying that. i think i'm critiquing that i

he joins us live. >> harpootlian was talking about nikki haley because she's been holding oppositionss conferences. the obama campaign said this is inappropriate, that it's out of line, that there's no place for that kind of comment, that kind of inflammatory language in the campaign so they're pushing back hard. of course, because this deals with jewish vote and what, perhaps, is the key foreign policy issue of this campaign, israel, certainly the foreign policy issue that has dominated mitt romney's criticism of president obama. on that front, we also were able to confirm with top campaign officials that yesterday the president personally intervened in the decision to change the party platform to say that jerusalem is, in fact, the capital of israel. now, you'll recall they had to change that because that was not said explicitly. we now know the president did personally intervene. alex? >> nbc's ron allen at the convention on the convention floor. we'll be talking about all those things a little later in the hour. >>> coming up, the main event. president obama gets set to make his

republicans say the laws are designed to prevent voter fraud with many, including governor nikki haleyolina, asking what's so hard about a photo i.d.? >> if you have to use picture i.d. to get on to a plane, it is common sense you'd use a picture i.d. to protect the integrity of the voting process. >> reporter: that's what makes the pennsylvania court case so important. state officials argue that all of the old rules have now been relaxed and that any voter who wants an i.d. can get one before election day. it may be too late. the judge has already warned he is thinking about an injunction. that's a sign that pennsylvania's voter i.d. law is in jeopardy for this year. wyatt andrews, cbs news, harrisburg, pennsylvania. >>> coming up after your local news on "cbs this morning," lara logan tells us about her interview with the top u.s. commander in afghanistan, general john allen. >>> and john hennessy weighs in on the high cost of a college education. >>> that is the "morning news" for this friday. as always, thanks for watching. i'm terrell brown. have a great weekend. -- captions by vi

i mean, there are extraordinary achievements made by nikki haley and condi rice and everyone else.he real issue on this campaign, for women, will be will social issues, or economic issues, will one trump the other? because the social issues are very important to women. it's their bodies, their lives, they feel that it's not entirely embraced by the republican party. that's my own judgment. >> understanding, mr. speaker, the difference between todd akin talking about rape, versus the abortion plank in the platform, i understand there is that distinction. nevertheless, the question, social issues versus economic issues as being a big motivator for women is a tough one. >> well, i say to carly, i think todd akin was a choice for people in missouri, and todd akin has publicly apologized. and i think that he's beaten a democratic senator. i think we ought to go on, karl rove said some terrible things on friday for which he has apologized which should remind us. people make mistakes. vice president of the united states -- >> he was joking if he shows up and murdered someone -- >> in the

my next two guests are republican governors, nikki haley out of south carolina, mary falin out of oklahoma welcome here and good morning to both of you. >> good morning. >> good to be with you. bill: and to you as well. governor haley, is the storyline on women working for democrats? or is it wearing off? what do you think? >> it is really not working. i think the democrats think if they say republicans hate women enough that women will start to believe it but what they don't understand is, women are so much smarter than that. the fact that women think about a lot of things, not only do think they about contraception they think about their families. they think about the debt. how average income has gone down. national debt has gone up. we've watched the global competitiveness of our country drop four years in a low row. women are very results oriented. on election day they will vote for their families and they will vote for this country. bill: governor fallin, if you were in the hall last night, before the networks came on last night, there were many speeches about, about 34 minutes worth,

nautsy and john burton compared republicans to the nazi propagandist and dick harpullian compared nikki haley to hitler's misstress, eva braun. peace and love? hitler, nazi -- what is -- come on. >> wait. why are you bringing this on me? >> sean: this is your party. you know what you never do, you never say, president obama, stop the smear, the slander and lies. why don't you say that? >> no! both sides should stop the smear-- >>> give me a comparable example. >> aiken-- >>> aiken was repudiated by romney -- repudiated. >> make crazy statements-- >>> stop for a second -- [overlapping dialogue] >> i do not support demonizing on either side. don't roll your eyes at me. i am smart. that's why you have me on the show. >> sean: there we have it. thank you for being with us. wait a minute. i said to you, why doesn't president civility repudiate it? romney and ryan did say that. >> what aiken said was not a personal attack. look, the democrats have been lectsuring us for a couple of years now on tone and how we should elevate the discourse and how bam balwill set a new standard and the democrats wil

as many as 50 republicans, including the chairman reince prieb priebus, marco rubio, nikki haley, andcdonnell will be in charlotte. and pile ryan won't be far away. among the republicans in charlotte, john spicer who joins me live. >> thanks for having me, thomas. >> absolutely. first of all, to several of the polls, including one that shows mitt romney got little or not post-convention bump. did he miss an opportunity? >> absolutely not. when you look below the top line, you'll see the intensity is extremely high. governor's favorable, likability rating is extremely high. our convention gave us an opportunity to speak directly to the american people about who he is, give them a great understanding about his visions and the solution he has to, so i think by every measure on our side we look at it as a tremendous success. the governor laid out a five-point plan talking about what he would do day one to get the economy moving. conversely they'll have to answer the fundamental question, are you better off than four years ago when president obama came and said i want your support going fo

we had gov nikki haley talking about their experiences. i think ann romney did a good job of explaining who her husband was from a tender side, who he was personally. i thought that was important to get out about governor romney. romney talked about strong women like his mother who ran for senate when it wasn't a proper thing, thought of, for a woman to do. those are thing we were able to get across in our convention and i'm sure michelle obama will do a wonderful job tonight courting women in the same way. fact of matter is one of the things that ann romney couldn't mention is some legislation her husband passed. however there are ways that women have suffered under this president. with around 6 million women out of work. the unemployment rate of the poverty rate rather at 14%. the highestity's been in 17 years. and those are things that mitt romney want to fix. mitt romney is talking about and he will continue to do so on the campaign trail. but these conventions, you have the women putting their best foot forward. but most of the specif

. >> manow you have harpootlian fm south carolina talking about eva braun, comparing nikki haley the governor to eva braun. there was another reference by someone from kansas. what about the nastiness of three democratic leaders? >> well, let me say, we see a lot of nastiness on the republican side. we've seen some here. there's no room for that. we've got issues, andrea. so i'm not going to spend my time talking about, you know, the nastiness. i want to spend my time talking about the policies. we cannot go back to the days when women were considered criminals if they exercised their right to choose. we an not turn to the romney/ryan ticket at this stage in our history when they have said they want to repeal roe v. wade and wouldn't even make an exception. paul ryan has said that. for rape or incest. now, they try -- they said they couldn't fix the platform and they didn't fix the platform. the republican platform says, you know, exercising a woman's right to choose, it's criminal, no exceptions. >> speaking of platforms, there was the big flap here about both mention of god in the

himself or not with an incomplete and the surrogates who stepped forward were john sununu, and nikki haley, the south carolina governor. first female governor of the state. and she took it to the president for this incomplete grade he gave himself a pretty interesting comparison. watch? >> i have a ten-year-old and 14-year-old. i know what's on their report card and they came home with an incomplete, they means they failed. unless there is summer school. there is no summer school. so he is basically said, i didn't get the job done. >> republicans are doing everything they can to sort of hone in on the democrats. their job is to try to overshadow or undercut it in any way possible. the big buzz phrase of the whole convention has been about bracketing. democrats did it for the republicans in tampa. now the republicans turn around as fair play. so are they in charlotte. >> shep: carl cameron, looks like a beautiful night in woodstock, vermont. thank you. we have guests from both sides of the political aisle coming up. we'll hear from the communication director for the republican national comm

marco rubio, nikki haley, the governor of south carolina, governor of oklahoma as well. ryan gave what was more the most part a standard stump speech signal the question for the week for are you better off now as you were four years ago reagan made famous. here is paul ryan's 2012 rendition. >> every president since the great depression who asked americans to send them into a second term could say you are better off today than you were four years ago except for jimmy carter and for president barack obama. [cheers] the republic national committee will hold daily news conferences, daily attack ads. new commercials from the dnc as well. steady stream of republicans across north carolina and particularly at charlotte all meant to act as what they call bracketing or the counter programming to the dnc, shep. >> shepard: bracketing it is the word for the season. as we reported, carl, the president was in louisiana checking out the storm damage there what was governor romney doing today. >> they are quick to say he was in new orleans on thursday and met with bobby jindal but he
