a group of alumni of the nixon administration domestic policy, they raised -- they helped me raise money. so i used money that i raised with a group of nixon alumni to pay for it. we used trust fund money. it was expensive. my goal was to show that the federal government could it because most of the time these are all history projects are done by the private presidential foundations. they have a vested interest, i would say, in a certain legacy. i'm not saying all of them have to push for the legacy. the lbj is even handed. it's not true about all the presidential foundation. it was the first time the national archive did anything like that on the scale. i wanted it to have been for the library and not just to write a book. >> host: tim naftali, we're over time. >> guest: sorry. >> host: formatter -- former director of the nixon library. .. p. when you write a book a lot can go wrong and that is the way i approach the world are you i have somewhat in my reporting and a lot can go wrong in 110,000 words. i have been pretty shocked

>> back with us now to talk about this, journalist dan rather who covered the nixon administration extensivelye snippet of many of the nixon tapes and much of this documentary. but, what do you make of the documentary and how it's reflective of your time covering that administration? >> it's a reminder of what was and what wasn't during that period. what was you had richard nixon who came to his presidency as well prepared as anyone in history with the possible exception of george washington and the tragedy that his administration became. i think what's important for the viewer, particularly those who were not born or were not of memory age at that time is the context in which these clips were taken. there is no joy in saying this, there never has been. but this administration under president nixon, the president himself ran a widespread criminal conspiracy that resulted in more than 40 people i think serving hard time. and the president himself was forced to resign as an "unindicted co-conspirator." that's the context in which you need to view this. that two of the stars, if you will, of the

nixon. they were very critical of the johnson administration. ocuments ought not to be stolen and given away. some of these documents did get into the hands of foreign governments, as well as part of them getting into the papers, and the president and kissinger were very upset that this man would be doing these kinds of things. >> you were so mad at elsberg, this dirty guy. i don't have to tell you or anyone else that the anger and the resentment toward elsberg was near hysterical levels in the white house. >> this didn't develop into any pathological hatred of elsberg, it developed into a rather cold blooded, and in my view, a misguided attempt to discredit him in the public eye. because at the time, he was being made a public hero and there was an effort to try to show that this man was not necessarily the great savior of the nation that many were portraying him as. >> i think i changed during the time i was at the white house. i'm not sure whether it was for the better. it probably was not at the time that i was there. when you first go in, at

and there was a real divide among those nixon administration. some were convinced that richard nixon was an antisemimite. some thought that he wasn't. william is among those that was among it. >> it was some disappointing we but he wasn't

nixon. they were very critical of the johnson administration. ay. some of these documents actually did get into the hands of foreign governments, as well as part of them getting in the papers. and the president and kissinger were very upset that this man would be doing these kinds of things. >> you were so mad at elsburg, this dirty guy i don't have to tell you or anyone else that the anger and the resentment toward elsburg was near hysterical levels in the white house. >> this didn't develop into any pathological hatred of daniel elsburg. it developed into a rather cold-blooded and in my view misguided attempt to discredit elsburg in the public eye because at the time daniel elsburg was being made a public hero and there was an effort to try to show that this man was not necessarily the great savior of the nation that many were portraying him as. >> i think i changed during the time i was in the white house. i'm not sure whether it was for the better. probably it's not in the time that i was there. when you first go in there, at least when i fir

the nixon administration adopted the idea. again, this is not something law enforcement was to many. and it ends up passing congress. there were two bills actually. two interesting things that happen in d.c. the police chief jerry wilson decides not to use it. he says it's too invasive, too militaristic and it's ineffective. he takes it out of the metro police manual and tells his office not to conduct these raids. crime was down the next years what goes up and the rest of the country. clearly it didn't hurt things in d.c., not using it. they didn't make things worse. nationally though the federal officers, federal narcotics officers started conducting these raids across the country. this was accounted by a lot of rhetoric from the nixon administration, dehumanizing drug offenders, really using martial rhetoric and went to declare all-out war. you see this sort of out of control my products officers raiding houses, conducting raids without warrants, warrants on the wrong houses. so of these raids then get news coverage of the

[laughter] so we have this thing called the engagement policy that the nixon administration came in, and i come from yorba linda, california, nixon's hometown. live just down the road from the library, great place. the goal was we would seek political liberalization in china, and i mean it in the good term. i'm actually kind of a fan of mr. lock, but i agree nobody is perfect. but the point was that he would have a government that would become more tom rant of all of the things -- tolerant of all of the things that we respect in our constitution and our bill of rights. that we would develop a huge export market that would create wealth in the united states through our relationship with china. that we would get geopolitical cooperation from the chinese government that would be useful to the united states abroad and that there would be progress in china on human rights. so, first of all, i want to be clear: do not buy the tale that there is some sort of progress towards democracy and that every time the politboro puts forward some new guy, that he's the great liberalizer that's going t

during the nixon administration. so this is a question with a long history. a long history of give and dare. be very interesting to see how it plays out. in the context of syria. >> and of course what we are waiting on is waiting to hear a statement from secretary of state john kerry. there's that look and feel. of course you have forces that have been deployed. you have people being called up. so the wheels are in motion, now the president can decide not to, but he has put themselves in a situation where they can exec cute an attack. i also thought the language in john kerry's speech was striking. and he -- the language he used left little room for doubt about the conclusions. and he also said this was a top of the u.s. foreign policy agenda, which is another way of saying it is of vital national interest. that is to say this line of chemical weapons use is of vie call national interest. if you take the tone of that speech, he almost seemed angry to me. it was a surprising speech emotionally. and then the actions on the ground. those all give reason to think

and in fact i did the peace accords signed in paris in one nine hundred seventy three the nixon administration promised three billion dollars toward healing the wounds of war and for post-war reconstruction of vietnam and none of that. money has been forthcoming but this movement has led to organizations like mine that the agent orange relief and responsibility campaign. which helped draft just lation that is now pending in the u.s. congress it's called the victims of agent orange relief act of twenty thirteen and that deal would provide medical rehabilitative and social service compensation to the vietnamese victims of agent orange remediation of dioxin contaminated hotspots and medical services for the children of u.s. vietnam veterans and the enemies americans who have been born with the same diseases and deformities and it's called h r two five one nine that bill the victims of agent orange relief act of twenty thirty ok so right now there hasn't been really any accountability inside the government i mean we just same kind of this lawsuit gets settled not even one from from dow chemical an

to cuba and are imprisoned there for shirley afterwards you have the executive order by the nixon administration to say we have to start screening every betty j. dray 51973 the first day all passengers had to have back surgery and metal detectors. tried way they plummet at zero state resisted so long so afraid of losing business treating a bit like criminals because they were flying but they saw in the not too distant future of mass destruction. >> was this an american trend where other people doing that? >> it was happening all over the globe in fact, before in america it originated pretty much in europe from people from the soviet bloc's like the czech republic and poland would hijack planes in go to west berlin or copenhagen of course, we do not call them hijackers but is scabies but hijackers had a bizarre background gangsters would hold up the liquor tracks so it was a criminal and pejorative connotation so they were escapees that was hijackers and happening all over the world and colombians especially. in the greeks and the most well-known of the hijackers were the liberation of palestine

republican slipped that little five billion dollars you have a sense of making money since the nixon administration we can't change it you tell me why the stamp isn't that exists why isn't this cause i think i was sick so as to delay al gore astley exactly why is why is because i have not. because they well dollars because what i say when charge because that's the price that they have to pay in order to get out that is what i heard live or money to be considered male sort of back to me that i was going to say that there are some e-mail services that have arisen now that you can pay for like reagan dot com where they do give you an expectation of privacy right well that's where they speak that they're selling that's there i know but here's the problem that because it's a private corporation we just had two private corporations one of them ed snowden had been using that were offering private encrypted encrypt decrypt the whole thing you know e-mail services and when the when they got the f.b.i. letter same handed over they committed corporate suicide they went out of business and they destroyed their

well, the big reason is, there's a new cnn documentary exploring the nixon administration.rather knew how to sink his teeth into a story and he's a hero to so many young journalists in this business. we'll get his take not only onyxon but how reporting has changed. it's going to be a real treat. >> we're all looking forward to that conversation to get a little insight. i like the fact that we're young reporters. >> i have seen the nixon documentary, it's outstanding. >> it looks fabulous. >> the footage is just breathtaking. these people seem so young. chris, kate, thank you so much. >>> coming up -- an nfl star caught on camera making racist remarks what his teammates are saying now. this is strange. coming up next. na® oil free moie hydrates without clogging pores. 100% free of oil, fragrance and dyes. oil free. worry free.

investing these things across the country and this was a company by a lot of rhetoric from the nixon administration really using this martial rhetoric, saying that we have to declare all-out war. and then we talk about connecting wines and being in the wrong houses and several of these things get some news coverage and we find dozens more cases and congress holds hearings and they bring these people into testified and three years later the repeal these laws and actually pass another law making the federal government liable. it was like ours could sort of say that went too far here. so throughout the 1970s these trends continued. in 1975 there were about 500 s.w.a.t. teams throughout the 70s that had bought into this original purpose. situations that are being used to respond to riot after shooting situations and hostages they are used in a way that is very effective and it seems to be moving along in its own way. it is usually undercover officers in plain close. it was really during the 1980s that you see these two trends converge when reagan really takes this drug war metaphor and makes it literal

the presidency and save them from shame and embarassment that we haven't endured since the nixon administration? >> it is like an east germany, west germany type thing. it is really tearing at us. i hate this story for a thousand reasons, but mostly it is the great fake controversy. we need a great fake controversy. the republican congressman, not only is he not doing his job -- he is a congressman, of course he is not doing his be jo. but he is furthering the story. nothing happened. the guy did a bad comedy act. it wasn't racist. >> between shows and doing it to open the show and pushing it forward -- >> we are doing the show. that's what you are saying. >> this is longstanding rodeo tradition and they should double down this. liberals have no sense of humor. they are only good at making fun of other people. they never think it is okay when the joke is on them. he is going texas size too. they will do this bigger and better and go crazy with this. they should make an example of people who cannot laugh at themselves including and especially the president of the united states. >> there has to b

the parking garage pivotal to the watergate scandal will now be coming down faster than the nixon administration you tell me what you know? >> you tell me what you know. >> that scene from the 197 6 movie "all the president's men" shows the secret meetings between deep throat and bob woodward, which took place in the arlington, virginia garage. plans are in the works to tear down the garage to make place for new office buildings. developers plan to put a plaque member o memorializing its place in history. >> and miley cyrus may be getting all the blame for putting these moves on the map but did you know her twerk-a-thon has been 20 years in the making? we'll look at what really started this dan craze coming up next.

[ female announcer ] today, cisco is connecting the internet of everything. so everyone

came to symbolize people to talk about drug use because the current way, started during the nixon administration, the current way is not working. that is what drives criminal justice. that is what we have to have an honest conversation about and i was about to say the best part. i want to be able to have this conversation without people looking at me like i am some sort of drug day. last conversation i had was in queens and they came up to me and said you are not on drugs, are you? know! can't we have the same conversation about drugs without thinking the only reason i want to talk about it is so i can have a hit? by want to have the same conversation. this is what drives the united states criminal justice system. we deal with it, we're not dealing with the real issue. >> all right, thank you, thank you. >> one big one and i will sneak in my second one. my big one is i would expand voting rights. if the irs can provide me a social security number i should be able to vote if i am in kansas, i should be able to put that number in and it should count in d.c. and no reason we shouldn't have the tech

the airplanes out there were originally designed in the nixon administration. they are getting old. the average age of u.s. air force fighter is approximately 24 years old today. we have reduced that size of our fighter force in the u.s. air force by more than 40% in the last 20 years. made to smartly recapitalize what is our core competency, with a capability that is built for the next 50 years. it needs to be upgraded. we need to do it smartly. we need to bring in international components to do it, not only to draw down the price of the airplane, but to share the burden of national security and cooperation now and into the future for the next 50 years. designed to do that. we have it on a production line, a moving assembly. we have our supplying chains built to build 200 airplanes per year and do it efficiently. as the u.s. government estimates show, we are going to recapitalize our fighter force at approximately the same cost as prior generations of airplanes. that is the value behind the f- 35. nexto it with the generation capability. that is why it is essential to our national

through the watergate investigation when reporters bob woodward and carl bernstein took down nixon's administratione grahams had the guts to stand up for their paper and defend that special brand of investigative journalism, which can make you a lot of enemies. but now "the washington post" has a new owner, silicon valley billionaire and amazon.com founder jeff bezos. bezos isn't alone. over the last several years, billionaires have been gobbling up newspapers across the country, from "the wall street journal" to "the boston globe." in some cases, like rupert murdoch's purchase of "the journal," those have pushed a right-wing agenda. the conservative koch brothers are on the hunt to buy up newspapers as well. the question is a pressing one. will the new money have the same guts and drive as the old money or will the papers they buy become political mouthpieces in some cases to the far right. anyway, eugene robinson is an expert, an msnbc political analyst. and brad stone is a columnist with "business week" and the author of the upcoming book "the everything store: jeff bezos and the age of amazon."

perhaps you could compare this to the nixon administration lead in there are abuses being made visible as a consequence of watergate leading to the church commission is that is that a good analogy and if so where is today's church commissioner called you know that's something that a lot of people have been asking is is the cause there's been a call for a new church commission which i think would be very important we also there's been a call for a lot of reforms one of them is this this advocate program that the president mentioned in the speech on friday notably however he didn't he didn't put into place the mechanism that would make it a meaningful advocate so it's not going to be an advocate with some measure of transparency or an advocate with a public reporting requirement right now it's just an extra. quote unquote being put into the system and we need more than that we need a real meaningful person in that role to argue on behalf of the people and i think hayden failed to recognize the distinction there are there are two roles that the pfizer court plays or that it is currently p

foreign intelligence surveillance act was passed in 1978 in response to the abuses of the nixon administration and the recommendation of the church commission. it set up a careful system of a fisa court, an intelligence committee on the hill was set up then to monitor these applications. it worked very well, in my view, through 2001. congress after that pulled it back. i believe strongly that may the amount of metadata is excessive. i am sure my buddy thinks this. that ought to be debated. maybe the program should be narrowed. there has been robust oversight over the years. >> i want to be clear on this. who can accesses data and for what purposes? >> i think this was in a letter that went to the hill yesterday. papers were sent to congress in 2009. i cannot speak to any individual member of congress that is currently now with the knowledge of the program. in terms of access, access is strictly controlled. in order to create the data, one has to have reasonable suspicion that there is a tie to a specific terrorist group that is identified in the court order. >> just a terrorist group. if there

but after that, shortly afterwards you have an executive order by the nixon administration saying that we have to start screening everybody. that commences on january 5, 1973, the first of all passengers had to walk-through metal detector's and have their bags searched. it's funny because right away, hijackings plummeted to like his hero. the airlines resisted her so long because, people embraced it. people were so afraid of what hijacking become at that point and they saw in the not-too-distant future mass destruction if this were allowed to go on. >> [inaudible] >> i was just wondering if this was a particularly american trend and if we were the innovators? were others doing it? >> it was definite, as i talk about, abandonment, happening all over the world. in fact, before it started in america it originated pretty much in europe. from people from the soviet bloc after world war ii, like the czech republic and poland would hijack a plane to go to west berlin or copenhagen and escort but, of course, we didn't call them hijackers, we call them escapees because we like them. in fact, hi

anes werepl designed in the nixon administration.justuying the f-35 for today's threat but for the next 50-plus years. intensive airplane to outpace the threat. the f-35 continues that advantage. 35 is designed to do that. we have been doing stealth airplanes far longer than in .hina and russia the f-35 builds upon that technology. the threat is not stagnant. the threat continues to evolve. is built to do that. this allows us to continue to outpace the threat. this is the right airplane for the next 50 years. host: we have a guest guest: we have over 100 airplanes that have rolled out of the factory. we have 75 airplanes flying today. test inoing development pax river. 30 airplanes are doing training. we have operations going on at marine corps air station's yuma. we are on the east coast doing short takeoffs and vertical land ings. we have eight countries under contract to buy the f-35. we continue to do flight tests. air to air missiles. we have our laser guided bombs. those are being dropped off of f-35 today. we are increasing th

nineteenth century ideals against this big corrupt world literally corrupt in the case of the nixon administration but i think we've seen wave after wave of jeffersonian backlash every thirty forty years following a period in the early nineteenth century during the civil war and reconstruction and then with franklin roosevelt all the way up until the great society when there was a massive bout of nation building the public was mobilized off and there was a civil war for and were great sweeping reforms the abolition of slavery the development of the new deal and the public tartars of this and you get a generational a backlash it's not so much left to right because you have liberal populists and the left wing agree are in good jeffersonian these as well as those on the right and using the hammett's and jefferson paradigm to describe that's right i think if you look at the democrats who've succeeded since lyndon johnson who was the last new deal or a president they've been at least up until obama who i think may mark the beginning of the new cycle. clinton were relatively conservative southern govern

republicans slipped that little five billion dollars deficit are you making money since the nixon administration we can't change it you tell me why the stamp isn't out exists why isn't this cause i think i was sick so as to delay al gore astley exactly why is why is because i have not. because they well dollars because well you and i should charge because that's the price that they have to pay in order to get out that is what i heard live or money to be considered male sort of back to man i was going to say that there are some e-mail services that have arisen now that you can pay for like reagan dot com where they do give you an expectation of privacy right well that's where they speak that they're selling that's there i know but here's the problem that because it's a private corporation we just had two private corporations one of them ed snowden had been using that were offering private encrypted encrypt decrypt the whole thing you know e-mail services and when the when they got the f.b.i. letter same handed over they committed corporate suicide they went out of business and they destroyed thei

when i was in the nixon administration, if the nixon administration had not turned over documents, youe been screaming and crying. in this case the media is complicit. their job in a democracy rests on a free press. not lap dogs. watch doings. >>steve: perfect sound bites. the problem is access. the only people who are close to the president are the white house press corps and they are kept at arms length. and where is the president? he shows up on jay leno for his sixth interview. >> for the easy questions, not for the tough questions, as gretchen was saying earlier today. the whole thing is just -- i guess i'm so cynical that i can't believe they're getting away with it, but they are getting away with it. i think ten years from now we're going to look back and say what are the big stories? it is not going to be obamacare. it is going to be where was the american press corps? why were they not doing their job? >>steve: k.t. mcfarland, she has had about 100 jobs in government. thank you. >>> coming up on this wednesday, the administration says rates won't rise under obamacare but they

look at until that time is in direct and now for the first time, one of the last act of the nixon administration was grounded out into the void, everything goes further and further out, the first time human senses are directly touching that part of space and so there are all kinds of other studies that can show different things you can do that makes you confident that this universal rule book is true but your sampling things you never sampled before. it is a new kind of exploration. the other thing, anomalies are not just how you learn a little more about things like dark matter or dark energy or how you test the theory of relativity. anomalies are the lifeblood of science. when something doesn't work the way you expected to you know you need to do something more so you can sort of read backward the major history of science that people used to have great models of how the planets moved based on the idea that planets ronnie's crystals fiers and the earth was the center of the universe. you can put together a pretty good model with that. turns out the people were very interested in how planets mov

probably not a good time anyway as the nixon administration was in the middle of watergate.wo did not attend the event because of policy differences with the president. >> a renewed debate is raging over new york city's stop and asterisk policy found a federal judge's enforcement tool violates civil rights. now, the mayor and commissioner kelly warn it ties the hands of officers and could lead to a spike in violent crimes. michael mukasey joins us live. welcome. >> thank you. >> tell us where you think she got it wrong. >> i think she got it wrong from the get-go. she said before the bench before it was filed she wanted the plaintiffs to file the case related to a case she had. i think it's doubtful it was. she wanted to decide it. she reached out for it and it started from there. she had 19 separate incidents by the named plaintiffs and she went through those and found some were constitutional and some were not. she had a statistical expert who gave some really dubious testimony. benjamin israeli is credited saying there are three kinds of falsehood, damned lies and statist

. >> regarding the media i am cognizant of the instance of the nixon administration, a couple of cub reporters who nobody believed that dog of the presumed the watergate story, the vast majority of americans were completely apathetic about it, could care less, but they kept pushing it, kept digging it and they were entrepreneurial media types who eventually brought down the most powerful man in the country and we have a reverse ratchet of fact where americans in general said we don't want to trust government anymore and wants to roll back and today we have many more opportunities, we don't have just three networks anymore that control all of the news. there are a lot of entrepreneur is in the media, there's a lot of new media, a lot of entrepreneurial newsmen all over the world and it is a different picture and we can get that sort of phenomenon again and i am hopeful that we can have an even better outcome if we get a few, even just one really great person digging and making a career out of making sure we are not apathetic, that we pay attention, that we get the story and understand

. >> regarding the media, though, i'm very cognizant, in the nixon administration, couple of cub reporters that nobody believed that doggedly pursuit the watergate story. the vast majority of americans were completely apathetic about it, could carry less, watergate what? but the kept pushing and digging and entrepreneurial media types and evenly brown down the -- eventually brought down the most powerful man in the country and americans in general said we don't want to trust government anymore and we want to roll it back. so there is -- today, of course, we have many more opportunities. we don't have just three networks anymore that control all of the news. there are a lot of entrepreneurs in the media. there's a lot of new media. a lot of entrepreneurial newsmen all over the world, and it's a different picture, and we can get that phenomenon again and i'm hopeful we can have an even better outcome if we get a few -- even just one really great person digging and making a career out of making sure that we're not apathetic, that we pay attention to it, we get the story and we understand why

a look of never before and seen footage of president nixon and his administration. rt of a documentarian that recently aired on cnn. this is 40 minutes. host: our guest now is brian frye. of "our nixon." good morning, thank you for being with us. guest: thank you. host: there is any number of movies out there about richard nixon, even recently. what makes this one different? guest: really distinctive thing about this is the vast bulk of the movie consists of home movies filmed by nixon's closest aides. these are super 8 home movies they made while working for the president that pretty much no one has ever seen before. host: how did this come about? guest: initially the movies were in john ehrlichman's office and were confiscated during the watergate investigation and the other material that was in his office. those home movies that in the national archives for very long time. it was not like there were suppressed, just forgotten. unlike the secret tapes or the other types of documentary material, they did not relate to anything of abuse of power issues. there were ig

i remember in the nixon administration we were worried brightly about the damage that drugs to to an individual and to society. so i am very, very much of the view that we need to figure out how to deal with that problem adequately. and there was the idea, and pat moynihan, counselor in the white house thought one of the things to do would be to fix it so that drugs are just not here. he had this program. the purpose of writing a to camp david, pat is in a state of euphoria. he says to me, don't you realize, we just had the biggest bust in history? i said, congratulations. but this was in marseille. we have broken the french connection. that was the problem of the time. that's terrific. i suppose you think that as long as they're is a big profitable demand for drugs in this country there will be a supply. i looked at him and said, one hand, there is so free of. but this effort to keep drugs out is a complete failure. and the problem of drugs in the united states is relatively great compared with many other like-minded countries. so we ought to at least discuss this and see what other

. >> regarding the media, though, i'm very cognizant that in the instance of the nixon administrationas a couple reporters who nobody believed that doggedly pursued the water gate story, the vast majority of americans were completely apathetic about it, could care less, water gate what? they kept pushing it. they kept digging it, and, again, they were entrepreneurial media types, and they eventually brought down the most powerful man in the country, and we had kind of a reverse effect where americans in general said, well, we don't want to trust government anymore, and we want to roll it back, so there is -- and today, of course, there's many more opportunities. we don't have just three networks anymore that control all of the news. there's a lot of entrepreneurs in the media. there's a lot of new media. there's a lot of entrepreneurial newsmen all over the world, and i think it's a different picture, and we can get that sort of phenomena again, and i'm very hopeful that we can have an even better outcome if we get a few, you know, even just one, really great person digging and making

course, those related to the abuse of power issues that were so critical to the end of the nixon administration. and these films really didn't bear on that, so people kind of ignored them. and it just happened that no one was really paying attention until penny lane, the director and i, went ahead and paid for the national archive to make video copies for the first time. >> and i'm glad you did. you know, david, you worked for richard nixon. that was your first white house job, but you once described when you first encountered him, a darker side. what happened? >> well, wolf, i came in as a junior lieutenant. i was a kid, and at the beginning, i was on the outside circles of what happened there. and at that point, when i saw the bright side of richard nixon, the strategist, the intellectual, the guy with henry kissinger plotted out the future, but as i got closer to him, he dropped his guard and invited me sort of close in. and when i saw there, i really saw the dark side. and there was a dark side. there was a dark, brutting insecurity about him. he had demons inside him that he really had not

it is the peak for african american government came during the nixon administration. 19712 mike 70 when african-american homicide rates were high. it was 1980 when you see that accumulated anger over affirmative action. welfare, vietnam, the humiliation of the hostagetaking in iran and their inability to do something about it proactively but it lingered. that's when white trust in government went down most. the way of murder rate the highest, which is a huge rate. then, ronald reagan comes then it speaks to the concerns of those people. same thing happened when franklin delano roosevelt came in the depression and said we are going to have another direction. it wasn't the first service administration, but the second you people started to trust them and say this as someone who cares. an empowered, included, i matter. he said the homicide rate dropped rapidly. you see that drop under reagan interestingly enough. it's not a partisan thing. it has to do with how people feel generally about that person, whether they feel connected. another thing is how connected we feel to fellow americans. t
