believe.hat i the nsc, the national security has i think doubled in size in the last generation. nd this president has consolidated more power inside the white house for foreign prior, than any president and it's allowed foreign policy politicized. the benghazi issue is a good example of it. it was clear that this was a terrorist attack, and hillary clinton sent an e-mail to her daughter and to the prime minister of egypt the day after that, tack saying just that they prolonged the lie for as long as they could to make sure that it didn't damage the president's re-election chances. that's not how the presidency should work. you should appoint men and women of real talent in the department department of state, build a team where the national security council isn't the place where decisions are ade, where the president calls in and kind of creates the political solution to the mess or whatever. you've used the national security council and the head of mediator for disputes, and you allow for a hearty discussion about what the policy should be. and the president ultimately has to ma

i she was working on it, one of the nsc senior staffers came over and had some notes from the president, had been that the president, as i recall, just during the disaster and the president had talked about the need to speak to children and to talk about the future and adventure required frontiers required sensitive and sure, but also a willingness to accept danger. if you read the speech you see that thing coming up right away. then you see it was written very fast. the next section is about i think it was sir francis drake had died on that day and talked about that clearly. i'm pretty sure what happened was one of the researchers came in with a list of things that have happened on that day that were appropriate to the moment. you have to work very fast. you have to fit them in. it is best known for its final line, split the surly bonds and touched the face of god. those at the beginning and end of a poem called flight that was written by a canadian pilot and the first world war. i remember some time ago when i was giving some talks overseas on speechwriting by a professor. he said on

or somebody here at the pentagon shared it with somebody at the nsc, and they said, what?ing many he? so they picked up the phone and called. it baffles the mind, really, to think that that many people who would have been involved in that chain, even if it's two or three or four, somebody should have had the presence of mind, situational awareness is what they call it in the military, but clearly the secretary and his staff had none of that. >> jim miklaszewski, thank you very much. >> okay. >>> vladimir putin weighs in on the presidential race in the u.s. we'll tell you what else he discussed. in his annual marathon news conference in russia. take a look at that. >>> plus, one year ago this morning, the u.s. and cuba announced they reached the historic agreement to restore diplomatic relations. what's changed? a look at the continued human rights debate on the island next. today people are coming out to the nation's capital to support an important cause that can change the way you live for years to come. how can you help? by giving a little more, to yourself. i am running

is all inside baseball that is important but the nec is one of four super committed along with the nsc, homeland security and domestic policy council. so legally what that means is the chairman of the nec is president of the united states, where the chairman of the cea is the chairman of the cea, and so that makes it the decision-making forum for policy decisions. and the super committees all get a regular amount of oval office time, and so for the nec we would have enormously economic briefings the week, and that time was where your power came from. and we were attempting to run a process that was as fair and as inclusive as possible. important cabinet secretaries will often get their own separate time, so the treasury secretary might have its own separate time, but seeing who was in the meetings is really important. it's no secret that when i was a better, there was, it wasn't the closest relationship between the head of the nec, my boss larry lindsey, the treasury secretary, paul o'neill. secretary o'neill was coming from being a ceo of a company can sometimes there's an adjustment

this is the idea that the nsc would serve as a coordinating role to make sure what was decided at thelly implemented by those who are set to carry out the decisions. today, nobody's really sure. whenever i hear somebody say, well,you know how washington works, i always want to say, do you know how washington works? you can probably trace how that period worked with gray areas than you can today. >> you also talked about news conferences. john kennedy the first to have live televised news conferences, but in the 1950s, we saw the explosion of network television from the early 50s until the end of his presidency, so how did he use television during his presidency? >> well, he was the first television president really. in the sense it didn't explode in the same way after kennedy came onto the scene, but much of his -- much of the great moments were televised in the 1950s. i don't know. it's hard to know what impact television had, but he had such a magnetic way about him. his west point yearbook described him as big as life and twice as natural, and he really was. as a kid you knew that.

speechwriters don't understand the nuances of foreign-policy and we have to give a speech writer on the nscstaff to bring their national sophistication and at the end he wrote typical nixon tantrum. i think it was the attention of the moment and this language had been changed in some way. that's why nixon was so nice, i think, when i went to camp david to make sure i was happy and i think he realized maybe he had overstepped, but the tension at those moments may be plays a some way into the same. and the tension that is shared and felt even though i didn't know it at the time what was brewing in vietnam. nixon called residents bluth effectively in the summit went on and overwhelmingly reelected and then some other stuff that happened that was not so happy. [laughter] >> i was never asked to work on anything related to watergate. i think speechwriters in other administrations were given a little bit of discretion as to whether they worked on it or didn't work what they felt passionate about and what they didn't want to try to get involved in. that diversified staff had barely diversified wri

mark and allow for the process to proceed in a way that does not leave shareholders exposed to what nsce facing. david: is it in the public interest? here you have the c.e.o. of one of the companies going on record saying it is against public interest. it is a bit like a poison pill. stephanie: it does not make sense. erik: there is no way jim squires will not be talking. he is the chief executive of a firm under attack. i would point this out as well. again, we are not spokespeople for canadian pacific. but we talked to hunter harrison days ago and he said in his case there is a public interest because he wants to open the railroads to the equivalent of public access or open access. that other railroads would be tracks,use the combined which is something that does not exist. stephanie: we talked about opec earlier. we have seen a drop over 3%. i'm talking to a commodity investor now saying this was kabuki theater. the opec announcement was a bruce almost -- ruse almost. now we are seeing a significant drop. what was it going to do in terms of positive impact? just to show it is the sam
