movement and for many here, president obama's visit is a step in the wrong direction. >> what obama is doing is not engaging raul castro, he is befriending raul castro. the only sane connection to cuba is to use whatever leverage obama last. >> the exiled community, for those who came here many years ago, any movement towards noicialsationormalization is nol received. sylvia eliando arrived as a teenager. like many of her generation she thinks president obama's visit sends the wrong message. >> we are going to go there traa moment when there's more repression when our visit will serve to empower those in power. >> among those in miami, they say it began over a year ago and they are still not seeing the concessions they would like to see for the cuban people. but when you speak to younger americans, they do things very differently. raul is sympathetic to how younger cubans feel but tend to embrace a new approach. >> tend to be a little bit more curious about what changes in policy may yield. it is very different. i don't have the scars and the trauma of being an exile the way my grandparents

what did president obama do? not anything untoward, he didn't call for the march of 1 million people into sanford, florida, he said if i had a son, he would look like trayvon, which is not only obvious, but true. and i mean, it was it was hardly setting a flag on fire. but he had just overturned the tables in the temple and people said something crazy. and people bring it up today, two and a half years later, as a real offense that he said that, and he somehow politicized the shooting of trayvon martin by george zimmerman. >> what i'm saying, as a white man, that if my son, even in a hoody was down there at the same time, this would not have happened to him and that's not politicizing it. >> what i'm saying, we have such a hard time even talking about the easy parking lots of a difficult situation. >> because as you know, in 1964 and 65, linden johnson said if we democrats support civil rights and voting rights, we'll lose the entire south. it was a pivotal and political moment. and that has happened. it was a wh

president obama is trying to do all he can with this trip to ensure that the opening with cuba staysnent no matter who is elected in november. he'll be traveling with a contingent of american ceos. some of whom are going to be announcing new business deals in cuba or looking to form new business partnerships. the idea is that if a republican is elected president and tries to close off the opening with cuba, they wouldn't be just taking away an obama priority. they would also be hurting american businesses. suddenly that may not look so favorable for a republican. >> need anybody to carry your bags? >> come along. it would be fun. >> i'll close with this. kasich's team says fund-raising is way up since his ohio win last week, but they can't deny the math. kasich would be need 108% to clinch the convention. even in this wacky year, safe to say that math is impossible. but team kasich says it can justify to staying in the race and trying to position for the open convention. so getting some from utah tuesday is essential which is why kasich campaigned there this weekend, ignoring ted cru

the opponents of the castro regime, or what president barack obama is doing here, they'll have a field day with that. regardless of discussions that raul castro gave. there's not a right in the united states, free public education, the right to health care, the right to equal pay for women making the same amount as men, these things will incense critics of the castro regime and, in particularly, of course, in response to the question from cuban american jim acosta to raul castro, and raul castro saying there's no political prisoners within the united states. it will make things more difficult. having said that, i think the wall is already rolling. regardless of the comments, again. it was the u.s. on the cuban side. the last we heard, they could not come to an agreement as to whether they'd be allowed to ask questions. there was agreement there. now, president obama talking about human rights, in comments aimed at cuba, gave this defense on focussing. >> i think it is something that matters. i've met with something subject to arbitration, and that is something i have to speak out. i he

obama. talk to me about those differences. why do you think that he was not able to do the bull worth moment 1st term? >> guest: the practical considerations were once you get elected, you want to get reelected. he had to overcome certain barriers. he had no record in terms of national politics. but he was a clean slate upon which people could inscribe their hopes, dreams, ambitions, fantasies , and inject their ideals. but now you have done stuff that people either like or don't like. and so now with that history and record weighing on him, and pinching in the public consciousness he had to negotiate those tensions. and when he won reelection people that often prognosticate, well, he will be a lot more radical. i don't think they thought he would come out speaking swahili and paint the white house black but be more explicit on the subject of race. and he wasn't until he was forced into it. immediately after his reelection martha fudge, then the head of the congressional black caucus said you are talking about diversity. you don't ha

office to rescind every single illegal and unconstitutional executive action taken by president obama. >> do presidency as the weakest branch of government as the one that's supposed to be the smallest? >> it is not the weakest branch of government, but it is circumscribed by the constitution and its authority. so, when you look, when the president illegally grants amnesty as he has, that is contrary to the law. it's contrary to the constitution. but, with the stroke of a pen, that executive amnesty will be gone. >> what are two and three? >> also on the first day in office, i pledge to direct the department of justice to open an investigation into planned parenthood and to prosecute any and all criminal violations. [cheers and applause] also on the first day in office i intend to direct every agency of the federal government that the persecution of ledge just liberty ends that day.

do anything. >> and i want to be fair to hillary clinton, but as a secretary of state, she could not force barack obama but the only thing that she could have done is to resign. >> right. which is what a patriot would have done. >> and now, forward, bernie sanders, nothing, and hillary clinton, nothing today. and donald trump, general. i'm going to get them and put a hurt on them. >> okay. >> and ted cruz backed away from the carpet bombing a little bit, and he said that he would not do it in population centers and bring more intensive air in, and support a nato can declaration of war, and john kasich, i'm not shure sure. i have to be fair to the governor and i have not hear him too much there. >> and trump and cruz have been the most specific on it. that is not as specific as you would expect at this level of the campaign, but no question, they will take the war to isis, and exactly how they do it, they don't know e yet until they get in there. >> and that is fair, they don't know. >> and i have no doubt, and you know i prefer trump over cruz, but i have no doubt that trump or cruz, that if if it happ

-- a majority believe in most of what donald trump wants to do in foreign policy and national security and they don't believe that barack obama area that he needs to focus on. my fear, my concern is that his people tell him, hey, everything you're doing right now is great. you don't need to change anything. no, on this, you have to talk about what you're going to do with isis. you have to talk more than just about a fence at the border. you have to address most importantly how this needs to be an effort with allies. barack obama sitting on his butt at that baseball game was a disgrace. and trump should be talking about it. if you go back to 9/11, tony blair got on a plane, he was the first world leader to come to the states and he got here to express his support. barack obama should have left the game in the second inning, got on air force one and gone right to belgium, then stopped in paris and stopped in london to communicate that he has support. these -- i mean, brian, this is a big deal. >> got to hold you there. >> trump has an opportunity there. >> it was, and would have hoped he would have learned from it, but he didn'
