some people look at the permanent campaign more broadly. you can look at the polling operations and efforts to sway the public opinion. but my focus is on the electoral questions the presidents contract and how the deal with it. >> so when we see president obama were president bush standing a lot of time in florida and in ohio, that right there is the key? >> right. what sparked the idea for this book is president bush's first term, president george w. bush, the time he spent in ohio, florida, pennsylvania, and you can certainly find examples of presidents attending to the electoral concerns, but i said what we see if we look at it systematically, if we looked at it over decades, with the presidents do, what patterns would play out and is there a disproportionate focus on the electoral matters to the estimates and what did you fight? >> the short answer is that we have seen a substantial increase in the time that presidents devote to electoral concerns. and the clear indicator is fund-raising. if a president goes to ohio to years before the

the permanent campaign has kept closely in touch with the voters.the rest of fundraising keeps them in touch with certain voters more than others, those that are able to offer financial support for his campaign. and they're certainly a permanent campaign that's an important part of our political system, but it does raise questions about whether the system i have is the system we want to have. >> host: brendan doherty is the associate director of clinical science at the u.s. naval academy. he is the author of "the rise of the president's permanent campaign." you are watching booktv on c-span 2.

stone to getting permanent housing. a lot of folks in the community who are chronickly homeless had all kinds of homeless, they had no id's, they had no benefits, so they needed a place they could feel safe, they needed a place they could keep their belongings without them getting stolen and there was a great starting point. over the years this model has worked pretty well and rooms have been added. today we have in 8 different private hotels about 250 stablization rooms so the program really expanded. and one of the neat things about these rooms, we don't need to do credit checks, we don't need to do checks about people's legal histories. there are literally places that are so low threshold we can have people get in these rooms off the streets. availability is always an issue but our current case management capacity at any give religion time is about 280 beds. right now we have the number of beds more or less we need to handle the population size we do. the ability to move people instantly off the streets and therefore

permanent settlements evolved. simple shelters became substantial dwellings to protect young and old alike. macneish returns to the valley where he found the first corn. he is now seeking evidence of the earliest permanent settlement, perhaps the beginnings of a village. a few miles from the caves, in the ajalpan clay pits, macneish spots a familiar pattern. high in this wall, is a blackened layer of charcoal and just above it, the cobblestone floor of an ancient house. the floor dates to 3000 b.c., 2,000 years later than the hunter-gatherer settlements in the caves. what we're getting here is a big piece of burned clay. it's lying on top of the floor and is, from looking in here, is a piece of the wall. what they did is they took clay and, like the hebrews in ancient egypt, put grass in the clay and then plastered it on the sticks which were the wall of the house. it's very much the same system the indians up in the country have today. we'll get the shape of the house from the post holes, so, we'll know a lot abou

. >> well, you know they say the only things permanent are death and taxes. once a new tax is implemented we often find even though it's called temporary when it gets passed, it ends up bking permanent or longer term than was discussed. i would love for my colleague here to tell us that she won't support extending that tax beyond the 8 years if it were to pass, but i believe that there's other ways that city college can stay afloat and continue to serve a declining student population. they might close some of the new campuses they've opened recently and consolidate facilities. >> thank you. do you want to offer comments to starchild's opposition? >> i think the, one of the primary things we need to remember is that city college of san francisco, which is an institution that san francisco really counts on, i think, for both our economy and for all of the community, has been operating under duress for a number of years. we can and we will make the smart reforms, we already are making the smart reforms that need to be made around scheduling, around addressing th

what i was when i was reading that it was calling it a permanent state but that the stay pending the appeal and it was an issue by the three judge panel one of those judges granted an emergency stay a couple of weeks ago i guess i want to know from you are a little bit about the timing i mean what is the emergency here. well the from our perspective the emergency is it any point in time as long as there is this day and as long as the n.d.a. is in effect at any point in time our point this or any other journalist or activists could be taken to a military prison and detained without counsel and without right to a trial by jury at any any time of the day or night that's that's the emergency that we have and we fake it violates the first amendment and since men united states constitution the government is saying that they're there emergency is that they are repeated the president is impeded and cannot conduct the war effort as long as judge force orders in place and the n.b.a. doesn't exist we say that's nonsense because the president of all sorts of powers at his disposal to go after te

district court judge katherine forest to permanently block the controversial provisions in m.d.a. on the grounds that they violated both protections by the first amendment and fifth due process a few months ago i sat down with one of the plaintiffs in the case hedges a hedge is the obama here's chris hedges himself breaking down the two sections of the n.d.a. that the lawsuit focuses on sections of ten twenty one and ten twenty two which in essence allows the executive branch to strip an american citizen of their constitutional rights to due process and to hold them in military facilities that's what we're question a very very tiny part of the bill which i think you know you don't have to be a legal scholar to determine is clearly unconstitutional mean we agree just violation of constitutional rights is really you know undeniable so we want to break down exactly what yesterday's ruling means for the n.d.a. for journalists and for the country itself i'm joined now by carl mayer attorney for the mayer law group karl what's the bigger takeaway here from this latest ruling on n.d.a. .

we use that as a way to get people back in permanent housing. but we want to keep the threshold as low as possible to help people who have been on the streets sometimes for years to get into housing. >> (inaudible). >> denise, you had a xwe. >> i will thank you both for being here. i was curious, i want to hear from the client perspective, what kind of feedback do you get from your clients that go through this program? >> i guess we can address it both ways. >> yes, whoever, thank you. >> for the stablization program overwhelmingly it's a positive response. people are happy to have a room that, we ask paepl to save up money but they don't have it pay for the room. there are complaints, there are complaints about bedbugs, there are complaints about people in the space using drugs and alcohol. these are private hotels and we don't have control over every single unit in the hotel. there are people that come into the hotel to sell drugs. this is a reality in the area we're talking about. there are neighbors that are using and it's tempting it use wi

people voting in my district, as they will not be inclined to register while they are waiting for permanent lodging. they are forgeting about local folks who already live here in favor of attracting those who are moving here and giving them short-term while they wait to rent or boy many of the condos that are not even affordable to many san franciscans. a young couple could always start in a cheap apartment in the tenderloin. not so any longer. show me a second or third generation san francisco who is interested in a finished $1900 studio apartment? native san franciscans are being priced out of the city in favor of transplants. yes, 32 years ago i was a transplant, but not this kind of transplant. i was a low to mid-income wage earner. thank you. t-good afternoon, supervisor. my name is brook turner with the coalition for better housing. first, may i begin by thanking supervisor chiu and his staff amy chen for working so hard to try to figure out a way to do this that didn't hurt the rental property owners or the corporate suites companies that would actually be obeying the law already. ou

it was the fact that she was abusing our place and had a permanent hold on it as along as she paid that rent. so think about make something concessions to owners. we're not ogres and not the enemy. maybe we could all just wear yellow arm bands or something like that. i'm really angry about this. >> thank you very much. next speaker. >> good afternoon supervisors. ted with the san francisco tenants union. with corporation suites and other short-term rentals we have lost well over a thousand rental units in san francisco. this is great legislation because it lets us hone in on those corporate rentals, but also gives us a real enforcement proviction that we can deal with the short-term rentals as well. we at the tenants union have been seeing this lap for a number of websites and we actually did some research on one of them vacation rental by owner, and we were able to identify a number of addresses. and surprising found there were a significant number of buildings which were being used as short-term rentals following ellis act evictions and other evictions. and found that most of the buil

his visionary leadership with the make over has created 600 construction jobs and 700 permanent jobs about three which of are in this target store. we appreciate the partnership as we work to bring san francisco a target store and we are pleased to have him today and ladies and gentlemen it's a great pleasure to introduce ed lee. [applause] >> you got to know i was more interested in bull eye's recognize to my name. thank you for that introduction and thank you bulls eye for wears 49er red. [applause] . it's my pleasure to be here. i can't think of a more centralized place for the target store to happen right in the heart of san francisco. i know john is here with our convention bureau and we are finishing a couple of weeks of huge conventions here and last week it was oracle and 50,000 visitors come here and i know they walked by and i know they thought it was open and poking their nose and get in and the ax tributes that you have here, but i want to contribute -- congratulate target and west field and over a year ago i was here punching holes in the wall just expecting a great thin

and such a way to intimate these are permanent binding commitments. the point* of fdr calling them the second bill of rights just as important as the first. you would not say give up on free-speech it costs too much but you find the money because it is a duty. but there also people on the left that say this is a high-risk strategy. take half a loaf and compromise to change the terms. efforts have been made but i say because of the minority of the gap of funding it cannot be finessed as easy as social security was in the '80s. they will have day tremendous fight to among themselves it will be interesting to see what conservatives say. when alexander hamilton and read about the public credit he made it explicit. 11 is can we borrow? second, our our promises good? that we will use the money for the purpose we borrow it for. we will wisely administer the debt. those are tightly interwoven of the of welfare state. one of my friends solution was to move towards means testing so in a presumably rich country and getting richer, individuals should pay for more

we are going to do it in a format that permanently reflects a draft status and when the permanent ones are posted they will be the final version. so we are going to change that policy to make it more user friendly. >> i think that is a good change. >> any questions, any public comment on the minutes? >> minutes... >> paul, korer again, i was one of the citizens of the city that complained that all through the mayor coreni hearings i did not see one meeting where the proposed minutes were ever published as we went meeting to meeting to meeting to meeting. and the sunshine ordinance states that draft minutes must be made available within ten days of the meeting. so the whole ethics commission is in violation of the governing law of this county which is the sunshine ordinance and i say that in a sense that in 6736, the sunshine ordinance reads that it is supercedes all other law in the county. so that is with regard to public access and information, and the minutes of meetings definitely is not something that the controller's office can say is privileged and confidential and we can't shar

when we convert the condos the price of that property is permanently increased and we can't get it back and so we need to come up with creative ways to keep the housing affordable. we approved $26 million to muni and yet all of that money, not one penny of it was spent on services it all went to other departments such as when the police closed down the streets for parades. we need to make sure that money is used for service and not distributed to some other department. i work with the community to improve public safety, through community policing and maybe some substations for our areas that we need them in for ourselves just the same way that twitter has. and now is the time to bring ethics and a strong advocate for the people back to city hall. i ask you to vote for me, hope johnson, this november and i thank you for your time. >> my name is kristine olague is i am the current incumbent for district five. this includes the fillmore, western addition, cathedral hill, japan town, lower pacific heights, lower and upper hate, nopa and coal valley and the neighbors. i am running to serve a

still have due process sadly now obama's attorneys immediately put an emergency injunction and a permanent stay on judge forest's ruling on tuesday a three judge panel approved so why would obama pursue such an aggressive response to a judge that he himself appointed pulitzer prize winning journalist chris hedges put it like this he said the fact that they responded so aggressively. i think is an indication to me and the lawyers that they are already using the law because of the laws taken off the books and are holding us citizens and military facilities that's what section ten twenty one permits the military to carry out domestic policing pulled u.s. citizens and their facilities strip them of due process that of course hold them in their offshore penal colonies like one ton of a bay or bag room so if they were holding citizens in a lot of stricken off the books as unconstitutional as judge forrest did they would be in contempt of court so there you have it you can still be indefinitely detained for being accused of supporting terrorism and if you're not pissed you should be i am and that

make it illegal for them to be in buildings occupied by permanent residents for more than 30 days, less than 90 days. or that they don't offer a year lease. so we would love to continue this dialogue with your office. and that is what we have to say. thank you. >> thank you very much and i hope that the department of building inspection knows exactly what site you are referring to in case there is any work that can be done now. thank you very much. next speaker. >> good afternoon. my name is joe and i'm a resident of the golden gateway. i have live there had for 18 years. when i first started my tenancy in july of 1995, i quickly made contact with existing tenants and formed friendships with them. some of them have lasted to this day, even though some of those tenants are have moved out and then i noticed that certain parents on my floor, the 14th floor, where there are 20 apartments, didn't house them and learned that they were rented to corporation for their overflow tenants. it changes the atmosphere considerably, if you rent an apartment or even if you buy a home, you want tenants t
