ali was able to dig deep never to this report with larry the project director for pew's philadelphia. listen. >> one of the fascinating things we found was that in 970, 44% of the people that we considered middle class didn't even have a high school degree. because there were those blue collar jobs available. obviously that's not the case now. you need a college degree or at least a lot of college education to be considered part of the middle class. and that's true nationally. it's certainly true in philadelphia. >> so when people say -- i have been talking to people about this all day. and they say, tell me why? why did it happen? what happened to philadelphia why was it hit harder than so many other cities that you looked at? what's the answer to that? >> well, i mean, it was certainly hit hard whether it was harder than other cities is hard to say think philadelphia was a heavily manufacturing town. and when those jobs disappeared, it took a hard hit, and it may be took a little longer than some other cities to figure out what the next step was. now, you know, it's a heavily depen

that's according to the pew charitable trust. philadelphia is a poorer city than when it was the manufacturing powerhouse. it lost a larger share of the tax paying middle class residents. america starts to split along haves and have not. philadelphia is not benefitting from the trend. it has not seen an increase in the upper class the same way the rest of the nation has. that can only mean one thing, between 1970 and 2010 the share of lower class grew from 30% of the population to 47% making it the single biggest part of the population, the least able to support the cost of running the city. the study says most of the haloing out of the middle class occurred before the year 2000 and before the great recession. ali dug deeper into the report with larry icall the project director for pew's philadelphia program. listen. >> one of the fascinating things we found was in 1970, 44% of people we considered middle class did not have a high school degree because there were the blue collar jobs available. that's not the case now. you need a

many of the people on the church pews were on the streets the night before because there were not adequate space for them in the shelters. also having nowhere to go during the day at a time when the shelters are closed. any given time during the weekdays, anywhere between 40 and 90 people resting in the pews of saint bonafice. you might imagine opening our doors to so many people takes a heavy toll on the building. we also provide one of the building to the [speaker not understood] academy, a private catholic school which serves 4 through 8 grade students with families in the tenderloin area. because parents only pay $50 per month, tuition is covered by scholarships. [speaker not understood] and advance to sacred heart cathedral high school. approximately 80% of them go on to college. for students in the tenderloin, that is an incredible statistic. the majority of the people is the [speaker not understood] serves are very poor. many work two or three jobs just to cover the high cost of rent and to feed their families. our parishioners are multi-cultural. because of their high level of pove

i work at the pew research center. that's what we do, we do a lot of public point survey, a lot of demographers, social scientists and economists, and we look at trends, again, political, social, economic, and we look at them through lots of lenses, but over the decade i've been working there, looking at them through the generational lens is fashion nateing. we're in an era where the generation gap seems unusually large. america is a very dynamic society and always have younger adults who see the world different through from their parents and gpss. in this particular moment these gaps across all of mentions we're interested in, have gotten very wide. the largest of those gaps is racial and ethnic. we are now 40 or 50 years into the third great immigration wave in our done riz history. i began in the mid-60s when we opened the borders, and we closed the borders in 1920 in reaction to a big immigration wave. but we were ready to open them up again. what is distinct about the modern immigration, in absolute numbers, more

i am nervousry sitting in a pew in st. patrick's cathedral in new york where cardinal conners is about to celebrate mass. it has been years since i celebrated mass and longer since i took communion. i remember the ah i felt as an an altar boy, and later the anger when the church betrayed me. it's bitterly cold. a near record low. parishioners holing hymnals in gloved hands. the mood in the church is tense, nothing like the droning boredom of the masses of my youth. as the minutes pass i think of the jesuits who said a good catholic acts on the social teachings if that means confronting the church. outside st. patrick's, 4500 angry men and women have assembled. packing fifth avenue and chanting, with placards. curb your -- act up, the a.i.d.s. coalition is protesting o'connor's assault on safe sex and reproductive rights. there's an almost carnival like feeling in the protests. high camp and high serious news are capacity -- compatible. an artist dressed as jesus christ in a white shroud, carrying a wooden cross over his sh

i want to look down at a few other numbers from this pew poll.e francis, 84% favorable twitter mentions. 30% for benedict, 40% of catholics are playing more. 68% say he's making a major change for the better in the church. politicians would kill for those numbers. why the excitement? >> he's the most successful non-political politician that there is in the world. that excitement is because he has brought a fresh air to the catholic church. and i think people like me who were disengaged, disenfranchised and disappointed with the hierarchy and the structures of the church, but we still believed in god, now have a voice draws us back. >> but what gave you the voice? why is it so different? >> he's focusing on the people, what the church should focus on. serving the poor and the needy. he's been inclusive, not exclusive. he's not being judgmental. asking people to be a part of the church family and he's leading by example. he's talking about income inequality, yes, but he's gotten rid of the throne and lives in humility. so he talks the talk and walk

i work at the pew research center. we do a lot of public opinion survey and they have a lot of demographers and political scientists and other social scientists and economists and we sort of look at trends again political social economic and we look at them through lots of lenses but over the decade that i've been working there looking at them through the generational lens is quite fascinating because we are in an era where the generation gaps seem unusually large. america has always had this generational gaps because america is a dynamic society and we always have younger adults doing differently than their parents or grandparents did in this particular moment these gaps across all dimensions that we are ingested in have gotten very wide. the largest of those gaps is racial and ethnic. we are now 40 or 50 years into the third immigration wave in our countries history. it began in the mid-60's from a pass legislation to open the borders having closed their borders back in the 1920s in reaction to the previous immigrati

according to a survey by pew research, only 12% said he wasn't offering enough support.a's public statements make any ditches? >> it's been trickier depending on the country, staying on the right side of history is tricky business. so if history is defined as taou knee that, united states is on the right side. that puts the united states on the wrong side in bahrain. >> in terms of air strikes into libya in march 2011, pew research found the country said it was the right decision. when it came syria, most americans didn't think he should be the one to authorize air strikes. what should he do about ukraine? maybe the american people have the answer. last december pew research thought the united states should mind their own business on the world stage. >>> in october, the bbc ran a series called "100 woman." it brought people together in hopes they could inspire one another. this is the story of a textile magnate from bangladesh. and a girl who grew up with dreams of becoming a fashion designer. >> she grew up in the garbage dump but she has a dream. a dream the become a f

pew avoided that issue. if the same question were asked today of millennials, do you think 62% would say debt the biggest national security threat, really? >> i do, stuart, because this is something that millennials understand. a news story came out a few weeks ago that millennials are the most fiscally responsible generation. look at their student loan debt. the average millennial carrying around $27,000 worth of debt. that's a lot. that's a message tear living in their daily life. stuart: okay. issue number two from the pew poll, obamacare. >> yes. that's the winning issue. only 40% of by eleven y'alls support obamacare at the moment, and that's only going to get worse because skyrocketing premiums, my eleven y'alls are facing, especially those who do have a job, we've already heard kathleen sebelius say premiums are going to go up in 2015, so that number's just going to get worse. obamacare has failed you is a winning message. stuart: here's the last one, and this has always been, to me, the big deal for

joining me now is the president of the pew research center, alan murr murray. thanks for coming on. >> great to be here. >> were you surprised as i was that so many people were satisfied with the coverage and only one third thought -- >> no, i wasn't surprised at all because i know your folks here at cnn are looking at the ratings every day, they're giving people what they want. that's the nature of the media world we live in. consumers have lots of choices. so they can choose to consume the news they want to choose. editors don't get to decide anymore what people consume. people are choosing for themselves. >> i hope editors still have some role. but you're saying they have less role. >> they have less of a role in this world than they did three decades ago. >> this poll, by the way, was march 20th or 23rd. so it may well have changed in the week since. >> i have to say watching the news i said, well, wait a minute, you've got putin going into crimea, you have the whole ukraine story, this is a big, big deal, shouldn't we be spending more time on that. but tha

with my heart pounding, i walk back to my pew. my mind is fixed on bodies but not the body of christ. i think of michaels' body and the agonizing brain infection that turned his last days into a kind of crucifixion. i think of the bodies of the protesters carried out on stretchers and the bodies of those chanting outside, many struggling to survive. i think of my own body, wondering how much longer it will last. parishioners are staring at me. their faces disgusted or sympathetic or just plain stunned. some have their heads bowed, hands pressed tightly in prayer like the devout at st. mary's, their faith unshakable and unwilling to brook any criticism of the church. they might be praying for us. after mass i pass through the cathedral's heavy doors into the bright sunlight, and it seems to me into the arms of my true community. i am exalted, in a state that feels like grace, certain that if i am to die of aids, i will die as a fighter, not a victim. [applause] i'd like to read that part -- i like to read that part of the book part

meanwhile, pew research found interesting stuff on twitter. they analyze tweets about both pope francis and pope benedict when he was still pontiff. 84% of france's tweets were positived, compared to 30% of benedict tweets. francis certainly made an impression, getting comparisons to superman. his critiques of capitalism left many fuming. they wonder if he is treated too much like a celebrity. the idea that this popular pope has attracted more people to the click church. pew research found there isn't really any evidence of this among americans. however, a quarter of people already in the church say they have become more excited by their faith in the past year. >>> let me give you the latest on the missing malaysian airliner. in the words of the transportation minister, the plane has vanished. malaysia saying satellite images showing debris in the south china sea did not show debris. they were released by mistake by china. malaysia dismissed reports that the plane carried on flying up to four hours after it lost contact with conventional radar

where do you fall in this pew research center report? the report notes that there are about 69% of americans that are highly engaged with their libraries. 10% of the west population ranked as library lovers, nine percent of the population as prejudicial lists. for those that have never used a public library, 10% of those are distant admirers. those who don't use it but see it as unimportant institution -- as an important institution. we want to run through a few more headlines this morning before we and the segment. the front page of the business and finance section of today's wall street journal. gm regulators facing pressure on recall decision. transportation secretary anthony called for a review of whether safety regulators acted quickly enough on complaints of potentially deadly defects in certain general motors cars that were recalled years later over ignition switch problems. the move comes ahead of congressional hearings scheduled to begin on april 1 at which time the automaker and the national highway traffic safety administratio

so you asked, as pew did, should the country be governed, 70% say yes, higher than most arab countriess happened to that 51% of the country that voted for morsi, believes in this state. other polling data suggests, they are in jail or oppressed. how do young liberals -- young people feel about that? they now have an army regime in place that is suppressing freedom of speech, that is oppressing a large part of the population that voted for the muslim procedure. >> they saw as they went through muslim brokered, suppression of freedom of speech and attack on human rights. >> despair that both sides seem -- you're caught between a rock and a hard place. >> we're stuck between this binary, do we need a religious leadership coming to clean and purify or is it a military man that uses strength, look to the pharaoh we've had for 5,000 years. i think what this revolution was about was creating a space for the alternative. i think we're still going along that struggle. >> an interesting test for egypted level of openness and political future will be quite simply will they allow this film to be s

host: one of those challenges being highlighted by the pew research center. they have done a poll on millennials and asking questions about it. one of the things they said is people who consider themselves independent, millenials weighing in at 50%. guest: in terms of party brand, obviously the republican party brand is not fair to well with young people. democrats do not do too much better with young people. party id for them is down. increasing amounts of millennials disagree with the president and his job approval. so what we are seeing is moving away from democrats and moving to the independent column, which for we as republicans, we think that is an opportunity for us to go in and capture millennials and capture their desire to have an alternative in politics. host: how do you appeal to them? guest: we go where there are and we give them something to share. in the past, we have not focused on young people. our get out the vote strategies, messaging strategies have not targeted young people. when we are able to target a message clearly and directly to the

so you ask the poll as pew did, should your government be governed by shariah law?happened to that 51% of the country that voted for morsi that believes in this stuff. clearly other polling data suggests these guys do. because they're in jail or they're being owe prosed and how do your young liberals -- not liberals, young people like ahmad feel like that. they now have an army regime in place that is suppressing freedom of speech, that is oppressing the large part of the population that voted for the muslim brotherhood. >> well they also saw as they went through the muslim brotherhood the suppression of freedom of speech and the attack on human rights. >> does that make them despair, though, that both sides seem -- you're caught between a rock and a hard place. >> we're stuck between this bine narey that's existed for a long time. do we need a religious leadership that's going to come in and clean and purify the government or is it going to be a military man that comes in that uses strength and is our strong man that we look to, the pharaoh we've had for 5,000 year

i work at the pew research center and that is what we do. a lot of public opinion research. demographers, political scientist, economist. and we sort of look at trends. again, political, social, economic. we look at it through these lenses. over the decade looking at this is quite fascinating. because we are in an era where the generation gap seems unusually large. american a people have always had a dynamic society and we always have younger adult who see this differently than their grandparents and parents. when the particular moment occurs in these gaps across all dimensions that have gotten very large, the largest of those gaps is racial and ethnic and we are now 40 or 50 years into the third grade immigration wave in our countries history. it began in the 60s when we passed legislation to open the borders, having close the borders back in the 1920s in reaction to the previous immigration wave in the border state closer world wars and depressions et cetera. but what is distinctive about this is absolute numbers, more immigrants than the two previous waves put together. a

pew found benghazi was named the most negative thing from senator clinton's career, cited by 15% of thoseolled. 18% found nothing negative about her career. today, hillary clinton's first extensive comments on the crew crane crisis are causing a stir at a private fund-raiser in calf. last night, she reportedly made comparisons between putin and adolf hitler. what's that rule that says there's only a certain amount of time in every conversation before that happens? she was quoted as saying the following. if this sounds familiar, it's what hitler did back in the '30s. all the germans who were the ethic germans, the germans by ancestry in places like czechoslovakia and romania and other places, hitler said they're not treated right. i must go and protect my people. that's what's gotten everybody so nervous. joining me in the studio is mark halpern, coauthor of the book "the game change" and "double down" and msnbc political analyst, and we're joined by msnbc political analyst howard fineman. two political experts on this beat a lot. thank you for being here. happy to have you. what do you ma

catholics in the pews have been planting for years.efore this pope we were going through a bit of a drought. it's an exciting time. to respond to cardinal dolan, tone is really important here, and we're seeing the tonal shift impact policies, maybe not church policy, but political and other policies across the world. >> well, e.j., you wrote about this, and your description was he has not altered church doctrine, but shift in emphasis has been breathtaking. really, you think it's been breathtaking? >> i do think it is. first of all, did you ever expect to begin this show as you did today by saying one was making the papacy cool? cool is not a term you usually associate with the papacy. >> not maybe since pope john paul went hiking in the rockies. it's been a long time. >> all the way back to pope john xxiii when i was a kid. i think one of the things he's made cool is simplicity. the name francis, he's gotten rid of a lot of the regalacy. there were jokes that the lacy tunics are not on sale on steep discounts on ebay, because he has s

. >> reporter: according to a new pew poll, 85% of catholics view him favorably. 71% see major change kind of a rock star. "time's" person of the year. the cover of "rolling stone." now there's even a francis fan zene. >> he has become a celebrity. and he's clearly uncomfortable with that, to some degree. >> reporter: this week francis told an italian newspaper he's neither a star nor superman. the pope, he said, is a man who laughs, cries, sleeps soundly and has friends, just like everyone else. a normal person. of course that humility is partly what people respond to. his modest apartment. old jalopy. and message to church officials who have been steeped in luxury, live simply. do for others. champion the poor. >> he's not asking us to change the teachings of our church, but he is saying, let's not get so pigeon-holed. line on contraception and abortion. when asked about gay priests, he famously said, who am i to judge? the church vehemently opposes gay marriage but just this week francis signaled an openness to the idea of civil unions. >> i'm a gay man. so i never felt like i had

the pew study shows 39% of americans say they're conservative, 37% say they're moderate. when you ask them on the issues what they believe. they're fairly conservative. only 23% of americans say they're liberal. that's a very small number. you have most of the major media networks fighting over that small market share. >> speaking of fox, we talked about what you like about fox. what do you not like about fox? what do you dislike or think could be improved on? >> well, i think fox by its over admission has changed programming and is trying to get back to its original mission of being fair and balanced. i think the last election people saw it as very, very polarizing. if you look back at 1996 when fox started, pew says the republican party had a favorability rating of 65%. today, i believe the republican party is fighting for its survival and its favorability rating is 35%. obama has around a 50% favorable rating, the republicans in congress have an unfavorable rating of around 80%. so during these years that fox has dominated sort of the republican side of the news equati

in the heart of new york, the disciples that line the pews are as diverse as the city, and their views on president obama reflect that diversity. >> the bible tells us men shall not lie with men. he is for same-sex marriages. >> i know i am outside the mainstream of doctrine, but i certainly support gay marriage, and i support a woman's right to .hoose >> in a country where the separation of church and state sacred, the catholic hierarchy says religious freedom is under assault because of obama's policies. still, it's unlikely to be a topic at the meeting between obama and the pope. >> the core values of the church are really the gospel, mercy, love, compassion, and i think the pope is trying to remind us we can be focused on certain be focusede can not on certain issues to the exclusion of the others. >> it's places like this where the main concern of the catholic church is alleviating poverty, so president obama's economic policies would seemingly make him a natural ally. here at the jesuit middle school is saint ignatius, underprivileged students are taught that education is their w
