so that's how i think intuit. >> david preston. >> yes. my first book dealt with the uruguayan people in the colonial era. the book very much come out of that project. i gained first of all a healthy respect for the significance of braddock's but i became very intrigued by this set of characters who are at braddock's defeat of 17th at five also went on to significant careers during the american revolution. obviously, george washington first and foremost but also a ratio gates, the victor at saratoga, daniel morgan the victor, charles lee, and also thomas gage, the future commander-in-chief of the british army. the project first began as for a kind of elected biography that would tell the story of the french and indian war and its connection to the american revolution through the lives of these individuals. however as i started to research the book including here at the new york historical society i came to see that there was still so much to be told about the story of braddock's defeat and the decisions of all of the different players, the

matthew weinsheimer and preston beatty, if greater's from eastern middle school want presidential candidateso discuss criminal justice reform and their video is titled "the american criminal justice system: are we doing it right? " different american adults of different economic, ethnic, political, religious, and racial backgrounds. people is currently in jail. one of the most stunning effects about the u.s. incarceration system is that while u.s. citizens account for just 5% of the world's population, u.s. incarcerated citizens represent 25% of the world incarcerated population. 40% of the incarcerated individuals are serving time for drug-related rides very mandatory minimums, a mandatory sentence where judicial discussion are limited by law are a highly controversial part of the judicial system. it convicted individual and no ability for a judge to give individual ruling. reform of the criminal justice system and mandatory minimum in particular is the toughest debate all the little has been done by the presidential candidates to address this issue. eric holder, former attorney theral is a

mark preston. >> i don't think so. this is the situation we're in right now. >> that's all he's doing. >> donald trump is very upset because by and large he's winning the popular vote amongst republicans, and he's going to get denied because his team didn't play by the rules. ted cruz has built an operation that has put him in a position to take this to a contested convention. you're also going to have problem when we get to cleveland where there are going to be angry people. there's going to be potential violence in the streets. the fact of the matter is -- >> both of them knew going in what the rules were. it's an old game. when the rules don't work for you, attack the rules. this is not clever, but it is expected because it's maybe his best shot to sort of discredit what the republican establishment is really planning and that is an effort at the convention to take the nomination away from him. >> donald trump is freaking out because he's on a major losing streak heading into new york. if he doesn't get over 50% in

i want to go to mark preston going through the exit polls in new york and mark, you got new informationrepublicans who voted today and what can you tell us? >> erin, there is a lot made about the new york republican electret, what kind of strain of republican or conservative are they? let's look at the numbers here. 50% of new york republicans describe themselves as somewhat conservative, another 30% if you take those two numbers together describe themselves as moderate or liberal and if you look at that number there, 21% describe themselves as very conservative but let's dig deeper into a very important subset in other states. the white e van gel -- evangelical vote. donald trump has done well with white evangelicals in other primaries and caucuses over the past couple months but certainly his strength lies with the more moderate voters. let's jump ahead to next week depending how he does tonight could be telling how he could play in five states voting including delaware, pennsylvania, rhode island, connecticut among others there, erin. >> mark preston. thank you. new data important as

preston and valentina. at the time he passed away, he had the largest shire horse breeding operation west of the mississippi. there were no buyers for the horses after he died. some of them were sold to other breeders, but most of the rest off and the breeding did not continue. the last bixby to live here at the ranch was fred bixby's wife, who passed away in 1961. their children, four of them, got together and talked about it and they decided that this should become a historic site, available to all the people of california. generations before, even susan bixby had the sense of the history of this place and when she was making repairs and additions, it was with the history of the place in mind. even 100 years before it was donated to the city of long beach, there was a sense of the history. beach, the of long transfer was made in 1968. the family donated seven and a half acres to the city. all the buildings, the contents of those buildings. furnishings that you see inside the ranch house are original to th

great to see you, mark preston. >> great to see you. >> we're going to play a game.s one of our favorite games on voting games, it's called it's already tomorrow morning. it is tomorrow morning alex burns. what is the surprise headline from "the new york times"? >> i think if there's any surprise i think it's possibly just the scale of trump's victory. i think we're more likely to see a new york-like scenario emerge. if he scores really big in some of the states that are not winner-take-all but winner-take-most like connecticut and maryland, he could really extend his delegate lead very substantial if cruz and kasich continue to split the anti-trump vote down the middle. >> david gregory, the other side. it's already tomorrow morning. bernie sanders wakes up feeling -- >> like he's got almost no path left. i mean, i think the more we move forward, the bigger her wins, even if she doesn't win everything today and tonight, the reality is that he just doesn't have the ground to make up. so he doesn't have time on the calendar even if he scores some later victories. the

and as mark preston noted just a minute ago. we're down to 15 remaining states, 5 going tomorrow. what's really interesting about that in my mind at least is when you look back on the last several cycles, mitt romney was the presumptive nominee on april 24th, four years ago, john mccain in march of 2008. we're actually seeing states and voters that have probably never participated for real in the primary system having a real impact in who our nominee is going to be, and that's a really positive thing when you think about the number of people in states that are participating in this process. >> sean spicer, you just admitted on national tv that you have the never seen anything like this before, not in recent memory. donald trump calls it an act of collusion. he says it's a horrible act of desperation. your reaction to his comments? >> well, as you guys know, this isn't the first time i have said this before, but the rnc's job is to be sort of the fair arbiter of this process to make sure all the candidates have a process by which to play by as we head into cleveland. i'm not going

also with us is cnn politics executive editor mark preston. first to you, if you can weigh in on this very significant shift for republicans dealing with donald trump and things he has said before that don't necessarily fit in with republican platform ideas. this certainly would not. >> right. but i think we have to take a step back. we are at a time right now in what lgbt activists will say is their civil rights moment. two years ago i sat down with pro gay rights marriage advocates who thought they had no hope of being able to get married across the country at least for another five or ten years. now donald trump who prior to running for republican nomination really had more centrist views on it i'm not surprised he made this statement today. we are entering into a new phase of the campaign clearly donald trump is looking at the general election. one thing we haven't seen in this campaign certainly in the republican primary is a lot of discussion on social conservative views. that has not come up at all. they have pretty much been on the sam

next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, supervisors dean preston district 5 a parent of school-aged children and tenant advocate and thank you supervisor campos for offering this legislation and to the co-sponsoring to supervisor mar for planting the seeds in 2010 hopefully, the board will expand upon i hope we can come together on that i think everyone recognized the crisis in teacher housing as well as single-family homes sf in san francisco we need to ask ourselves wharf of a city if we can't house our families and can't house our educators while we'll built plans for the affordable housing for educators in the future we need to protect those findings who are affordablely housed doing everything we can as supervisor campos legislation does to protect educators from evictions i want to echo something depa said the enormous amount of stress eviction folks are under and the amount of centers the families and educators are already under even without an eviction so far educators would low salaries to struggle to afford the city and hard work of taking care of and educating our youth a

bill preston, bakari sellers, sanders and clinton supporters, respectively.king, gloria borger kayleigh mcanainny, mary katharine ham, and donna brazile. clearly, just little exit polls we've been seeing results does play well for donald trump. the idea of somebody outside the establishment. >> sure. that's what we've been seeing. >> time and time again. >> seeing time and time again in the exit polls. what's interesting what we're seeing in early exit polls is that these seem to be less conservative and less angry republicans as well. we saw angry republicans more so in the south in the early polling now less conservative in the state of new york, as you might also think. one other thing's interesting to me, we look at these early numbers, just like in the state of wisconsin, about 3/4 of the people here believe that if you're really ahead, heading into the convention, you probably ought to get the nomination. some we'll be talking about a lot, i think, in the weeks ahead. >> in sports, play on your home field. the fact that when you get that home-field adva

john travolta brought wife kelly preston out to celebrate the episode that fans and critics are dyingo see. >> that's the highest critical acclaim i have ever gotten. i would say really? >> plus, shocker, there's one person not watching the playing oj. >> no, no, i don't watch it. i have to step away from this. >> this scene had viewers go crazy on twitter. was really a relationship between the members of oj's prosecution team. >> i have my memories about what i thought was happening there. >> we talked about it in our book, i think it's just the agreement they came up with between the two of them. >> we never had any confirmation from either one of them. so we were not going to g i to the audience as if it were a fact. >> that's good. i'm o with it. >> tina fey was fan girling all over the cast. >> it's so goo i need to fill out my paper work for the emmys so i can vote for sterling and john travolta. >> unbreakable k schmidt, "snl's" seth meyers new baby. >> i came in and i sent a present. >> tina fey, speaking of fan girling, i'm fan girling over some of my favorite actresses and b

mark preston, you've been looking carefully at the numbers.re a big crowd in indianapolis. ted cruz is trying to find some sort of way to stop trump's momentum. even if trump were to lose in indiana, there is still a clear path for him to reach 1,237. he's got more than 400 delegates ahead of cruz right now. >> wolf, i've been looking at the remaining ten states and different scenarios. donald trump needs to one 246 of the remaining 502 delegates. even if ted cruz were to do well in indiana you expect that donald trump is going to pick up some delegates but just goes to show you what the cruz campaign is thinking. they will be there this weekend. ted cruz and carly fiorina will be in the state of california. that is the big state with the most delegates left on the table. and they know that not only do they have to stop donald trump in indiana, but they really have to hurt him when it comes to california. also worth noting is new jersey, a state, of course, that is right next to neighboring new york, is also going to hold a contest. 51 delegat

the politics executive editor is mark preston.ere's what's so fascinating about the breakdown. 17, i think we can fairly say trump is polling so incredibly well in pennsylvania and probably pick those ones up. fair? >> fair. >> the next part is weird. you have all of these districts, 18 different districts with 3 delegates a piece and they all have pledged to themselves and running like candidates. and cnn did a bit of the math about how they operate. and it's kind of fascinating. let me just read for you and it's tricky so follow along. and what cnn found out when they interviewed these people. more than 125 of them who spoke with cnn, 20% of them said they will back trump. while another 33% said they're going to back their congressional district's winner. that's popular winner. whoever gets the popular vote there and that's good news for trump because he's poised to win the popular vote by a heavy margin and 60% said they would support ted cruz and 10% said don't ask me. i won't talk until the convention but none of the candidat

let's get to mark preston and phil mattingingly. phil, you're at the kasich event.in a couple minutes, governor kasich expected to come out and lay out two pathways. he's never going to mention trump or cruz by name but he'll show a contrast fween his vision and theirs, calling theirs a path to darkness and going through a list of their policy prescriptions we've seen over the last couple of months and taking them apart one by one. this is a big moment for kasich. we know where he stands and he has a long road to climb and can only climb it in an open convention. aides have been pushing kasich to make this speech for a number of months. they believe he's a candidate that appeals to the broader electorate and the broader republican party. he just needs that moment. that's what they'll be shooting for in this speech today. >> the question is will the moment come in the state of new york. because a new poll came out. if my executive producer can remind me where the poll came from? baruch college, and it said that trump has now broken 60% support in the state of new yor

. >> with me now, mark preston, errol lewis, tara sat meyer, jeff, let's start with you. the cruz, kasich alliance. trump calling pathetic, desperate. is the campaign worried this will hurt them? these candidates aren't calling on supporters. they aren't saying their supporters don't vote for me. >> i don't think they are. i think this is a last minute thing. a hail mary as it were. it is not going to be effective, to some degree may back fire on senator cruz. i don't think it will have any effect on governor kasich whatsoever. i think the more interesting thing more interesting thing going on, 54 delegates running in pennsylvania's congressional districts are going to win. your name is on there as your name. you have to find out that's more interesting and more problem for the campaign than this. >> mark preston, you heard that interview with john kasich earlier. what did you make of it. i asked him point blank, are you telling supporters in indiana to vote for you, and he wouldn't answer. in the clip, said i am not telling people not to vote. >> and critical of it all d

cnn's mark preston is here. all-around good guy. also cnn political commentators margaret hoover and bob beck ol and kelly ann conway, president of the keep promise one, whew, that's a long name, super pac supporting ted cruz. and joining me also is congressman charlie dent, a john kasich supporter. and you're going to have to really yell when you want to get in because i can guarantee you this is going to be a really raucous group. i'm going to start with you, margaret. how do you think john kasich dp tonight? >> he did great. who didn't like this idea of seeing his family and his daughters? it was a really intimate look at who he is as a man, as a father, as a husband. and that's what you want to see in all these political candidates. i think in other years that tends to be a little more important. you want to be able to have a beer with the guy you're going to vote for. this year not so much. this year because of the anger, because of the economic situation i think you have a little bit different sentiment in the electorate. but

john travolta brt oughwife kelly preston out to celebrate the next tusz's finale that many fans and criticsg to see. >> today's the day. >> they told me years ago is the highest critical acclaim i have ever gotten was playing an aging lawyer i wouldable have believed it. i would say really? >> plus, shocker, there's one person not watching the guy playing oj. >> no, no, i don't watch it. i have to step away from this. >> this scene had viewers going crazy on twitter. was there really a relationship between the members of oj's prug prosecution tea i thought was happening there. >> we talked about it in our book, i think it's just the agreement they came up with between the two of them. >> we never had any confirmation from either one of them. so if we did have any concrete proof, we were not going to give it t the audience as concrete fact. >> that's good. i'm obsessed with it. >> tina fey was fan girling all over the cast. >> it's so good. i need to fill out my paper work for the emmys so i can vote for sterling and john travolta. >> as last night's premier for her show, kim my smith was ex

mark preston is back with me, executive editor for politics.trump had a 73% unfavorable rating in our early cnn poll. didn't need to go there last night. went there. >> probably 83% right now. the fact he would say something like -- a perfect example of donald trump right now, having this internal struggle about saying what's on his mind and thinking he can get away with saying what's on his mind and acting presidential. just think, if donald trump did not say these flippant comments all of the time, what would we be thinking about donald trump, and certainly what would voters who are turned off by donald trump right now be thinking about him. >> last night he could have talked about ted cruz and talk about how he beat him from 50 plus percent. >>> breaking news, bernie sanders laying off hundreds of staffers. we have a live report. er ] love? don't be a yes man.

let's go to our cnn politics editor mark preston.know the exact number right now, but it does look like donald trump is having a dominate evening. why? what were the republican voters looking for? >> let's look at the quality right now. quality is that new york republicans were looking for specifically. the number one quality was a candidate who could bring about change and if you look at the numbers donald trump wins that. 68% of the voters went for donald trump, john kasich barely gets two and ten of those voters and ted cruz down there at 13 percent. as we told you earlier this evening, six in ten republicans wanted an outsider as their nominee. donald trump overwhelming wins those voters. 85%. ted cruz only picks up 9% and john kasich picks up 6%. perhaps the most important quality though is heading into november is who can defeat hillary clinton, donald trump at 56%. it really does give us the reasons why donald trump easily won his home state of new york tonight. >> very interesting. thanks. that's interesting also about the nu

to bring in cnn's chief political correspondent dana bash, and cnn politics executive editor mark preston. why are you smiling? we're like the circus has already come to town. politics this season is crazy. >> no more elephants in the circus, though. >> dana, since you're out on the campaign trail, i want to ask you this. this idea of teaming up to stop trump, people find it a little odd, a little more than a month ago you told us the kasich team was pushing for an alliance. they even got mitt romney to make a call. but then cruz didn't have any time for it. he couldn't be bothered. what changed since then? >> not just that he couldn't be bothered, don. more importantly, his campaign team thought it was a crazy idea because at the time, let's say a week ago, they thought that -- and they actually rightfully did still have a mathematical path to the nomination before the convention. that no longer exists, thanks in large part to the fact that right where you are in new york, ted cruz got zero delegates last tuesday. so new it is time for ted cruz to try to be more strategic, and that is wh

also nia mallika henderson and editor mark preston. great to have you all on today. so we've now learned from our sources, nia, that the main focus of that meeting, as i said, was on math, delegate math. do you think this attention on the delegate process could be a sign that trump is worried? >> well, you know, you talked to his people and i was on the phone with a trump senior adviser about an hour ago, and they don't seem worried, they actually feel confident that trump will get the 1,239, even more than 1,239 is what this particular official said, and of course that is what campaigns do, they're supposed to project that kind of confidence. if you look at where he is now at 739, he essentially has about 500 more to go. if you look at april, there are about 400 delegates, some of those are winner take all, but the overwhelming majority are proportional. then you get, you know, into may and june. he will have opportunities to pick up winner take all states there. i think, though, just focus on the delegate map. does suggest the republican party, the rnc, sort of off

preston tucker expects a home run. astros go back-to-back on nathan starling castro, five rbi last night. what a start for this guy. right now the yankees are trying to finish. they were down until alex rodriguez gets his 1st base hit of the season. rbi single in the 5th to tie the game. that's where they are right now 5-5 in the 6th. >>> the mets play their long awaited home opener tomorrow afternoon against the phillies. fellas had a citifield workout today. they did what they could with the rain and the cold after opening the season in kansas city, the mets are set to play the first home game since last year's world series. they'll raise the national league pennant before the game. citifield is going to be rocking. earlier today in a private ceremony the players were given their national league championship rings. mets tweeting these pictures today. now the stage is set to play ball tomorrow. jacob degrom was at the workout. scheduled pitcher tomorrow. but his wife is due to give birth any day now. >> i'm just focus

is an example of what we will get if we let the preston -- president name next justice to the supreme court. so i think it is ever more -- the need to elect a president who makes a commitment and to honor the federal court. [inaudible] he would have to confess that the american people are right and he is wrong or veto a bill -- this is not hard to understand. and it is appalling to me that you can have justices in the supreme court that have difficulty reading and understanding the constitution and interpreting it to interpret what it says. and how with a straight face they can say all of these discussions are part of a constitutional argument. heart to think that we could have another justice that would be arguing policy when it comes to constitutional questions. how do you predict the supreme court these days? when i came to this town, i could. i understood the justices on the constitution. when they would respect advices and when they would not. i had a pretty good handle on predicting the decision. in this court, it is almost impossible to predict because you cannot go to the cons

it's in a post office in preston idaho which occurs in january of 1863. a lot of us have heard of the sand creek massacre in november of 1864. we are talking about an incident of 250 northwestern indians were slaughtered. and women were raped even as they lie dying in the snow from their wounds. what we're looking at here is racism, yes. what is going on beneath the surface. what is the significance of this? >> i think what's going on here that is of significance is this. in the context between white americans, the american civil war there was the entire point of the war really was to restore political community. and i think the more that in wars, the more that there is a sense of a common political community that has been temporarily sundayered but is going to be restored the more likely you are to have what we would think of as the laws and customs of war obeyed. but in instance where is there can be no community, no coming together, those are the kinds of circumstances under which you see atrocities. what you will find is there's a distinction in the w

mark preston and cnn analyst david gregory. so the state of play, mr. preston. when we're looking at the state right now, donald trump is pushing a vibe of being cheated. he saw colorado and new york a chance to make right. what do you think the play here is and the plus minus. >> try to act as a populist republican gained by the insiders in washington, d.c. whether you like the rules or you don't like the rules, the rules were established. the rules were set. you have to play by the rules. if you want to change the rules, go ahead and change the rules. >> david, here is the irony. this system that donald trump calls this rigged, disgusting, dirty system is actually working to his favor. notwithstanding colorado. look at the numbers. he has won 37% -- just give me a minute here. 37% of the raw vote but 43% of the delegates. it appears to be working for him. >> can i see your calculation on that? >> it's on the screen. please. donald trump sees obvious value of going after the system. we are looking daily at the ins and outs of securing delegates for the nominati
