and, of course, next to rahm emanuel, from chicago. thanthank you all so much for joining us. first superintendent, you're facing a lot of challenges right now. and so one of the big issues we want to know is how you're doing with this latest challenge. trying to get the teachers union to abolish the for your time limit on disciplinary files after everything that you've been experiencing. we all know there has been charges filed and a whole community terribly involved. so bring us the latest on the. >> ashore. the thing about los angeles and why i think is so amazingly important. l.a. is a miracle. what happened in austin matters enormously for this country. the transformation reform we're putting in place that are anchored on these three big bets of human capital who we hire, who we are, who we promote, keep in place, retain and compensate. public school choice. high quality choice, every single pair. and a third piece is how you system. those were brought to bear in how we dealt with a situation. it is the problematic that there are laws in california that make it ridiculous

rahm emanuel, the former chief of staff, basically lobbied the white house to bring these twin events to chicago. there was no buy-in from any constituency group other than the people who were involved in the tourism industry hoping that this would be a boom, and it would. it is an international showcase for this city, but the concern immediately turned to the thousands of protesters expected in the city, the security costs and the closures of the business in the loop and surrounds areas to accommodate the summit. the g-8 economic summit, steve, is usually the one that draws most of the protesters. so we don't know yet what this will mean in terms of outsiders coming, some of the protest groups have said they're coming anyway. >> it's interesting, too, that the president is not one to often go to camp david, unlike president george h.w. bush and president clinton were frequent visitors. in part because of malia and sasha's schedules they rarely go to camp david. >> it was interesting. when i asked for the reasoning why the switch, what did he know now he didn't know when he made plans

myself as an angry black woman and she also protested portrayal of her fighting directly with rahm emanuel, so that was kind of fascinating to me because the book definitely does not portray her in any stereotypical way and i'm very clear to mention of the clashes between her and rahm emanuel maybe i shouldn't undercut my own reporting and talk about their differences in the approach to political life that's what they were. she did acknowledge she didn't read the book so we have to imagine that she is responding maybe to the coverage of the book instead of the book itself. part of the reason i'm excited to be here tonight is to talk about the actual thing with you and with all of you. >> let's go to that political scene because that is one of the themes in the book. when theodore roosevelt went to politics everyone around him said you don't want to do politics that is beneath people like us. what is it about the politics? >> part of the reason i think the qualms are important and not to be dismissed is there similar to the qualms a lot of us have about politics. we all see what is wrong wi

officials but the one interesting thing to note the organizer says that he wants to challenge rahm emanuel to a debate as to why he offered to bring the nato summit to chicago without discussing this or bringing this up with the people here in the city there challenging the mayor to a debate as you may have heard, there is a very real possibility that starting tomorrow, if you're a direct tv customer, you may not be able to watch the wgn midday news, wgn-tv, wgn america or any tribune programming. wgn parent tribune broadcasting, says in a statement that direct tv is refusing to offer a fair deal and the sides remain far apart in negotiations. direct tv issued a statement saying they have no problem compensating tribune fairly and believe tribune's programming is important to the public. for more information and links go to our website, wgn tv dot com... and wgn america dot com for our national viewers. and if youre a directv customer and would like updates on the situation, text the word 'direct' to 97999 and well keep you in the loop.' still ahead in the medical watch the colorful coffee

former president clinton actor tom hanks and former white house chief of staff encourage mayor rahm emanuel. >> many want to do what mitt romney did, let it go? can't be saved. can't put good money after bad. >> romney never writes the detroit can't be saved like emanuel says. he said a turnaround not a check and a managed bankruptcy may be the only path to fund am tal restructuring the industry needs. it would permit the companies to shed excess labor, pension and real estate costs and in a managed bankruptcy he writes the federal government would compel newly competitive and viable auto makers rather than seal their fate with a bailout check. the road we traveled is about the president's first term so far from the president's perspective. it's on youtube right now. >>> now it's time to take a look at who is talking. the white house isn't saying the president is in full reelection mode but he sure sounds like it. he's in the middle of a war of words from potential republican rivals. he is sarcastic about those he says are not doing enough. >> do not tell me we are not drilling chth we are
