so the fate of the 115 men women and children who landed on roanoke island was for centuries worth of investigation to have loads of drama at the desk one --dash desperately seeking his daughter and granddaughter the shipwrecks and hurricane and that is set against a clash of two european powers to create much of the world as we know it today. but the story of roanoke is something more, this country's creation story of founding medicine as we peel back the layers i found it had more to say but i did not start there. when i heard those two teams of archaeologists were competing to solve the mystery i figured it would be quick how long -- to help pay for my vacation but when i discovered was a group of people who were every bit as fascinating as the english native americans who are key figures and to a person with this quest so what gave this historical event such power? so the arc.long -- archaeologists were excavating and i began to dig for other clues. for example the very term lost colony was an invention of the h century. all of a sudden it was tied up fears and anxiety are these o

and the same is true in roanoke where the pull is from about ten counties in roanoke.eply red except for metro roanoke, which tends to be democratic. i don't think he'll be successful. >> one of the other issues that's brought up by paul manafort's attorneys is the publicity in the case adversely affecting his client. none probably more high profile an the president of the united states who had a lot to say and a lot to say on twitter about paul manafort. here's one tweet. didn't know manafort was the head of the mob, et cetera. the idea that the president's tweets and that kind of publicity could adversely affect the trial, didn't we just have a supreme court litigated case in which they said nothing donald trump tweets matters? >> you know, they said it -- legally, i think what comes into play here is manafort's motion is very cavalier in terms of its willingness to believe xis are follow the instructions they're given by judges and aside their personal believes. and i'm going to tell you after 25 years of trying cases in courts that juries do that remarkably well. a

we have a map here of alexandria and roanoke, virginia. there we go.pril just by coincidence, the potential pool of jurors in alexandria went clinton by roughly 70/30. whereas in roanoke, they went for trump by nearly the reverse, something like 68/32. is that common to try to move the trial to a more politically flavorable climate? >> i'm sure it's what every defendant who believes politics would help him or her would like to do. but typically these transfers are authorized under the federal rules only in cases where there would be such extreme prejudice to a defendant that he or should could not get a fair trial if they remained in place. you think of these big high-profile cases like the oklahoma city bombing which was moved from oklahoma city to denver. because of pretrial publicity. that's where these sorts of transfers usually take place. >> yes so in this case, do you think that's likely, that it's likely to succeed? >> i think that this motion has a very slender chance of success. one factor here is it's not just the cities that we should be lo
