find a certain politician and that has a serious issue we don't need a ron paul that's constantly going on and not about that well ron ron paul and gary johnson in the current political crop of the republicans i find personally attractive candidates for the most part but what we're talking about is that no you know what if you are going after politics if you're looking for political leaders sure you're losing out on what's really happening when you look at the education revolution i mean it's not because we've had like an endless succession of education presidents all they do is blow up the status quo they spend more and more money on failed policies so what you need to do is to come up with ways to create your own charter schools opt out of the current system and finally just bring it down to its knees and that's what will happen it's not and that's why the tea party is so important their focus not on one party or the other party but on reducing spending and as long as they stay focused on that and independent from either party there with their actually working to change the logic of politics that isn't. to a howard dea

ron paul. for obama and now you're voting for ron paul if ron paul wins the general election and with the primary and you're on the phone so maybe maybe those are winning issues they they are not winning issues to the general populace oh so what are you some kind of freak out that you represent of the center right i am of the center right and i represent the populists i'm a social conservative i'm very much do not stand like you have been dragged kicking and screaming into the ron paul crazy camp and i will vote for ron paul and you are a member of veterans only sorry but your points are well taken we look forward to the viewer feedback on takes forever we have a couple other issues you want to cover you were right about about obama's speech yesterday you get to do your little mainstream media tour congratulations. and you could point out that the day before you were right on target you said eight to twelve thousand within the next year and he said five in five thousand so. the indication is that were people oh yeah i would get all kinds of hate mail i he's not going to do this or he's going to d

ron claiborne. good to see you, ron. >> good morning, dan, bianna, good morning, everyone. >> syria is stepping up its brutal crackdown on anti-government protesters. thousands of syrians are fleeing to neighboring turkey this morning as troops have sealed a town near the border. 36 people reportedly killed on friday when syrian security forces opened fire during demonstrations across that country. >>> and in afghanistan, a roadside bomb hit a bus in the southern part of the country this morning. at least 16 people have been killed including 8 children. >>> and survivors of last month's massive tornado in joplin are facing a new threat, disease. some have developed a fungal infection. three people who were hospitalized with the infection has died. >>> growing jitters at the economic recovery has stalled since stocks tumbled friday. the dow closed below 12,000 for the first time since march. the benchmark has fallen now six straight weeks after peaking at nearly 13,000.

ron and gary running for the same position you're kind of splitting forces and instead of you know what i feel like where he's he's banging his head against his barrier right now that ron did in zero eight the difference is ron had this ground army all the ground army still there but they're still behind ron for the most part so gary's just kind of this well one hope that people can get behind gary johnson least get him into this debate having that platform the idea as long as he is in the presidential race he should absolutely be in the debate but what i think if i were managing his campaign or if i one of his advisors they say look you ever want a real shot at this because the system we're dealing with he needs to go back to new mexico where he was incredibly popular absolutely true. according to polls there were polls he got twenty seven percent in a poll in february i think. i think second place ok with all that which was it was a minute i want to i want to see about romney we got romney skip if he's going to be at the c.n.n. debate next week right but he's skipping iowa and florida straw polls how is that possible is he finally given up can we can we hope i don't. that's the case i mean he's still leadi

ron paul supporters here anybody who wants a demonizing group can look at what their actions are spending. billions does happen but how about this run public himself is not a truth or he is not ron paul is not a truth ron paul is not a conspiracy theorizing ron paul takes the takes barracks takes data assessment and tries to really get the truth the supporters do the same thing they're called truth there is another series of oil on the earth this there's a choice available to you that you want to bring about a choice of issues is something else go ahead with this well it depends on if you're talking about afghanistan or if you're talking about drug legalization if you want to use to a right well you always. end up in here's the difference between say like rand and ron it's already a lot of it's rhetorical but rand will talk about afghanistan from a fiscal perspective or even talk about military strategy why it's not working there now ron is special you know it you know he had more of a tent in its infancy to say this is empire were doing this nation building for empire the whole is you call that i'm with you they're appealing to your base but you've actually come out and called marijuana legalization a

to help us make sense of it, we're joined by cornell belcher and ron brownstein. ron, you wrote about this demographic shift and one of the things that struck me is that if i get it right, whites look at the situation in the country and they say minorities have too much influence. but minorities inside the system look and say we don't have enough influence. so there's some kind of a disconnect there. >> first of all, as you say, the demographic change going on in the country is one of the most profound and reshaping our politics. when barack obama was elected, nonwhites were 26%. barack obama is the first president in american history who lost white voters by double digits and actually won the white house. as we're living through this change, there are different reactions to it. >> it's perception. >> and diversity is not only deepening, it's broadening. more states are affected. minority share of the population increased in every state from 2000 to 2010. so the reactions to this, we have a quarterly poll that we do called the heart land monitor and we asked americans

politicians like ron pop sure ron paul wins a lot of polls and you can say that he has a hard core dedicated following he want another straw poll overwhelmingly in new orleans right just this past weekend in a g.o.p. conference but do you think there's something more to it that finally people are thinking you know he's not a fringe candidate because this is at least somebody who i you know who i agree with when it comes to stopping the war is because we can't afford them anymore and i think there's going back many years there's always been this much more you want to call it isolationist or just much more modest strain of republican conservative foreign policy and you have the neoconservatives who as we know have lots of grand ideas about america intervening all over the world to spread values or democracy or what have you but there is another tradition in the conservative movement that has been somewhat eclipsed by the new york cause but it's really kind of feeling about it we have now it's like it's rising right past you and me back into the mainstream right i think that's very much true it

what we're talking about is a strategy which ron bloom really is -- we talked to ron because ron is -- he's the commander and chief in the strategy asked by the president to put together a strategy so that america, like it's competitors, has a claim plan. you wouldn't think of going on the football field and just sort of making it up on the fly. you know, that's why you practice. that's why you drill. you go out, cut, you know, get the pass. people know what they are doing. we need to do that if we are going to be remain competitive. ron is the leader here. >> let me say a word and make two different. i think the future is both distinction it is important. one, as representative hoyer said with the support of his leadership and others in the country, we were able to make substantial investments in the recovery act. as he points out, other nations are not standing still. in the new budget, there is a request for continued investment. if we don't make it, we're not going to win this element. clearly few look at what our future holds, whether it's dependents on foreign oil, or whether it

so we ron paul the congressman ron paul from texas has come out and specifically said that gun owners of america is the only no compromise gun lobby in washington what does that say about the n.r.a. will he didn't say anything. there and of you know the different flows that. he. generally. if you. were within the system. he actually is in need you will get in. our view is that. you and citizen. we really accept a legitimate seal what is not legitimate gun control of the federal level is a little outside the constitution so what's to compromise on. there's nothing to fear that they have stopped so many of our liberties and it's turned we articulate and you can take him back is it any other areas of the world or thank you constitution you know for the americans for tax reform grover norquist they have the taxpayer protections place do you think you could have some version of that for politicians for firearms to make so that before anyone takes office directing the guns and violence of government that they've at least a garden once in their lifetime does president bother you that it leas

ron paul supporters in the first phase and then the second phase we're going to get those ron paul supporters to the ames straw poll to give them significant chance to win there that's really amazing how much power is in the hands of individual republicans in iowa and new hampshire because of the way the process works but we are able to organize nastily to make sure that our supporters are turned out the people who believe in freedom who believe in the constitution have their voices heard in those events and those important primary states so tell us about the website you put together to help people organize around the suffer sure it's r t two thousand and twelve dot org and several other campaign . it's a completely separate from the campaign you know the ron paul scene was known to the ron paul campaign was known in two thousand and eight as being grassroots driven and this is no different but instead of doing something say that's fundamentally frivolous you know this is actually a very concrete thing that we can do that the mainstream media cannot take away so it's going to be very difficult thing for the mainstream media to spend its way out of a win in ames because you know it's usually a very high profile event so it's r t twenty twelve or it's the same software that we used during my campaign. people are who worked on our campaign are familiar with it takes about literally about ten seconds to sign in and then all you do is even for those people who are maybe a little called reluctant little afraid to make a phone call well you have to do is just pick up the the phone dial folks just ask if they're wrong paul supporters and that's it no cell mate and they say one of those hey information to be empowered and turn out at the right plac

ron paul when ron gave some answers. i thought all the candidates really auditioned well tonight. tim pawlenty was auditioning very well as an appropriate understudy. we've got a lot more to learn about him but i think he performed very well tonight. i can't think of anyone who didn't do a good job. >> cornell belcher, the candidate you support, president obama, the man you did polling for in 2008, and i believe you'll be working for again in this race, for you, what stuck out for you tonight? >> i really want to pull back the covers and shine a light for the american viewer on the inside thinking of campaigns. i think pawlenty thing was a big deal because of this. as much as we don't like -- we say we don't like negative campaigns the truth of the matter is if someone occupies the space that you want to occupy and they're ahead of you, i'm sorry, you got to make that person -- you got to cut that person and make them bleed. do you take a hatchet to him the first night? no. but you have to make them bleed because you'll never get ahead unless you cut them and make them bleed. pawlenty was served the opportunity to make them bleed and he looked pumps. he could not back up what he said aside when he was on the stage with romney. he looked tentative and week and i think he missed a prime opportunity to make this guy bleed. >> john, you gave him that opportunity. why do you think he passed? it was on a sunday show where he came up with that term which got an enormous amount of coverage and play. he refused to repeat it tonight. >> he refused to repeat it with governor romney a little further apart than we are right now. it was a clear calculation. he wants to make that point because he believes it's critical. he's an underdog in new hampshire. he's trying to introduce himself to the new hampshire voters but in this state governor romney is pretty popular. he made a calculation the first night but not now. >> we have a lot in the hour ahead. voters watching, republican voters watching how they responded to some key moments. we'll talk to robert gibbs, former white house spokesman for president obama and in a moment we'll talk to congressman ron paul and get his thoughts about he did and the others did. let us know what you think. we're on facebook and i'll be tweeting tonight. we'll talk to ron paul coming up next. the 2nd generation of intel core processors. this is visibly smart. [ technician ] are you busy? management just sent over these new technical manuals. they need you to translate them into portuguese. by tomorrow. [ male announcer ] ducati knows it's better for xerox to manage their global publications. so they can focus on building amazing bikes. with xerox, you're ready for real business. >>> what we need to do is today, the united states has the second highest corporate tax rate in the world. i'm a former federal tax lawyer. we have to bring the tax rate down substantially so we're among the lowest in the industrialized world. here's the other thing. every time the liberals get into office, they pass omnibus bill of big spending projects. >> that's congressman michele bachmann. "keeping them honest" we discover

ron paul out there do you think that there is room for two libertarians well first of all i'm asked that all the time and ron paul got eight percent of the republican vote last go round so governor johnson what if you split ron paul's vote will if i split ron paul's vote this movement isn't going to go anywhere and this movement i would say is really liberty has its problems. it's about freedom and it needs to expand to about forty percent so if ron paul and i split forty percent of the vote then we probably need to sit down and talk to one another but if we're to split eight percent of the vote hey this is this isn't going anywhere thing and it needs to go somewhere so does that mean you don't think you have any actual chance of winning the presidency no that's i'm saying just the just the opposite that this needs to go places and i'm trying to take it places and that's not that's not a criticism of anyone else that's just where it needs to go and so there needs to be a broader base of support and if you want to say that stereo speakers are blaring the issue of the issues and the stereo would be sounds a little bit better to people than maybe you could make that argument well but you know at what are those

see if you can get ron to dance. ron will dance us off the air. >> we'll be right back.golfer. if you have painful, swollen joints, i've been in your shoes. one day i'm on p of the world... the next i'm saying... i have this thing called psoriatic arthritis. i had some intense pain. it progressively got worse. my rheumatologist told me about enbrel. i'm surprised how quickly my symptoms have been managed. [ male announcer ] because enbrel suppresses your immune system, it may lower your ability to fight infections. serious, sometimes fatal events including infections, tuberculosis, lymphoma, other cancers, and nervous system and blood disorders have occurred. before starting enbrel, your doctor should test you for tuberculosis and discuss whether you've been to a region where certain fungal infections are common. don't start enbrel if you have an infection like the flu. tell your doctor if you're prone to infections, have cuts or sores, have had hepatitis b, have been treated for heart failure, or if, while on enbrel, you experience persistent fever, bruising, bleeding,

ron artest, by the way, ron artest of the los angeles lakers had big news today. ronlly timed papers to have his name legally changed to metta world peace. metta will be his first name and his last name will be world peace. the lakers should not have let him go to burning man. that was a mistake. i hope -- and i know this is bad. i hope he has another fight in the stands. remember when he beat up that fan? wouldn't it be great to see a fan get punched in the face by world peace? i think it's time to stop thanking his psychiatrist. wimbledon is going on in england right now. and deick enberg and chris ever were kind enough to give us our unintentional joke of the day. >>> think back to one of the leaders of the all-england club. didn't exactly have his color code directly buzz his argument was, you realize we have yellow balls, green grass stains, we'll have bloody blue balls at wimbledon. >> okay. i'll leave that one alone. >> jimmy: probably for the best.

the guest: ron pollack is a great guy -- ron pollack is a great guy. -- ron paul is a great guy.le bachmann offers a very conservative viewpoint. i like her as well. i think they have a lot to offer to the discussion. as far as running for president -- one of my top goals is that i would like to see somebody who can beat barack obama. based on last night, from my vantage point, mitt romney is in the best position to do that. host: why is that? guest: his background in business and his understanding to get this country moving forward with jobs, i think he is the one who can do that. he has that sort of business background. he understands how capital formation works. if we are worried about jobs in the economy and getting strength back, i think he will actually do that. host: do you want to repeal health care? guest: yes, one of the first votes we had was to repeal obamacare. host: what about the concerns that many people have with massachusetts? guest: i think mitt romney is the first to say where the fundamental perils are. one was done at the state level, and the other was done

what we're talking about is a strategy which ron bloom really is -- we talked to ron because ron is the commander in comeef of the strategy as by the president to put together a strategy so that america, like its competitors has a game plan. you wouldn't think of going on the football field and just sort of making it up on the fly. you know, that's why you practice. that's why you drill. you go out, you cut, you get the pass. people know what they are doing. we need to do that if we're going to remain competitive in the global marketplace, but ron is the leader here. >> let me say a word or two -- two different points about the clean future, and i think they are distinct, but both very important. one is obviously as representative hoyer says with the support of his leadership and others in the congress, we were able to make substantial investments in the recovery act, but as he points out, other nations are not standing still, and so in our new budget, there is a request for continued investment, and if we don't make them, we're not going to win this element. clearly, if you look at wha

ron swanson turkey burger. >> yeah, there was an episode where rob lowe's character wants to get rid of the beef burger in the cafeteria. and ron, of course, takes great exception to that. and chris traeger, his character, says, "well, ronmy: that is not what a turkey burger is though. >> well -- let the audience be the judge of that. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: everyone agrees with me. that is not what a turkey burger is. >> well -- so, somebody online at eater.com -- >> jimmy: oh, yeah. the great food blog. >> -- made this turkey burger, the ron swanson turkey burger. >> jimmy: they put a turkey leg in a burger -- >> that's right. >> jimmy: -- and made an actual giant burger. and so, you did it backstage tonight. >> i did. i showed up early to prepare the ron swanson turkey burger for everybody to see. [ cheers ] >> jimmy: well, we actually -- we have one here. would you like to try it? >> sure, yeah. i'll take a crack at it. >> jimmy: this is it right here. [ laughter ] >> maya: are you serious? >> it's five pounds of beef. >> maya: ooh, it's shaking! >> jimmy: let's see the inside over there. >> maya: you have to unhinge your jaw to get that in your mouth? [ laughter ] >> jimmy: how did you get the bone out of the turkey
