it seems to me that we do need to have the kind of conservation that rudy a alluded to. as i read about the we are an aging society with a taste for good medical care especially for older people. and that combination is going to draw our spending up over the next couple of decades, even if we are very successful in doing everything to make the health delivery system more efficient. so i think, you know, it's not the end of the world is spending goes up to 22, 23, which it does in the rivlin peace even after stringent cuts and restraint in the entitlement programs. i was struck in the election that everybody who talked about smaller government avoided talking about social security and medicare, and even medicaid. and i just don't think they realize that if you go on doing those things, which everybody wants the government to do, it's going to cost more over the next couple of decades. >> .org donald, where'd you come down -- doesn't make sense to try to fix tax revenues to a percentage of gdp? >> no. we need to figure out initially what we want the government to do and we

sensations exhibit, where the depiction of the virgin mary particularly angered the mayor of new york, rudy giuliani, and he threatened to cut off funding. you had to watch that with interest. what was your take on that controversy? well, it was very clear that the mayor was in violation. he can say whatever he wants to say; that's fine. but he cannot withhold money from the people's museum. and, you know, that's in violation of what the supreme court's decision was. he can say whatever he want-- what bothers me a little bit is, i think people need more education-- and the mayor certainly did-- about where the artist came from: nigeria; what his parents thought about the virgin mary and how she was deified in that country before he started to make a decision about it being sacriligious or something. you tell a number of very interesting stories in the book about specific battles over specific art. and one is a about a film called watermelon woman and that your description is that it has a lovemaking scene-- but fairly modest by standards-- and it involved some lesbians-- african-american le

when the sensation exhibit was under attack by mayor rudy giuliani. what is it that americans fear about art that leads to the kind of backlash that you had to speak out about? well, they should fear art. they should fear film. they should fear theater. i mean, this is where ideas happen. this is where you-- somebody goes into a dark room and starts to watch something, and their perspective can be completely questioned, and they can look at something and identify, and the very seeds of activism, i think, are empathy and imagination. once you can imagine yourself as a mother that loses a child-- even she is a palestinian, whatever, you know-- it just opens up a whole new thing. so governments have always been afraid of art, and they should be, and i think it's an artist's job and expertise-- and i use the word artist with myself in a very humble way-- to--we're outsiders by definition, and you know, it's our job to kind of aerate things and punch holes in things so that people can squirm around in there and kind of let some light in and see what's goin

it will be all democratic because the democratic -- it is so overwhelmingly democratic, rudy and myself notwithstanding. each of the two candidates will put into a runoff, and most people are totally disenfranchised. >> how do you avoid that? >> i do not want to -- even if you have a fair redistricting plan, with a closed primary election where the turnout is lower in the midterm election, you still have to go to the right to win a republican primary and you still have to go to the left to win a democratic primary. so when you put in an open primary coupled with fair redistricting, now we are rolling. as mayor bombay -- as mayor bloomberg talk about, we had an open primary in 1998 were you still had to put an r and a d next to the name. we asked californians, given the choice to the candidate -- give the choice to the candidate to put the r or the

bush. 2001, rudy giuliani. 1992, bill clinton. so it seems like politics helps move you up on the list there, michael. >> yeah, and it is supposed to be for better or worse. you take a look at the very interesting 2001 pick. at the time, i remember being caught in the ferver of it thinking it should be giuliani and it shouldn't be bin laden. if it's really for abort or worse, it probably should have been bin laden. even individuals who are on the other side of the political fence from the tea party i think would have to acknowledge they had a profound impact on this cycle's election. >> so let me ask you since i mentioned the candidates, the unemployed american, to me that seems like that affects us certainly in the past and continues to affect us in the future. you have some people out there who perhaps will never work again. those folks who are in their 60s and who will be pumped out of the line by younger people coming into the workforce or industries like the auto industry who has not recovered. that's the only place they work

rudy spent a number of years talking about this in a lot of detail. based and your experience with a the tax plan from community, can we get from here to there? >> that is a huge question. this becomes a more complicated question. they have their own ideas in terms of certain things that they wanted to favor in this system. they were strongly in favor of having signed vanish from municipal bonds. -- in favor of having an advantage from municipal bonds. the rules are hopelessly complicated. this is impossible to explain to anyone. if you want to do it, you just have to do it t. >> let me take a break from asking questions and get you a chance to ask a few. please introduce yourself and make the questions questions and not speeches. >> i am with the coalition on human needs. r.e.m. did the concerned with what the fiscal commission did in relation to discretionary spending. i know the first round, commission said let's get to all 8 but in the second round, it was actually moved. at the rate we're going, if we don't do the appropriation bills in this lame

unless it is "rudy," unless it is the movie "rudy" or anything like that. >> you see it as a weaknessp last week on monday night football talking about his friend whom he had just lost, don meredith. more people have come up to me and said that was the most unbelievable moment because it wasn't about frank gifford hall of fame, monday night football, all of that. it was about a man losing a man that he loved. a friend that he loved. but when it's about you and you're sobbing about you, it's -- >> that's a completely -- that's a very, very, very good point. they brought up that one clip where hillary clinton got very emotional on the campaign and she broke down and all i could think of that day when she broke down -- i don't even remember what triggered it. >> i don't think she broke down. >> she look emotional. but for her, because she's -- >> it was a crack in the veneer. but again it shouldn't be called breaking down when she wasn't. >> i think weird things can happen when you're exhausted. >> tell them about what you did, hoda woman? >> which time? which time? >> nobody's -- anybod

republican leaders, former new york city mayor rudy giuliani and governor mike huckabee all supporters this. joining us now a leading champion of the bill, new york senator kirsten jill he brand. senator jill brand, i think everybody wants to take care of the people who helped take care of new york city in the aftermath of that awful event. but the bill, the tab for this, $7 billion. why so much money? >> well, this is a fund that will pay for the health care for all of these fist responders, these heros and all the victims of the families who were there at ground zero who some of the children are really suffering from very difficult lung disorders and conditions. so this is a fund that's going to pay for their health care over the next ten years. and can the bottom line is this is a question of right versus wrong. these are the men and women who literally climbed up the towers when everyone was running down, the men and women there looking for survivors in the fist days and remains thereafter. they remained there day in and day out for months and months, and i can tell you these are o

it's how rudy giuliani cleaned up new york city spretreet ligh. it gives people confidence. this is an important symbol and the president whiffed on it. tax cuts do not cause deficits. spending causes deficits. if my friend paul goes to the bar and blows the rent money, not saying you have done it again, but if you blow the rent money then fail to rob rich guy to pay for it, the rich guy didn't cause the deficit. >> you must be somewhere between getting drunk and mugging somebody. president bush cut taxes for the rich, put a prescription drug benefit on the national credit card. that plus the recession, those four things caused the deficit. we need to address each of those four things. raise taxes on rich people like you, end this god awful war in iraq. >> i want to turn the corner to s.t.a.r.t. we don't know if it's going to happen. sarah palin, this was issued in the "national review" online today. says the proposed new s.t.a.r.t. agreement should be evaluated by the only criteria that matters for a treaty. is it in america's interest? i'm convinced this treaty is not, it

remember how rudy giuliani turned around new york city the small thing the street lights, because thated people know, hey, you can work together to do do these things, tackle the big insurmountable problems too, the president picked up the phone, harry reid, get the earmarks out of the budget, pick up 20 points in the polls, people believe him he had credibility on spending, co-begin to turn -- >> no he wasn't. >> one of the few opportunities he have. >> he wouldn't. because some of the biggs supporters of earmarks are folks out of mississippi, thad cochran, jim imhoff. >> trying to help your guy, ro. >> not do anything helping him with any poll numbers. the reality is you have people who complain about earmarks, the general public, hate earmarks, they don't mind it when they come to their congressional districts, never seen a constituent say, oh, send it back, please, they all lie when it comes tory marks. >> the street lights of new york city the president could begin to turn the ungovernable city around if he picks up the phone and calls. >> if they don't pass this and all of a sudd

rudy and i notwithstanding. 5% of the people are going to put each of the two candidates in a run of and most of the people will be totally disenfranchised. >> how you avoid that? -- how do you e bork -- how do you avoid that. >> a midterm election with voter turnout is low or, you still have to go to the right to win a republican primary and he have to go to the left to win a democratic primary. as mayor bloomberg said, we had that in california. we had an open primary in 1998 when he still had to have an r or a.m. d. we asked the voters to give the choice to the canned it to put the r or the d. i think that that is the game changer. think about it. you want to unite the republicans and democrats together, introduce the open primary together. if they hate it, -- now, if an elected official is running for office, he better have a message for november. if his message is for june, he is going to lose. the one that will win is the one that the independents and republicans. that person is one to be open- minded, and pragmatic. >> from this whole side of the room, if everybody does not --

rudy and myself, not withstanding. 3%, 4%, 5% will put it -- put each of the two candidates in a runost people feel totally disenfranchised. >> i think redistricting is important and i do not want to degraded -- degrade it. even if you have a fairly districtsy -- if the of a midterm election where voter turnout is low or, you still have to go to the right to win the republican primary and go to the left to win a democrat primary. it does not take the partisanship out. if you put an open primary coupled with redistricting, now we are rolling. as mayor bloomberg talk about, you can put r or d -- we have that in california, an open primary in 1998 were used all had to putt r and d -- what we did in california this year is we ask the voters, you know what, give the choice to the candidate to put the r or d, and that will pass constitutional muster with the supreme court and we can move forward. i think that is the game changed. coupled with redistricting. because politicians today -- think about it, you want to unite the republican and democrat party together, introduce an open primary i

result of those beliefs -- elites you were profiting resources and the distribution of power where and rudire instilling fear in people predicted -- in people. if you look at most complex, even in the middle of that kind of fear, hatred, demonizing the of there, most people are not in ph -- engaged in violence. most people are just scared. they are by standards. they may be enablers. they may help provide public support. they simply believe it cannot them then those people are going to do it to us. one thing that is incumbent upon the international community is to help develop the means of dealing with in equities, and distribution of resources, and inequities of access. when you think about it, if you are in bosnia, part of the concern was that those other guys were going to gain control for of not just resources such as money or minerals or arms but also who would control education. what about access to health care? what about access to one's livelihood in jobs? if you do not have a system that is equitable, minorities will feel that. they cannot provide for a basic need. one has to look
