franklin roosevelt starts his career as an anti-reformer in the united states senate in 1914 he runs from the united states senate and puts up an opponent and franklin roosevelt gets his head handed to him. and after that, he realizes don't fight the hall let alone the city hall, and he backs away from any direct confrontations with them. but in the late 20s, early 30s, there are really big and destinations one after another to the judges, the police, the officials and then it is the mayor james j. walker coming and what is franklin roosevelt going to do about its? the socialist leader, people like that say do something, crackdown coming and roosevelt who knows you're going to control the democratic national convention does as little as he can about ten in the end only does it when he absolutes but he has two. he can't be too favorable to them because people in the rest of the country has to dance. he'd been a member of the wilson administration and undersecretary of the navy in world war i. franklin roosevelt did until january, 1932 a. gentleman named william randolph gets on the rad

united states? >> well, those people who know the united states well are quite totally contrary to american values, as discriminatory and, frankly as potentially dangerous and it seems like a person running for united states is doing well in the polls is prepared to take actions that would, in fact, ratify the notion that people are at war against islam, not against daesh. so i think you have to be very careful by categorizing people by being muslim. that's discrimination and it's contrary, i think, to the fundamental values of our country. we have plenty of ways to vet people. we already do it. we have a huge process of examining people for visas. we know who's coming into our country for the most part. >> you're talking about review of the state department. the wife in the san bernardino terrorist attack, it turned out, she had been communicating radical believes on social media before she applied for her that's something done during the veting ing vetting process. is that something that now needs to be done during the vetting process? a look at social media and things like that? >> the review has been ordered and we need to look at whether there are means and how we can do it. clearly

view that imposing some kind of religious test on those seeking to enter or even return to the united states runs counter to the constitution. in washington the secretary of a ban on any muslim entering the u-s will hurt the war on terror by setting back the effort to get u-s muslims to do more to spot potential radicals. speaker ryan and many others in the gop worry more than ever that trump is driving moderate voters away from their party. we've got you covered live in the newsroom nikki newbrough kwwl news. democratic frontrunner hillary clinton tweeted today in saying they're a threat to national security. clinton will be in on our website. in continuing coverage a 14-year-old pleads guilty in court for shooting and killing another teen. 15-year-old aaron robinson was shot and killed on september sixth in cedar rapids... police say 14- year-old robert humbles was the one who fired gun. court this morning for humbles plea hearing kristin what did you see? humbles came in with his hands and feet cuffeed he didn't show really any emotion as he plead guilty to all three charges against him. 15-ye

so, russia, if i was russia i would have wanted that deal done, too, because the money by the united states run by incompetent people is giving to iran, a lot of that money is going to russia and other countries to buy armaments. you don't know that, george, but that's the way it is. >> i do that. i'm just not sure it's our fault. i'm afraid that's all the time we have time for this morning. always a lively

that kind of person should not be running for president of the united states. the "new york times" looked at marco rubio and if he could win the nomination. mr. trump has a fundamentally limited appeal. win iowa and mr. shrum could win new hampshire. the second condition is that is to rubio would need to fill the void with those conservative voters and donors. the third condition is mr. rubio would need to hang on until march 8 and march 15 because he probably won't be doing much winning before then. that is the "new york times." adds thisngton post" morning that the next gathering will take place a few days after christmas at a remote ranch. cruz will speak to some of the country's leading evangelical figures. they are still considering other rubio.tes, including rubio has stepped of his courtship act. , butbeing warmly received has encountered skepticism about his campaign's reliance on money from pulsinaul

[cheering] [applause] they say they are not scientists. that is why they should listen to the scientists. when we hear republican candidates say that they would shut down the government in order to defund planned parenthood, and when one republican candidate calls us pro-choice americans barbarians, it is time to elect hillary clinton as president

first thing she'd say is, so, you're running for president of the united states, mr. big shot. don't get big with me, buddy. i changed your diaper. i know who you are. my mother would want me to keep my head on my shoulders and my feet on the ground. it was important to her that her children be grounded. and second thing i know she'd say to me is, listen, chris, if you're going to do this, if you're going to ask these people for the most trust they can give anyone outside their family, you better tell them everything. you better tell them exactly what you're thinking and exactly how you feel, because in a trusting relationship, that's what we do. and so that's who i am. and that's who i'll be. if you give me the chance to be president of the united states, you're never going to have to wonder what i think. in fact, i'm sure there will be some days you'll turn off the tv because you've heard enough. you'll never have to wonder how i'm feeling, because you'll see t i don't hide my emotions well. i wasn't taught that way. so you'll see how i feel. you'll never have to wonder what

certainly crooked, franklin roosevelt starts his career as a reformer in the new york state senate but in 1914 he runs for the united states senate, put the bent opponent and franklin roosevelt gets his handed to him. after that he realizes don't fight tammany hall, loans city hall, from any direct confrontation with them but in the late 20s and early 30s there are three big investigations one after another. mayor james walker, what has franklin roosevelt done about it, common socialist leader, rabbi weiss, do something, crackdown, roosevelt knows tammany will control the 96 votes in the democratic national convention, does as little as pecan and only does it when he absolutely has to, can't be too favorable because outside of new york, the rest of the country, you act like him so he has the dam. there's a third issue in which he is shifty about it. he was a member of the wilson administration, was undersecretary of the navy during world war i end meant to favor the league of nationss. franklin roosevelt in january 1932 william randolph hearst gets on the radio on his radio station in los angeles and blasts everybod

to bed love donald trump here at least running the united states. run everything but i stay a little i wish he could get a little more political savvy and then i would be totally happy. we are also asking you on facebook the issues that are important to you. a couple of comments -- this one from michael host: let's get back to calls. william is on our independent line. my concern is i would never vote for hillary. i voted for bill clinton but hillary, no. job clinton did do a good and yes, he messed up with the monica lewinsky thing, but it's time for a change. i'm going to vote for donald trump. i think he's got the right message. is if he had great ted cruz for vice president. wes country is changing and pay out everybody. the government has their hands in sony people's pockets. we need a lot less government. it is going crazy. host: the issue of hillary clinton came up and donald trump's comments. and we will show that to you later today on c-span. here is what donald trump had to say on the issue of donald trump and women from earlier today. mr.

. >> in the late '80s he talked about japan victimizing the united states and talked about young criminals running wild in the united states. he's updated with new vocabulary but the core has not changed. he figured out he could sell the same kind of politics with the same mastery he brings to selling casinos and hotels. there are a group of people out there who will always be happy to guy bye what he's selling and he sells the latest product now. >> rose: michael. earlier in the campaign let's not forget this statement he made yesterday doesn't come out of the blue. he entertain a registry of muslims in the country and talked about syrian refugees coming into the united states as the biggest trojan horse in history and he's talked about it being misleading how many president obama will let in and talks about closing the borders. to evan's point we're talking about 12% of americans here, that's not how it looks abroad. these comments are resonating in the arab media and around the world, and i think there is a dangerous perception that drmp speaks for the majority of americans and that could have
