and what's possible in here is almost impossible to say. ♪ carolina governor mark sanford >>> mark sanfordpublican party from the inside and he knows how fast things can change in politics. the former governor from south carolina was once talked about a possible presidential candidate. that is before his divorce and a departure from the governor's mansion. and now he has joined me again. i suppose that the obvious first question is why doing this interview? what would you hope to gain from this? >> i can't hammer nails for the rest of my life. i have been out to the farm that you were kind enough to come visit and you get to the point where as comfortable as that would be, it is time to begin speaking out again on issues that i have cared about for 20 years of my life. you don't invest 20 years of your life in politics if you don't really, really care. i care deeply and i'm very worried about the direction of the country. i think that if we don't watch out, we could lose it. i think that benjamin franklin's words were i'm going to hand you a republic and you can keep it. this that we are i

>> candid mark sanford at the private retreat where he lives now.y almost everybody. you know, you were public enemy number one in politics by that period and followed by others and the cycle moved on and others falled down and they get kicked, too. and what was the experience like for you on a human level, because you are not the caricature that we read about and you were the guy honest enough to say in an interview that you used to pick up the papers and say, you idiot, and other people who had done what you had done and suddenly, you are the guy. and how does it feel? it is humbling. i will have to say off of the set we were speaking a moment ago and i said candidly that i have done thousands of interviews back through congress and through the governorship and i never one moment afraid. it is that we could agree or disagree on an issue, and now as you step back out, because i think that i need to do my best as best i can in warning the country on what i think that is coming our way if we don't change the direction, you still walk out scared. i ha

so as captain sanford said, we have been doing these pedestrian safety traffic stops and basically we use them as education and our group has.comed an information piece that hopefully everybody in this community will eventually get and it's -- in terms of rules of a cyclist, rules of a pedestrian, as a driver. so from everybody's perspective so we're not singling out anybody. and our next step is to get that translated into chinese and russian so that we can get a greater distribution into the community. >> great, that's really helpful and i appreciate all the efforts. and i think in collaboration with the many organizations in this district, you will continue to do some great outreach, i'm sure. thank you for the update. i think it's grate that your -- you're working -- great that you're working together on the pedestrian safety issue. as one who drives to this area, i definitely see that need. >> thank you. >> yes, that's the other thing we're going to do is work with the schools. we're in the process of coming out with a letter that is going to be coming out so that they can desim

i want to make sure that sanford cisco has a working-class population. i want to make sure that we do not take for granted because we are seen as more cosmopolitan, that that excuses' us from not tackling issues of poverty, which there are still substantial pockets of it in san francisco, despite what others may argue. that, to me, oddly it's our requirements, to make sure our city, in its reputation of being forward thinking and progressive, learns to make sure that that translates into economic, so that this is not just a city for those who can afford it. we want to get down to brass tacks issues about not just public safety but the root causes that we want to address of job training, job placement, giving our youth something to aspire to, giving young adults something that they can turn to, giving people who feel that they need that extra level of support from city hall, from local government, the ability to be able to reach out -- that is also what tonight is part of. he is the real supervisor, my son. he just turned two last week. i know i was going

david vitter is a schmuck and senator john ensign and governor mark sanford who were part of the c. street scandals that i wrote about my book c. street and had their scandals covered up and back the senate ethics committee just came out with a devastating report on senator ensign who resigned to get to i think prevent himself from being indicted is my guess there didn't get a whole lot of coverage the second time around everyone like the sort of the they take a leading sex scandal and they were really looking at the politics of it now the interesting thing there is if you are a conservative politically conservative evangelical or a fundamentalist christian they're not always the same thing but they can be. you do have as part of your belief system you get to you get a second chance you get to say i'm a sinner and i think it's something that liberals again and again are kind of stunned and perplexed by. when when these sort of moral values family values guys sin why do their supporters keep supporting them because their supporters never believe that these guys were good guys anyway

sanford racked up action in last saturday against duke. they have given up only one touchdown all season. they lost to the wildcats in tucson. they will have their handsful tonight with another great quarterback in nick folds. >> not going to try to do too much but going to approach the game with the mentality he's a great quarterback. guys are going to be keying in on the details. >> state farm is opening up in nevada. giving the packs a taste of their own medicine. stewart out takes the handoff takes it in 28 yards game tied at 7. never never comes back in the second. wolf back up 14-7 at the half. 17-7 in the 4th. a better catch by brandon rut lee. rides up the gut within three. spartans have a chance to win it. going for 6 but it is picked off by duke williams. nevada runs the clock there. 0-3 heartbreaker 17-14 that final. >>> a dau after the central title they have a game a piece. he knows it he has to get the team back up today. punches one to right. two batters later they get another. coco crisp draws this one in front of jackson.

hear the conversation that took place here, but no the statistic that for every four people that sanford's is the police department arrests and the da prosecutes, nearly three are repeat offenders -- for every four people that san francisco police department arrests and the da prosecutes -- the d.a. prosecutes. there is evidence to show that doing everything we can to try to divert some of his life from repeating their offense, but we will have to really vigorously enhance our approach. one way to do that obviously is the collaboration being fostered and demonstrated here today, but it is more than just today. it will have to be every single day, or else california will continue to be building more prisons, and san francisco may not be far behind. thanks. [applause] >> once again, thanks for the flag. [laughter] have a good time. have a good evening. thank you very much. [applause]

[reading names] for many years, i have always look forward to my trips in and out of san francisco airport. the environment created by including the locally owned and iconic small businesses, like [reading businesses] joined by the new organic cafe, they have always filled me with pride. now known as the company's books has always given my family and myself a familiar place to pass time. as a small business woman, i recognize the economic benefit to the small companies that are able to operate in this high volume area. i'll leave this opportunity has benefited the businesses that are located in these neighborhoods. when i was fortunate enough to fly out of the new terminal on the very first day of operation, i looked around me at the small businesses represented, and the most important to the san franciscans employed, i felt it was time that our commission honors the wo

back to the philadelphia area because that is where my family is, but i was always interested in sanford cisco in terms of the city, culture, the amazing lgbt community -- i was always interested in san francisco. i am an attorney. i started off in private practice, doing complex litigation. in 2002, i moved to the san francisco city attorney's office, where our work on the trial team, doing trials for the city and doing my own cases and supervising a team of attorneys as well. another huge issue confronting the city is the deferred maintenance on our infrastructure. we have a lot of infrastructure that has been deteriorating because we have not maintained it properly, from our roads to our sewer system to muni. we need to be much more diligent about maintaining our infrastructure. i have been interested in politics since i was a kid. i have worked on campaigns since i was a teenager. i was involved in campaigning against senator jesse helms when i was in college. when i came out here i was not initially involved politically. i was involved in community work, helping to build the lgbt co
