in addition to his senatorial materials every large collection -- we have a large collection of his campaign materials. i selected a couple of items regarding his campaign. we have some classic photographs from the campaign where we can see him doing the hard work of trying to become president in 1964. one of the interesting things about the senator was his interest in using media to assist his campaign for president. so there were many, many television appearances. toms were actually made support the campaign. factmotion picture film in is a very important film in the campaign that was known and had the title "choice." this film has been digitized and is available for viewing. we have hundreds of motion and audiolms recordings of senator goldwater's run for president. many appearances before and after the campaign. popularity of the that he demonstrated through his for the presidency in 1964, he was able to meet with a number of distinguished individuals and other public servants. he met with many presidents before and after his campaign. from its collection we have selected a few photograp

we worked at night on the senatorial committee doing research. we used to do this thing called coding where we go through the record and type it in to a database and we would get i think $.95 per article . i worked from 4 pmto midnight at the senatorial committee in a basement that is now a gym . and then did everything i could to get a job in the press and finally, everyone kept saying you'd be really good at this, youhave no experience . >> a real irony, right? >> sorry. >> hope that wasn't my cup. there it was. >> didn't break. >> of course it won't. you cannot get over. >> bottom line, there was a guy, a poster that i was affiliated with in 1996 and he said there's a race in western pennsylvania. the guy is in a primary,he's not going to lose the primary, do you want to do it and i was like yes . so i moved to washington pennsylvania. to work for a guy out there. >> who was that? >> gary welsh, he dropped out of the primary right before but at the time, this is important, i whatever it was, was for three months the campaign manager and press

senator schumer was picked as the head of the democratic senatorial campaign committee. why was he chosen? paul: tom daschle was the democratic leader. he had just lost his race. harry reid was elevated to minority leader. schumer had just won reelection at that point. and honestly, if -- he always held under utilized by daschle's team. read kind of picked up on that and said, i'll tell you what, you are great, you are a strategist, run the senatorial committee. and he ran it with a brutal efficiency. they won six seats that year. almost all of them were defeating incumbent senators. in 2008, they picked up eight more seats. they basically set up the possibility of getting the barack obama agenda through congress because they had such a big super majority. it was ruthless. it was tough. he came after you on every issue possible. him and mitch mcconnell had a lingering bitterness since 2008, after they helped negotiate this tarp bailout for wall street. there were people running ads against mitch mcconnell and israel election over that issue. mcconnell felt that that was

senator mcconnell: i was at the national republican senatorial committee building in washington.hought we had a pretty good chance of taking the statehouse after all of these years. never thought we would get 64. i thought that was probably the last celebration i was going to have that night, because we've found that out around 8:30, 9:00 at night. i honestly thought we would not hold the u.s. senate. i thought we would come up short. and i did not think president trump had a chance of winning, so i figured that was my last celebration, 8:30 at night. it was an exciting development for republicans who feel like we have a better agenda for the future of the state than the one that was constantly killed in the state house of representatives. even though it is not part of my job, i have had a long-standing interest in helping those guys when i could, and i played at least some role in that. it is indeed a new day. in kentucky. and we will see whether a very different kind of agenda can move our state into the future. mr. goodman: is there any way to compare the emotion of holding th

>> well, i also think you have to look back at her 2010 and 2012 senatorial races where she made entrepreneurship and small business ownership, you know, kind of a keystone to her campaign. since she has decided on a new path away from public office, she's been doing a lot related to women and entrepreneurship. so i do think that her background specifically with the wwe is just one part of her story. and i like to believe that we all have good intentions so we're going to wait and see and partner with her and make sure the sba is working for america's small businesses. >> it sounds like the sba has been very concentrated in this administration about championing women's businesses and it sounds like that's going to continue with linda mcmahon should everything go forward. let's talk about 2017. dennis, what is the number one priority, do you think, for helping small businesses in this upcoming year? >> i think the number one thing that will happen in the first 100 days of the trump administration is going back and taking a look at the regulations, the overburden they have put on people that are ou

worked at night at the senatorial committee doing research.e used to do this thing called coding and we would go to the congressional record and type it into a dos database and i think we would get 75 cents per article and i worked from 4:00 p.m. till midnight at the senatorial committee in a basement that is now a gym. did everything i could to get a job in the present finally everyone same like you would be good at this, but you have no experience and so-- >> the ultimate irony. >> it was a catch 22. >> sorry. >> hope that wasn't my cup. >> so, basically bottom line is there was a pollster i had been affiliated with a 1994 that called me and it was 1996 and he said there is a phrase in western pennsylvania and he said the guys in a primary will probably lose the primary. if he loses the primary he will get killed in the general, do you want to do that it and i said yup. i moved to washington, pennsylvania, to work for a guy. >> who was that? >> a guy named larry welsh and he dropped out of the primary, but at the time and this is important.

this runoff which was viewed as such a long shop most democratic groups including the democratic senatorial campaign committee stayed out of the race. last night kennedy told his reporters he plans to fight washington insiders and change the direction of the country. >> in the world we live in today, there are no state issues and there are no local issues and there are no federal issues, they're just issues. if any single louisianan has a problem at the state level or the local level or the federal level, it's my problem. i will be involved in washington and back here in louisiana. >> and with the win republicans now hold a 52-48 edge in the senate giving them a little more wiggle room to pass the massive reforms that both they and president-elect trump has been promising throughout this campaign season. eric? >> thanks so much. >> have you noticed -- >> man. >> you definitely really know given where you've been. winter has arrived, and it is a whopper in parts of the midwest. in fact, runs of flights have been canceled in chicago. now, the storm is heading east so what can we expect? >>> a

bauer: when i was 20 years old in 1972 i interned at the committee, senatorial and first heard the name joe biden as a longshot candidate for the senate. the staff was skeptical that he could win, and while the executive director was confident he would, he did. he was elected six times to the united states senate and the vice presidency of the united states in 2008 and 2012. but he won over that period of time the biggest selection of them all -- the admiration, the gratitude, in the affection of all americans, and it is truly bipartisan, as anyone who observed the tribute yesterday well knows. it's with that but i introduce to you the vice president of the united states, joe biden. [applause] thank youdent biden: all very, very much. thank you all very much. i want to make it clear -- the main reason i'm here is bob bauer told me to be. i'm delighted to be here, bob is a great friend, and his advice is only exceeded in its wisdom by his wife, who has been advising me for a long time as well. i think bob is one of the great legal minds, as well. a man who every piece of legal advice he

the problem with that is in most of these positions they have to go through senatorial confirmation sossens the pool. additionally going out to qualified people, it's a tremendous sacrifice, a wonderful honor to go into the cabinet but they're sacrificing their personal life, their business life so, the pool gets smaller. when you then finally get this tiny pool and you're saying what i want is people that know the system but are not of the system, you start delimiting it once again. there's 4,900 jobs that need to be filled out in this transition. i mean, ill's an amazing -- and i'm lucky because they took all of the great guys and they said, okay, you're going to be in charge of finance, you're the treasury secretary, you're in charge of commerce, you're in charge of war and we need a party planner, barak, you're the party planner. so i have the easiest choice but it's difficult for these transition people to create the proper reservoirs of people who have experience and access but that don't have this embedded point of view that won't change. and that's the challenge. >> talk about

linda mcmahon, failed senatorial candidate, also gave $6 million to a pro-trump superpac during the campaign. or one way you might put it is, mcmahon paid and now she getses to play. imagine if president-elect hillary clinton had named a top clinton foundation done tore lead the small business administration, house republicans would be revving up a new hearing on that and the media would go wild. the trump cabinet and all its nonswamp drainage issues ahead. >>> thing one tonight, earlier in the show we mentioned andy puzder, the man trump is expected to name as his pick for secretary of labor. puzder is the ceo of the fast food company that owns carl's jr. and hardee's and one of the most incongruent aspects of his potential role as labor secretary is his once expressed desire to annihilate labor at his restaurants. earlier this year puzder said he want to try replacing workers with automation saying machines are always polite, always upsell, never take a vacation, they never show up late, there's never a slip and fall or an age, sex or race discrimination case." so in effect the carl's jr.

to look at all of these battleground states. 2018, there are going to be more democratic senatorial seat up. we have to be clear about what our role is. in terms of the whole third, fourth, fifth party, we want to have voting where you can do preferential voting. first choice, second choice, third choice. if you need to express yourself , i would in that way never get over that. in any case, if you had to do that ranking, you could do that. why are wething is not starting now in terms of looking at who is there? is, -- i'veing never met you what you are good. some of the other young brothers. we need to run them in posses. we need to run them in tens and 20's. we can't afford to get into this. i have never met you before. forgive me, i'm not making fun of you. do and, we have work to i hope that -- i know you're running the show. i own all. i am old and i am cold. i enjoy every moment of it. >> i think is important for us. you are right. what i am saying, to be clear, before we look at any party, let us figure out our electoral revolution for ourselves. what we need to do, this work. i w

and because of the two senatorial bonus electors, they actually have 40 electors compared to ohio's 18. but while the presidential candidates spend tens of millions of dollars and tens of thousands of staff hours in ohio, they spend essentially zero resources and time fighting in any of the small states except for new hampshire because it happens to have a rough equivalency of democrats and republicans. the candidates don't go to big states or small states. they go to swing states. and within that lucky band of states they go to the big ones. fully two-thirds of the events staged by the clinton and trump tickets in this year took place in only six states, florida, north carolina, virginia, pennsylvania, ohio and michigan. amazingly almost every single appearance and event by the campaigns happened in just 12 states. so the vast majority of americans were simply left on the sidelines. and this has a predictable effect on voter turnout. in 2012, for example, the swing states saw nine points higher voter turnout than the safe states did. which makes sense because the reason that people go

until midnight at the senator al committee in a basement -- senatorial committee in a basement that's now a gym and did everything i could to get a job in the press. finally, everyone kept saying, you'd be really good that the but you have no experience. mr. sherman: the irony. mr. spicer: it was. it was a catch 22. hope that wasn't my cup. ms. palmer: the back. mr. sherman: it didn't break. mr. spicer: of course it won't. you can knock us over but we're not breaking. mr. sherman: i knew that was coming. mr. spicer: bottom line is, there was finally a pollster i'd been affiliated with who called me and said, hey, there's a race in western pennsylvania. he said, the guy's in a primary, he's probably going to lose the primary. do you want to do it? i'm like, yep. so i moved to washington, pennsylvania, to work for a guy out there. larry welsh. he dropped out of the primary right before. but at the time, this is important, then i was -- for whatever it was, three months then, a campaign manager and a press secretary. ms. palmer: got the title. mr. spicer: another pollster who had dropped

so without the senatorial check and the case got rid of legislative veto for unicameral, idaho passed an amendment to have a bicameral legislative veto. since we lost -- got the 17th amendment is the legislative veto viable at the federal level on a bicameral basis and i'm also wondering what roger and professor baker in particular have to say about that. >> you want a legislative veto, two houses? >> i would love to have it myself. no. yeah, the two houses together kwo get rid of executive branch rules. >> here is the problem with many people on the left and the right. they see a particular problem and they look only at that problem. they come up with a solution for that problem without thinking about the consequences the new problems they are creating. you have to look at the whole body together and figure out what you're doing. remember, the 17th amendment was passed with virtually no opposition by populists on the right and left except the populists on the left knew what they were doing. they were out to destroy separation of powers. nobody made the argument, structural arguments.
