simon heard the sermon on a set of old recordings. what was it about the sermon that caught you and influenced you? >> i liked the rhythm of the call and response between the pastor and the congregation. what he was saying was very dark. it was a very pessimistic sermon. you don't know where you'll be, you might be in a lonesome grave. here as a songwriter i'm not only writing words. i'm also writing sounds and music. so to take a modern, digitally recorded record and combine it with something from 1941 had a very interesting effect for me. i liked it a lot. it might be my favorite track on the record. >> reporter: simon says when he's writing a song, he doesn't start out with a theme or a message. he lets the story evolve. >> usually the first sentence is, or the first line is, what i'm interesting in finding, because that will launch me on, on a trail that often becomes a story. and then i'll find out whatever it is that's on my mind, my subconscious mind. >> reporter: the song "love in hard times" begins with god and his son visiti

this is almost certain not simon did just that all. they don't want to know it. by saying they are wrong, no, it's a place of reverence for them. but if you want to know the historical story, it's your comments on. there are many sites like that of our religion. when people arrive in jerusalem just about all of them thought that all the big buildings they saw were built by king david or king solomon. and, in fact, all the big buildings you see are built by herod the great, the old one. in the way people say it's very old. 300 years the middle ages there were no walls into some. the walls were on type of woman to build by philip the magnificent. of course the walls around the temple mount itself are eroding an old and a very ancient. a great variety, a great friday. jerusalem itself is talk to always as the holy city, and so on and so forth. there have been times when although the great religions have almost forgotten jerusalem. they choose i would say least pick i would say ever since 70 a.d. when it was destroyed, the jews have always revered jerusalem, once to

joining me now is roger simon from politico. former advisor to george w. bush and former dnc chairman and cnbc contributor, governor howard dean. thank you for joining me tonight. governor dean, what the democrats were really hoping for is that there was no decisive winner as there was four years ago in the democratic run. i think president obama getting 37. obama 37, clinton about 8 points less than that. nothing like that this time around. that is exactly what the democrats needed. isn't it? >> well, it would have been more fun to have santorum win but i would have to say that this problem that the republicans have is pretty extraordinary. 75% of the people in that party just don't seem to want to vote for mitt romney for president of the united states. so this goes on. and as we go on, he moves further and further to the right the most damaging thing that he has said so far is he would damage the dream act. the really important hispanic vote has now disappeared given what the republicans have said over the last few months about this incredibly fast grow

he's simon constable, columnist at "the wall street journal." >> if you think things were messy in europe, then just wait for this year. i'll have been commenting on the euro crisis for three years, but i expect my fourth year to be the most explosive. here's why-- a battle has been set up between european government elites, who want to keep the single european currency, and the european taxpayers, who are being asked to endure financial hardship in order to keep the currency. those taxpayers, those people lucky enough to have jobs, aren't that happy about those hardships. nevertheless, the elected and unelected elites of europe seem hell-bent on forcing the euro and the austerity upon their people. in 2011, we saw greece burn due to those hardships. the elites see the euro as a way to make europe more like america, with its single currency, the dollar. and they do have a point-- single currencies have huge economic advantages. but in democracies, we are governed by consent, and there's the problem-- that consent is being tested. my worry-- it won't be just greece that burns, but instead
