the upper 70s. 50 degrees in culpeper and lexington park especially into southern prince william and even into culpeper virginiare the areas right now that are experiencing some patchy dense fog. in fact visibility is down to three miles in culpeper. anything kind of wavering in and around the dc metro area points to the north and west looking pretty good. keep that in mind as you're he getting yourself out the door. notice some high thin clouds getting into the region. it's over into eastern tennessee. this lull will track toward the south and east. it isn't going to bring us any rain. it will bring high thin clouds. it's not going to be that crystal clear sky. a light northeasterly wind. otherwise today, dry and a little warmer. 73 to 78 our high temperature. still cool but not all that cold. just very fall-ish as jummy likes to say. 73 to 77 for the day tomorrow. really just seasonable conditions. if you head into the day on friday, 74. notice our overnight low temperatures in the 50s. by the weekend a few scattered clouds. that area of low pressure to our south there is some suggestion that it may intensify

most people don't think of woodrow wilson as a southerner, but it was indeed born in 1856 in virginia. his very first memory his father was a presbyterian minister in virginia and then they moved into three more states of what became the confederate states of america. but during that period when the wilson's was living in augusta, georgia, thomas woodrow wilson, young tommy is woodrow wilson was done as a boy, his first memory was when he was almost four years old and the election of 1860 had just taken place and the little boy remembered hearing, like you just got elected. there's going to be a war. and wilson carried that with him all his life. he carried with it memories of the war as well. growing up in augusta, he was spared seeing a lot of the day today horrors of the war, but anyone who grew up in the south briley experienced the devastation. wilson grew up then after the civil war, they moved to south carolina. he saw the girlie charge cities. he really took this memory of devastation with him. this is going to have a deep effect later in wilson's wife because wilson is going

you can also see a high rate in west virginia, in southern missouri, louisiana, mississippi, south texasin southern arizona. guest: at the map, and compare it to the poverty map. texas -- thert of poverty rates in some of those areas is hitting 20%, 30%. mississippi has the highest poverty rate in the country. this does correlate somewhat with income. there are some things that do not. that is why we make the data available, so that people can do this type of analysis to see where the incoming is and what about getting food stamps. host: quickly, online, where is it? guest: census.gov. to point is important out that more americans get food stamps now than ever in the past, and it's primarily because of the economy and because of their jobs. lesson, is the main criteria. income is the main criteria. so, as the economy recovers, who stamps will go down. passinghout the house the bill that would cut food stamps dramatically, congressional budget office shows they would decline as the economy recovers. host: dana. oceanside, california. more than $100,000 a year. caller: good morning. i make

southern figure. he was steep in the south, born in virginia, raised in georgia, the two carolinas, and i had not written about a politician, about a governmental figure. and also this is a big part of the story, his role in higher education in this country. one could and certainly have written good books about wilson and the influence he had on higher education. >> which of your books sell the most? >> "kate remembered" sold the most. in many ways, that was a gift from her. she said to me, publish this book closest to my death as you can. i was never quite sure why she said that. as soon as the book came out, two weeks after her death, i realize realized one of the reasons she said that, there would be a hunger certainly among her fans to read about her and have a momento, a souvenir. >> you talk about how religious woodrow wilson was and he was the son of a presbytarian minister. but the chapter headings are something i want to ask you about. chapter one, ascension, two, providence, three, eden, five, sinai, ref formation, six, advent, paul, disciples number eight, baptism, number nine,e -- i can go on

southern ohio valley. but with that high pressure behind the storm it acts like a block. it will get into kentucky, maybe west virginia by tomorrow afternoon/evening. for us especially south, that's it. the bigger concern will be into sunday/monday time frame. some of the models are trying to indicate low pressure maybe coming back and spinning off the midatlantic. sunday night into monday. could be quite a beating on the delmarva. cool and breezy and a shower threat will exist on the east side of the area. 75 today, beautiful. tonight, 55. low to mid 40s. light winds. tomorrow 78, awesome. 77 on thursday. spectacular. at least through saturday, i got question marks into the sunday/monday time frame. a coastal developments, that's going to change. right now though, mid 70s on monday with a chance of a shower. we're going into the kitchen and not just beef >>> better lives for the bison and delicious red meat. i have jill o' brian here. let me tell you the segment is sponsored by wild idea buffalo. and she says buffalo is the best red meat. actually, it's the only red meat that is endorsed by the american heart associa

and in feeble, the virginia economy even as they defended it. lee knew better than any southerner that the confederacy's resources were too limited to keep fending off the confederacies enemies indefinitely. only by carrying the war into the union states, and only by leveraging the war-weariness of the union voting public into peace negotiations could the confederacy hope to win. but this was by no means a farfetched hope. in the fall of 1862 dissension over president abraham lincoln's emancipation proclamation caused unhappy voters in new york and new jersey to install democratic governors there. a new round of antiwar, democratic candidates, were due to run in the fall of 1863 governors elections in ohio and pennsylvania. if those states also turned against the war, they could force abraham lincoln either to begin peace talks or to resign. so lee's army, some 85,000 strong, struck northward in the first week of june, crossing the potomac river, and sweeping in a long arc up the cumberland valley, until his advance guard was perched on the susquehanna river overlooking the pennsy

virginia more broadly attempted to deal with the consequences of war. so what happens to those who lives, and what happens to those families of those 20%, one out of every five southern white men who are dead in 1865? one of the things that i talk about quite a bit in the book is the concept of southern social welfare. welfare is typically aid that is given to those who are needy in society. for much of the 19th sent tally -- century, that kind of aid to the poor or aid to widows or aid to orphans didn't happen at state level. for most of the 19th century, that kind of assistance happened in local areas, right? family members would help each other out, churches would help each other out, local elites would help the needy out. i talk about each of those as options and opportunities for assistance in the context to have the post-civil war poord. the -- period. the problem is that there are so many people who need that assistance in the aftermath of the civil war that the old system simply breaks down. in this case, the state of virginia has to step in and help out and has to do more than it ever has to before, but it wants to do so in pretty limited ways. it does so in

virginia beach, norfolk, the outer banks, gone. southernami, the eastern coast of florida, all the way up to this area up into tampa, gone. and by the way, there is no more freshwater in florida during this period either because of the intrusion of seawater into the water table. new orleans, all gone. this is at a -- at a 20-meter -- in fact, it's not even that. i think this is about a three-meter rise. going up to savannah and charleston, new york city, long island, the new jersey shore, all gone. these are impacts. this isn't academic. these are impacts of billions of dollars of expenditures to try to fight this off and to hold it at bay. now what about species? well, in maine, we talk about lobster. the lobster is an iconic product of maine. it's a huge part of our society. it's part of our culture. it's also a big part of our economy. well over $1 billion a year in maine is attributable in one way or another to the lobster. and the lobster population in maine was pretty steady for an awfully long time. when i was governor -- and that wa

one of the staff members in southern virginia you mentioned something similar in look like a third world country or maybe the fourth world country people with terrible health and dental problems it was hard to leave this was the united states of america where people would spend the entire night to get the 26 attracted to find data they had cancer or whatever it may be and it did not look like america. you are familiar with that reality? yes? >> yes. definitely. >> so you are a lower income american, you are on medicaid but you don't have access medicaid does not pay? what do those people go through? >> we have an office one day i had a client in severe pain i took her to the main office we got her an appointment. i believe that a couple days a and we were told they would pay up at $200. they had very limited funds. many times them the option is waiting months of the waiting list to be able to be seen in the clinic where people are donating their time with their free off showers but though waitlisted is incredibly long and they have to wait for a long time. >> so many clients goes to thei
