so who was barack obama, sr.? barack obama, sr. was fundamentally in his ideology and anti-colonialist there and this is a term of the len pomata to most americans, but i do want to do it is something i know a lot about. why? because i grew up in india. i was raised in the 1960s. india became independent from the british in 1947. india, like kenya, was a british colony. and so anti-colonialism is the air i breathe growing up in india as a kid. ethical isn't is what my father believed, i grandfather, my uncles. anti-colonialism was the dumb political idea in the third world in the second half of the 20th century. anti-colonialism fundamentals nothing to do with race. it's not the race debate. i sometimes tell people the british didn't come to india because the indians were brown. the british came to conquer your now it turned out the british were white, the indians were brown and so i kind of racial element crept in, but colonialism fundamentals and is about conquest and about power. and, of course, the british ruled kenya which is

theodore roosevelt sr. was handsome, well educated, high-minded, he was the greatest man i have ever known, young theodore roosevelt said. but there was one thing, one flaw in his father, and do you know what that flaw was? his father had not served in the military during the civil war. during the nation's crisis when other people his age, other people of his health were going off to fight, the senior theodore roosevelt did not fight. now, it was probably a decision that was the best for the country. theodore roosevelt sr. became what was called an allotment commissioner, and during the civil of war he went around to the union camps to persuade the union soldiers to allot a portion of their pay to the support of their wives, children and family back home. there was nothing was required, but he persuaded them to do it and almost certainly strengthened the home front. theodore roosevelt sr. definitely did more for his country in that position than if he had joined the military and taken a position on some gen

rights activist prominent political and religious figure in the united states reverend jesse jackson sr and i think you are good for joining us today sir my first question to you is about the wall street project economic summit that you're hosting here in new york right now as we speak what is the main goal of this gathering is what are you looking to do is it hold wall street accountable try to find a situation where you could try to create more jobs for millions of people who don't have them right now and who do you hope this message will reach out in the quest for economic justice and racial justice and are the days policy is we bail out the banks who when tool crisis because. the cost of greed because i'm like oh oversight so the bill out there is all this home pull closures only the rise result is to the loan that is not where the credit card bit and so wall street being accountable is a big deal it's been over two years now that the economic crisis really reached its peak and it really seems that no one was quite held accountable in this time do you think it's something that's sti

not just bush and cheney, but clinton and bush sr.. and from that point of view the balance sheet i have prepared, the obama syndrome: war abroad and surrender at home, is not a very optimistic account or a pleasing account of this administration. now, it's not a pleasant task to write books like this. [laughter] because, you know, when you see what's going on and read a lot of material which has been published on domestic policies leave alone on foreign policies, it's striking how conservative the administration has been. now, i know all the restraints and constraints. i know that we live this a neoliberal period that despite the crash of 2008 the system and it political leaders have not attempted any serious structural reforms which were, you know, necessary after that crash. and so the crash has not gone away, it's simply been blasted over with sticking plaster. and it is going to worry people and is worrying, certainly, progressive economists, many of them who are not that radical who are saying that it's not going to work. so here

another one, when president george bush's senior -- george bush sr. went to china, they threw a return dinner, and he invited a chinese dissident to the dinner. they exercise a veto power on that particular day by preventing him physically from going to the dinner. when nancy reagan gave a return dinner in china, that was a huge controversy in this country because i think she brought her own china and everything else over to the dinner, did not stint on wasting money. each of these dinners has its own history. host: here is a tweet from of you were asking about the issue of money. do you have any idea, either one of you, about the budget of these state dinners? guest: i do not. guest: you know it has to be hefty, but it is built into the budget. thinking of all the logistics that go into this tonight, there was a comment michelle obama made prior to the first inner which i thought really captured what is going on. she said it is very much like being a swan. look perfectly calm and serene and the service and underneath you are paddling like mad. next h
