remember, there was a blackout that affected the game at the mercedes superdome. betty: can you guarantee no power failures? jonathan: so much work has gone into ensuring that there will not be a power failure. there are contingency plans. generators on-site. you never say never. you cannot promise 100%. we have done a lot of work. due to the security perimeter that will be built around metlife stadium, we're losing alf of our parking spaces. we are trying to call this the first public transportation super bowl. we are working closely with the m.t.a., with new jersey transportation authority to make sure that buses and trains will transport people to the games. betty: i can hear new yorkers. you know them. they will say, what? i'm getting out of the city during super bowl. what do you say to that? jonathan: my advice is do not leave town. there'll be a lot of fun and excitement. betty: they will say you know, the traffic and the hassle. how will i get to work? jonathan: they will say that anyway. new yorkers do complain. but new yorkers are very generous of spirit

evacuate, some people stayed home and some people went to the superdome. the proper thing to communicate to the population is to try and get the most people to do something predictable. and the reason for that is, if they are doing something that is predictable, i can now plan for that. i cannot plan for chaos. there is the old song 20% of the population requires 80% of the resources. it is probably a little farther along than that. it is something definite, and assuming we know what the right thing is and frequently we doan. and it is trying to get as many people to do something predictable as possible so we can respond to that. again, the superdome and in katrina, we would have had water there and encouraged people, rather than if you can't evacuate, go here and we'll have supplied. instead we have the worst situation. the population showed up where we weren't prepared for. and well more than 10,000 were scattered over thousands of square miles and had to be addressed individually. >> and i'm sorry. my question and maybe you don't know if there were a bi

new orleans saints player who famously blocked a punt during the saints' first game back in the superdome after hurricane katrina. after that the tremendous feat and his nfl career, steve was diagnosed with a.l.s. just as he gave the city of new orleans hope to rebuild after a devastating storm through his organization, "team glieson" he gives the a.l.s. community and their families hope with his "no white flags" message. steve was my guest to the state of state of the union speech this past january and the during his visit to washington, we met with the secretary of health and human services sylvia burwell and started gain human momentum for this steve glieson act. this bill again reinstates long-standing medicare policy medicare policy that was solid and true to these patients until recently to offer immediate relief for patients experiencing incredible difficulty accessing this important technology and equipment. and this act expands access to advancements in technology in a fiscally responsible way. michelle glieson steve's wife, summed up the story of a.l.s. patients and their loved

again the superdome and katrina if we thought ahead we would have not only water and supplies that we would encourage people rather than stay home if you can't or won't evacuate, go here because we have supplies but instead we had the worst situation. a bunch of people showed up in places we were not prepared for and an enormous number more than 10,000 were scattered all over thousands of square miles. hispanic maybe you don't know this, but if there were a biological attack in washington, d.c. now and all of a sudden our televisions and radios started to saying we've had an attack to you have any idea whether the advice coming forward is the right information and? >> it is scenario dependent. i go back to anthrax and they indicated the first threat thread was accidental from drinking contaminated water split its dependent on the situation of the individual. hispanic i want to make two comments. there's been a recent engagement and this is a topic particularly if you start with measles and disneyland as start walking away to something more unpredictable like a bioterror attack and how

people in new orleans who had been for days trapped this their homes or on their rooftops or in the superdomeer president bush recalled the moment kanye's comment as the worst moment of his eight years in the white house. >> i didn't appreciate it then. i don't appreciate it now. it's one thing to say i don't appreciate the way he handled his business. it's another thing to say this man is a racist. i resent it. it's not true. it was one of the most disgusting moments of my presidency. >> you told laura are at the time it was the worst moment of oh your presidency. >> yes spp. >> i wonder if some people will give you heat for that. >> i don't care. >> that president was adamant that that was his worst moment. nearly 2,000 people died in one of the five deadliest hurricanes in u.s. history. that wasn't the worst moment. nor the loss of oh 3,000 people in the september 11 terrorist attack. it was that a celebrity called him a racist. i get it. there was a lot of oh criticism of president bush for faming this kanye west moment as his low point. back up and let's consider it a little more charita
