what he did do is he went to syracuse in october to a big black convention. and the famous tradition of the black conventions, the delegates from all over the country, including five southern states, and he gave a barnburner of a speech about the right to vote. not just about completing the war for emancipation, but the sacred quality of the suffrage. and he declared that the war would never be over until every deadonous slaveholder was or in custody. it is the war propaganda once again in frederick douglass. out there doing this now, not entirely sure yet, as late as the state, ho -- this date, how to trust the republican party. the election came. and on election night, by the way i found a little source for this, i only have one source, but by god it went with it, because these are some of those clippings you find and you think, 'thank you, god.' in a private collection that has everything to do with why i wrote this book, there is a little clipping, and everybody here knows that everybody who has ever met lincoln, seen him, imagined they saw him, had a rem

syracuse studied this. and they show that these are the asylum denials.are super sky high. look at el salvador. almost 69% of el salvador immigrants who ask for asylum denied. 76% from honduras. 75% from guatemala. 66% from mexico. so these denials, the number overwhelming, does that in a sense prove the president is right? if the asylum seekers are coming in and were accepted, you wouldn't have such high numbers? >> you know, it is very possible to look at that from that point of view. however, i think a lot of democrats would say with us cutting off aid to those northern triangle countries, you know, we're essentially -- the u.s. could be making the situation worse, if we were giving more aid to those countries, maybe it would make the situation there somewhat better, at least make the possibility of the situation there better. and i think that's where democrats will push back on that point. you are actually seeing some democrats in proposing some sort of immigration plan, you know, talking about maybe revamping aid to those northern triangle countries.

let me show you a study from syracuse university. how many asylums are there now? it's astounding. 68.9%, almost 60% of the people asked for asylum from el salvador are denied. honduras, 76% denied. guatemala, 35%, denied. mexico 66% and commitment is this way so the president is right when you have overwhelming majority number of asylum claims being denied when they get to our border? >> yeah, the president is absolutely right. he is right. we also have to toughen that -- those can't come across the border because they memorize their lines because they have a child. that's what has to stop. we need more border patrol and drones the technology and border barriers and that all of the above. eric: many clean the redness conditions in those countries. gang violence, murder, extortion and the like so there are legitimate reasons, of course, for this. >> but that's going on all over the world. we can't be in a position to take everyone wants to come to the country. if you have specific reasons for asylum. your heart goes out to these people but we have to look out for o
