[applause] >> on a serious note, ted kennedy is portrayed as this perfect example of how the left is supposed to be 8 and he is a false hero but he isn't the only false heroes that the left has portrayed in the media as if there's a difference, portrayed for liberals to look up to. hillary clinton is also one of those people and most people don't know really about hillary clinton's real record because on college campuses she is portrayed as the ultimate female figure who provides a glowing example for women everywhere. the fact is that she doesn't. her other legacy is one of defending racists and sexual predators. i'm not just talking about her husband, bill clinton. are you ok with that? are you all right? to give you a little bit of evidence of this, audio of hillary clinton gleefully defended the child rapist was published by the freebie can. to give the laid-back story on this in 1975 in her time as an attorney hillary clinton took on the case of thomas alfred taylor who brutally waked the 12-year-old girl at the age of 41. clinton said she thought taylor was guilty. the issue is

so before, i was hoping appears morgan would bring up ted kennedy because it would be my moment. and thankfully that moment came. in the stated that they play during back to the gate is jen, they should mitt romney debating ted kennedy with mitt romney challenging and received back in the '90s that ann romney said in this debate, that was featured in a video that he was pro-choice. obviously, he has since changed his position. that didn't stop piers morgan from asking me, does it make you uncomfortable hearing mitt romney is passing the joys of being pro-choice? >> and i just responded and said no, you, you know what many uncomfortable, piers? that have a confession becomes be fighting the war on women that they would play a lengthy seven minute video, attribute to a man who let a woman to drown in his car. [applause] so after that the panel exploded to it was like we can't bring up the chappaquiddick, no way. no way. we can talk about how romney pulling a kid when he was 13 but when i go to talk about what happened with ted kennedy. so hilary rosen, staunch defender despite, the

now the question is, you know, ted kennedy is dying. his legacy is all he has on his mind. .e is focused day-to-day, for all of you, and you've heard some of that earlier, you are so overwhelmed with meetings, the paperwork, , emergencyracy situations, budgets, lawyers, politics, so much of that preoccupies your every moment. you are not concerned with how you will be remembered. today, i would ask you to open your mind to memory, too memories across the 50 years of think abouttion, to community action and think about people who sacrificed to bring .ommunity action this far to think about people who use their time, their skill, their heart, to think about all of your sacrifices, to make this moment, to make this gathering, to bring all of us together at this moment possible. listening to what the minister had to say earlier and i was thinking to myself, wow, jesus said in the sermon on the mount, blessed are the merciful. blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of god. for alll be remembered time. today, 50 is late

of people thought ted kennedy might actually have a hard time holding on to that seat that year. that is, until the kennedy campaign rolled out these ads hitting mitt romney on his business record. these ads against mitt romney in 1994 were basically seen as the equivalent of a political nuclear strike. mitt romney, the guy from bain capital, basically never recovered in that senate race after these ads ran. there was a number of ads all basically making the same point talking to real people who had been affected by bain's business model coming into their town and doing its business and it destroying those people's lives. and ted kennedy had no problem beating mitt romney for senate that year. when mitt romney was running for president in 2012, his republican rivals may not have been ideologically inclined to go after the financial class in the same way that ted kennedy had been back in 1994, but when they saw that mitt romney looked like he was going to lock up the nomination, i think a lot of them found it was irresistible to avoid that very potent line of attack. >> wall street

if you can work with ted kennedy and he wants to pass a terrible bill and you can water it down so it doesn't hurt so much that is a bad compromise because you know that it's going to hurt but if you have to compromise with ted kennedy in order to, when i was there in order to get something good ... less of itdoes a good compromise. is iso to stop compromising thed things and be owing to compromise to get less good things. they come back to the next pie piece. it's not how you move the ball. >> another question down here. the message was specifically what brought you so close to closing the republican primary in 2012. i know you have a book that i was wondering if you could give us a sort of sneak preview about what exactly that message is and how we need to frame it going on looking at 2016 and beyond that. >> what i talk about in the book and the message that i have to deliver is we need to have a message that focuses on three major areas. number one we have to have a message that focuses on energy and manufacturing. .. create employment in areas where by its nature it creates jobs.

because he fought -- nixon thought ted kennedy would be his opponent in 1972. he wanted to get the goods on him. he was always wanting to get the goods on people. the main person you want to get the goods on was dan elsburg to have leaked the pentagon papers. henry kissinger was very worked up about this and it got nixon all worked up. there was actually then committed probably the most dangerous, nixon understood this. was more concerned about the fall and having been found out, then the watergate break-in and that is the burglars, the plumbers, they were called, they were planning for leaks. they went out to california and they raided the office of dan gelber ag's psychiatrist to get his psychiatric files. imagines that. the white house sending somebody out for somebody's psychiatric files. there was just one problem. they had case it. there were no files. a broken okay and they had their picture taken, they were so proud in front of the doctor's office door and they were using c i a equipment, cameras, voice changers, wigs, so the cia got these pictures and

there is ted kennedy as he is dying talking about that as the way he wanted to be remembered. now, the question is, tent kennedy is dying -- ted kennedy is dying and his legacy is all he has on his mind. he is focused. but for day to day for all of overwhelmed with the meetings, her, barack christie, emergency situations, budgets, lawyers, politics. so much of that preoccupies your every moment. you are not concerned with how you will be remembered. today i would ask

ted kennedy and leading republicans would at least get together after hours and work things out. i think we are in big trouble if we are no longer civil with each other. i have seen year after year after year, less ability. and i think money's got a lot to do with it. i think money has creeped in to our politics to the extent that that is the only voice that's been heard. it's going to be up to us as citizens to somehow take that to either speak out with a vote, speak out with the voices and say we are not going to pick up the slack of civility and we're not going to elect people. either party will not be civil with the other side. but i have diverting a little bit. my personal opinion is civility is gone. i don't see it. i don't see it in the campaign. i think i wrote about this recently. we just don't get along anymore. in the campaigns i've gotten so ugly that i don't know how to put it, but we just don't seem to get along anymore. and these ads are so ugly a roadside. i will say and i said this if you listen to a negative ad, there's always someone truth in it. it is never to
