talk about it during the clinton administration. there are a number of things you mentioned in the book that i was unaware of. i don't think a lot of americans knew this was occurring the beginning of the clinton administration. they didn't exit the party right away. other politicians understood this game bill clinton comes in and 92. one of the ways you signal to white working-class voters is he rebukes jesse jackson. he used his convention. that wasthat was not a message to black people but white voters. because of the needs to do compromise. republicans taking advantage gearing to the right who does the crime bill. reverend al sharpton was protesting when the crime bill passed. it is seen by civil rights leaders as the beginning of war. he does the welfare reform bill, trying to get the worst bill through that had real consequences. so this clinton path which on the one hand was a golden economic age for african-americans, and they loved bill clinton in a lot of ways. there was a lot of tension, to. >> host: fascinating. i know yo

what we have done is a continuation of work that had been done previously by the bush administration, the clinton administration. the office of faith-based organizations are working on an ongoing basis around a whole host of issues. my brother's keepers reaching out to churches and synagogues and mosques to try to figure out how do we reach young boys and young men in a serious way. but the one thing i want to say is that, when i think about my own christian faith and my obligations, it is important for me to do what i can myself, individually, mentoring young people or making donations. in some ways, impacting whatever circles of influence i have. i also think it is important to have a voice in the larger debate. and i think it would be powerful for our faith-based organizations to speak out on this in a more forceful fashion. this may sound self-interested, because there have been -- these are areas where i agree with faith-based groups and issues where we have had disagreements around reproductive issues or same-sex marriage or what have you. maybe it appears advantageous for me to focus on th

talk about the clinton administration. their number of things you mentioned in the book that i was unaware of that highlight this fracture and i don't even think a lot of americans knew that this was occurring in the beginning of the clinton administration. >> guest: wanted things people assume is we want the civil rights and voting acts to exit the party. didn't exit the party right away but you had southern politicians including jimmy carter and including bill clinton who understood this wishful game where you have to keep wide rural voters in line and behold us at their hands at the same time. bill clinton comes in the 92 and one of the things he signals to white working-class voters that he is their guy as he rebukes jesse jackson whose movement change the party. this incredible voter registration movement. he goes to his convention and rep nukes him. that wasn't a message to black people. that was a message to white voters. he comes in bill clinton and because of the need to compromise because you had republicans take

and then talk about it during the clinton administration. there are number of things you mentioned in the book that i was unaware that highlight this fracture, and i don't think that a lot of americans knew that this was occurring. >> guest: one of the things that people assume was instantly once the civil rights act passed that white southerners exit the party. they didparty. they did not exit for four years, he has some politicians who understood this push ballgame. the whole both of their hands at the same time. bill clinton comes in and 92 one of the bases signals to white working-class voters that he is there back is he rebukes jesse jackson. that this incredible voter registration. he used his convention. that was not a message to black people, that was a message to white voters. because of some of the need to do compromise. republicans taking advantage of the gay-rights issue and trying to help the military and then ends up getting to write. forget, reverend al sharpton was protesting. it wasit was seen my a lot of civil rights leaders

in fact, the planning of 9/11, 2001, happened during the clinton administration on president clinton's watch and for people that are fools or they like rouhani, then don't know or just lying about it, during the clinton administration, president clinton's policies were to run help persecuted muslims wherever we -- wide receiver we found them around the worldle while we were -- whenever we found them around the world. while we were busy helping muslims, they were planning the attack on new york city and washington, d.c. and hoping to wipe out the entire american government here in washington, d.c. and but for the heroic act of people on a plane that took it down in pennsylvania, they may well have. we don't need to hear any of these lies about oh, if america just hadn't invaded afghanistan and iraq, regardless of whether you agree with what president bush ordered with iraq, the fact is, 9/11 was a terrorist attack before and so was the attack on the u.s.s. cole. and so were the attack on our embassies around the world during the 1990's. and so was the first world trade center attack in

i was in the clinton administration. democrats controlled the house and senate. now we see the republicans have. now we see president bush really having a bit of troubles, lots of scandals and issues. is there a danger that unified government breeds a form of arrogance or people don't reach out? is there maybe something admirable about divided government? or is it just a matter of encouraging people to essentially pretend there is divided government even if you control everything? >> there is a growing sense in the country that divided government isn't so bad. i tell a story in the book about a lady who saw me the week before the election and was hyperventilating saying what happens if john kerry becomes president. and she said what would happen? and i said they will be okay. i said if he is elected, there is less money spent because the government would turn down a ba bunch of programs and i was right. the idea of divided government when parties start to lose their way i think it is a good thing. but if a party inherits a platform or program i would like to see

force officer, susan shirk, she was a deputy assistant secretary of state for china in the clinton administrationchairs the 21st century china program at the university of california, san diego and christopher johnson, a senior adviser who closely watches china at the center for strategic and international studies. welcome all three to the program. let's talk first about what was accomplished, china signing on to this climate change agreement, so-called cap and trade system. susan shirk, where they limit how much an industry can pollute. how significant is this? >> very significant because air pollution has become a domestic political problem in china and the chinese leadership has, therefore, gotten very serious about its commitments on climate change because these two issues are very much related, and to see china and the united states both making strong commitments on climate change going into the u.n. climate summit in december is -- sends a message that the two countries can cooperate when their interests are as aligned as this one. >> woodruff: chris christie, yocrist --christopher johnson,

the clinton demonstration. he ran into someone part of the incoming administration. id the most important thing you can do is fix fannie mae freddie mac. areany: these companies widely perceived as democratic companies. but it was actually under the clinton administration larry summers first of them on an official way. meaning you begin a criticize him publicly in question the u.s. government's ties. it became a huge political brouhaha. i think it is fascinating that it was a democratic treasury secretary. charlie: what you going to do? bill: solution is to restore fannie and freddie do what they were 30 years ago, very safe businesses. why is that important? the u.s. economy is the only finance market the world where you can borrow money at a 30 year fixed rate. to borrow 80% of the night of a home. you can borrow money at something less than 4% on a first mortgage on a $250,000 home, it really enables the dream of owning a home. it is a very good way to save for retirement. that is what we need to go back to. when we get back there, was happened, they took risks the

speak of 9/11 with our guest in a minute. , first andr joins us he is identified with the clinton administrationident bill clinton's administration. on the t-mobile phone line, switch your business today. sandy, thrilled to speak to you this morning. i would suggest not only is syria unraveling, but the dialogue on syria is unraveling right now. what do you look for from washington as we see refugees and migrants in europe, and we see the warfare continue in syria? tody: number one, we have step up to the plate. time for us to lecture them about taking the refugees. we took in a tight -- 1800 last year, so we have some credibility. number two, ultimately, we have to go to the source of the bleeding in syria. until that bleeding is stopped in some way, this will pour into europe and the on. europe itself will have to work out a structure of processing and sharing the refugees. it will be very difficult for europe, all sorts of strains thomas fears of cultural changes, fears of economic threats. but this is really a test of whether europe stays together as a united europe. michael: i want to ask a

the officers back on unrestricted status. charges against johnson were dropped. split betweenial hillary clinton and the obama administration. clinton says she opposes restrictions on the keystone xl pipeline. president obama has not said that he will approve the pipeline. supporters argue that it will boost energy up and create jobs. up and say the environment the risk is too grateful stop a government review of the project began when clinton was secretary of state. ministers have agreed to a plan for them to take in 120,000 refugees. four countries in central europe -- hungary, slovakia, and the czech republic among them, voted no. they are dealing with their worst refugee crisis since world war ii, as tens of thousands of people fully the war in syria. -- the people flee the war in syria. today, a first of its kind honor flight featuring only female veterans. in world war ii as well as the korean war and vietnam war were welcome to d.c. today. 70, most ofrs than them paired with younger female veterans. they were taken to arlington national cemetery and the women in military service to america memorial. and the weather c

the clinton library has almost nothing about bill clinton the person. the clinton library is being planned and the latter part of the second term of the clinton administration i can't figure out why they weren't focusing on character issues in the exhibit at that time. there is what i called an old-time museum table, upstairs in the balcony, in, in the corner there are three tables. two of them have built clinton's book and report card. the rest of the museum is not about his governorship, his all about his eight years of presidency. it's all facts, all data, all the time. it's a very big contrast to the reagan library which is all about character. i encourage you to get involved. i have a list in the book of things we can do to reform the library system. my favorite is that the national archives opens the presidential museums an average of four years after the presently's office. it takes 100 takes 100 years to open the records. so we just make it small change and inhibit the archivist from accepting a museum until 75% of the items are open. if that were the law, people would get together and figure out a way to put the money and resources, and effort and

and here is one of her as first lady in the clinton administration. hillary's top ad man says the pictures of her early years are important in telling her story, where she came from and the moiments that shaped her life. but republicans disagree. one advisor saying her ads and the photos are making her more tired and more dusty. oh, dusty? >> says a guy who is like negative 20 in the polls. the advisors should work with jindal. >> do you think jindal is old and dust ay? >> no, i think his campaign advisor would be advised to make his campaign -- >> he hides go pros all over his house. >> can you imagine those kids? can you imagine the trauma those kids will face and what they will find on their mom and dad's go pro one day when they are not looking? >> do you think it will help her? it seems her ancient those old photos. >> i do think it is nice she kept something from her e-mail server. >> that's right. it is nice to see that happen. >> it says a lot about a campaign that you can't show anything current. people associate it with negative thoughts and

about to repeat itself and as you correctly point out, neil, what we saw was back during the clinton administrationome of the same negotiators working on a framework 12 years later, a nuclear explosion underground. so they now have only nuclear capability but nuclear bombs. yet we somehow think that the iaea is going to police it, sanctions relief will make us all sing kumbayah. you and i know better. troubling we're about to go down the same track again. neil: i don't understand, sir, why we repeat the same mistakes. i understand this tends to be human nature. why we constantly see wars and altercations but some of the same provisos we built in with iran in the latest agreement were the same securities and monitoring we built into north korea, including the freedom to inspect north korea's sites. then north korea said, no, we're not letting you in. then the u.n. inspectors, i guess the iaea of that day, said, no, no. we have to come in and show us. no, it is our country. you're not coming in. that should have telegraphed warnings to what is going on now and these assurances built into an agreement

>> iran has deals with al qaeda since the 1990s, the clinton administration founded, the first federalictment, the 9/11 commission found it, president obama's treasury department referencing these deals since july of 2011, get as much information as possible about these deals so we can see what happened and the wall street journal editorial, those referencing iran shelled be released to the public. that is right and very few people calling for that. the house until chair, a big strong push to do so. >> will al qaeda be empowered by the iran deal? >> i don't think funds will flow to al qaeda because of the deal but it is telling that iran, even if the negotiating is with us, began according to the obama administration so even as they are trying to negotiate with iran, they have this agreement with al qaeda that is telling. >> they said that is not part of the terms of the agreement, they wanted to be separate when the administration talks about terror. we have seen with the court documents the release papers the connection between al qaeda and iran that usama bin laden dead and his sepa

when the bush people came in, particularly after the feeding frenzy that went on during the clinton administration, and i agree he is the most gifted politicians i have seen in my lifetime, he understood politics for a well, but he did not control his message all the time very well. a lot of what the bush people wanted to do was to really control the message and make sure we thought was important, not writing a press release or your story, but what we thought was important with get out there. underestimate this, george w. bush would go nuts about leaks. they had a newly policy. there was greater discipline and that white house about not leaking stories. , one time there was a leak time bill casey came into the senior staff of the white house, to complain about cia stuff getting linked. 15 minutes after he left, the white house correspondent of the washington post said that 8 meeting people had a call about a link. i think the team was good, i think a lot of the problem, the press had dreams dramatically -- changed dramatically. we have lost a lot the greatest fears and entities that used to be. we

billf the agreements that clinton's administration signed. we talked about the negotiations that went into that in the book. limiteds still cooperation. a case-by-case cooperation. there are opportunities to expand that into joint planning, exercises, intelligence sharing, that would make that cooperation much better. otherwise, cuba is a blind spot when it comes to stopping narcotics traffic. there is the issue of environmental protection. before the deepwater horizon accident, the united states government did not talk to cuba about environmental protection. the only dialogue was between cuban government institutions and u.s. nongovernmental defensetions like the fund. outdated deepwater horizon accidents, when the cubans began to drill in their own zone not far off the coast of florida, there still was not a dialogue like that. and the obvious situation that had it there been an accident in cuban waters, all of the assets that converged on deepwater horizon to try to contain the cuba, couldn't go to because of the embargo. that has been chan

the '94 framework which was entered into by the clinton administration, neil, was the very same thingagreement they talked about north korea giving up its entire nuclear infrastructure. we knew from '92 to '94 that the north koreans were doing all sorts of things at the highly classified level. my fear here, neil, based on reporting coming out about intelligence being cooked, we may well know the iranians are up to no good, have completely avoided telling congress that. >> it seems a little disjointed. i want to explain to viewers. we are showing headlines at the time of the north korea deal. if it seems, to your point, a little deja vu-ish. >> you're correct. i'm glad you did that. what i am saying is that it's all very earaly similar. the negotiators who negotiated the '94 deal negotiated this deal. the definition of insanity, doing the same thing over again and expecting a different result or maybe not. in this case you're talking about $100 billion thrown into the iranian coffers immediately. i'm telling you, we'll soon find out the reason the north koreans are ramping up is becau

i served as governor during the clinton administration. i worked with her when she was a senator. i worked with her as secretary of state. i trust hillary clinton. i believe she is the most experienced person best able to do the job as president. that's why i'm supporting her and, again, i think we're going to see a lot of partisan attacks. we're going to see a lot of accusations go back and forth, but i want to elect the person who i think is most capable of doing the job as president, and that's why i'm supporting hillary. >> but just to follow up, some of these attacks on the handling aren't partisan in the sense they are coming from fellow democrats. >> well, again, i've been a democrat for a long time and i can tell you that sometimes my biggest critics are members of my own party, so people are always going to criticize. you can't please everybody. i think she needs to continue to work hard. she needs to point out why she's different than her opponents, what she thinks we need to do in this country to make sure the middle class has opportunities again to make sure we invest i

next.,, >>> the giants and dodgers burning the midnight oil and their longest game since the clinton administration 12:49 adrian gonzalez delivers a walk-off hit in the 14th inning. dodgers, a four and a half game lead over the giants, longest game between the two rivals since 1995. five hours, 29 minutes. 42 of the 50 eligible players were used and the two staffs combined to throw 452 pitches. i had two cold ones to watch the finish. game two won't last as long with a battle of aces tonight. madison bumgarner against greinke. 5-0 with a 1.43 e.r.a. in august. other notes, angel pagan has been activated from the disabled list and will bat lead-off. newly acquired alejandro de aza will play right field and bat sixth. i'm wondering if bumgarner can play offensive line. jim tomsula is hopeful he's found the right combination. returning starter joe staley and alex will be joined by marcus morton, jordan devy, and eric peers when the regular season begins. rather than talk about them as five guys, tomsula thinks of the then as one. >> offensive linemen, they move like a herd of cattle. any group of offe

since the internet was invented in this country, the administration at the time, clinton administration, vice president gore, ira magaziner. i can speak of many people who are heroic in creating the original foundation of what government and public policy would look at this new thing called the internet. >> including michael powell, by the way. >> including me at the fcc. and there was a recognition of some amazing things. in essence the national ethos was let entrepreneurs, innovators and engineers and everyday people determine the growth, path and evolution of this phenomenal infrastructure and let's not adopt a model of a central regulator who is a set of attorneys and bureaucrats acting not from the bottom up as the internet works but from the top down as we try to do in the history of the phone system. that was a major national commitment, and it has been the ethos that has governed the policy of the united states for the last 20 years. written and enshrined in the statute itself. it is the national policy of the united states for the internet to grow unfettered by state and federa

and he was just at the end of a clinton administration. and he ran into somebody who was part of-- part of the incoming administration. and he basically said, the bush 43 administration, and he said the most important thing you can do is fix fannie mae and freddie mac, that's the most important thing you can do. >> one of the really interesting things is that these companies are widely perceived as democratic companies. but it was actually under the clinton administration that larry summers, treasury first took them on in an official way back in the 1990s. and they, took them on meaning summers began to criticize them publicly and questioned the u.s. government's ties to these companies, therefore weakening them. and it became a huge political brouhaha in washington back in the late '90s. but i think it's fascinating that it was a democratic treasury secretary who first started trying to reduce their power. >> rose: so what are you going to do? what is the solution? >> the solution we think is actually to restore fannie mae and freddie to w

the presidency. he was defeated by one guy named bill clinton, and i don't think was -- got into the clinton administrationho knows what the motives are or why he said what he said. melissa: alan colmes, i think that democrats are coming out and trying to knock the legs out from under hillary clinton right now, while it's still relatively early, they smell blood in the water, want to see somebody else come in. they think she's weak and sending people out whether it's leaking to the "new york times," you look at stories we saw this week about her doing the focus group to test her apology before she did it. that came from someone inside her campaign and also from a democrat. most of the really deadly blows are coming from other democrats. what do you make of that? >> may be so, may be individual people gone rogue. i don't think it's coming through the democratic party, and i think her, that old mark twain line, reports of my death are greatly exaggerated. the so-called liberal media has not been pro-hillary, certainly the "new york times" hasn't, and most people who are not paying attention now, if you like

if you look at recent administrations, both republican and democrat if the clinton administration hadork, you know, i worked on north korea human rights issues in the bush administration, we were trying to make life harder for the regime but chris hill wins with another february 13, 2007 agreement. it was a huge amount of sanctions relief, of economic assistants. so, you know, they see a new administration that's on its last year, the obama administration, one that's willing to make deals with countries that break nuclear agreements and as i say, wants a piece of the pie. charles: well, as long as north korea is run by this lunatic, a dictator, a string of lunatics, kim jong-un's grandfather. don't they present a clear danger to the world that maybe one day that he believed the president they would be crazy enough to actually launch one of these nuclear weapons? >> there is that risk and of course they have been getting better at rocket launches. we tend to make fun of them when, for example, their first nuclear test wasn't that good or their rocket test failed but look at our own roc

i should disclose my children's father was in the clinton administration. with her loves her, she's a lovely person in person, but i object to her war mongering, i object to her endorsing the police state, i object to her buying into hyping terrorism as a way to build the military industrial state, who are her donors, she's not my girl, sorry. >> wow! naively i would have believed you would have looked at this as an opportunity to break that glass ceiling? >> i would rather vote for a man or woman who represents a peaceful world -- i'm not the kind of feminist who believes in sexism. just because they share my gender doesn't mean they're the best person for the job. >>> what do you think? tweet me during the progr program @smerconish. and i'll read some of the best and worst a little later. >>> this undercover cops unprovoked tackle of james blake was the latest in a series of bad news for the latest in the nation's police forces. i'll ask ray kelly the man who ran the nypd after 9/11 what he thinks. remember when we used to raise the roof, diane? oh, quiet

. >> joining us with reaction is former adviser for the clinton administration, ambassador nancy sodenberg state department and intelligence agencies have stated, quote, that they believe that isis and al qaeda will attempt to infiltrate the refugee population in an attempt to get to both europe and here. that means the likelihood is that they very well could get here. why would we take one person and put one american at risk based on what they're telling us is likely to happen? >> well, first of all, they're already doing that. we've had them trying to get americans to go over there, some americans have gone over there. the issue of the refugees, you have to remember, we have the best screening process in the world. and i am confident that as we let these refugees into this country -- >> you're confident of that, but i can tell you that -- you can say that, but we've had refugees before, for example, we took uzbeks into boise, idaho, and some were terrorists. excuse me, but my own question is considering they probably have very little documentation, probably don't have a driver 's license

back in the states a few days later i shared as much with the clinton administration. negotiations that ensued over the course of the next year ultimate lit presented arafat with the best land-for-peace proposal the palestinians would ever receive. in the end, they turned it down. i was later told that "arafat simply could not take yes for an answer." 16 years have passed since then, 16 years. another transformative opportunity has presented itself. this time to america and to our five negotiating partners -- the british, the french, the germans, the russians, the chinese, as well as the people of iran. we have a chance to ensure that the iranian hopes of developing a nuclear weapons program are put on the shelf for years, maybe forever. iranians have a chance to bring to an end the crippling sanctions that the coalition we lead has imposed on iran for years. the iranians have an opportunity -- another opportunity. that is to shed their status as a pariah among the nations of this world and assume a position worthy of their history and their culture. over the past two y

i knew because i was in the middle of shutting it down, i knew that we would get the clinton administrationend because there were too many people there who said, yeah, we really need that to pursue a balanced budget. so you don't want to do this all the time. but there are times when it really can matter as long as you can get a win. but you can do it by sending pieces of legislation and having the president veto it like we did on welfare reform. we didn't have to shut the government down, but we got welfare reform through. >> you did shut it down on the issue of balancing a budget with cbo numbers in seven years and you did it. >> right. >> so this is my next question for you. i know your background and record as well as anybody. you have a very impressive conservative record. you were the architect -- >> right. >> -- as the house budget chair of the last balanced budget this country had. you created a surplus with your budget and you fought the president, president clinton at the time, to get it. as governor you inherited huge deficits, huge surpluses -- excuse me, huge deficits, you turn

there or was involved in the history, look carefully at it, the situation we inherited from the clinton administrationresponse to the bombing of the uss cole the year before. >> who has been the mortgage forceful on the dish. >> part of it wash does. >> christie said he'd do it again but the others not so much. >> the dedecision was before 9/11, terrorism was a law enforcement problem. after 9/11 it's a war, and that's the decision we made and that moved us interest the direction of going with these programs and you have to treat that seriously or you're not doing your job as president. >> when you hear -- you have been asked this before -- all those who died in these battle, did they die for the right thing seeing what is healing now in iraq and afghanistan and now in syria? >> people i find most supportive as i get out around the country, and i travel a lot and do things with wounded warriors and so forth -- the people whose opinions i respect the most are the ones who served, who were proud of their service, and felt very strongly that what we did was justified. >> i think when you were advising pr

. >> the former employee also reference an incident that happened in the clinton administration where contractor was hired and they accidentally struck a line with a backhoe and contaminated some water. the supervisor was off duty and had subcontracted the work. the epa pursued criminal charges against him. he was sentenced to six months in prison because he was ultimately responsible for the safety on the site. do you take personal responsibility? >> the only question i would make is the department of justice is the one that pursued criminal action here. >> someone should go to jail for this incident than? >> i am not at all aware that there is negligence or we didn't do due diligence and those of the things the department. >> i would beg to differ. we knew there was a problem and and we should of alerted everybody along these lines. >> what actions with the epa take against a private company who is responsible for spill of this magnitude. >> we would be doing the same thing with that company at this stage in looking to independently identify whether or not there was negligent or cri

that we got a federally balanced buget because we knew there were a number of people in the clinton administration that believed it needed to be done but you have to be very careful when it comes to shutting down the federal government. >> health me put this up because back in 1995 as you point out, when you were chair of the house budget committee you were proud of the facts you took part in a government shut down. here is a much younger john kasich. >> this is one of the best times in our in addition's history because -- in our nation's history because we are fighting over deeply held principled. >> what some people would say that is about money, about the budget, and in this case we are talking about what planned parenthood is doing to fetuses. >> no, i understand, but here is the thing. we suspect that if we did fight and not just about the budget but our children's future and debt and economic growth, we had a if sense if we stood our ground back then we could actually move a balanced buget forward. in this case, the president made it clear he will not sign it. i am willing to fight all day l

this started in the clinton administration. i was part of a team and we failed. his four years ago. what's important to remember is this is not the first time this has happened. they're trying to put this happy face on -- it's notable, he said the president wants good information. he didn't say he wants exact information. that's what the intelligence commission should be producing. let me be clear on this. there's three areas that have being manipulated according to my sources. when we go and bomb isis, the results of the bombings are being overly emphasized as being successful and they're not. secondly, the actual conclusions of the reports -- some of these things are voluminous. we're talking about inches deep. the actual content may not be changed but the conclusions are. when you read the conclusion, you think everything is good. when you go into the report, things are not as good. and third most importantly -- let me be clear. these are good analysts. they're trying to do their job, be clear concise and truthful in their assessments. when they nominate inform

it started i think in the clinton administration and during the bush of administration and the ugly is most shocking gang rape of two little girls in texas led by an illegal alien. the case went on for about a decade. never, never were illegal immigrants or mexicans mentioned in relation to the main gang rapists and this was the largest number death penalty cases in texas which isn't shy about the death penalty for half a century. it was a pretty big case. there was one article in "new york times" but never did our media mention mexican immigrants much less illegal immigrants from mexico until they get is the fact that the lead rapist was a mexican who tried to spring them from the death penalty. it was the first time 10 years later and the full description of the first mention i found was in a texas case. that's how you can describe one of the most brutal gang rapes i have ever read about so the point of the anecdotal evidence proving the crime point is to prove our media is shockingly corrupt and lying to you and you were going to have to demand information about immigration that we

federally balanced budget 'cause we kind of knew that there were a number of people in the clinton administration that believed it needed to be done, but you've got to be very careful when it comes to shutting down the federal government. >> well, let me -- let me put this -- because back in '95, as you point out, when you were chair of the house budget committee, you were very proud of the fact that you took part in a government shutdown. here is, forgive me, sir, a much younger john kasich. >> this is one of the best times in our nation's history, because we are fighting over deeply held principles. >> but governor, what -- some people would say, look, that was just about money, that was just about the budget. in this case, we are talking about what planned parenthood is doing to fetuses. >> i understand. but here is the thing, chris. we really suspect that if we did fight, and first of all, not just about the budget, our children's future, about economic growth, but we had a pretty good sense if we stood our ground back then that we could actually move a balanced budget forward. i think in thi

but -- and i should disclose my children's father was in the clinton administration, and everyone whoher loves her and she's a lovely person, there's no question about that, but i object to her warmongering and endorsing the police state. i object to her buying into hyping terrorism as a way to, you know, build the military industrial state who are her donors. i mean, she's not my girl, sorry. >> wow, okay. i naively believed you looked at this as an opportunity to break that glass ceiling. >> i mean, i would rather vote for a man or woman who represents a peaceful world. that's not the kind of feminist who believes in sexism. just because somebody shares my gender doesn't mean they represent me. i want the best person for the job. >> naomi, thank you so much as always. >> whythank you, michael, a pleasure. >>> tweet me @smerconish and i'll read the best and the worst a little later. >>> up next, this undercover cop's unprovoked tackle of u.s. tennis star james blake was just the latest in a series of bad news for the nation's police forces. i'll ask ray kelly, the man who ran the nyp

i went back and did some checking that during the clinton administration, michigan beat ohio state six out of eight times, since bush has been there ohio state has won four out of five times, i need a democratic administration because my family, my brother rick and i we just can't take the heartbreak of these ohio state losses anymore. >> all i can stay say is go box. >> 's what we will and on that. >> a signature feature book tv is our all day coverage of book fairs and festivals from across the country with top nonfiction authors. here's our schedule. >> beginning this weekend we are live from from the 15th annual national book festival from our nasals capital. near the end of september we are in new york for the brooklyn book festival celebrating its tenth year. in early october, the southern festival of books in nashville. the weekend after that we are live from austin for the texas book festival. near the end of the month, we will be covering two book festivals on the same weekend. from our nation's hard is the wisconsin book festival in wisconsin, and the boston book festival. at

glass-steagall was repealed under the clinton administration in 1999, robert reich. >> bernie sandersht, we have to reestablish glass-steagall. amy: explain why it is so important. 1929, thehe crash of united states set out to prevent that kind of crazy risk taking by the banking sector that led to the crash. we are not talking bout 2008, this is 1929. one thing we did was separate commercial banking from investment banking so peoples deposits -- ordinary savings of ordinary people would not be used for gambling operations by the investment banks. we ought to maintain that. that is one of the reasons we got into trouble again. we also need to bust up the biggest banks. bernie sanders understated the reality. the five biggest banks. they used to have 10% of the total banking assets back in 1990. now have 44% of total banking assets in this country. they are far too big to fail. they are so large that just because of their political clout and their scale, they are gaining more and more market share of the entire banking industry. that is dangerous. it is dangerous for the economy and da

the clinton foundation. the state department -- the obama administration barred from getting an official position, but it looks like they were communicating secretary of state clinton and syd bloomenthal. he has been barred from the administration. he is basically running an off the grid foreign policy -- working for the clinton foundation. also has other private clients while he is advising hillary clinton on what to do in various hot spots around the world. all of his potential conflicts have not been vetted, but, again, it undermines her original story. she originally said no classified data. we learned halves classified. we originally heard she was just largely receiving stuff unsolicited. we see her egging on syd bloomenthat will. keep the notes coming. bill loves them. her story has really collapsed. >> we also know that -- we learned this week that the fbi is investigating whether or not foreign intelligence services may have hacked or tapped in otherwise to her private account, which would be a major development and show that she has exposed secrets to outside. >> well, exactly. the state department re
