difference in symptomology, particularly the symptoms that african-americans feel or are willing to admit compared to whites. so there has been some work to lookthe differences there. so the fiscal nature of it so part of it, but there's also some links, a growing body of literature that shows a link between mental health and physical health. a good example is depression and diabetes. we're not quite sure what the connection is. is people are diagnosed with the disease, and then people are depressed or if there's a physiological pathway between that disease and physical depression. so there are a number of reasons why we can see that connection. >> doctor you have done some significant research on fetal alcohol syndrome in the african american community. talk a little bit about that. >> it turns out that fetal alcohol exposure is the leading cause -- or attention deficit hyperactivity, learning disorders, and mild intellectual disability in speech and language problems. those are the four most common problems that children have, and as a result when you -- so i treat black people, and they come in, and i say what brings you? and they say i'm b

we are in extreme case, again, but it provides a view into what i think all white americans need to look at theacy of white religion whatnot. >> katrina, what is your dewolf 's family to brown? , of course,sity based in rhode island. i know one of the dewolfs wrote of brown.ater so it amorwne with an e, is a different brown. john brown was a slave trader and they both ended up in congress and work together to preserve the slave trade, to help protect the rhode island --ve trade and all kind of in cahoots even with president thomas jefferson around some of that. in any case, the economy of rhode island was steeped in the slave trade. it usually shocks people to hear that rhode island was the leading slave trading state in the country, not south carolina were virginia. --or virginia. that leads to the founding of the university and some of the early funds for brown university. >> it is interesting that ruth simmons, the farrar president of brown, -- the former president of brown, wrist african-american president of any ivy league university, and i want to bring greg wilder back into this conversa

the electorate looked like in 2010. and this is what it looked like in 2012 when 58% came out to vote. in the 2010 shellacking, the electorate had fewer african-americans, fewer latinos, and more whites less like america. in short, the 2012 electorate looked kind of like the audience that watches the super bowl, while the 2010 electorate looked more like the audience that watches fox news. the shutdown and debt ceiling fight was a standoff between those two electorates. the big question that will determine the shape and future of american politics, the one that will decide whether we keep having these destructive fights over and over and over again is whether democrats can turn the marginal voters who came out in 2008 and 2012 into the habitual voters who come out in off year elections like 2014. there are signs it may be happening. democratic polling shows that top of the parties in the house are more vulnerable because they backed the shutdown. before that debacle, democrats lacked likely to fall short of winning back the house next year. a lot can change in a year, and more importantly, the president won't be on the ballot in the midterms next year, and he won't be there in 2016 e

the white house feels very much that it has more leverage and polls it up that the white house has more leverage. there's a significant margin when you look at who americans blame, they are blaming republicans far more than they blame the white house. you're going to start to see pressure increase. this weekend there's a little wiggle room. why? the markets aren't open. when you get closer to tuesday when in the u.s. markets open and closer to thursday, we're expected to hit the debt ceiling, pressure mounts and increases exponentially. what gives? if you think of it like a stool, it is the weakest leg, right? and at this point, polls show republicans are the weakest leg. that's why you're seeing the white house kind of feeling that they have the upper hand here over republicans. they're of course getting dinged, too, the president taking a hit in the polls as well, migel. >> giving us all heart palpitations here. thank you very much. >>> she has been standing out there in new york harbor 12 lonely days without any visitors. statue of liberty and other federal landmarks will be reopening, some of them. state of new york says it is losing too many tourist

as the third largest city of the nation and as a very precarious moment in american history where the united states future would look like. >> how did they get in the white house coming to washington and were able to burn the white house? >> it was a mixture of unbelievable american incompetence. really through bold leadership on the part of the british commanders, very veteran accomplished troops. part of it was almost just a guess believe that the relatively small british force would be able to capture the capitol of the united states when they were so far from any major support. they would have to march 60 miles inland in the they were really quite exposed, but the united states had a very small military at the time and as much military we did have it was on the canadian frontier engaged in various futile attacks on canada and the militia the was left behind in virginia and maryland weren't that well trained or equipped to stand up to the veteran british forces that were attacking washington, the poor leadership and a little bit of luck on the part of the british. >> we are we to begin with a call from john and st. clare's sure michigan. you are on bo

the white house thinks they're winning this. they think that ultimately republicans are going to cave. if you look at the polls, the majority of americans are blaming republicans for this. one white house official tells me at this hour they are hopeful. they believe the deal that's coming together in the senate is in line with the principles that they have laid out so there is some optimism at this hour. thomas. >> we'll have to go on optimism right now. i think we're running on optimistic fumes at this point. >> i am for sure. >> ladies, we'll let you get back to work. thanks so much. keep us posted for any new nuggets that you get. joining me right now is republican north carolina congressman robert pittenger. you initially tried to tell your skpit yan constituents that it was a bad idea but you voted for it anyway so now you are going down by not standing up. do you regret that decision? >> well, sir, i said in the summertime at six town hall meetings that i felt like it was a noble effort but an ill-fated strategy. i feel like that president obama would stick by his signature legislation, which he's done. sometimes you need to be ca

the reelection of president obama. look at mike leigh. they all run around as if we have all of these white people around there, but if they're better americans than the rest and we represent them, so what they're saying and it was on hannity last night. we can't wait for round two. they'll keep this on a rotational basis every two months because what they want to do is bring down this government and not just obama care. they want to bring him down. >> we talked about 90 days. >> turmoil. i think what they want to -- they want continual anger. they want to stir up the people in the right. make them hate obama care and use the big money they can get. look at the advertising against obama care. it's 500 million to 75 million in terms of advertising. >> they want to keep pounding this guy and they want to shake him. the president can be aloof and he can be away and not hang out with congressmen. i'm for all of the criticisms, and he came through today. that was a three-pointer. >> this town has to change the way we do business. >> it has to go back to what it was. when you actually negotiated and there are signs of health here. at the republican

the website. they do say some 19 million americans have looked at it and attributing all the problems the website has had to simply volume. it goes much deeper at this point and the white house is certainly admitting that much. you heard the president say that in the rose garden just a few moments ago. >> the problem has been that the website that's supposed to make it easy to apply for and purchase the insurance is not work being the -- working the wait it should be. there's no sugar coating that. people have gotten stuck during the application process and i think it's fair to say nobody's more frustrated by that than i am. >> and the president is distilling it down. nobody agrees with the issues or problems. for the sake of defunding obamacare republicans in congress now turning their attention to the problems that the president has had, the inference being that this is indicative and reinforcing everyone's notion that the government isn't up to running something this large. there are hearings planned as early as this thursday by republicans in the house. del. >> while the president was speaking we did try to log on the the website. we locked on and off four times su

host: the white house, the president have been misleading the american public. look at the headline here -- credibility under fire. obama'ss say that health pledge was too rosy in the white house insists they did not mislead the public about the law. although president obama never mentioned it specifically, his promise referred to people who uninterrupted health insurance coverage dating back inbefore the law's enactment 2010. the president's promises were , it was not a precise enough message. that is in the washington times this morning. jeremy, tampa, florida. caller: how are you doing? host: good morning. caller: i was going to comment on his accountability. not think obama has any accountability. him get-- when i saw into office, i watched him. i have seen him. the things he is doing -- all of the people he put in his cabinets and his administration. i always considered him a liar and a thief. that is what i still believe. around the world, our enemies have been emboldened. us or think iran fears any of our enemies? look what he has done to our military. the dis

charles: we saw it live seestration through the white house, east egg thng, all the things have looked terrific. but so far i thnk that the avage american say tat they have been hit by this government shutdown. this ptial gernment shutdown. >> that is in part because about 80% of what the government does is stitill operating. eople do not oftenties realize -hat tese talks are still going on, medicare, medcaid still being paid, the essential activities fro boder control to the faastill in opetion. agencie thawe are talking out the fund education and commerce are n really vital. in some cases they provide important services, but they ar not very essential in soe cases may be unnecessary. the problem for republicans or not you ha read th wall street journal" poll tody is the public is blaming republicans more than president obama for ths so the scare campaign seems to be working. what is back earlier when you try to scare with the sequester, it backfired because aboutas an essential government service of the president was playing with. things like the faa nd acvities that americans depend on. >> wireless working, i donon't t it? >> think i

is, of course, bad for the president but the american people have even bigger problems and that's what we should really be focused o. the white house is worried about how this looksp.r. standpoint but we should also be talking about the real harm that this health care law is doing for hardworking americans and their families and their jobs and their paychecks. many of them are going to lose their doctors. doctors who aren't included in the insurance plans sold in the exchanges. many are already seeing that their premiums are going up because of all the washington mandates. remember the president and the promises in passing this health care law? that's not what the people are seeing today. one mother told a tv station in allentown, pennsylvania, that when she went to sign up on the web site, she was told her premium would be almost $950 for her family. she said, that's $765 more than she pays now. she told the station, "it would take food out of our mouths to be able to afford this coverage." this is what the president of the united states and democrats in this body have foisted on the american people. people are finding that not just the premiums are going up, ma

american that doesn't work for me. the president, the security agency people are sitting in the white house. they're getting an instantaneous report of what's going on there. what weren't they lookingt? where was the u.s. cavalry to use an american image. where were the people that could have come that tried to get there within however many hours it took to save the lives of the people still living. why weren't they called to do it? i'm going to ask that question until i get an answer. >> well, i think that, you know, the two heroes of the day are glen doherty and ty woods, the two navy s.e.a.l. cia contractors that were taking the initiative that day along with the jsoc or the joint special operations command troops on the ground that noticed, you know, having worked in that military system, noticing that help isn't on the way and took their own initiative to go in and rescue these folks, and you know, largely, most of the americans in benghazi were evacuated, and relatively few lives were lost, other than the ambassador, shawn smith, and the two navy s.e.a.l.s. >> let me ask you, jay newton small, about the politics of this thing. i know it's a hot opportunity for the republicans

charles: we saw it live sequestration through the white house, easter egg thing, all the ings have look terific. but so far i think th the average americanay that they hae bn hit by this government shutdown. this partial government shutdown. >> that is in part because about 80% of what the government does is still operating. people do not oftentimes realize -hat these talks e still going on, medicare, medicaid still being paid, the essentia activities from border control to the faa, still in operation. agencies that we are talking about the fund education and commerce are not really vital. in some cases they provide important services, but they are not very essential in some cases may be unnecessary. the problem for republans or not you have read "the wall street journal" oll tody is the public is blamin republicans more than president obama for this so the scare campaign seems to be working. what is back earlier when you try to scare with the sequester, it backfired ecause about was an esential government service of the present was playing with. things like the faa and activities that americans depend on. >> wireless working, i don't ge

. >> you know, ian, the administration came out, the white house came out today and said look, it is only 5% of americansis happening to. your thoughts? >> i -- my thoughts are that you know, the administration, the president said clearly that if you like your health care, you will be able to keep your health care. if you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor. if you like your hospital, you will be able to keep your hospital. in our case, that is not true. we can't keep our health care, we're not sure if we can keep our doctors, and we're not sure if we can keep our hospital. >> and so if you could say something to the administration on this tonight, what would it be? >> it would be, i would say that we would like to be able to keep the health care we had, mr. president. and if you could change the law to allow that, that would be a positive for us. >> good luck to you, sir, you too, as well, sarah. thank you both so much for being here. >> thank you, megyn. >>> millions left in limbo, not sure what they're going to wind up with for coverage, or if they have coverage at all. they're sayi

american that doesn't work for me. the president, the security agency people are sitting in the white house. they're getting an instantaneous report of what's going on there. what weren't they lookingre was the u.s. cavalry to use an american image. where were the people that could have come that tried to get there within however many hours it took to save the lives of the people still living. why people that were still living? where were they and why couldn't they do it? i'll ask that question until i get an answer. >> i agree. there's some blame on the secretary of defense. our sources say that obama, before he left on that campaign trip, told panetta, you do everything talk save those people. so, i think a lot of people in the military are wondering that were sitting there standing by ready to go, why wasn't the call sent down to send those folks in? but a lot of people need to understand, you know, when you add the cia and the heroes that went on their own, took their own initiative. >> that's what i'm impressed by. you hear about the guys who got in there, grabbed their uniform, grabbed their weapons, got on a plane and were stopped en route. that's unbelievable! like people w

. >> those who support the white house position on this and democrat's position say look, this president of the united states ran on obamacare and the american people voted on this. i know house republicans point to polls show it's unpopular but this president wasn't elected, the presidential candidate ocho boasted to obamacare lost. isn't there losers and winners, don't you have to take the losses and move on? >> anderson, when this bill was originally passed, obamacare, it was passed in a lame-duck session with 80 defeated politicians with no accountability back to the voters. there were problems and glitches in the bill and the president has rightfully postponed some of the provisions of obamacare because they are bad and we would like to work with him to try to postpone other bad things. >> but you're describing like it was passed by criminals in the middle of the night, you called them 80 defeated politicians and they were serving lawfully and passed by the supreme court. >> they are not accountable back to the people -- >> they are. they were elected by the people. i know it was at the end of their term and you would have an end of you

the white house whether or not it's true. >> you've been at that level. >> it can make the american president look desperate. you don't want the president to be demon durs. >> they're the ones under sanctions that need sanctions relieved. i would hope that somebody in the white house through whatever channels we can say this is no way to get off. >> we hear you loud and clear. do you believe the iranians because of pressure of sanctions probably have changed that there could be a change that could lead to to serious negotiations to dismantle? >> i do not think the regime has changed ambitions. i do think the regime realizes those ambitions are perhaps costing the kind of turmoil at home that they cannot tolerate. by all mean test it. remember you cannot leave the iranians with nuclear capability, leave them with the option for nuclear weapons later on. you leave them the about to reprocess and enrich the iranians. >> i want to turn to the government shutdown. you're a republican. what do you make of what this group of conservatives is doing in the house and the president's actions as well? >> as a citizen, i

the floor when obamacare passed, i had made the first call to the american people, and i called you all to come in to washington, d.c., to look at the whites of the eyes of the members of congress and say to them, want with my healthcare you don't. 40,000 of you responded and came to washington, d.c. that created the rise of the tea party, and that created the victory that pulled the gavel out of nancy pelosi's hand in 2010. that was the tea party that did that. the night that obamacare passed, i turned to mike pence on the floor, now the governor of the state of indiana, and i said, mike, we have to tell the american people that we haven't waved the white flag of surrender on socialized medicine. i said somebody's got to introduce the bill to repeal it. he said go for it, michele. i did. i went back to my office, wrote the repeal bill, and i was the first one on the floor the next morning. i introduced the repeal bill. steve king later that day also introduced a repeal bill. we've been fighting ever since. this is consequential, because it is life and death for the american people, and for the american economy. t's worth fighting over. bu

even the white house down to the kathleen sebelius has said it's gotten off to a rocky start. so we decided to look into how much money american taxpayers have paid for this project, ands you can imagine it's hard to get a straight answer because of the government offices that are closed. we found out it seems like the bulk of the money went to a company called cgi that won the contract to build the main part of this web site. that original contract they secured back in 2011, was for $94 million. but since then, health and human services actually paid them more than $328 million, and awarded them nearly $500 million in federal contracts, and keep in mind this is the main developer. there will other companies involved. the government accountability office said back in june that at that time cms has already committed to spend $394 million on the system, and some reports are now putting the total cost at more than $634 million. we did try to call cgi to talk about this but so far no response. >> big numbers. we're ten days into obamacare's open enroll and the government can't tell us how many people have signed up. >> to be insis
