the wisconsin cases one that i think is a good one, not because it is good for democrats -- although i think this one is using democrats -- because the vote came out advantageous overwhelmingly for democrats, and yet republicans picked up scores of seats. and so that is the case that went to the supreme court. i think justice kennedy is going to be the swing vote on this. the kinds of questions he asked in oral arguments indicates he is looking for a standard to apply to all these cases, not just wisconsin. and so i do not know what he is , going to do. i hope he votes to do something about putting independent judges in charge of our redistricting and our census every 10 years. let independent people put it forward, not political leaders in the democratic and republican party in state legislatures. rep. buyer: i can speak personally about remembering. earlier, when i mentioned impeachment in 1999, 1999 had a huge impact in my life. timeframe was the trial of impeachment in the u.s. senate. fall, the governor of montana and i ended up in florida to do the florida recount. and you do th

about 11 years before radio was invented, the university at wisconsin said i want the university to be in every home in the state. of thebecame the motto idea, the boundaries of the campus are the boundaries of the state. that was the idea of extending those resources. at that time, the first broadcast east of the mississippi by an educational station was information to farmers, weather information, 51% literacy rate at that point in wisconsin. sidebar, i have a radio partner and we are working in zambia to improve the weather and farming information where the literacy rate is 61%. anyway, that idea continued. the beginnings were there. i started my career in public an engineer in 1952 working through my way and the university of wisconsin. that is where my roots are. it was known for innovation and audio invitation and so on. plays.e producing radio it was that experience that informed me. i left there and was in buffalo. in partloped a center of the black community where 27 hours a week came from that source. at that time, i was helping give thereto folks that had -- were no people o

a guy who was a party functionary, before that a term or so in the wisconsin legislature. i want to remind you, whenever you see reince although he is out of politics right now, always keep y in mind reince priebus is without the vowels, rncprbs. [laughter]. do not like at him without thinking about that. [laughter]. then you bring in steve bannon andin steve miller as your top actors. then you bring into your cabinet goldman sachs executives and business types who never served in governmentwh before. then with the 600 or so top policy positions, senate confirmable, that matter, deputy secretaries undersecretary is assistant secretaries heads of bureaus and heads of agencies, a year into the presidency more half unfilled, not even nominated for positions, including key ambassadorships. when you have a president who goes to asia with the threat of a nuclear conflict with north korea, and we do not have an i am ambassador in south korea, and you don't trust anybody else, that is cacocracy defined. secretary of state hollowing out the diplomatic corp., it will take decades to
