on the foot -- on the far right, you have thurman who walked out of the democratic convention because a young man introduced and passed a pro civil rights plank. so the conventional wisdom was, this would hurt truman. he would lose votes on the left, he would lose votes on the right. in fact what it did was, it made. trim and a man in the middle. neither thurman or wallace turned out to have anywhere near the impact it was believed it would have. >> the economy at the time, what is it like? >> the economy is truman's great strength. as i say, record employment. more than that, what he did very shortly in his campaign, he does to thomas e. dewey what he did to the republican congress. the fact of the matter was, a democratic president riding the crest of prosperity in the fall of 1948 could point a finger at the republican congress and in the fact suggest people. truman was not bashful about doing it. if you return republicans to complete control of the white house and congress, you can expect to see a return to the economic policies that produced the great depression. it was not that

this is michael thurman. he's the ceo of dekalb county, he said it's diverse area.x, a big immigrant aycommunity. hehe is worried about a severe undercount. take a listen to him. >> the best, clearest example as to why the census is so important, as to why every resident should be counted is look no further than the cares act dollars that are being distributed across this nation. undercount in the census results in underfunding by one of the most challenging diseases we face. hansi: -- amna: that concern we heard from mr. thurmon, how ique is that? hansi:th you hea a lot from a lot of places around the country, we're in the middle of an unpredictab pandemic, a historic hurricane season. we don't know what these next few weeks argoing to, what's going to happen and whether or not census bureau worker doorknockers were already out there trying to reach those households have not participated yet. what new challenges may be coming their way already? the census workers that i've been talking to. they say they're having trouble with the iphones that they've been issued to

reached the senate floor in september 1970 and there it is greeted by a filibuster led by strong thurman, sam ervin and other southerners with a couple of midwestern republicans thrown in. we can talk later a percentage of using a filibuster which required two-thirds vote to override was odd because to prove and in it he also new to two-thirds votes of southerners wanted to get two chances to block it. it did block it. the advocates of reform never reached the two-thirds mark in the senate. the vote was heavily regional, 78% i think it is of senators from outside the south voted in favor of reform or foreclosure, and similar percentage of southern senators voted against. that was the time in the 20th century when we came closest and in effect it was killed by a southern filibuster. >> back to the point we were talking about before, about how race was critical in that filibuster wasn't for show. speaking of reform, so there is now a discussion again electoral college reform. we don't know exactly what impact it will have in the 2020 election. i'll come back and ask that in a few minutes,

trent lot says a stray word or two complimenting strum thurman, ends his career. have people on tv that have said far less than what donald trump said last night, ended their career. donald trump, i guarantee you, anybody on television compared the killing of a black man seven times to missing a 3-foot putt, they'd lose their job by the end of the day. if a governor said that, a university president said that, if you had a ceo saying, boy, that low income housing in suburbs, white women are going to be in trouble and crime is going to go up, they would lose their job. the board would vote them off by the end of the day. a high school football coach if he or she said such things would lose their jobs by the end of the day. but donald trump is still president of the united states. >> so let's take a look at really a stark contrast between vice president biden and president trump. yesterday biden had a speech, the question is should he do this every day or is this measured disciplined approach where he steps out like this more effective? there is a stark contrast bet
