in new york and they gave me an assignment aaron baker he's a writer for time magazine she was doing a story on about eighteen different woman so she actually found ok you got the names the gian and women for afghan women shelter was looking off. so i share the time and that's how i met a really through aaron baker says so you already knew the story that i knew the stillness to a bit about the story that it's horrible i mean i mean i mean what outlives it's just unbelievable well actually comes from the southern provinces of afghanistan and. it's i think it was twelve or fourteen economy but the detail she was given away to cover a dispute that happened with the family and she was really abused quite badly within her in-laws home and so she decided to run away and she ran to her neighbors thinking she would seek refuge in but they handed her into the police and in afghanistan basically if you are a woman then you run away from your husband you go to jail but she received amnesty and her father came to collect her and took her back her oh ought to be raised has been due to that has to

with me in new york, our friend fareed zakaria of "time" magazine and g.p.s. on cnn. i am pleased to have all of them on this program. if you do what i do, this is a perfect storm. first you have somebody write something, then you have someone respond to it, and then yo have someone come along in "time" magazine and talk about all of them. so i begin with you, drew. make the case that you made as to why you are disappointed wi the leadership of president obamand the significance you believe of narrative. >> i guess i'll start by saying just from that clip that you just played, which i hadn't heard before but i think it's a prime example is that the president blamed the problem on congress. he didn't say... and he blamed the problem on the lack of quote/unquote coress to be able to negotiate in good faith and to compromise. the problem is actually isn't the problem in congress, it's the problem that one side of congress is actually not willing to negotiate and the other side was willing to negotiate away most of its core principles. so that kind of rhetoric may help th

magazine"'s john heilemann. the bbc's katty kay. "the new york times" helene cooper and tim magazine's rick stengel. all of a sudden we have rick perry shaking up both the republican race and maybe the whole she bang. how about this for a notion? that we're looking at 1980 all over again. like ronald reagan, the werner dethroning the establishment, mitt romney in the way reagan pushed aside george bush 41. reagan found a way to play a big debate moment in new hampshire to make bush look too small for the role. >> i am -- for this microphone -- chris: democrats hope barack obama won't be like jimmy carter, whose economic times were so tough they got reagan elected and reagan's far right views weren't even in focus. could the same be true for rirk perry? if he were the republican nominee, would his controversial views get ignored? >> i'm not real sure you're a bunch of right wing extremists, but if you are, i'm with you. >> john is this what the republican parties wants? a guy wo -- who kids around and embraces the far right? >> certainly i think that the republican party right now is a very it logica

time? so far you have to say no. welcome to the show. with us today, new york magazine's john holman, cynthia tucker, the "new york times's" helene cooper and "time" magazine's richard sten gal. the very fact of president barack obama is a resounding affirmation. two generations later of dr. martin luther king's dream. it was 42 years ago today that dr. king talked about america as a shining city on the hill. that seemed to be coming true two years ago today when barack obama wove that into his speech. >> that promise 45 years ago today brought americans from every corner of the land to stand together on the mall in washington before lincoln's memorial and hear a young preacher from georgia speak of his dream. >> he went on to win 43% of white votes in that election and that may sound low but democrats never win a white majority. bill clinton got 43% of the white votes back in 1996. al gore got 42%, john kerry got only 41% of white votes in 2004. obecause meas' 24% was on the high end. last november's she lacking of democrat -- shellacing of democrats beat a retreat. demo

author rick pearlsteen wrote about this at "time" magazine today, among rumors that he is reading his brilliant book "nixonland." he wrote about how exactly jfk beat nixon in 1960. he said in part because he made richard nixon sweat, literally, over the hard truth that democrats created medicare over republican objections. that the american people love medicare and social security. don't want anybody messing with them. that republicans continually try to mess with them or abolish them, and that democrats are the ones who can be counted on to protect them. so there are two things going on right now in what is effectively the national campaign to either re-elect president obama or to elect a republican to replace him. one is that the president has been proposing a series of small bore job creation judgeds ideas. a couple of the things he talked about this week were wanting trade deals approved. also wanting patent reform. both of those things, just to take two examples, both of those things are directly from the republicans jobs plan. directly from what the republicans have been touting

time magazine once wrote of hurst, quote, no other press lord ever wielded his power with less sense of responsibility. no other press ever matched the hurst press for flamboyance and mass hysteria, end quote. on august 13, 1951 the founder of one of the greatest publishing empires in the world died. with the leader gone, jockeying for power became at once. the first one to fall was davies. she was asleep when hurst died. the hurst organization worked to get the body removed before she woke up. they cancelled the subscription to her copies of hurst example examiner. they were afraid of davies and the power she wielded through her ownership through a huge chunk of her stock. davies never tried to take control of wr's empire. davies was of course excluded from his funeral. and she reassumed her role of the wife of randolph hurst. the family gave sansimien to the state. they kept the road leading up to the castle and the land. but the castle was deeded to the state. after hurst died the family tried to sell it. not surprisingly there were no takers. they eventually had to do some seriou

"time" magazine's deputy editor joins us now. for joining us. >> any time. >> this situation, it's so appalling, but the fact is a lot of people are asking why has not the international community mobilized. we saw the security council finally yesterday issue presidential statement, quote unquote, condemning syria but not a security council resolution. they don't have the votes for that. so a statement is something but it's certainly not going to have great impact on the assad regime. what is the difference between syria and libya, where the u.n. and nato and everyone, including the u.s., moilized. >> several things happened in libya that have not yet happened in syria. in libya, you had rebels who actually seized a large part of the country, drove away the government troops, set up some sort of a transitional government. in libya, you had the neighbors, the arab league, calling for international intervention and you had a vote on the united nations security council that allowed that. in syria, you've had violence but the protests

i want to bring in assistant managing editor for "time" magazine, rona raufar. looking at the cover of the next magazine. you write a lot about the city of great wealth, and how london is burning, but you write here the only surprising thing is that it didn't happen sooner. rona, how do you mean? >> i've been wondering frankly since 2008 when we were going to see this sort of violence. i think it's interesting we've seen it first in the uk. it's positioned perfectly between the u.s. and europe. we've seen the debt downgrade, incredible destruction of wealth, and the divide, which is really what you're seeing. the first onslaught of cuts. from and it's happening now and may happen elsewhere. >> we talked a lot about debts here in the states, they're talking about debt in the europe and our situation in the u.s., it's not pretty. we heard the president fired up, we ahead the s&p downgrade, and all this bickering? washington. we think our situation here in the states seasonal exactly ideal, but you write that europe's is worse, why? >> absolutely. europe's plan a, b

the "new york times" three weeks ago -- "time" magazine three weeks ago reported as a cover story how the constitution is under siege, and "newsweek" about two months ago had a cover story about the failure of americans to understand our government. some very scary statistics. two out of every three graduating high-school students today believe that the three branches of government are republican, democrat, and independent. that is an actual poll. 75% of all americans don't know that religious freedom is protected by the first amendment. 75%. more americans can name the judges on "american idol" than on the supreme court of the united states. what does this mean to us? how did we get here? well, first of all, unless the next generation understands the obligations imposed by the constitution, we are going to have a serious, serious problem. my children can always tell me about their rights, but very rarely tell me about their responsibilities. those responsibilities are critical to our future as a country. the fact of the matter is, if we do not understand the constitution, if our chil
