smart of republicans to come together with democrats and say this is very undemocratic in your process simply seeing it voters, we are just going to negate what you said by voting and decide for you and they do have the chance, the superdelegates do to take back their votes and to switch their minds in july at their convention, but that's a big if. neil: important i grant you superdelegates are not obligated to vote along the line of hillary clinton for hillary clinton, but when i saw the breakdown in new hampshire that they were even. walking away with equal numbers. >> 15 apiece. neil: that's bizarre because i was there, i saw it, he won by a country mile. what's going to happen in other states where it might be close? is he going to get any reward for that? >> going ahead to south carolina and nevada when you're looking at those superdelegates as well, you're seeing them go in favor of hillary clinton. regardless whether or not bernie sanders has a good showing in those states. polls show he's on the cusp, where he has to close a wide gap with her. if he is able to pull out a win an

but having six delegates decided by coin toss just feels undemocratic. i think the candidates should share them. okay, delegates? you'll spend thanksgiving with bernie and christmas with hillary. and they will trade off every other weekend, and here is the best part. you will have two racecar beds! the important thing to remember iowa voters, it is not your fault. they both love you equally, and you'll get lots of attention. at least until the new baby arrives. meanwhile, on the republican side, one man trumped them all with huge turnout that g his base, you're fired up, ted cruz. and cruz's victory means everyone's talking about one thing, donald trump. trump came in second with 24%. but this future president billionaire donald trump. he is a winner. there was no way he would just humbly accept second place. donald, come out with guns blazing! >> we finished second, and i i'm just honored. i am really honored. >> stephen: who are you, and what have you done with donald trump's body?

president with 342 days remaining in office has about him now the air of an infallible emperor as his undemocraticct becomes more menacing, it seems to our way of life ever day, our government and future as well. his decrees rival those of a despot. extending the power of the executive beyond any fancy of our founders, abusing his power, issuing fiats whether on the epa, border, illegal immigration or trade or nuclear agreements with iran. a treaty by any other name refusing to enforce laws and defiance of our constitution, and our national interests, while an acquiescent congress and senate look on and do little and nothing that matters. but it does matter what our president is doing. he's in california tonight. he's there taking 1.8 million acres of land and making it, well, national monuments. nationalizing, if you will, these lands. and his action brings a total land and water that this administration has taken unilaterally to approximately 265 million acres, far more than any previous president. he's preparing to do even more in the months he has remaining in office. one of the areas, the oba

[ shouting andcreaming, being dragged to the paddy wagon. a scene of wild disorder, on this, the night of a presidential nomination to this democratic convention. >> it was a police riot. i had never seen that before in my life. i had never seen groups of uniformed policemen going after civilians. there were pools of blood on michigan avenue. >> the whole world is watching, the whole world is watching, the whole world is watching. >> the whole world is watching, chants the crowd. >> with george mcgovern as president of the united states, we wouldn't have to have gestapo tactics in the streets of chicago! [ applause ] >> did you see what was happening downtown? >> yes, i saw it with this television set. >> do you think this is going to cost the democrats the election, this, what's happening here in chicago this evening? >> i don't think there's any question. i think not only the party, but the country is split in half. i think they'll veer away from this dissension. >> thank you very much, shirley mc

jiening us with more monica crowley and the author of "undemocratic" the expanded paper back versionomes out on tuesday for the american center for law and justice jay secula. both of you have been on the story in a big way. we have followed this in a big way. remember on friday darrel issa former house committee compare man the fbi would like to indict huma abedin. if comey and the fbi recommend they move forward with indictment and they don't, that is a bigger problem than if she is indited. >> you have the director of the fbi, the agents put together a case they are developed what is called a criminal reference letter that is reviewed by the director. the grand jury should be em panelled or indictments should issue. if the attorney general was to dismiss it if he were to make that recommendation and she just says no or it comes down from the president we are not going to go there. the president runs a risk of a legacy issue. you have serious senior career fbi agents, lawyers walking out. the reaction would be strong. national security interests reach the legal of the fbi director.

it is undemocratic and they will be outraged and there will be real trouble in the party if superdelegates change their vote. they can always do so. >> guch ijuch jeb bush will campaigguch willgeorge w.bs brother. >> probably they weren't enthusiasts for the war in iraq, they remember the financial crisis and most of all, george w. bush supported immigration reform. that phrase is a phrase of cursing among republicans in south carolina. i'm not sure george w. bush is going to be treated as a hero by south carolina republicans. >> we will watch. bill snyder thank you so much. >>> sure. >> money and the 2016 campaign, some candidates call for campaign finance reform but is it really possible to take big money out of this process? that's tomorrow night at 8:00 eastern time. coming out of this broadcast, the pope's visit to mexico. and the porter ranch gas leak is capped for now. we'll take a look at how big a problem gas leak is inflation wide. >> an historic first today in havana. pope francis met with patriarch karil. the first time the heads of the roman catholic and russian orthodox churc

you can say that's undemocratic, in a small sense it is. in the smaller sense, it isn't.ecause it's the american people who gave us that power. it's the american people that said know, there's some things wes ear not going to let future legislators to do even if they want to do that. and we're simply applying that judgment of the american people over time. >>> right now on justice, mourning an icon of the supreme court. justice antonin scalia dead at 79. tonight, i'm joined by those who knew him as we look back at the man who left his park on the nation's highest court. >> i think things are better as far as the supreme court's jurisprudence is concerned by my likes. they're better today than what they were 26 years ago. it's all right. >>> breaking tonight, the leading conservative voice on the nation's highest court is silenced.

the superdelegates, it's the most undemocratic thing when you have been in the process. the voice of the people is basically being, we trust you bought. that's what the democratic leadership is saying with superdelegates. >> jon: speaking of trust, hillary clinton has a problem with something like 60 percent of americans saying they don't see her as honest and trustworthy so does bernie sanders naturally become the beneficiary of those people who don't necessarily find the former secretary of state honest? >> i think bernie sanders is in a lot of ways the left-hand version of donald trump whether you like what he's saying or don't like what he's saying, at least you get the sense that he's being straight with you and that is something hillary clinton lacks. i would agree with evan that i think so far a lot of the delegate count has been a joke. i think evan saw the news, three weeks ago we had the iowa caucus where hillary 11 recent on the coin toss. she got her clock cleaned in new hampshire and walked away with the same amount of delegates thanks to this concept of sup

. >> you sads it's undemocratic and fundamentally unfair? correct, ben?fair. >> i think it's unfair for the nominee potential to be decided by something other than the voters of the democratic party. >> all right. >> i just analyzing, but you know, it's a -- this is politics. we're here to talk politics. it's an interesting political play. >> superdelegate, they want clinton back in '08. do you think hillary clinton risks losing the support among superdelegate it is there's this type of challenge, if there's this type of grass roots energy? is there something -- >> i'll put it in a different way, which is this is the bigger challenge for bernie sanders is he's got to overcome this big institutional lead. the difference about '08 was barack obama and hillary clinton basically split the superdelegates. so that wasn't -- it was a tie. whatout want to do is hold those superdelegates in place and get enough popular support to overwhelm it. this time though bernie sanders is so far behind in the i understand stugal support he's got to have an upsurge from the p

that's the part of it that makes it feel a tad undemocratic, that you can gain the system that way. > talk about that a lot and i wouldn't tell you it doesn't happen, the 1,of 81 i have been in lots of caucuses in my life i have never seen that happen. i know it does but mostly what happens -- you are talking about viability. >> right. >> we get into our corners, come in, hear speeches from the candidates and get into your corners and talk with your people you are for this person, with this candidate, if one of the candidates doesn't have 15% that candidate needs to go to another candidate, but really what that sparks is a great conversation about the differences between the candidates, the similarities, who really that person would have gone on the line with, sometimes there are some difference in that, but that's typically what happens. this is your friends and neighbors. typically it goes pretty iowa nice. >> okay. iowa nice. what about turnout, do you have any predictions? we just had the ceiling and the floor. what do you think? >> i like the ceiling and the floor. i do think it'

was that the citizenry is smart enough to dump the wrong views, the erratic views, ones that are undemocratic. we could then go into a rep on the current republican nominee but we are not going to go that way. [laughter] nonpartisan basis, right. >> let's stick to brandeis. as you describe it -- >> i can do that on a nonpartisan basis. >> brandeis is making the argument about the importance of free speech on a non-person basis because he's talking about the value of dissent. you saying that the citizens have access to the best arguments on both sides, they can educate themselves and make them cells ready for the duties of democracy. that's what he says the best response to bad speech is kind of speech and that's why comes up with the most speech protected test in history of all time, although madison and jefferson in the virginia and kentucky resolutions had a vision as well when you sit speech can only be bad if it is intended to unlikely to create imminent violence. extraordinary principle not should by any european democracy today became enshrined in the american constitution when the supr

15 local time, and that goes back to what chris hayes was talking about some people think it's undemocraticf you have to race to vote and get in your preference group in time to get back to work so you don't get in trouble, some people might think that's a little suspect. >> yeah, but it looks like it was written by harry reid so that -- or somebody of like mind politically so that people who do have tough shifts during the day get to get a break from work even getting an hour is kind of -- i'm kind of amazed that employers give them an hour to leave their slot machines or crap machines or concierge desk to vote in a presidential election when they are getting paid to work at a casino. >> reporter: i think that speaks to the power of the unions in the hotels, chris. >> yeah. >> reporter: as you know we've talked about all day long the culinary union 57,000 strong, you know, while they're not endorsing in this election, is, in fact, you know, allowing their members and encouraging their members to go out and participate. they're just not saying like they did last time we endorse barack obama

would not just be wrong, it would be undemocratic. on the diplomacy, the idea that other european countries would be realize to start a second negotiation is for the birds. many are under pressure for what they have already agreed. then there is the legality x i want to spell out this point for the house carefully, because it is important. if the british people vote to leave, there's only one way to bring that about, and that is to trigger article 50 of the treaties and begin the process of exit. finish and the british people would rightly expect that that should start straightaway. let me be absolutely clear about how this works. it triggers a two-year time period to negotiate the arrangements for exit. at the end of this period, if no agreement is in place, then exit is automatic unless every one of the 27 other e.u. member states agrees to a delay. $and we should be clear that this process is not an invitation to rejoin, it is a process for leaving. sadly, mr. speaker, i have known a number of couples who have begun divorce proceed

they say this process is entirely undemocratic. they do not seem to be doing that. they could change their votes as blake mentioned at the dnc convention and hopefully if bernie sanders is calling off strong winds, maybe we will see them switch their minds, july. neil: if you are bernie sanders, kent to say, just show that that we showed. we still have 95. >> fighting the establishment. all of these other establishment figures. this is what we are fighting against. we are fighting against insiders. i think that is important for him to propel this message forward. we are disenfranchising voters. coming out and saying voters should have the ultimate say. simply not true. just look at the superdelegate. >> the same party that made a big stank in the 2000 election results. i don't know. >> only when it works in their favor do they not complain, neil. neil: it is always a pleasure. we are monitoring south carolina. we have job bush with his mom there. when she steps to the podium, we will go there. donald trump. guy link back a little to criticism. pope francis. backing

they call it undemocratic. if we look at the numbers, hillary clinton has secured a backing of about 451 of those super delegates. that's compared to only 19 that had publicly committed to bernie sanders. it's an interesting phenomenon in the democratic party but has a huge impact on who will take the general election in the democratic party. >> could make the different at this point. >>> hillary clinton goes into saturday's primary with a big enforcement, nevada senator harry reid is backing clinton. the senate minority leader is -- >>> on the republican side, ted cruz picking up a big endorsement, texas governor the highest ranking official to support the cruz campaign, both men working together for more than a decade in that state. >>> republicans facing off again in another debate in houston but donald trump is already taking heat, his closest tom pelt tories are getting in early jobs. >> you can't just say the way some people in this race have said, you'll probably know what i'm to us in a moment, you can'

if we think it's so undemocratic the way it is now, electing someone permanently with low voter turn-outterim supervisor will be taking votes of the board. they are not just going to the phones but go to the meetings and they need to be accountable. and if that person succeeds in the future election, those votes count. and if someone is not to run in the future, you can vote how you want. there is no recourse or accountability there -- thank you, supervisor cohen. and i mentioned the difficulty of finding appointees in a period of time and to give up a job. or someone is unemployed and needs a temporary position and the staffing for that. i feel that we have a system in place that tries their very best to make sure if there is an appointee. depending on the situation, there could be three scenarios. someone gets to run in an election that is coming up soon and would be the normal election cycle anyway. or some time between 120 days and one year after the vacancy. again there are different scenarios where this can happen and i think -- i just would at this point then like to duplicate the

forged video and the world's largest democracy and everything, everything slapped against him are undemocraticnature and we share with saudi arabia and sudan and this is a travesty of justice and this constitution of india gives us the right to free speech but unfortunately over the last couple of months we have seen increasing intelligence to anybody who has been critical of the present day disposition. as prime minister of the country mr. modi should have spoken out against a student who has been trashed in public by allegedly his party members so the fact they refused to speak on this issue especially at a time when this is increasing tolerance the buck stops at his door. >> reporter: criticizing prime minister modi for not weighing in on this case. this morning bolivi, an and whether to amend the constitution so he can return in 2015 and exit poll says he is trailing by 2% and the government not conceding and last night it called for patience saying the vote is still too close to call. under oath on the record. >>> bill cosby loses bid to postpone a deposition of sexual allegations against

it's extremely undemocratic to me. betweenng to be a race hillary or mr. trump. they have their own agenda to take over the country more than ever. it's desperate. there is no right future for this country. it's corrupt. host: that was paul in new york. mason is in maryland. caller: thank you for taking me. you see these republican candidates. none of these people are worthy of being president of the united states of america. you can tell from my accent that i am a migrant. politics youind of would see in third world countries. they do not speak to substance or policy. about personality. stage, you take a bottle of water and throw it. are these people the ones who are going to read -- lead the world? the mostrepresenting civilized country in the world? are these people the world should look up to? people come to america. we look to america as the enemy of civilization. mason is talking about the tone of the campaign. people on twitter are expressing their thoughts as well. you can put your thoughts on twitter. we also have a facebook page as well. heidi is in con

sparkingrity is backlash among sanders supporters say it's decidedly undemocratic and rate -- rate inavor of clinton. they are contacting superdelegates who publicly endorsed clinton and her message is not always subtle or welcome. "i'm sick and tired of them." it's very aggravating to be bashed on my own computer by people who it's probably the first time voting. i have been in the trenches since i was 20. superdelegates have been part of the democratic party's process since 1984. they automatically attend the convention and support the candidate of their choice, regardless of whom primary voters back. they are members of congress, party officials and members of of the democratic national committee. superdelegates, about 30% needed to claim the nomination. scott, you are still with us. what do you think about that? caller: it's quite an interesting thing with the superdelegates. i understand they might have been in the trenches, but the have a true democratic election, and hopefully they will listen to both sides. hopefully they will because we are not anointing somebody who was alre
