i think he has saulgt to find directions forward that is unintrusive to businesses. you know, i think, again, the affordable care act is one of them and the jobs act is one of them. one of the ironies of the keystone pipeline issue is that if he did not have to worry about how approval of the pipeline would disenchant his base, he would have approved it days ago. >> he just couldn't take the headline risk with the environmental groups saying i'm going to green light this thing and they are very concerned about the watershed.

i think he actually has sought to find directions forward on policies that are as unintrusive towards business as possible and still true to his liberal agenda. i think the affordable care act is one of them, and the jobs act is one of them. one of the ironies of the keystone pipeline issue is that if he did not have to worry about how approval of that pipeline would disenchant his liberal base, he would have approved it ages ago. i'm fairly confident that within days, if not minutes of him being sworn into his second term, he will approve that. >> he just couldn't take the headline risk with the environmental groups saying i'm going to green light this thing. they're very concerned. i think deep down, greg is absolutely right. the president would just let that thing go and create the jobs that could be created through it. you know, it obviously was a big political risk to do that. there was a lot of opposition lined up among the big green groups. the anti-business argument gets thrown around a lot. i don't think he's anti-business. he doesn't have the mind set of a, you know, private

. >> this will be in an unintrusive way the safest commercial space any place in the world. >> reporter: is one world trade center stronger that on the twin towers that stood before? >> oh, by far. >> reporter: it now stands 104 stories high, and it will be topped out in the next few weeks. >> ultimately 1776 feet. >> very symbolic number. >> yes, and not accidental. >>> all right. poppy harlow joining us live now. poppy, if it is topped out in the next few weeks, i'm sure that there is great relief, and great trepidation, and just real exuberance, too, for the many people who have worked on that structure. >> it is the culmination, fredricka, of so many years of hard work. frankly speaking, a lot of bickering politically, financially, and the president today, he is going to be here around 5:15 eastern time, and he will get a preview of the topping out ceremony, and that is the word they use in the construction world for when this building reaches the final height. when i was there a few days ago it was 1,300 feet, and you heard it is 1,776 feet, and the president will sign the beam alo
