confederates became african brigade wearing the union blue. the proclamation called for the use of black men in stations and other places and vessels of all forts to service to the union. black men had been recruited from military service earlier but the president's authorization brought them officially into the federal courses for confederates, it was incontrovertible proof of lincoln's disregard for rights and their lives. free men press the president and congress to be allowed to enter the fight from its very beginning believing that valor on the battle field would earn them the freedom and rights that had not come to black people by v virtue. like many white americans of the day, lincoln doubted the fighting resolve and ability of black men and its really strange because black men had fought and all of america's wars and done so courageously so why this resistance? we certainly know why. it had nothing to do with the black man's abilities. when pressed by chicago religious leaders to embrace the idea of arming black men he ex pressed his fe

in the industrial midwest, particularly in ohio, he's going to get some union, blue collar people to cross over. and there's a couple of issues like that that he's been taking a general election stands on from the beginning, and i think that's causing a lot of consternation within the republican party elites both whether it's a social conservative, whether it's a trade issue or a neo-con foreign policy issue. i don't want buy his nonsense, though, that he hasn't been thinking about this for three years because what he's putting down took a lot of time. trish: well, you know, back to this free trade issue, because, you know, i'm an economic reporter, so i get kind of jazzed about this stuff. >> sure. trish: you know, capri, he's talking about that something that republicans haven't really -- they want free trade, but part of that has always been, okay, well, you know, we take china's goods in without a tariff. it's okay that they slap a tariff on us. do you think he would actually be able to create a scenario -- i mean, and this would take some really serious negotiation with a lot of

that is going to help trump speak to union workers and blue collar workers and 20 years seen the long- term economic prospects diminish. they look at democrats and republicans and holding them responsible. and you have hillary clinton supporting naftan and tpp that is it a real liability. voters are more concerned if you are outside of washington or inside of washington. >> senator ted cruz did a takedown on donald trump's tariff threats. i am not sure if it was effective or matters. when trump said make america great again, yeah, let's spit out iron and chevy and fords from detroit like we used to. >> i run campaigns for a living and it is brilliant the way the guy talks about that stuff. what about the plan and see the details. your average voter you will have their focus 30 seconds and all you have is a tag line that takes you to a certain point. the unions have credibility and a trusted messenger and historic the way they get the members out. >> ian, does that leave you concerned that union voters and money are going to be allied against who ever the republicans nominate? >> i don

confederates became rose at the site of black men like those in wild's african regained wearing the union blue. lincoln's proclamation called for the use of black men to andison forts and positions to manned vessels of all sorts in service to the union. black men had been recruited for military service earlier, but the president's authorization hastened the effort to bring them officially into the federal forces. for confederates, it was incontrovertible proof of lincoln's disregard for their rights and lives. freeman pressed the president and congress to be allowed to into the fight from its beginning. believing valor on the battlefield would earn them the freedom and rights that have not come to black people by virtue of their birth. they had even offered to provision units of volunteers at their own expense. but like many white americans of the day, lincoln initially doubted the fighting resolve and ability of black men. it is really strange because black men have fought in all of america's wars and have done so courageously. so why this resistance? we certainly know why. it had nothing to

union members, for example. blue collared democrats. donald trump is out there promising to bring these jobs back to america. do you think that he will lose some folks to the republican party? >> quite frankly, i think that we are ready have two donald trump. speaking to some of those less educated people. in my home state of massachusetts, where democrats lost 20,000 voters, i think that there were just people that do not like hillary, that may be maybe the party for another candidate, unfortunately. i think that there are people just looking for something new. i think republicans will as well. trish: is he the harder candidate for hillary to beat? >> i definitely think so. donald trump is a bit more unpredictable. he is more appealing to the moderate. he is already getting democrats and independents to vote for him. i think that that will be harder for ted cruz. i do not think that he will get democrats or independents. trump is definitely stronger they are. trish: thank you very much. congressman darrell isis of california who has en

he says his union is working with a blue ribbon commission on jail reforms. the 23-page sheriffs report was dropped on his doorstep last night, he says. senate's what we want and what clearly the blue ribbon commission has been striving for is to make jail conditions safe for everyone. >> reporter: can you do that with the sheriff and the commission? >> we can but we need to be included in the discussions. >> reporter: the report is now in the hands of the committee and will go to the full board of supervisors next tuesday. it is going to take some time because some of the committee members want to combine whatever the sheriff came up with, with what the blue ribbon commission will propose. and then of course the supervisors will have to figure out a way to pay for all of this. in san jose, jesse gary, ktvu fox 2 news. >>> we are following some developing news right now. an equipment problem is causing a major disruption tonight. the east bay bart service. it is an electrical problem that began around 10:00 this morning between the north concord and pittsburg

union. so i think that blue-collar workers are really going to act independently of what they are told by the union this time so there's only so much the union can do. barring changing their policy entirely. reporter: you think we are seeing that with the so-called reagan democrats going for trump in large numbers? >> without question and i think trump is in a unique position to capitalize on this. i don't see somebody like ted cruz or marco rubio being able to reach across and pull over these predominantly white but spanning all kind of socioeconomic backgrounds. former reagan democrats. i think there's a real opportunity for republicans to grow the party and to pull in affiliated members of the union. it's a remarkable period of history. reporter: do you think that works to the detriment of cruz and rubio? >> you can look at and of the candidates driving these populist narratives. even ted cruz is driving a populist narrative. we are seeing it on the right and left. hillary clinton is trying to but it's less believable given statements she's made in the past and also the fact that she takes

these left of center blue collar union workers, many have voted for donald trump they won't help youeral election. >> let's say you have 50% of people in utah voting for ted cruz. that is not the establishment. that is insults over 50% of party that still not voting for donald trump. neil: but with every progressive contest, donald trump's share, of overall vote, rises. it gets higher and higher. >> i'm not saying he is not going to be the nominee. i don't think that we'll see that until june 7. what i am saying he needs to make steps. neil: new jersey, new mexico. >> this is a 3-way race, two of whom are trying to deny donald trump 1237, they are not running for the win. >> that is crazy, they are not going to get it at the convention. >> who does it go to? if not two who stayed in race 2 gets. >> i'm not a party insider, i don't know. i think if trump getting close could he desers nomination -- deserves nomination. neil: he has skills to close the deal. >> what is he waiting for. >> sick-out of 10 republicans -- 6-out of 10 republicans don't want a contested convention. neil: you h

exception of the immigration question is really a figure of the left or maybe of traditional blue collar unionemocratic views. what he mixes in that that is a kind of a toxic bigotry, eight tread of mexicans, hatred of muslims. the suggestion of the conservatism, quote, establishment, is responsible for a guy there doing everything in their power to oppose, i mean, it not -- it's not a sense sense si cal argument. >> a couple of things, discovery that you're making the republican base doesn't actually care about any of the economic principles that the republican elite has been espousing. they probably never have. but this is now coming out into the open because, again, as i said the package is being split up. the -- the idea that this is about economics really does not hold up in the face of the data. if you look where are the areas where trump has the greatest support, they are not well correlated with economic conditions, they are well correlated with racism. and it really is -- this is the racial enmity, if you like, a big driver of politics in america, the benefit of one party, not the dem

his anti-trade message resonates well with blue collar union workers who feel like they've lost theirkinds of trade deals that hillary's supported in the past. you know, there's big college population. so i think hillary could still win there, but there's a good reason for them to try to lower expectations. >> it wasn't that long ago in 2012 on the republican side that ron paul's people gave a real challenge on the floor. and the way it went down with john boehner was spectacular to watch. look at this for people who've forgotten. >> without objection the previous question is ordered. the question is on the adoption, the resolution, all those in favor signify by saying aye. >> aye! >> all those oppose no. >> no! >> the ayes have it. the resolution adopted. without objection -- >> nominee is decided, the ayes have it. you know, that was always up for debate. and it upset a lot of ron paulites. you wonder if that sort of thing might find its way certainly into cleveland if not philadelphia. >> you know, and donald trump talked about how there would be riots if he wasn't the nominee. i m

you're in paul ryan country here this is blue-collar union. >> right. >> what policies do you think you can work with with speaker ryan on that you would both agree on? >> tell you one policy whether we agree or not i'm going to do if i win, it will be great for wisconsin and for the country and that's trade because our jobs are being sucked away. i have some of the statistics from wisconsin. wisconsin is doing very poorly by the way for those that know. the reason that walker went way down, even though i supported him initially and he thanked me by coming up to my office and handing me a plaque, the reason walker went way down is because when i gave all of the statistics on how badly wisconsin is doing, the jobs that are being taken away, the businesses, the lack of growth, when i gave all of those statistics he couldn't dispute them. i mean they're there. >> -- dispute some of those. >> poe lit toe fact -- i can't care. i get statistics from government agencies. they're perfect statistics. i will be during that first speech. >> do you think he mishandled public union issue? >> i will

this is blue-collar, union. >> right. >> what policies do you think you can work, with speaker ryan onyou both agree on? >> i'll tell you one policy, whether we agree or not, that i'm going to do if i win, and that will be great for wisconsin and for the country, and that's trade. our jobs are being sucked away. i have some of the statistics from wisconsin. wisconsin is doing very poorly, by the way, for those that know. and the reason that walker went way down. and even though i supported him initially, and he thanked me by coming up to my office and handing me a plaque, the reason that walker went way down is because when i gave all of the statistics on how badly wisconsin's doing, the jobs that are being taken away, the businesses, the lack of growth, when i gave all of those statistics, he couldn't dispute them. i mean, they're there. and i'll be -- >> -- dispute some of those. >> well, i don't know what politifact -- i don't care. i get these statistics from government agencies. they're just perfect statistics. so i'll be doing that. i'll be doing that during my first few -- >> do

egos on to say koch industries employ 60,000 employees mostly blue collar and oh know, unionized. are they still evil? >> guest: as your caller may be did or didn't hear, i don't use words like evil to describe these people. i described them as people who have views that are far outside the american mainstream where they are imposing their views on the american mainstream by dint of their huge wealth, spending their fortune. this is simplistic and cartoonish to be talking about evil like that. what can i say? >> host: john rights is dick cheney a criminal and should he be prosecuted? >> guest: there was -- there has been debate even serious debate about whether someone should be prosecuted for the torture of the 9/11 suspects. i don't think -- i am a reporter, a i am not an advocate particularly but i see these as political problems that need to be solved with political answers. these are policy debates to have, they are really important policy debates, i don't think -- i imagine after years of covering politics in washington, if somebody brought charges against vice president che

that's where you have all those blue color union folks. manufacturing now has gone away. they didn't have that chris christie enough or chris christie was able to challenge for people. >> i don't think when reince priebus designed the debate schedule that he envisioned this was the debate the party would be happening this late in the season. i don't think this was a good debate for the matter. it was prrks it's a parallel to him trying to pull the wool over on voters more generally. i don't know that that's going to hold. >> let's play some of that trump university stuff so -- let's play it and we'll talk more about it. >> there's a difference between ple flexibility and telling people whatever they want to hear to get them to do what you want them to did. >> this is a case i would set, from, it was a result of the number of complaints -- >> but it was elevated to an a. i can give it to you. >> that was just some of the exchange. >> i just want to say the debate ended after marco rubio made this entire claim about jum. >> they reasserted that pledge the end. i think it un

democratic nominee is, and say more than 40% of union voters decide to shift over to the republican candidate, especially donald trump has a lot of appeal for blueent going forward? >> most people don't realize that the union movement is dying. it is dying because people don't feel that they need to represent themselves on the job with a third party. they can represent themselves. the second thing that people need to understand is if the democrats stay in power at the presidential level, you'll still continue to have this national labor relations board which has been changing the rules on junior organizing to force people into unions. and actually artificially increase the amount of union m members than what normally happens in a free and fair election. >> president appoints a national labor relations board member. right? >> right. and they set the rules of the game. so they basically supported the umpires who are not playing fair ball. >> we'll see hot new president appoints. obviously probably pretty clear who hillary clinton would appoint if elected. mr. berman, appreciate you coming in. thanks, good to see you on a saturday. all the best, si

. >> she does, what i've seen, michael, blue collar hard working people. labor unionld me there is no question they are switching parties or going to go in november and vote for donald trump. i haven't seen this organic grass roots from democrats and republicans at least here in my part of the state ever in my lifetime. >> and yet, dr. madonna, it's john kasich who not only does well in pennsylvania, which theory could be a swing state but let me show you a national survey of different republican candidates against hillary clinton. she beats trump. she beats cruz. she loses to kasich. k kasich is the only one. kasich is the only one who beats her. >> yeah, these polls will vary. the national polls now and, you know, i've done them in the past are not predictive of what will happen in the fall. one of the problems that this campaign is producing is the high negatives for example, trump's negatives nationally are well above 50%. clinton's negatives are above 50% in the poll that we just did. this is a mean, ugly campaign and it's going to drive the negatives up for both

you when i ran from re-election against a democrat, i received 51% of the vote of union households. i grew up in a blue collar town. i was there with working people. i'm not alarmed with reports like this because there may be crossovers. a lot of these crossovers who come will vote for me. >> a final question. the "wall street journal" says say you win ohio. they specifically mention rudy giuliani banking on florida. if you win ohio, what's next, governor? what other states are you going to win right away? >> we're on the ballot everywhere we can be in the country. we have momentum. people are finally starting to hear my message. we're rising everywhere. we're rising in illinois. we're rising in ohio. we're rising in arizona. we're rising all over the country. we'll run a national campaign. let me tell you at the end we have 1,000 delegates to go. don't be surprised if i go to the convention with the most amount of delegates of anybody that goes to cleveland. >> good to talk to you. >> thank you. >>> next, jeb bush's brother is outfront. he's going to tell me why he is joining the ted cruz campaign. th

bring in blue-collar democrats and -- hillary clinton and unions? >> he likes narrative and attention he was able to say look, i was on the road, look what those washington insiders did to me. in fact they haven't done anything. the rules committee is who determines nominating process. the rules committee doesn't even exist. it won't exist until all primaries are set and done. this talk of insiders trying to sabotage the trump campaign, pure balderdash. trish: or wishful thinking of -- third party candidacy. what do you think? >> i think the real testament is the fact that voters are making their decision and voters have currently put donald trump ahead of these quote, unquote establishment republicans. even he is barely a republican or not legitimate republican voters seem to want that the question then becomes does the establishment do something the voters clearly don't want? trish: that is risk. mitt romney getting out there saying this is no not the right direction for the party. wait a second. that is exactly who i want. so who are you, mitt ro

. >> blue state in the union, he has to win the state if he has any credibility moving forward. >> reports that a lot of democrats are dropping out of the party and donald trump, what do you make of that? support trump or make sure he wins because like favorable match and favorable match-up for there. >> more getting trump out of the way and that's bad news, particularly for bernie sanders because he needs every vote he to be a close race. >> gene: stay with us for complete super tuesday coverage of everything that's going on for you want to the minute results. political reporter sharman sacchetti will be with the campaign in palm beach, florida, blair miller in miami and ted daniel in burlington, vermont. we will alert you as we get them on the news app and watch for full results and reaction. >> sara: looks like hike is imminent and another train popular with college kids is getting cut. not so happy about the changes. >> jessica: prices for "t" could go up ten or 15 cents and chatting with people here at the busiest stops on the red line and people seem to understand the money going tow

again, doing well in kentucky because in part, coal mining country, blue collar, union guys and gals> are you surprised they're not going for cruz? >> cruz doesn't have the same effective message about illegal immigration and trade. that's the one-two punch in a lot of southern states. people will watch for the evangelicals to go for cruz in south carolina. >> maybe he would run the map with super tuesday. >> and to repeat a quote that was in the "wall street journal" after south carolina, i want a leader, not a preacher. so people don't vote, don't necessarily vote -- >> who said that? the "wall street journal"? >> it was a quote in the journal. i don't want a preacher running the country, i want a leader. somebody who voted for donald trump. >> got it. did you just assume they had that kind of accent? >> they were from the south so they sounded kind of like that. maybe worse. >> these are your people. >> he's dressed like a salesman. >> very good. i was going to bring a pocket watch tonight. >> you look at these numbers, it's interesting as we get -- wait to -- what's going to be h
