at the time bob la follette was governor, united states senators were still being elected by the state legislature. one of the progressive reforms that progressives all over the country advocated was the direct election of senators. 1905 a senate position opened up in wisconsin and bob la follette announced he was going to run for senator, but he was not going to resign his position as governor until his reforms were passed. so, he was successfully elected senator, stayed in wisconsin for the first nine, ten months of his term, and not until the legislature adjourned after passing his program did he assume his seat in washington, d.c. in 1906. that began a 20-year period of service in the united states senate. bob la follette was trying to repeat on a national level some of his successes in wisconsin. la follette's methods of politics had to change because he was dealing with persuading a majority of 96 senators to support his position. and la follette was a master tactician. just like on the state level, he was able to gather data on who would support him, who he needed to make contac

now we are set up to have two united states senators who are going to do that same thing aga again, and georgia can't afford to put itself in position to sacrifice its own needs as a state by electing two united states senators who have pledged to not work with this incoming administration. we need two partners and need to elect to these two seats of the united states senate and we're going to need a lot of help from everybody across the nation in order to get it done. >> that rally we were talking about, the joint indoor rally for senators loeffler and perdue is getting under way right now in gwinnett county on the left side of your screen there. let me ask you how do you explain from your political analysis what we saw happen in georgia, the amount of turnout that came for president-elect biden that put him over the edge in georgia and yet this kind of undecided aspect of the runoffs for the two races. some are saying georgia voted as a referendum on trump not necessarily because they were join to the platform of the democratic party. what do you make of it? >> i think the fact that w

united states congress. i will send an immigration bill to the united states senate with a pathway to citizenship for over 11 undocumented people in the country. >> i want to bring in maria. thanks for joining us on this. very much appreciate it. but before we address what biden can do to change things when it comes to immigration first 100 days especially, i do want to address what the supreme court will be seeing tomorrow. we'll be considering tomorrow. and it's astounding that they're considering whether or not the president has the authority to exclude undocumented immigrants from the u.s. census. when you're educating folks about the census and encouraging them to fill the census out, one of the things that one talks about is the fact that you will not be targeted if, in fact, you're an undocumented immigrant filling out a census. it's more about appropriating funds to those certain areas. and yet here we have a president who is trying to do that very thing which is target these undocumented immigrants. >> right. and so that narrative that we -- that you subjected the viewers to of listening to donald t

not expected to change the outcome. >> i can't tell you how important it is that we flip the united states senate. >> reporter: the battle for georgia is now at the senate level, where both of the state seats will be decided in january. a democratic sweep would give mr. bide extent party control of the senate. democrat jon ossoff is hoping he can capitalize on biden's win with his own upset over republican david perdue. >> joe and kamala, they will not be able to govern. they will not be able to contain this virus and rebuild this economy unless we win these two u.s. senate races in georgia. >> reporter: both partie partiel spend tens of millions on campaign ads and voter outreach. republicans are flying in party stars, and though president trump campaigned here several times... >> i love georgia. i love being with you. >> reporter: ...he has no plans to return to stump for perdue or kelly loeffler, who is trying to edge out democrat raphael warnock. >> make no mistake we are the fire wall. not just for the u.s. senate but the future of our country. >> reporter: you are watching history happen. t

but truman, being a creature of the united states senate, like joe biden being a creature of the unitedtes senate, knew that in the words of bismarck that politics was the art of the possible. the art of the attainable. and the art, and i love this, of next best thing. and that is something that joe biden understands as much as anybody in washington, d.c. >> joe, as you explain in your book, truman knew from the start that he had to reach out. he was not well-known. joe biden has a much easier time of it. he has experience in government and knows a wide range of people at home and abroad. when franklin roosevelt died, sailors at sea went bitterly thinking that the war might never be won. japanese propaganda announced that at least victory was possible because the great american leader franklin roosevelt was gone and harry truman knew that he had from the beginning to reach out and build a national consensus. and i've always thought, one of the things that i love about your book, you illustrate the win in which the internationalism comes from the heartland like from missouri, like from t

i mean, i don't understand how these united states senators, no matter how out of touch and tone deafmay be and my opponent lives on a private island behind three gates. he doesn't have a lot of contact with ordinary people in georgia but to not recognize that six, eight months without economic relief is doing so much damage to the well-being, to the financial solvency, to the household finances of ordinary people here in georgia, so the bottom line, reverend, is trust the medical experts. implement best public health practices, rush economic relief to ordinary people and then let's pass an ambitious jobs, infrastructure and clean energy bill with which we can lay the foundations for economic recovery, for an equitable, economic recovery that includes economic opportunity for people in all communities, while also contributing to the long overdue effort to protect our planet and fight climate change. >> i have to go but i must ask you, president trump announced he's coming down to campaign for perdue, your opponent and for the other incumbent who was appointed. are you, one, do you thi

it is only the united states senate that hangs in the balance and that is a pretty big deal. >> it is a really big deal and because it is the united states senate and the last refuge of any sort of sense of sanity in washington, it is the entire federal government hanging in the balance because of those two seats. i don't blame the president for wanting to fight this thing to the very end. here is why. because that is not what undermines people's faith and frustrates conservatives and republicans. what frustrates them is the fact that there is all of this evidence and that there was funny business that went on in the election. whether that was enough to turn the outcome of the election or not, i don't know. but the problem isn't president trump shining a light on it. the problem is the fact that this stuff happens in the first place. you think -- but i do think you are right. if we think the suppression poles at the beginning and before the election that said there biden winning by double digits and trump has no hope or chance of winning joe stay home. you think that is bad, think abo
