up. america was absolutely the victor of the world. the notion that democracy and capit capitalism is something i felt in my bones. it is more about what was next for america. unfortunately today i think it would be hard for any of you to submit the same thing. that tremendous confidence that i had in your age no longer is this. this poll after poll after poll proves this. the one that i found most striking was a tracking poll that i found. it is basically the exact same question for year after year after year. the question is roughly do you believe that the american government works for the benefit of all of the people or does it only work for a few big interests working on behalf of themselves? coming out of world war ii, 75% of the public believed that it would work for the benefit of all of the people. last year 8% of the american public believed that the government worked for all of the people. so here we are in which the faith in this american way, this very unique thing, this experiment in american democracy all of a sudden feel

i grew up in america, so our history of korea is very minimal.tart with stories that my mother had told me, that my grandfather had mentioned, and i went from there. you see, i think many people picking up the book in this country will be startled to realise that anyone going into the second world war as a korean had been living under what we might calljapanese occupation for 25 years? yes, definitely. my grandfather was a boy during japanese occupation, so he grew up speaking japanese. he had ajapanese name. he couldn't express anything in korean. he had to hide that. so the two sisters at the centre of this book who live by the sea and dive and do all the things that you do to keep yourself going, to find things that can be sold and create a living, they're, in a sense, holding on to a culture which they feel, i suppose inside themselves, is permanently under threat? well, it actually was. they were really the only divers on the island. and the japanese actually prised them. so they would take a lot of them and transport them to japan to dive o

america safe. that is what we've been doing. so we'll take up the issue. but i want to set this out clearly for the people of america. as they watch what just happened, what could have happened was would you guys please come to the white house so we can have a constructive discussion about immigration reform, daca, by the way we would like to talk about sanctuary cities and have a provocative and tough conversation that may or may not clul salty language about any particular issue. that actually is the way we do things. one thing we never do is invite people into a comfortable space and then somehow out in the front go throw a bomb so the conversation starts off in a negative way rather than a positive way. that's not a way, irrespective of what anybody's position might be, to get to a thoughtful answer to the american public. so not just talking about mod tell behavior and courage to get to one. because washington and this president is great getting to know the mayors around this room are trying to get to yes. so putting the pressure a side the process doe

up racist terms. >> the worldwide reaction has been harsh. there may be nothing more consequential to our economy than what gets done to change america's immigration system. >> united states, nation of immigrants. president trump and republicans in congress are under the gun to come up with deal on immigration and boarder security as part of a spending bill deadline that's only days away. at issue are daca waivers. they came to the united states as kids. the waivers allow them to stay and work in this country and then there's the debate over how much the president promised the border wall with mexico. >> why is he gets anything? isn't i supposed to be paid for my mexico? >> ding, ding, ding. that's what i say. from an economic point of view are the big cuts from legal immigration that trump and the gop are pushing for including ending family provisions what trump refers to as chain migration. >> it's not comprehensive immigration reform. people in government seem to have trouble understanding when you talk about immigration reform, you might be talking about securing borders and sdilsdil -- skilled workers. the h1b visas that a lot of people go to

this is a moment for us to rise up america and say this is not who we are. >> it is pretty black andte, no pun intended with that, it's pretty clear. nor have any of these issued a statement that i mentioned condemning the remarks, kevin what do you think is that acceptable zm. >> look i think two calculations are made and both are wrong, first is maybe this won't get out. we learned by watching this white house that everything eventually becomes a breaking news story because someone in the white house leaks it out. the second part which is more important to the overall democrats and the overall democracy and fabric who we are as a country is that some of these folks believe it is not their responsibility. that's where they are wrong. it is their responsibility. the old saying that all that's required for evil to prosper is for good men to do nothing. well it is time that the people who are in the room when the president makes these type of remarks that are a. against everything we stand for as americans confront the president and actually point this out and do so to their con stit u

light to the world, , and helpss economically in every other way as the world has always looked up to america and our ideals. but, unfortunately, that moral authority is declining under president trump's leadership and declining rapidly. it may have reached the low point yesterday when president trump in tweet after tweet after tweet offered a very poor representation of the united states to the world. more than that, president trump's foreign-policy by tweet is doing serious damage to the country. where we have serious issues to address a broad, president trump seems happy with macho boasts and belligerent threats that get us nowhere. if anyone of us were in a classroom with someone who behaved like president trump had, we would ostracize them, straighten them out. we don't hear a piece from the vast majority of our republican colleagues about this, so many of whom are hawks. we have serious issues to address a broad here president trump's foreign-policy by tweet when not advance our standing in the world. it will not reassure our allies or other nations that it's better to work with us than
