james madison, james buchanan john quincy adams or martin van buren?r. >> this week's book of the week is david brook's "the road to character." he makes very important points of life through ten richly told biographies. it's a wonderfully written book that will make you think deeply a must read. now for the last look. the secret service protects president obama. the queen's guard safeguards britain's royal palace. the guard looks to keep pope francis safe. who would have thought a rhino needs similar protection? he is the last known male rhino and is under 24 hour watch by rangers. sudan and his two female companions are three of the last five members of this seesies in the entire world. this is especially tragic considering rhinos often called the last dinosaurs have been on the planet for 50 million years. the rangers are in place to stop poachers from killing sudan and his lady friends. with earth day just around the corner these rhinos are a stark reminder humans threaten the planet in many days. thanks to us sudan's cousins the western black ryan

i mean, come on, you can't tell me obama is worse than martin van buren. [ laughter ] i dare you to tellat. that's right, dick chaney gave an interview to "playboy" and for the first time ever people who got caught with a "playboy" are saying, "i swear, i was just looking at the pictures." [ laughter ] in "playboo", you see all of casper's parts. [ laughter and applause ] 'cause usually -- usually it's just like his face and his hands, and then the rest looks like a sheet. oh, not in "playboo." [ laughter ] not in "playboo." have you guys heard of facebook? [ cheers ] okay, good, because this next joke is about facebook. facebook is rolling out a new feature that lets users spend money though their messenger app simply by typing "pay" and the person's name. and now all of a sudden nobody minds that their mom is on facebook. [ laughter ] go crazy, mom. arnold schwarzenegger, this is true. arnold schwarzenegger was stopped by police in australia this week for riding a bike without a helmet. and it's especially dangerous for schwarzenegger, because if he got a concussion, how would you know

i thought van buren was going to move towards crude. they circled back to a very old target.oup is a natural gas group for the most part. the synergies between shell and bg are huge. that is the reason it may not be as big as it looks. alix: for the premium? >> that and the amount of debt they have. they have 16 billion in debt. it's a heavy price. alix: they could be cutting the credit rating. talk to me about exxon making a bid for that. it sounds crazy to me. >> does this deal trigger the next wave of mergers like we had back in the 90's where we had one deal and a flush that followed? the difference was this there was some great logic between these companies coming together. i think for exxon, do they have the firepower to do it? sure. there is less logic for them doing this. exxon is big in the production but not so much trading. there is contentious stuff around regulation. there will be a move to say we really want to come over the top. alix: do you agree? they want shale. >> we are talking about the method in which they approach the market. let's put it very simply. e

when mormons go to washington and say, are you kidding me president van buren says, your cause is just, but there is nothing i can do for you. he had bigger fish to fry. david: they also played the mormons -- aren't-aren't-a-religion card. this is where we had to our religious studies. what is a religion? the courts and executive and judiciary and the legislative branches are working this out. some people are saying in the debates about polygamy in the 19th century for morgan's -- mormons that mormonism isn't a religion. today, some people are saying, islam isn't a religion, so we don't have to worry about religious protections for muslims, because that is a political scheme or mormonism is a business enterprise, or native americans are superstitions, not religions. maybe we can talk about that. how does the definition of religion factor into these debates about how this plays out particularly for minorities or for giving evangelical protestants a privileged position? do you have any thoughts about this, david? david: to me, the key issue is not the definition of religion about the dis

. >> i think there are also some great quotes by van buren on the world stage they had to justify this. you can civilize them, make them capitalist by removing them. you can justify it. >> again, it seems to me that he is saying liberal society produces a nostalgia for the paternalistic, more structured society that existed before the revolution, and it is that nostalgia that it creates within americans and most prominently jackson himself. paternalism evolves to control to oversee indians. that's another interesting point to me, is -- this is a similarity i see with schlesinger and with sellers that what came after the revolution or what happened after the revolution is, schlesinger says it in chapter one, the title of chapter one of schlesinger's book. "the end of arcadia." that is the general sense i get from all of those books. >> one thing about what you said and what you said. what we have not gotten into that i think we need to, the book is about the centrality of indian removal and what is different with sellers, and rogan argues it is the indian removal that initiates the mark

keating: acting like adults and saying here are the five things that most america -- lets a martin van burensolutely correct. here are the 5, 3, 4 things i will do as president, and he did them. and i think whoever is the republican candidate favorite, most on opportunity for america -- tom: should rand paul be a candidate? governor keating: he is in there. he cannot be his father. if he is his father, he will lose. brendan: i talked to greg ballard, the republican, and i was stunned with how upset he was over indiana's freedom of religious restoration act. that seems like it has shifted in the party. governor keating: i think it is generational to a certain extent, but we have to remember when a sensitive issue is handled by the courts as opposed to buy individual legislatures in the federal system of all 50 states, you will have a problem. when roe v wade was handed down by the supreme court, there was not even a right to life movement. before then, all the states did on their own. i think you are seeing that here. that is regrettable but it is a fact of the marketplace was that i think re
