is that story true and what can you tell me about the pittsburgh and western pennsylvania area? >> i will start with the second part of your question. the gist of that story is true. but that distorts it a little bit. mrs. roosevelt was in tuskegee in 1939 or 1940 for a board meeting of the roosevelt fund. she was on the board of directors of the fund responsible for doing lots of things, mainly building schools for african-american children in rural areas. she had been to tuskegee several times because of her interest in infantile paralysis research. what people don't tend to remember is they had to do that research at tuskegee because it didn't allow blacks. she had been there several times. she knew about the work dr. carver was doing and when she got there she did hear about this training program that tuskegee institute had going on, civilian program for its students. chief anderson was the chief instructor pilot and when she visited the facility she asked if chief anderson could take her for a plane ride. there was a famous picture taken of the two of them along with louis

[ applause ] >> reporter: on the floor of the house of representatives, which for weeks has been a well of bitterness and rancor, there she was, a tiny woman, her close cropped hair a badge of her recovery from being shot in the head at point blank range. gabby giffords came back to congress to vote, and her colleagues united for once rose to cheer her. afterwards minority leader nancy pelosi h

attorney for western pennsylvania, mary beth buchanan, why stockton never testified, and was never charged stockton was sick, had suffered several strokes and was unable to travel. after our initial phone call, buchanan never talked to us again and at a news conference in erie, the current u.s. attorney, david hickton, wasn't forthcoming either. >> what about mr. stockton? what can you tell us about his status? will he ever be prosecuted for this? >> we're not in a position to comment on in mr. stockton. >> douglas, marjorie diehl armstrong's attorney, says there is good reason the u.s. attorney and the fbi want to keep quiet about jay stockton. >> do you he is the one person who got away with this? >> yes, he got immunity from the government. free and clear. convicted sex offender multitime sex offender. the government felt that he was the least involved person. and so they gave him immunity. >> they shouldn't have given him immunity. he didn't deserve immunity. he deserved, he is the guilty one that killed my brother. he deserved to be brought to justice. >> stockton has been featured on

in western pennsylvania they are doing that, they've created thousands of new jobs in the last two years. second, repeal the dodd-frank bill in one day in the house, two or three in the senate. america, raise the price of housing overnight, give every small business hope. a 2300 page monstrosity. you have to look at a serious tax program, different than washington thinks. gains which would attract hundreds of billions of investment in the u.s.. 12 1/2% corporate tax rate which would get general electric to pay more taxes. we should go to 100% expensing so capping -- so companies could write-off all new equipment in one year. these are real changes. and the challenge you have with this administration is that it wants to go in the opposite direction. virtually everything president obama and his appointees believe this is bureaucratic socialism they want to micromanage the entire country from d.c.. the fact is that kills jobs. >> greta: how much of that is democratic ideology? and how much is president obama? i guess the way i distinguish the question is, if it were a different democratic p

when i was growing up in the steeltown of western pennsylvania 21% of the country was involved in manufacturingnow it is nine. we haven't lost the innovation -- >> greta: now we are more of a service economy there has been some evolution in terms of what our economy is. >> that's right in that evolution we have lost a lot of good paying jobs that supported families that allowed for upward mobility that is one of the things that people are saying. look at governor perry he talks about his unemployment rate. a lot of those jobs were dead end jobs not resulting in a growing economy in the middle. that's where manufacturing comes in. we need to make things in america. i'm here in pennsylvania. we make things here. we are proud of that we have a stronger economy as a result of that. i propose take the corporate tax 35% on manufacturers and cut that to zero. eliminate the corporate tax if you manufacture and process in this country. that will buy a lot of knows jobs back. combine that with a plan that says if you are a manufacturer that did export jobs and created things and built things overseas and

like the golf associations from when i start right here in western pennsylvania aa and make in the westenn golf association tournaments. then the usga, the united states golf association, what those people, whether you like them or dislike them, what they've done to make the game so great is part of what made me do what i wanted to do and have the opportunity to do what i wanted to do. to play the game. the history of the game. and you know, those things are so important to me that people talk about the galleries. peop that have inspired me to what i did and to win and to have the pleasures that i have had in my life, my wife winnie, my wife now, how they helped me do what i wanted to do. it's so important and i'm most grateful for that. and i could spend the rest of my life just thanking peoe for the contributions th've made anthe fact that i've had a big success. mark mccormick, we haven talked about hi too much. mark was great and we had differences. but he was great for me because he taught me something about business and about the world. and the other people, the doc the people i'm

the biggest problems was in western pennsylvania. these storms came in very suddenly. didn't move very much. they brought torrential rains in a short period of time and they wreaked serious havoc. of course the northeast, the storms came in fast and hard, in pittsburgh, inundated neighborhoods, submerging cars. a mother and daughter were killed. an elderly woman is still missing. >> water started coming in my doors that's when i knew i was in trouble. 911 said try to swim, that's when i got out of my car it was well over my head. >> reporter: the rain came so quickly. the mighty allegheny river rose nine feet in just a few hours. >> i was standing on the roof to climb out the window. >> the next thing i knew, the water was up to the middle of my door and you just see a red dump truck floating. >> reporter: and in new york and new jersey, the storm left people running for cover and left their cars stranded. >> cars kept coming on the street, jutted right into the water. they can't see it. it's getting dark out. >> there was such a lot of rain in such a short amount of t

if your failer scotch irish settlers in western pennsylvania to attend a one way or another involved in the list rebellion however. [laughter] there were people he did comply with tax or tried to. there were people out there who weren't in the state of rebellion, people trying to sell legal whiskey to the army, which is one of the western frontier and you couldn't tell it legal if you didn't have certificate in the stamping couldn't get the stamp unless you pay the tax and if you've been touched up pain in the tanks burning could be burned down, things like what i read about have been too rapid jump in. you'd be shunned by your neighbors and ultimately potentially worse. some people are very afraid of assassination. so whatever site they might've been on, i can't speak to that. but it would've been hard not to be fairly mentioned what is going on in 1794 if you repair. the idea also that it was partly standing up for the little guy was really one of the ways it has been around and in many ways a sum of playing fields thing before sheriff's, but there's another thing i want to emphasi

he used to be a juvenile court judge in western pennsylvania, one of of the toughest judges in the stateing up thousands of kids for all kinds of offenses. earlier this year a jury found him guilty of taking almost a million dollars in kickbacks, money he got from the builder of two privately owned juvenile detention centers. he provided the kids to keep the centers full and he was paid handsomely in return. the kids were typically denied some of the most basic constitutional rights. the right to a lawyer, to a fair and impartial hearing, to the explanation of the charges against them. the hearings were quick and almost always resulted in the defendants being locked up. the state supreme court has thrown out about 4,000 juvenile convictions handed down in the judge's courtroom over the years. the former judge could have faced a maximum of 157 years in prison but instead the 61-year-old exjudge sentenced to 28 years, meaning he'll be in jail until he's 89 years old. jenna. jenna: more on this story. thank you very much, rick. i'm going to pin pick it up from here. we have one of the teens

west of raleigh and over into charlotte and virginia and west virginia and western pennsylvania and almostall of upstate new york. new england will feel this as well. this dark purple area, that's where the heavy accumulation of rain is expected to be. it is usually to the right of the center of the storm as the moisture gets thrown in here from the atlantic ocean. 6 to 10 inches easily. that is going to continue to be a big problem as well. a very strong and formidable storm. some intensity as it heads up north carolina and weaker as it gets into the northeast. we have wind shear and water temperature is cooler. that is what we can look forward to with the potential for it getting weaker. no matter how you slice, jim, it will be a devastating storm for a lot of people. >> thank you, jacqui jeras. we appreciate it. atlantic city is one of the northeast's biggest tourist destinations. it is already under mandatory evacuation orders. we will find out what they are doing to keep everybody safe. we will check on atlantic city after the break. >>> atlantic city has seen its share of storms, but

in western pennsylvania, you have 72,000 new jobs since the last quarter of 2009, and the average salary is $73,000. in north dakota, one development is 25 times bigger than expected. the half 3% unemployment. you think people would say, that would be good. what is the secret? partly energy and partly technology. but they have a 3%. when i was speaker, we cut the capital gains tax and with uncluttered years, we had 75% more revenue from capital gains than at the higher rate, because lower tax led to people being more active and lead to people investing. everyone agrees that the current corporate tax rate that we get. this is the latter curve applied in a practical way. if we went to 12% corporate tax rate, we would get money out ofy because they hire tax lawyers, the largest tax firm in the world is the general electric tax department, to avoid 35% taxes. at 12.5%, that wouldirgogogogog. no one disputes this. this city cannot do it. it all gets locked up in politics and ideology. in fact, about $1 triio a35%. at 12.5% probably $6 billion of it would come home. with a holiday, almost all
