just a couple of questions and you commissioner andrews will look at it and whittle it down. there is no magic number and there is a clear delineation after three or seven that's what you will present and any discussion to reopen or continue the application process will be made by the commission. is that right? >> i think to continue it i think unless you tell me otherwise i think that commissioner andrews and i as the committee assigned for the recruiting process would have the authority to tell the recruiter to send out notices that the recruiting deadline has been extended to another time period. >> and that would be because you didn't think there was even one candidate that would qualify? >> right. i don't know if i would say one but there were not i would hope that two or three we feel would at least qualify. now, i have to tell you that the -- we're in the process of preparing what i will call "core questions" which will be the questions that will be asked of every candidate when we have personal interviews with them, whether those interviews are face-to-face or whether

on the telephone -- you can tell what dirksen does is try to get amendments to whittle down what the republicans wanted. the republicans wanted to support the civil rights bill, but they wanted their version of it and johnson would not let them. dirksen realized he could not do anything. that is when he says, the powerful idea, it's time as calm. -- time has come. host: mr. califano, we have to move on, but a quick response? mr. califano: one more comment -- lyndon johnson's instructions to all of us on the senior staff were you treat mike mansfield and everett dirksen the same. in the house, you treat speaker mccormick and the minority leader, who was gerald ford, the same. give them the same accommodations. so, he saw the terrific importance of having republicans in a large part of his great society legislation. it was not just civil rights. the southern democrats controlled the committees and oppose just about every part of the great society. the spending, putting the power in the hands of the federal government. they were very, very important. host: let's go to august 6 1965. the

see more poll fluctuations in the republican side, particularly as the field goes winding down and whittling down. i think hillary clinton's bigger problem is she's got joe biden on a family vacation this week who is probably reading all about her e-mail issues and is deciding and mulling over with his family and taking their counsel on whether he should run. if joe biden runs, he will take a huge chunk out of her, particularly out of her piece of the pie. >> brad, is that a consider? are you looking at that? >> look, you know, vice president biden will make his own decision. we have always said this would be a competitive primary. i think -- look at all of the focus. every republican at the debate, 32 types mentioned hill cry c e clinton. the entire focus is on hillary clinton. she's beating every republican. she's winning in iowa. she's winning across the country. given all the slings and arrows, she's in good shape. >> one person who is definitely going on the at tack -- >> she's not beating every republican in polls in the swing states. >> she was winning in every single state against ev

but as we move into the season, you go to iowa, you have candidates drop out after that and whittle down the field. >> you know, very few people compare donald trump to barack obama and i think that's for good reason. but i wonder if they both benefited to some degree early on from the notion of mood and style and a promise over specific policy. barack obama talked a lot about uniting the country and bipartisanship. they're themes. not specific policies. you listened to donald trump on saudi arabia. there wasn't a plan. there wasn't a foreign policy that i recognized. there was the idea that he will be quote/unquote tough and won't be shook down by the saudis same way and will get tough. let me play a little bit more of that. >> the primary reason we're with saudi arabia is we need the oil. we don't need the oil as much. we could let everybody else fight it out. saudi arabia's going to be in big trouble pretty soon and need help. if you look at yemen and the border, that is one long border and they're not going in for yemen but for the oil and saudi arabia. saudi arabia's going to need h

it was to try to get amendments whittled down. republicans wanted to support the civil rights bill but their version of it. johnson wouldn't let them. dirkson realized he couldn't do anything. that's what he said the powerful idea that the time has come much the time for the voting rights act came a lot earlier. he is and mansfield get-together much sooner than that handled. >> we have to move on. but i have a quick response. >> one more quick comment. to get a sense of the world in those days. lyndon johnson's instructions to all of us on the senior staff were you treat mike mansfield and the majority leader and everett dirkson the same. they need help, you give it to them. in the house, you treat speaker mccormick and gerald formed the same. give them the same kaopld additions. accommodations. he saw the terrific importance of having republicans on a large part of this great society legislation. because it wasn't just civil rights. the southern democrats have controlled the committees in the senate and almost all in the house we

you've taken eight and whittled them down to four based upon your votes with that tweet buy the dip,e, cnbc.com. you've chosen apple over intel, also exxon over caterpillar and on this side here, american express over ibm, proctor & gamble over walmart. those are your four finalists. what we want to know is, based upon these four, which stocks move on to the finals? is it going to be apple or exxon? look at apple shares here, the chart hasn't been pretty over the past couple of months but still, a compelling case to be made there. also, exxon mobil, what's going to happen with oil prices? is that going to have an affect on the trade for exxon mobil shares? of course look at what's happening this with american express and proctor & gamble. make american express bottomed outing maybe pricing in of the costco business being lost will be in the stock already. proctor & gamble shedding businesses, it's a company in transition. now, apple and american express, two of the lower dividend yielders on the dow right now, but exxon mobil and proctor & gamble are two of the heavier dividend payer

the rest of the debates being whittled considerably particularly if trump is olding the rest of the fieldn the single digits and he is in the high 20's. he can't be treated as unserious candidate. jeb is doing exactly that what the donors want is essentially people to call him out and talk about specifics. he has proven himself a masterful speech maker with rhetoric that doesn't have a lot of substance to it. and truth be told, eric, this early in the process, in august, when folks aren't taking -- paying attention, it will kick up after labor day. labor day comes late this year. to put down a major white paper policy is very, very risky. if you talk about the economics of things now with the way things have been on the markets and the ways the numbers and the government change every couple of reports, the ground will shift under your feet as soon as you put out a policy. trump arguably is pretty cagey as a politician by talking about sort of half expressed very emotional rhetoric, and getting people to sort of all hone in on what he is trying to say but not literally saying in a journali

part of 34 of the world's best that will eventually somehow be whittled down to a team of 12 in time for the 2016 olympics in rio. >> how they put a team together is just about compatibility, picking the right guys to form the right team to win a gold medal and you want to be a part of it. >> it's just good to get back in the gym. we've had a hiatus from it, a lot of us have, so for us to be back here and to have four warriors, yes, it's so special. >> wow, some tough choices to be made there. >>> finally, little league san jose fell 9-3 today to nevada in west regional play. the nor cal squad entered action in san bernardino with 14 consecutive postseason wins but have been eliminated following back-to-back losses versus arizona and nevada. so the kids from san jose had a beautiful run, but gosh, it's heart breaking when it all comes to an end. back to you guys. >> we are still rooting for them. we congratulate them on a great season. >> yes, very proud of them. thanks. >>> okay, it's going to get hot lighter this week. >> it is. so my advice, enjoy tomorrow. >> okay. >> really enjo

we whittled it down by viewer votes to these now. very tight race with facebook and jp morgan.rgan comes out of that part of the bracket, nike edges out starbucks on that side here and viewers also said chipotle perhaps a little more relatively overvalued than under armour and netflix more than home depot. this is our final four now. i guess the question becomes whether or not viewers will continue to feel that way about some of the stocks. they can go to cnbc.com and vote there, also tweet with the #sell did thele did the rip. we want to know what viewers think about whether these stocks are worth taking profits in. that's what viewers have said so far. i would be curious to hear what the traders think and whether they would have voted this way or not. >> doc, you can weigh in first. >> i would agree with most of what i see here as far as i thought one of the stocks you wanted to hold was home depot. not on the sell the rip side. netflix, they're going to be able to tap the $48 billion company, take some money off the table. i would think netflix would be one that people go fo

realistically in the next year that the 70%, big chunk of where they're getting their profits can actually whittlen and the new products take over and that people will afford a higher multiple tore that? i think that's what's concerning people. especially since they didn't blow out the iphone numbers, the iphone numbers are great. >> we're an apple family. none of the girls are telling me they need an iwatch. >> i want to go through a few stock picks before we run. we can kick them around with our gang. last time you were on, microsoft which is up 8.5% since then. berkshire b shares which are up 12. you like berkshire a, the a shares. >> one of the problems we have now is we have a lot of cash. and berkshire a. >> it does trade in a range and we have customer who are calling you and saying why am i 20% cash? and i said you're asking the wrong question, you should be asking why am i doing so well? because that's how you're doing so well. this is a chance to get into the market and we like b because as i told you last time, the market to me then was like the day after black friday, no deals left. it

look presidential, to rise above donald trump, to be the person the republican party when the field whittles down wants to coalesce behind. that day is coming and that's what they should keep their eyes on. for the other candidates john kasich ted cruz they need a punchout moment. they need to have a chance where everybody says wow, did you see what they did? that's the way they can get up and beyond donald trump so you have two tiers, different tiers have different needs. >> they need their moment but i wonder if you think it's possible for some of these candidates who may be our -- there were sort of ascendant and you saw donald trump cutting into their poll numbers. is there a way for them to have their moment when you almost -- you could -- you have a safe bet to say donald trump will have a moment right? is there a way for these candidates to challenge that? >> sure i'm sure there is. you have to sort of go minute by minute as this goes to see what the opening is. you remember that famous debate in new hampshire in 1980. no one would have predicted that prarg president reagan would have

the senior bond holders, those bonds are falling and you can see the market capital been further whittledy as we speak. the bigger question in greece, in the wake of friday's vote. remember, the bailout got through the parliament there locally, the greek prime minister only able to gain less than 120 votes from his own party. the bigger question is whether or not you have the political stability to adapt the reforms needed in greece to satisfy fit bailout conditions. senior members of his own government are saying after the party revolts on friday, he now needs to have his own vote of confidence. if there's a vet of confidence in the prime minister at the moment and the opposition party's abstain, he will lose and therefore, we will probably go to early elections, just be aware that could happen. i see some people suggesting a confidence vote on thursday. whether it will be that rapid, i'm not sure. the polls suggest he would win again so he will still be in power, but we will have to go through that kind of protest, probably in september, october. back to you. >> love watching election r
