edie windsor challenged the constitutionality of doma. that came to the supreme court and that was the other decision of this last wednesday. there is a standing issue in that case, too. the attorney general and the president of the united states declined to defend the constitutionality of doma. they were continuing to enforce the prohibition and insisting the federal government not refund the tax back edie windsor thought she was entitled to because she thought she was married. the united states government did not defend doma in the federal court. a committee of the house of representatives appointed a lawyer to come in and defend the statute. the standing question in doma was whether or not, because the united states was no longer actors to windsor, there really diversity? the supreme court was petitioned to take the case once it had lost in the second circuit with respect to the constitutionality of doma. was there adversity under article 3 or not? that issue is all over the opinions. the supreme court upheld the standing of the jurisd

but whatever. >> the windsors were -- the windsors where did windsor come from? their an real name is sax coberg and they changed their name to windsor around world war ii. >> so at the became month batten. >> to have a german surname. >> my point is the -- they're the beloved people's princess diana and the new kate middleton have been loved on sight. the first time we saw them in people", we fell for them. al obviously very beautiful women. now we move on to a royal family more and more governed for its success by the latest bride. >> the family does what it must. the family rebrands itself as it must. it has done so and will go on and on. they're very good at this fairy tale stuff. >> tom, could they have picked, could will have fallen for someone any more perfect for the role than the woman we're looking at right now who's just become a mother? >> she absolutely ticks every single box there is. but the thing is, the thing you've got to remember about the windsors, the sax coberg, whatever we want to call them, the british monarchy, i don't think lease an inst

and windsor castle went up in flames.ave to close up shop. that's all a distant memory now. >> the queen has never been so popular. and really it's fascinating that william and catherine are the most popular royal couple, and catherine seen as one of the most influential women in the world. >> reporter: so the future couldn't be brighter for a baby born to this couple. >> the baby's going to enter a monarchy which is very secure. very popular. >> we love kate! >> probably more popular than it's been for 100 years. and very slim pickings for tabloid journalists these days. >> reporter: the new baby is new hope. >> the new baby -- and a bright future. and, you know, it's wonderful. it's absolutely wonderful. >> joe, take it away. >> so neil -- yeah -- neil, let's talk about what's been going on over in london over the past couple of days. there is a sense of joy that obviously we haven't seen around the royal family in quite some time. they did go through a terrible, terrible time in the 1990s. but you really sense that all

fuls the name of the queen's beloved grandfather, technically the founder of the house of windsor. alexander, there have been three scottish king i by that name. princess alexandera is william's godmother. alexandera is the queen's middle name. so philip is not included it, we're seeing a tribute to philip's family. louis was charles's honorary godfather and william shares louis as a middle name. so they managed to get in a lot of family references. the second earl of spencer was also named george. while they may not have thought about it, there's a distant nod to diana's family, too. >> and a lot of americans "the king's speech" was about george vi, so kate, let me ask you william arthur philip louis, that's four names. is it surprising the new prince has just three? >> you know, you are so right. royals in history tend to have a lot of extra names. he has seven to choose from, but what we're seeing here is what we have seen throughout this period. william and kate are a fairly modern couple. what they want to do is modernize the monarchy. a bit more down to earth, and losing one

the queen at windsor conflict was alerted this morning. she had no comment. you just mentioned what transpired with prince charles. of course, when he was asked that it would happen or could have happened the next six hours, his ply was, you might be right but the labor has already gone on and could go on much longer than that. david cameron had a reaction almost immediately wishing kate and the royal family best wishes for the whole nation calling it a very exciting occasion for all. craig, you're not going to hear anything at all in terms of updates until somebody, a palace official comes out of this door behind me carrying an official birth certificate, taking that to bucking hall palace two and a half miles away by car and put it on that easel in the forecourt of buckingham palace announcing the birth of the baby as 31 years ago, the baby's father william was announced. a little bit of tradition and theater there. back to you. >> a great deal of theater indeed. nbc's jim maceda, thanks to you. tom, what are we hearing at this point? we know you're live bl

how her memory takes its place in the rest of the great historical story of the house of windsor, and we now look to the future and to this new baby and to the future of the house of windsor which i think now is stronger really than it's been for, well, at any time since the second world war. that's certainly what the polling is showing, as well. >> yes, the public's affection in britain for the royal family is undiminished. isn't it? >> it went through a terrible time in the 1990s. since then, i think the fact that prince charles has proved himself to be a good father and the duchess of cornwall a good stepmother to the boys has helped enormously in the public both in britain and around the world and in the commonwealth. and also here in america i think. coming round to the fact that prince charles is a good thing. >> do you think that the birth of this baby means that the queen may be more likely to abdicate in the near future? >> i think less likely actually. >> less likely. >> yes. she's seen. 2013 pope benedict abdicate, the king of the belgians abdicate, the queen of holland abd

windsor, who did have an injury. as to why the district court didn't enter judgment when the united states switched its position, i -- i imagine that the court was -- would have wanted to have development of that issue, which was achieved through the intervention of the blag in the trial court, so that the judgment of unconstitutionality and of refund would have had a robust hearing -- >> really, that's very peculiar. when -- when both parties to the case agree on what the law is? what, the -- just for fun, the district judge is -- is going to have a hearing? >> well, your honor, the jurisdiction of the court, it seems to me, is not affected by the length of the proceedings it undertook. in kentucky -- >> i'm not talking about jurisdiction now. i'm talking about why the district court, without getting to the merits, should not have entered judgment against the government. >> i am not sure i have a wonderful answer to that question, justice scalia, but i do think the case bears some similarities to kentucky against in

and some of the things we looked at was the windsor case that you were discussing, the u.s.upreme court case. pennsylvania constitution. and a decision by the current attorney general in pennsylvania. and her decision not to defend doma in court. going back to the pennsylvania constitution, three things really sort of stuck out. article 1 section 1, a general statement on hey, we're all free and equal individuals and entitled to certain rights and happiness. and section 26 of the same article gets a little more narrow. it says, you know, if it's a civil right, nobody can discriminate against that person from exercising that civil right. and then section 28, the final section which sort of puts the -- crosses the t, dots the eye as far as i'm concerned. nobody can be discriminated against on the basis of sex. so right there, totally unambiguous. now, i'm confronted with a definition of marriage act in pennsylvania defines marriage as a civil union or a civil contract between a man and a woman. but on the other hand, i have three fairly obvious and important sections of the pe

a royal historian says the windsor family tends to live a very long time, so the new baby likely won't be king until he is in his 60s or 70s. that's not keeping companies from cashing in. oreo tweeted out this image, an oreo cookie and a baby bottle with the phrase "prepare the royal bottle service." and charmin got in on the act too. the toilet paper company tweeting out get the throne ready. >>> closer to home we want to give you a look outside as you're looking at palo alto, san jose and emeryville. showers are on the radar. meteorologist jeff ranieri is in the nbc bay area weather center. jeff, i got some of those sprinkles coming into work today on my windshield. >> very hit and miss activity but it's coming down at a time here the past two or three hours. some monsoonal moisture is creating this. we told you about it last thursday and friday and here it is, the most numerous lightning strikes across the sierra. for the bay area, no lightning but again a few drops. right now we're tracking a small batch of very light showers throughout the peninsula, up near woodside, also san mat

there will be complicated questions, for example, the windsor case came up in the context of a state happens if you get married in new york, move to north carolina. still own property in new york. die in north carolina and probate, and estate is probated through north carolina law but what happens to the property in new york? does that go to the same sex spouse in new york or get run in different fashion in north carolina? for the purposes of federal estate taxes do you pay federal estate taxes? you are not married in the state of residence but married in the state of new york. hard to see how that happens. i predict the next step will be force these to be portable. that will be the next supreme court case to be brought. new york becomes the new las vegas. everyone goes to new york or 13 other states that have same-sex marriage. you get married there, take it home. this puts a lost pressure on section 2 of doma which says states don't have to accord full faith and credit in these marriages particularly where the states are involved in administering the same federal benefits. what pos
