thank you so much, yusef. there's so many elements to bring into this to try and reach a solution. >> and they've been quite important in this equation, as well. i think the longer term question is whether the kurdish autonomous region can consolidate their power and their territory. >>> setbacks at home and abroad have hurt president obama's political standing and confidence and his leadership. the latest nbc-"wall street journal" poll finds just 41% of americans approve of the president obama's job performance. same percentage approve of his handling of the economy and 37% on foreign policy. that's the lowest rating off his presidency. the obama administration is very, quote, on a lower confidence rating than george w. bush had post hurricane katrina. >>> in other news, gap flowing from table on a ewe containan pipeline. crimp intended to discredit the ukraine. in the meantime, the kremlin says president putin has discussed a possible cease-fire in the east of ukraine in the country's president poroshenko. p

this is another clip from the documentary when raymond santana and yusef salaam describe the scene. me into theed conference room and the lawyer said, we are going to lose this case. what we are planning to do is see if we can get you a plea deal. i remember telling them, you guys can cop out, but if i did something, i would cop out, i would want the least amount of time for what i did. if i did not do anything, you can give me the rest of my life in prison. i did not know what that meant back then but i knew that there would be no way i would cop out to something i did not do. >> they said it has to be all three of you or nobody. natalie byfield, as you listen to these men whose now, a quarter of a century later, this case is being settled, mayor bloomberg refused to settle. the failure of the previous administration to settle the case is consistent with their approach to matters like this, matters related to the police. i really think that is important that the the blasio administration stuck to his promise that he would come in and settle the case because we have going on alongsi

yusef salem. this is a man that we walked over to central park, this is where it happened.aid at the time it was going on, if people had their way, we would be hanging from the trees here in central park. but having gone through the experience of spending years in jail, he said, it has left an indelible scar. it's like a nightmare. i don't know if we have a bit of what he told me a moment ago. >> do we have that tape? >> we've been exonerated and our records have been wiped clean completely. we've never -- we can't get past that. it's not something you can just say, oh, it never really happened. it happened. >> he spent about seven years in jail. one of his co-defendants spent i think 13. they were supposed to be about $1 million each per year in prison. >> that's what they're supposed to be getting. they're not expecting an apology, you know, and but -- but now they have to move on. we also reached out to ken burns and his daughter sara who made that wonderful documentary called "central park five." sara told us in part this is a bit of closure for them. they did issue par
