rachel was close to her family. jackson was an orphan and grew close to rachel's family. emily donelson, the house she grew up in, is less than two miles away from here. he has become this national hero and there were people here all the time. rachel was the knowledge to be a pretty nice hostess, cordial and welcoming. during jackson's saying after the battle of new orleans from 1815 to the rest of her life, they have lots and lots of company. they had many, many parties or even in jenner's here at the hermitage. -- dinneers hear -- dinners here at the hermitage. they acquired a good deal of silver as they went along, such as these plants cups. they would have been used for an evening party where some highly the third up punch was served. -- liquored up punch was searched. inwas more about her comfort big cities than it was about her actual appearance or clothing. she was not a fan of anything that took into jackson away from the hermitage. during the war of 1812, there were letters from her that say things like, do not let fame and fortune blind you to the fact that you

i'm rachel maddow. the show is coming to you live from outside massachusetts general hospital in boston where we continue our coverage of the bombing attack that ripped through this city. just before 3:00 this afternoon. today is patriots day which is a holiday here in my home state of massachusetts. it's the day that tens of thousands, no, hundreds of thousands of people pour into the city to run in the boston marathon and to cheer on their friends and loved ones who are running the marathon. three people were killed today in those two explosions that were apparently timed to go off at the finish line of the marathon. among the three people dead is a child. an 8-year-old boy. more than 130 people have been injured. as i said, we're at massachusetts general hospital tonight where within the last hour trauma surgeons presiovide some details of the injured people who he has treated over the course of the day. >> there's a variety of injuries, probably the most common serious injuries are combined lower ex

>> rachel, you may be able to hear pl there may be cheering. probably because there are police vehicles behind me coming through. every time a vehicle comes through, people start to applaud. there are more and more people coming on to the streets as you noted. we were in this neighborhood all day. it was eerily quiet. the only thing you saw was increased police presence near the helicopter overhead and media. everybody else was obeying orders to stay inside. when it was lifted a little after 6 okay. people slowly trickling out. as we know, there is another order to stay inside for those folks who run franklin street. that is where the suspect was apprehended and an officer lean offered and said, hey, he's in custody. they had him. every time they come through, very first police car that i saw come through, the officer driving ahad a huge grin on his face. as you mentioned, the suspect was captured alive. we believe it was a gunshot wound. it is not clear what kind of condition he is in. an ambulance went by. did not appear he was in it but ever

for both, this is really historic to be part of this big dance, rachel. you've been following the louisville story, kind of the darling story of kevin ware. it's been a while since '96 since they made it to this point. what are the strengths that louisville has this go round that really makes them a serious contender up against michigan? >> what's so interesting about this dynamic and this match-up, first you have two great teams, two offensive teams so we should hopefully get a really good basketball game tomorrow night. they're going to score a lot of points hopefully if they both play up to their abilities. the ncaa this year has had a lot of blowouts or defenseless games in the tournament. >> maybe this go-round just seems so much more electric. maybe it is because of kevin ware's story. >> it is not an amazing thing. here is a team who is the number one overall seed. they're supposed to be the big, bad one everyone's rooting against. this young kid who's handled this adversity so well. they've become the sentimental favorite. you are going to see the

>> well, good evening, rachel. senior administration officials tell me that president obama will continue to be briefed on this situation throughout the evening. right now the white house is approaching this as an act of terror. i can read you the latest statement that we have from a senior administration official and i believe we have a graphic of that as well. any event with multiple explosive devices is clearly an act of terror and will be approached as an act of terror. however, we don't know yet who carried out this attack. and a thorough investigation will have to determine whether it was planned and carried outpy a troshist group, foreign or domestic. now i can tell you that is really the key question here tonight. was this carried out by a terrorist group homegrown? or a foreign terrorist group. and the white house just simply does not know. there are still a lot of questions about who is responsible for what happened today in boston. the president was made aware of the events at about 3:00 this afternoon.

tavis: when i first saw the screenplay before i saw the film, i was concerned whether or rachel andry of jackie might slow down the story or in some way get in the way of the larger story about what he was up against, the politics, the era, etc. i went to see the movie and a few hours later i was processing what i had seen. and had to solely -- teles let myself and just recant and back up. what made it work is that i had seen something on the screen which was the love story, which was such a part of how he overcame to respect the jackie robinson story is a much broader story than is contained in the limits of the period of time "42"focuses on. he was an extraordinary athlete. he was a very successful student at ucla. he served his country in the war. not in the war, but in the army. he was court-martialed by the army, which we did bring up in the film. he went on after his baseball career to be very important and instrumental in the civil rights movement. all the way up through 1955- 1957 when the black power movement took the civil rights movement out of hands of others and accepted

rachelle mentioned software. if that was all it took then giant multi-billion dollar businesses wouldn't have these teams because they would replace it with software. the reality is it's more than software. the current bill would mean that any small business over a tiny size using the internet to sell could be audited and tax enforcement in the tax courts of businesses -- states thousands of miles away. >> ifill: we'll talk about the states. rachelle bernstein, do we have any way of knowing or measuring how much money states are losing by people who buy across state lines and don't pay the tax? >> the national council of state legislatures said the number is $23 billion this year. so yes, that's a lot of money. the states right now are hurting for funds. this would help them not have to pass new taxes to be able to collect the money that is needed. the other thing is that, again, as the growth of the internet goes on, if this situation isn't corrected either state sales taxes are going to have to rise or states a
