big game. >> yeah, betty, and a big if. look, they've struggled with canada so this is going to be quite a showdown on the ice. the u.s. men lost four years ago in an overtime game in vancouver. sidney crosby sending home the gold and sending team usa home with a bronze medal. they come into this game obviously looking for revenge from that, but also from the heart ache of last night. the women's hockey team looking like they had things sown up. just under four minutes left in the game and they were ahead by two goals but it did not work out. a furious comeback by the canadians and two goals, the last with less than a minute to go sends this game into overtime and overtime a questionable call but doesn't matter. canada with the win and the u.s. women just frustrated more than anything because they've worked so hard. and really bonded as a team, betty. so it was sad to see them go. now, look, i know this is the last time we're going to get to talk from here in russia so i'd like to, if you'll indulge me for just a minute, sh

>> that's a good question, betty, we'll see around 2:00. a state decimated by unemployment, nevada over the last few years but this is really a strategy play by democrats. obviously, a lot of folks on capitol hill believe in restoring unemployment benefits. republicans would like an opportunity to try and craft some of their own language within this bill. democrats countered that by saying, look, we're a. doing something made by republicans that make sure millionaires don't collect unemployment benefits. anyway, with that being said, the strategy here is to pump up income equality. put democrats on the side of the working people. and try and shield anything away from the health care law which is something that will be problematic in the midterms. now as to what this bill actually looks like, it costs $6.4 billion. the way in which it gets that revenue is something called pension smoothing. it's very complicated. and that's also something that's problematic for some republicans who do it that as one told me, quote, gimmick. even if this does

please join me in welcoming betty medsger, bonnie raines, and keith forsyth. [applause] [applause] [applause] >> good evening. it is wonderful to be here near the home of the burglaries in the home of the investigation that was done by 200 fbi agents. in case you haven't seen him recently, you may have heard the names keith forsyth and bonnie raines and john raines. and it's especially nice to be here in this immediate area and this is the neighborhood that bill and his wife lived in uris prior to her death in 2010. including coming here for events. if you are hearing and have this enthusiasm that you know a lot about the burglaries. and so i won't rehash the details except for some things out like to say. it really began in 1970 when bill had a very powerful idea. as you move from peace organization to peace organization that year, people kept telling him that they thought that there were spies and there met. he would not believe it. he was not someone who speculated or to believe in conspiracies. as the time went on, he thought people were imagining things a

>> great question, betty. well, it is the polish prime minister who said it best, the agreement which he helped to broker by the way, it had not yet been reached. what he meant by that is that it has been settled, he said, and what has been settled he said is the agreement's draft, and he makes a distinction between the agreement and the draft now. meaning that there is a road map and it includes the early elections in december of this year, and it also goes back to and reforms the 2004 constitution. the one by the way that shared power between the president and the parliament before president yanukovych and the ole gashg patrons skewed in their favorite. and it includes the formation of the transitional government in the nex few days, but it is words on paper, bet tichlt it is a path to real change when, and if and when, i should say, the ukrainians, a very divided people begin to act as a nation, as a people. that is going to be exes treemly difficult. the orange revolution triggered the election ark and the

the only republican on this list is betty ford. in fact, several of the recent republican first ladies made the list of those first ladies who could have done more while they were in office. no first lady is a runaway choice as to those who could have done more, but laura bush, pat nixon, mrs. eisenhower, barbara bush are first ladies who could have done more. clearly eleanor roosevelt stands out. abigail adams, dolly madison, really before the era of partisan politics took place as we know it today, but there is a small bias that we can perceive amongst these historians and political scientists. >> one other thing is that a lot of these first ladies on the top 10 list are within our lifetime beginning with jacqueline kennedy, hillary rosalynn, betty ford. is there another bias for contemporary first ladies? >> these first ladies are better known to all of our historians but they also had a much more wider and important role in the modern era than some of the early first ladies. still, it's north wotey to see some of the early firs
