i made my case to the second district of virginia prior to the virginia primary that the sum of all things that donald trump has said and done really is all of his adult life led me to the view that a trump presidency would really harm our nation. i'm not a representative prone to hyperbole. i don't throw things out in the extreme. in this matter looking at the sum of his actions, i could not support him, what he said about any number of things, for example, the deliberate targeting of not only a terrorist but the terrorist family. i think the insult that he hurled at senator mccain was the first thing that got my attention that he really didn't understand our united states military. virginia's second congressional district has the highest concentration of men and women in uniform in the country. by the nature of our commands, we have a disproportionate loss. our gold star families are here. many of them. and he's just disconnected on so many levels and i believe he would be a danger to our country. >> you'll vote for gary johnson, the wi libertarian party. are you concerned that if others

she currently lives in richmond, virginia. she has a husband, jason, and two daughters who you'll become intimately familiar with when you read this book. so let me tell you about this wonderful book that we're presenting here today, "something must be done about prince edward county." it is a new york times bestseller, it's a washington post notable nonfiction. and for those that want to support kristen, it is up for library of virginia people's choice award, so you can go to the web site to get this book voted as a people's choice award. it's an interesting book not only because i'm a lawyer and i love race relations topics, brown v. board of education is something that i studied in depth when i was in law school, but also for those of you that do not know that gaithersburg was voted recently the most diverse city in america. so those of us here today who live in gaithersburg may not fully appreciate that race relations were not always as they have been. and that's what this book is about. kristen grew up in farmville, virgi

from the virginia legislature. it's during those years that he becomes friends with thomas jefferson and also becomes very much antagonistic to people like patrick henry. he comes to really dislike the virginia legislation during those years. he felt the virginia legislature was counter to national interest and he's part of a group of people including washington who want the government to move toward stronger national power and they want to be respected by the european company countries and have the revenue sources to pay the soldiers and have commercial regulation, they want all sorts of things and they see the virginia legislature in other state legislatures as working against those interests slowly for this sort of individual interest of each state. >> host: i don't know whether you directly do this but i get the impression that george washington and hamilton are on one side and james madison and thomas jefferson on the other at that time. i'm not sure that's right but could you tell me what's the difference bet
