we supported george mcmillan. george mcmillan lost. george mcmillan lost in the primary. wallace was on the train anyway. there were blacks running for county commission, blacks running for the legislature, blacks running for everything. as always, we were told blacks were on the straight democratic ticket because we didn't have -- there was no republican out there and he was running as the republican opponent. i will tell you right now, if somebody raised the question, saying both of them are racism. i said, it maybe. if so, one is a rising son and one is a setting sun. that's what happened. alabama democratic conference never endorsed wallace. >> we are out in front of the governor's mansion where george wallace lived for 16 years. don in claremont, california, good evening. >> you are on c-span's contenders program. thank you. it is a great honor. i love how you handled the tony morrison quote on envy of the world. priceless. i went in the marine corps in 1970, left ear re, pennsylvania, got down to the south and i was amazed how the southerners were treating everybody

george packer, richard holbrooke. i use the word complicated. that doesn't begin to do justice to him but why did you want to write about him and talk about his ambition, what drove him and frankly the first quarter of the book is about vietnam . >> so he died in december 2010. he was actually stricken in hillary clinton's office, the secretary of state's office which was a fitting high drama characteristic of him. a few weeks later his widow offered me his personal papers and i knew holbrooke a bit, not very well and i thought, i have a chance to explore a flamboyant, mesmerizing, maddening character whose career covered the past century from kennedy to obama, from vietnam to afghanistan through an intimate look at his diaries and other papers so i said yes without really quite knowing why i had said yes. holbrooke, as soon as i began to read those letters and somewhere as you say judy he began his career in south vietnam, actually at the mekong delta and as soon as i started reading his letters i knew i had made a good choice because he was su

i don't think that george lost. i think george moved on to do much greater things much like you folks were just talking about with the world hunger program. george has survived wars, being an anti-war person, yet willing to step up for our country. i think he's a great peacekeeper, and he understands world politics like we do not understand. my question is for our country, who in 2012 is the closest candidate that can carry up mcgovern's policies? who's the closest or best option that we have? >> mr. witcover? >> it's barack obama. i don't think that any of the republican candidates represent anything akin to things that george mcgovern run for president in 1972 or objectives that he's carried out the rest of his life. >> scott farris, what kind of president would george mcgovern have been? >> you know, i think he actual hi would have been a pretty good president i guess i base that on the food for peace program. one of the things you need to bring to the presidency is a certain executive management skill. what he w

the one person he tells is george bush. that is a friendship that is, in fact, powerful and transformative. and that's human, right? so to have him give us that letter, i think, showed us a side in a way he hadn't. another letter to his wife, his dying wife, mary stewart, writes him a letter. because, in fact, she does know she's dying. she hides it in the house, and when he's handed this letter, he starts crying even to this day. it's a very human story, not introspective, not psychologically open the way holbrooke kind of was. i think george's character study of holbrookene is so -- holbrooke is so powerful, so rich. but baker is a human person, one of the things that made this book a lot of fun. >> and that letter -- >> my book, to be able to do my book depended on holbrooke -- [inaudible] you were able to talk to james baker. not having richard holbrooke looking over my shoulder. and, in fact, he wouldn't is have given me his papers at all, and all the people who talked to me didn't have to worry about what he would say

there is only one george wallace. and the physical problems of distance and traffic precludes fewer rallies than wallace wants. where wallace does appear returns gather momentum, tripling and often quadrupling. each day becomes a race within itself to cover as much ground as possible. and all the while there are problems in established areas. new areas, phone calls, meetings. business from alabama. all important. and each taking valuable time. morale, enthusiasm. a constant problem in any campaign. and california was no different. high or low, it can ignite anywhere in the campaign organization, spreading quickly from staff to workers. two primary factors boosted wallace workers in the golden state -- the realization that the 1968 presidential race is going to be a close one and the ever-increasing waves of support for governor wallace. california law, aimed at keeping new parties out of california, proved not enough to stop the wallace grassroots movement. victory in california clearly pointed the way to new successe

george bush had won. move on. and so, it was important that there be some drama. >> reporter: and there was plenty of drama. >> in accordance with the laws of the state of florida, i, hereby, declare governor george w. bush the winner of florida's 25 electoral votes for the president of the united states. >> good evening. >> reporter: the margin, 537 votes. >> secretary cheney and i are honored and humbled to have won the state of florida, which gives us the needed electoral votes to win the election. >> reporter: and lieberman fired back. >> this evening, the secretary of state of florida has decided to certify what, by any reasonable standard, is an incomplete and inaccurate count of the votes cast in the state of florida. >> part of why i went out, clearly, was to say to the public, this ain't over, yet. you know? it ain't over till it's over. >> reporter: and it wasn't over. just halftime. the democrats went to the friendly state supreme court and won big. >> the circuit court shall order a manual recount of a

it was george h w. it has been so long ago i can't remember, but i think maybe he had jim baker with him. couldn't get him off the court good we were out there two hours. hours.ed there for two at the end of the match, to give you a cute story on george h w, he looked at me, and my dad had been the tennis coach in the 50 -- 1950's, and president bush looked at me and i asked my dad have you ever met him, and he said no. he looked at me and said how is your dad, george, doing these days? one other quick story, i was in the dallas airport in the 1980's, and here comes jim baker with a couple of his bodyguards, maybe. i came out of the shadows and recognized him and i rushed over to him and it's like, these days you can't do that, but i said mr. baker, cliff ritchie, good to see you again. he was so nice. i just had to call. one question i would like to know -- was jim baker involved in politics before meeting president george h w? guest: that's a great question. thank you for the tennis reminiscence. i th

eight bill clinton is running against president george bush. there are two things that i'm gonna stress during this debate. one, bill clinton's economic plan, and his agenda, will make matters much much worse. he will raise your taxes, he will increase spending, he will make government bigger, jobs will be lost. second, bill clinton does not have strength nor the character to be president of the united states. let us look at the agendas, president bush wants to hold the line on taxes. bill clinton wants to raise taxes. for a balanced budget, bill clinton is opposed. we want to be formal legal system because it is costly. bill clinton wants a status quo. we want to reform the health care system, bill clinton wants to ration health care. we want to empower people, bill clinton wants to empower government. june of this year, june of this year america is democracy of the world. he is wrong. sometime during these next four years there will be a crisis. there will be an international crisis, i can tell you where it will be. i can't even tell you the

bill clinton is running against president george bush. there are two things that i'm going to stress during this debate. one, bill clinton's economic plan and his agenda will make matters much, much worse. he will raise your taxes. he will increase spending. he will make government bigger, jobs will be lost. second -- bill clinton does not have the strength nor the character to be president of the united states. let us -- let us look at the agendas. president bush wants to hold the line on taxes. bill clinton wants to raise taxes. president bush is for a balanced budget amendment. bill clinton opposed. we want to reform the legal system it's too costly, bill clinton wants status quo. reform health care, bill clinton wants to ration health care. bill clinton wants to empower government we want to empower people. bill clinton says america is the mockery of the world. he is wrong. at some time during these next four years, there is going to be a crisis. there will be an international crisis. i can't tell you where it's going to be. i can't e

let me remind you, george, dr. conley yesterday refused several times to answer the question about whether or not the president had been on oxygen. at one point he said, quote, yesterday and today he was not on oxygen. now we learned, again from dr. conley, in fact the president was on oxygen on friday. now, that's just a basic fact. he came out and he told us what, you know, seemed like a very serious and factual briefing. it's such a problem when you have the political team at the white house, but the medical team at the white house come out and give a briefing with information that turns out to be flatly wrong. hopefully this time he's given us information that's correct. >> he was trying to be more specific today. tried to answer the questions. he said he's trying to be as upbeat as he can. on one level you can understand that. on the other level is that the job of the president's physician when he's presenting the information publicly? >> yeah, i mean, at least even in doing that he told us about the two very

george: it will be both. to primes both do tend the markets, the real big event, the paramount event risk is the u.s. election, which you talked about. , think there is huge potential interest rates and capital flows. so we think the potential by the presidency is underpriced in terms of the impact if we do get that. tom: what is the direction on that? significantly weaker dollar. we have already seen the first signs of dollar weakness in q2. potentialere is more for dollar weakness, especially against the emerging currencies, and even though the euro has been weak over the last few days, we have seen how well asian currencies are holding up, especially in china this morning. tom: an unfair question, but it is unfair friday, george saravelos -- are you talking about a 3% move or something much larger, or are you talking about -- george: i think much larger, tom. we could potentially be talking 15% lower move, especially against emerging markets. when you look at some of the things that we are worried about, h

as i mentioned, george mcclellan plans to move five corps through the louder valley. two other corps were supposed to arrive along the orange and alexandria railroad and meet up somewhere along the gap. so mcclellan is going to be getting reinforcements throughout the campaign. they embarq with 100,000 men or so. both armies have been rebuilt , essentially from the losses , they suffered during the summer of 1862. mcclellan, as i mentioned, will basically be cutting off himself from the supply lines. the soldiers are going to be marching with 10 days' worth of rations, and they are going to have to move through the loudoun valley quick enough before those 10 days' of rations expire and run out. their goal is to reach the railroad, which mcclellan is going to start use that as his supply line. the goal, besides getting between the confederate army in richmond -- for the confederate army, they are going to be reacting slower. the first crossing of union soldiers across the river is october 26. we will not react until two days later, once he realizes this is a serious mo

but who was george sears greene? we already heard general sickles's praise for george sears greene. but who was this man who work so hard to anchor the union army right flank? george sears greene was arguably one of the oldest at the battle of gettysburg. he was born in rhode island in 1801. he was a descendent of one of the colonial settlers. he was also a descendent of general nathanael greene of revolutionary war fame. he would go to let the school in providence before he was set to go to round university to continue his studies. unfortunately, family and financial setbacks would force him to move to new york city to find a job inside a dry goods store. while in new york city and working to provide income for himself, he received an appointment to the united states military academy. he will graduate with high honors, second in his class. he would serve as a lieutenant of artillery and go on to teach mathematics for 4 years. he would fall in love. upon graduation and moving up the chain of command, he would eventually be sent to maine and stationed at fort sullivan. when he took t

we also saw in the year 2000 george w. bush was ahead narrowly against al gore and most of the polls in the popular vote in 2000, but just a few days before the election news was reported in maine that george bush had had dui, driving under the influence arrest and conviction years before near kennebunkport, maine, where the bush family residence is. he had not disclose that dui, and the news just shook his campaign and may have been enough in a tight race to tip voters from bush to gore so that al gore won the popular vote and george bush narrowly won the electoral college after 37 day ordeal about the outcome in florida where the election hung. it's likely that we will have some sort of late in the game election surprise. those are a few suggestions and takeaways about what to expect, and i be happy to field questions. -- i would be -- >> thank you very much for that. that was a great overview of the book, and it -- if folks have question i would encourage them to click the ask the question tab at the bottom. they can as

george w. bush, he was ahead narrowly against al gore in most of the polls in the popular vote in 2000. but just a few days before the election, news was reported in maine that george bush had had a dui, a driving under the influence arrest and conviction years before, near ken kennedy - near the family residence and he had not reported that dui and the news shook his campaign and may have been enough in a tight race to tip voters from bush to gore so that al gore won the popular vote and george bush narrowly won the electoral college of a 37-day ordeal about the outcome in florida where the election hung. so it's likely that we will have some sort of late in the game election surprise. so those are few suggestions and takeways about what to expect and i'd be happy to field questions. >> thank you very much for that. that was a great overview of the book and if folks have questions i would encourage them to again click the "ask a question" tab at the bottom. they can ask a question. i did want

george bush has concentrated on every other country in the world. when are you guys going to start worrying about our people here in the united states of america and get our country moving again? [applause] mr. bruno: again, i will ask the audience: please do not applaud, it takes time from the candidates. all right, now we have five minutes for discussion. go ahead, vice president quayle. vice president quayle: the answer to that is very simple. we are not going to raise taxes to create new jobs. we have a plan to create new jobs. but that wasn't the question. the question dealt with qualifications. teamwork and partnership may be fine in the congress, senator gore -- that's what congress is all about, compromise, teamwork, working things out. but when you're president of the united states or when you're vice president and you have to fill in like i did the night of the crisis in the philippines, you've got to make a decision, you've got to make up your mind. bill clinton, running for president of the united states, said this about the persian gulf

>>usually when playoff baseball is under way you find george henderson also known as crazy george front row center at the coliseum this season instead. >>we found him hear it from the u.s. are older, but just because he can attend a games in person due to the coronavirus that doesn't mean crazy george. >>has lost step. crazy george has dedicated decades of his life to cheering for sports teams in the bay area and beyond you can't miss him leading the crowd with his big smile and loud rise. >>love the fans cheered for him and that's what i do i can that extra energy the players make son play a little harder might bring in that extra rendering they gave in fact 39 years ago the a's yankees playoff game, crazy george introduced the way to the world. >>he says he held on to this video as proof. >>it going like i love about motive. they energy and it kept going and going around about 7 times and the never saw anything like it in their life and they were celebrating and screaming he hopes to be back inside the coliseum next season to celebrate the waves 40th anniversary in the meantime he's r

clean air because of the leadership of george bush. it is the most comprehensive clean air act in our history. we are firmly behind preserving the environment and we have a good record on which to stand. what will be their position when it comes to the environment? i say it is a false choice. you ought to ask somebody in mitigating circumstances, a uaw work in michigan if they think that increasing standards are a good idea. you ought to talk to the coal miners that are talking about a coal tax. the choice is not environment or jobs. with prudent policied we can have both. >> i red senator gore's book about the environment, and i don't know how he could pay for his proposals you know the marshall plan of environment and so forth. and also i am told by some experts that the things that he fears most may not be all that dangerous according to some scientists. you can over do, i'm told, environmental cleaning up. if you purify the pond, the water lilies die. you know i love this planet, and i want it to stay here, but i don't like to have

to discuss this and more i'm joined by my guest george some yelling in budapest he's an author and a you tuber at the gaggle and here in moscow we have dmitri bobbitt she is a political analyst and an editor at interest me internet media project right gentlemen crossed out rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i was appreciate it ok i was going to put it past that george we have a cease fire we heard that there are some violations but at this point as we're speaking right now it is still holding and i've been looking at a lot of the reporting this is only a tiny baby step i mean this issue is not going to be resolved that hasn't been resolved for 30 years and i'll be really honest with you i don't see a resolution coming into play what is most important and with these negotiations in moscow with the leadership of armenia and azerbaijan is this at least the 1st step of stop the killing where do we stand george go ahead. i agree that that's a very important 1st step violations of cease fire in the media hours after. the announcement of a cease fire that's to b

i sincerely, george mcgovern. doctor kissinger, and also, it will be a few moments where we can get him. go ahead please. mister president, hi henry how are you. i just wanted to extend my congratulations, we all knew it was gonna happen. we got our 60%. one can be to happy, almost all states maybe except minnesota. you know, this was a break. he was very gracious in the beginning, and then he went right back [inaudible]. he said i look forward to working with you and your supporters. no i'm not gonna sit up and that's for no war. i could argue with bobby about it, but it's sensitive sort of thing. he was on generous, i responded, in a very different way, but i'm not gonna say much time. >> you're looking at one of the qcard from their mcgovern concession speech, in the museum in south dakota. where he says we did not relative the support of policies were the glory, but we do love the nation. and later on the nation will be better because we never once gave up in the long battle to renew its oldest ideals, and to

that in the george floyd case , two issues have come up. one is the fact that the police officer by every account and looking at the video of that acted improperly in maintaining the pressureof his knee on george floyd's neck for such a long time . that seems very very clear. we don't know everything that happened before that, but from that point on in other words from the point that the police officer with his knee on george floyd's neck and exerted force, that went on for far too long. secondly go and this is important, so that shows lack of proper training on the police officer. so the caller is criticizing that, the color is very well justified in criticizing the apparent lack of proper training on the police officers parts for they are here to use the training that they might have received. actually though those police officers including the one who exerted pressure on george floyd's neck and killed him, that police officer and the others that were there are being prosecuted. they were indicted. they are being prosecuted and apparently

you know you know george really unite. the gaggle about how please be aware that the d.o.j. was starting antitrust against google unfortunately an american problem in the u.k. do you can have antitrust against political parties it is i would be all for in the end to break up those do big parties because the fact of the matter is the most common political affiliation in the united states is not affiliated ok they the majority of the population of voting age is politically home. yes ok and beat and as long as they remain homeless the status quo will be maintained except for changes on the margins ok and it's all about you know it's it's a celebrity politics is what it's about nobody wants to talk about the substance because if you did most people of pull out of a pitchfork and they should go ahead george yes yes that's right and it's kind of interesting that when the pot is attempting to push their way into the united states they were met with or roche's opposition by the maids the but is that in their personal tied them up in court because it's quite hard to get on the balanc

guest marcus papadopoulos in london he's the editor of politics 1st magazine and in budapest we have george samueli he is an author and a you tuber the goggle or a gentleman cross uprose in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate it or i was going to london marcus says you know we've been watching over the last few years a closer relationship between moscow and beijing and as a matter of fact a couple days ago when asked about the tension military alliance which these 2 countries do not know right now but that's possibility putin said this the russian president theoretically it's quite possible to imagine with without any doubt our cooperation with china is bolstering the defense because capacity of china's army terrain will show how it will develop we can't exclude it we've never heard this before from the russian president what's changed go ahead. in a period of 5 decades russia and china have gone from the brink of war with each other which could have it both nuclear weapons to a situation today where both countries have formed an informal sure c.g. par

for me to sit here, hearing george floyd died of an overdose. he died because a man was kneeling on his neck for nine minutes. >> i agree with that. >> in regards to him being a model citizen, nobody deserved that. >> i said it's horrible. >> reporter: in the breonna taylor, officer hang kin son charged with endangering neighbors when he opened fire but not in connection with taylor's death. he's pled not guilty. one juror saying they didn't hear evidence with regard to other officers involved. >> what went through your head, you were not indicted? >> my wife cried. i was just -- oh my goodness, you know. this part's over. >> i heard about the grand jury decision shortly after ruling. i kind of figured -- it would end up like that, probably. just because that's the way things go. it's the police. >> i'm not going to sit here and act like -- playing the big victim card, but i mean, i was a victim in this as well. my family has been a victim in this. they have had to go in hiding. they have had death threats. i've got a little kid that has been af

is basically the the makings of washington i mean and and they did it with eyes wide open go ahead george yes without question. what. has happened since the end of the cold war has been a massive expansion of nato something that the russians will be to play war and they go to the existential threat. the united states withdrawing brahmans key military agreements with russia most recently from the i.n.f. treaty but before that from the a.b.m. treaty and now also they're planning to withdraw from the open skies agreement. and now you know it could be that the new start treaty is also for the history. so that's one thing but the other thing which is over real terms on russia is the level of a big true that is directed toward russia and the strong ordinary be from the tomboys press but from the very highest levels oh the u.s. government to talk about the. the people who are in the executive branch with people who are in congress. and of course you have the media stoking that so when you have. the absence of any omes agreements a bus to go all the train developing buses it's sort of possibility

for everybody to jump to conclusions with regards to george floyd. i -- after my father passed away in the '90s, i ended up with addiction issues, so i have a lot of information and, experience with the police. i got in trouble. i'm clean now, but, you know, the bottom line is that if everybody put that video together and waited to jump to conclusions like they have, you ouuld see that the bottom line is george floyd was saying he could not breathe in the backseat of the car. athe insisted on getting out. there's a video that hasn't been circulated. he insisted on getting out of the car because he couldn't breathe. he was acting very i rat ig. erratic. he was very erratic before he got out of the car. i found his autopsy report. it shows he's got over three times a lethal dose of fentanyl, the same fentanyl that that's been killingsa people all over america. >> host: congressman barr, i'll give you the final minute and a half. first, though, that's all we have this morning. >> guest: it is very important to look at the entirety of an incident like we

but it will get through in a george bush administration, a george bush administration that is committed to the environment. now the greenhouse effect is an important environmental issue. it is important for us to get the data in, to see what alternatives we might have to the fossil fuels, and make sure we know what we're doing. and there are some explorations and things that we can consider in this area. the drought highlighted the problem that we have, and therefore, we need to get on with it, and in a george bush administration, you can bet that we will. judy woodruff: john, a question for senator quayle. john margolis: senator, as vice president your most important contribution would be the advice you gave the president. one of the most troubling facts that's going to face the new administration is the fact that the united states has now become the world's largest debtor nation. in 1987, foreigners underwrote our debts to the tune of about $138 billion. last week a top official of the japanese economic planning agency bragged that japan now is in a position to influence the value of

she is an attorney and a former state director for bernie sanders and 2016 and in dallas we cross to george c. he is a businessman conservative political leader as well as a former senior advisor to marco rubio's 2016 presidential campaign or across up rules in effect that means you can jump and how you want and how it's appreciated all that's going to georgia in dallas that as i said in my introduction in one could argue maybe you want to agree with me one can argue that it was a dead heat neither side won neither candidate won or lost in that debate but for very different reasons here i want to focus on this program the impacts of this debate and as it may impact the final results on november 3rd so obviously you're a supporter of donald trump how did he do in this debate. well i've i agree that this was a hard one to analyze i think if you look at the kennedy next debate which is outcome determinative and the rain in cardiff bay which is outcome determinative i don't think this one's going to do that i think it was so canny and so unprecedented in what i would say a negative stance you'v

and george osborne is here. not wearing hi—vis or a customised hard hat, but looking fine as it is, definitely. right, there is loads of stuff to talk about the economy today, because rishi sunak announced what i am going to call the pre—midwinter economic programme, having announced the economic winter programme before and now changing it to basically make it more generous, to help businesses who are in areas where there is lots of coronavirus restrictions and also to make his newjob support scheme a bit more generous. yeah. in other words, he has come back again, because the first one did not do enough. shall we have a listen to how he described it? we have an economic plan that will protect the jobs and livelihoods of the british people, wherever they live and whatever their situation. and just as we have throughout this crisis, we will listen and respond to people's concerns as the situation demands. and i make no apology for responding to changing circumstances. and so today, we go further. george, what

george w. bush more than the directors showed as he got a little too close and certainly failed with that slamdunk meeting to push back to say we don't have a very strong case. and to say did you cook the books? and those to deny vociferously and it's hard to make the studies that look at this that there isn't any hard evidence that the books were cooked by the cia they just got it wrong. which is different. >> . . . . an unfortunate statement by him and they have rebuilt the day before he got fired and he knew right away he was set up. of course he doesn't deny saying it and he admits it is probably the dumbest thing ever said. it doesn't change the tenor of the meeting with which they present than that by national security team found evidence. if you read it was surprising about that is that on every critical issue the agency of the government that should know the most biological weapons or chemical weapons or missiles or nuclear weapons was in strong defense of nuclear weapons in los alamos.
