ed: very clearly. the economy is still stuck down in a lot of places, like airlines, casinos, hotels. maybe only 10%, 20%. but they are still very much shut down. when we get a vaccine, they will open up. i think the economy will have a similar to what it did in the third quarter of this year with 30% growth. it is almost mechanical. you shut it down, things collapse. at some point, in the second, third quarter, you open up, and those areas i mentioned like airlines to combat, -- come back, and all of the places associated with them, like the restaurants in the airport, will come back, and you'll have a bounce in the economy. now is the data right showing massive sales of christmas trees, as you point out, but people are also moving out of urban centers, buying houses, and there could be other structural reasons why the christmas tree survey, for example, is strong. do you see long-term problems whoseecific people situation is way worse than before the pandemic? how do those people get through this? yo

epstein's op-ed are valid. they should be addressed, not mocked. still, retracting the op-ed, as some folks have demanded, would be like pretending it had never existed. that would let its author off too easily. plus, who are we to tell a newspaper what it may, and may not, print? so, there's an argument to be made for being sparing with the term doctor, for clarity's sake. but what about its deeper meaning? i went to sun coast community high school and riviera beach, florida. a school with lots of doctors, among the teachers. my spanish teacher, dr. henry. my history teacher, dr. olds. my philosophy teacher, dr. howard. my vice principal, dr. gloria crutchfield. over that time, that title deepened my reverence for education. they were here, in a high school, teaching me. wow. now, jill biden clearly reveres being an educator. dr. b is just who she is. a teacher focused on helping people who tend not to make the ivy leagues. she taught at a community college, near washington, while serving as second lady. bouncing between giving speeches and gradin

maybe ed would disagree with me about franklin. i would argue washington was the most famous man in the world. he was younger than franklin. he was better equipped to lead the nation in this way. he was one of the few people that could bring the states together. he felt a sense of purpose and duty not because he wanted to be president. i don't think he did. i think he felt like he had to be. otherwise the nation wouldn't work. >> many thanks for that and for noting his reluctance to attend the convention. as you noted, if he weren't there, the thing would not have succeeded. it was his actual presence and knowledge that he would serve as the first president that created the unity necessary to ensure the convention's success. ed, talk about franklin and washington's contribution to the convention. they didn't say much. washington hardly spoke. franklin famously said at the end, i always wondered if the chair was a rising or setting sun. now i think it's setting. franklin did have a greater role behind the scenes, especially in helpi

we succeed ed in immunizing 80% of the available population. we did it faster, far less expensively and more effectively than would have been possible with standard techniques. fpz the vaccine had taken. 98.4% had satisfactory vaccines, better than expect ed. unparalleled success when you consider it was carried out with such a small team. also by observing a large population after its first smallpox vaccination became valuable information about immunity. we worked closely with the people and shared a lot of knowledge and experience. but perhaps most important of all, the united states accomplished together something of great promise to the world. for what was achieved here on b this small pacific island can be all people. >>> you're watching "american history tv." every weekend on c-span 3 explore our nation's past. c-span 3 created by america's cable television companies as a public service and brought to you today by your television provider. >>> weeknight this is month we feature "american history tv" programs to preview what's available ev

ed calling from pennsylvania on the democratic line. ed, good morning. ed, are you there? i think we lost ed. so i will ask a question of my own here. we were just talking about the national election for the presidency and the fact that texas didn't have standing because they are connected to -- the elections are run by states. should there be a national election for the u.s. presidency? guest: if you ask me, i would move towards saying yes because right now the system of the electoral college really creates 50 separate states which -- plus district of columbia, 51 separate elections of where effectively it means only about a half dozen states from a -- a dozenstates states matter from a political perspective. a nationwide election for president with nationwide standards on voting, eligibility, and things like that, would encourage what? perhaps presidents to represent the entire country and not just what? a segment or party. host: we'd like to thank david schultz. hamline political science professor for coming on this morning and talking about the rise in executive power.

i misspoke when i said it was your op-ed. do you think your approach can be emulated by other universities? >> well, we certainly emulated others. we stayed in the regular touch with other schools who had opened, or tried to. and tried to learn from their successes as well as their mistakes and shared our own. every school is different. we never pass any judgment on the decisions of other schools, either not to open or to close, having done so. this was a tough problem. and probably different. and just as public officials in different states correctly, i think, addressed it in localized specific ways. but, no, i mean, we certainly -- some of the things we did are a broader application. and folks are more than welcome to study what went well and what didn't. >> governor, tell me about the 2770 who contracted of course? >> what i can tell you, most of these were very mild. more than 80% were asymptomatic or had one symptom, maybe headache, loss of taste or smell. i asked our folks at the beginning, our medical team, to construc

the op-ed hit. euro-dollar is 120 feet of what happened to christine lagarde next week, driven by the weaker dollar but the ecb wants to once again get down the euro strength read can we hit 1%? down, below $45 a barrel. a lot of this has to do with the surprise in stockpiles in the u.s. demand coming back into the market and whether or not opec will be able to fight that demand or at these prices, they want to get more crude back into the market. now in the u.s., stimulus under discussion again after six months of a stalemate. nancy pelosi presented fresh democratic proposals while senate majority leader mitch mcconnell floated a revision of the much smaller plan to fellow republicans. telling ahin, right, congressional hearing he was 5equired by law to move $45 billion in unspent pandemic relief money into an account that locked away from joe biden's administration. >> the economy has not actually performed better than expected. more resilient to spikes in cases than expected. nonetheless, we have

let us get more political reaction and speak to sir ed davey whojoins us reaction and speak to sir ed davey who joins us now. reaction and speak to sir ed davey whojoins us now. we heard from reaction and speak to sir ed davey who joins us now. we heard from the labour party a crystal clear position what is your position with the liberal democrats, as clear? yes, iam the liberal democrats, as clear? yes, i am surprised he seems to have read the deal. i haven't so our final position will be determined by studying the deal. but let me tell you this clearly, if what we have heard from the prime minister is absolutely true when we read the text, it looks like this deal is going to be a bad deal, it is going to impoets a lot of raid tape on businesses at the border, lots of form filling, costs, delays and for oui’ form filling, costs, delays and for our services sector which is 80% of our services sector which is 80% of our economy, it doesn't like like there is anything for that huge part of the economy, and that would be bad for britain, bad forjobs and liberal democrats couldn't suppo

but they are robust -- guy: ed, good morning. it is guy. how much will be vaccine impact the commodity complex? it was priced into the commodity complex last month. we love oil. the exuberance, there's a little optimism about the vaccine. things have calmed down. i think the opec decision to gradually put oil back on the market is helping the oil side, , there is more of a curb your enthusiasm -- it's more about the title we took because most commodities got a little too frothy. vaccine penetration is too early in the year. alix: that is kind of what you to hoting about copper, to handle. when do we hit even higher levels? alix: -- ed: we think the buying pre-chinese new year may cause a get. it's hard to know -- may cause a dip. it's hard to know. the price would be -- factoring in a drought -- a drawdown in inventory we're still sing a surplus on the market. it we think that surplus will be disappearing by the end of the year. we are much more looking forward then we the year and have the continue price moving upward. i talked tox and mic

let's get right to that with ed clifford. do you agree? are we underpricing the risk of a blue senate? ed: to an extent that the market likes to have some sort of checks on power, particularly when there is a democratic president, historically returns for the market have been higher when you have a split congress an republican congress th when you've had a democratic president. but i wonder is if it is really just a one seat majority, how hard it would be for mcconnell and republicans to kick off one or two democrats in red leading states facing reelection in 2022 or 2024 for some of the more progressive agendas. i think with the market is more worried about is not necessarily marginal changes. about the very progressive tax policies that were a part of the biden platform during the election, and those ethic would be tough to get through with a very slight majority for democrats. alix: if that is the case, could we be looking at a $2000 stimulus check and more money coming out? or do you still think it will be moderated? that is really wha

. >> reporter: this morning, "the wall street journal" is defending its decision to publish an op-ed about dr. jill biden which critics have called sexist and demanning. in it joseph epstein argues she should drop doctor from her title because she's not a medical doctor. epstein writing a wise man once said that no one should call himself a doctor until he delivers a child. she earned her doctorate in education in 2007. responses have exploded on social media overnight. former first lady michelle obama writing, right now we're all seeing what also happens to so many professional women, whether their titles are doctor, ms., mrs. or even first lady. all too often our accomplishments are met with skepticisment even derision. the issue of whether first ladies can keep their previous jobs was famously addressed on the tv drama "the west wing." >> mrs. bartlett, i want -- >> dr. bartlett. when di stop being dr. bartlett? when in the campaign did i decide that women would like me more if i call myself mrs.? >> reporter: this morning the editor defending his decision to publish the piece say

op-eds are written daily on every conceivable topic. it was a snarky piece. the tone --i think jill biden was correct, the tone was pretty insulting. but basically, i think the point was -- and look. i am a retired teacher. i have a masters degree plus 45 hours. i could have easily gotten my doctor, had i chosen to do so. -- kind of wish i did, because my dad wanted me to. he did not graduate high school, and it would have made him proud. it was an endurance contest. i only know a few people who have their doctorate in education who really referred to themselves as doctor. of anhonestly a sign inferiority complex, in my view. we regard that as kind of silly, to be honest -- host: who is the "we" in that sentence? other teachers? caller: yes -- i agree with what the national review said. it does not necessarily imply intelligence, other than just being able to grind it out. i will say this, too. listen to joe biden. when het just joking said it was about getting a raise. the more degrees you have, that is an incentive to do that. that is why i did it, really.

ed, i find this fascinating. they were an absolute winner monster of the cable era can it transition now into -- into streaming >> so, i think discovery's long-term genius during this whole cable period was that it was effectively background tv, right? it was sort of always on, you know you walk into any household, like someone was watching one of the discovery networks it's easy to watch the content itself is relatively cheap to produce and they made a lot of money on advertising. the problem when you go streaming, when you go treasury secretary to consumer that's a lean forward activity, right, to use sort of these early internet terms. it doesn't have the same dynamic so i think that's going to be a huge, huge challenge the estimates are they are doing $7 on the linear net, would. 80 million households doing it trying to convert that to stream is going to be really, really hard also, they are not taking their current linear stuff on to street they have to produce all new stuff for stream, right, and they have

lifelong georgia state democrat vernon jones wrote a new op-ed pleading with voters in georgia to vote for the republican senators, kelly lefer and david perdue -- kelly loeffler. he said i cannot stand by a democrat party that is increasingly radicalized by the far left and supports policies like defunding the police when those policies slam minority and immigrant communities, and they support tax hikes on working families. that's vernon jones. >> i tip my hat, he is absolutely making a point as a democrat. this is basically saying this is not the democratic party of just a few years ago. this is a party that is openly preaching marxism, more redistribution, more government control, unlimited censorship. it is not the party of the working class, and it's going to help the working class voters and the folks regardless of earth us inty in georgia. he's -- ethnicity in georgia. he's absolutely right about that. elizabeth: yeah, it's an important point because the democrat platform going back to the kennedy election in the early '60s was about small businesses, entrepreneurialism,
