attention, they claim they're doing it for isis. host: did the recent attacks in places like nice, france, or even here in the united states, places attacks in orlando and san bernardino, do they make you nervous? are you more concerned about terrorism? caller: i am not nervous. i was born during world war ii. i grew up in the middle of threats of bombs, cold war, everything, and i have lived 99% of my life right here in our most vulnerable state, a finger that sticks out in the middle of the ocean. no, i'm not worried. everybody needs to be alert and pay attention and do it with calm -- calmness. ost: up next, bob on our republican line from wisconsin. caller: good morning to you. i disagree with obama 100%. i'm a veteran. why we went there americans are forgetting. those people were being butchrd left and right. just like hitler, just like the japanese. host: what would you like to see the president do? caller: i am him to bomb the hell out of them. i want him to attack just like we did hitler. we need to go in there with our boots on the ground and do the job. this pussy footing around

-- that will do damage, folks. you look at what's going on in the world. look at france. take a good look at france. i have pretends that go to france. they used to love france. they say no, thank you. they don't expect to be going back for a long time. i have one trip, i said how was your trim to france? he said france isn't france anymore, we're knot going anymore. so many people are saying that. look at germany. what's going on with the -- germany. look at the problems. we have enough problems that are going on in our country right now, we don't need additional problems, folks. we don't need additional problems. and for all we know, this could be the great trojan horse, this could be. we don't know who these people are. now, they're coming in through obama and i looked at a chart yesterday and for years it's sort of like this, a little uptick and the last number or period of time it's like wa, wa, they've never seen anything like it. they're letting them in and again, you can't vet them. you don't know where they come from. look at the damage that two people in san bernardino, pro

france, a catholic priest just days ago, lay to rest after being murdered in the very few of his own church. history teaches us that weakness arouses evil and the weak obama and of barack hillary clinton has aroused the enemies of freedom around the world. ,hether it is moving redlines feigning resets with russia or paying ransom to terrorist , we cannotstates have four more years of apologizing to her enemies and abandoning our friends. america needs to be strong for the world, to be safe and on the world stage, a president donald trump will lead with american strength. [cheers] donald trump will rebuild our military comics and -- stand by our troops, confront radical islamic terrorism and donald trump will destroy isis at its source. [cheers] >> usa! usa! gov. pence: the choice could not be more clear. if you later tonight, go find your neighbors and friends and say it all comes down to this. change first of the status quo. it really is. the american people can elect someone who literally personifies the film establishment in washington dc. an establishment that for far troubled by

? in cash and i want it in euros i want it in swiss francs. wrap it up, we will come back in 10 minutes. ok. [laughter] just inconceivable. we are witnessing a horror show in this country and throughout the world. you look at what is going on throughout the world. these people funding terrorists. these people are funding terrorism. for us to have given $400 million to basically free our hostages. obama, just like he lied about obamacare which was a tremendous lie, that was a tremendous lie, remember? you can keep your plan, he can -- you can keep your doctor? really? how many people have been able to keep the doctor or their plan? [boos] keep your plan, keep your doctor, it's not working that way. it is going to be repealed and replaced 100%. [cheers] and honestly, i hope i win because we will do a great job. we will make america great again. [cheers] we are going to make america great again. [applause] i actually think that regardless of who wins, obamacare is going to fold. it is so expensive. people can't afford it and the country can't afford it. other than that it is just w

the world, paris, france. they walk in. they kill. 130 people. they wound so gravely hundreds of people. let me tell you because we are in second amendment, right, second amendment. if we had in san bernardino or in orlando or someplace, somebody in that room like this guy right here, right? or that guy with the blue make america great had on? or the guy with the red make america -- or that woman with the beautiful blonde hair -- i wish i had hair that looked like that. but if we had somebody and they happened to have a gun, san bernardino, they see him come in -- first of all, if they knew there was a gun where the bullets be flying in the other direction, they probably would not come in, ok? but let's assume they did. the carnage would not have been with the carnage was. we have to protect the second amendment. hillary clinton wants to kill the second amendment. [cheering] wants to kill. so here's our charge. i do a lot of these. i love the people. we have such a movement going on. who likes the snake? who likes the snake? do you like him? here we are with this. we know bad thi

and we went in and looked for oil. italy and france could get their oil from libya and that is why we went in, abusing it. guest: you are talking about 2011 intervention or another intervention? caller: talk about the intervention. it is the same deal, just like iraq. guest: in 2011, oil had nothing to do with it. it was to protect the city of benghazi and the population from the attack of the groups. whether it was [indiscernible] the way i remember was to into their attempt to throw division. it is the speculation that remains to be seen, but on a deeper level, i have my conditions about the intervention. it should not have been -- they should have forced them to negotiate a proposition, but this is a long, long story, and people wrote about it and it is a complex issue. just to save for oil, it is not correct. also, one thing, it was not a democracy. the democracy is really far-fetched. many positive things were meant for it, but [indiscernible] let's not think about it. host: nicholas, glasgow, scotland. good morning. caller: good afternoon. good morning. ist i wanted to ask you w

what's going on in the world. look at france. take a good look at france. i have pretends that go to france. they used to love france. they say no, thank you. they don't expect to be going back for a long time. i have one trip, i said how was your trim to france? he said france isn't france anymore, we're knot going anymore. so many people are saying that. look at germany. what's going on with the -- germany. look at the problems. we have enough problems that are going on in our country right now, we don't need additional problems, folks. we don't need additional problems. and for all we know, this could be the great trojan horse, this could be. we don't know who these people are. now, they're coming in through obama and i looked at a chart yesterday and for years it's sort of like this, a little uptick and the last number or period of time it's like wa, wa, they've never seen anything like it. they're letting them in and again, you can't vet them. you don't know where they come from. look at the damage that two people in san bernardino, probably radicalized the guy, the woman com

am here. america for me and my children. we have to change a little bit because in france, you see something, these people don't change. good,nd out if it is no we think. so the message, kenya, they vote for him -- if it doesn't work, you come back to democrat people. you can't do the same thing the second time. that is my point. host: you mentioned africa give , me an opportunity to speak about the continent. mr. trump has very much regard for africa because many of these countries that we see the worst are going to be in africa for example, the forgotten darfur. we did not see much from the obama-clinton administration work on darfur. there are other areas in sudan, in south the civil war sudan. somalia is still a problem even after eight years. not just obama, but the bush administration. nigeria, if the boko haram problem is not addressed, you are going to have one third of the country going the way of syria. and then of course the countries , of the south and somalia, africa needs to be on the foreign policy of the next administration, whomever is in the white house. host: we

afghanistan, attacks on an istanbul airport, a restaurant in bangladesh, celebrations at a church in france, and the musical festival in germany. losses in iraq is causing it to shift to tactics we have seen before, an even greater emphasis on encouraging high-profile terrorist attacks, including in the united states. as always, our military, diplomatic, intelligence, homeland security, law enforcement professionals are working around the clock. with other countries and with communities here at home to share information and to prevent such attacks. and over the years, they have prevented many. but as we have seen, it is still very difficult to detect and prevent lone actors or small cells who are determined to kill the innocent and willing to die. that is why we will keep going after isil aggressively over every front of this campaign. our air campaign continues to hammer isil targets, 14,000 strikes so far. 100,000 sorties, including isil those hitting core. stark contrast to isil, america's armed forces would do everything in our power to avoid civilian casualties. with our extraordinary

with the somali refugee population in minnesota. beyond terrorist as we've also seen in france, foreign populations have brought their anti-semitic attitudes with them. in cologne germany on new year's eve, we have seen the reports of sexual violence and assault far greater than anybody knows. pew polling shows that in many other countries from which we grow large number of immigrants, extreme views about religion such as the death penalty and for those who are involved, the death penalty is very, very common. if you don't have the faith that they demand you have it a top administration will establish a clear principle that will govern all decisions pertaining to immigration. and we will be tough. we will be even extreme. [applause] we should only admit into this country those who share our values and respect our people. in the cold war, we had an ideological screening test. that time is overdue to develop a new screening test for the threats we face today. i call it extreme vetting. i call it extreme, extreme vetting. our country has enough problems. we don't need more. these

states. as we have seen beyond terrorism and in france, foreign populations have brought their anti-smetic attitudes with them. in colon germany on new year's eve, we have seen the reports of sexual violence and assault far greater than anybody knows. polling shows in many of the countries from which we draw large numbers of immigrants, the e views of those death penalty is very, very common. if you don't have the faith that they demand you have. a trump administration will establish a clear principle that will govern all decisions pertaining to immigration. and we will be tough. and we will be even extreme. [applause] we should only admit into this country those who share our values and respect our people. in the cold war we had an ideological screening test. the time is overdue to develop a new screening test for the threats we face today. i call it extreme vetting. i call it extreme, extreme vetting. our country has enough problems. we don't need more. and these are problems like we've never had before. [applause] in addition to screening out all members of the sympathizers of te

law, thefor sharia desperate struggles to wear hij ab in france, it is all about internal piety. in many ways, he reminded me of episcopalians. it as aways, he viewed very personal thing between you and god. and politics are besides the point. i think a lot of his students get very frustrated with this. they are like, look at what is going on all over the muslim world. one of the most moving moments -- they get really frustrated when, you know, he will sit there in front of an auditorium full of, like, angry young men, and they will say, it is terrible, what is going on in iraq. it is terrible, what is going on on the west bank. child whose parents are old enough to remember partitions and how bloody it was getting an islamic state in pakistan, he says, we have our islamic state. is pakistan. how is that working out? not so well. he is skeptical of outward ornaments, as you say. one of the only things he said that made me think we should print up bumper stickers is, if you have god consciousness, you don't need fatwas. it is usually not that pithy. into --: i want to get on a slight

focused on this because of the talk and by own interest, is that in france, another town has banned the burkini, and it has caused quite a controversy there. and in your book, the sheikh talks about, well, whether you wear a burka, burkini -- he doesn't mention the burkini, but he might as well as have, whatever, these are just outward manifestations, and within your own homes, you can be as private as you want to be, and the reality of that, people said, this is unfair. they are specifically criticizing and punishing muslims. how do you as an observer who has written this book, who has lived and traveled, how do you respond or analyze the commotion carla: i think it is interesting you picked up on the veil. it has got to be the most written about, must contested flap of fabric in the history of humankind. that, or thelike inght of your minaret switzerland, it is these very superficial things that become lightning rods for everything else. superficiality is sad. when, 63% ofme americans say they don't know a muslim. often, the places where there is greatest fear that sharia law is going

-- there was a young man from france, i talk to him later, and he was there with his girlfriend. he grabbed a chair and banged it against the glass windows trying to get out because we were kind of trapped in that corner of the airport. everybody trying to hide. everybody trying to find a place to live and to survive. i posted from there shortly after and that really started , this whole media interest and the conversations and the many opportunities to speak. and what i said here was, "very scary, i am safe now, but terror coming so close. let me give thanks for my life, my family, and call us to fight hate and terror everywhere." and it leads us into deeper solidarity with all who experience terror and violence not just once but every day and , every night. that was really very deep inside me that i felt, for me, at this this moment, i was terribly scared, i panicked, i was doing things just out of instinct. i was terrified. but i thought, there are people who experience this every day and every night. i don't know whether you have had a chance to listen to the audio on the "new y

the current system, which needs changing across the board. your comments about france rings up the current isis, they were for attacks, it recently, the biggest in san bernardino and all landed when i own country by radical islamic terrorists, is something that we need to drastically change and need to take on and he will take isis on directly. host: if asked, would you serve in the trump administration? guest: yes, i would. host: last call from north carolina. the morning. caller: steve, i am really disturbed. by the vietnam veteran and i am african-american veteran. i have been to the wall one time, i know people on that wall. some of the mexicans, locks, -- blacks, one was native american, puerto rican, and there is no way that if trump gets elected, he will destroy the services, the morale of the services. nobody in their right mind will serve under the command of donald trump. two of the flag officers in the united states are having some real problems with a guy like trump, with his temperament, leading theotry military in this country. i would not serve under his command. i w

two weeks here in our france,and yesterday in it is really good to be among friends today. thank you all for being here. we have an amazing group of speakers so i will get right to it. thank adam.d to adam, where are you? netroots the board of and used to be the chair. he's a big booster of this panel so i am very grateful to you. bys panel is organized alliance for justice as well as the center for american progress. and again, we are just privileged to be here with such an amazing group of panelists. with a vacancy on the supreme court and we all know there is a vacancy on the supreme court, we are really at a tipping point in our history and the coming years will swing the court dramatically in one direction or another. nextct, during the resident term, three justices will be in their 80's, ginsburg, breyer, kennedy. so that no matter who wins this bection, we will not only going to vote for a president, we will also be going to vote for a supreme court. given the number of vacancies that we expect to see. nixon's firstard term after the 1990 -- -- 1968 election has the president

if i think the message is at the same levelf risk. we not france or germany or england. one of the reaso we are not in e tuation they are in is because precisely what we were talking about, the fact that of the 27 years i spent doing this, mo muslim amics icans. they left those countries for a reason and it was noort terrorism. i have been especially disconcerted for the last 12 months with the campaign because having spent time with muslim americans, having spent time with the security apparatus, with the policani and my teacher from the office of hola security that i joined on the 12th of september of 2001. i can tell you the days after 9/11 they we maybe 15 of us studng terrism two days ler, it was hundreds. i went directly to work with the u.s. govnment to say, this is what terrorism looks like in other parts of the world. the main thing that we found was that it was t necessarily religion. we had lots of nonreligious terrorism. in fact co i had done -- in fact, i had done fieldwork in sri lanka with the tigers and certainlyslim not religious. we were doing a great job in the a

shape today. france is suffering greatly, and the tourism industry is being massively affected in the most negative way. in march of this year, terrorists detonated a bomb in brussels airport, killing 32 and injuring 340 people. this july in the south of france, an islamic terrorist turned his truck into an instrument of mass murder, falling down and killing 85 men, women and children, and wounding 308 people. terrible. among the dead were two americans, a texas father and his 11 year old son. a few weeks ago in germany, a refugee armed with an ax wounded five people in a gruesome trained attack. only days ago an isis kill innovative a christian church in normandy, france, forced an 85 year old priest to his knees, a priest who was beloved, who was beloved, before cutting his throat and just unthinkable other things. overseas, isis has carried out an absolute atrocity, one after another. children slaughtered, girls sold into slavery, men and women burned alive. crucifixions, beheadings and drownings, ethnic minorities targeted for mass execution, holy sites desecrated. christians driv

threat. the recent attacks in france, belgium, and germany. the current efforts by the anti-isis coalition have seen an increase in people traveling to syria. increase in people traveling to syria. we have increased attention for people returning from syria back to the netherlands and also back to europe. they are questioned upon returning to the netherlands, and if there's a suspicion of terrorist activities, he or she will be put into custody. we monitor every returnee closely. there is an influx of so-called -- they are using refugee roots to get into europe. we know their isis operatives active in europe. they took advantage of this refugee crisis to travel from syria to europe and back. sometimes for a short while. at the eu borders are monitored more closely, entrance into the netherlands has somewhat diminished. it still requires our full attention and monitoring capacities. the nature of the threat is crucial to improve international information. recent terrorist attacks underlying that terrorists do not respect international borders. the and attack may be preceded by pre

has been a bipartisan policy move. i think we can learn things, germany, france. there are 28 million jobs in the united states, whicheq

paris, france. [laughter] no, not really. comesthat's all right, it like mom has a few ideas in mind. back to you. wholethat would be a different question if paris became part of the national park system across the country. we have 10 more minutes in our focus on the national park service and we would love to have you join in on the conversation. we are live tonight, 7:00 eastern time on c-span3's american history tv. we are at arlington house, commemorating the centennial of the national park service. jonathan jarvis, i want to share you more of what he wrote -- we must recommit to national parks, america's cathedrals. he writes the following -- in 1956 when planning for our 50th anniversary, the park service invite it veterans to come and see what they fought for. the service invited them to see the usa in your chevrolet. veterans came out with their children in the back seats of their station wagons and from those experiences group a groundswell of some word for historicion and preservation. those children today are the baby boomers. , weour 100th anniversary invited everyone to f

another 368 people, some in very, very, very bad shape today. france is suffering greatly, and the tourism industry is being massively affected in the most negative way. in march of this year, terrorists detonated a bomb in brussels airport, killing 32 and injuring 340 people. this july in the south of france, an islamic terrorist turned his truck into an instrument of mass murder, falling down and killing 85 men, women and children, and wounding 308 people. terrible. among the dead were two americans, a texas father and his 11 year old son. a few weeks ago in germany, a refugee armed with an ax wounded five people in a gruesome trained attack. only days ago and isis kill innovative a christian church in normandy, france, forced an 85 year old priest to his knees, a priest who was beloved, who was beloved, before cutting his throat and just unthinkable other things. overseas, isis has carried out an absolute atrocity, one after another. children slaughtered, girls sold into slavery, men and women burned alive. crucifixions, beheadings and drownings, ethnic minorities targeted for m

feel, or france, or japan, in a time when wealthy countries are not generating new jobs and people are working harder for stagnant wages, those pressures make us do what is easy and perhaps popular in the moment. orwell we do what we -- or will we do what we should really do take an action that may not be popular in the moment that holds the problems -- promise of alleviating the pressures? if we believe the anxieties are legitimate, don't we have the obligation to do what will alleviate anxieties? over the long haul, instead of play to them in the moment? that is what this decision is about. that is what we mean when we say the secret ballot has been won. these students to my left are from my alma matar. we came out thinking not about the cold war and trying to debate how much the pattern of the bipolar world could be manifest in every development in every country in the world. sometimes we were wrong, sometimes we were right. at least we had a framework in which to from the world. we are in the process of creating a new framework. a lot of people are complaining about how we don'

. terrorist attacks at home and abroad, heartbreaking scenes. our ally in france a catholic , priest just days ago. laid to rest after he murdered in the very pew of his own church in france. history teaches us that weakness arouses evil and weak leadership of barack obama and hillary clinton on the world stage has aroused the enemies of freedom around the world. whether it is moving red lines, eining resets with russia, or paying ransom to terrorist sponsoring states. we cannot have four more years of apologizing and abandoning our friends. america needs to be strong for the world to be safe and on the world stage, a president donald trump will leave with american strength. [cheers] donald trump will rebuild our military, stand by our troops, defend our allies, confront radical islamic terrorism and donald trump will destroy isis at its source. >> [chanting] usa! usa! governor pence: the choice could not be more clear. if you weaker tonight, find your neighbors and friends who do come study this is. it is change versus the status quo. it really is. the american people can elect some

element of race in that conversation, it changes the dynamic. for example, in france, for example, there are a lot of black people who are immigrants there who talk about racial issues all the time. there are black people or people from north africa who travel to nordic countries that have excellent health care, excellent schooling systems, but discussion of issues -- but discuss issues of racism. always playsf race a factor into that because you a lot ofnger in -- european countries are no longer homogenized societies. any time you introduced new people into that society, it causes a conflict. there is going to be a question of, are these people taking our jobs, trying to reinvent our culture? when i hear your question, it reminds me of, hey, you are right. there are areas in the country, in the world, where we can learn from, where we can benefit from. i think in america, a country that is so ethnically diverse, a country that does have a history people,m and oppressing that is always going to be the element of conversation that we have to unpack because a lot of these services and a l

? to paris,to go france. not really a place in the united states. john: it sounds like mom has a few ideas in mind. back to you. that would be a whole different question is paris, france became part of the national park system. we have about 10 more minutes in our focus is morning on the centennial of the national park service. we would love to have you join in on the conversation. we are live tonight, 7:00 eastern time on c-span3 american history tv. we are at arlington house commemorating the centennial of the national park service. i want to share with you more of what was written in "the washington post" this morning. "in 1956 when planning for a 50th anniversary, the national park service invited world war ii veterans to see what they fought for. in partnership with the automobile industry, the service invited them to see the usa in your chevrolet. veterans came out in droves with their children in the back seats of their station wagons, and from those experiences grew a groundswell of support for conservation and is stored preservation. those children today are the baby boomers

uncle used to put bombs in the planes in northern france and the other one was there when he opened up italy and they went in with the concentration camps in towns bombed out. why are we fighting a war on television with these young children? people died. all types died and disappeared. this is war. >> let's get a democratic viewpoint now from neil in tennessee will stop -- tennessee. >> i've only got one comment. childrenied about my and my grandchildren. trump, isten to donald hear armageddon, i hear the end. he scares me. people.s a lot of >> anything in particular he has said that frightens you? >> just about everything he says about the nuclear weapons and all of it. and with russia. it scares me. glenn in michigan on the ts line.en >> i just want to say, anyone who is scared by donald trump is either a total coward or just plain foolish. that is nonsense. all this fear mongering against trump. it is recycled garbage, the same kind of stuff in 64. it really is despicable. hack,y clinton is a total a bought and paid for wall street establishment hack. republicans -- establishmen

on france. it happened the same week as the charlie hebdo attacks. how thingsmple of tend to proliferate in nigeria while american interest is focused elsewhere. what we learned in our investigation is that there were theriety of ways in which clinton state department and even after that with the u.s. government has not taken much of a proactive approach against boko haram and stopping terrorism in nigeria, but a hands-off approach that has allowed it to metastasize into rakes asal terrorism the most deadly terrorist. group.oisrist our investigation was focused on the policy. my colleague wins and traveled to find other states to take a look at what was going on with terrorism. wasfound that boko haram operating at unfettered growth in nigeria so we started trying to make sense of the policy. we were already called at that point to designate boko haram a foreign terrorist organization. we can talk about the details of that if you like about whatever reason, there was some pushback within the state department. there was a hands-off approach. we set out to find out why, and wha

overseas in countries like france, terrorism hurting the economy. there is an economic impact. host: a question on twitter, who enforces the rules in tpp? how easy would it be for, -- a country to cheat? you have these international tribunals and it is up to the individual countries, if we are talking about environmental and labor standards, they would have to pass laws in their own countries to enforce the standards and it is up to their governments to support it. there are mechanisms other countries could use to say indonesia is not part of the deal, you are not abiding by the rules, we will punish you. there is that mechanism, but it is not clear if the u.s. or canada or mexico or another country would actually use it. host: rob in texas opposes the tpp. because iam opposing it,t know a whole lot about but it sounds like it might be a good thing or might not. there was another thing about the deal. suggests that he would put a 35% terror attacks on products coming in. what does that do, really? is the consumer will end up paying that 35%. i think america has gotten .poiled on buying

france, which resulted in the loss of the normandy area and possessions of the normans themselves. and the magna carta was the result. you need not worry here about the feudalism that most of the details of the magna carta have to do with, important issues, but among the most important provisions and one that above all survive was the so-called chapter 39 of the magna carta, the one that guarantees proceedings according to the law of the land. what we now call the due process of law. there was another companion provision, chapter 40, which said that justice should not be delayed, denied, or sold. king is no doubt that bargainer,uctant to keep hisnd promise. he was going to turn his back on magna carta. as it happened, he died the next year, 1216, and his successor was nine years old. now, how is a nine-year-old king going to live in the middle ages we have all seen "game of thrones" and the like, so william marshall hit upon what we would call a public relations device, and that was that he had henry iii reissue the magna carta as a pledge of good faith to the english people and then s

assault rifles or in the case of nice, france, a truck. the possibility of either a lone actor or a small cell carrying out an attack that kills people is real. that is why our intelligence and law enforcement and military officials are working around the clock to try to anticipate potential attacks, to obtain the game plan threads of people who might be vulnerable to brainwashing by isil. brainwashing my we are going to constrained here in the sharia with a united states to carry out this work in a way that is consistent with our laws, presumptions of innocence, the fact that we prevent a lot and of these attacks as the one in effectively as we do myanmar along will without a lot of fanfare and abiding by our laws is a testament to the incredible work that these folks are doing. they work really hard at it, but you it is always a risk. some of you may have read the article in the new york times and today, i guess it came out you last night online, about this individual in germany who germany will confessed and had given himself up and explain his knowledge of how isil's networks kn

toughest gun laws in the world, paris, france. they walk in. they kill 130 people. they wound so gravely hundreds of people. now, let me just tell you because while we're in the second amendment -- if we had in san bernardino or in orlando or some place, somebody in that room like this guy right here, right? that guy with the blue make america great again hat on. or that woman with the beautiful blonde hair. wish i had hair that looked like that. [laughter] but if we have somebody and they happen to have a gun, san bernardino, they see them coming. first of all, if they knew there was a gun where the bullets would be flying in the other direction, they probably wouldn't have gone in. but let's assume they did, the carnage would not be what the carnage was. we have to protect our second amendment. hillary clinton wants to kill our second amendment. wants to kill it. [cheers and applause] so here's our start. and i was thinking about doing -- like one in 10. i do a lot of these. i love the people. we have such a movement going on. who likes the snake? do you know the snake? do you like him

our eyes. we were hiding in this room here and others -- there was a young man from france and he was there with his girlfriend. he grabbed a chair and banged it against the glass windows trying to get out because we were kind of trapped in that corner of the airport. everybody trying to hide. everybody trying to find a place to survive. i posted from there shortly after and that really started this whole media interest and conversations and the many opportunities to speak. what i said here was, "very scary, i am safe now, but terror coming so close. let me give thanks for my life, -- to fight hate and terror everywhere." and it leads us into deeper solidarity with all who experience terror and violence . not just once but every day and every night. that was really very deep inside me that i felt, for me, at this moment, i was terribly scared, i panicked, i was doing things just out of instinct. i was terrified. but i thought, there are people who experience this every day and every night. i don't know if you had a chance to listen to the audio on the "new york times," if you days ago

, not in france or asia, you are eva elitist.-- you are made fun of for mentioning the word arugula. livelinessk to the that goes hand-in-hand with livelihood. liveliness, joy. how do we get the public to buy-in to everything the panel has been talking about? we start with joy, the taste of good food. if they are cultivated right, it is part of what food does so well. protect people in urban settings. you slice the beat and you drizzle the olive oil. you are buying in, you are getting it. that.d more of i want a t-shirt. aid,brought as a visual look at the tubers. foodis about the wasted initiative. look how beautiful they are. this was once considered unsellable food. happen and what can one person do? >> the thing that we are not doing is trying to figure how we move this incredible food movement into a political movement. how did we elect people who understand food issues are important so access to affordable health care, healthy value? a universal how do we change that in a significant way over the next 20 years. knowledgeable, vote this way. vote your values. find out how your

happened in nice, france a few weeks ago. something is going on and it is not good. host: we are getting your thoughts on what you of heard going back and forth between donald trump and mr. khan, starting from statements at the dnc in philadelphia and responses for mr. trump. republicans,1, (202) 748-8000, democrats and (202) 748-8002, independents. the specificsbout or the larger issues at play. , on theapolis, maryland independent line, joe. veteran, am a retired graduate of the naval academy in 1973. i was in the navy until 2002. i was there for the wrapup of vietnam in 1975 and in the pentagon. at thespent five years national counterterrorism as chief of staff. i was a commanding officer and before i would reenlist my sailors i would ask them if they had read the constitution, because all of us are asked to support the constitution. god bless a man who raises awareness of the u.s. constitution. i'm glad you guys exist. host: do you have a pocket constitution? caller: i gave it to my niece who went to law school, and the one i have i took off of the national archive site and e
