american dream, how the real mad men changed the world. [applause] aton: we are going to take a little journey. i hope everyone catches the meaning of when i say the real mad and. that's a play on the television series. it was about the advertising world in the 1960's. we will talk about it. a scenario. a family wakes up in a home that it owns. kids go off to school. there are probably two cars in the garage in the house is full of appliances, every conceivable electronic gadget. multiple smartphones, video games, central heating and air. mostly bought on one kind of credit. the kids will be wearing national named brand clothes and shoes. music squarelyto aimed at their demographic. they will be expected to attend college. the commute will take mom and dad to work. they might stop by a supermarket or fast food chain on the way home they might not know their neighbors. they will have hundreds of friends on social media. it's unlikely they live where they were born. miles iffamily will be not states away. along the way, they will eat at mcdonald's, drink coca-cola, stay in it chain motel

hot bed o the activity is going on. that makes all americans safer. this is not the same thing as what obama is trying to compare it to, as, for example, in cuba, where they arrest people for free speech. totally different thing. >> john, are we violating anyone's personal liberties by having extra scrutnies on areas we think there are hot beds of terror? >> muslim americans rights are upheld more in america here than they are anywhere else in the world. i think to gina's point.h jihadism is at war with the west and it needs to be destroyed as obama talks about when he's doing the tango or whatever it is. i think it's going to necessitate a total war in the middle east and in saudi arabia. but in the interim, at least working with these muslim communities just as we work with gang communities where there's gang violence being festered and work with these communities where there's possible hot beds of local home-grown terrorism because, you know what, obama's job to protect those communities, as well. >> now, some people on the left are saying if you target these muslim communities

an american president hasn't done since calvin coolidge. obama sees havana, it's the "inside story." welcome to "inside story." i'm ray suarez. for people who have been waiting to see this trip for decades, it's the culmination of a strong desire to get on with writing the final chapters of the cold war story. for people who have noted how little the castro regimes have done to meet the u.s. halfway in return for reopening relations, this is another step down the path of 9 naive you tai. naivete. the administration says it has insisted on meeting with cuban dissidents when the president is in cuba. and wreath laying at a monument, obama on havana. lucia newman has a preview of the president's visit. >> reporter: it stills looks like the havana of the pre-cold war era. like most visitors president barack obama will likely be thrust back into the 1950s when he sees havana's art deco architecture and cars, before the 1559 revolution still working against all odds. he will tour old havana and perhaps eat one of the scores of privately new restaurants. nonstate sector in havana. >> part

, given what a great speech it must have been, let's release that speech to the american people. [cheers and applause] bernie sanders: this campaign is listening to working people throughout this country. what they are telling me is they cannot make it on eight dollars or nine dollars an hour. raiseat we have got to this countryage in to $15 an hour. [cheers and applause] bernie sanders: this campaign is listening to disabled veterans, and two senior citizens. [cheers and applause] -- to senior citizens. [cheers and applause] victim of they cannot make it on $11,000 or $12,000 a year. nobody can make it on that much a year. despite that, we have republicans in congress wantign to cu -- wanting to cut social security benefits. [booing] bernie sanders: i've got bad news for them. we're going to increase social security benefits. [cheers and applause] bernie sanders: this campaign is listening to women. [cheers and applause] bernie sanders: what women all over this country are saying is, tired ofsick and working for $.79 on the dollar. [cheers and applause] bernie sanders: i know e

that believe the opposite is true, with the majority of us, americans, 49% believing that, in fact, palestinians are the ones doing the occupying. now, why is it we are so out of sync with these other countries? what is it that we know or are told that they are not? i'd like to remind everybody of the statement that prime minister benjamin netanyahu made back in 2001 that was only circulated in 2011, and that was that his perception was asked told the west bank settlers, america is something you can move very easily. move in the right direction. they will not get in our way. what was he talking about? what moves america? why is it, as uncovered by edward snowden, that across federal agencies perhaps unbeknownst to many americans, that the policy doctrine that the survival of the state of israel is a paramount goal of middle east policy? well, i would say, many would say, moore is saying it's because of the israel lobby and. note i'm not saying what was said in the jewish lobby because that's not what i'm talking about. i'm talking about israel affinity organizations that are tax-ex

by all of the american people, to continue to make efforts to bridge divides and help us find common ground. as i have said before, i think that common ground exists all across the country and you see it every day in the way people live together, work together, play together, and raise their kids together. but what i am not going to do is to validate some notion that the republican crackup that has been taking place is a consequence of actions that i have taken. and what is interesting -- i will just say one last thing about this -- there are thoughtful conservatives who are troubled by this, who are troubled by the direction of their party. i think it is very important for them to reflect on what it is about the politics they have engaged in that allows the circus we have been seeing to transpire and to do some introspection, because ultimately, i want an effective republican party. i think this country has to have responsible parties that can govern and that are prepared to lead and govern whether they are in the minority or the majority, whether they occupy the white house

announced? are americans making up some of those dead? >> we have no information about any americans killed. we know the number of americans who were involved in one way or anotherjn has gone up. there were three mormon missionaries about whom we spoke. a member of the military and four of his family members, two other people from new york city who were here on vacation. two other bankers from the united states who were working here but are united states citizens and now today from the state department we learned that there are others who are involved in one way or another but because of privacy issues, the state department couldn't give us details. somewhere around a dozen americans, whether any of them are dead we don't know. four at least are unaccounted for at best, greta. >> shep, thank you. i know you are exhausted. you haven't had much sleep there is a lot going on. if something does happen of course we will go back to you. @3gtiu)u now, there is breaking news out of france. their interior minister says a frenchman in the advanced stages of a terror plot has been stopped. is h

point that we are now making very shallow arguments that appeal to bring much what all americans love and respect, and i make reference to money. i will start by talking about human rights discourse and due process and determines and it is since and all kinds of other things -- and innocence and the second half of my talk on the financial efforts to attack the death penalty in recent years, especially since the great recession of 2008 and some recent developments that might signal the end of the death penalty in the foreseeable future. recently, retired justice stevens was talking about the death penalty when writing a book review and he is quoting from decision he authored in gardner versus florida in 1977, just a year after greg for he said that this penalty differs from other punishments in both its severity and finality. from the point of view of society, the action is taking the life of one of its citizens, differing from any other legitimate state action. it is of vital importance that the defendant -- that any decision to impose the death penalty be and appear to be based on re

american people elected barack obama, republican leaders made it their mission to block everything, literally offering the president propose it. they misled the american people about his policies and over the last year we have seen incredibly heated rhetoric around the president and the country's future. today, donald trump is the republican party's front-runner, and people are surprised that hateful and divisive rhetoric has contributed to a candidacy that mirrors all of those themes. we are particularly honored to have senator reid here to discuss this topic and many more. senator reid has been fighting for the middle class, working to help all americans on almost every issue i have worked on. he works on policies help hard-working families achieve the american dream, working to keep immigrant families together, protect can our environment for future generations. he has been an incredible voice for all of us, into i'm honored to have him here to talk about what is happening to the mesh electorate. what is happening to our politics and where the run party is going and what democra

senator joe biden saying that the american people speak during an election. who is right on history know? this is unprecedented. >> history is written by the victors. we will find out after this plays out. we can say this about joe biden, he was speaking hypothetically. let's member where joe biden was in 1992. he had just presided over the confirmation of clarence thomas, which was not a very great moment in his own record as a senator. he managed to disappoint both sides. felt as thomas was -- republicans vote counts thomas wasn't treated fairly -- clarence thomas was not treated fairly. confirmation of an extreme it conservative justice to succeed one of the most liberal justices in history, thurgood marshall. joe biden may have been under special pressure 1992 to say that he was not going to let that kind of debacle occur again on his watch. i don't know if he was speaking more broadly for the democratic caucus. let's remember where he specifically was at that point. we can see there is a movie that much on hbo. we will see how great can near put trays -- people see how ear joe

may be agitated about the fact that even though american goods re able to come here, they may not be able to see some of the benefits of that. if you think for the last several decades here, you know, the socialism and communism is much more than the politics of economy. it's a psyche. it's a belief t`ey are being controlled by the government, so for the last several decades and now for the first time an american presidede will be able to come and give its side of the story. >> calvin -- are you -- if you think back to the 1 1960 -- >> let's share that with you right now. we see both deligations there. they appear to be walking into the national theater. the president just stopped to shake hands with a v vy elderly woman and they paused and had quite a conversation with her and now we're looking at the american and cuban flags together set up at the podium right there inside the national theater.& calvin, this is actually -- the correct name is the. and it is -- it's right next to the saratoga hotel for those who they know that it's in a place where -- it is accessible to so many peo

-employed isn't about becoming more american, it's about becoming more of yourself. look at [ inaudible ] who chose to start a small business. she said our secret is not in comepying or imitating, but simply being ourselves. look at a barber who's success allowed him to improve conditions in his neighborhood. i realize i'm not going to solve all of the world's problems, he said, but if i can solve problems in the little piece of the world where i live, it can ripple across havana. that's where hope begins with the ability to earn your own living, and to build something you can be proud of. that's why our policies focus on supporting cubans instead of hurting them. that's why we got rid of limits on remittances. that's why we are encouraging travel which will build bridges between our people, and bring more revenue to those cuban small businesses. that's why we have opened up space for commerce and exchanges, so that americans and cubans can work together to fine cures for diseases, and create jobs, and open the door to more opportunity for the cuban people. as president of the united st
