america's cup will stay in america. it is the oldest trophy in international sport, and one of the rules is that the winner gets to decide where the next america's cup will be held. oracle chose bermuda. i have come to find out why 65 members of land rover bar would move their lives and families to this tiny set of islands in the atlantic. all of it is to chase their skipper‘s dream. come in. i guess you could say the america's cup becomes a life obsession. it is certainly very complex setting up a new team. you need to raise the funding get the right skill—sets across the board, be it sailing, design, technology, or management, and bring that all together. it does takes time. it takes time to get into a dominant position in the america's cup. is this the bit we aren't allowed to film? actually, we're not allowed to film any of this. no worries. no—one else will see. there is no other sailor in the world with a track record like ben ainslie. ben ainslie is well used to calling the shots, just not as a team princip

. >> this is america. >> this is america. this is the future of america. >> and that's something we should all be happy about because quiet as it's kept, we need immigrants and refugees more than they need us. we need people like leslie, william, ruby and mohammed. people hungry to start businesses, create communities and see our country through fresh eyes to remind us of many things americans take for granted. without them we won't continue to grow and invite but beyond that, letting immigrants and ref fau g f -- refugees into the u.s. is a moral issue. ask yourself, do you want to go to this kind ofarty or this kind? a party built on inclusion, respect, and love. now is the time to choose, america. know where you're find me. >>> when we first pitched this show, you should know the whole idea behind this show is it's a show where a black guy goes places either he shouldn't go or you wouldn't expect him to go. and we're like oh, where should we go? i was like, i don't know, maybe i should go talk to the ku klux klan. that was

i think the council of america's for inviting me to speak. it's actually a great honor to be here and this benjamin franklin room which is a hallowed place. it's named after the father of international diplomacy and a founding father. in particular, i want to thank the chairman of the council of the american society and the president and ceo of the american society and of course erica farnsworth which will be before our committee tomorrow, i hope you get a good night sleep, we will grill you hard. it's an honor to be a part of this conference. it's an exciting time in regards to the united states and the western hemisphere because it gives us an opportunity to rethink policy. in many ways, outside of normal conventions but let me begin by saying i think there's been since the end of the cold war a lack of focus on some of the highest levels of our government in hemisphere. that's something that needs to be reversed quickly. in the end, our future, but economic insecurity, is deeply tied to our region and i say our region because we are a memb

most of us think we have pretty good ideas for making america a better place to live and good ideas for legislation, but luckily we have something called the congressional budget office which sometimes brings us back down to earth and says it might not work exactly as you thought it would work. and so traditionally, bills, significant bills that affect a lot of americans and families and things important like health care are submitted to the congressional budget office so congressional budget office so .he >> and three weeks ago that speaker ryan the republicans in the house says something i have not heard before, we will not wait. we will vote on this bill even before the cbo has a chance to get help -- analyze the impact. remember we're talking about changing the health care system in america to impact every single american. you would think beforeth anyone was cold enough toy suggest to send their proposal to the cbo for analysis by republicans failed to do so so yesterdayow the cbo completed its analysis with that health care approach is clear why they didn't want the cbo to take a l

and that is the spirit of america. mr. speaker, something that americans have always been known for is our eternal optimism. so much so that if you're friends with folks in europe and in other places, they would always gently make fun of americans for being so optimistic. for our undeniable, unending belief in the power of the future. that tomorrow will always be better than today. yet we know, mr. speaker, in recent times too few americans are feeling optimistic about our country's future. all the pollses are showing that -- polls are showing that. a pretty dramatic turn in just the last 20, 30 years in how americans feel their own personal futures and the future f this country. part of it is stagnant economic wages and i have talked about it on the floor as a previous blue caucus hour and part of it is the sense that we aren't building anymore, 100 years ago, we were building and we were launching the first airplane, that 50 years ago, we were going to the moon and the eisenhower era, building the best hey ways, but we d

we often talk when we talk about political america, red america and a blue america, or a purpler america, have you found that? >> yeah. >> what are the differences? >> there's rising contrast between the north and south and a lot of people might say, well, everyone knows that but what's interesting is when we look at comparative angle it's not exactly the same thick in othern nations, if you leave paris for rural regions of france, you might meet people who are more conservative and by the same tone amsterdam but unlikely to meet people who are in favor or universal health care and abortion and some of the greatest evils that human kind has known, by contrast these are common beliefs. we look at the data that's not only huge regional contrast within the united states, it's also a contrast out of partisan level nationwide. even conservatives in blue states tend to take a very hardo line position on broad range of issues and the perfect examples are rudy giuliani and the christies yi blue state republicans who have a supported donald trump even though they took a very hard line stance on m

it's america first and the rest of the world last. i fully recognize that we face serious threats. i spent eight years actually reading the presidential daily briefing. and the last three and a half years personally briefing president obama. but the world i see is also filled with profound opportunities. our relationships are not zero sum. they should be mutually beneficial. through enlightened self interest, we can expand opportunity, not hoard it for the few. i believe the responsible national security strategy must be balanced, confronting threats while seizing opportunities. it's a strategy based on four pillars, a strong defense, skillful diplomacy, smart development, and domestic strength. first, our national security begins with a strong defense. the united states must remain the world's preeminent military power. that requires sustaining a force that's smartly funded, wisely deployed, and ready to deal with a threat, any threat, at a moment's notice. conflict is not inevitable. and bluster is for bullies. but our adversaries, from russia, to north korea, must know that we w

there is not a black america and a white america and latino america and asian america, there is the united states of america. >> jesse jackson, of course, watching. even at first glimpse we all knew we were witnessing something special that night. here was my immediate reaction following that speech. >> i think the immigrant experience combined with the african background combined with the incredible education, combined with his beautiful speech, every politician gets help on the speech, but that speech was a piece of work. >> well, his unlikely run for the presidency four years later captured the imagination of millions but seemed destined to fail in the face of the clinton juggernaut. then came the kennedy cavalry. caroline kennedy authored a new york times opinion article endorsing obama, wrote, i have never had a president who inspired me the way people tell me my father inspired them. but for first time i believe i have found the man who could be that president, not just for me, but for a new generation of americans. then ted kennedy joined her in a big rally at american university on

america was always going for france and spain. america was always going to be part of that equation. they always knew america was going to go up against britain at some point. they certainly were prepared to exploit the american revolution that they knew was going to happen. long before we did as part of that goal. fleet that was a what amounted to a large coalition that would eventually defeat a common enemy. each one for their own reason. that is no bad thing or it you do not go to war because -- bad thing. you do not go to war because you are being altruistic. i sought three nations, each had individual goals, but those goals had a common purpose. that is what we do today, just to be very clear. othere l.a. -- ally with nations, we do so with other interests. that is what got me interested in it. is sohink what interesting about this kind of approach to the late 18th wrenches ushat, it out of our traditional united .tates centered narrative we see how interconnected america was with the rest of the world. i think it is easy for

power to rule america. why? because we didn't know what the great next business would be that we are pretty darn sure you would need electricity, right? and pretty darn sure you would need roads so you can get your goods to market so that your workers could get to you. so we made those investments together so those good businesses could grow here in america and those good jobs could grow here in america. the third thing we did, what made us such a remarkable people, we invested in research. we put money into medical research, scientific research and engineering research and behavioral sciences research, all kinds of research. why? because we believe in the future. we didn't know what that research was going to produce. we didn't know what we believed that if we built this giant pipeline of ideas, ideas, that things would come from that it would permit our children and grandchildren to live lives that we had never even dreamed of. so we made those investments, and here's the deal. it worked. i mean, it worked. it

protecting america from terrorism at all costs. and how does america do that? by gathering and acting on very sensitive and confidential information from friends and allies around the world. what's going to happen now? america's going to get shut out because no one can trust the president not to spill their secrets whenever he has his friends come over for a play date. and here's how you know the story is a big deal -- for the first time, since the election, republican leaders seem to be having buyers' remorse. >> republican senator bob corker, a trump supporter, telling journalists the white house is in a downward spiral. >> senator susan collins quipped to reporters, can we have a crisis free day? that's all i'm asking. >> well, if it's true, it's disturbing, obviously. it's not a good thing.

of america. he said they get together voluntarily to do good things. he couldn't quite understand it. it is a bit of paradox. we are the most individualistic people in the world. you violate my right and we will take you all the way to the supreme court. brown vs education yesterday. we are also the most humanitarian and get together to do good things and know those voluntary associations today as the red cross, boys and girls club or rotary club. that has had an international component, too. my view is that work makes america much stronger abroad than even the things we do with extraordinary economic wealth. there are many ways to be involved internationally. people informed is very important. in the day when social media does matter and congress has always listening to opinions, informed opinions would be nice. we are getting an awful lot of uninformed opinions. >> with that, we would like to turn to you and your audience to ask questions. why don't we ask when you raise your hand if you could

it pays for nearly half of all births in america. it provides coverage for one out of three children -- health care for one out of three children in america. it pays for nursing home care for more than half of the american seniors who need nursing home care. medicaid is the single largest payer for mental health and substance abuse disorders. a lot of folks here have come down to this floor, both parties, to talk about taking on the opioid epidemic, a substance abuse epidemic, a highly addictive drug, doing great damage across america. medicaid is the largest payer for substance abuse disorders in america and trumpcare cuts it by $1.5 trillion. two out of three school districts rely on medicaid funds to provide services to children with disabilities. so there we have it, one broken promise after another. and now we turn to the senate because it's time for this chamber to respond. the only appropriate response is for us all to get together, dig a deep hole here in the floor of the chamber and throw that house bill trumpcare 2.0 into i

this is a budget which says that if you are the richest family in america, the walton family, you can get up to a $53 billion tax break through the repeal of the estate tax. $53 billion tax break. but at the same time, it says that if you are a lower income senior citizen, you will not be able to get the one nutritious meal a day you now receive through the meals on wheels program or the help you desperately need if you are disabled. this is a budget that says that if you are the second wealthiest family in america, the koch brothers family, a family that contributed many hundreds of millions 0 of dollars into the republican party, you may get up to a $34 billion tax break but at the same time if you are a working class student trying to figure out how you could possibly afford college, your dream of a college education will evaporate because of major cuts to student financial assistance programs. this is a budget which says that if you are a member of the trump family you may receive a tax break of up to $4 billion but if you are a child of a working class family, you could well lose

adm also thrives when america's farmers thrive. for us to serve america's farmer while creating jobs and contributing to growth, we must have a globally competitive u.s. tax code. we must encourage the return of capital to the u.s. and enable companies like adm to create and maintain jobs here in the united states. the proposal we're discussing today will help accomplish those goals. first, reducing the corporate rate to 20% will allow companies like adm to operate more competitively. today, many competitors have a substantial tax advantage. our effective tax rate is approximately 30% and we must compete with firms with tax rates at 20% or in the teens. second, the proposal will level the playing field by moving from worldwide taxation to territorial taxation. the territorial tax system would remove the burdens of high-corporate tax rates and address the capital restrictions that hinder u.s. companies, but not bill competitors. this the facilitate our ability to enable american crops to reach the world. third, the destination-based

not if america keeps being america. they beat us into space, too, and look where we are today with our space programs. there is always -- life's always going to have problems. we have a serious challenge today, to create more jobs in places where jobs have been left behind. but if we quit playing politics with it and think of the best way to do it, it would be fairly places where jobs have been left simple and straightforward to do. i'm not worried about that. i'm worried about what's in your mind and what's in your heart. as long as we believe our common humanity is more important, as long as we understand that diverse groups make better decisions than homogenous ones or lone geniuses, as long as we realize the great thing about life is not final victories and the great tragedy is not final defeats -- there aren't any final victories or final defeats. it's the journey, it's the deal. you stand up and do the best you can in the moments you have. and then you go on and live the next moment. it's going to be fine. i'd giv
