both hillary and bill clinton continued to build the political operation while hillary clinton was at the state department we could we basically see this is a seamless continual run for the presidency from two thousand a on certainly that doesn't mean that everything she did was geared toward that it just means that that option was being kept open and that the big the building the political machine continued all along i would be very very surprised if she didn't run. i'll be interested amy as a woman in your reaction to kathleen wiley and to rand paul and all is making an issue of the lewinsky case and kathleen will at wiley in the form of volunteer aide who says she was sexually harassed by the president in the ninety's says there's danger in hillary clinton becoming president that hillary is that's a war on women and that was needs to be exposed to hillary chose to attack all the women who were supposed to be involved with bill rather than say divorcing him or doing something else do you think this will be a key issue well you know i think there's some disagreement in the republican

this is hillary clinton. i want to thank you for speaking about an issue that is critical to our fight to restore the nation's economy, solving our nation's health care crisis. is no prescription or role model or cookbook for being first lady. the future is created every day. the feature is not something out there waiting to happen to us. the future is something that we make. believe thatnd i there is a good possibility that some time in the next 20 years we will have a woman president. >> hillary clinton logged many firsts in her role as first lady. as she considers another bid for the white house herself, hillary clinton's story. tonight you we will to you the story of the spouse of our 42nd president, hillary clinton. here to tell us the story for the next 90 minutes are to journalist who know the clintons well by covering them for many years. a biographer of hillary clinton, her book in 2000 was called "hillary's choice." and david, whose home base is the washington post. he wrote in 1995 biography about

where whereas, the clintons, when they retired, bill clinton was in debt. and within five years they were worth a $100 million dollar. the book and his speeches -- he went and was giving them for $150-$250,000 a pop for a 15-minute speech at financial firms, at jewish community centers -- >> and do you think this hurts her chances? >> i think the fact is it isn't discussed >> all right. >> i think the clinton people would say they have done their share of good. bill clinton has cgi, the clinton global initiative where he travels the world and does good things. so a clinton aid would point that out >> i was hoping the caller wouldn't hold my youth against me. but these are all going to be answered in the presidential campaign or reporters like us will attempt to make them answer this. we have a scene where hilary clinton has to raise fund for a fair in chinese and the united states has to raise money because there was a decision under the bush administration not to save money for this. there was a loophole that let the secretary of state have a little involv

it isn't bill clinton and hillary clinton somewhat compromised here based on the rel vagss we saw out of this? >> hillary clinton's absolutely compromised. from the republican standpoint we have a ton of great women leaders and governors that are coming up in this party. so the idea that we can't criticize hillary without being anti-women, is ridiculous. this is absolutely relevant. it will be relevant in 2016. >> women agree that hillary clinton is a terrible leader, is that it? >> i believe there's a bit of a fantasy world happening here. i also just have to note that it's three guys and me having this conversation. i appreciate being able to speak for all women, i guess. but there is something very powerful about going back to the '90s, which i think tim has just acknowledged is an out of bounds attack. but what is important to really be digging up, if we're going to be digging up, it is about policy. it is about the values that drive policy. and it is about the outcomes that we've seen in the course of over decades -- >> how it is out of bounds? you said that the '90s are out of b

books and bill clinton's speeches. he was giving these speeches for 150 to 200 50/50 thousand dollars a pop for a 15 minute speech at financial firms, in jewish community centers. >> host: john do you think this hurts your chances in 2016? >> guest: the fact is that it's really not even discussed. >> host: all right, any points >> guest: they have done their share of good to not. bill clinton has cgi the event in global initiative where he travels the world and does good things around the world trade i think that's something that the clintons were sitting here they would definitely point out to. >> guest: i hate to use my inexperience against me but look these are all questions that will be answered in the presidential campaign or at least reporters like us will attempt to make -- we have the scene in the look where hillary clinton has to raise money for world's fair in shanghai in a short trade of time. the chinese that it's going to be a big embarrassment if the americans to show up and the whoosh of administration m

this of secretary clinton. she defended the president's health plan against doubting cabinet colleagues, a moment the authors describe at pivotal if underappreciated. in 1994 it was hillary care that doomed the democrats. they think it's obamacare this time around. if she campaigns, they marry her to health care? >> of course. i think that's why we're going to see hillary clinton, she's going to have to have a presence because she's likely running in 2016, but she has the greatest helper in american politics, bill clinton, ready to do her bidding on the campaign trail if she just wants to sit back and do private events, meet with donors and prepare for 2016. >> do you anger the base if you do that? we don't know who will challenge her. someone will challenge her. if you look at the polls that someone is tilting at windmills. but somebody will, and does she raise grievances if she's not out there? >> i don't think so she does. i mean, because i think one of the things that the republicans want to make 2014 as mu

we'll be right back. >>> i don't think bill clinton is as relevant as hillary clinton if hillary clinton decides to run for president. and in her case, i think people will look at her record as the secretary of state and say during that period of time, did our relations with nations around the world elevate america and elevate our interests, or were they receding? and i think her record is what will be judged upon, not the record of her husband. >> i think that guy should go directly into the hall of presidents at disney world. he looks great. >>> on "meet the press" yesterday, bill clinton was once again part of the conversation about hillary clinton's political future, just as she was three weeks earlier when rand paul called former president clinton a predator. gregory asked if he sees them as a political pair. that's when mitt's answer got a little more gritty. >> i think hillary clinton, if she becomes a nominee will have plenty to discuss about her own record. i don't imagine that bill clinton is going to be a big part of it. that being said, the times when he was president were by

bill clinton has cgi, the clinton global initiative, he travels the world and does good things. if a clinton aide were sitting here, they would point out. guest: that the caller would call me on my youth and inexperience, it gets me. these are questions that will be answered in a presidential campaign. reporters will attempt to make. we have a scene in the book where hillary clinton has to raise money for the world's fair in shanghai in a short period of time, the chinese has said it will be an embarrassment if the u.s. does not show up. under the bush administration, there was a decision to not support the world's fair. there was a loophole that allowed the secretary to have some involvement. basically, she hired a couple clinton fundraisers, family friends, to go out and raise money from the private sector, they tapped into the clinton donor network to build a pavilion at the shanghai expo. showing how involved some of those old donors were to her work at the state department. we have a scene where bill clinton inscribes the coffee table book from the shanghai world expo for o

team clinton hasn't responded, but supporters say bill clinton's past is ancient history. of course, paul has a history of needling the clintons, especially the former secretary of state, for her handling of the death of four americans in benghazi. >> had i been president at the time, and i found that you did not read the cables from benghazi, you did not read the cables from ambassador stevens, i would have relieved you of your post. i think it's inexcusable. >> reporter: a tragedy clinton addressed during a speech last month in new orleans. >> my biggest, you know, regret is what happened in benghazi. it was a terrible tragedy, losing four americans , two diplomats, and now it's public so i can say two cia operatives. houston, paul hit harder.ht in >> we're talking about six months of ignoring repeated, one after another, requests for security. but then the coup de gras, when she was asked for reinforcements, she turned down reinforcements, and we should never, ever have a commander in chief who won't send reinforcemen reinforcements. >> but according to a new book about

so i think bill clinton's presidency as well as bill clinton himself have very positive impressions. and the whole business with monica lewinsky has been processed. it is nothing new. you have clinton bashers of the '90 and see 2014 will raise that and white water. kathleen suggested the clintons had something to do with the death of her husband and death of her cats. really starting to drudge up all the old muck again. as they did in the '90s when the anticlintonites overplayed hands of impeachment are doing the same thing. >> democrats from 1932 through probably 1960 something ran against herbert hoover. they didn't stop. i will probably not forget w.'s take against the war of iraq for many decades. and after the civil war the republicans ran for 30 or 40 years on the bloody shirt. when does it run out of steam politicly that bill clinton got impeached? >> i think it has long since run out of steam and their attempt to revive it is probably going to fail except within their own -- >> he is not running again. >> the memories of the '90s in terms of the economy are glowing and post p

clinton said revenge. we don't like vengeful politicians, been through this chris christie's policies. does it hurt her? >> it's very impressionistic. one data point will build a large picture and if this makes her seem like a political sleaze ball from the '90s it will be pretty powerful in the primaries. i don't think it will have an effect in the primaries. during a general election, sure. >> a show of hands at the table if anyone thinks access to the diane blair files and recycling all of this is going to lead somebody credible to decide i can challenge hillary clinton in the democratic primaries. seeing no hand. >> it will be some ambitious democrat, not a well-known democrat who sees this sense of clinton nostalgia among democrats and antagonism among the republicans saying that's my opening. there is going to be space that someone can represent the new democrats. >> one thing that seems to be pretty resonant from 2016 is the membere from stan greig bertha said voters perceive hillary clinton as a li

she attacks hillary clinton for going after the women that accuse bill clinton. i think that's more dangerous. >> that popped up, the aspect of calling monica lewinsky a nut ball. >> it popped up in the 'nants and it wasn't enough to take bill clinton down in the 1990s. the impeachment was an unpopular thing. >> that's all they need. this is the rand paul, the washington community, fox news. you've already seen mitt romney and karl rove, the establishment of the party saying let's be careful about this. let's talk about hillary clinton. let's talk about benghazi. let's not talk about monica lewins lewinsky. the party will figure out hillary is probably running, how to we attack her? rand paul is going in one direction. it will be curious which one ends up being the find threat. >> the other question raise there had is, okay yes, maybe the entirety of the party doesn't want to go back to the '90s and talk iing about sexual harassment but they -- there's a recognition that, hey, hillary clinton's spouse now has a 0% approval rating, something they've never had to d

the clinton has cgi, clinton global initiative, he travels the world and does good things. if a clinton aide were sitting here, they would point out. caller wouldhe call me on my youth and inexperience, it gets me. these are questions that will be answered in a presidential campaign. reporters will attempt to make. to them. we have a scene in the book where hillary clinton has to raise money for the world's fair in shanghai in a short period of time, the chinese has said it will be an embarrassment if the u.s. does not show up. under the bush administration, there was a decision to not support the world's fair. there was a loophole that allowed the secretary to have some involvement. basically, she hired a couple clinton fundraisers, family raises, to go out and money from the private sector, clintonped into the donor network to build a pavilion at the shanghai expo. showing how involved some of those old donors were to her work at the state department. we have a scene and there will bill clinton inscribes the coffee table book from the shanghai world expo for one of those

clinton was said to be having affairs with. and monica, i think it has to do with the situation with senator bob packwood, talking about the potential to pass for health care, that matters, she essentially dismissed the sexual assault because it didn't go with the political merit of the day. that matters, she should explain it. >> let's at least have your viewers hear, this is supposed to be a reporter who reports facts rather than an idealgue, there are certain people that are interested in what happened many years ago, people like me said the attack on george bush was ill illegitimate, if you want to use this kind of example, you have that ligright. but most americans will not be paying you attention. >> i would just disagree, i think what lanny is doing is trying to make a personal attack rather than debating whether the issues matter today. >> i thought you were personally attacking hillary clinton. >> i am just trying to discuss what the blair papers -- >> a personal attack -- >> they were in that information, it was publi

of course rand paul is going to go after hillary clinton and bill clinton. it's smart short-term because if you're running for president, you need to get the nomination. and you can't get the nomination if you don't rile up the far right. >> she lives in washington and giving speeches. she has downtime. i'm sure she is watching television, programs like this other programs. what is this all teaching her? you first, what is to come? and the decision she has to make ultimately after all the presumptions and all the thinking, she still has to make that existential decision to jump off that cliff or not, to go for it. >> does she really want to relive all of the nastiness. all the horribleness. this is going to be three years -- >> is that part of the game they're playing? is it possibly part of the game? >> well, sure there is nothing new she has to learn. she knows what her weaknesses are. >> this is like running for mayor of new york. >> remember -- >> the weiner primary. the crazy primaries where all you're talk about is. >> sex. >> and crazy stuff. >> she h

of today is not the bill clinton e.j. was just talked about. he was a moderate democrat president. harold ford was the upcoming star of the democrat party. today bill clinton is out there doing events with bill deblasio, the progressive mayor of new york city. over the last ten years, through the iraq war, through the primary challenge joe ses tech put up to joe lieberman, through the rice and fall of howard dean how the democrat party has become so much more progressive. >> it's the democratic party and i think that that misread who's bill clinton was. bill clinton always had a strong populist streak, one of the reasons he won in 1992. yes, he had the correction that the democratic party needed. ha the democratic party needed. he campaigned on raising taxes for the rich in 1992. this is not -- >> there's a big gap between the era of big government is over and bill deblasio saying the horses that go around central park -- >> let me get mona back into this. andrea raised something before that is very interesting. is hillar

president clinton's heart troubles were not over. when the devastating earthquake struck haiti in 2010, president clinton flew to port-au-prince to support the relief efforts. i spent time with him and saw that he looked tired, not himself. >> got all pale and weak and then i got all these letters from the doctor crowd saying, yeah, it's normal because fools like you won't do what you're supposed to do because you don't eat like you should, don't exercise like you should. >> the doctor said it was a mechanical failure of the bypass and he needed stents to open the blocked artery. >> i got so lucky they were able to put those two stents in, you know, and fix an artery that was pretty bent and ugly. >> the goal of the treatment and i think it will be achieved is for president clinton to resume his very active lifestyle. this was not a result of either his lifestyle or his diet which have been excellent. >> but dr. dean ornish didn't see it that way. >> so i wrote him a letter. i said the friends that mean to most to me are friends that

clinton. while the panel led by thomas pickering on the right, and admiral mike mullen never interviewed senior executives, they regretted the congressional findings. >> i think if anyone in the house would like to question the credibility of ambassador pickering or admiral mullan, they can do so. we stand by the review for findings. >> in a new biography documenting mrs. clinton's years as secretary of state, petraeus seems to offer an endorsement, she would be a tremendous president. in the wake of the benghazi attacks, for example, i thought she was extraordinarily resolute, determined, and controlled. >> i don't know what's on his mind. i think the secretary of state and the entire administration mishandled it before, during, and after the attack. >> some lawmakers have accused petraeus of providing questionable testimony. saying he put the emphasis on the anti-islam video. he later claimed he knew it was terrorism from day one. >> thank you. >>> up next, a sentencing in the operation fast

far technique and the obligation to protect hillary clinton. >> what about bill clinton? he figures promise thanly and there was a liter back to 1996 where he was setting up a meeting with a woman whose name was not revealed. is it fair to gather that information? he could be back in the white house as the first man. >> rand paul would like to excavate that. >> he keeps bringing it up. >> you are both making the biggest point which there is stuff in there interesting that would have a big bearing on her fitness for action or her trustworthiness but that has to do nothing with what she thought of lewinsky. >> she can handle this. who can roll with this? if you are talking about whether it matters...in the press...okay, maybe. but does it matter to her? veries very doubtful. >> part of this is she is in a weird limbo. everyone assumes she is running, or will probably run or most likely run and all the horse race coverage assumes she is the democratic nominee. at the same time, in comes out and because she is not a candidate, she is not in contact with journalists and does n

is it to tell bill clinton that this march through a second clinton presidency is going to be a bit messy? is it to tell the democrats overall out in the country that they'll have a choice in the winter and spring of 2016? well, the question for me, why is joe biden, an experienced leader, willing to pay the price for what he is now putting out there, the need to back up his words with an all-out battle for the nomination with someone so many believe has it all locked up. after all, these entry tickets aren't free. why put himself out as vice president biden has now done if he knows at some point between now and the iowa caucuses, he'll have to pull himself out? or back. howard fineman is editorial director of "the huffington post" and msnbc news political analyst. mark halperin is the co-author of "double down", a great book and msnbc analyst as well. howard, biden doesn't have to say these things. he can say heim not going to talk about that. he can say that's always on people's minds. i don't want to talk about it, barbara. but barbara walters is one tough interviewer, and she stuck at

is bill clinton popular in kentucky. >> bill clinton is popular. there's not been a poll here that's been leased publicly but i'm told by democrats who have seen some of the polling, bill clinton is in the 60s in the polling here which is a big increase from barack obama who is about in the 30s right now in terms of polling. that's why they want him. bill clinton is popular. i think you might see a joe biden come here as well. that's another popular democrat in the state. it's more like bill clinton brings donors here. also enthusiasm here. he's someone when they talk about minimum wage, issues like that, when we come back in october, november, close to the election. they think he's an asset throughout. and they think he's someone who gives democrats a lot of confidence. >> it's interesting, perry, it's where you're starting to see the playing field where they start to parcel out clinton and biden in the places where they'll be most helpful? >> yes. i think there are five states to watch. arkansas where clinton said he's going to campaign in. georg

it's clinton, 49, christie, 36. clinton tops marco rubio by 14, 50-36. she beats jeb bush by 15, 51-36. and the republican who fares worst, ted cruz. he is down 17 in ohio, 51-34. and we'll be right back. up late. thinking up game-changing ideas, like this: dozens of tax free zones across new york state. move here. expand here. or start a new business here... and pay no taxes for 10 years. with new jobs, new opportunities and a new tax free plan. there's only one way for your business to go. up. find out if your business can qualify at start-upny.com >>> welcome back to "hardball." two years before the iowa caucuses for 2016, the far right is beginning to attack on the clintons. it's called shaping the battlefield, if you will. the chairman of the republican national committee, reince priebus, started this week with a tweet. remember all the clinton scandals? that's not what america needs again. anyway, today on the mother jones website, david corn, our pal, with help from national memo's some of the tales including the vince foster suicide, which some o

i think this is a kind of perverse compliment to the clintons, particularly hillary clinton. they are genuinely afraid of her. by all accounts in the polls, she is the strongest candidate in next election. they want to undercut her. they saw what bill clinton did for president obama in the last campaign. i think a lot of republicans know this won't work, and what is hillary clinton supposed to have done about it? it's not her scandal. should she have divorced bill clinton? that's exactly the opposite of what pro family conservatives said you should do. this is not a winning path for them. i think they'll figure it out. i think they're just trying to weaken her a little bit as we go along. >> angela, do you think it makes hillary clinton stronger at this point? it's one cheap shot at another and it's collective from the right. >> i have to take it back to their gop autopsy report. this was supposed to be a report where they are learning how to reach out to women and blacks and latinos. she had a successful tenure as a secretary of state, despite the ways in which they tried to

rand paul tries to smear hillary clinton by going after bill clinton. he called him a predator again. this guy just trying to curry favor with those on the right or does he think this stuff will actually work in a primary situation? we'll see. >>> and look. who sees no obvious reason why he shouldn't run for president, joe biden. well one obvious reason is hillary clinton. is he ready to run against hillary clinton? that's my issue. i know it seems strange. i think he is basically wanting us to believe he is willing to go up against her for a lot of reasons. >>> finally, let me finish tonight with how the pattern in the christie matter is so clear now, crystal clear. this is "hardball," the place for politics. ♪ nothing says, "you're my #1 copilot," like a milk-bone biscuit. ♪ say it with milk-bone. ♪ ♪ ♪ abe! get in! punch it!

he likes hillary clinton. even know there will come a time when he'll go after her, again, he respects her and it's also his way of criticizing barack obama. >> so we have an interesting election coming up, jonathan, with hillary clinton, hillary rodham clinton probably running for president. if she runs against somebody on the far right like rand paul, which i think is credible at this point, plausible, could she grab some of the republican vote? especially the women vote? >> absolutely think that is a credible challenge that rand paul is bringing up now, and i think he'll be a strong candidate in the republican primary. i do think she in that case would have an opportunity to capture some of the republican vote. the country is pretty polarized but hillary clinton has often reached out to republicans in the past as secretary of state, she got credit from a lot of republicans for being the one person in the obama administration who would only to the hill and work with them a lot. there are donors, northeastern

for hillary clinton. there are lots of good things associated with the presidency. we saw how effective he is on the campaign stump when he was in kentucky for allison grimes, but problems in the president c famously that she'll be forced to deal with. >> speaking of relitigating the clinton presidency, let's turn to the tea party. interesting things coming on the fifth anniversary of the tea party. chris, i want to ask our latest nbc news wall street journal poll shows as the tea party turns five, support is low, 24% support the movement, 65% do not support it. the highest we should say of th 30%. what does this say about how strong this party is and about the potential future of the tea party? >> so i think as you mentioned, the highest support has ever been is 30%. it's not exactly a massive drop in tea party support. i think this was always a niche appeal and niche group. i would say just because of niche appeal and group, doesn't mean the tea party doesn't retain power. we saw it in the 2010 election

plus, the rebirth of hillary clinton. how does she run as a presidential candidate for changing in 2016, if she runs? this morning we'll have the exclusive first look at a new book with allegations about revenge, loyalty and her so-called hit list. and some new battle lines in congress. were the republicans right? will obamacare cost millions of jobs or is that a misinterpretation of a new report that came out in washington? we're going to have the debate as i put two leading senators on the spot this morning. meantime, i start off with the roundtable. everybody's here. david brooks from the "new york times," e.j. dionne, as well, andrea mitchell, chief foreign affairs correspondent and this week, mike needham, ceo of the conservative lobbying group heritage action for america and mona sutphen. welcome to all of you. andrea, get us started here. still a lot of concerning about security as great as the games have been so far. >> a lot of concern about security, not just sochi. primarily not sochi but mostly the area, russi

kentucky senator rand paul who's revived attacks on the clintons, in particular bill clinton, over the monica lewinsky affair. its message? paul is obsessed with the '90s. >> rand paul is out there, he's banging on the clintons every day. now, what's his strategy? >> well, i'm not certain he has a strategy. >> there's a lot of things going on right now that we need to be concerned about other than what happened 15 years ago. >> the record is what will be judged upon. >> it's not a long-term winning strategy for republicans. let's all go back and dance the macarena and talk about 1998. ♪ >> by the way, given that paul has called bill clinton a sexual predator, this rebuke of former rocker ted nugent and warning to conservatives yesterday was perhaps, to some, a little rich. >> there are times when people are using language that shouldn't be used, and i recently criticized someone for using that language, and i'm not going to bring it up. i will say we can disagree with the president without calling him names. there are people out in the public that are taking away from our message, so

that hillary clinton set out to ruin her. >> hillary clinton is the war on women. and i think that she needs to be exposed for all of the terror campaigns that she has raised against women who were in the wrong place at the wrong time with her husband. >> even before that interview aired last night the larger media had declared that discussing hillary clinton's past or her handling of her husband's inappropriate behavior was sexist and irrelevant. but is that how the media has treated coverage of conservatives and republicans? brent, i pointed out on the show the other night, "the washington post" has pointed out mitt romney's bullying incident, that his high school bullying was front page news for them. but hillary clinton's behavior in the oval office, in the white house, that is not relevant? >> it is such a double standard, it is extraordinary. if you're a republican, anything you did in your past is newsworthy. ie, what george bush and what was the 1971 in the national guard is newsworthy. what mitt romney did when he was 15 years old is front page on "the was
