and i think there was some of that, though some of that phyllis tacit and some of that those self-imposed. he was ambitious. it took him a a long time to fd his way. in a way, it's interesting, both he and his father are products of their generation. that explains some of the differences. george h. w. bush was a member of the greatest generation. on his 18th birthday as i mentioned earlier he signs up to go into the navy, much to his fathers chagrin. his father once and going to college and become an officer and then go into the service. he decides he wants to get in right now. when his country needs him in the fight. comes back, doesn't talk about it, doesn't rebel. he's a very much in keeping with this generation. george w. bush, on the other hand, why wasn't the hippie that you saw on the campus of harvard university typically in the late 60s, early '70s, did give him space to come to find himself after college. he didn't impose great ambitions on himself. he kind of wandered around 50 said, he talked to me about how he said i could have any possessions. i didn't want any possessions.

phyllis was the head of the phone bank. she was one of the original people. she was concerned that at that time, spring 1989, that we were approaching two refusals for every completed interview. how are we ever goign to get a valid sample? now, it is 15. we get 15 refusals. and there are soft refusals which is thank you. and then there are hard refusals and a hangup. we code them hard and soft refusals. they add up to about 15 to 1. mr. roe: does that include no answers? mr. baselice: no, we will talk to 16 people, and one will do the survey and 15 will refuse. other people screen out which is another calculation. half of the dials we make go to voice mail. it takes a lot more dials. it used to take about 15 or 16 to get a completed interview. -- interview, about 28, 29 years ago. and now it can take 100. 110, depending on where we are calling. fortunately, for polling, and you just saw in the national election that the national polls were pretty good. a number of the states were not far off at all, they were right on. fortunately, for polling, by telephone,

that platform are toussaint la voouter, mum bett who petitioned for her freedom and won as well as phyllis wheatley, all voices of freedom. what's very powerful to me about the connections between banaker and jefferson includes benjamin banaker sending his almanac to thomas jefferson and stating african-americans are brilliant, they are human, they contribute to the development of this nation and deserve to be free. excuse me if i paraphrase, but thomas jefferson said you are the exception and freedom was not going to come during his particular time in life. so, now why don't we go forward and look at making a way. again, remember, this is a human story so in the midst of all of this inhumanity, you still have african americans, again, fighting for freedom, fighting for liberty, fighting for the nation to recognize them as citizens in this world. right? but, as we go forward, we look at well there were laws restricting them, african americans found ways to go around those laws and hold on to their humanity. why don't we go to the section on making a way out of no way. understand that many

this is a volume of poems, published in london in 1773, by a young woman named phyllis wheatley who is the first published african-american poet in american history. phyllis wheatley had been enslaved on the west coast of africa, probably gambia or senegal, brought to the new world in the 1750s, as a young girl maybe about 8 years old, she eventually was sold to a family by the name of wheatley in massachusetts, the daughter in the family, taught her to read and write, and she had a real natural talent for writing verse, at the time this was an extraordinary development. so much so that there were those she began publishing pieces in the newspaper, and they began to be circulated. there was actually a trial held in boston where people like john hancock and other significant figures in the community were brought together to basically put her on trial. ask her questions, to try to determine if it was possible this american woman could have written poetry like this. she passed and they wrote a testimonial saying they believed that she, in fact, had been the talented writer who produced th

who knows george middleton, peter salem or james fortnon, or phyllis wheatley, these people, bernardo degalveez. sacrificed their personal stations and comforts, newfound freedom so their children could be free. how many americans know there was provision among the states, fighting for independence, if you were a slave, which by the way the slaves were white, black, irish, chinese, not just blacks were slaves, it was everybody, most, the majority of the slave population in the founding colonies were english white people that the british government didn't want anymore. they sold their own people into slavery to come over to america to help found it. how many know that the states had a provision that said if you were a slave, you want to fight for independence you're a free man now forever? our 14th amendment did not make black people citizens. they were citizens long before the 14th amendment and they were free before the emancipation proclamation. we had a cultural change that had to happen in the minds and hearts much of the people. that doesn't come through violence and wars that co

by the way, here's phyllis wheatley. and this is another frontis piece to her poems on various subjects, religious and moral, 1773. and she converted to christianity. she was brought here -- we're not entirely sure, of course, against her will. and converted to the christian religion. and then wrote poetry which was praised by george washington and which was rather scorned by thomas jefferson. which reveals i think their relative attitudes. and by the way, washington, she dedicated a poem to washington in which she recommended that he be given a crown and sent a copy of it to him. and asked if he would endorse it in published copies. and he wrote back to her a note in which he said, i'm honored to be so written about by someone visited by the muses as you have been. he said, i'm afraid i can't endorse it because you recommend a crown for me, and i don't think it would be appropriate right now because we're fighting a war against a crown and it will make it look like i have ambitions to become king george iv. so i can't d

phyllis bennis the director of the new internationalism project at the institute for policy studies welcome to you all my first question to mr hunter i would like to ask you this was it worth to take the fight to the united nations when everyone knew that this is going to end with an embarrassing outcome for the united states of america well apparently the president didn't care nor does mrs faily the u.n. ambassador care they're both appealing to a domestic u.s. audience which is composed both of. number of leaders of the american jewish community and a number of leaders of the of the christian. evangelical community they don't really care about world opinion in this or in most other things so you have to see it i think almost entirely in u.s. domestic terms miss bennis from a purely american perspective i mean i can see the rational here for a president to take a decision based on an attempt to appeal to a domestic base when the outcome could be devastating for the u.s. foreign policy that's been absolutely consistent for this administration the notion i think robert hunter is absolutely r

would recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel phyllis bennis says the program director of the new internationalism project of the institute for policy studies she says the u.s. has never been an honest negotiator in the middle east peace process. i think this is a long overdue recognition by the palestinian leadership of a position long held by the majority of palestinian people which is that the united states has never been an honest broker it wasn't twenty five years ago it wasn't twenty years ago it hasn't been under any of these administrations and it isn't now so the deal that was being proposed by the u.s. included explicitly a noncontiguous statelet the the capital would be probably outside of jerusalem in a in a little village called outside of the city of jerusalem it would not have any kind of sovereignty over its air over its water over landing rights over control of its own borders it would not be a state at all that was going to be the u.s. parameters it would never have been accepted and going through the motions of it simply kicks the issue down the road i think wha

phyllis bennis is the program director of the new interest internationalism project at the institute for policy studies and she joins us live from washington d.c. thanks very much for joining us on al-jazeera i just ask you first of all about the point that the palestinian president has said now they're not listening to any kind of peace plan that the u.s. might be bringing in of course the one jarrad christian is supposed to be about to unveil in the new year i guess is the will now talking about it's a real chance they could be shooting themselves in the foot here with that because of course with so much international backing almost has the u.s. on the back votes. no i don't think that they're shooting themselves in the foot as you put it i think this is a long overdue recognition by the palestinian leadership of a position long held by the majority of palestinian people which is that the united states has never been an honest broker it wasn't twenty five years ago it wasn't twenty years ago it hasn't been under any of these administrations and it isn't now so the deal that was bei

joining us live from barcelona to tell us what you're seeing in terms of turnout right now because phyllis as the polls they're predicting a record turnout for this vote. well yes i mean for ten i could be as high as eighty percent that's certainly the hope of the organizers here the industrial which is the largest polling station in the whole of catalonia and as i look over my shoulder they still haven't opened the doors the doing some last minute checks were told to make sure that the operation run smoothly in the queue is running all the way along here and out of the gates behind the camera and down the street a little bit i won't because it's a little bit awkward the space that we're in right now so that's clearly a huge amount of interest in voting and voting early but the expectation of having a definitive outcome essentially resolving this whole council and secession independence crisis looks slim i'm afraid the poll of polls monitoring various opinion polls in the lead up to this vote show that the pro secession bloc the procession parties will probably be the biggest with around f

phyllis was the head of the phone bank. concerned that at that time, when i joined the firm in the spring of 1989 that there were two refusals for every completed interview. how are we ever going to get a valid sample if two people refuse for every one that complete a survey? refusals, soft refusals, no thanks. hard refusals -- they have different four letter words. with the hangup. we have to code them, hard refusals. 15 to one. >> including no answers? will talk to 16 people. one out of the 16 will do the survey. 15 will refuse. other people screen out. about half the dollars we make go to voicemail. it takes a lot more dials. it used to take about 15-16 dials. now, it takes about 100. -- does any of this worth working? the national polls had it pretty good. they were right on. fortunately for polling, by peoplene, we are seeing that are old, young, different rural, suburban, answering surveys, at equal rates. we are getting representative samples. the first thing we do is look at polling to get a male-female put in each
