status quo, people who want things to change, people who are looking the message i'm going to change washington and they're not out for you, there are different prescriptions to the same kind of problem that they're hearing defined by all these candidates. >> interesting talking about donald trump and bernie sanders have something in common. a lot of people who like them are angry and are angry at how things have been going. they like to watch it. we love it in the media. it's good for us. maybe not good for hillary clinton. some would say bad for the democratic party because it would show there's a schism. is that true? >> we had a long fight in 2008 and it didn't work out that. democratic voters wanted to see this young senator barack obama go toe to toe with a heavyweight for all 50 rounds. it's a little bit different now. a little thing i would be worried about if i were the clinton campaign is bernie sanders has raised a large amount in small donations. hillary clinton is reliant on what will be maxed out donors. she's going to have to be watching that as this goes on. the longer it goes,

we've had plenty of people in washington making all kinds of bad deals. the last thing we need in washington is someone who is going to focus on making a deal regardless of the outcome. >> i don't think that's what he's saying. >> i think what donald trump is saying he's someone who has staked his career on, quote, making deals. we've had deals coming out of washington that have taken the country in exactly the wrong direction. >> ron, ron, you can make deals as long as you make them in the right direction. >> this is a choice between someone who has been a, quote, conservative for about six months. versus someone who has been a reliable conservative and challenging the washington cartel and problems in both parties. that's what ted cruz is doing. that's the type of leadership that we need. >> ron, the exit polls, the cnn exit polls, out of new hampshire showed that those who voted in new hampshire who self-identified as quote/unquote very conservative gave the nod to donald trump over ted cruz by 12 points. i understand what you're saying, but the people

he didn't go to washington and play the game like marco rubio did. let's be clear about that. when he went there, he made it very clear i'm going to go and stand up for tea party conser conservative values. they were not popular in the senate. he stood up for values. he's never flip-flopped on partial birth abortion like trump has done. why don't you use that same logic towards trump and rubio that you're using towards ted cruz? it's a double standard. >> we still fund obamacare and planned parenthood. we still have syrian refugee relocation. he's in the senate and he said he would stop it and he didn't. he is talking about things he would do. he's got zero to show for it. >> hogan, as a senator he said i will go and fight to repeal obamacare. that's what he did as a senator. as a senator, you know this. you can only fight for it. he didn't say he was going to go up there and be the president. he said he was going to be a senator and fight against it. that's a man who has character and fights for his word. more than rubio did. >> you built d coalitions to ge things accomplishe

his focus instead is on fighting the washington cartel, breaking up washington as usual, getting the message to the american people that they want to hear, that they want someone who is consistent, who is a conservative that they can trust. that's the focus. rick is a phenomenal, wonderful person. he's apologized. marco rubio has accepted the apology. we're moving on. we're going to focus on the people of nevada and reviving our economy and making our military strong. >> you talk about trust. look, this is not the first time your campaign has come under fire for an ad or a posting as we all know. you were criticized for the ad showing marco rubio shaking hands with president obama. the rubio campaign accused you of photoshopping the ad. it was not a picture of marco rubio and president obama. it was remarkably similar to an image you can find online. should the leaders of the campaign be responsible for the candidate himself? >> look, as we said, he's taken action and we're moving forward. now is the time for us to focus on what the people of nevada are concerned with and it is about

we have to run this bunch out of washington d.c. we have to rid the earth of them. get them out of there. >> all right. on the democratic side it's even closer when you look at the numbers in the polls. hillary clinton with a 3 point lead over bernie sanders and statistically that's a tie because it's in the poll's margin of error so that's called a dead heat. the candidates are fanned out making their last minute pitch to voters at this hour and late into tonight. they don't want to miss a moment. you don't want to look back with regret. phil is here in des moines and that is where ted cruz will be holding a major rally tonight. our senior white house correspondent is in iowa. that's where donald trump is about to speak live at any moment. how confident is he about winning iowa? the polls show him ahead but it all comes down to turn out. does he think in a state where caucus going is an inherited thing that people are going to show up for him? >> that's the million dollar question and we're going to get that answer tomorrow night. i asked the campaign manager for d

we have to run this bunch out of washington, d.c. we have to rid the earth of them, get them out of there. >> on the democratic side, it's even closer when you look at the actual numbers in the polls. hillary clinton with a three-point lead over bernie sanders in the latest des moines register poll. statistically a tie within the poll's margin of error, that's called a dead heat. the candidates are fanned out across the state. making the last-minute pitch to voters and late into tonight. don't want to miss a moment. you don't want to look back with regret come late tomorrow night. we begin with the republican race. phil mattingly is in des moines. our senior white house correspondent jim acosta is in sioux city, iowa where donald trump is about to speak. jim, i'll start with you, how confident is he about winning iowa? it comes down to turnout. does he think in a state where caucus-going seems to be an inherited thing that people are going to show up for him? >> well that's the million-dollar question. we're finally going to get that

>> i think it really comes down to the fact that washington has become so corrupt by the donor class and the special interest, and we need to fix it from the outside in instead of the inside. and donald trump is the only candidate in the race that isn't completely controlled by the washington to wall street axis of power. we need someone to go and shake things up and make significant changes. he's the only one that has the capability to do that. >> donald trump lives in a manhattan penthouse and doesn't like to spend the night outside of new york and he's not taking money from people outside of new york but he's as new york as it gets. ted cruz, of course, now famously said new york values to imp ply a lot of negative things about materialism and apply that to donald trump. you obviously don't think that is right. >> i don't. i think a lot of that is because he's been an executive. he's hired tens of thousands of american workers across the country. so he's been able to see how to create those jobs and the impact the decisions he makes has on their families. and the other guys on the

i was involved in the freedom ride, the march on washington, the march from selma to montgomery and directed a voter education project for six years, but i met hillary clinton. i met president clinton. >> and as the battle for black voters heats up, sanders nabbed the endorsement from harry bellefonte. bellefonte says sanders represents opportunity. brianna, this is a crucial night. the two candidates are moving into the deep south, into these key southern primaries and are trying to shore up their support among minority voters who are such a huge voting block there. >> reporter: yeah, certainly. you see this run-up with this endorsement race going on today, erin. a really tough day. i think tough words from john lewis for bernie sanders. i spoke to an aide to bernie sanders who said john lewis is a great american hero that bernie sanders respects. that just goes to show you you don't push back against an icon like john lewis, but we've heard supporters of bernie sanders trying to back him up here saying, look, he was an activist, he was arrested. he's out with an ad starring erica garner, w

you hear republicans and democrats, both of them, calling washington just a game. i think you're seeing both of these candidates really grabbing on to that type of message. the cleavage wasn't in the 90s i believe. it was the last recession. you started to see the tea party movement and the populist movement. we're seeing it take place and flourish in this campaign. >> donald trump self-funded. bernie sanders funded by small donors. neither taking big money from special interests. the clintons earned $153 million from speeches over 14 years. it is a stark contrast to that. >> it is. for two different reasons. obviously donald trump doesn't need anybody's money. if anybody missed that montage of clips, he will tell you he's very, very rich. he doesn't need anyone's money. bernie sanders has been fighting against the power and influence of big banks and big corporations his whole career in washington. his whole campaign is being fueled by small donations. it is funny when you look at them and you see they come together on this one issue, erin. >>> next hillary clinto

the ran kor in washington has kept us from getting work done. we're going to find somebody who is an outstanding legal mind, somebody who cares deeply about our democracy, and cares about rule of law. any fair-minded person, even somebody who disagreed with my politics, would say, would serve with honor and integrity on the court. >> reporter: an interesting diverse group, a federal judge born in india, served in both the obama and bgss. worked on indications that supported gay marriage, but also big oil and mining companies. congress approved him to the federal bench unanimously two years ago. you can see how such choices could put republican opponents in a tough spot. and that may well be the strategy. choose a moderate that could spark a storm of criticism if republicans refuse to even take it up. or if a liberal choice helped rally democrats to get out and vote. today in a "washington post" op-ed, harry reid blasted republicans' vows to shut a nominee out. it will ensure the republican majority is remembered as the most nakedly partisan, obs

brianna keilar in las vegas, also marissa rosenberg, a culture columnist for "the washington post" and a supporter of clinton. bri, let me begin with you. inch nevada, a very different electorate. we saw how the polls changed in the past few months. what's she doing on the trail to get those votes? >> this is a more diverse state, mainly due to a sizable hispanic majority which hillary clinton does pretty well with. from the get-go, coming out here last spring, for her first campaign event in nevada, she focused very much on immigration. we're seeing that today with a new ad she's out with airing here in nevada. where she's talking about the fear of deportations. here's part of it. >> my parents, they have a letter of deportation. i'm scared for them because they might be deported. >> come here. [ applause ] i'm going to do everything i can so you don't have to be scared. >> that was an event that happened here in nevada last weekend. you also see bernie sanders trying to cut into hillary clinton's support with hispanic voters. talking about how he in favor of a pathway to citizenship

people to rein in washington. my view is that movement will keep growing and growing. one of two things is going to happen, either congress will finally listen and send term a minute to the states for ratification, where we will see a movement in the states. one are the other, we will get it done. yes? hold on one second for the microphone. >> what is your plan for improving the infrastructure of america, including roads, bridges? whenever going to get the work on the ground in america? ted cruz: terrific question. one of the problems we have right now is taxpayers send money to washington. it goes into a black hole. i talked before about the 10th amendment. h amendment is what keeps decision-making close to the people. , for example, you talked about roads and bridges. there is no reason why the federal government should decide what roads and bridges to build in the state of new hampshire. [applause] , theght to take that money transportation money, and block credit back to the states and allow the people of new

people look to washington. and washington is living in a very, very different world. and then on top of all of that is the issue of fairness. is the issue of a rigged economy. which essentially means that ordinary people are working longer hours for low wages. when almost all new wealth and income is going to the top 1%. here is the reality of what goes on which will not -- which will not shock anybody in this world --l street but billions billions of dollars in lobbying and campaign contributions into saying to congress, you have to get rid of these old 1930's regulations. you have to allow commercial banks to merge with investor banks, to merge with large insurance companies. that's the way we can compete, globally. i didn't believe it for one second, not for one second. never made any sense to me. go to my website, you will see the dialogue greenspan and i had. turns out i was right, he was wrong. anyhow, here is the point, billions of dollars going to lobbying. campaign contributions and you , have not just republicans but democrats. let's be frank. greenspan anda

they marched on washington. they sat in. and we made huge breakthroughs. but it happened not because of somebody on top. it happened because millions of people essentially said, enough is enough. what about the women's movement? 100, 150 years ago, women said sorry, we are not going to be treated as third-class citizens. we are going to do the work we want to do. [applause] we are going to be able to vote, to run for political office. huge, terrible, enormous struggles. but women as a result of those made enormous progress. the environmental movement didn't happen in washington. by some senator introducing legislation. it happened because people said what is going on on this planet of ours? you can't destroy it. we have to protect the planet. and you think about something like gay rights. if we were sitting here 10 years ago, and somebody said i think in 2015, gay marriage will be legal in 50 states, the person next to him would have said what are you smoking? which raises another issue.

in washington, there is a little more stiffness. the president wanted to afford world leaders more of an opportunity to have a candid, relaxed discussion. >> when you said that the is standing with advisers on this supreme court issue, is he going over specific list? where is he in the process? again, we are only a few days old here. i am not going to be able to release details of the conversation. my only point is, is the president engaged? yes. that means working with his team and white house officials at the white house and back here to make sure the process is moving forward. when you said you have been reaching out to democrats and republicans on the hill, you mean on the judiciary committee? you can imagine we are hearing from a lot of folks. we are also proactively reaching out to key offices. i do not have a list to detail. ,ut i think in the coming days that outreach will become more extensive. have you guys said when the president will sign legislation on north korea? mr. schultz: i do not have an update for you. >> you ex

we need that in washington, d.c. we need a balanced amendment in washington. i know how to do this because i did it as governor in florida. the reason we had reserves that were high was i had line item veto power, and i used it. 2500 separate times. enoe.called me veto corl corleone. legislators put line items in thembudget, and we called turkeys for some reason in florida. i would take that out of the budget and there was a sigh of i tried touse i said get it done, but the governor was the guy that did not let it happen. i would love to take that responsibility in washington. the next president should have power, to bring order and discipline to the budget. we did something no other state did, and now a few have done it. we eliminated lifetime employment protections for government is. but to makenitive, the point that government is the servant, not the master, of people. how can you be a servant if you have lifetime protections the matter what you do? we change that in florida. the government run is reduced by 13,000 workers. no one came close to that. we did

[ applause ] and perhaps the most pertinent fact, muslim-americans enrich our lives today in every way. they're our neighbors and teachers who inspire our children. doctors who trust us with our health. future doctors like saba. they're scientist who's win nobel prizes. young that create new technology wez use all the time. they're the sports heroes we cheer for. like mohammed ali. one of the americans waving the red, white, and blue will be a fencing champion wearing her hijab in the next olympics. she is here today. stand up. come on. i told her to bring home the gold. not to put any pressure on you. muslim-americans, keep us safe. they're our police and our firefighters. they're in homeland security, in our intelligence community. they serve honorably in our armed forces, meaning they fig

brian: how many years have you been in washington now? since 1996. brian: how many years have you had your daily talk show? mr. press: 10 years. brian: where can people listen? mr. press: on any progressive radio station in the country, if they are lucky to have one. there are only maybe 50 total left in the entire country. we're there. they can listen to it online. billpressshowonline.com. we stream it, 6:00-9:00 a.m. eastern time. if people on the west coast are not up early, they can just go to the website, and listen to the podcast. they can pick up part of the show, one interview, or the whole three hours. by the way, in the archives, they can go back as long as we have been podcasting, at least a couple of years. 15,could listen to july 2013, for whatever reason if you wanted to. brian: you are older than bernie sanders? mr. press: by one year.

our home and in our communities and it's even found in government, it's at the state level, not in washington, d.c. [applause] for the first time in eight years, you will have a president that follows the constitution. office, my day in first moments in office, i will cancel every single one of barack obama's unconstitutional executive orders. everyone of them. when you make me president. when you make me president, we will have a president who embraces a free economy. my parents were not rich people. my father was a bartender and my mother was a maid. the reason why they had a job is because free enterprise works. someone who had access to money asked that money to open up hotel and hire them. free enterprise works because it is the only economic model in the world where you can make poor people richer and you don't have to make rich people poorer. [applause] we are going to save free enterprise. we are going to fix our tax code. i have a plan to do that during we are going to roll back these crazy regulations that come out of the federal government. we are going to save social security and

much better than anybody in washington d c. so, i am an advocate for pushing this down to the state level. there is also a philosophical reason. i have read from cover to cover health care nowhere in the constitution. not there. let's get back to basics. the last thing i say to you is there is a saying, democracy is not a system that does not make mistakes, but it is the best system for fixing mistakes once they are made. you keep your bureaucracy down to the most local level and you have the best chance to fix it. obamacare as all tied up in politics. nothing good is happening. here, you consider down and say by the way, you have 400 state representatives. i trip over hospitals in new jersey you you trip over state representatives. you go to the deli, the dry cleaner, the basketball or football game locally you wind up going to church or synagogue and you are going to run into a state representative somewhere. you can grab and buttonhole them. that is what i would do if i was here. let's celebrate the differences in our states

say to you that the people in charge in washington most selfish, the generation of leadership we have ever had. are people who's attitude it, we'll let tomorrow worry about tomorrow. aboutlet the future worry the future. we don't care if we're leaving our kids in debt. the debt.al with socialans saving security and medicare. people in florida on social security and medicare. bankrupt.ing the good news is, we can fix and save those programs. do.ve a plan to we don't have to change anything for the peep that are on it now ten years.n the next your next president better be willing it tell us the truth. the truth is if we do nothing, they go bankrupt. the truth is they will not look the same for me as they did for parents. i may have to retire 68 instead 67. these programsx or they'll go bankrupt. we've got to get rid of obamacare. everyone running for president will tell you that as a republican. that's done one anything meaningful about it. out thee effort to wipe bailout fund. they were going to bail out yourte companies with money. when i'm president we will wipe out the rest of obama

think of all the rules coming from washington, d.c. in the last 50 years. rule,u think of a single regulation, that we have repealed in the last 50 years? the last thing we repealed is ronald reagan repealed the 55 mile per hour national speed limit. we talked about we have to repeal obama care. the fcc rolled out 400 pages of rules over the internet. it is not helping us. the epa now controls 99% of the water in this nation. we saw how well that worked out for flint, michigan. the point is, ladies and gentlemen we have to start right , away. it is urgent work. we have to restore possibility for every american. we have to cut government down to size and hold the government responsible. we have to put citizens back in charge. that work starts on day one and must continue every day. your work starts on tuesday -- actually, it starts now. walk out of this room. talk to your friends and neighbors. new hampshire picks presidents. pick a president. your work begins in earnest on tuesday. you know. you feel it in your bones. this nation is at a pivotal crossroads.
