you were on washington journal. caller: good morning, gentlemen. i only have an opinion that the both parties are nothing but actors and they always try to use situations to their benefit and convince the voters that they are the best for the country. there is not a single person in each party that has the best of the people in their hearts. therefore, my question is, is there any chance that someone with a good heart and a love of god in their heart and they care about the people in this country and those people that are suffering around the world that they can come together, both parties, and bring the world to a calmer situation. host: that is sue in new jersey, any comment? guest: after watching presidential elections for many decades, i think that come to a cynical conclusion that you have to the half crazy or certainly psychopathic to run for president, to think that you are the person who deserves to be most powerful person in the world and that you alone are qualified to do that job. i think sue has a point that the people who run for offic

people look to washington and washington is living in a very different world. on top of all of that is the issue of fairness, the issue of a rigged economy, which essentially means people are working ordinary hours -- working hours for low wages. and there is the issue of wealth and power, which dictates what goes on in america. we have town meetings. the general feeling is there should be more equality. when they look at wall street what they see is a rigged economy. they see a corrupt campaign finance system. all wrapped up in wall street. what i can tell you from personal experience -- the banking committee, which became the financial committee. i was on the committee that dealt with the regulation of wall street. here is the reality that will not shock any american. wall street put billions of dollars in lobbying and campaign contributions into saying you have to get rid of these 1930's regulations. you have to allow commercial banks to merge with investor banks, to merge with large insurance companies. i didn't believe it for one second, not for one second

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. [laughter] why would you ask that? brian: well, i am going to ask it that way. for this reason. why do you get up at 4:00 in the morning to do a 6:00 a.m. show, why do you stayed up late to be doing a sh

this is from today's "washington journal." gary lambert joining us, a bush campaign supporter, former new hampshire state senator. senator lambert, why you supporting jeb bush? guest: i think the main thing is i have spent 35 years in the marine corps and i am looking for commander-in-chief, someone who will keep our country safe, make us safer than we are right now and i think jeb bush is that man. host: why? guest: he has a great plan to the beat isis, a great plan to take care of veterans. if you take a look at the field out there right now, unfortunately, there are some folks who are do not think should be our commander-in-chief and i think jeb bush is the man to do the job right. host: jeb bush is in fifth place. according to the most recent poll, is support when from 6% to 10%. is this place good enough? guest: it depends what point you take a look at. i just saw one, i think harper pulled, it hasn't in second place in new hampshire, so -- it has him in second place in new hampshire, so i think you would do quite well an

for example, if you have a model saying hillary clinton will get 106% of the vote in washington, , i used to think who really cares? she is going to win d.c. anyway. she may. you can vote twice in some parts of d.c. [laughter] nate silver: now, that bothers me more. i'm trying to think more about the correct functional form of a model that would apply when the going gets weird. when the going gets weird is when things are interesting. tyler: we have four minutes left. next question. >> my name is richard, i am an intern at the house of representatives. do you believe facebook and twitter has led to possible confirmation bias and led to people choosing more extreme views of political ideologies such as socialism, nationalism, marxism? nate silver: perhaps. the traditional two-dimensional political spectrum is a strange and contrived thing, too. it is the result of a very messy process of coalition building between parties. i mentioned reasons to be pessimistic earlier. a reason to be optimistic as a fan of democracy is you are seeing voice given to quirkier ideologies that are no less

and as we wait for the house, more about the iowa caucuses from this morning's washington journal. get ready to cauc catherine lucey joins us. let's begin with this poll from the des moines register some of the bloomberg political poll. donald trump is on top was 28%, followed by senator ted cruz at 23%, which slipped a little bit. senator marco rubio follows with 15%. dr. ben carson at 10%. withing it out, rand paul 5%. chris christie with 3%. the others with 2% or less. catherine lucey, what are your predictions for tonight on the republican side? guest: i think we have all learned not to make too many predictions for it obviously, donald trump has remained a leader for a very long time. looking into this pretty good, and ted cruz has lost some ground. i think the big questions we're waiting to see is the difference here between organization and momentum. donald trump has a lot of enthusiasm, a lot of excitement. there are a lot of people at his rallies who say they have never caucused before. ted cruz has invested heavily in a very strong traditional organization to turn people

rumorsss: i had heard around washington that he might be thinking about it. so i went to see him in his office, and i said what do i hear? mr. presshe told me he was thint it. this was 2014. he was only thinking about it in realized that he had that the only way people will seriously take you seriously particular issue seriously -- or take your issue seriously as if you run for president. you can be a senator and give speeches, and nobody pays attention. if you are a presidential candidate, there is an are about that. these issues that he talks about should be front and center in this 2016 presidential primary. somebody had to do it. if somebody else did it, fine, but if nobody else did it he was thinking he might do it. the other person at the time they thought, would be elizabeth warren. had run, i'mwarren pretty confident to think that bernie sanders would have never run. at the first meeting, i suggest, i said if you are really serious , what you ought to do is get a group of people together have been involved in presidential campaigns, and before that i

they use the same word over and over again about washington. washington is just a game. they want someone to talk to them and channel some of their own anxieties. i think that bernie sanders and donald trump have done that remarkably well. host: line for democrats, bill's waiting in contract c go ahead. caller: -- kentucky, go ahead. caller: throughout the entire primary all i have heard is tax cuts for the wealthy. and yet everybody talks about how the wealthy has had nothing but tax cuts. 50% since reagan. really? and yet only thing that the republicans want to talk about is the fact that there's no money for government. yet there's plenty of money for wars. they want to privatize everything, but yet it's just to make somebody else wealthy. look at your prison system. since they privatized it, somebody's getting wealthy off of it. host: james pindell, tax policy on the campaign trail. guest: as i said yerl, this is one area where we should be having a very robust debate. new hampshire cares a lot about taxes. there is no income tax, no sales tax. very fiscally conserva

and away washington did not anticipate. if the convention is brokered in a way that does not reflect the popular vote put forward through the primary process, that will be an enormous story with huge ramifications. independent line, james is next. wanting toas just chart where you guys are on a political spectrum. i have been reading politico forever p you were in barack obama's back market -- back pocket for the eight years of your existence. it seems like you love him on just about bailouts and solyndra and tax policy. prettymidwest, you guys much our northeastern elitists with most of the people on your staff. policy, you are probably secretly all for bernie standard -- bernie sanders. i do not know where you stand. but you have to change because you know, people are in a silent revolution with the way they thatpolitical junkies know politico is pretty much lukewarm , lefty. i just wanted to have your opinion on where you guys are and what you plan to do after a conservative gets in the white house. guest: i am happy to

and it did not come from washington. washington despised ronald reagan. by the way, do you know which candidate will take on washington? just ask yourself the question, who is washington attacking? revolution came from the american people, and it turned to this country around. why am i so optimistic? isause the same thing happening again. all across this country, people are waking up, and let me tell you. nevada has a powerful voice in that. we are 30 hours away from the nevada caucuses. , nevada has a voice. now, listen. historically, not that many people come out. last cycle, it was 32,000 people came to the caucuses. that means every one of you has a voice where you are speaking for hundreds if not thousands if not millions of courageous conservatives across this country when you come out tomorrow night and cast your vote. and so, if you agree with me that it is now or never, that the stakes have never been higher, that we are standing at the edge of a cliff staring down, and if we keep going the we risk doing, irreparable damage to the greatest countr

so washington, d.c. looked down to the textile capital of the world and all of a sudden government contracts came funneling into this area asking the mental illness here to begin producing for the war effort initially for our allies and then of course for the united states as well. >> and on american history tv. >> we're standing right here. this was a nasty spot. hard to believe now looking at it, one of the best parks in the country but this really was a very depressed, nasty place. it's a great story of how a ommunity can get behind a park and start to appreciate and cherish its river and its waterfalls again. > watch the c-span cities tour saturday. sunday afternoon at 2:00 on american history tv on c-span-3. he c-span city's tour. republican presidential candidate jeb bush talks with supporters in columbia, south carolina. during his remarks he outlined his plans to improve the military, schools, and the department of veterans affairs. . i'm here on behalf of governor jeb bush. i retired from the na

[applause] [crowd chanting] mr. trump: so, again, we have to thank the candidates because the

the guys in washington care about that. it varies not just from country to country, but state to state and even from melissa pahlavi -- they cannot do a lot about where they're located. these regulations could impact the man in a negative way. they can impact the way to execute projects. that try lot of people to mold those legislations to limit the potential to refiners. sometimes they are successful and sometimes they are not. also, making wise investment decisions to make compliance more cost-effective. demand and wet have seen a little bit of that from howard. obviously, the developing countries is where all the demand has been in the last 10 years. increased by the last 9.9% in that impacted the global recession in 20 -- 2009. almost 14 million barrels a day increased in the emerging economies. the developed economies lost 4.5 million barrels a day. 1.4 million barrels of that is the u.s.'s share. we have seen a bit of a change in the current low-price environment. the response to low prices. of the product demand grow

[applause] it came from the american people and it turned this country around. why am i so optimistic? because the same thing is happening. when we launched this campaign, "the new york times" promptly cruz cannot win because the washington elite despis despise him." i kind of thought that was the whole point of the campaign. [applause] listen, if you think things in thenngton are doing great, we need to keep heading in the same pesek direction -- basic direction, fiddle around the edges, make some deals, i ain't your guide. on the other hand, if you think washington is fundamentally broken, that there is a bipartisan corruption of career politicians in both parties that get in bed with the lobbyists and special interests and keep growing and growing and growing government, and we need to take power out of washington and that to we the people, that is what this campaign is all about.

establishment and the washington cartel. a candidate who was dismissed outright by the media, some called him 15 points to 20 tonts behind but you refused let the establishment and the cartel and the media do your thinking for you, you refused to let them how to vote. you wanted a candidate who did not adopt his positions because of the latest opinion poll. instead, because of a deep and underlying conservative philosophy the grounded him so he knew exactly what he believes, exactly what the principles were in this great nation. and so tonight, i want to say to the people of new hampshire, thank you for what you did 36 years ago, thank you for giving america and the world and yes, history itself, the 40th president of the united states ronald reagan.

it is a perennial topic in washington. everyone recognizes we could do the way our military buys weapons and services, they keep trying and it is a difficult problem to solve and i do not think anyone has come up with a good solution yet. made incremental progress in some areas. there has been an initiative in the pentagon called better buying power. they try to make sure the pentagon is getting a good price for its weapons and for the services it contracts for. still shortcomings in that and it will actually take many years before we could see the effects of that to see if what they are doing now is being more efficient. it is something congress has in taking up and i know the senate and house armed services committee's past acquisition reform legislation last year and made some changes to the system. they will probably come back this year and passmore changes. there is always more that could done but it is a difficult problem when you have got such a large and massive organization buying so many different things and ofte

so we're covering technology policy in washington, health care policy in washington, energy policy in washington. 15 different policy verticals where we try to bring that same sense of urgency and that same sense of swarming over the story probably a little less visible. the other thing we've learned, it's been a great surprise. even in this sort of speeded up era of digital news. the long form piece, the magazine piece that might go for 3,000, 4,000, 5,000 words, people will read that. they'll share it, they'll post it on facebook. it'll go viral. if it's good. there's very little appetite for a long thumb sucker. but if the piece is revelatory, it'll go as viral as any kind of sort of piece of daily shouting from the campaign trail. the original work is what gets a voice and gets an audience. host: with that approach, though, what do you do editorially to keep over the reporters who report? how do you keep things in shape that way when it comes to editorial oversight and content? >> well -- guest: well, we try to be a team. the best and most important factor, the editors. when we we

can a businessman deal with washington politics? >> i think there is a lot of anxiety around certain pieces of his background particularly in foreign policy. his praise for vladmir putin, for instance, has raised some eye brows around capitol hill. senator claire mccaskell said she thought there would be giggled around the globe if he were dealing with foreign leaders. so that i think is an area of real concern that he doesn't have experience in. and some of his stancings are pretty controversial. for instance, he said he would build a wall along the southern border with mex coand deport all the illegal immigrants. that doesn't bode well for trying to reach some compromise on the overhaul of the system and lawmakers have said they don't think anything would happen on that if trump were elected president. >> and what former mexican president fox saying no way mexico would pay for the wall. >> i think the payment of that could become contentious among other things. it seems hard to imagine that congress would appropriate funding for t

isst: in washington, it tough. i'm a democrat and we have some challenges in overcoming a philosophy here. that basically says they are on their own. one of the things that is troubling about the senator's ourent, is that these are american citizens who are facing a big struggle because of the decisions that were made by someone else. they are facing a disaster. so the idea that we are all pointing at one another and say it is your fault, if the state of michigan won't do was write, where else are the kid supposed else are thehere kids supposed to turn? we are the federal government. when we have the power to react, we should do everything we can. michigan., from an independent. caller: good morning. i know you're not my congressman, but at least you are representing the state. i do not agree with you on a couple of points. one, that it is a federal issue or it is a state issue. it is a local issue. the reason is, the people who are running flint spend more money than they were taking in from tax revenue. at the sa

"washington journal" continues. host: doug collins of the judiciary committee in the house. you have a big hearing next week on apple encryption and the fbi. where do you stand on the issue? guest: this is going to become one of the defining issues in the next little bit. we have had a classified hearing already in the judiciary. i believe we could be on a very slippery slope. i think apple is fighting back, and i think they should be fighting back. i believe -- i guess, where does this stop and start? it is not just a one-off. it is not simply saying, can apple give me phone from just this information? it does not really need to be handled in the courts. this needs to be solved on capitol hill. we need to make a determination in congress on what this issue is and how we are looking to best protect the country. i served in iraq and have been overseas. i understand the terrorist threat. but there is very much a concern here that the government is coercing someone to do something come and not to stop something. they a

this is discussion from today's washington journal. a familiar face from washington journal viewers, president of americans for tax reform and joins us now to discuss the 2017 budget released by the white house. we are also talking about the tax plan that candidates are talking about on the campaign trail. it is a $4.1 trillion spending plan. you described it as an explosion of taxes. what is fueling that explosion? guest: it brings taxes up 3.4 troy and dollars over the next decade. spending over $2.5 trillion over the next decade. it is bernie sanders wish list of more money and spending for the government. none of this is going to happen. his budgets have gone to the hill and luckily they have gotten two votes from democrats. it is an exercise in something. i guess he is trying to make a point or make some friends happy. he has a massive tax increase, $.25 on a gallon of gas. it would double the federal gas tax. all of that money goes to not roads. it is not roads, but more like pats and high-speed trains which people decided they d

it's not just making washington look dysfunctional. and actual -- it actually hurts the ability for the federal government to be more effective and efficient with tax dollars. look at the department of defense. if you have a continuing resolution instead of an actual d.o.d. appropriations bill signed into law, then they can actually do planning. you know, companies plan years in advance. a government agency should actually be laying out plans as well about how to best use taxpayer dollars. but if they don't know what their budget's going to look like until literally the day before it's about to take effect, it's real hard for them to do planning and a lot of times what they do is suspend contracts and then they have to start that contract back up again, even though they know that ultimately something's going to get worked out. they can't do long-term planning. and it costs even more money. to do the same thing, so it does lead to a less efficient government, to not have a functioning appropriations process. it's why we want passionatel

good.no who wants to have a bureaucrat in washington taking care and educating your kids. you want local education. i have seen it and i've watched it and it is beautiful. parents and children. the children graduate and they stay in the boards because they love the school. be at a point where we can spend less money and have a far stronger and better country. i look at military spending. build aig -- i will military bigger, better, stronger. i guarantee we can do it for less money. like they are ordering missiles they do not want because of politics, because of special interests. because the company that makes the missiles is a contributor and the other company that makes the missiles are not. we are ordering missiles that the generals do not want because of politics. here is the beauty. they come to me and they say we would like you to use such and such a company because we have helped your friends. i don't care. i have no friends as far as i am concerned. you know what? you are my friends. think self funding is big. i am the only one that is self funding. democrat or rep

i know that there is some tough weather, washington has been hit a lot. i appreciate you bringing elements. and artist in which fellow panelists, gary stern, don cohen, chairman bernanke, and bruce. thank you all for being here. i want to remind everybody that the views and exposing today are my own and i not speaking on behalf of the federal open market committee or the bird of governors which sets regulatory and supervision policy on behalf of the federal reserve system. today, i will offer my assessment of the current status and outlook for ending the problem of too big to fail banks. problem from the perspective of a policymaker who is on the front line, responding to the financial crisis in 2008. when congress moved quickly to pass the dodd frank act, in 2010, i strongly supported the need for financial reform. but, i wanted to see the act implemented, before i drew firm conclusions about whether or not it solved too big to fail. in the last six years, my colleagues across the federal reserve system have worked diligently, under the reform framework

it is budget season in washington. we'll talk with her and figure out what is going on with this federal project. first, our newsmakers program the veteransith affairs committee chair. johnny isakson's. republican from georgia. here is a little bit of what he had to say. this program airs on sunday. >> senator sanders served before me. he proposed some things that were good. we are not as active as we should have been. the arizona issue took place during his watch. we did not respond at that time. it was a response later on. of the nominee donald trump i do not know that he has served in the military. i think he is regurgitating a lot of what he reads in the press. i would never criticize the press while i am doing an interview. a lot of things that are reported that came around before i came along. the v.a. is making substantial changes. they are addressing the concerns that took place in denver and atlanta. one by one, we're correcting those things. when you see the accountability legislation we're doing in the sprin

host: mike covers congress for the washington post. he is also worked at the washington city paper. talking about the senate's role in choosing the next member of the supreme court. next up, and ohio, republican -- from ohio, republican. caller: my two questions are, people who don't know our history are doomed to repeat the same problems. in five words or less, why is the liberty bell called liberty bell? two, and the constitution, what is the only form of government guaranteed and why do you keep calling us a democracy since it is never mentioned? i would like to hang on. host: why don't you reference a specific question to the supreme court? caller: if he doesn't know the basic history of our country, his bias will be and. how he reports what congress can do. that he does not know how our founders out of this country, he does not know as -- how to ask the questions and if he does not know what a 10-year-old would of known 100 years ago, why should i believe anything he says? host: i'm aware of the distinction between direct democracy and republican democracy. i'm interested to he

he went to washington being a supporter of term limits in washington. he became a firm supporter of term limits not only for members of congress but also for justices on the supreme court. it is good to have a healthy turnover and new talent coming forward. part of the solution here lies in us, the voters. there is a tendency for us not to look past pandering. we have candidates at say i'm against the lyrical correctness -- political correctness and think the alternative they want to show people's insult and obscenity's rather than saying politically correction allows even republican -- or compels even republican candidates to say that they want young women to be drafted into the military. we saw that during the debate on saturday. that was nothing more than political correction rather than thoughtful analysis of a change that would be bad for america. we have to be a lot more sophisticated. we can't have a bernie sanders that says things are bad so therefore i will to take from others and give to you. we have to ask ourselves, what caused this. what in

a lot of those fights i've been in in in washington. when we're in the foxhole and we're fighting president obama and his policies and fighting nancy pelosi and harry reid, sometimes we were fighting members of our own party and leadership to do what's right for you. when you're in that foxhole, you look around and see who is in there with you. i can tell you there was one person on the senate side that was in every single fight with us and that was ted cruz. i don't getive my endorsement easy. i endorsed mark from north carolina. i endorsed mark meadows for congress. and i've endorsed ted cruz for president of the united states. so when i was courted by all the candidates in this race, i started checking the boxes. some of the candidates checked a lot of the boxes. they believe in jesus christ as their savior, check. they believe in life and the sanctity of life from the minute of conception forward, check. they believe in the constitution and separation of powers, check. but ted cruz checks everyone of my boxes and then some with a sh

the environmental movement didn't happen in washington. 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. you think about gay rights. if we were sitting here 10 years ago, and somebody said i think in 2015, gay marriage will be , the personstates next to him would have said what are you smoking? which raises another issue. [laughter] but the point is, when people at the grassroots start moving, and when they say this is not right, in this country people should have the right to love anyone they want regardless of their gender -- [applause] tremendous changes took place. ,ou go and talk to young people they shrug their shoulders and say what is the big deal? that is what a revolution is about. [applause] if we were here 40 years ago, somebody jumped up and said i enough,erica is mature it has gone far enough, overcoming racism, in 2008 we are going to elect an african-american as president, there a few people would have believed that can happen. but it did happen. [

washington is never going to have all the answers. for every problem that we face, somewhere, someone in america is solving it. we need you to be part of that exciting journey. we need the community activist who decides to run for school board. the entrepreneur who stays and builds instead of leaving a hometown that has seen better days. the millions of teachers, nurses, police officers, and firefighters who get up every day and do quiet, heroic work to make our country a safer place. it will take each of us working together, growing together, looking out for one another, and lifting each other up. there is a basic truth about america. it is something that bill and i have been the than officio race beneficiaries of, and can only hope to live up to. when each and every american has the chance to live up to your potential, too. when noif tomorrow, child grows up in the shadow of discrimination, or under the specter of deportation. every child in every zip code gets the education that he or she needs or deserves. child canere every find

, washington despised ronald reagan. do you want to know which candidate will take on washington? just ask the simple question, who is washington attacking? revolution came from the american people, and it turned this country around. why am i so optimistic? because the same thing is happening again. all across this country people are waking up. nevada has aou, powerful voice in that process. away from thes nevada caucuses. tomorrow night nevada has a voice. historically not that many people come out. last cycle 32,000 people came to the caucus. everyone of you has a voice where you are speaking for ifdreds, if not house and's, not millions of courageous conservatives across this country when you come out tomorrow night and cast your votes. and so if you agree with me that it is now or never, that the stakes have never been higher, that we are standing at the edge of a cliff staring down, and if we keep going the same direction , we risk doing irreparable damage to the greatest country in the history of the world. and i w

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

clinton: in the campaign, you read a lot about washington and wall street. we also want to get unaccountable money out of politics, which starts with appointing a new supreme justice to the court. [applause] sec. clinton: who will protect the right of every citizen to vote, not every corporation to buy elections. and we also agree that wall street can never be allowed to threaten mainstreet again. no executives should be too powerful for jail. if we listen to the voices of flint, and ferguson, if we open our hearts to the families, if we listened to the openhearted of hard-working people across america, it is clear there is so much more to be done. the truth is, we are not a single issue country. [applause] sec. clinton: we need more than eight plan for a bank, the middle class needs a raise. we need more jobs. we need jobs that can't be outsourced, jobs of dignity and a future. we can do this by unleashing the innovation of our entrepreneurs and small businesses. we can do this with new infrastructure, and clean energy, especially here in nevada. [applause]

[applause] every candidate running for washington says they will stand up to washington. when will you? i campaigned in the state of iowa against the mandate, something everyone says was political suicide. my leading competitors both attacked me for it. the governor of the state said vote for anyone but cruz, and lobbyists spent millions of dollars in attack ads, but i said we should have no mandate, a level playing field, and the people of iowa and the country and children put us above cronyism. to theet back constitution, i will always stand with the american people against the bipartisan reduction of washington.
