i start looking through these things, looks like michelle obama's diary, barack obama's diary, joe biden's diary. it can't be. i'm looking at the last 18 months, health care reform, stimulus bill, auto bailout, trips to europe and so forth. and the diaries, lo and behold, match up to the historical narrative. i have tried to verify these with valerie jarrett, the president's senior advisor. i approached valerie jarrett, she claimed she had no knowledge of these diaries, after reading them myself, i understand why no one wanted to talk about them. that's all i can say. >> larry: why did you choose someone that republicans are against, publishing it? many are against publish these afghanistan reports? yet you broke the code and published a private document? >> well, larry, here is what i think. the obamas are so historic and so up on a pedestal and they are so different from everyone who came before it was probably good to -- remember in the wizard of oz, when you pull the curtain back on the wizard and a little guy pulling a bunch of levers, i wanted to do that with the obamas. that's what

even though he one in 2008, has obama matured? will he seem more seasoned by 2012. >> ties that bind. 50 years ago, the pope had some americans feared that the church would rule the president. some critics say the first african-american president favors blacks. in 1960, richard nixon's center right campaign opened the door to barry goldwater and the extremists. will we witness a similar republican split heading toward 2012. >> hi, i am chris matthews. we have dan rather, gloria borger, michele norris and richard sting el. first up, 50 years this summer, the historic battle between john f. kennedy and richard nixon. the highest turn out in history. enormous rallies. that campaign was the last to rock for the old application of parades and circus conventions and the beginning of modern media politics. it has parallels for barack obama today, some big ones. kennedy was the first catholic, just as obama is the first black. kennedy had nervous democrats on his right. southerners worried he might be too liberal. and the issue of experie

. >> what do you think about the rap against obama? on the one hand, he clarifies the legality of it. he says it's within. not only within, it is supported by the constitution. to practice your faith wherever you want. that doesn't mean on the judgment level, i would have chosen to put the mosque there. what is wrong with tha >> i was delighted to hear the president say private property for the first time. first time i have ever heard him defend something being done because it was private property. >> have you noted in any of your publications? did you encourage them to use it more? >> i don't believe i have done that. i did do that. i did mention that for mayor bloomberg who doesn't think you have a right to smoke on your private property, but does think you have a right to build a mosque. >> you think it's a bad rap on obama? it's untrue? the rap on obama. >> i think the rap is that he made an eloquent speech and backtracked the next day. >> he didn't backtrack. he clarified. it's not my wisdom that i were to put it there. >> the pre

chris: it about the president, barack obama hussein obama. we elected him we must not be anti-islamic. >> he had a high approval rating, that dwindled. they were just as white, but the approval declined. >> there has always been a segment of the american population that felt barack obama has felt that he's like them. they feel, they're not represented by the person that they have in office. chris: part of the ignition of the anger, the bern? >> he's there, he's something that could be the spark and flame. i think -- chris: the war with islam has made it some people -- made it okay for some people to slam is lambs. -- islam. during world war ii, the japanese. and in 1992, a movie about american p.o.w.'s on trial in japan. you'll catch the drift. >> [uninlligible] >> what do you think of general mcarthur now. >> don't be too disappointed, you'll meet him again. >> you approve of his actions? >> wholeheartedly. it was realistic. >> i think s tooo. it is a wise man that knows where courage ends and stupidity begins. chris: some people don't think

obama carried in 2008 overwelmingly rejected the obama mandate on all residents of the u.s. to purchase health insurance or pay a u.s. government fine. 71% of missouriens voted against this washington law recently. 26 are contesting the constitutionality of the white house cohearsing the purchase of health insurance. in virginia, this month a federal judge refused the obama administration's motion to toss out a suit brought by virginia's attorney general that says in effect that obama care is unconstitutional. >> virginia's position is that ordering the purchase of health insurance is not regulating economic activity. if this is activity that can be regulated under the commerce clause, then the federal government can reach anything. this is where you get to the massive expansion of federal power. >> also on this legal action, eric holder attorney general represents the obama government. he filed a motion for dismissal of this suit brought by the virginia attorney general. the judge said no to obama, yes to kutchinel. you may proceed with lawsuit ag the basis of nonconstituti

is this about obama? if all this noise is about the economy and the deficit, why so much hea onlyhe mosque? if it is a partisan divide, why do they bring it back to race? and finally, the call of the wild, could the g.o.p. win too many election this is fall and land too many from the far right in congress? could they bring themselves down and reelect obama, just by flying wild with zany candidates? i'm chris matthews. welcome to the show. with us joe klein and katty kay and kelly o'donnell. and reihan salam. quho is driving the -- who is driving the division in the country. what is the motive on the march on washington? what is the up roar about the mosque near ground zero? the critics are unaccountably worked up. >> the people that want to build this mosque. they're maybing a case about supremacy, the nazis don't have a right to put up a sign in the holocaust museum. we wouldn't have japanese putting up a site next to pearl harbour. chris: wh wins from a talk like this? >> this is about restoring honor i

administration and the stance that obama has taken on israel for example when abbas visited and obama pledged money and talk with them and many members of congress voice outrage over that and the when the obama administration spoke up about the west bank settlements and members of congress that oh no don't do that so there are plenty of examples where the obama administration and congress are taking different points of view on israel except obama has moved towards a congressional view on each one of those issues sure there are differences put congress is always more pro israeli than anybody goes and the president has shown in him so willing to sort of bow and kowtow to that and really quickly we don't have a lot of time but i do want to touch upon this point what do you think the mainstream media is missing here with the threat of a nuclear iran because of something that you point out and your letter and i don't want to find out why well you know over a year from the mainstream media what the judgment of sixteen intelligence agencies was in november two thousand and seven and so i'm g

i'm barack obama. he united the party around his personal story and, of course, around the democratic party's disdain for president bush and that was enough. he never defined himself in a philosophical or ideological way. that was great in the campaign. i think it doesn't work as effect ily in governance. i'm struck. every decision he makes if the left is unhappy they assume he's selling out, he made an expedient decision. if he makes a decision that makes the liberal wing of the democratic party happy the moderates say he must be in the pocket of labor or some other liberal constituency. his own party seems to assume the worst of his motives and i think that... he's allowed his decisions to be made... to be viewed through the prizm of mechanics and washington maneuvering as opposed to, hey, here's what i really believe. here's where i'm trying to take the country, this is my world view and follow me as i try to lead the country toward that. >> rose: we move from politics to literature and a conversati

and what's the political impact for president obama? >> there is obviously a lot of factors at work here in this situation. you know, a lot of this is ignorance and unfamiliarity. there are 2.5 million muslims in america, less than 1% of the population. when we polled, we found roughly a third of the country said they know a muslim. i think it's far less than that. i think this is still a culture of unfamiliarity and ignorance. in addition to that, we have been at war for a decade in southwest asian have an economy that is in deep trouble and a measure of hatred as well. and it's getting worse. when i looked at the number of people who thought obama was a muslim and looked at how they thought about politics, eight or nine to one of disapproval of president obama. there are some feelings and quite intense. if we had polled, do you think he is a vampire, some percentage would have said that. gwen: thank you everyone. the conversation will continue online. catch up with our web cast at pbs.org. if there is more you want to know, drop us a

president barack obama has introduced a number of and so. and to such as the home affordable modification program to assist minority communities as a district so even those initiatives fall sort of saving the country's most vulnerable communities from going homeless according to. an online tracking poll since president obama took office foreclosures and delinquency rates in the washington d.c. area have risen from four point seven percent to eight percent examples of economic disparities display real life conditions here in the nation's capital the rate of urban gentrification in this city where u.s. president barack obama now calls home has become so severe that lifelong residents of the district have taken over this patch of land that has been designated by the days to counsel for corporate developers what we're trying to do is get the administration to understand that. this is we're not the steps and mission is to stabilize neighborhoods and we're going to do whatever it takes to get it done but even as african-americans demand obama take

in some ways it's clinton versus obama, the rematch. only this time obama is the establishment and bill clinton is backing the insurgent. >> hi, this is bill clinton. i'm supporting andrew romanoff for the u.s. senate. >> reporter: a loss for bennet would be an embarrassment for obama. in georgia today the gubernatorial primaries are testing the strength of republicans at the national level. newt gingrich and mike huckabee have been campaigning for nathan deal while sarah palin is throwing her support to karen handel. >> are you ready to elect a pro-life, pro-second amendment, commonsense, constitutional conservative who will fight like a mama grizzly for you? >> reporter: if her candidate wins, she's guaranteed to be seen as the mama grizzly bear of her party headed into the

she's watched barack obama. i think in her mind she's saying he's done some good things but there are things i would have done much, much better. chris: does she say that? >> she thinks that. and if it's possible to work out a deal to gate on -- get on the ticket absolutely, she would take it in a second. chris: how do you explain no sign of political life or interest, yet you say she has political ambition. >> i think she's done a great job and served the administration well. chris: but what about political interest? >> well, not to be machiavelliian about it but that actually does serve her interests. this is obviously a summertime distraction. i don't believe that right now there is active consideration in the white house but i do think there is a case for it and the case goes what does barack obama need to do to win in 2012? right now with a, an approval rating among white voters in the mid-30's -- chris: well -- >> having bill clinton or hillary clinton on the ticket would be a huge advantage with the voter

but it is fair to say, when president obama said muslims have a right to build a mosque near ground zero where the twin towers fell, it pleased many on the liberal left; and it is also fair to say that it just delighted many on the republican right, because they feel it is an issue they can use against him, not only in the coming elections but all the way into 2012. so i want to start there, and i'm going to poll the delegation this morning. governor rendell, did the president say the right thing, and was it good politics? >> well, i don't know if it's good or bad politics, but i can't imagine that any american, given the challenges facing this country, going to vote based on what he said about the mosque. the mosque is an unfortunate situation, but we do have a right to practice our religion freely wherever we choose. rights are not subject to the popular vote. >> ed gillespie? >> it was a revealing comment by the president. he said that the 70% of americans who are opposed to this controversial imam building this controversial mosque at ground zero are denying the freedom of muslims in

and that obama luck may hold when he runs again in 2012. modren persidents have one strike in terms unless they face a commanding opponent. john, he has been lucky? >> he has been lucky, but one exception, hillary clinton, who is a rival when he ran for the nomination. right now, it's fascinating. you think of obama's approval rating has fallen and yet over the course of the first 18 months, unlike in past presidential elections, you don't see republicans out there. there have been two, mitt romney and pawlenty. and the white house have said, couldn't we be lucky enough to end up with another opponent who is just as lame as the ones we faced in the past. chris: he may get a little bit of a break. i'm looking at some of these races. nevada, he thought he may have had a safe seat. harry reid facing sharro ankle. so he may not lose the senate. >> the appetite for republicans and the environment is good for republicans out there. got to get 10 seats to take back the senate, but haven't field the the best seats. nevada, that has been a disaster

en el primer aÑo fiscal del presidente barack obama en la presidencia fueron deportados mÁs de 393.000 personas, esta cifra acaba de ser publicada dÍas un nuevo rÉcord. pero ha desaparecido la oportunidad de una reforma migratoria para legalizar a 11 millones de indocumentados este mismo aÑo ¿quiÉn tiene la culpa? para hablar de esto nos acompaÑa el congresista demÓcrata luis gutiÉrrez, desde puerto rico, el republicano mario dÍaz aquí. gracias por estar con nosotros. la pregunta es ¿quiÉn tiene la culpa de que este aÑo no haya reforma migratoria? >> en tu programa, cuando le preguntaste especÍficamente al seÑor obama Él te dijo a ti que iba a presentar una legislaciÓn sobre la reforma migratoria, eso te lo dijo a tu cara, en tu programa, y yo he escuchado varias veces repetir eso. la verdad que no ha cumplido con su promesa, estamos esperando. hay un grupo de nosotros, aquÍ esta el congresista gutiÉrrez que su lÍder en los temas de inmigraciÓn, su servidor y muchos otros estamos listos para presentar legislaciÓn, lo que hace falta es liderazgo de la casa blanca y

president obama was a part of that. and this is one side of the argument that can be made against the comments that he wants americans to believe that he can get us out of this, the problem we're in economically. we're not out of the problem. we have a jobless recovery. that is no recovery in the mind of most americans. >> chris: let's talk about some of the big issues that are going to come up in the mid-terms between now and november. a federal judge has now blocked the key provisions of the arizona immigration law. your response? >> well, this is a temporary suspension of some of the key elements in the law that jan brewer pushed hard for arizonans and for the rest of the country to have the result of us being more secure. it's unfortunate that the judge chose those steps, but it's temporary. jan brewer, bless her heart, she is going to do all she can to continue down the litigation path to allow secure borders, because she's -- jan brewer has the cojones that our president does not have to look out for all americans

president obama is going to host at least the initial sessions. they have a timeline of just one year to get things done. what realistically can we expect? >> well, they shouldn't expect to get everything done in a year. the timeline is artificial, and the president should let prime minister benjamin netanyahu and prime minister abbas negotiate. netanyahu wants to meet every two weeks. that's good. let them meet and talk and see what they can work out. don't expose unrealistic expectations that it will blow up and lead to things wor worse. >> chris: juan? >> the question is about settlements. what you hear from abbas is they go back to the settlements, that he cuts off the talk. last time the talks were cut off because israel launched offensive in gaza. now we have a break. the question is can netanyahu hold together as his forces together in israeli politics to say you know what? we're best served by some sort of peace, despite the pressure -- and i think there are tremendous pressures on israel. there has to be a sense that we are about peace fi

obama returns. they'll spend the weekend in panama city, florida, katie. >> couric: sharyl attkisson, thank you, sharyl. and coming up next here on >> couric: and coming up next here on the cbs evening news, the dilemma for democratic candidates-- they may not want the president to campaign for them, but they do need him to raise money. and later, bob schieffer has reported on the nation's political battle-- now he's speaking about his own personal fight against cancer. >> couric: president obama is making a campaign blitz from one end of the country to the other in his head dual role as head fund raiser and commander in chief. the candidates want the campaign money but perhaps not a photo with the president, not right now, anyway. >> reporter: well, katie, the president loves escaping this place and getting out on the campaign trail, but this year he has a problem-- a lots of democrats don't want him anywhere near his district >> we are going to keep on moving forward for years and decades to come.

obama said he was right i calling us back. there is a sense now that we are heading into thelma and louise territory. >> tim geithner says we are on the road to recovery. no, we aren't. why are people who know better? paul krugman says it is about he evading responsibility. >>this is not behner's solution, paul krugman says we did not spend enough money. >> it was a $1 trillion stimulus and he wants another $1 trillion. >> they cannot be laid responsibility. that is just ridiculous. whatever happens will happen on their watch and they will be tagged with it. what is interesting is when you look at the clip you set up between behner and biting, that is the message for the fall. this will be a class war for election. it will look backward and forward because both sides want to make that argument. >> you are absolutely right. john behner has introduced a campaign strategy which is vaguenessd. that will be the agenda and the platform. he is asking to fire people. the problem for the democrats is this -- the energizer bunny for the

president obama has said over and over again he is a christian. he receives daily devotions on his blackberry. spoke about his faitat the nationalprayer breakfast and national day of prayer and hosted the white house easter prayer breakfast, talked about his view of jesus, death, and resurrection. >> we believe it can be delivered by faith in jesus christ. >> it faces back to his campaigntrail and rumors he was a muslim. they asked him about the rumors in 2008. >> the people understand, i have not and never have been of the musl faith. >> why is the perception problem growing more than 2 years later? the obama white house is intentional and direct in attet to improve muslim around the world from his speech in 2009. >> holy koran tells us be conscious of god and speak always the tth. >> the manhattan mosque. >> i believe the muslims have the right to practice their religion as everyone else in this country. [applause]. that includethe right to build a place of worship in a community center on private propty in lower manhattan. >> this poll was take

i think obama is trying to do that. >> rose: and we continue with the author of the climate war, eric pooley, the deputy editor of bloomberg businessweek. >> a little over a year ago we had a big victory and it passed with a l ofelp from th prident, but the reaction against that bill's passage was so intense and the senate was scared to act, there were a lot of senators that thought if i come out for this bill, you know, i am going to run into a buzz saw when i run for re-election because of all of the misinformation and all of the lies and the people who didn't step up, the guy who could have made the difference was barack obama, now he could have said look we can't do an economy wide cap, we have got to beat a tactical retreat let's just do the power sector let's just do the utilities and he could have gotten that done. >> rose: and gina kolata of the new york times is here to help us understand some new developments in alzheimer's. >> nobody has ever survived alzheimer's. they have been cured of cancer, heart disease

>> he is the anti-obama. he is a rumpled, have become a lobbyist, a good o'l' boy, does not pretend to be so liberal, very much a creature of washington and mississippi -- does not pretend to be cer ebral, very much a creature of washington and mississippi. he is allowed to raise money from corporations, which candidates cannot do. he has raised $1 million from the fair and balanced source, news corp. of rupert murdoch and fox news, which is a little bit of a departure. >> the other reason he is so powerful is the republican national committee under michael steele is so weak. he is the shadow that has overcome the being that cast the shadow. everybody is giving money to him and not the rnc because he knows how to better do it than michael steele. >> a lobbyist with seem like an unlikely choice, but if he is the guy who could pull off the deal that everybody knows we have to make but nobody wants to admit to, which is that the only way out of this mess is to raise taxes and cut spending, a one- for-one trade,

she also found out that she is 18th cousin to president obama. >> i have written a letter to obama but i just have gotten standard reply. >> i hope to meet the president and explain it to him. >> she is now trying to raise money to get to washington, dc, so she can meet her cousin. by the way, the only president not related to all the rest, martin van burran. >>> a magnitude 3.6 earthquake rattled solinas valley. 145 miles south of san francisco. no report of injury or damage. >>> meteorologist lawrence karnow. you're talking fog. does that mean more cool weather ahead? >> yes, unfortunately. thick fog is now making its way into the bay area. very dense as you're looking over the city of san francisco. yes, camera having a hard time trying to focus. just so much focus around the bay area right now. that's true food. drizzle will actually throw up on the shore. hugging the coastline more extensive than last night. mountain gaps in the north bay. it will take some time to clear things out. temperatures going to be cool, of course, out toward the coastline. that's not a surprise. i think

obama some seed for the white house garden. after lunch, the obama party ruined -- rerned to the u.s. and president obama enjed his dream birthday weekend. he played basketball with nba all-stars including lebron mes and others. they entertained troops. i guess we don't get to actually see them playing basketball, just arriving there to do so. >> alan: we have video of that. we'll show that to you tonight. close call at an airport in alaska. an eag got sucked into the engine o an alaska airlines jet as the aircraft was taking off. causing the flying to be aborted. none was hurt. in vermont, a culp crash-landed their smalllane the pilot says he lost power just after takeoff. he tried to glide the plane in for a landing but the landing gary coapsed and the plane flipped on its roof. the couple walked away unhurt. >> carolyn: no rulinwhether a fedel judge will lift a stay and allow same-sex couples to marry. >> alan: we may finally get some warmer weather ts week. leigh glaser coming up. >> mike: a bit of nfl rookie zing that take

and i think that, look, i think obama clearly tried that with health care. they courted, you know, chuck grassley o limb mea snowe for a long, long time. they mr. perfectly prepared to incorporate their ideas. they held the house back from moving forward in order to try to get something going. but the republican leadership in the senate really, i think, said our political success is based on obama's fileure-- failure. and we're just going to shut that down. and he took, you know, he could have walked away. but instead i think he said well, if that's the way it's going to be. we need to get this done. we're going to get it done with democratic votes. >> rose: did he try to do too much? >> no, i-- you know, i think that if you look at the things that he worked on that he did accomplish, they were fundamentally necessary to build the long-term success in the future economy that was going to be won that-- one that was going to, again, have a sound financial system that could lead to investment and innovation in the private sector. and you know, so i admire the f

now, if you click on "obama in video," you get what i like to call "obama on demand," all obama, all the time. that is a very quick look at politico. you don't have to be one to enjoy what they do. frank? >> jim, obama on demand? >> you need it, we're gonna give it. is the demandor it? >> you were talking earlier about, like, "politico obsesses with politics or conflict." we cover washington, and i think one of the great things about washington is there's a substantive side, there's a political side, there's a gossipy side, and i think anybody who's in washington and interested in washington is interested in all of that. i don't think anyone should be ashamed. and the idea that all of a sudden the internet started this fire and now suddenly people are interested in conflict and gossip--like, i think i have news for people. i think people were always interested in conflict and gossip. the difference is, is now you can actually measure which stories people are going to. before, maybe everybody thought where everyone's reading those very substantive stories on a2, a3, it might turn out

the first time most of us became familiar with barack obama was 2004 in boston. he gives that keynote speech, and the biggest applause line was, it is not alack american and a white america and a latino america -- it is the united states of america. that is the same year fed research came out from mit and the university of chicago which found out job applicants with white names for 50% more likely to be called back. i am sure you read the study. -- i am sure he read the study, yet he still maintain this notion that we had in fact achieve that. he knows better, and i think over time the more you say that, the more you'll allow white americans who have already been senile and some black people -- already in the nile, you allow them to do that, and i think that is dangerous -- already in denial, you allow them to do that, and i think that is dangerous. tavis: how you convince white americans to address these issues when they feel they did their part by pulling the lever. i did my part. >> some of my best friends are black. really it is practical interest. look at th

puede hacer algo obama con respecto a la reforma migratoria? >> habiÉndose millones de indocumentados los estados estÁn tratando de resolver la cuestiÓn por su cuenta. >> no les importÓ lo que dijo la jueza. >> no, va a ser exitoso, se van a enfrentar al departamento de justicia que estÁ tratando de detener este movimiento. ya lo hizo en arizona y probablemente lo vuelva a hacer en otros estados. >> esto se extenderÁ hasta que haya reformamigratoria? >> washington y virginia estÁn viviendo una situaciÓn muy similar, ningÚn estado va a aprender del otro y cada polÍtica federal tiene que empezar por obama. sÓlo falta voluntad polÍtica. >> y alejandro, que van a hacer los hispanos en noviembre? los republicanos estÁn con las medidas antiinmigrantes... te quedas en casa? >> de ninguna manera. el hispano realizarÁ manifestaciones en contra de estas medidas. creo que estÁn viendo que obama estÁ tomando medidas que van encaminadas a una posible reforma migratoria. por un lado es el presidente que mÁs deporta gente pero no lo va a pode

i think president obama loses this one. chris: kim. i think what we're going to see is delay, delay, delay. wait for theem novber elections. wait for the fallout. see how much political capital the democrats have left. chris: perhaps a lame duck. helene. >> i think it's going to be really, really tough. i think the white house could very easily lose this one. chris: maybe they want to lose. >> if pime a democrat, and the republicans delay, delay, delay, the tax cuts go away completely, i can campaign and say you know what? i voted -- i wanted to give you my middle class vote as a tax cut. i wanted to raise it on the people making over $25.0000, that is a good argument for democrats to make. and to say to republicans, you know what? they got rid of your tax cut. chris: maybe the strategic defeat he doesn't mind losing. thanks for a great roundtable. dan, kimberly dozier, helene cooper and rick stengel of

but barack obama was elected. would you rather have the government that he presides over at the moment holding the banks accountable? would you rather have them holding the corporations in check or have them writing their own laws to their benefit? and i think that's the question that we have to ask ourselves as americans right now as we see unemployment soaring. host: who do you read on the right? host: who do i read on the right? i like ed harthy. i read res state. i read "the examiner." i read tim carney. i think he's good. i think there is a lot of debate about right and left online. the sharp points of the spears but that's kind of the fun of it. host: how many readers do you have at firedoglake? guest: about 100,000. host: new hampshire. good morning. caller: good morning. everyone i know that voted for president obama is still very supportive of him. i think one of the things that he did say when he was campaigning was that he wanted to work with the other five and so that he has -- has had to compromise in
