i have been to many times, new hampshire. in making the speech, everyone thought i was running for president. as you know, i wasn't running for president. i never said i was running for president. i make a speech on success for a friend of mine around 1988. the buzz was unbelievable, because it happened to be new hampshire. it was sometime prior to primary season. in a way, in you hampshire sort of got me started. i did come up in 1988. i ma i had a speech. it was really a speech on success, much more so than politics. i done know if politics played a role in the speech. it was great. it really did, sort of got me started. i did that speech actually for a friend. i didn't do it because i was running. i wasn't running. >> when are you going to release your -- >> why should people think you are a real republican? >> well, i am a republican. i am a very strong republican. i have been a republican for a long while. i am proud of it. i think i am quite conservative as a republican. if you look at the polls, i just saw two more pol

. >>> a brand new state-of-the-art prison in new hampshire sits empty tonight. and it's not because there are no criminals to lock up behind bars. nbc's kelly o'donnell explains. >> reporter: spring arrives late in new hampshire's north country. but a manmade delay is breaking hearts and wallets in the town of berlin. >> this delay is critical to us. it's going to have an impact on businesses that are struggling to hold on. >> reporter: they're waiting on this. a new federal prison, carved out of a mountaintop. a medium-security facility that will add more than 300 new jobs. construction wrapped up months ago. but money needed to actually open was stripped when congress made cuts to this year's federal budget. new hampshire's senator jeanne shaheen. >> we've got a $276 million prison that's brand new, that's standing empty because congress isn't willing to put in about $28 million to get it started. >> reporter: that means no money to transfer inmates here and hire prison staff. >> i'd like to have a meeting just to regroup. >> reporter: mark belanger heads the

hampshire newspaper mentioning happily, reporting on the good news that our area of new hampshire had been selected as one of 14 finalists for the first in the nation with a high-level nuclear waste dump. this was going to bring jobs. i wasted. i was a mother of three very young children at that point. supporting my family as a writer living in the country. i was also -- my identity was not that of an activist. i felt that i was raising children. i waited for the activists to do something. i was sure that within 24 hours the anti-nuclear people that have remembered would be out in force, and nothing happened the next day and the next day. i called my congressman's office, and they weren't doing anything. i called the governor's office, and somebody was foolish enough to say to me, we have decided. i said, where are the stores in the paper. this man actually said, we have decided -- is statewide policy from the governor's office not to disseminate information on the grounds it would create a statewide panic. [laughter] well, at that point i knew that the activist had to be me. everyone

new hampshire reflects the very best of our nation. as america faces enormous challenges, i am reminded of the words of wisdom from one of new hampshire's revered statesmen, general john stark. after fighting bravely and heroically in the revolutionary war, general stark gave new hampshire its treasured state motto: live free or die. this famous quote perfectly captures the spirit and character of the people of the granite state. fiercely independent and strongly protective of our personal freedoms, we place a high premium on self-reliance, personal initiative, and individual liberty. we believe strongly that government cannot and should not be allowed to get in the way of each of us reaching our full potential. that's what "live free or die" means. yet, as i stand here today, and as i've heard from so many of my fellow granite staters, we are at a time when our government has grown so large and we have become so indebted that the size of our debt threatens the full potential and future of the greatest people and country on earth. admi

i am honored to be here in new hampshire. it is my 15th trip to new hampshire in the past year. i just came from my hometown of pittsburgh where i spoke at the convention. of wanted to speak to the n.r.a. one of the things they are always focused on -- i am a member and i get the magazine. the name of the magazine is a "freedom." it is the core of what motivates me. what would your plans beat? the plan has to be what is the core values that make america different than any country in the history of the world? what made our economy more successful? what made our society more successful? it comes down to the document that is the why for america. the constitution is the how -- how does america operate? it is on the lips of every american, or at least used to be before the education system got to our children. "we hold these truths to be self evident that all men are held -- all men are created equal." our founders understood -- [applause] our founders understood that is a lie. is it an economic understanding of the world? no. it is a more understanding. america is a moral and duke -

the areas in new england as far as vermont, new hampshire, maine, you're still going to get a big storm out of this. but the forecast has changed a little bit. it was a little too warm. we didn't get the snow that was expected from albany through the hudson valley, poconos, connecticut, long island. you're not getting anything at all. this is primarily a northern new england storm out there today. it's still raining in areas like new york city and philadelphia and up here in the hudson valley, but as far as the snow, the only big accumulations will be from worcester, boston, northwards up into vermont, new hampshire and definitely up there in maine. the entire state of maine could pick up heavy snow. that's the white on this map. boston is right on the line. south of boston, you went over to rain. north of boston, you got heavy wet snow coming down. we've gone back and forth from snow to rain to sleet and right now we're back to snow. areas of western mass, already reports of four to six inches at the higher elevations. so the higher elevations are getting the heavy snow and later on to

i want to do really well in new hampshire,o i'm going to spend a lot of te in new hampshire, where you c go from obscurity to prominence overnight. i'm going to go out on a limb and say i will not be out worked when it comes to going to new hampshire and talking to people. >> it is a key to the equation to do well in the early primary states where you can go from obscity to being in a place where the lights don't shine any brighter. i love retail politics. i love the fact that it is a one-on-one discussion and debate. i love the fact that -- what do you think about nit romney for president? i'm having him over for dinner on thursday night, but i need to meet the mall. i like that. i ran to campaigns for governor were i did not mention my opponent. the idea was to present ideas and give people a choice as opposed to the lesser of two evils. when it comes to comparing myself tothers, i'm not the person to talk to. i will let you draw those conclusions. >> [applause] >> bypass the exploratory committee? i'm committed to doing this, so why have the exploratory committee. fund-raising is pa

i will compete in new hampshire because whether i win the primary or not, i would try to win new hampshire in november 2012. any republican candidate needs to do the same thing, because of this state is very important in that regard. if i and that running -- kathy, you will see me back. i am very grateful to you and pj and your family and krl for letting me be here. with that, i will stop and shut up and let you ask questions. thank you. ons. thank y'all. [ applause ] >> we have something in common. you are from the deep south and i am from southern new hampshire, y'all. i will ask a question that will come from the other side. you were quoted as saying some positive things about yazoo city, mississippi, and they tried to turn it into something ugly. how would you handle this? >> frankly, i am not worried about. i was asked about my childhood. my daddy died when i was two years old and i was raised by my mother. i have two older brothers. she never remarried. i was asked what was my child would like. my child was great. a wonderful family, great friends. could both catch and hit. [laughter

there's all kinds of snow from maine, new hampshire, and vermont. not quite as much fell.

over in new hampshire, new hampshire has not received much national attention for their labor struggles, but there too republicans in the legislature have been pushing a union-stripping bill that would force people who have voted to join unions, it would force those people out of those unions and make them at-will employees. ye oldie big government conservatism. here's some footage we got today of people against that union-stripping bill rallying at the new hampshire state capitol after the republican-led house there voted to pass the union-stripping measure. the republican-led senate, interestingly, is not expected to pass the bill on that side of the legislature. even if they did, new hampshire's democratic governor is not expected to sign it. but this issue has lit a fire under people in new hampshire to defend their rights all the same. nothing could unify democrats and centrists more than this, apparently. in michigan, as we reported earlier this week, republicans in the state legislature and republican governor rick snyder have passed a bill that sticks it to the state's unemploye

new hampshire. joining me for more details from the conference is our tease lauren lister now lauren should we be a little surprised her i don't know maybe a little skeptical that suddenly all these financial elites are worried about a dying middle class and an increasing wealth one that maybe some of them helped create. i don't know to divide but i do think it's a very theatrical i do think that what we're seeing is a little bit from that because that because we're used to hearing activists on our shows talk about this people that are suffering as a result of the rising inequality in this country you don't often hear as many mainstream policymakers or economists concerned about that but many people brought is wisconsin and a belief that this might be reaching a tipping point where social instability is coming finally as a result of thirty years of no wage growth well the top one percent have seen their incomes increase pretty astronomically so i do think that you see kind of this newfound. concern

it is a place like and i've been here many times in new hampshire. in making the speech everybody thought i was running for president. but i wasn't, i never said i was, i made a speech on success for a friend of mine. around 1988, the buzz was unbelievable because it happened to be new hampshire, it was prior to primary season. >> justine: we're hoping that he would give address to the copy of the burst of again president barack obama has just released. donald trump had been asking for it. he was one of the biggest doubt castors. the president has released a copy of his birth certificate. he is said to talk to the media as 6:45 a.m. if we could bring that to live we will. >> mark: san francisco getting a new police chief, they expect to make get official this morning. current capt. of bay view station greg suhr will become this city's new top cop. the mayor decided to go server and the supervisor who heads the board's public safety committee told us he believes greg suhr is a good choice. >> he is a cop's cop. he is well-liked in the department, he's

i think new hampshire could be one of a small handfuls of states that decides whether we have a new republican president or whether barack obama gets four more years. whether i win the primary or not i'm going to try to win new hampshire in november 2012. any republican candidate needs to do the same thing. this state is very important in that regard. if i end up running, kathy, you will see me back. i am very grateful to you and your family and to krl for letting mee here. and with that i'm going to stop and shut up and be glad to take questions. thank y'all. [ applause ] >> we have something in common. i'm from southern new hampshire, y'all. i won't even need an interpreter. i'm going to ask a question from the other side. they tried to turn it into something ugly. i want to know how you will handle it when they try to turn it into something ugly again. >> i was asked about my childhood, raised by my brother. she never remarried. i had great friends who could catch and hit. i wouldn't give anything for it. does that mean everything was perfect in the south? of course not. we have made real c

or the world bank and now there's another major financial conference underway and bretton woods new hampshire will tell you who's there and what's being discussed with our chief financial correspondent lauren lister i will introduce you to a man who thinks that obama needs to be impeached over his decision to intervene in libya we invited him on the show to explain for himself why obama needs to step down as the commander in chief and more than one hundred senators and congressmen are asking to d.o.j. for more federal obscenity prosecutions they say that we know the damaging effects of obscene pornography but do we really are going to host a debate on that and it's friday so let's make a toast to all the stories making headlines this week our producer jenny churchill and a realist idealist lab's j. crew will join me at the end of our show but now let's move on to our top story. it's friday it's six pm and as of now congress has not reached a deal on a budget which leaves only six hours until the midnight deadline which makes the likelihood of a government shutdown look very very real and as w

now let's move on to bretton woods new hampshire was the birthplace of the i.m.f. and the world bank the location of the one nine hundred forty four congress conference where world leaders met to restore the global economy in tatters from the great depression from world war two and it's where you could say the financial architecture of the world we live in today was built over the next four days global leaders economists scholars and finance experts off today are once again gathering in britain was all brought together by george soros and the theme is crisis and renewal so joining me to discuss it is our chief correspondent laura lister who is there in new hampshire to tell us what it's all about lauren for starters who is on the list there is a long list of very influential well known highly regarded academic economists of course george soros is here the billionaire investor who started this organization this think tank with fifty million dollars of his own money back in two thousand and nine we are hearing from larry summers who up until recently was the presiden

a good showing in new hampshire. i will go out on a limb and say that i will not be at work when it comes to being in new hampshire and talking to people. [applause] yes, it is. it is key to the equation. it is key to the equation to do well in the early primary states where, again, you can go from obscurity to being in a place where the lights did not shine a brighter. i love retail politics. i love the fact it is really a one on one discussion, debate. i love the fact that in new hampshire -- and i saw all this might all be back -- what do you think about mitt romney for president? i am having him over for dinner sunday night, but i am undecided. i have to meet them all. i like that. what is different? i ran two campaigns for governor where i did not mention my opponent in print, radio, or television. the idea was to present ideas and give people a choice to the lesser of two evils. when it comes to me and comparing myself to others, i am not the person to talk to. i will let you draw those conclusions. bypass the

it is very unfair to new hampshire. it is very unfair to that part of new hampshire. but they spent $276 billion to build a prison and the town is all for it. they have great employment prospects, and the federal government now does not have the money to open the prison. i am going to see some of that, and i know will see different things. one more question? >> [unintelligible] >> i do not know what my campaign in new hampshire will look like. i would just tell it like it is. i know how to make money. i have always known how to make money. this country is

somebody in new hampshire is going to ask me to do it. i had open heart surgery five and half years ago. i do not remember the date, june 21, 2005, right before katrina. i am a diabetic. open-heart surgery is often required. i have five valve replacements, are greet replacements. before i announced my exploratory committee, for the first time i went for a full battery of tests with my doctor. we did a nuclear stress test. i had never had that done before. he said it was perfect. he said it was in perfect running order. he said i did not know about my mind but my body was in good shape. that is what i wanted my doctor to tell me. i was not a teenager when i became a diabetic. i was in my 20s. it was then called juvenile diabetes, anything before 30. they have changed some of the language now. i am an insulin dependent diabetic. i am wearing an insulin pump. it allows me to run for president. i have thought about this for 20 years. i could not run before because i did not have a diabetic pump. governor was ok although i have moments of high

he's very strong in new hampshire. he's got legs and can afford to lose a state or two or three, and keep on going down the road. and i don't see anyone who is that far advanced -- >> you're saying that before he was beaten by huckaby in iowa? >> huckaby weight him in iowa. >> and he did not have the organization and money romney had. but there is so many unknowns. >> lost to huckaby and mccain in new hampshire. >> the whole race was full of surprises. mccain got the nomination, which people did not predict. but the poll on cnn showed huckaby and -- donald trump leading, and what -- >> romney is at 11, huckaby and trump at 19. is romney is the front-runner, he's the weakest republican front-runner we've ever seen, even weaker than john mccain. this health care thing is an albatross. there's no good way to explain it. has all the same aspects every obama care, mandate, subsidies, exchange. he has to work himself up to saying it's an experiment that failed, without being too explicit about it. [everyone talking at once]

i'm proud to say that it is produced in new hampshire. it was invented in new hampshire and the united states military is a major customer for velcro. it's a major customer of the company velcro u.s.a. because velcro is used in soldiers' uniforms and equipment. normally the government is a steady customer of velcro u.s.a., but now they've been waiting for months for the government, for us in congress to pass a full-year funding bill for government. a shutdown will mean increased uncertainty for the company and for the hundreds of employees who work there. we heard from another company in my home state, a small innovative high-tech company that has said even the smallest shutdown is going to have dire effects. they said that they will lose 95% of their revenue if we have a shutdown. now, this is a small business. they've got about 45 employees. but it's a business that has a lot of growth potential. it's exactly the kind of innovative company that will keep america's economy competitive. they were planning to hire 16 people this year so in

abc's linsey davis is in manchester, new hampshire, in the middle of it. >> reporter: good evening, diane. we have about a half a foot of snow on the ground here. it's a really heavy, wet snow, which is great for making snowballs, but not so good for power lines. that's why we have so many crews busy at work, trying to restore power for people like the o'n l o'neils. you've been out of power since this morning? >> we have been out of power since 7:15 this morning -- >> lig >> reporter: lights still not coming out. >> they told us they would be coming back shortly. >> reporter: what have you been doing to stay warm? >> we've had layers of clothing on and we've been holding the dog a whole lot this morning and getting heat from him, so -- >> reporter: that's doing the trick. >> it is. >> reporter: hopefully your power will be on soon. 30,000 other homes in new hampshire, massachusetts area in the same boat, all as a result of this snow. something they certainly weren't expecting in april. diane? >> all right, our thanks to you, linsey davis. >>> and still ahead, to reduce health care costs

today, choppering into new hampshire with a backdrop made to look presidential, trump claimed credit for the birthday certificate's release. >> today, i'm very proud of myself. >> reporter: but said closer inspection was needed. >> we have to see is it real, is it proper, what's on it? but i hope it checks out beautifully. >> when nbc's ron allen tried three times to show the document to trump -- >> why don't you take a look at it? >> reporter: he was ignored. a recent poll showed two thirds of republicans question the president's birth place, and though he's tried to laugh it off at times -- >> i happen to know my approval ratings are still very high in the country of my birth -- >> reporter: the president has grown increasingly tired of the issue. with nbc's brian williams last year. >> i can't spend all my time with my birth certificate plastered on my forehead. >> reporter: today as strump held forth in new hampshire, the split screen gave way to the president who played his trump card. >> we live in a serious time right now, and we do not have time for this kind of silliness. we

nbc's ron annual has more on this from portsmouth, new hampshire. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, ann. it's hard to believe we are here in new hampshire covering politics. the primary is perhaps eight months away, but donald trump coming to town is a big political event. he's been generating so much publicity with his blistering attacks directed at president obama. doubling down on his drumbeat of doubt about the president's birthplace, hawaii, hunts for the birth certificate were all over tv. >> why didn't he do it a long time ago? why didn't he do it a long time? when hillary clinton was asking, when everybody was asking why, didn't he do it? it's shocking. it's shocking. >> reporter: on monday, trump questioned whether president obama deserved to get into two ivy league colleges. >> i heard he was a terrible students. not like okay. i heard he was a bad student. how does a bad student go to columbia and then go to harvard? >> reporter: when trump hits fp new hampshire and stops at gift shop, where they feel a duty to vet candidates, some

donald trump takes another significant step toward running for president heading to new hampshire to meet with voters but this morning, new questions about the donald's interests in politics. we're going to take a look at his voting record. >>> and live from the royal wedding. the big event is just five days away, and we're live in london as the city gets set to host one of the biggest weddings ever. this morning, the royal family's final trip to church before the big event. join us as we begin our coverage live from the royal wedding. >>> hey, everybody. good morning and happy easter. my co-anchor and weekend compadre bianna is over in london this morning ahead of the big day. hey, bianna. >> hey, dan. i wish you were here. it is so beautiful and sunny in london. what a scene we have here. easter sunday is gorgeous in the college gardens here, offering a beautiful view of parliament and big ben behind me, dan. as you can see, much of the royal family is going to church today. now, this is significant because it's the last time they'll be inside a church before the wedding at westmin
