that's why mrs. clinton and john kerry are now running around all over my case. after i made my case i got all kinds of letters calling me names because i didn't condemn mrs. clinton over the benghazi attack. let me make this clear to everybody, hating someone like hillary clinton, like president bush, the younger, like obama gets you nowhere. if you want your policies to be enacted, you have to convince nonideological folks to see it your way. and that's what we try to do here. we try to be fair. and that's the memo. now, for the top story. reaction, joining us from washington. carl cameron and james rosen. so, rosen, you cover the state department, all right? am i wrong about my assessment of hillary clinton as far as the actual attack was concerned? >> yes, bill, you are wrong in your disregard for the evidence and the way you are framing the questions. i will tell that you few things bring me the central pleasure that is to be attained by demonstrating as much on your own show. in your talking points on machined, bill, you effectively argued hillary clinton's

mrs. clinton has to feel responsible. in this book she's claiming responsibility, but what is she claiming responsibility for? ramping down the security? is she claiming responsibility for sending ambassador stevens there in the first place? i don't know what she's claiming responsibility for. bottom line, i don't think she's taking responsibility at all. >> she's still trying to say that this may have been about a video. i mean, she's still now saying that even though we know that's not what it was about and in fact, now we've learned that it was administration, it was the white house that pressed to have that narrative put out there to the american public so that we would believe this is about a video and not a failure of policy because we saw that in the ben roads e-mail. when tommy voter, a national security spokesperson was asked about it, whether he was the guy, he was the white house guy at the time was the one who changed those talking points, that the white house had previously said he didn't have his hands on at

that's why mrs. clinton and john kerry are now running around all over my case. after i made my case i got all kinds of letters calling me names because i didn't condemn mrs. clinton over the benghazi attack. let me make this clear to everybody, hating someone like hillary clinton, like president bush, the younger, like obama gets you nowhere. if you want your policies to be enacted, you have to convince nonideological folks to see it your way. and that's what we try to do here. we try to be fair. and that's the memo. now, for the top story. reaction, joining us from washington. carl cameron and james rosen. so, rosen, you cover the state department, all right? am i wrong about my assessment of hillary clinton as far as the actual attack was concerned? >> yes, bill, you are wrong in your disregard for the evidence and the way you are framing the questions. i will tell that you few things bring me the central pleasure that is to be attained by demonstrating as much on your own show. in your talking points on machined, bill, you effectively argued hillary clinton's

in reality, mrs. clinton spent 3 days, not 30, in the hospital. her spokesman hit back, accusing rove of flatout lying. then, it was bill clinton's turn. >> first, they say she faked her concussion. and now, they say she's auditioning for a part on "the walking dead." >> reporter: but rove wasn't backing down. >> she had a serious health episode. this will be an issue in the 2016 race, whether she likes it or not. >> reporter: this much is not in dispute. december 2012, mrs. clinton was ill with a virus, fell and suffered a concussion and a blood clot. she stayed out of public view for nearly a month. her spokesperson, downplaying her condition. >> she is still under the weather. >> reporter: this week, bill clinton acknowledged it took her six months to fully recover. clinton appears to be in good health now. but rove made it clear that the health and age of mrs. clinton, now 66, will not be off-limits. >> republicans are sending a message, in a sense, to hillary clinton, that it's not going to be easy. it's not going to be a free ride. >> report

mrs. clinton has to be responsible. in this book she is claiming responsibility but what is she claiming responsibility for? sending ambassador stevens there in the first place? bottom line, i don't think she's taking responsibility at all. >> she's trying to say this may have been about a video. she's still now saying that. we know that is not what it's about. now, we've learned it was the administration, it was the white house that prepped to have that narrative put out there so we'd all believe this is about a video, not a failure of policy, because we saw that in the e mail circulated prior to susan rice going on those talk shows. when the national security spokesman was asked about it by our own bret baier, whether he is the guy, the white house guy that changed those talking points. white house said he doesn't have his hands on it at all. >> did you change taattacks to talking points in demonstrations? >> maybe i don't remember. >> you don't remember? >> dude, this was two years ago. >> dude, it's the thing everyb

first of all, mrs. clinton was in the hospital for three days, not 30. no question it was a serious illness. but somehow i don't think karl rove is all that worried about her health. >> how did this comment come up suggesting that hillary clinton may suffer from brain damage? where did that come from? >> no, no, no, no. wait, a minute. no, no. i didn't say she had brain damage. she had a serious health episode. >> oh, no. rove would never say she had brain damage. but he's doing his best to raise all kinds of doubts over whether she's fit to run. >> look, she's be 69 by the time the 2016 election. she will be 77 if she serves two terms. and this ends up being an issue. we don't know what the doctor said about, you know what does she have to be concerned about. we don't know -- i mean, she's hidden a lot, whatever it is, a combination of virus, dehydration, concussion and so forth. they're not particularly forthcomi forthcoming. >> a spokesman for mrs. clinton says, quote, please assure dr. rove she's 100%. karl rove has deceived the country for years. bu

clinton. >> mrs. clinton. >> mrs. clinton. >> mrs. clinton. >> mrs. clinton. >> clinton. >> clinton. >> clinton. >> clinton. >> apaplectic for mrs. clinton. >> we invited harley brown on this show after his performance in a republican primary debate had gone viral last week. well, we were flattered to find out that jimmy fallon caught our interview here on "hardball" and liked it so much he included some of it on the "tonight show" last night. >> have you heard about this guy harley brown? good. well, he's running for governor of idaho. a lot of people are saying he's like the american version of rob ford. anyway, he appeared on chris matthews show this weekend. anyways, take a look at this. >> joining us right now for his national television debut it's the man himself, harley brown. >> send the biggest bull you got. swag, a scientific guest, ramalanga ding dong. >> what government programs are you going to get rid of? >> the commies. >> find a man who says what everyone is thinking after five margari margaritas. >> up next, today was

food fight over hillary clinton in one corner quarrel rove who says the concussion mrs. clinton sustained as secretary of state could be a presidential campaign issue. in the other corner, an outraged juan williams. >> the g.o.p. at this moment is apoplectic over hillary clinton. hillary clinton is to blame for between gaze. hillary clinton is to blame for nigeria. hillary clinton is to blame for monica lewenski. >> glad you admit it. >> hillary clinton was a terrible secretary of state. >> i'm glad you admit it. >> you are going crazy. this is not only you are beating her you are beating her about the head and generating sympathy for her. >> be careful about your aanalogies. first of all, let's be clear, she is going to have to cough up these medical records and describe this. this was a serious. look, the center for disease control says a concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury. >> joining us now from washington mary katharine ham and juan williams. are your arms tired from carrying all that water for mrs. clinton. >> i love your introduction thank you william.

. >> reporter: republicans are also taking fresh aim at mrs. clinton's age, and health, from a concussion she suffered in december 2012. >> she is going to have to cough up these medical records. she'll be 69 at the time of the 2016 elections. >> reporter: but 69 is the same age as ronald reagan when he took office. and four years later, the famous line -- >> i am not going to exploit, for political purposes, my opponent's youth and inexperience. [ laughter ] >> reporter: of course, we still don't know of mrs. clinton's intentions. >> in the question i want to ask is, are you going to run, but -- >> well, i am running -- around the park. >> reporter: we'll see more of mrs. clinton when her book is released next month. but that's not all. republicans tell us tonight she'll be called to testify on capitol hill at the benghazi hearings this summer. david? >> jeff zeleny at the white house tonight. thank you. >>> we're going to turn now to a different kind of political fight. the safety of your hometown police officer could be at stake here. tonigh

mrs. clinton may have a serious brain injury. >> now they say she has brain damage. if she does, then i must be in tough shape. because she's still quicker than i am. >> reporter: he has accused mrs. clinton of hiding the extent of her health trouble. >> i didn't say she had brain damage. she had a serious health episode. this will be an issue in the 2014 race whether she likes it or not. >> reporter: this much is not in dispute. mrs. clinton was not seen in public for nearly a month as secretary of state beginning in december of 2012 when she suffered from a virus, a concussion caused by a fall and a blood clot. at the time the clinton team downplayed her condition. >> she is still under the weather. she does not have a public schedule today. >> reporter: they did not reveal she suffered from a concussion until days after. when she returned to work she had special glasses. to deal with double vision. she acknowledged she had not fully recovered yet. >> i still have lingering effects. the

now i'm not saying mrs. clinton's in a long-term committed loving relationship with a mature and handsome woman nameddine. i'm just saying it's out there and if she denies it, how diane gonna feel? >> if she goes into the fray, the gloves are off and the bell is ringing. >> i think what karl rove did in that little comment is he gave a real signal to the clintons that we're going to play, gloves will be off, don't think we'll give special treatment to mrs. clinton because she's a woman. >> stephen: huh-uh! ding ding! gloves are coming off! this is hand to hand combat and the g.o.p. will not be the jay-z to hillary's solange! (cheers and applause) for one thing, republicans would never get into an elevator with that many black people! (laughter) for another, just because hillary's a woman doesn't mean they're going to pull any political punches -- or punches, period -- because punching women is now okay, right tv people? >> if a woman hits you, to me, you have the right to hit her back. >> my wife is american

and the answer to that is mrs. clinton. folks. nobody knew at the time that it was part of the strategy to create the video as the blame for everything that would happen in the middle east on that day and night. it was terrorist activity and all that. and even so, after learning that they still sent susan rice out on the five sunday shows to lie and still focus on the video. >> that might be okay if it was confined to right-wing radio. but republican senators have also decided they want their own select committee devoted completely to benghazi and the conservative credibility that would come with a high-profile witch hunt on president obama and hillary clinton. in an extraordinarily weird press conference last thursday, one you really have to see to believe, south carolina senator lindsey graham, who is facing, we should mention, a primary battle on june 10th, said he's going to demand answers from susan rice about? about hillary clinton's health. >> if you believe susan rice, it was a request of secretary clinton to appear on tv.

mrs. clinton hasn't had anything to say about it. she will leave the talking to her husband. as abc's jonathan karl reports. >> reporter: hillary clinton was all smiles, totally ignoring her political opponents and leaving it to her husband to take on republican strategist karl rove who had suggested that mrs. clinton may have a serious brain injury. >> now they say she's really got brain damage. if she does, i must be in really tough shape because she's still quicker than i am. >> reporter: rove accused mrs. clinton of hiding the extent of her health troubles. >> i didn't say she had brain damage, she had a serious health episode. this will be an issue in the 2016 race of whether she likes it or not. >> reporter: this much is not in dispute, mrs. clinton was not seen in public for nearly a month as secretary of state beginning in december of 2012 when she suffered from a virus, a concussion caused by a fall and a blood clot. at the time the clinton team downplayed her condition. >> she is still under the weather. she does not have a public schedule today. >> reporter: they d

. >> reporter: we will see more on mrs. clinton when her book is released next month but that's not all. republicans say she will be called to testify on capitol hill at the benghazi hearings this summer. jeff zeleny, abc news, the white house. >>> thousand of people have been forced from their homes in the balkans by the worst flooding there in 120 years. in one town, boats delivered water to residents trapped on their rooftops. three months of rain fell in that region in three days causing thousands of mudslides. two dozen people have died. >>> a big celebration in lima, peru that happened over the weekend to honor special couples exchanging their vows. >> they were a canine variety, mostly chihuahuas and shih tzus arriving. dressed in tuxedos and bridal gowns. once they sealed with a kiss the couples signed their marriage certificates and they took off for their honeymoons. there you have it. by the way, organizers say the mass wedding was intended to encourage owners to be good about grooming their pets, taking good car

as we have reported, it started with rove's suggestion that mrs. clinton suffered brain damage back in december of 2012. he's since backed off, saying she suffered a serious health episode. hillary clinton wasn't seen in public for nearly a month around that time. after suffering from a virus and a concussion and a blood clot, that all happened at that time. yesterday, her husband fired back dismissively. >> now they say she's really got brain damage. if she does, i must be in really tough shape because she's still quicker than i am. >> mr. clinton did say his wife took six months to recover from her concussion. rove says hillary clinton's health will be an issue if she runs for president in 2016. >>> the embattled head of the veterans administration faces tough questions today on capitol hill. some lawmakers have demanded that secretary erik shinseki resign over the growing scandal at a phoenix v.a. hospital. reports say administrators kept an off-the-books list to conceal long wait times as 40 veterans died waiting to get an appointment. the secr

mrs. clinton told robin she sees no reason for another investigation because there have been several investigations. >> benghazi, the investigation. are you satisfied with the answers and are you content with what you know what happened? >> absolutely. i mean, of course, there are a lot of reasons why despite all of the hearings or all of the information that's been provided, some choose not to be satisfied and choose to continue to move forward. but they get to call the shots in the congress. >> reporter: she also weighed in on the kidnapping of the school girls in nigeria. >> the seizure is abominable. it's criminal. an act of terrorism. and it really merits the fullest response possible. first and foremost from the government of nigeria. >> mrs. clinton also had tough words for the nigerian government saying it has been derelict in protecting girls and boys generally and has not accepted enough help from the united states. in this case. that is tougher talk toward the nigerian governmen

mrs. sterling, you own 50% of the l.a. clippers. the nba may insist that the team be sold. what will you do then? >> uh, well that's i'm fighting for my 50%. >> well, there are reports that the nba wants to oust you completely as a team owner. you will fight that decision? >> i will fight that decision. >> what does the team mean to you? >> it means a lot. i have been with the team for 33 years. through the good times and the bad times. and, it's my passion. and i love it. >> do you support the nba decision to ban your husband? >> i can't comment on that. i was shocked by what he said. and, you know, i guess whatever their decision is, we have to live with it. >> so, if your husband is banned, that's something that you would accept? >> well, we're estranged. >> reporter: in fact, mrs. sterling telling barbara walters she plans to divorce donald sterling. >> i signed the petition for a divorce. >> reporter: showing her the papers she has not yet filed. >> your husband made racist remarks re

it said mrs. clinton was meeting with president obama today, something they had not disclosed on the president's schedule nor did the pool reporter who covers the white house know about and it already the white house press core complained about another violation of the promise to be the most chance pararant white house. what was happening there and why wasn't it on the schedule? chris, i'm sure it was a friendly chat and had nothing of interest to say to the public and that's why they didn't feel the need to reveal it. >> i like how it got blown by people saying it was just to hillary clinton heading over to the white house, sorry, did i mention that? and then they take it down and then they change it and come back and say, it wasn't a meeting, it was a lunch, as if they were just hanging out and eating and talking about their families. give me a break. >> this on the heels -- i mean, the meeting comes on the eve of this huge coalition, getting together to talk about how to fend off the damage to

mrs. clinton writes of her republican critics, quote, many of these same people are a broken record about unanswered questions but there's a difference between unanswered questions and unlistened to answers, end quote. carl ram ron is live in washington -- cameron was live in washington. an interesting road down semantics. any answers in her book? >> hi, harris. in a word, no. the excerpteds that came out remain as defiant and combative as ever. mrs. clinton writes, those who exploit this tragedy over and over as a political tool minimize the sacrifice of those who served the country. will not be part of a political slugfest on the back of dead americans, it's plain wrong and unworthy of cower done -- our great country. tough tough. the timing of the leak is convenient. today top democrats met at the office of third way, think tank created by bill clinton's former aides. the meeting was about national security matters that the former secretary of state would have to deal with, as well as w

mrs. clinton had her hands full. to blame her for the attack in libya, not fair. yes, security was bad and the state department was warned. but those things are usually handled by others, not the secretary of state. however, after the attack, now hillary clinton should have stepped up and explained the situation. instead, she herself referred to an anti muslim video as insighting the violence. she went along with what the ocbama administration was puttig out there. that was wrong and that's on her. the key question right now is did president obama himself actually come up with the false narrative? no committee will get that defined unless a guy like john dean steps up. his testimony took the president down. so the congressional committee will uncover some facts but unless a white house insider comes forward, the president will not likely be effected. there is a second scandal surrounding benghazi, some in congress don't want to know the truth, just like vice president gerald ford during watergate. they are in denial. >> the president was in the process of negotiat

clinton sent out that press release. mr. veetor in his discussion with you said, well, there was a pause in the attack. there was an attack and a pause and then it resumed again, and because there had been some turmoil in the region associated with the internet video, it was reasonable for her to say that. so then the next question is, three days later when the bodies come back to andrews air force base and she doubles down on the internet video saying to one of the parents of the dead americans that we will arrest and prosecute the perpetrator of the video, did nothing happen in those three days to thoroughly undermine this narrative to which they were still clinging? >> mara? >> yeah, i think that what happened today and the last couple of days shows this is an issue that's not going to go away and it kind of got a new lease on life i thought. it's something that will certainly dog hillary clinton. now, barack obama doesn't have to run again, and i don't know what further trouble this is going to cause him. but this is a s

. >> we discuss ukraine, benghazi and hillary clinton. mrs. cheney, why do you think they would want to see back in the public eye? dick and lynne cheney. >>> then karl rove sparks a controversy over hillary clinton's health. do i think she has brain damage? no. i think she had a traumatic brain episode. >> she's strong, doing great. as far as i can tell, she's in better shape than i am. >> he joins our sunday panel to explain his comments. >>> plus, growing allegations that veterans die, waiting for treatment at va hospitals across the country. >> isn't there evidence here of criminal wrongdoing, that is falsifying records, false statements to the federal government? that's a crime. >> it should be, yes. >> outrage over a secret waiting list. but how widespread are the problems? and who knew about them? we'll ask the leading whistleblower, dr. sam foote and ryan galluci of the vfw. >>> and scott reed on the u.s. chamber of commerce's multimillion dollar stake in the 2011 election. >> if you say something stupid we're not going to support you.

mrs. clinton sent out a press release linking the video to the benghazi violence, mrs. clinton statement of the out of sink with -- sync with intelligence it was -- with the ben rhodes e-mail. testifying that state department did not respond quickly that night. >> it is not what they did in that situation, it is what they done do, they did not come forward with stronger requests for action. >> what was the mood -- the feeling? to save our people? >> it was desperation to be able to -- >> what. >> desperation to begin situational awareness and to do something. >> he was not in the operational al chain of command. >> meeting some who would like to distort your testimony, and suggestion tha that you are testifying we could have, should have done a lot more than we did because we had capabilities we did not use lies. >> this is -- utilize. >> this is not my testimony. >> thank you, general. >> we should have done more. and we owe it to the memory of the 4 people that are fallen. >> house speaker boehner -- statement that john kerry should come to the hill to testify. lou? >

it to her husband to take on republican strategist karl rove who had suggested that mrs. clinton may have a serious brain injury. >> now they're saying she has a serious brain injury, but if she does, i must be in terrible shape because she is quicker than i am. >> rove is accusing her of hiding her health. >> i didn't say she had an issue with brain damage. >> mrs. clinton was not seen in public for nearly a month as secretary of state beginning in december 2012, when she suffered from a virus, a concussion caused by a fall and the blood clot. at the time, the clinton team down played her condition, they did not reveal she suffered from a concussion until days after she returned to work. she acknowledged she had not fully recovered yet. >> i still have lingering effects but the doctors tell me that will all recede. >> now the hillary clinton spokesperson says she is 100% recovered and 100% healthy. she is about to be out in public in a big way. she has a new book coming out next month, with a natural book tour that will look a lot like a grueling campaign. >>> overseas f

let's start first, before we get into the book, with hillary clinton, mrs. cheney because she's back in the news. obviously, the monica lewinsky essay in vanity fair, and also of course, more importantly, the benghazi deal, and her famous what difference does it make comment, and this e-mail emerged with the document dump from the judicial watch lawsuit. >> the issue of benghazi is devastating. she was secretary of state, an ambassador is killed, three others, and then there's this huge effort to make it appear as though this has nothing to do with terrorism or an organization affiliated with al qaeda. adding on to all of that her television appearance, which will be played time and time again, when she was before the congress saying what does this matter anyway? well, it matters a lot. if she wants to be a leader, she needs to take responsibility for what happened on her watch. and this is just, you know, one in a long series of foreign policy disasters in this administration, and she was secretary of state. >> what would you grade her, if you had to give h

she said she found it troubling that mrs. clinton would have blamed herself for the affair as well as monica, herself, and let her husband get off scot-free. i'm paraphrasing there. in a way, it's better to have it discussed now. people are going to talk about the nuts and sluts line. hillary was behind the nuts and sluts saga in the past with president clinton. we have to deal with that. is that really enabling more abuse or more taking advantage of women or pro-women to trash lewinsky today? >> i'm just shaking my head. there's a whole group of millenials that weren't aware -- >> shouldn't they know about it? >> why bring it up? >> it's convenient not to bring it up, that's for sure. >> carter is a libertarian. i mean, yeah, hillary -- >> what does that mean? >> she tells ruth marcus what to write and carter what to publish in. >> yesterday, allen, she was called in all three papers, a narcissistic looney tune a. >> hillary called her that. >> diane blare made that quote public. it made it into all three smear pieces and th

this is why mrs. clinton wouldn't call this group a terror group. because they're black. can't afford to do that. this is how surface conscious the left is. we can't call them terrorists because they look like african-americans. and we just can't go there. >> i have never heard more hogwash in 30 seconds. i've got to stephanie, a female, a woman. he accuses hillary of having some sort of sexual attraction or romantic attraction to the head of boko haram. this gets a little odd here. he's good look, he's black and he looks like an african-american. i didn't get a good look at the guy. i don't know what to say? sexism, weirdism? limbaughism. he's good looking? what is that? how do you get that out of this picture? >> it's shocking. the republican, they have nothing to say so they're going to the bottom of the bottom here on attacks, pulling anything they can out. because the truth is, everybody knows that her tenure as secretary of state was excellent. and on the record, you know, month after month since she left, folks have been talking about how great of a leader -- >> do

may be not quite as warm as his relationship with mrs. clinton. he has been her longtime supporter. it is, if you think about it, it is so smart to get this out of the way now. rand paul has been bringing it up. it is an issue. if sexual harrassment is such a thing in our society now -- >> is it an issue for her or him? >> rand paul is certain it's an issue for her, too. >> why is that? >> i'm not sure exactly i understand. i guess maybe she should've taken a stronger stand against it. >> the problem i have with that argument is that you don't really know how strong someone acted within the confines of their own privacy. >> this is such an issue now for feminists and rightly so. the idea of power relationships. a 21-year-old intern and a 50-something-year-old president of the united states. this is the classic example of power being used inappropriately. >> why do you think america seems to have forgiven the president? >> he's such a genial fellow. we talked about milton -- he's a really interesting figure. >> in other words, he's a likea

we'll ask karl rove whether this is mrs. clinton's 2016 kick-off. carl cameron is here for the fallout of mitch mcconnell's primary up next. a new memo surfacing tonight that could prove very embarrassing to va bosses and obama administration. we'll talk about building a possible case against the white house. >> it was going on four years ago >> you're talking about an internal va memo. i would refer to you the va about their internal memos. creates something else as well: jobs all over america. engineering and innovation jobs. advanced safety systems & technology. shipping and manufacturing. across the united states, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs. when we set up operation in one part of the country, people in other parts go to work. that's not a coincidence. it's one more part of our commitment to america. to launch a startup from your garage. from computers, smartphones, and 3-d printers to coffee, snacks, and drinks to fuel the big ideas. yes, staples has everything you need to launch a startup from your garage. mom! except permiss

i wouldn't want to prejudge mrs. clinton's health. i don't know anything about it. certainly i felt responsible to be open about my health when i was vice president and a candidate, and i think that's going to be expected of anybody who runs for president or vice president. >> what do you think of benghazi? do you think she did anything wrong and should she be held responsible? >> she was secretary of state at the time it happened. she was one of the first in washington to know about it. i think she carries responsibility for whatever the state department did or didn't do with respect to that crisis. i do think it's a major issue. i think we haven't heard the last of it yet, and i would expect that she will be held accountable during the course of the campaign. >> mrs. cheney, you said recently that you felt the clintons must be pleased that ""vanity fair" magazine wrote an article written by monica lewinsky. why on earth do you think they would want to see lewinsky back in the public eye, and do you think that the lewinsky scandal is a legitimate issue for hillary

a new poll shows why republicans are nervous about mrs. clinton, former secretary. it shows hillary with a huge lead over every contendner the decisive state of ohio, which probably will decide this thing. states like ohio. up by seven point against marco rubio and paul ryan. leads by eight point against rand paul, chris christie and mike huckabee. she's up nine point against jeb bush and ted cruz, 19 points, no surprise there. i'll call this preventive war. one of its goals is perhaps to scare her off from entering the race in the first place a the governor said. or muddy her up before the run. let's watch some of the attacks in action. >> what grade do you give her as secretary of state? >> i don't think she has a passing grade. >> she's an f? >> if you look at the diplomacy in her time, it's failed everywhere in the world. >> should we as a country have a commander-in-chief who didn't provide adequate security in libya, didn't send re-enforcements and gave us nothing but spin in hillary clinton has precluded herself from ever being considered for that position. >

last night mrs. clinton criticized jonathan's government for not doing enough to protect itself people. >> the nigerian government has failed to confront the threat or to address the underlying challenges of poverty, lawlessness and despair in marginalized northern niger jan areas. all of this demands a strong response from the people and government of nigeria. >> mrs. clinton's critics say the delay in declaring boco haram a terrorist group kept the u.s. from fully addressing the threat it posed, although goodluck jonathan's rights record would have kept him from getting military aid. >> let's continue. we're bringing in tim furnish. he has a doctorate in middle eastern, african, and world history. sir, nice to see you. thank you. >> you're welcome. >> not a worldwide problem but it's a worldwide talk now. dwlou begin doing something about this group? >> well, shepard, i think the first thing that has to be done is the context in which it arises. boco haram is quite violent but it's not new in terms
