george w. bush right now more popular with all voters than jeb bush. george w. bush, who left office in 2008 with an approval rating of 30%, is more popular right now, according to our poll, than jeb bush. very tough for jeb bush to look at republicans and say, hey, i'm the most electable when he's running below his brother, george w., in that question. how about this, look back to a 1999 -- what i mean, when george w. bush was running for president himself, at this same point of the 2000 cycle, this same question in this same poll, he came in at 55 positive, 14 negative. his brother today, 23% positive. when george w. bush was running and telling republicans to get on board with me because i can win, these are the numbers they were looking at. different story. there's more we can show you here. this is jeb -- excuse me, jeb against hillary clinton on the question of which one of these would be a return to the past or which one has new ideas? 60% saying jeb bush would represent a return to the past, old policy, past policies as opposed to new ideas. hillary clin

i think both george bush and george bush the son made a big impact on that and it shows you also the important role with michelle obama and laura bush that made a big difference. >> well, thank you very much. we do appreciate you being here with us today and we're going to wrap it up now. thank you very much for watching our special coverage of the 50th anniversary of the march on selma. you're watching msnbc. >>> don't forget to join us tomorrow at 3:00 p.m. eastern for a special presentation of "selma: 50 years later." >> amazing action, unbelievable rescues. a mother and her children trapped inside the twisted wreckage of a car. >> it did go through our minds that this vehicle could possibly go over the edge. >> firefighters who demonstrate courage any time, any place. >> you're basically hanging 80 feet beneath the helicopter which was not the plan i had in my mind. >> when we first got on scene and looked over the edge, and it was like, oh, this is bigger than we thought. >> acts of bravery from everyday

>> i think the idea is that in 1988 george bush and michael dukakis, neither of them were especially compelling as a candidate. early on the bush team decided rather than raise their positive, their approval they had to attack dukakis to raise his negatives, make him -- just disqualify him as a candidate. what happened was you saw this election where you had one side using negative attacks and trying to undercut the opponent and the other guy trying to run what he called a positive campaign. he did not respond to the charges that were leveled at him, and, of course as we know they stuck. it was an election where you have one guy -- i think the best someone said at the time that the american voting public they like someone who fights dirty over someone who doesn't fight back at all. >> going through this and you have this nice interesting, long sit-down with michael dukakis today, looking back at circa 1988. he was going to be a steady hand and in many ways this was roger ail's campaign and they knew it was tough to run for a third term in a row, so they had to do something drastic si

i'm giving you inside information that i helped bill clinton with, george bush, and i tried to help these people over the last two presidencies. even barack obama has my work. host: what kind of inside information to provide? caller: i do work on new developing programs, services, and it that are very important to create job opportunities and careers for the average person in the united states of america. my major concern is that people need opportunities and they are not getting them. host: that is going. he mentioned bernie sanders and he is mentioned in this article in "the washington post." john weidner writes that new

charlie: george bush has been good about that? dan: he has and for the most part his staff has been. if they disagree, they should say it, but -- charlie: talking about the president specifically. dan: the president has been great about it. i've been around him a little bit. charlie: did you change your opinion of what you thought about him? dan: 100%. charlie: how so. dan: fundamental policy disagreements, but comes off as a really good person. charlie: do you think his brother will be a powerful political candidate? dan: i think there's questions about whether the country is ready for another bush. you see that both in the republican party and polling generally. charlie: do you see the same thing about another political race between a bush and a clinton? dan: based on like actual data, people remember the clinton years much more fondly than the bush years. charlie: but we see in the polling that there are people saying, we've been there, done that. dan: i mean that is inherently going to be part of any campaign for clinton or bu

george bush 1 -- al gore won 500,000 more popular votes than george bush. he democrats could not get past that no long time when the supreme court made his ruling because they felt al gore won the popular vote, which he had. but the supreme court is the arbiter in cases like this. that is what happened. as far as reagan, president reagan had been an actor. he was in movies and television. he had a lot of skills that are valuable for presidents to have. he was once asked -- a reporter in consternation said a lot of people think you are a big movie actor, how are you qualified to be president? he said, i think it is difficult for me to imagine a president who was not an actor. because he feels those skills are important. that is the way reagan was. he had brilliant performances on television -- i am not saying that critically. it worked for him. the d-day anniversary speech when the space shuttle blew up, it is rather president's speeches are remembered. reagan's where. jeb bush, you talk about the e-mail situation, he did try to help his rather win florida.

every single one was initiated by george w. bush. two of them he did all by himself. three week or operate with him on fannie freddie, the t.a.r.p. and they are those. people see what happened to bipartisanship? bush is president and in 2008 he it comes to harry reid and nancy pelosi to bury partisan and able people. he said the economy is going in into the tank. they said let's work one out. it would have been worse for government so they worked with him on that. a year later when obama asks obama did not ask for a stimulus because we had done focus groups. you know what a focus group is. together people who don't have firm opinions. the problem with that is very often people don't have firm opinions. if you look at the focus groups in october of an election-year only in the sighted people in october can be in a focus group. who is undecided between obama mccain or bush and gore or bush and kerry. maybe if you have three of this or for bad. anyway the focus groups reported that stimulus was a bad word. the negative connotations of that is why it was called the econom

and i think george bush is always known as a very friendly guy. >> as bill clinton. >> but george bush also had horrendous relations with many of the leaders and countries in the world. the president has very good relations. his style has worked for him. >> but help me understand. this is really interesting. because we are right at the point of understanding. i mean you have seen him up close, up close up personal. you've talked about life. you've talked about culture. all those kinds of things. where does that come from. is that all in the first book that he wrote that explains being an outsider explains the lifestyle he's had. is that what is in the end shaped the guy that's been president and we expect him to be things that he's not because his experiences were different? >> i mean, i think the first book, you know is having a president to have written a memoir like, gives people a window into his-- the creation of his identity and a way in which other you may not have for other presidents because that was not the book of a person who is going to run for president. that was a raw me

i started to get nervous then george bush this is in the appendices. he was substantially increase those below the median income. by 2005 by joining the republican chairman to pass a bill in the house in the committee i had problems on the floor but a pass the house the senate republican did not like it but the democrats did. put the bush administration would pull the plug and ross -- and with sarbanes-oxley they said george bush gave me though one finger salute. 2007 i become the chairman and we pass the bill. . .

bush was in 1999 and jeb bush now -- he's basically upside down. when you look at george w. bush you don't need to worry about -- you can defend him like that. i think the bigger thing is if you look at the rise of the tea party movement what did they talk about? >> i also have to say this is a very weird thing for jeb bush to be doing. he and his people said from get k ing out the gate i am my own man. now he's saying not so much. i understand why we could have waited until farther into the cycle. is he that desperate for money? it seems like a ploy. that shows you're really not inevitable. he's definitely not inevitable, but it is just cheesy. >> no one on the right sees this as the kind of race that will be locked up. >> right. i think he's dealing with somebody who is very weak in scott walker. the wheels are falling off the truck before the truck is on the road. ted cruz just like with mitt romney, if you get a bunch of people on the right firing at each other and ted cruz intends to be the first one doing that there is room for jeb bush to consolidate and win the battl

and then george bush came out and got in the march, and i left. [cheers and applause] i determine that i was not marching anywhere with george bush. the selma movement stands for nonviolence and peace and democracy and fairness and voting rights, and george bush stands for just the opposite. he stands for violence and war and stolen elections. and, for goodness sake, his administration had people tortured. i think this occasion was not appropriate for him to be here. i think for him to appear to be leading people involved in the nonviolent movement in this country for a photograph to go across the world would make it look as though we have sold out. i think that is an insult to people whose lives were taken. reverend reed, jimmy lee jackson . it is an insult to me, and i think it is an insult to everybody who really does believe in nonviolence. that being said, i want to mention just a couple of things that i think might be of value as we continue to struggle now. and the first thing is, i think it would be a huge mistake for americans to leave th

george bush 1 -- al gore won 500,000 more popular votes than george bush. he democrats could not get past that no long time when the supreme court made his ruling because they felt al gore won the popular vote, which he had. but the supreme court is the arbiter in cases like this. that is what happened. as far as reagan, president reagan had been an actor. he was in movies and television. he had a lot of skills that are valuable for presidents to have. he was once asked -- a reporter in consternation said a lot of people think you are a big movie actor, how are you qualified to be president? he said, i think it is difficult for me to imagine a president who was not an actor. because he feels those skills are important. that is the way reagan was. he had brilliant performances on television -- i am not saying that critically. it worked for him. the d-day anniversary speech when the space shuttle blew up, it is rather president's speeches are remembered. reagan's where. jeb bush, you talk about the e-mail situation, he did try to help his rather win florida.

george hw bush felt that this was important. while he was still vice president he came to the nih and wanted to meet me. i want i want to meet this person i see doing all this. i spent a considerable amount of time with them and reducing them to my patients, talking to him about what hiv is command we struck up a friendship. it it was one of those great honors that falls into your lap. he would invite he would invite me to the vice president's mansion for lunch and receptions. when he became president it was wonderful because i had a direct input to him. he would call me up or invite me to watches. even after he left the presidency he would write me notes and sent me a nice letter on my 60th birthday joking around saying, i saying, i can't believe you are 60 years old. .. >> dr. fauci: for the purpose of determining the feasibility of developing a program that might transform hiv/aids in the developing word. i got to be close to president george w. bush reerated to the fact i knew -- related -- him from his father but he took a

one of the things that made the post 9/11 theories of dick cheney and george bush so extremist is there is no more limitless power that a president han the power he can exercise during a theater of war. on a battlefield, there really is no law. everybody acknowledges that. terrorist say when men take up arms, law false. more is the ultimate expression of lawlessness in limitless powerful stuff on the battlefield, people shoot each other without having trials or due process. everyone agrees that is war to nobody thinks soldiers have to give opposing soldiers a trial before shooting them. that is what war is. what made these post-9/11 theories so radical is the assertion was made for the first time theaters of war were no longer confined to find a physical faces, the battlefield. it was now the case the entire planet was the battlefield. including u.s. soil. therefore, the limitless power that the president can exercise on a battlefield are now no longer confined to physical spaces. essentially the president is omnipotent everywhere because that is where the battlefield is found. what you

george w. bush, will you apologize for slavery? no, i will not apologize for slavery because africans participated in the slave trade. americans did the same.ica sh he felt because so many people participated, america shouldn't apologize. i mean, why not apologize for what happened? what this nation allowed to an happen? >>iden can this president do it? should this president do it? >> can this president do it?. i doubt it. i doubt if he will. i think it would be -- i really doubt if he would.k it wou but if he wanted to i'm sure he could. but i think -- i think it would send a bigger message if there were to be a president who is not necessarily african-american to do something like that's andmo i think -- any president could do it. a i think it's more so about a president, not necessarily the color. but there are different resident underlying issues fund this president were to do that. >> let's try jim again in chicago, illinois. line for independents. jim, good morning, you're on with april ryan. >> caller: good morning april. >>

president george bush, a c minus. the only reason i gave a c minus is because he had a failing grade of f and one categories. that failing category was katrina. anytime you have people die, people. people who felt disenfranchised and felt their country did not stand up for them or was there for them, that receives a failing grade. we are still feeling the affects of katrina, 10 years after katrina. specifically for the new orleans community. president clinton received a b plus. yes, there were things he could have done more. there were things he did nbc did not do. as obama is interesting. i changed his grade while i was in the process. you see a big difference between first-term black obama and second term. specifically, second term fourth quarter. he had to navigate the waters strategically. anything to target african-americans, would have been viewed, by some groups, in a negative light. you cannot discount the fact that there are deserve what it should -- there are disproportionate numbers when it comes to african

even though he was lamb -- lamponning george bush -- >> do you watch "snl"? >> yeah, actually. >> do you watch it and think, wow, this is really conservative? >> i watch it and i am a little embarrassed that i sometimes watch it. the point he is right on, it is not that it is too politically conservative. it has had six years to lay a glove on obama and it hasn't. as far as it being subversive and anti-establishment, it is not subversive. >> that's like my least favorite word. >> it is a stupid word. >> it is like holding your nose in the bath. >> the reaction to the kate mckinnon bit. people said is this too far? people are criticizing it. you are playing a crazy person. that upset people. it should upset people from time to time. now it just bores everyone. >> and do you think a part of that too is they care more about ratings than they do about being progressive, right? they have been going for so long. they need to keep the viewers. >> right. their point is not to make political commentary. they want ratings. with the hillary clinton skit, i thought it hu

obama, president bush press george bush and mrs. bush for being here today. i want to thank all the members of the cabinet and the administration who are here my colleagues in the congress, all the elected officials including the great give robert bentley and including the phaeurmayor of selma george evans and all other american people. i would like for all members of congress in our delegation just to stand. [applause] john lewis: thank you. i want to thank the group for bringing us together one more time and the core leaders of our delegation senator tim scott senator sherry brown, and the representatives. thank you so much. it sis good to mrs. boynton of course our first contact when we came to sell ma in 1962. she was registering people to vote long before we arrived. i'm also glad it see the daughter of governor george wallace here peggy wallace kennedy. thank you for being here, peggy. i want to thank each and every one of you who marched across the bridge on bloody sunday. you didn't have to do it but you did it. thank you! i will tell you it is good t

people say, oh, this is george w. bush george h.w. bush put scowcroft up to that. that's not the case. they knew each other's minds but it was scowcroft who gave an appearance on "meet the press" i think it was with bob schieffer, and his colleague and partner in the scowcroft group arnie cantor, saw this and said, hey, that's pretty good, you ought to write it up. so he wrote it up and sent it to "the wall street journal," they said, we'll run it. knowing that he faxed a copy to the senior bush to condi race and then it ran, and she got on the phone with him and yelled at him, and he says he got taken to the woodshed. and denied knowing about his position which was, which was not the case. and so, yeah it made things very difficult. but what was interesting though is that he later on was in support of the surge. even though he opposed the war, he said, well, where are we now and what do we need to do, and in this situation we can't withdraw, so we need these more troops. in the second term, he worked very closely with rice, with hadley who he's close to and then w

george bush ordered fannie mae and freddie mac to substantially increase the number of loans they bought for people below the median income. for 2005 i joined the republican chairman passing the bill in the house and the community. it passed the house. the senate republicans did not like the bill. tried to work it out have a ministration pulled the plug the chairman of the community was asked why nothing ever happened said george bush give me the one finger salute. 2,007 have become the chairman of the community and we passed the bill. and cheney's memoir the last time. some people them. [laughter] i can tell you politics mentioned benjamin franklin. [laughter] [laughter] >> there it goes. turn to my name. he says in his memoir in 2,003 we submitted a bill to reform fannie mae and freddie mac but barney frank killed it. the financial chairman of the house is being run by that time by tom delay. if i was really giving orders i would not -- there are a lot of things i would have done, stopped the big cash price and told him to go on dancing with the stars. [laughter] i said in the book in

i think george bush had a plan similar to that. it was kind of rejected and now as you get farther and farther down the road, the challenges get greater and greater. i don't have a social security plan in front of me, but it is going to have to be changed. we should not look at this as a meat cleaver. we should think about a better way to design all of these systems. medicare, for example. let me tell you about what we're doing in ohio for medicare or medicaid. right now, the health care system is fundamentally run on the basis of quantity not quality. we had a program where we gave a children's hospital money to deal with asthma. we found out that we were successful. hospitals had fewer visits because they kept kids out of the hospital. so they had less revenue. the insurance companies didn't pay as many claims so they had more revenue. we were able to get the insurance companies and the hospitals to share the benefit so that we keep kids healthy and drive down the cost of medicine. everybody is a winner. we had to think creativel

president george w. bush and wife laura arrived a short time ago. but as i was looking at the images of eric holder and dr. sharon malone there, i am reminded that en among african-americans, there is a generational thing that happens as we get older and some of us are younger, as randall pointed out. but for the president, it is not firsthand memory but for eric holder it is. >> in terms of generationally. but in addition, though keep in mind eric holder i would imagine, in fact i know some people who know them. his wife is a young assistant of malone. so, hey, you know he's got his education. he has his -- he is in touch with history 24/7, you know, through his wife. so and i think that with barack obama, it's generational. also, he was in hawaii but he has michelle. >> we are going to take a brief break because we want to get a commercial break in before the president crosses that bridge but i guarantee you should he move in that direction, we will be right back. stay with us. yet today she still inexplicitly >>> an al jazeera special report: rac

he belonged to president george w. bush. he liked to play with soccer balls, watch people play horseshoes. sadly he died a couple years ago. despite the charmed life he led at the white house, he had his share of adversaries, including vladimir putin. vladimir putin told president bush that his dog was bigger, faster, meaner, stronger than barney. the first person that had the gall to insult the president's dog to the president's face. and the only other person to do that was harry reid. this is from "new york times" magazine in 2010. when bush invited harry reid in for coffee, the president's dog walked in. how did harry reid greet the arrival of his dog? he said your dog is fat. don't listen. don't listen. at that point president bush was probably used to harry reid not mincing his words. in 2002 president bush is a liar, he betrayed the country. may 2005 when asked about president bush harry reid said the man's father is a wonderful human being. i think this guy is a loser. the things you heard me say about george bush yo

i did talk to what was in the mind of george bush one or judged verse two -- for george bush to, i can just say that the best thing i can do in my job is to do my homework and asked the questions and hopefully, to have some judgment on which to make the right decision. host: alabama, republican. go ahead. caller: some pretty women on tv today. maybe that will give me a few extra seconds. i am off subject. i'm a chronic pain page and -- patient and i have had over many back surgeries and will have to have others. the company -- when i went on disability, me and all the other guys and some of them have parkinson's and diseases like that, we were promised full pension. host: the house is gaveling in early at 9 a.m. eastern, so unfortunately, i have to ask you to hurry up. caller: my question, miss loretta sanchez, will you please do something to help people like us. i am unable to work and i can't make a dollar if i had to. guest: first of all difficulties, back surgeries, i admire you for being on the phone, talking, moving on. we are trying. i know that a lot of people don't like the ac

director louie freeh and larry thompson from the george w. bush administration. mr. president, under ordinary circumstances this would have been an easy ask for the president to bring a person of this quality to the senate for confirmation. she had three votes supporting her in the judiciary committee from the republican side. i don't understand the objections of the others, but i respect whatever their reasoning. all that i am asking for, all the president is asking for, all the senate is asking for is a vote. a vote. bring her off the pages of the calendar before the senate for a vote. don't make it contingent on some bill or some political agreement in the future. let this woman who has led such an extraordinary life, have her chance to continue to serve the united states of america. that to me, is only fair and only just and would be in keeping with the traditions of

remember the signing statements that george bush used to do where he would say i choose to ignore or disregard any part of law i don't like? i hated that. i would be a total hypocrite today if i weren't saying executive orders if i hated them under bush -- >> we have no problem with hypocrisy. >> i actually do have a problem with hypocrisy. i don't want to be here five years from now and i'm sure i will be yelling about the fact of potential republican president. i shouldn't say five years because hillary will be the next president. >> do you think this president has taken it to a whole new level, given the sweeping nature of his orders? given delaying deportation is up to 5 million americans? no president can do that. it's logical to extend that to taxes. he himself knows he is way overdone. >> wait a minute. george herbert walker bush -- >> that was a mistake, too. >> that's my point. >> we are to the forgiving the sins of others. >> this is a big, big thing. the constitution. big thing. >> where is this all going? >> i think next year will have a lot of showdowns and we'll test th

. >> and i don't ever remember george bush doing anything like this. i remember george bush sitting down with "the new york times" three times as president. he sat down with brian williams after katrina and no one demagogued katrina more than brian williams. he spoke to all americans. for some reason, barack obama doesn't like us and doesn't want to make his case to us. >> i think he's spoken -- >> put his pants on, juan. stop whining. don't be a cry baby in chief. >> i'm all with you. i think he should speak to fox. >> do his job, stop blaming other people. >> we have reporters -- he's spoken to o'reilly and bret baier and done those interviews. but he should be here -- >> that's my point. >> a lot of people who aren't even conservative watch fox. that's why it's the most watched cable news by far. >> and i don't have a problem letting my friend juan on, even though i like his son's political opinions better than his political opinions. >> and my wife. >> and your wife. the family is right except you. that ought to tell you somebody. >> it does, i tel

president george bush, a c minus. the only reason i gave a c minus is because he had a failing grade of f and one categories. that failing category was katrina. anytime you have people die, people. people who felt disenfranchised and felt their country did not stand up for them or was there for them, that receives a failing grade. we are still feeling the affects of katrina, 10 years after katrina. specifically for the new orleans community. president clinton received a b plus. yes, there were things he could have done more. there were things he did nbc did not do. as obama is interesting. i changed his grade while i was in the process. you see a big difference between first-term black obama and second term. specifically, second term fourth quarter. he had to navigate the waters strategically. anything to target african-americans, would have been viewed, by some groups, in a negative light. you cannot discount the fact that there are deserve what it should -- there are disproportionate numbers when it comes to african

as well as former president george w. bush. explain to us why it is so important for a president to make a mark, to make comment about a moment a page in history, such as this. >> well president obama has been thinking a lot about lyndon johnson and the voting rights act and civil rights act last year. he went to the johnson library in austin texas, and was just eno, ma'am orred with johnson. he was listened to some of the taped conversations of lyndon johnson. so to be able to come here today and be surrounded. remember john lewis, congressman from georgia, as far as the living symbol the witness, the participant of bloody sunday. but you had nine people that were arrested, and it was a horror scene there that lyndon johnson wapd watched on his television and it wasn't just being beat by clubs and whips. they even had a barbed wire cutting into some of the protesters here. and the whole scene with the horses and the like. so what transpired on that bridge is a battle zone. but it's one that was for democracy, and john lewis no

the more jeb bush got george bush to do was held totally unconstitutional. the american public was outraged t fact that they would dictate. jeb bush is an absolute fanatic on this subject. one of the things we have to deal with is what to do when they're in that stage, when life has passed and is there a right for the individuals themselves to make some judgments. i think jeb bush's fanaticism on that is a logistical issue and belies his image. >> we're running low on time but i want to get one more question on. the book looking back at your entire career. so many people you've served with, encountered with in politics. i wonder when you look back on your career do you have a favorite republican and favorite democrat you worked with? >> there were two favorite republicans, both senators. warren redman. i thought that was a great thing. and then al simpson who i worked with and we got rid of the anti-gay immigration position and rob paul had great deal of integrity, with whom i worked on military spending and iran. when he started taking seriouslying he might

the history of the bushes in new hampshire. george h.w. bush having won and lost. george w. bush having lost. why is it that historically the bush name has not been the most popular name in new hampshire presidential primaries? governor sununu: it was in 1998 when he won the primary. in 1992, i think the president really suffered from a campaign operation that was a disgrace in my opinion. it created problems for him up here. i think the bush name is still a strong man in the state. i think the relationship that the state has by virtue of proximity to their being up in kennebunk quite often is an important asset. most important, they philosophically there is a very good fit. they want somebody that can get things done and the bushes certainly have reputation for doing that. they want someone who has the capacity in foreign policy. i think it is too early to start talking about specific candidates. i think the important thing to understand is the republican party is going to have a great process going on up here and people are going to be selecting from a very broad omenu of

what did george bush say? they are going to take positions on this and it is going to hurt them. john: the ryan budget was such an atrocity around mitt romney's neck. i do not think this was as toxic, but turning medicaid into a block grant, do what they want to do, that in and of itself is toxic. i want to be clear, republicans are doing what they believe in. mark: they're going to have to prove they can talk about it and defend it anyway they have never been able to do in modern politics. aaron schock, the irishman from illinois and a target of the investigative unit announced today he is quitting congress. it was not just the questionable payments to donors and sloppy expense records that landed him under the microscope ethics had opened and it is initiation into the -- an investigation to him. we were already surprised. when we come back, lindsey graham is going to make some jokes. ♪ mark: our guest tonight is more sober than most at the 5:00 p.m. hour. he was very sober after our st. patrick's day irish breakfast, where we talked about the art of political stand up. mark:
