back with kevin madden steve mcmahon, and sara murray. steve, smart for him to be taking on a democrat, elizabeth warren this is in her criticism of the transpacific partnership trade deal but a democrat who's arguably more popular than he is with his base? those are strong words. >> well they were strong words but i think it's honest of him to do it. one of the things that happens when you become president you have to look at the entire world and you look at it sometimes a little differently than when you're a progressive senator from massachusetts. they each have a job to do and they are different jobs. elizabeth warren is a strong voice for, you know, workers and for progressive causes, and we need that in our party. the president is the president and he's negotiating a trade deal, and he's not going to sell out progressive policies because he's you know one of the biggest proponents of progressive policies we've ever had in the white house. >> she's popular, though sara murray, and we are a year away from this election. it's not obama

joining me now is sara murray. good morning, sara. >> good morning, carol. arkansas governor mike huckabee is just minutes away from announcing he's going to give it another go and throw his hat in the ring for the 2016 republican presidential nomination. in this speech he's going to try to cast himself as a small town guy that understands what average americans are going through and can relate to them in terms of economic struggles and security concerns. of course it is no coincidence that we are here in hope arkansas shared birth place of bill clinton and of mike huckabee. he really wants to set that contrast up early with the clinton family and democratic front runner hillary clinton. take a look at this video clip. >> on his first day in office governor huckabee was in bill clinton's arkansas. he had huge democratic majorities in the house and senate. you had all of the apparatus of the democratic party aligned against mike huckabee and all of a sudden this republican comes out of nowhere and wins. >> reporter: that gives you an idea of the contract that

sara murray thanks so much. we'll talk more about this because the wealth question sort of feels like deja vu all over again except wealthy fat cat isn't a republican it's a democrat this time around. with me now, s.c. cupp and jamal simmons. so s.c. hillary clinton is wealthy. so was mitt romney. is there a difference in their empathy factor? >> i don't think most americans have a problem with wealth. most americans are aspirational and the problem for hillary clinton despite what bernie sanders says is not the fact that she's wealthy. the fact that -- two things. there's a lack of transparency around her business dealings politics and her personal wealth and people don't really understand how money is coming in and where it's going to if there's influence pedalling and that would be helpful. and then this idea that somehow she's a millionaire and is still a common person. i think people don't believe that. they don't think that's genuine. she should just sort of accept the fact that she's a very wealthy person

sara murray thanks. interesting. so that latest poll showing carly fiorina faces a challenge among iowa voters. 66% say they haven't heard enough about her to make up their minds and in a possible bid to boost her profile, she sat down with comedian seth myers. >> the question is since there's-- you're a crowded group. one thing you would all agree on is how does that define you from other candidates when you start with the hillary part? >> everything about me is different. for one, i'm on your show. let's start with that. >> absolutely. we don't have enough chairs for all of you. >> i know. i know. >> gop hopefuls considered long shots for the nomination but could a presidential run pay off in other ways. let's talk to our guests. so first of all, i just want to center on the shear number of republican candidates because according to larry, the number could hit 2 11 candidates. seriously? >> it goes to show you that there will never be a dull moment but it shows diversity of the republican party and what's going on

let's bring in jeff zel any and her cnn political reporter sara murray. tell us what you heard about this event. >> people in the room said they were very surprised to hear jeb bush citize brother brother as one of his go-to policy advisers on foreign policy on the middle east. obviously george w. bush's legacy still divisive with the americans. people said i was jarring to hear the remark. >> what's been the reaction? >> it's surprising that he would do this to voters in general. but among republicans. so that's perhaps why jeb bush was doing this because surprisingly some big donors like sheldoned a l sop do not think''s pro-israel. long term i'm not sure. >> this was an event that had a lot of pro-israel types. is that what it was about? >> absolutely. the way that jeb bush staffers are trying to cast this is jeb was only talking about iz ra el. he wasn't talking about foreign policy. yes, george w. bush was a great ally of israel. that's how they're trying to cast it. their aggressive pushback to the idea that e with was talking more broadly about for
