Race. I still say Dunkin Donuts coffee is better. Varney company, though, we are about to begin. I believe in you. I believe in the power of millions of courageous conservatives rising up to reignite the promise of america. That is why today i am announcing that i am running for president of the United States. [cheering and applause] stuart there it was. A speech at liberty university. The Largest Christian University in the country. His faith played a big role in that announcement speech. The first candidate to announce. He did it first on twitter. I am running for president. I hope to our newer support. Also releasing this campaign ad. A time for truth. Ready to make America Great again. I do not is there a problem here . He was born in canada. How does that work . We asked the judge mr. Napolitano in about a half an hour. The un special says the country is on the brink of civil war. Seizing control of the northern part of the country and the countries Third Largest city. Iranian power is very, very close. K. T. Mcfarland is with us. President obama is about to do a deal with iran where they will unplug the program. They will peak you swear to not plug it back in. Iran will be the dominant economic power in the region. It will also be the fresh golden power in the region. If you are in that region, you are saying that. Stuart what about the arabia . Did they get thrown under the bus . It is even worse than that. The war that is in yemen yemen has a civil war. Who cares. They have been fighting for centuries. There is a large shiite population. It could be a multiparty civil war in saudi arabia. If that happens stuart i just want to see their position. There you go. Yemen. Southern border right there. If that power moves across the border what does that mean . That is in a very dangerous part of the arabian peninsula. Stuart what is president obama going to do about this . He thinks that everything is fine. I think that he has accepted the fact that iran now runs the middle east. He tweets out on a regular basis. Over the weekend he lessened the chance to death to america. At the same time, you look it you look at the other countries in the region. The other countries are not buying it. A lot of them have said the same thing. Signing a deal with russia to develop its nuclear program. While the president says we will have this deal what it will really do is usher in a Nuclear Arms Race. Unstable part of the world. Develop our energy resources. What is wrong with that . Energy source of the world replacing the chaos. Stuart all right. Take you. Check the big board. We have a very modest gain this monday morning. The dollar is down a little tiny bit. Pretty much flat this monday morning. 46 per barrel. The price of gas unchanged. Still at 2. 42. No plunge just yet. Look at starbucks. Lauren simonetti is here with the details. In case you missed it on the starbucks story. No longer serving up a conversation with your coffee. Starbucks says that campaign was only meant to last a week anyway. This phase of the effort was only just a catalyst for a much broader and longer term conversation. It will be completely finished as of today and today was actually yesterday. On friday, we showed you this questionnaire. X number of friends of a different race. Starbucks is also hiring thousands of workers from different backgrounds. Stuart i just think that the place for a conversation about race is not necessarily in a starbucks door where you go into. Coffee. It is also not with a stranger. I do not want to be provoked into anything when i get my coffee. Suppose if somebody hold an unpopular lytic rate incorrect opinion invoices that loudly in a starbucks store. Is that what he really wants . The questions on not usa today questionnaire were released the late. I do not know how many friends of different races i have. They are my friends. That is it. You go into some starbucks in some of those workers do not even know what you are talking about. They have no idea what this even means. Theyre the ones that were supposed to be writing it on your cup. Stuart okay. Thank you very much in deed, lauren. Art laffer is next. Does he support ted cruz . Art laffer is next. Listen to crews. Imagine and 2017, a new president signing legislation were appealing every word of obamacare. [cheering and applause] push your enterprise and you can move the world. But to get from the old way to the new, youll need the right it infrastructure. From a partner who knows how to make your enterprise more agile, borderless and secure. Hp helps businesses move on all the possibilities of today. And stay ready for everything that is still to come. Stuart and modest gain. Not that far away from 18,200 this morning. Staples is a winner. Ubs says get out there and by that stop. Time is money. Craft singles. You know, those individually packaged pieces of cheese, they have a stamp of approval by a viciousness group. One that says they are not even real cheese. Not so fast. Some are calling it spyware. The new chevy malibu will have a tracking system. Piece of the world hold on a second what is this, a piece in the wall street journals says lifetime ban from baseball. A story that you are interest is in. 43,000 comments on our facebook page. Incredible. I want to get back to senator ted cruz announcing he is running for president. Art laffer. You are the guy who created the prosperity after president reagan and clinton year. The policies of test crews and let you know about him. His speech was the best beach i have heard in ages. That was a wonderful speech. I am very impress by ted cruz. I think that he would make a great candidate. I love the whole field to be honest with you. Very impressive. That speech was a knock it out of the park speech. Stuart i was listening. Carefully. Let them up. Just let them up like a firework. It was exactly like kennedy was. I got seven offers, i think from my mba at stanford. It was terrific. Where are those days today . We need seven8 growth rates for a long period of time to catch back up to where we were. It would be spectacular. Stuart thank you very much. I have to bring you a downer. This is the fifth anniversary of the passage of obamacare. We have a few special soundbites from the folks that brought you obamacare. First one. No. Affordable. Affordable. Affordable. Stuart affordability of obamacare. I do not think that it is affordable. When things are given away free, probably the most expensive things on earth. You will get restrict it and they will be very, very expensive. Probably of low quality. Fifth anniversary did you say i think you really have to come the other way. I think it is three anniversaries of being repealed. [laughter] stuart hold on. We are not done. Let me roll another. More than the 250 million americans that are ready have healthcare insurance. You will keep your healthcare insurance. If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your dog or. If you like your Healthcare Plan you will be able to keep your Healthcare Plan. Everyone knew that that was not true. It is not true. It cannot be true. I do not know why the president chose to say it. It is just ridiculous. It is not nice. Stuart jonathan gruber. Peter gruber was a hollywood producer. Those same mistakes when he was my age two. [laughter] stuart obamacare in the deficit. Roll that tape. Healthcare reform will not add one dime to our deficit. Stuart wont add one dime to the deficit. Go. It is just not true. Responsible for why we have the poor economy that we have today. Government spending is taxation. Obamacare is just an elaborate scheme to tax people and one group to pay for people in another group. It is not affordable and it does not reduce the deficit or even keep it even. Stuart the ted cruz speech included a big section where he said we just have to to repeal obamacare. It was simple. We will appeal obamacare. Exactly what should be done. Stuart that is very important. A social need, if you ask me. By market trip and forces. Exactly. Doctors are in their jobs to make money as much as anyone else. You do not want anyone gaming the system. That is not which you want on this type of legislation. You want it simple and straightforward and it is not. Three years from now we will not have it. How is that . Stuart that is just wishful thing in. Thank you very much. Stuart tracking your teens driving habit. Getting into an accident. What control are you comfortable with . How do you feel about this .

Then they have [laughter] stuart sorry folks. The chevy 2016 malibu. It comes with some new features to keep teenagers safe behind the wheel. I think that you can set the maximum speed two. Even send the parents a report card on how the team is striving. Lauren is back with us. I see this as inevitable. A car is a computer these days. That is what gm says. This is just the beginning of putting more of this tracking information in cars. It can be in control. Through all of these controls the volume on the stereo how fast you can go in the pan scan a report card. I think that it will be terrible. I would never as a teenager drive a car that lets my parents know everything that i was doing. Teenage drivers are not safe drivers. Everyone knows that. Texting and driving is perhaps a bigger problem. 64 billion question. You are not old enough yet to have teenage children. Maybe one day you will. Can you see yourself buying this chevy malibu . Would you do it . I do not think so. I think that it is invasive. I would have a conversation with them if i was doing it. Let them know. Stuart i do not want that control. All of this is done with with self charging cars on the road anyway. Stuart i am sure we will return to this in the next couple hours. A chicago lobbyist works for one day as a substitute teacher.

Not much change for the price of oil. No change for the price of gas overnight, at least. The cheapest gas and all the United States of america 1. 81 in crossville, tennessee. I may be driving through there. And then we have republicans senators ted cruz to announce he is running for president in 2016. Cruz is an american citizens who was born in canada. This is article two section one of the constitution. No person except for a natural born citizen shall be eligible to the office of president. Does he have a constitutional problem . No. That has been defined several times i that congress is self in several different ways. If one of your parents was a natural born americans citizen and lived in the u. S. For 10 years, then you are a natural born citizen no matter where your mother was at the time of your earth. The statute is clear the meaning of it is clear. Would the court here in . The court would not concern itself with who is running or president , but only who is serving as president. They would probably not. Until after election day. Stuart a strict constitutionalists. I suggest that you would approve of this candidacy. I am glad for that candidacy. He quoted jefferson this morning. The purpose of the constitution is to change down the government. Then when he said it is a federal right he doesnt look at the federal government as one of limited authority. More than any other candidate likely to run for president except for senator randy paul. I spent a lot of time with him. I knew him very well. Stuart where do you think ted cruz is going . I think that ted cruz will probably join all of the other republicans but randy paul. Make the world safe for democracy. I think randa paul would pull back from that. Stuart which more with you have fought in the last 100 years . Will you answer the question as asked. Yes, absolutely. Probably not. At the time, yes. Today, no. All of these things that was an absurd use of the military. All of that stuff a cia agent which went rogue. P2 vietnam at first. I was wrong. [laughter] stuart the purpose so for this to be the absolute last resort to save the nation. It is not to be used to move National Borders because we do not like what is going on in other countries. A half to be that close to pulling a trigger. If they do not have an air force, they do not have the ability to pull the checker. Stuart judge great stuff on a monday. A retired Union Lobbyist he substituted as a teacher for one day. He is now at legible for pension benefits. The state retirement board scaled back his benefits. Now, suing the city to keep it. Jeff flock is in chicago. Jeff i do not know what to say. He says that this was legal. There was a state law that passed. He taught history by the way in springfield illinois. He got paid 93. You are right. Exceed five years old. Union lobbyists for the teachers union. Pin this one is. Proof is constitution which says pension cannot be diminished after they are delivered. This goes to the heart of whether the state Pension Funds have been restructured and someplace. Not necessarily constitutional. Valid and well. Just. It reads the presidency. A judge should invalidate that statue. That is breaking new legal ground. A deal can be upset and overturned. You think that that is legit . Leap is to have him from his benefit for one word. Being that it was lawful, but the law is found in just. You are not. Credible. Stuart wash your mouth out judge. You are proposing to really overturned a huge deal which would save a little late, but really mess up a contract. Yes. Stuart a bid lower lip government bizarre confederacy. Not caring about future generations. Stuart i would give you a nine out of 10 on todays performance. Watch this. It says the u. S. Constitution next case. A major walmart investors says they want walmart to stop selling Assault Rifles. How much power does shareholders have. Also eric schmidt. Per per pop up up up him him him him learning dow jones average of 43 points. Take a look at some of the leaders here. We are watching pfizer. With that, we have seen the real winner and moving to a new high. Talking about healthcare. Looking at some of the biotech stocks. A buy on the dip. Lulu lemon cutting their price target. A weak start to the year. Much more and warranty and Company Coming up. And the rush i get, lasts way more than an hour. announcer at scottrade, we share your passion for trading. Thats why weve built powerful technology to alert you to your next opportunity. Because at scottrade, our passion is to power yours. Stuart trinity wall street church. They are challenging the Assault Rifle sales. They challenged walmart. Are they going to win in court . They blame these types of guns for the mass killings we have seen this country. A quarterly shareholder. Stuart that is what the court said. Right. Three panel judges will be meeting. Even if they say okay ultimately it will not have an impact. 50 already of the companies. The broader impact here is the impact and the influence of shareholders on companies. Stuart you would be able to raise this question. Proposals from shareholders the same. It will slow them down from running the day to day business. Stuart thank you very much, in deed. Lets talk about google, for a moment. Let me lay this story out here. Google got a pass from the administration. That is when the government wanted to sue google. Then the government backed off. Google received a merest lap on the rest. Bigtime google guy had just organized president obamas election victory. Lets ask the ceo. I say i smell crony capitalism. You run a big perforation. You know how it is you have to work with the government. It is interesting here. There were some things done wrong here. The challenges were brought to the ftc fight their competitors. Eric schmidt help them run obamas campaign. On the other side, his competitors did to. I think that you are onto something when you call it crony capitalism launching a federal campaign they are not competing with these people in the market place. When they grind an ax with the government. All in favor of wind power. Going for transporting oil by his railroad line. That kind of thing. Did you find yourself rubbing up against Big Government and having to bend a little . It is always a temptation. You do not want to be stupid by letting them take over the government. If you look at our entire tax system it is riddled. All of that action has distorted the plane field. All Business Owners need to stand back and take a breath. What will we end up with . The latest Net Neutrality situation is also part of this. I think they would be better off saying let stand back and lets not invite the government and. Stuart indeed. You know i am a stickler for good ground. I was challenged on it last week. Impactful is not a word. Janice dean disagrees. Now, she has a leg to stand on. She is next. Stuart did you just say impactful . There is no such word as impactful. Did i really just make up a word . No. I have heard it before. Theres nothing more romantic than a spontaneous moment.

Stuart i confess that i gave janice dean a hard time when she said the word impactful during one of her weather reports. Apparently i was very long. Listen to this. There is certainly such a word as impactful, and i can prove it stuart its in the dictionary. Its in the great repositories of the record of the english language, the ox toford english diction Oxford Stuart in the great repositories oh my goodness [laughter] and he was british. Stuart youve never used the word impactful no. It comes to my lips when im about to say the weather is very its not very good outside. So you have. I want to ask you, in your years of broadcasting, have you not, you know, been live and said something that perhaps was questionable . Stuart i have always attempted to use good grammar on any and all occasions. Okay, wait, though i think we have a video clip. Stuart what . [laughter] if you deflate the ball by two psi, two poundser if square inch, you bring it down two pounds, does that indeed, make a difference tooff it goes to how far, the catchability of it . Oh catchability . Stuart oh i was just making it up as i went along. It works didnt it . It wasnt a word. [laughter] im so glad youre such a good sport because i was telling your producers will this be the last time im on varney . [laughter] stuart two questions for you number one the word party, is it a noun or a verb . Im going to a party. Im partying. Stuart you cant its not a verb. Cant do that. Last one. Whats wrong with the sentence . My mother told me to quickly run to the store. My mother told me to quickly run to the store . I dont think thats correct. Stuart why not . I dont know because youre questioning me about it. Stuart its a split infinitive, girl. I feel like i have to go back to school. You should have, i think, a segment on varney where you do this more off, because its very important. Catchability. Stuart catchability. Thank you very much, indeed, janice. You can come again. This was very impactful. [laughter] stuart you ruined it. Sorry. Stuart no, you didnt, youre all right. Ted cruz announces his president ial run. Up next Stephen Moore hes all about economics gives good advice. Would he does he think that ted cruz would return us to prosperity . Stuart which Political Party has the most political talent . Bench strength. Its on full display as the race for the white house gets under way and in my opinion yes my opinion the republicans are way out front. Im not saying a republican wins in 16, but attractive talent is on the right, not so much on the left. Ted cruz announced today. I think hes just one of the few young the new young faces in the republican party. Rand paul scott walker, theyre two others. All three of them are making a first bid. All three bring ideas and, yes passion to the race. The establishment well represented by jeb bush. Success is the governor of pl, and hes not afraid to take on the big issues like immigration. Theres governor huckabee, governor perry, dr. Ben carson perhaps ohios john kasich, a long list of people. The democrats, a narrower field and, again, in my opinion hess talent. Hillary is the front runner oh, yeah, theres plenty of political talent there, but is that the kind of political talent America Needs in the white house . The boston globe wants senator Elizabeth Warren to oppose hillary not because ms. Warren has great talent but because hillarys scandals may doom her candidacy. As for senator warrens ideas since when has socialism been a winning idea in america . Then theres martin omalley, former governor of maryland. His job was taken by a republican in maryland. And lets not forget Vice President biden, apparently willing to throw his hat in the ring. Republicans must be hoping fervently for a biden gaffeprone candidacy. No when it comes to bench strength the republicans have it the democrats do not. Maybe after eight years of the most leftwing president of all time, endless failure has brought out the talent on the other side of the aisle. I live in hope. Stuart well, why dont we get right to the race for the white house. Senator ted cruz is running for president , made the announcement a couple of hours ago. Listen to this. I believe in you. I believe in the power of millions of courageous conservatives rising up to reignite the promise of america. Ands that is why today i am announcing that im running for president of the United States. [cheers and applause] stuart oh, yeah. Heritage foundations steve moore is with us. All right, steve youre the man who wants oh, sorry i thought you said im going to stuart youre the guy. I was hearing Something Else for a second, you were too. Youre the guy, you want lower tax rates. You want growth. Do you think ted cruz is your guy . Look, i dont have a horse in this race, but i think ted cruz is a great addition to the field. I think the guy has a spine of steel. I think he has, you know, unbendable political principles, and thats something a lot of conservatives who have just been kind of unnerved by this kind of Feckless Congress are really looking for. So i think he will be a very welcome addition. He wants to repeal obamacare move to a flat tax, personal accounts for Social Security i find him very attractive. And i agree entirely with what you just said by the way, stuart. If you look at this field of candidates the republicans are putting out there, people like marco rubio and rand paul and scott walker and jeb bush i would make this point, everyone who is running this time in 2016 is better than anybody who ran for the republicans in 2012. Its a powerful field. Stuart do most of them im not going to say all, but do most of the candidates as we know them are most of them in favor of growth through lower corporate and personal income tax rates . Well, theyd better be, thats why larry kudlow and steve forbes and art laffer and i started the committee to unleash american prosperity because we believe that is the central issue in this campaign. How do we get growth in this 2 slump up to 4 , and ive even heard you talk about 5 growth which i would love to see and i think were capable of. I would say ive talked to almost every one of these republican candidates now, and theyve got that growth message, you know right smack in their head. And they are going to really focus on tax reform. In fact, you know i think youre going to see four, five or six of these candidates, stuart, talking about some version of a flat tax. Remember when steve forbes ran on that 20 years ago. Stuart do you think thats sellable to the american electorate . Yeah, i do. Stuart do you really . Thats a revolution steve. It is a revolution, but heres the point, i dont think americans should play small ball. I think they should be talking about blowing up the tax system starting completely over. Ive said this on your show i bet, stuart, you and i could sit down in half an hour and come up with something that is much more progrowth, more fair and something that the American People that would buy into, get rid of the loopholes, get rid of the special interest carveouts. Yeah, i think the American People are ready for that because they see this tax system is sending jobs abroad. Stuart last one real fast, the boston globe wants Elizabeth Warren to run against hillary. Lets suppose wildly that Elizabeth Warren is elected president of the United States of america. What would that do to the United States economy . [laughter] im not being funny shes the op opposite extreme, shes way out there on the left. I think shes a socialist. What would that do to the economy . Well, it would be negative but, look, weve had barack obama for six years, and hes pretty much a socialist himself, right . Somehow we muddle through. This is a nightmare scenario youre laying out, it is a total night mauer that after eight years nightmare that after eight years of barack obama wed have brent warren. I dont think its going to happen. I think people are looking for the opposite of obama, someone with experience, who beliefs in the Free Enterprise system. This is a business show, why cant we have a president who thinks that business is a good thing that companies are values, that there is value in our company that makes profit . I mean, everybody in this town that im sitting in thinks companies are evil, businesses are evil, profits are evil. Stuart maybe that will change. It sure has to in my opinion. Stephen moore, thanks so much for joining us. Thank you, stuart. Stuart more on the boston globe which is indeed calling for Elizabeth Warren to run against hillary. Thats the headline, boston globe run warren run. Charlie gasparino is here. This looks like youre smiling but it looks like the gips of a beginnings of a serious challenge to hillarys nomination. We should point out youll never see the boston Globe Editorial page invited to the Federalist Society to give chats. Stuart true. We are talking about one of the more far left editorial pages out there in a city that, you know, is pretty far left itself. This is a fantasy on the left. Stuart you discount this completely . Yes. Heres why. Well, you know, the odds are very heavily in her favor, why is that . You have to start raising money. You really have to raise money from corporations. You do need that, that sort of remember, barack obama may have beat up corporations when he got into us a, but ill tell you in 2007, right, when he was gearing up for 2008, early 2007 which would be, you know, time frame sequence about where it is now, he was courting wall street. Paul volcker, dick fold a lot of the big bankers at Goldman Sachs larry fink the guy who runs blackrock, they all had a meeting with him at that place right next to the fox news headquarters in washington johnnys fish its right downstairs. Stuart is that right . They basically raised money for him. Elizabeth warren is not even close to that right now. Stuart listen to what youre saying. Are you saying that corporations actually run these elections . They stuart with that money . They give a lot of money, and you need some of that money. I dont think you can run as a pure populist without any sort of support from wall street, from special Interest Groups on the right. Excuse me from corporate special Interest Groups. I just dont think you can do that. She will not be able to do that and unless Hillary Clintons emails come out with some sort of scandal, shes going to be the president ial nominee for the democratic party. I mean but the left just loves this whole thing. Its like a fantasy. Of its like i think Elizabeth Warren has about as much chance of unseating Hillary Clinton as i do now listen to the this analogy going to del friscos, picking up jennifer aniston, bringing her home and not having my wife kill both of us. [laughter] that is the chance that Elizabeth Warren has to win. Stuart the shows got a friday feel on a monday morning. [laughter] friday, monday stuart theyre close. Gasparino strikes again. Thanks very much, gaspo. I want you to look at the stock price on michael kors. It is up. Now, why is it up . Its got what we call the barrons bounce. Phil roosevelt is here. You wrote about michael kors over weekend. You said you liked it. Monday morning, it goes up. Barrons bounce, why do you like it . Well michael kors has been a hot stock now for a few years, a hot company and a hot stock. The sales have come down, probably half of what they were before they were running at 60 a year sales growth, probably down to the 30 now, and that has scared a lot of the momentum investors out of the stock and left it quite cheap much cheaper than coach on a price to earnings stuart really . Thats interesting. I always think of coach as the old i call it a democratic luxury stock because its handbags and that kind of thing were just in reach. Right. Stuart and then along came kors with maybe a better selection and they took over that role. Youre saying kors is now cheaper on a financial basis than coach . Its stock is cheaper on a pricetoearnings basis. Some of the stuff they sell is actually a lot more expensive than coach. They do the affordable luxury like coach does, but they also have coach thats closer to lvmh territory. Stuart where do you think the stocks going to go to . Probably 25 up over a year. Stuart and you said that . We did. Stuart thats why youve got the barrons bounce. Thank you very much indeed. Thank you stuart. Stuart radioshack is on death watch. Lauren simonetti, in case you missed it. Tell me, what save radioshack . Well, its future will be be decided at bankruptcy auction today. Right now the Hedge Fund Standard general, the p only hope for the 94yearold chains survival. It has teamed up with sprint to save nearly half of radioshacks 4,000 stores and turn them into cobranded sprint stores. Radioshack would feel devices. Standard general says a win on its part will keep 900,000 people working but its plan also relies on being able to cancel much of radioshacks debt. Another option is liquidation. That will produce cash for creditors, so we should find out at the end of the month. Like i said, stuart that hearing is at this hour. Stuart i think radioshack was done in by apple stores beat em true. Stuart its a generational thing, its my generation store, not yours and the internet. Online sales. Yeah, i mean, your right. Youre right. I was hoping that super bowl commercial would have saved them, but it didnt. Stuart thanks so much lauren. Heres what we have the rest of this hour. Pete rose banned from baseball, you know that. You had a lot to say over the weekend about that. 43,000 comments on the Varney Facebook page. If you know anything about social media, thats a lot, and were happy with that. 12 23, well discuss it. We have the actor who plays jesus in bill oreillys book. And up next, kraft singles getting the stamp of approval from a big nutrition group. After the break one nutritionist who says those kraft singles arent even real cheese. The real question that needs to be asked is what is it that we can do that is impactful . What the cloud enables is computing to empower cancer researchers. It used to take two weeks to sequence and analyze a genome; with the microsoft cloud we can analyze 100 per day. Whatever i can do to help compute a cure for cancer, thats what id like to do. The road. It can bring out the worst in people. But the mclass scans for danger. Corrects for lane drifting. And if necessary, it will even brake all by itself. It is a luxury suv engineered to get you there and back safely. For tomorrow is another fight. The 2015 mclass. See your authorized dealer for exceptional offers through mercedesbenz financial services. Stuart were you even going to a starbucks store if you think the race question is waiting more you . Im still shaking my head over this one. Its a rotten business decision. Starbucks is pushing me out the door. Im not even going to go in. So here you have it, starbucks has ended its race together campaign. Howard schultz says this was a scheduled end. I say its because of the backlash that they received. Cheryl casone is here, and she will now be asked for her opinion. Yes. I absolutely think it was because of the backlash. Oh, we were always going to taper off the campaign after one week . That could not have been the plan. They have been really building up to this big event theyve been having Group Meetings around the country with starbucks employees, video from texas in particular talking about race. This was supposed to be a much bigger deal. They have completely backed off of that, and think his statement really does show that from howard schultz, as we just mentioned. Stuart i think we killed it cheryl shall we be honest . We did it. I think this show and the backlash from the american public. [laughter] stuart the Great American public. Yeah, them too. Stuart cheryl, stay there. The academy of nutrition and dietetics gives its coveted kids eat right stamp of approval to kraft singles. Whoa thats not sitting well with some members of the nutrition community. One of them joins us now from las vegas. Here is andi with dieticians for professional integrity. All right andi, list it for me. Whats your objection to kraft singles . The issue isnt so much about kraft singles really although it is not a very healthy product, and when you look at the average american childs diet, they should not be pushed to eat processed cheese. But the issue comes down to the fact that for years now the academy of nutrition and dietetics has had very cozy ties to corporations like cocacola, pepsico, hersheys mcdonalds, kelloggs and general mills. And a lot of dietician including myself, are tired of what should be an organization for nutrition really protecting corporate interests. Stuart really this is part of the processed versus fresh food debate. I think the countrys moving more towards fresh food and away from processed food, and this is part of that debate do you agree with that . Absolutely. Stuart okay. Now, apart from the conflict of interest tell me what is wrong with kraft singles . Because ive got six kids and nine grandchildren and thats the only kind of cheese that they eat. Certainly when they were youngsters. You want to remove that from kids was i a bad parent a bad grandparent for feeding my kids this processed cheaz . Absolutely not. The issue is that dieticians feel that this seal comes across as an implied endorsement, and a product like kraft singles is pretty high in sodium and does not really offer many of the nutrients that most children in the u. S. Are not getting enough of. And this is exactly why dieticians have been extremely upset and in a beta has never happened in a way that has never happened before are really protesting. There is a petition on change. Org that has over 10,000 signatures. Stuart are you in a war against the Big Food Companies . Its not so much that, its really more a battle against our own organization selling out our credential year after year, because what ends up happening is that dieticians are starting to realize that these kind of partnerships ultimately hurt our credibility. Stuart okay. The public and other Health Professionals dont see us as objective nutrition experts. Stuart soother i see your point. I know where youre coming from, and im to some degree on your side. I just wonder, what would you feed a 4yearold instead of kraft singles . If you want to give them cheese what would you give them . Youre asking me if it has to be exceed . Stuart no what would you feed them instead of kraft singles . Well, i would actually feed them real cheese from the sense stuart supposing they wont eat it . Kraft singles is not. Stuart supposing they wont eat it . Give them other foods that contain the same singles stuart do you have children . I do not. Stuart ah. But i counsel a lot of people that do have children. Stuart look, it really does count because a parent really wants to feed their child. They want the child to eat. Its inborn in us, you know . And it really matters that they eat what you put and the great thing is that there are so many other varieties of cheese out there that are more healthful, and theres many foods that contain calcium and vitamin d if that is the main thing stuart im sure my children would have listened to eat spinach and not kraft singles. Thanks for joining us, come again, okay . Thanks for having me. Stuart Tenet Health Care its not doing much today but Tenet Health Care is big mover in the s p 500. Its going to have a joint venture with United Surgical partners, tenet will have the option to buy them over five years. Tenet is up 5 . And then theres pete rose. Ah theres a growing effort to lift his lifetime baseball ban. You, the varney viewer had a lot to say about it on the Varney Facebook page. Would you believe 43,000 comments . By far our most popular post ever. More on rose next. Stuart Wichita State tops kansas, it was a stunning victory over the weekend. Most peoples brackets were busted when villanova lost to North Carolina state, including mine by the way, such as i know about it. Another big upset was michigan states win over virginia according to espn. Out of the 11 Million People who filled out their bracket on their site, not one person has it perfectly correct at this point. Not good. An opinion piece in the wall street journal this weekend said, yeah, its time to forgive pete rose and let him into the bauble hall of fame. We Baseball Hall of fame. We simply asked on our facebook page, should rose be admitted . 43,000 of you and counting responded. All right heres what some of you had to say. First of all mike without a doubt,one of the top three players ever. Isnt it the Baseball Hall of fame, not the good human hall of fame . Good question, good point. Steve adds the hall is for what one does on the field. He did not use steroids to enhance his abilities, he played the game it was meant to be played. But dave disagrees. He says he should not be in the hall of fame. Quote he singlehandedly cost his players a chance to win or even play in a world series. Selfcentered greedy and a cheater. Cheryl, i want to get back to that number, 43,000. We were astonished at that. Is that the power of social ya . Thats incredible because this is a story that hasnt gotten a lot of attention yet the response has been overwhelming on your facebook page. I was looking most of your i viewers support pete rose getting into the hall of fame. And if you lack at the stats look at the stats, theyre making a great point. He played more games, 3,562, got more hits than anybody else ever ever in baseball. Now, why cant whats the rule that he broke, right . Stuart gamble. Cant bet on a game that youre playing in. Well, now youve got all these players using steroids. I mean, any im sorry but any morality in baseball was gone when the steroid scandal broke. Stuart most of our viewers said put him back in put him in not back in. We were just astonished. He was banned from even going to the hall of fame he really became he just got so beaten up and this was 30 years ago. Its time to move on. Thats what your viewers said anyway. Stuart up next, the car that can track your teenagers, how fast theyre going, how far theyre driving, if they get too close to another car. It can even turn down the stereo volume. Is that just a little bit too much parental control . Grind virtually any kind of food waste into an unending source of electrical power for a city . When emerson takes up the challenge its never been done before simply becomes consider it solved. Emerson. If you take multiple medications, a dry mouth can be a common side effect. Thats why theres biotene. It comes in oral rinse spray or gel so theres moisturizing relief for everyone. Biotene, for people who suffer from a dry mouth. Stuart 50 points up on the dow industrials. 18,178. Been sitting there at that level for some time. Still moving a little bit higher. No change for the price of gas since last friday. 2. 42. Where is the cheapest gas in all the land . Tennessee. I want to say on money and the dollar. Cash leaving your up coming here. Pushing up the dollar. Is that accurate . Is that a accurate statement . Absolutely. All talking about them thinking that they euro will ease up even further. They are playing it from a short side. Stuart you are traitors. You are moving second by second on currencies. If the dollar getting stronger in the euro and other currencies getting weaker . Absolutely. Everybody is really selling that euro short. The dollar has gone up quite a bit. Certainly, we are seeing, on the euro side. I would tend to agree with that. Stuart is it bad for the American Economy . I do not really think so. I do think that there will be a time where it will settle down. Markets like to fluctuate back and forth. I think you will see that, i just do not take you will see that real soon. Speech you. Stuart Angela Merkel is having dinner we will see the results. Thank you very much. Now this. Craigslist. It gets a lot of bad press. Users getting robbed or attacked during a transaction. They are trying to fix it. Designated areas outside of polling stations where people can meet safely. This is a brilliant idea on a part of the Police Department to open their doors. Coming and meeting a buyer or seller on craigslist. Stuart however a lot of the attacks have taken place on women who have advertised their bodies on craigslist. They will not be showing up in the lobby of a local police station. There are certain transactions that would not be appropriate. Generally speaking, let me just tell you this, i criticize craigslist for being pretty weak on their safety. They should be doing a lot more in terms of educating eric educating their users. They are not doing an educative approach. It is still a great place for you to be. If the police have a problem with it, too bad. Stuart good point. The chevy malibu has a new feature. I love this. This is the car that i want my kid in. It gives me that control. I think that it is a great idea. We can be tough and our teenage years. You ultimately have the control. What i would not want to hear is that chevy has come out with a technology that would say you have to use it this way. I like that control of it. Stuart that is a new brandnew alltime high. You like the idea of having a choice. Do you think that parents feel that a need that level of control . Parents still do not quite know how bad it is with their kids behind the wheel texting and driving. This has to do with discipline behind the wheel. There is more to life than just rolling around the car without any rules. I think that this is a huge move we have to draw in some limits. Technology is leading into an area that is unsafe for a lot of people. Stuart okay. A self driving car. Driving from san francisco. Gimmick. A guy sitting behind the wheel the whole time. Stuart i did not know that that was legal. A self driving car going coast to coast. Technology does work. Stuart they are our public roads. It is like cruise control. It is not a big deal. And legitimate way for them. Turning onto a hole at the press sitting there with our cameras on them. Great. I think that there is a lot of innovation going on. This is a car i do not have my eye on. Stuart it gets rid of the texting and driving problem. Definitely headed towards the right direction. I will enhance the app. A super fast pace. What do you mean, you have to drive your car yourself . I think we are headed there. Stuart hello riley. Killing jesus made into a movie. We have the actor that played jesus. He is next. Nothing has been forgot 10. Edward jones. This is shirley speaking. How may i help you . Oh hey, neill, how are you . How was the trip . With nearly 7 million investors hes right here. Hold on one sec. Youd expect us to have a highly skilled call center. Kevin, neill holleys on line one. Ok, great. And we do. Its how edward jones makes sense of investing. Nicole i have your fox business. Period the Dow Jones Industrial average up 65 points. 2112. The russell 2000 hitting a record alltime high. You can see windstream. At t and front tier among those.

A few stops later, and it looks like big ollie is on the mend. It might not seem that glamorous having an old pickup truck for an office. Or filling your days looking down the south end of a heifer but. I wouldnt have it any other way. Lo ok at that, i had my best month ever. And earned a shiny new office upgrade. I run on quickbooks. Thats how i own it. Stuart we showed you earlier the russell 2000 hitting an alltime high. And existing home sales. Characterize the report. Good or bad. I think that it is a sign of more trouble. Prices yearoveryear are up substantially. We should be clear here. Also firsttime buyers, 29 . That number is not catching up. Renters not motivated to become buyers. 3. 7 . We are not getting the numbers. Investors trying to back out of the Housing Market now. Firsttime homebuyers not eating in. Where will we go with this . Stuart cheryl, good stuff. Thank you. The role of a lifetime. Playing jesus in killing jesus stuart we are joined now by the man who played the role of jesus. May i ask were you born and raised a christian . No. I was born and raised a muslim. How do you approach this role . First of all jesus is message more than mohammed. It is an honor for me to be in this position. I was not in any way as in not her, first of all that is my job to commit to the role work artless. Jesus was no exception and not sense. As someone that was raised muslim i have the opportunity to tell the story. In no way would i be walking in trying to change that was trying to promote anything opposite of that. We all have the same guide essentially. You can forget that. They think that god is different from. It is just a different name. Look at the finished product. Is there anything that you would change in the way you handle that role . Anything you would change at all . There is always something that you want to change. You just have to let go. It is probably, it cannot get better than this for me. Stuart how do you like this role . When i got it, i was so excited. I love juices jesus and i love what he stood for. Muslim or christian or not i think that it transcends all of that. Stuart have you shifted your religious thinking at all . Jesus was even if you look at his teachings. Love your enemy which we have a hard time doing. It is interesting how people are so passed and it about jesus. It tends to be some of them that seem to be close minded. It was because of jesus that i became more inclusive and more open. Me being cast as a muslim is an amazing opportunity for us to build bridges and connect with each other. Stuart are you ever concerned that after it airs we will see how that goes. One lady did not believe that it was me. She played my mother. She said i still do not believe that that was you. Stuart congratulations on a well played role. Stuart jamie colby. The star of the new fox business show. Strange inheritance. You have to look at this.
