Can they get to the substance . Can they get to more of the substance . Can they move away from emails . Can they not make this about Hillary Clintons character or is that what they want the hearing to be about . There is going to be a label at the end and is it about character or what the role of the secretary of state is was and should be. Could security improvements be made in advance of future scenarios like this and talking before the break with secretary of clinton and what would they know about real time responses when you have a consulate that is being over run.

Yorba linda california stephen hess talks about the relationship between nixon and his onetime adviser, Daniel Patrick moynihan. This is a little under an hour. [inaudible conversations] good afternoon. My name is jonathan and i am the professor of communications. Welcome to the president ial library on the occasion of the president s 100 september day. Before we start am i just want to say that todays a free admission day. So i encourage you to visit the white house right across the way. Take that in visit the galleries to learn about this topic and more about the president of the United States. Stephen hess is our nixon legacy lecturer today. He joined president nixon for his 1962 california gubernatorial debate. It was somewhat of a political odd couple because you had moynahan coupled with president nixon, obviously a republican.

Island when my father was recruited to work at a Textile Factory there. My parents, like the parents of those who might be eligible for deferred action under the president s executive authority, came here in pursuit of the American Dream for their children.

Because her mother isabel who is also here today should qualify under this new Deferred Action Program. Every daughter needs their mother. And our nations laws should support Strong Families rather than rip them apart. What is truly at stake here today is the fight for the sole of our nation. Are we going to continue ripping parents away from their children .

Senator Richard Shelby, good to have you with us senator. Thank you, lou. Lou this is unexpected. Senator bob menendez amongst those. He said clearly a week ago that the president sounded at times as if his talk points were from tehran is now lined up with the president. What do you make of it. I think its obama democratic politics. I would hope that we would c
