instead of serving in vietnam. there were big questions about lies that were told that got us into war and that turned out to be a media narrative that was not true. well, there was a war going on. americans were concerned about twhafs going on what was going on in the middle east. i got in the race on a draft because john kerry had operation for prostate cancer and we diplomat have any veterans. so a lot of people came to me and said you have to run. so i did run. it was a great experience. i didn t compete in iowa. john kerry spent many, many years preparing for this run in new hampshire and iowa. when he put his personal money in december and when a guy it
that s not going to be stopped. if trump wins iowa, we ll all be wearing combovers, that will be it, that will be the race. i won t be wearing a combover. fair enough. [ laughter ] part of what you have to realize about the way this is going to play out is that the first four states have less importance and less rl vance this cycle than any other cycle for republicans. so there s a lot of maneuvering amongst all the candidates to play after march 1 and into the calendar. what s interesting and we began this segment by wondering where s the establishment. are they anti-trump or anti-cruz? trump opened up the canadian birther issue, robert. what was amazing is watch this little montage we put together of republicans jumping on that trump bandwagon. watch. from ted s standpoint and from the party s standpoint, he had to solve this problem because the democrats will sue him. i find it odd that senator ted cruz did not renounce his dual canadian citizenship until 2014 when i
eligible, you know, to be prime minister of canada. i m not a constitutional scholar on that. but i think it s worth looking into. . [ laughter ] am i the judge? you re the attorney. okay, i ll be the judge. i want judge judy to do this. robert, ted cruz is now very concerned about this. in fact, he addressed this again last night. they ve released birth certificates of his mother. here he is last night in iowa. by virtue of being born to my mother in calgary i was a citizen by birth. you know what the american people are interested in? who is prepared to be commander in chief? and i recognize that there are candidates in the field that don t want to talk about those issues and they want to instead encourage the good people of the media to go down rabbit trails and engage in circus sideshows. somebody got under cruise s skin. that was the first time i ve seen him less optimistic on the trail.
see a path to the nomination for bernie sanders once he leaves new hampshire. i don t see it. i want to remind you that there was a clinton that didn t compete in iowa and lost new hampshire. i know. and wound up with the nomination. he waited i believe it s the longest any democratic nominee went without winning a primary until he won the georgia primary. in that case what ben aga ginsburg said about the republican. write off iowa and new hampshire and wait for the big states. it means the democrats will be sweating buckets about what this means for clinton s popularity. she s not going to lose iowa. i m putting my it s interesting here. bernie sanders is starting to act like a candidate who wants to win and here s what the tell was for me. he jumped on the bill clinton stuff this trump brought up. here s his answer. look, hillary clinton is not bill clinton. but bill clinton did i think we can all acknowledge was totally, totally, totally
running for president. i truly believe he is eligible, you know, to be prime minister of canada. i m not a constitutional scholar on that. but i think it s worth looking into. .
