run and we understand that the decision will come sometime in early september, i think that s the new time line. so that s been pushed. but i also think we know that he s having some conversations with those who are close to him. even if some of it is just listening to people who wanted to run. and he s not ruling it out. so i think a few months ago in recent months you might have said i really thought it was unlikely that he would mount a run. but he isn t ruling it out. nor should he if he s looking at the polls. hillary clinton in the most recent quinnipiac poll 57% say they don t trust here. 52% said they don t think that she cares about their problems. and you look at how biden is registering and it s exactly the flip side. six in ten americans say they trust him and that they believe he cares about his problems. governor as somebody who has thought about running for president in the past is it too late for somebody like joe biden to get into the race? not really. i don t thin
look, no. there s not. but he is incredibly respected. he s a beloved figure in our party. the reality is he s not so different from hillary clinton from the point of view of the rising energy in the party. the clinton party was a very pr pro-incarceration party, anti-wall street, the new party, elizabeth warren, bernie sanders, black lives matter, less incarceration, more regulation, and they hate the triangulation and want authenticity. there s just no there s no hunger for him. do you think he could be a credible candidate if he got the nomination? i think if hillary clinton doesn t win the nomination, she s going to lose it to somebody like joe biden or john geary. reminds me of 1968 when you had senator mccarthy kick johnson out but it was hubert humphrey who got the nomination. it is i think too soon to say whether he is going to mount a
i was trained to look at the facts, look at the evidence, arrive at a conclusion, tell people my conclusion and the facts, and quite a number of people today who kind of start with the conclusion and they say, let s make the facts fit the conclusion. and some of my work as a from my work as a journalist i know there s a lot of people in the kind of sensible center, as i look to think of them. that are completely plunked into reality, and they can t make sense of it. i m dealing with the world as it is, people tend to put that into pigeon hole. you re left or right. i m neither. i m telling it as it is and connecting with people that live life. host: your last two books you used the tomorrow follow the evidence. . guest: yes, that s right. indeed, sometimes the evidence takes us into places which are uncomfortable. it tells us things which are going on which we don t mike to know about because they frighten us, they perplex us or whatever, but you start with the evide
i have the opportunity now to do double duty, not only to call you to order, but also to introduce to you the fourth panel of today s program. i would just like to say a word to you about how we designed this whole thing, and how we wound up on this note. nobody has really questioned the idea that most of what we talked about have been battles in virginia, more than half all the activity of the civil war was in virginia, and a good deal of it in that 100 miles between the fall line on the potomac and fall line at richmond. it started here and ended here. for those of you that wished we did more around the western theater, next year perhaps. but we also, my program committee and i discussed how we were going to wind this program up, and we thought it would be wise to do two things. we are in the valley, actually, we re in one of two valleys. i ll explain that in a minute, and that has a geographical significance for us, but also did for the civil war in 62, what happened was
where two of the branches placed limits on one branch and the stooulgz constitution survived and the country moved on and it s a good lesson for all of us. and it s something the kids should know about. they should know about their rights and they should know the constitution is in place to protect them when one of the branches of government oversteps its boundaries. thank you. extensive examples of watergate evidence including documents, oral histories, audio recordings and television clips are available to explore online at nixonlibrary.gov. this week on the civil war, two historians talk about the shennendoah campaigns of 1862 and 1864, which involved some of the fiercest fightings of the war. this is the fourth in a series of sessions we re airing. the theme of this year s gathering was leadership and generalship in the civil war. the virginia military institute in lexington, virginia, hosted the conference and this portion is about an hour. i have the opportunity now
