Responsibility and committed to solving the problems in and on the other hand has the supposedly magnificent state and smart bureaucrats redesigning it from the top down. Host when you say highen highend y. Am not the kinds hayek do you think had a different definition of conservatism than Ronald Reagans definition . Guest very much on hayek was talking about the tendency in europe to use government to really control and dictate and redesign peoples lives and of course in europe even today a liberal is closer to what we would call a conservative. Its Classical Liberal so one of the things that is happening in the United States is how the left steals our best works. They still deliver when they stole community and i mention im a Community Organizer i get jeers from the crowd but thats who we are. That is what the Boston Tea Party was. Host you appropriate saul walinskis rule for solidarity. I wanted to walk through some of them. The first one is dont hurt people the title of the book. E
Republicans initial offer, having mitt romney be president. [ laughter ] there is that. Good morning, everyone. Its tuesday, october 8th. Welcome to morning joe. With us on set, we have the former Communications Director for george w. Bush, Nicole Wallace. Karl bernstein. And in washington, White House Correspondent for bloomberg news, julianna goldman. And Pulitzer Prize winning columni columnist, Eugene Robinson, along with willie, joe, and me. So were going to show these polls. Wow. Well start there. Youre surprised by those. Ive got to say, its the blame is more evenly spread out than it usually is in these matters. Really interesting. Im very interested to see what everybodys take. Americans are increasingly unhappy with the handling of the Government Shutdown by all sides, as joe alluded to. According to a Washington Post abc news poll, 70 disapprove of how republicans have handled budget negotiations. 61 disapprove of the democrats. And 51 are unhappy with president obamas role.
Object to the existence of a quorum. We dont have to debate the her its of it. Theres an open question about the consequence. Okay. A professor at my law school, Washington College of law and an expert in constitutional law and many other things. Runs the sjd program there and an expert in issues related to race and the Supreme Court. We did have one really important race related case this term thats kind of gotten buried and lost in the shuffle. Maybe decided earlier. But it tells us a fair amount i think about where the court is at on the questions and relates to other cases that you can discuss, im sure. The schutte case, the voters of michigan announced they were going to change the constitution to forbid affirmative action, including particularly racebased affirmative in Higher Education and some other things and had the consequence of overruling a prior question saying the Michigan Law School could take race into account for admissions. And so, the court was presented with a ques
Start talking about this value equation. So to further comment on the economic realities, one of my responsibilities is to balance the budget for the medical school. While we get in 40 million in external funding last year, for each dollar that comes in, we spent about 25 cents and were very efficient in extra dollars that had to support the Research Enterprise and thats to mr. Bartons point and the of c. M. S. Of increased funding for the n. I. H. With every single one of our guests today across all political backgrounds, all fields, all agencies and everything but its really not just a matter of lets just increase the budget of the n. I. H. And or the f. D. A. Because its not linear. Its not like purchasing things. Its not like purchasing warships or Something Like that. You spend x amount of money and you get y amount of cures. Thats why these discussions are difficult. It is, number one, the amount of funding. We still are the top we have the biggest commitment of any country in th
Admissions. And so, the court was presented with a question of whether the states voters could essentially ban affirmative action in that fashion. Uhhuh. And so, youre exactly right that this is sort of following up from the opinion 11 years ago, the gruder decision up holding the constitutional of race conscious admissions at the university of michigan. Whats important to keep in mind is that it is technically not an opinion thats about affirmative action in education across the board. So, it does nothing to alter the constitutionality across the board of those kinds of policies so it hasnt changed the holding of the gruder decision 11 years ago. It said that under the equal protection clause colleges and universities could create narrowly tailored Race Relations programs and also the probably opinion that got maybe more publicity last year, fischer versus university of texas because it was decided at the very end of the term. That was looking at the constitutionality of the universit
