else. however we do feel there are policies that help american citizens. we have been talking about those for a long tim and continue to push and advocate for those policies. does the president still seek sh schumer. i think if he is willing to do that on vetting we ll welcome his support on that. john? thanks a lot, sarah. the president was asked a little earlier when meeting with cabinet about the possibility of sending this terror suspect to the detention facility at guantanamo bay, cuba. and he said he indeed is open to that. does the president believe he has authority as commander in chief to sent this to gitmo. that s my first question. and what advantages does the president see in sending this terror suspect to guantanamo bay, cuba? look, the point he was making is he supports or would support that but wasn t necessarily advocating for it but would
