on that line there. i thought it was a fascinating piece because it really is what you guys highlight is okay we know she s been the favorite. of course that s been true for a long time. but it s much bigger than that in certain ways. because the stakes are extraordinarily high for the party. there are these weaknesses that her pseudo-candidacy has been going over for a year or two. the future for the democrats is not arriving quickly. they re losing the middle class voters. their party organizations have trouble raising money. their super pacs can t raise money. and there are just all kinds of problems that need to be solved and could only be solved by her among the candidates that might run. the way i took this article is rather than a kind of bottom-up sort of reinvigoration of the democratic party s politics from local offices and
us. mr. orr, so, what does it mean today if i live in downtown detroit and i call 911 this morning as compared to a week ago, now that you ve cleared bankruptcy? does it mean it s more efficiency? do they come more quickly? does the fire department report more quickly? what happens? yeah, actually, those figures in terms of reporting are approaching national averages of like 18 minutes. it means that services, two-thirds of the civil side of the city s budget are really public safety budgets. so, yes, they do come quicker. we have more ambulances on the road. we have police response times down. we have murder clearance rates up. so, you see those things, particularly in the central business district downtown, but you still have to push out reinvigoration and redevelopment in the neighborhoods. and what about pension benefits for retirees? were they cut back? are their pension restored or frozen or what happened there? yeah, we were fortunate enough to get $816 million between a
congress who made a difference in washington. i think it s made a change for good, for limited government, for free enterprise, opportunity. look at what is going on. we have the vibrant debate of ideas in our party. this is a good thing. this means that we are becoming the party of ideas again. i see that as nothing but a good thing. we may disagree from time to time on tactics. but we don t disagree on the big picture. we don t disagree on the outcome we want, which is a reinvigoration, improving people s lives, renewing the vigor of this country and we want to make the economic boundaries. we re tired of settling with slow growth, high poverty, poor performance in america. we may disagree technically from here and there on how to get to that objective but we share the same principles and objective and we re having vigorous

a good idea i think it fits into the overarching approach of don t trump towards foreign policy issues meantime we know that there are other actors other countries that have a lot of stake ere south korea the u.s. is ally and on the north korean side their ally china neither of whom are at the table given that can anything really be achieved i think with seeing is the denuclearization question and maybe some kind of combination between the united states and north korea but this is only starting part of anything what could be accomplished or will what would be will be accomplished in singapore will be will be embedded or has to be embedded into a regional framework and take into consideration the security interests of soft grijalva japan of china and. russia as well so one way or the other will seize ground of reinvigoration of the six party talks which have died to two thousand and nine all the peace and dormant since two thousand and one so it s
