Of our ancestors have come here as immigrants. wear country of immigrants. the united states of america should not be building walls. we should be building bridges and allow people in. it is the foundation of our society. but we also should do everything we can, at the border, to secure the borders with the best technology available, which we have in this country, and not allow bad people in. but the politics on both sides, the far right and the far left, have used this as a weapon to politicize the situation. when the vast majority of all of americans want an immigration bill that is sensible. this can be fixed, but not with a broken system where the extreme left and the extreme right will not give the people what they want. is that is, again, why i m here tonight and believe so strongly that the system is so broken. let s get to our next question on another key issue that can be very divisive, in terms of how you tackle it. and that s climate change. ....
And it s not only testimony we re seeing that blew up a cathedral a couple of days ago, that killed americans in syria, it s like walking away from a fire that s still smoulderring. facts matter. the or area that the president has been using his tweets to mock the facts is climate change. this is serious. this will ultimately be i think strategically something that will have enormous impact in the country and around the world. to continue to mock it, this is going to happen. this will not look good when a lot of the people who are now supporting him, they and their children and their children s children pay this outside price for simply being missing in action on the climate change issue. these mocking tweets will not ....

Talking about driverless tars and new technologies that they can use and frankly, people s tastes and what cars they want to buy changes a lot, too. i m really bullish on the u.s. auto industry right now. i think they have a bright future. gm is investing billions and billions in new technologies and new factories over the next few years. i don t think this is a dire warning. it s the natural course of events. i want to ask you about the different topic. last night, about the government s climate change report that was released. i want to quote what you said. you said we have created a climate change complex in this country with billions of dollars at stake. a lot of people are getting rich off the climate change issue. one of the scientists who wrote a part of that report released responded. i want to give you a listen. we are going to pay zero dollars to write this report. my salary would have been the ....
