Thank you. You are watching the tv on cspan2 with top Nonfiction Book and authors every weekend. Book tv, television for serious readers. Secretary clinton, lets talk about the book what happened. You write the first warning sign was North Carolina. Walk us through that evening. Yes, well it was a poor that in North Carolina coming in pretty quick succession.

Friday the 13th. I hope yours was spooky or nice. So bear with me while i go through some front matter for a couple of minutes. Number one, please silence your cell phones, obviously.

And youll get a sixmong trial membership, which is really, really convenient
