it more than ever. that is all the time we have left. thank you for being with us. let not your heart be troubled. the news continues. greta is next on the record. we ll see you tomorrow night. greta: tonight they re on fire. cpac starts with a bang. there s nothing on this green earth that a liberal progressive fears more than a black american who wants a better life and a smaller government. i remain haunted by the experience of the 2012 campaign where it seemed that every day president obama would go out in every speech and say, we don t want to good back to the policies of the past that got us into this mess. it was the left that got us into this mess. that s the fact. look around the world today. they re not copying the former soviet union, not even copying china. america is extraordinary, not bus of who we are but because of what we do.
i would tell that you, as we look towards unleashing those opportunities, one of the places that we can unleash opportunities is making sure that we worked on things that expanded the footprint of providing health insurance that s not through the federal government. greta: are you saying you would like health care available to people, but it s the way that the obamacare, for lack of a better word, is not a good way to do it? is that what you are saying? well, i would certainly say that when you look at the impact of obamacare, in south carolina, we will see that a young entrepreneur getting started will see because of obamacare, his health insurance rate guess up 61% on average, is what i understand. what we can recognize is that we will break the link between a patient and a doctor. so what actually happens, something that may have had some good design as a part of the philosophy has in implementation, caused great concern, it distorts the market. it is not act yourially sound
appears at cpac in his national political clear, and helped launch a movement, and there s sort of a conservative renaissance going on right now of its own kind, and it s a good thing to be part of. greta: straw poll, is that something significant? i don t know. straw polls are fun to conduct and look at. we re still self years several years away from the next presidential a lex cycle so i m not sure how much but it s entertaining. how come there s not a lot of focus on waste and fraud? there s discussion of spending or tacks, and once in a while you hear closing loopholes. there s so much waste and forecast. they just scoop up a lot of money. 82 or 85 billion in sequestration funds. i could find it just going through the gao reports. you spark that s why we as conservatives focus on the sheer size and scope of the government. the best way to root out waste, fraud, and abuse, is to limit the size of government, and to make sure you don t just raise
sometimes we start off in very difficult places. it s so important for us to remind people it s not where you start. it s the progress you make, and for me what learned along the way was if you have a strong mother mine did a good job of providing me discipline and then meeting someone who believes in your future and can excavate the necessary parts and ingreedents to your success, you can put those two together and create a very important and bright future and that s what my mentor did, along with me mother. when you re talking to kids in high schools and middle schools and feel like the life has passed them by because of difficult situations, you have to stop and walk in their shoes a couple of steps and then talk to them about the fact that no matter the circumstances that surround you, the greatness comes from within, and when you take it from within you control your destiny and that s a very important message and it works. greta: today at cpac, said something that obama ka
get in the inner city? if you went to detroit. i think the receptions i get i ve gone back to my own neighborhood in atlanta advice very well. that s where i came from. it would be different if i dodd not have athlete background or experience. my parents were born in 1920, 1931, in south alabama and south georgia, growing up they were democrats and voted for john lewis, and i told them that when i got to capitol hill. but they raised my with conservative prims and faith conservative principles and faith and family and god. one of the first things president obama dade, he cancelled the school voucher program for kids in washington, dc. that takes away their opportunity. a kid like me, growing up in inner city, you just cut them off at the kneecaps. you think about washington, dc now, 25% is on food stamps. greta: a bro predominately democratic voting population. the problem is we have not taken that message into the communities, like detroit,
