we just saw bob craft from the new england patriots entering the cathedral. we are seeing people get off busses. this is really the first state funeral since 2006. it is very rare to see an assemblage like this in this nation's capital. >> 12 years since we said farewell to an american president. we have had. the question is how long will it last. but we have had a remarkable show of bipartisan ship, respect for tradition, respect for history and respect for this president to his family and i believe we have smarter people than i at the table. and history is growing to appreciate even more. if you think back to those days, we live in an age now where every morning there are 10 or 12 tweets that disrupt this town.
