CSPAN2 Book TV April 5, 2014

I will close, my book taxifornia is not optimistic about the future of california but the issues and problems, this is no more relevant for everyone but you young people because you represent the future and dont want to live in a society, all these local governments and all these local Government Services are completely change amid retirement programs. It needs to be reformed and people need to understand it and we need to reach out to uneducated, and informed people and make some informed. So we can change our great state and move in the right direction. I want to thank everybody for the opportunity. [applause] we are also seeing people after today, this moment and across afghanistan, people who are waiting for a voter card and despite 21 or 22 million voter cards floating around in a country with 11 to 12 million illegible borders, there are still long lines of women in other cities who want to have access to a voter card which is an indication of the buildup of enthusiasm among the population. We should not judge the afghan elections by the same judge by which we judge aaron elections. 200 years since democratic abolition. This is a democracy in its infancy. If this election does produce a credible result will be the first hand off of power in afghanistan history. We want to be careful not to rush to judgment of the afghan people. It is their judgment to make whether the ultimate outcome is legitimate and incredible. I dont think we want to be secondguessing that issue at any step along the way. The absence of International Observers or what i should really say is a drawdown in the number of International Observers that will be present will have a psychological effect on the afghans, it will have an impact on how the International Community abuse it so the reduction in numbers, i am not trying to gloss over that fact but the truth is it is not going to make a huge difference. There are enough International Observers there to do the job and the real story here is this is an afghan election being undertaken pursuant to afghan institutions and afghan observers are going to be the first line of defense in ensuring a good election.
