Unilateral war, which is the impression most people get from this current administration. Thank you. No question i guess. So well just move right on here. Maam. Yeah. Hi. Marisol morales. Followup question to the gridlock and the word compromise being a fourletter word in washington, d. C. How do you feel about term limits for congress . Ive always been an advocate for term limits. Its just my personal believes. Just as im for non partisan redistricting. I think people spend too long in politics. And i dont know what the number is. Let it be ten years or whatever it might be. I just think listen, if you look at my career, ive done 30 Different Things in my whole career. I just think its important always to try and recruit, get new blood, fresh blood involved, someone to come in with new ideas, and you can say doing something too long, you just dont have that same vigor that you had when you started. So ive always been an advocate for term limits. People need to move on do something else. Serve, be a public servant. Which i think is great. But there are a lot of other things you can do in your life and i think its time to bring some fresh ideas. Anything you do in life, youre not going to be as excited about ten years or 20 years after than when you started the first couple years. I support term limits. And i think by have time for one or two im under term limits. Im the only governor in america who has one fouryear term limit. They asked me about it all the time. Im fine with it. I can get a lot done in four years. Youre focused. Four years, boom, get it done. All right. Get it done. Lets get two more questions. This and then this. Thank you very much. Governor mcauliffe, thank you for your time. I live in the clarendon area. Constituent as well. When youre talking about having the Insurance Coverage, i always get more into does Insurance Coverage translate into better health, Better Outcomes for citizens. I know in california, for instance, i dont know what the numbers would be exactly for virginia but theyve had a large increase in their expansion participants, people that are enrolled. But they havent seen a translation, an increase in the number of doctors. Oftentimes theres a gap there. Do you have any sort of assessment of what that means for it . Since you mentioned the Rural Health Care area, i believe virginia has some rather stringent certificate of need regulations. If you want to do additional are you interested in doing reforms on that front to maybe improve on the supply side, making it easier for hospitals to expand . They will think this is a planted question. I just have a bill thats passing through the General Assembly as a certificate of need. We are reforming the certificate of need which has needed to be done for a long time to allow more access for more folks to come in, to have more competition. I think that always is a good thing. I think on your Health Question no question the healther your workforce is and i mean lets be clear here. Folks understand this. These 400,000 virginians today, now, if they get sick where are they going . Theyre going to an emergency room. Thats happening as we speak. The point i used to make to the business community, who do you think is paying for that . You are. But youve now paid twice. Youve already paid through the aca taxes. Thats done. Youre now paying twice. These folks are not not getting care. Theyre going to Emergency Rooms and places like that and totally tying up the whole Health Care Delivery system. I dont blame them. They have no other option. But if youre a mother with a sick child, youre going to do everything you humanly possibly can do to make sure your child gets health care. Thats what were trying to do with a lot of these folks. Remember in the 400,000, these are working folks. I mean, if you dont have any income, youre already on the medicaid, youve got that. Were talking about the gap here. They make too much to get medicaid here. But they dont make enough to have a high deductible or a high premium. Theyre in the gap. Theyre working. And when i talked about the folks having two or three jobs, doing Home Health Care, a lot of these folks are Home Health Care providers. Thats tough work. Driving and taking care of an invalid in somebodys home. Driving, working two or three jobs, they dont get to see their kids at all. This is the community that im talking about. To provide them with the health care, it would be lifechanging for them. It will be better for their health. Better for their whole outlook. And its important. We should be doing this. As i say, weve already paid for it. And in west virginia, theyre now getting that care paid for somehow by virginia, because weve paid into the big pot. It doesnt make any sense. So, yeah, you want a Healthy Workforce. Jobs is my whole issue. Jobs, jobs, i talk about this every day. Were doing it, its working. Part of my pitch is youve got to have a Healthy Workforce. This is part of that. In addition to the economic driver of 2. 5 billion coming back through my economy, its having a Healthy Workforce i can convince a ceo i went to china twice last year, tremendous success. The largest deal ever done by a Chinese Company, greenfield, ever done in the history of china. I just opened up a factory, brought another Chinese Company back, a factory that had been shut for years and years in appomattox, hardadmit area in virginia. Been closed for years. We are reopening that plant with chinese investors. Youre going to love this. Reopened this plant. First deal in 44 years. Reopen it, were going to manufacture pollutioncontrol devices, and guess what. After manufacture, were shipping them back to china and selling it to them. Let me tell you, that is a new virginia economy. But a Healthy Workforce. And im just getting warmed up. I think were actually out of time. Oh it seems like a perfect note to end on. Governor mcauliffe, i want to thank you, i want to thank all of you for coming. Its been a traffic conversation today. And were very appreciative. Thank you very much. Thank you, susan.

Florida debate expected to get under way next week on the nomination to replace eric holder. If confirmed she would be the first female African American attorney general. Her nomination was approved on february 26th by the Senate Judiciary committee. The vote was 12 to 8 with three republicans and 9 democrats voting to confirm. See the senate live on our companion network cspan2. This week cspan is in New Hampshire for road to the white house coverage of several candidates. Tonight beginning on cspan well take you a house party in dover, New Hampshire with jeb bush bush. On saturday just before noon live on cspan, wisconsin governor scotter walk irin concord. And sunday night senator ted cruz at the annual Lincoln Reagan dinner. Up next, the conversation focused on violence in countries and region instability. Barbara Barbara Barbara bodine takes part. I just returned from libya and i cant emphasize enough that this is a conflict thats reached really dire proportions. Since the civil war started, you know, last year in may, about 2500 people have lost their lives. That may seem is a paltry sum compared to syria. But this is a small population in this country. And the other ripple effects have been quite dire. Massive refugee flows. The plummeting of Oil Production. And then most recently as weve seen the growth of the islamist in Islamic State in libya. We can walk back the back to the nato and failure to assist the Libyan Government but i think what were reel living is the aftershock of gaddafis divided rule policy. That is civil war that reflected his 40 year rule of tierney. The way he gutted institutions, the way he played communities off against one another. And i think obviously the biggest failing of the Transitional Government period after the fall of gaddafi was the absence of a government that could project its authority that had the means to enforce its rule, that had a mo nopization on force. So were talking about the cohesive army and police. And led to the proliferation of the my militias we hear so much about. One based in tolbrook and the other faction based in the tripoli tripoli. Unrecognized. And this distinction between islam and non islam is really a simplification. Were talk act multiple communities and ideological and ethnic and town based communities that have banded together against common enemies. It is a incredibly complex civil war. If i was to point to one dividing line in libya that i see is sufficiently explanatory that helps us understand this conflict, it is really the split between the old order the old officer class t old tech no cats the remnants of the other regime and the younger what i could call the revolutionary camp. Some are islamists. Some are brotherhood. Some ties to al qaeda. But i think that is the real dividing line. Where we are stuck right now is in a vicious cycle of mutual demonization and wild exaggeration. On the one hand you have the camp in the east that is led by general heftar, there is an excellent profile of him in the new yorker this week. That is using the counterterrorism card to paint his domestic opponents, the islamists as terrorists. And on the other side i was in tripoli on the other side. And you have this camp saying this is the return of the conflict of the deep state. We dont want the all officer core coming back. And the heftar is gaddafi part two. And i think one development weve seen is the fragmentation of authority on both sides. We speak about to two camps. The dawn camp in the west. The dignity camp in the east. These are really loose koemgs of the mill smas and they are fragmenting. And on the one hand that fragmentation is encouraging because it allows you to identify moderates you can peel off and bring into a dialogue and that is whats happening now with the u. N. Sponsored peace talks. But at the same time that is worrisome because you have spoiler. So just as the u. N. Talks are under way, you have the islamists carrying out an air strike on the zintan airport yet yesterday and is very worry some and threatens the peace talks. Let me say a little about the rise of isis. The idea of libya as the base as a haven for extremism is not new. It existed under gaddafi with the city of derna that provided many volunteers to iraq and syria iraq and afghanistan. You know, after the revolution you had the growth of Al Qaeda Affiliated groups. And indeed general heftars campaign was to routeot out those groups. Think what you have is not the defeat of those groups but rather their dispersal and mutation. And this is what ear seeing in isis. Isis is really peeling away a lot of members of these older groups that had affiliations through al qaeda. You had influx of volunteers that went to iraq and syria to fight with isis. Libyans that went and last spring and summer. And you have had isis spread to all three of libyas major provinces. And of course they have conducted some very high profile attacks against Corinthia Hotel and most recently tragic killing of egyptian cops. Let me talk about policy options. One thing that makes this so confounds is were faced with a terrorist problem in libya that is em pedbed bem edded in a complex civil war. There are two competing factions and we face this in iraq and syria and yemen is what partner do we assist on the ground . How do woe work with forces on the ground . There is the danger that if we provide assistance to one faction that assistance will be used politically against opponents in the silly war. Where are we at right now with resolving this conflict . You had the United Nations came out i think today and said if these peace talks next week dont resolve themselves, lead to some resolution, there is a real possibleility of a u. N. Resolution. And we may be leading towards that possibility. My conversations with u. S. Policy makers i think what the u. S. Is trying to is persuade more factions of the down coalition, the islamists in the west to move towards a Peace Agreement with the tolbrok government. First is a cease fire. There has to be a policy of non interference. The egyptians are conducting air strikes but my sense and my opinion is these are unhelpful. They are going after camps in the east. But what its having what its doing is having a polarizing effect on the silly war. Egyptian intervention is not helpful in terms of resolving the broader political conflict. I think the u. S. Has a number and the International Community has a number of sort of coercive measures they can use to try to force this conflict to an end. One of them is as asset freeze on Libyas Central Bank reserves or oil funds. Again, both sides in this conflict ironically, both the Dawn Coalition and the Dignity Coalition are acting oil funds of the they are drawing from in pot of money to fuel the conflict, to pay their militias. The idea is you cutoff that stream of revenue, freeze the assets. Put sanctions on certain individuals who are known to be attacking civilian facilities and that will somehow end the conflict. Again, it is a risky hypothesis. There is a lot of operational questions. Because most of the Central Bank Assets are held in europe. And my sense is that the europeans are a little reluctant to do that because of blow back in libya. The question of a u. N. Intervention force, this is often heralded as Silver Bullet you know, send in the u. N. Again there are questions about its mandate. Who would pay for such a force . Where it would deployed in libya. Theres been questions about numbers of troops you would null need to secure key installations or key areas. Talking about tripoli or benghazi, combined they have population of 3 million. And by some calculations you would need about 30,000 troops to actually secure those areas. So again a u. N. Resolution of Intervention Force is not the panacea. My hope and ill just conclude on a guardedly optimistic note. I just got back from the city of misrata, which is the central port city in the west that fuels the most powerful forces on the dawn side. This is a business community. Merchants. Also the most powerful militias. I got sense they are tired of fighting. Exhaustion. And you have mag pragmatists emerging. And you have to identify them and people you can work with. There has to be some confidence Building Measure ging ging measures on both sides. And ill leave it that. Thank you. That was really an excellent beginning to our conversation. Im going to try again. Eebibrahim can you hear us . And would you like to give remarks now . Okay im going to take that as a no. Ibrahim . Can you hear us . Okay. Im going to move on. Again, apologies to all of you and apologies to ibrahim for our technical difficulties here. Garmood morning everyone. Happy to be hear and talk about yemen. I want to point out a few years ago we were talking about yemen relation to tunisia in arab spring and now here today in relation to libya and sometimes in relationship to syria. I this i this is an opportunity to quickly glance over what went wrong. I think maybe it could be a cautionary tale of what the u. N. Should not do in libya, if they have an opportunity for a dialogue. So just a quick look at whats happening now in yemen. You have a houthi Rebel Movement. You have a strong southern secessionist movement. Strong in the sense they are dementing secession but they are not united and it is a coalition of several groups. And you have popular communities also that used to belong to the former president who just resigned. So you have these three main agents taking place. Of course in yemen you also have tribes. You have al qaeda and the Arabian Peninsula. Thats been americas biggest concern. Putting all of these players aside of course there are a lot more than those. And i can discuss in question answer session if you want. But looking at yemen right now. What is going oob right now . A Houthi Movement that ha took over the capital sana. And you have a president and a government that resigned. And so what the houthi Group Proposed for yemenis is the creation of the 551 Transitional National council that will take yemen through another transition for two years. This council will select five members and the five members are going to form a president ial council that is supposed to take care of anything that yemen needs for two years. And then we can have elections. Of course the threat of is that we just finished a transitional process that is led by the u. N. So the risk is, are we recreating another tangs that is Just Transition that is just a lot of work but no actual work would be implemented on the ground . I just want to give kwuyou an expl
