virginia was the nation in its own eyes and in the eyes of many others. but by 1815, 1820 that was no longer true. and virginia and the other southerners see themselves as a beleaguered minority, even though they are in control, still in control of the national government. now all of these demographic commercial changes could not help but affect every aspect of american life. and i want to just touch on some of them to give you some of the of what i think was happening in this period. politics first of all became democratized as more americans gain the right to vote. but it isn't just the right to vote. columnist had two thirds of white american males could vote, but now it's different. is not only the right to vote is extended, but the interest in voting has been expanded. is entering the aristocratic world of the founding fathers in which these stood for election, that's the term they use, was largely replaced by a very different democratic world, erected by the plea modern world. even my 1810, recognizably modern world of competing professional politic

i live in virginia, which voted for the last races of the two candidates for the first time in history, and it was a black man. this is good for projective. but we behaved as if it was a goat. i will grant you, we had a two in 2000, we headed to a 2004, but in 2008 we had an election and following an election you don't sit at home and wait to see what happens. you have made a deal and you are half of the deal is exactly what barack obama asked for. and that is to get out there and make them do it. and i don't mean make the president do it. the low-hanging fruit, is what's left of our representatives is to make your representatives in the house do it. and that means block bad bills, that means subpoenas, that means begin impeachment proceedings and that means put forward good built at the house doesn't always have to go second. the senate doesn't always have to go first. the house can push the senate. the senate has been worse than the house for over two centuries. the house passed bills against slavery at least eight times. the senate thought a war might be a better idea. we are in a s

jay rockefeller of west virginia chairs the commerce and transportation committee. this is one hour and 35 minutes. >> this social event will come to order. and i'm going to give my opening statement, and then the ranking member, kay bailey hutchison will do the same. and then we'll call on an interesting very successful, beginning a political person from the state of new york i think. the honorable charles -- yes. thank you so much. and i needed that. i needed that a law. okay. at this very moment right now, 11 percent of all drivers on the road are holding an electronic device. they are calling home on their cell phone or they're reading text from a friend. or they are sending an e-mail to their office on their blackberry. or they are looking up directions with a gps system. that amounts to, please note, 812,000 distracted voters at any given moment. and those 812,000 drivers are not focus on the road. they are focused on their devices. and in this is much danger. they are putting their own lives at risk. that is their right. they are putting their passengers lies

most of our green jobs in west virginia and kentucky and louisville, all around our wonderful country, they're discussing green jobs and i think there's a hunger to fix the two most critical problems of our day, our economic catastrophe and our climate crisis. if there's ever two times we want to put two words together, are the two word, climate and crisis. but we're there. but out of a climate crisis, the two sides to crisis, there is the one side that is danger and if we do not fix what is wrong with our climate, there's no more snow on mount kill man jar row, there's now huge lakes in the greenland, the arctic is beginning to melt away, there's asthma, there's cancer, we saw katrina. if we don't fix the climate crisis, and we move toward a catastrophe, but the other side of crisis, there are two sides to crisis. there's crisis on one side, but there's also opportunity. we have the opportunity to fight poverty and pollution at the same time. and we can also put the people who most need work and give them the jobs that we most need to be done, the jobs are retrofitting and weatherizi

washington himself made sure we would not have earl tea, not of the king and george mason delegates from virginia, argued against this idea of the constitution itself because he said even though we would be electing people, we would be in danger of an elected monarchy. in other words people's name recognition, we'll know people would be elected over and over and if you are in the same family disadvantages really help the to do that. sell the idea of the book really came from the original debate and if you fast-forward over 200 years later, we have a lot of families who have tremendous political power in the united states, the kennedys, the bushes, the clintons, the cuomo's and the bushes of course and if you look at all of these particular families, it seems like the end result is a run for the presidency in the book argues that you know, family politics and united states is probably going to continue until the end of the republic and there is not necessarily anything like that, brothers running for the u.s. senate or city councilman or whatever but for the presidency to really be shared in one i

holiday scratchers from the virginia lottery. >> joe: amazing the washington capitals in every game this fall at some point they have had the lead. they had the lead tonight and have lost it. we are 2-2 with 20 minutes to go in regulation. this is netstar 1 intermission live. the kind of game that alex semin would love to be playing with. the injured winger out of the lineup but with the help of an interpreter, here is comcast sportsnet russ thaler chatting with number 28. >> a lot of people say that you have more skill than anybody on this team, including alex ovechkin. how does it make you feel when other people say that semin is the most talented player on the washington capitals? >> [ through interpreter ] >> of course i feel very, very -- it's very nice when people say these things. i just have to keep working to get better. all the time. but as far as talent, also, i can say it's up to other people who see me from the side lines to say. >> the one knock on you is that sometimes you play great, and it looks like you're really into it, and sometimes maybe your mind is somewhere else.

and, finally, to quote representative rick voucher, another senior democrat from virginia. he said, "i also intend to oppose the bill because my concern that a government-operated health insurance plan could place at risk the survival of our region's hospitals." i'm concerned and i'm determined to protect the rural health care that we have in the state of mississippi, and that we have in these districts that are represented by -- by these comments. and so i just wanted to jump in now before the senator from arizona concludes his portion of the initial remarks and say that the concerns are not only coming from republicans, they're coming from actuaries, they're coming from people who have analyzed this bill, and they're coming from -- from democrats who have read the bill, who understand its meaning, and understand that these cuts to medicare are real and they're hurtful. and i yield back to the gentleman. mr. kyl: mr. president, the senator from mississippi is exactly right. and it's not just members of the house and members of the senate, republicans and democrats, and sen

perhaps we found some this election tuesday in virginia. i am sure we will find more. it may take a cycle or two to get the new generation of republicans out there. all of a sudden we're seeing a lot of republicans encouraged to run, a lot of new candidates as a result of tuesday's election. >> what lesson do you thought of bob macdonald's victory? beside a big shift among independents. do you need to run to the center to be successful republican? >> guest: yes that are two ways of doing that. the lessons of the past election, the democrats are in this wonderful place where when you ask why they're going to win in 2010, because the republicans are a mess, they are divided and eating their own, i have told that story. usually when you tell that story, that is a bad place. the republicans are very unified at this point. we are unified, fiscal issues, a big umbrella. you saw it in congress when voted against the stimulus and in places like florida where the fellow out of the mainstream is one guy who happens to be the governor. every other republican in the state doesn't

and most expect bob huggins and west virginia to win that conference this year. you were talking last night. watch out for rick patino. >> larry: yeah. i think louisville is going to be very good. >> dan: rebound to jones. that's jones. >> larry: he finally got one. >> dan: maybe that gets him going. >> larry: well, he was 1 for his last 12 counting last night and tonight. maybe that will get him going. >> dan: gives you an idea of his quickness and speed to the goal. 4:30 to play. >> larry: depaul went on a 10-0 run before that basket. >> dan: 27-18. nice look on the left block. trying to go up and understand. and picking it up and krys faber. >> larry: faber doing a nice job. how about the work down inside by the guys they need down there, faber and devin hill? >> dan: faber with four. three up from the right side. that's the second of the night for chris prescott. >> larry: well, if anything is going to happen for st. joseph's offensively, it has to be their guards. >> dan: the lead is caught to eight. walker in the lane. got it, blocked. st. joseph's has it.

because during the debate in the finance committee, senator rockefeller, senator jay rockefeller of west virginia, ensured that we kept the children's health insurance program out of the exchange and that the program would continue to 2019. unfortunately the house doesn't have the same provisions and we want to make sure that we do that by the end of the debate here. so i filed an amendment today to make sure that children are protected by health care reform. so that we can truly say that no child is worse off as a result of our health care reform bill. in a nutshell this amendment will strengthen and safeguard insurance for children rap championship from 2019 and beyond with whatever changes the future of health care reform brings. i will have a couple of highlights. i know i'm over my time. it continues funding through 2019. it ensures that children have access to the essential care they need. it streamlines and simplifies enrollment. the amendment also provides financial incentives for states to increase enrollment much the eligible, but uninsured children and calls for a study of children und

>> virginia, what i would say is when i say most americans, i mean obviously i represent a lot of people in south dakota, but i think a lot of people across the country are worried about spending or debt. that does capture a lot of the concerns that americans have. i think in healthcare there are things we can agree upon. i think a lot of americans are worried about what happens if i get denied healthcare or if i lose my job and the healthcare. those are things most of us agree upon and most people agree we ought to drive the cost of healthcare down. healthcare costs keep going up at double-digit rates of inflation every single year. what i'm proposing is that we focus on solutions to getting the cost of healthcare down, that we address the issues, that concern a lot of americans and i think there are ways to do that. allowing people to buy insurance across state lines insterstate competition, allowing people to join small business health plans and doing something about medical malpractice reform and doing something about chronic disease management, there are a number of things that can

finally, to quote representitive about your another senior democrat from virginia, says i did intend to oppose the bill because of my concerns that the insurance plan could place at risk the survival of our region hospitals. i am concerned and it determined to protect the rural health care that we have been the state of mississippi and in the districts represented by these comments. and the senator from arizona can conclude his part of the initial remarks and say that the concerns are not only coming from republicans but from actuaries, people who have analyzed this bill and coming from democrats who have read the bill and understand its meaning and understand the cuts to medicare are real and hurtful. i yield back. >> senator from mississippi is exactly right for, not just members of the house or senate republicans, democrats come as senior citizens in arizona. here are either a third party sources. the senators from medicaid services, the outfit that runs medicare they confirmed the cuts will compromise the care seniors receive. "the washington post" newspaper. how about that? is s

for what purpose does the gentleman from virginia rise? >> mr. speaker, i ask unanimous consent to address the house for one minute. the speaker pro tempore: without, the gentleman is recognized. mr. cantor: thank you, mr. speaker. mr. speaker, i rise to speak about the majority's move to overhaul our health care system this week. and from what i can see, mr. speaker, the version of health care reform that this majority is bringing forward is a horrible, horrible step. the bill is something unseen before. it's a $1 trillion attempt to overhaul the system we know with one that we don't. mr. speaker, the republicans will stand united against this bill. mr. speaker, and we'll do so because, one, the american people have spoken out and they see that this is an extreme attempt to try and address what's really wrong with our system and it doesn't match what the mainstream commonsense american wants. number two, mr. speaker, contrary to the suggestions on the other side, we do have a better way. we will be offering our republican plan. and that p
