How President Obama -- you don't believe that when he says something he means it don't believe may take a look.
I just recommend -- took a look at people's previous statements I assume that.
People.
Meant what they said when they -- it.
That's been at least my practice.
That was we just -- and have discovered over the last three years that is not exactly true after all this is the president has said that his economic plan.
Would lift the middle class here in America to new heights.
-- slammed his predecessor when it was reported to the median income for the middle class fell by about.
2000 dollars during the bush years but wouldn't you know what according to Bloomberg News that number has.
Plummeted by over 4000.
Dollars thanks to the Obama administration so in other words.
The president is not exactly doing what he promised and joining us now to share his vision for how to save America Herman -- in his new book.
999.
An army of -- it's it's out today.
Herman while the backs are.
Thank you should first period what do -- of the cheap shot but he took it Mitt Romney over the issue of bin Laden.
It was a cheap shot just like you say it and that's unfortunate.
The American people expect more of that leaders look we know that politics comes into play but when you take cheap shot after cheap shot.
More of the American people wake up to the fact.
The only way we have -- going to get this economy going starts with one fundamental principle.
Throw out the current tax code.
So that Obama and the politicians.
Can't.
Play favorites this is why I wrote the book.
Man that an army of Davids because we have opened against beat governor Mitt -- idea that -- all the way we gonna turn this around.
Right are you good -- confident are -- -- is not going to be the nominee.
Newt -- is is set out the video today that he's gonna suspend his campaign so as Romney's.
Are you confident.
That Mitt Romney is going to be bold enough and his play and maybe not exactly 999 that was your plan but is he gonna be bold enough and changing the tax code.
And doing the things that are necessary to help the bleeding in terms of the budgets and plug up a whole the -- -- we can start bailing out some of those that.
Yes I -- -- As a matter of fact I admit person -- -- what Mitt Romney a week -- -- today.
-- along with his chief of staff and my chief of staff and let me tell you my impression -- one.
Mitt Romney listens he's open to suggestions of course I suggest that some favorable things.
And he didn't immediately embrace it but -- he was open to it secondly.
He realizes that now that he's presumptive nominee he's got to do some healing and that some things that he's -- -- to do.
-- in order to bring about the healing but yes I believe that Mitt Romney will be bold enough to do some of the things that need to be done but more importantly it.
There are a number of decisions that Obama made that we know Mitt Romney would not make.
And that's what I want them to -- when it's gone so they can stay focused on the mission.
When you say a healing.
-- I just heard these little rumblings here in there.
I've heard that he is reaching out to all the other candidates and that he's calling out for -- unity -- Is that something the might happen all of the Republican.
Primary candidates getting together.
Yes he is planning to do some -- to things such as.
Not just a unit to two and a unit to Deanna.
But he's also open to some of the ideas that the other Republican primary candidates put on the table Wednesday and -- -- I wasn't invited and I get to that can you give me ticket well we have -- formalized that yet I'll make sure that you get an invitation that's that desktop but still in the works OK but I know he is very serious about reaching out.
Not only to the other candidates but to all of the citizen activists that are out there we know that that -- a lot of healing that needs to be done because this primary campaign with -- negative.
There's so much attack he's ready now to bring back the leadership necessary to try and bring the Republican Party and the conservatives to get -- The biggest message you had in your campaign was the 999 plan you came out would just walk when you say reform the tax -- You think there's the will in Washington.
To really fundamentally.
Restructure.
The tax code I mean -- half Americans don't pay federal income tax that's almost a voting majority.
Do you really think that these politicians are willing to put their careers on the line and just do the right thing.
Not without.
The wheel of the people -- paid massive.
Activists -- through -- movement from the bottoms up this is why I wrote the book man that an army of Davids.
If we get enough pressure on BM.
They -- -- not gonna do it from me and sat there not gonna do it when they may remember the -- -- -- that Everett -- said it best.
When they feel the heat they both see the light.
We the people have to be the heat and this is why -- published.
Not that man an army update this because we have to take on gold -- -- Which means putting the heat on the people Babbitt in Washington DC and those that are gonna get elected in the new congress right now Herman -- always good to see it thank you very much.
And coming up you got to meet him.
