when he was 18, barack obama was barry. those are a number of examples when he was running for president where he was bringing up this issue. how do you -- how can you totally dismiss this as part of his political identity? >> chuck, i think the only people left obsessed about this are those still covering it. mr. trump made very clear -- we hardly get clarity from the clinton campaign on very much. he took to the podium and took maybe a minute or less to state three very crisp things. now he has moved on to issues people care about. it's remarkable to me to be out there with people and hear what they want covered. i'm looking at nbc's poll this morning. i don't see this issue anywhere in the top 40. i mean top 20. >> i get what you are deflecting. if i were in your shoes, i understand why you are deflecting. hang on. this is five years of his political identity. by the way, let me ask you this, now that he believes the president was born in the united states, i think has he made a $5 million charity offer or $50 billion ch

president obama has very little time left in office. this is the biggest thing hanging out there among his legacy things, the things he really wants to bring home. i would say the odds of it happening are less than 20% at the moment. laura: other countries who had agreed to support it are wobbling, like vietnam. why is vietnam wobbling? neil: vietnam has a lot to gain on the upside is it -- because it will get access to countries like the u.s. to which it would sell its products. on the other hand, it would have to open up protected industries and agree to certain labor standards that are causing some friction domestically within the political system. laura: if the president doesn't get this through, is that the end of it? neil: that's a really good question because we have seen this kind of thing happen before. nafta is something that george h.w. bush had pushed, spilled into bill clinton's presidency. he had to champion it and he won it. in this case it is difficult because not only is donald trump very vociferously opposing it, but s

president obama's foreign policy. most presidents resist doctrine because they see the world as too complicated to have a one size fits all answer for everything. but there are elements of what i call a foreign policy checklist for president obama. just like checklists are kind of interesting ways to organize your thinking. not just a to-do list or a how-to list, but a set of broad concepts that one would follow in trying to implement in a complex environment. one of the key elements of his check list sustainability. and i think one of the differences -- certainly, with the situation in iraq today versus iraq that he inherited in 2008 is today the united states has a position that is sustainable. that what everyone thinks of the surge in iraq in 2007 and 2008 and the reasons behind the success that we were seeing militarily in iraq during that time, that was not a sustainable posture for the united states to be in. we couldn't resource it. it was a surge, which by definition would recede. this actually gets to the sec
