“What percentage of Americans would say ‘no’ to the following poll question: ‘Do you think a Muslim ought to be president of the United States?’,” ponders Mike Barnicle on MSNBC’s Morning Joe in reaction to controversial views on both the Republican and Democratic parties. “The problem for the Republican party is Ben Carson has distorted this election for a period of time,” continues Mike reflecting on Republican presidential candidate Carson’s negative, generalized statements against Muslims.

Continuing the conversation about Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s slide in the polls due to her ongoing email controversy, Morning Joe’s Mike Barnicle analyzes the overall frustration with Clinton campaign’s approach: “I’m like a lot of people, lost in the maze of emails. I am now focused on the perception that she has fed, that has led to the frailty of her campaign, as to why haven’t they just dumped out all the emails….’Here they are!’ If they are so competent, which they are in many other aspects, politically and personally, then why didn’t they just dump all these emails out? What are they hiding?.” Watch the discussion on MSNBC’s Morning Joe.

Morning Joe’s Mike Barnicle talks with Republican presidential candidate Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) about the situation inside Syria in the fight against ISIS, now complicated further by a rising Russian presence. “There is a growing consensus that Syria is already a failed state and a growing consensus that Jordan, under siege by refugees, is in danger of collapsing. So, as unattractive as it might seem to many people, is it not a possibility that the best immediate strategy is to realize that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is going to be there for a while and to work out some structure with the Russians on the ground to have al-Assad lead whatever is left of Syria for several months—and then have him depart?,” asks Mike.

Following Governor Scott Walker’s exit from the Republican presidential race, Mike Barnicle and the Morning Joe panel discuss the ongoing conflict among the many Republican candidates and its negative overall impact on the party. “Viewing it from the outside, it seems too many of these Republican candidates are living in their own separate universe, their own cocoon, talking to just a slice of the electorate,” says Mike. “Two things are not going to win you elections: fear and anger. And too many of the Republicans combine both,” concludes Mike. Watch the conversation here and listen to Mike’s examples of Republican candidates’ completely disparate priorities. On MSNBC.

On MSNBC, Mike Barnicle and the Morning Joe panel evaluate the winners and losers in the aftermath of last night’s Republican presidential debate on CNN. “It was a three-hour debate with 11 people on the stage and almost all of them, including Donald Trump and Jeb Bush, faded slowly into the background—with the exception of Carly Fiorina, because of her specificity and strength in delivering,” says Mike of the candidates. “Governor Chris Christie had a good night. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) was very specific and very strong on foreign policy. What was Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) doing there? And, oh yeah, Ben Carson was there—I forgot,” continues Mike.

On MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Mike Barnicle provides his analysis of last night’s Republican presidential debate that aired on CNN: “I think because of her substance and presentation, Carly Fiorina really cleared the field last night. Because of the length of the debate, I think all of the people up on that stage had a tendency to fade into the background as the hours endured… but I think Carly Fiorina’s presentation last night put Ben Carson’s candidacy in the down escalator. I would not be surprised to see him slide quite precipitously and Carly Fiorina take over the number two position.”

You lost a child, tragic circumstances. Other than the obvious, that anyone would feel after losing a child, going through that experience, what did it teach you about yourself?,” asks Mike.

[starttext]
On MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Mike Barnicle, economic analyst Steve Rattner, and Meet the Press’ Chuck Todd take a closer look at the incredible income inequality and insecurity across this country, which is helping drive the popularity of candidates like Democrat Bernie Sanders and Republican Donald Trump. “It’s very rare that people in public life, politicians today, can manage to articulate and express the sense of rage, frustration and anger…. The definition of what encompasses ‘middle class’ has changed drastically over the last two decades. You have people now living on the edge. Everything around them goes up: their health insurance premiums, their property taxes, their car insurance bills. And their pay raise, when they get one, comes in the form of decreasing gas prices…,” explains Mike of the widespread economic situation that has led to increasing frustration that few candidates can relate to. See the charts that show that the bottom 90% of all Americans have essentially received no pay increase for the past 22 years. Watch the entire discussion here.

Following the recent CBS News/New York Times poll that finds 81% of likely primary voters perceive Vice President Joe Biden as honest and trustworthy, higher than any other Democratic or Republican candidate, Mike Barnicle gauges what might be going through the Vice President’s mind as he weighs jumping into the race. “I think he’s still conflicted whether he has the emotional and physical energy to do it… He knows the total commitment it takes to run for the presidency. It’s a full time job—24/7 for 14, 15 months. The aspect of raising money—which is humiliating enough when you’re running for the Senate or House—and he has to raise millions to run for the presidency. So, I think it’s still a jumble for him,” explains Mike.

“The coverage of (Democratic presidential candidate and Senator) Bernie Sanders is interesting because it almost always, right up at the top, mentions that he’s a socialist. But if you go to a Bernie Sanders rally, he’s not speaking to socialists. He’s speaking to American citizens and they are nodding their heads, buying 99% of what Bernie Sanders is saying . He has enormous crowds, enormous support, and the demographics skew very young. We ought to have him on (the show),” says Mike Barnicle on MSNBC’s Morning Joe of Sanders (D-VT). Watch the discussion on Sanders, followed by Mike’s conversation with the New York Times’ Jeremy Peters on changes in the Republican party that are sustaining Republican presidential candidate's Donald Trump’s popularity.

“She can win New Hampshire,” says Mike Barnicle of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, despite the latest polls showing fellow candidate Senator Bernie Sanders (D-VT) continuing to rise to lead Clinton in Iowa and New Hampshire. “There has been a precipitous drop in her support over the past six or seven weeks, but she has been pummeled nearly every single day, all day, in various media over a self-inflicted wound,” continues Mike, referencing her email debacle. View the latest poll results and hear what the Morning Joe plan attributes to her slip in the polls. On MSNBC.

“When you see the crowds and listen to Bernie Sanders, Ben Carson, Donald Trump… do you hear anything common in what each of them is saying to the public?,” Mike Barnicle asks Haley Barbour, former Governor of Mississippi, of the “outsider” presidential candidates in both parties early in this election cycle.

On MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Mike Barnicle and the panel discuss ongoing opposition to the U.S.-Iran nuclear agreement. “We do realize there are five other countries that agreed to this deal, right?,” says Mike, reminding the panel of the complex negotiation efforts. “Because a majority of people polled oppose it, we should say ‘ok, we’re out of it’?,” continues Mike, asking whether U.S. foreign policy should be dictated by polls. Watch the conversation here on the varied disapproval of President Barack Obama’s proposed deal with Iran, including that of U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY).

“Like us, quite often, you say you’re sorry when you get yourself into a difficult situation… hoping that the apology will make the issue go away. I’m sure that’s what she hopes, but that’s not going to happen. The issue is not going to go away, because the issue is larger than the emails now. The issue is the whole 20-25 years of luggage that the Clintons bring,” says Mike Barnicle of Hillary Clinton making the rounds apologizing for her use of a private email server during her time as Secretary of State. “When does Bill Clinton become really involved in this campaign?,” asks Mike.

President Barack Obama’s perceived “inexperience,” especially as it relates to dealing with the U.S. Congress on the nuclear agreement with Iran, is a topic of discussion on MSNBC’s Morning Joe. Says Mike Barnicle: “Obama says he is now ‘fearless,’ because of what he has dealt with in Washington. As soon as he took the oath of office, the Republican party said they would do everything they could to make him a one-term president as the principal goal. So, his frustration at governing has been visible nearly every day in office." Watch the conversation between Mike and Joe Scarborough here.

As the migrant crisis—driven by the poverty of sub-Saharan Africa and the wars in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan—continues to impact the Mediterranean and Europe, the New York Times Magazine's Scott Anderson joins MSNBC’s Morning Joe to talk with Mike Barnicle about the magazine’s latest cover story, which takes an in-depth look at the desperate factors behind the dramatic surge in migration this summer and the overwhelming nature of dealing with the situation at key entry points like Italy and Greece. “We have a horrific photo on the cover of the New York Times, a Turkish police officer carrying a drowned two-year old boy, which will galvanize people until about 10 a.m. this morning. Should we just shut down the United Nations for incompetence? You have Doctors Without Borders, the International Red Cross… trying desperately to deal with the situation, but there is no unifying government body, it seems, capable or willing to inject itself into this horrific, historical tale,” says Mike.

On MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Mike Barnicle shares his view on one of the main challenges facing Vice President Joe Biden as he considers another presidential run: “The Vice President travels every moment of every day as a member of a club that nobody wants to join—a father who buried a child. And I don’t think he has the energy to conduct a presidential campaign, which, as we all know, is all-consuming in terms of the time and the drain it takes on the candidate and the family.” Listen in on the conversation about whether Joe Biden will make a run for the presidency, along with a look at Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton’s latest poll numbers and a clip of Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) discussing her recent conversation with Biden.

As Former Governor and current Presidential candidate Jeb Bush continues to fight back against fellow candidate Donald Trump, Morning Joe’s Mike Barnicle reacts to the absurdity of the jabs being traded. “This is such a gift to Hillary Clinton,” says Mike of Trump’s criticism of Bush for using his Spanish skills during interviews. “It gets to the embarrassing fact that the vast majority of Americans don’t speak a second language. Overseas people speak Spanish and English, French and English… Some of us can’t even speak English,” continues Mike.

“The Pope is coming to America for the first time. In an amazing display of what Catholicism is all about, he indicated that parish priests ought to forgive women who had an abortion in the past.

On his third consecutive appearance on Bloomberg’s With All Due Respect, Mike Barnicle talks with John Heilemann about the increasing support for the U.S.-Iran nuclear agreement. “If you trigger enough votes [in favor], I think it enhances the reputation of President Barack Obama, the administration, Secretary of State John Kerry, and the policy itself—not just here in this country, but globally. It certainly gives the impression to the rest of the world that we speak with one voice on foreign policy,” says Mike of how congressional support for the deal impacts global opinion. On the subject of whether former Vice President Dick Cheney’s loud opposition to the agreement will make a difference, Mike says: “[It won’t make any impact] because of Dick Cheney’s record with Iraq and his still disbelief, or refusal to believe, that he made any mistakes.” Watch the conversation here.
