including what happened between chevy chase and gerald ford as a result of saturday night live. here is a portion of that talk. >> the goal is to show that you can use tv, you can use staged events to actually convey a sense of authenticity. yet, time and time again, struggled to counter what he called in his memoir, the biggest problem in the white house. the material in the media as a bumbler. no one has made this so powerful quite like chevy chase. when he first saw chevy chase performing as the bumbling gerald ford on the edgy new show, saturday night, the first season, not saturday night live, it was called that later on, he cringed. he also wondered if this actually might be an opportunity to use humor, to embrace it and advance the administration is goals? gerald ford invited chevy chase as a guest to the correspondents association dinner in march of 1976. he made this announcement there that ford would send his own representative to join the show the following month. so he did exactly that. guest hosted saturday night on april 17th.

gerald ford took office august ninth, 1974, after president nixon resigned. for declared in his remarks upon taking the oath of office. i am acutely aware that you have not me as your president by your ballots. so i ask you to confirm me as your president with your prayers. god helping me. i will not let you down. thank you. during their time the white house, the fords made an celebrar dated history such as their participation in the bicentennial, including hosting a state dinner for queen elizabeth. the second. although one of the most famous families in the country, the fords enjoyed ordinary moments, the president was often with the family's golden retriever liberty. liberty. and my dad had just a really unique relationship her dad taking her to the office, and she would just got right underneath his desk and made herself right at home. and like many american families was also a special time. the fords. the white house. so exceptionally beautiful during christmas and coming up with the themes you know the year of the bicentennial we did bicentennial orname

there is a brief gerald ford interlude after nixon resigns. we talked about this a couple weeks ago, it was a real moment of declining trust in the government. declining trust specifically in the presidency. the idea that there is lots going on and one power has a lot of power. one purpose. they are able to use public resources for their own kind of political ends. in 1976, nixon's resignation is in 1974. in 1976 when carter is running, that is still fresh in people's minds. delving further back than that, we talked quite a bit about what was going on in the democratic party. we talked a lot about the chaotic ending of the lyndon b. johnson administration in 1968. that has also got some implications for carter. we talked about the country that senses that johnson had gone back on campaign promises about the war in vietnam. that they were lied to multiple administrations. we also have a democratic party that is crumbling around the issue of civil rights. we talked about the impact on the broader political situation, that will press as some real

the episode begins with a segment by gerald ford from the oval office. but at the episode which a signature live from new york it's saturday night. so we did inject itself slightly into that show. but it was really ron who was a guest host, who was the start of many of the different skits that he was in and it's a really fascinating episode. i encoura you to watch the entire episode. >> watch the full program online anytime at c-span.org/history. just search kathryn brownell or the presidency. >> begins on c-span2 or an intellectual feast every saturday american history tv documents america's stories, and on some days booktv brings you the latest in nonfiction books and authors. funding for c-span2 companies television companies and more cl

ford was defeated by jimmy carter, um, it was jimmy carter that picked up the uh, the mantle of arab israeli peace, and it was jimmy carter who... made the camp david peace accords a reality, but uh, this was all started by henry kissinger. well, we'll come back to the discussion in a moment after our next report about the lekot parties plans to assassinate henry kishinger in 1977. despite his services to designist entity in neutralizing egypt, there were some in the israeli political arena who could not trust henry kissinger and saw his activity as harming the... his project, while his work on normalization was carried out in lock step with the israeli labor party, the right-wing liquid party, which currently governs designist entity, was deeply opposed to him. us state department officials leaked the story to the new york daily news in 1977 that the liquid party had put $150,000 contract for the assassination of kissinger. at first, it was claimed that the threat eminate. from palestinian groups aware of his work in isolating them, but it was later described as a quote, a small rad

and we've seen also one of the deterring factors with the american gerald ford carrier that was brought into the mediterranean sea to help protect the north of the border of israel to help israel with its efforts. this is something on the small as mocking. another part of his, of his speech was talking about is really turn is the to turns collapsing and how we cannot even survive without american support. how it's basically all a scam, or a sham and, and, and showing it as a weakness single, this alliance, this american is really alliance. for now, the carrier is still up, a plan to be is on the way out of the mediterranean. there are talks that these are, these might ask it to do a u turn and come back. but as long as we're still seeing it in the direction out, i think there's safe to assume there's not gonna be any escalation in the next couple of days. let's take a moment to look at mazda, because negotiations were going on to get more hostages slowly. yes, yes. where does the killing of a re leave all of those efforts? the diplomatic efforts to get away out of if you talk to is real

ford ship and its replacement by a smaller ship shows that the us is slowly reducing its pressure on the region, and the british are looking for fear. there are people who want to dispel the fear of british presence in bavol mandab. the english are afraid of the continuation of shipping , which is actually endangered in the region. if it is another year, we will be at your service . kanaani, spokesman for the ministry of foreign affairs, in a meeting yesterday the news emphasized that the actions of the united states and the united kingdom cause insecurity in the region and the consequences of this case are their responsibility, but you mentioned an interesting point that it is true that the threats of the united states and the united kingdom to the region are simultaneous, but not synchronized. to the fact that england is afraid of what position it will have in the region in the future and is actually trying to survive, i am right, mr. bagharian , i agree with you exactly, that is what i mean, that is, england and america, there is a very big gap between these two capitalist systems

ford, we know that they will be moving away from from the region, whether this is a sign from the israel from the us that they're not going to support the israelis if they want to launch a war against lebanon, it's not clear, we know that definitely they're not seeing i to eye when it comes to the confrontation in lebanon as well, and so how things will play out, it's not clear, but we are seeing that the confrontation is still ongoing. all right, well thank you so much for that update out of beirout. press tv is mariam sal. moving to other news now this hour, iran's foreign ministry says islamic republic is not afraid of announcing its support for the resistance front. the ministry spokesman naser canany made the remark during his weekly pressure. canadi said tehran considers the resistance front as a legitimate movement. in palestine in the west asia region under international law, the spokesman said resistance groups in the occupied palestine are trying to liberate the land that belongs to palestinians. he also slammed western support for israel. cannony said though. so ignored the na

guess i can offer is that with the apparent withdrawal from the region of the us aircraft carrier, gerald ford, that would seem to indicate to the israelis probably, that the united states really does not intend to be drawn into uh, to be directly drawn into the gaza conflict, and certainly... not into a further regionalization of the conflict, so again assuming israeli um culpability for all of these actions, if that is the case, um, one could probably surmise that israel is attempting to widen the scope of the conflict in a bid to draw in the united states directly, given its transparent inability either to subdue the gaza strip or... to deal with all of the different fronts on which it is also engaged in the west bank, lebanon, syria and in the red sea from the direction of yemen as well, so it is a highly dangerous situation, but that goes without saying, um, but uh, it would seem probably to be more indicative of israeli desperation than israeli. confidence or actual intent to ignite a regional war. thanks lot, samt is joining us from mel. thank you. moving on the european union has

and on the third hand, you had gerald ford in the 1970's when he was trying to impeach supreme courtliam douglas, who said an impeachable offense is whatever a majority of the house of representatives says it is at any given time. what's your take on this? sarah: there is a kernel of truth to representative green's argument that the framers said it shouldn't just be a standard of actual criminal misconduct, but at the same time, the letter writers, the legal experts are correct. in fact, the framers elicitly rejected this term, maladministration. which essentially boiled down to policy differences, that that was too low a threshold that that should be the basis of impeachment. does that leave us with former president ford, but a majority is willing to support. in some ways, that's what it boils down to. john: you talked about earlier when the debate over this impeachment clause at the time the constitution was being written, hamilton said at the time that when impeachment happened, it would inevitably become political, that the country would be divided into camps for and against. are
