million. about 100,000 people and the withkable memorial president calvin coolidge in 1926. people with the community gathering here, at that time 150,000 people, said to be the largest crowd that the president or any president of the united states has spoken to up until that time. also a yearning for peace and a different sort of future. host: tune in today on c-span3.

to kansas city missouri for the national world war i museum and memorial. back to your calls and open open phones. want to make some comment about the de-radicalization segment, i am a veteran and a muslim. muslim sons, one who is also in the marine corps, and they are all teenager. -- all teenagers. one thing your callers brought up is how we have a lack of -- in america. crime he ism does a automatically iteris and if a white person does a crime it is a psychological issue. this has less and less to do with religion and more and more about isolation that these teenagers and people are swayed, so he brought up gang violence earlier.

you witness how easily teenagers are rewarded with these things. and it starts from society as a whole. i'm a black american. all my life in america i worked for the government. the mosque onto friday and explain to my children when they see picket signs and megaphones, and they are looking at me and their older brothers, saying you guys are marines, don't they know you served our country? you have sergeant and people saying we hate you because you are muslim. try explaining that to your 11-year-old or 12-year-old. host: what are the people picketing for? caller: you know, go home, get out this country, you don't belong here. american, my whole family is black. we are all devout muslims.

so the kids are confused. society.in this it is easy for someone to get on the internet and convince them that you are not welcome here, come over here. that is basically what is happening. change the language, we invest in psychology. it seems in america we don't value academia, we don't value experience, we don't value intelligence. if we took different approaches, maybe we could help solve this problem. host: if they agree with you and want to solve this problem, what would you recommend? caller: the easiest thing is media muslim, go to your local mosque or your local -- you would be surprised.

even on xbox live playing with someone. if you have this narrative of watching television and , yourent news programs will be stuck in the box. people are cornerstone experts. you never actually talk to actual muslims. people were just regular americans. raise our trying to children and pay our mortgage. he would find that we have more things in common than we have different. i served in the marine corps in quantico. tours, one of the clinton and one in the bush administration. host: you flew presidents around?

caller: i help keep the helicopters moving. host: in missouri, republican, john, good morning. caller: good morning. i have a quick comment. --ould watch judy rudolph judy woodruff, who comes on television and evening. had -- she had two people on there, one left-leaning, one right-leaning, but they both seem to be left-leaning to me. this goes on for however long they are on there. most of their dialogue is -- after i listened to about 15 minutes of that, then all of a sudden they stopped and had a fundraiser and i think what kind of an idiot -- thatrump supporter is just an observation. thank you, sir.

host: coming up tomorrow at 10:00, as usual, our newsmakers program. here is congressman lujan taking questions on whether congressman will pick up seats in 2018. >> how many seats is reasonable in your view of 2018? lujan: i don't have a crystal ball. it is still early to figure out what happened in november of 2018. but there is no doubt we will be able to pick up seats in this environment. paul ryan's numbers are dropping . republicans are moving on. they are going to double down and force republicans to walk off the plank again. we are not even out of the first 100 days of this new administration. host: you can see newsmakers also at 6t 10 a.m.,

p.m. eastern. you can listen on the c-span radio app. time for a few more calls. oscar, good morning. >> good morning, america. i want to of the size the , he saidi listen to 507 russians who have been killed. it's amazing how my time tie even heard the comments about we should get our news from the new york times or the financial nots, because our news is accurate. i find that amazing, hearing it -- when we watch , especially donald trump, don't think we should

father for him to release his did it's almost like following a paper trail. it's ridiculous how easy it would be to figure out how much is invested in xyz countries. know if he is associated with russian politics? this guy flipped, he is going to be the fall guy. everybody should pick up a book on international studies, or -- or read airan book on iran, read a book on ukraine. you would be surprised how history has always had people who are greedy. it is all about money. people that conquer, people that rule for hundreds of years, all it is is about territory and money. the: after talking about

testimony at the senate intelligence committee hearing this past week on russia in the 2016 election, of course you can go on our website for that. that going to watch that you can watch that in its entirety on c-span.org. joan is on the line. caller: i wanted to make comments about the world war i. we many years ago -- it was closed down and ran down. and they had built it up and the it so beautiful since democrats here in kansas city -- which we are the only blue area beside st. louis. we have added in the last 15 years so much to that area. kids can go enjoy and learn .bout world war i

i am so proud of kansas city to have this memorial. host: we're going to be live at the memorial on c-span3. how close are you? it is across the river, wait --y father had to my father had to wait 15 years to get his metal. i think the only way you are going to understand what world is a dolls that have learned from their ancestors what happened. have a lot of family members that were in the military. all the way back to world war i. alivetry to keep it within our family, but i think more people need to talk to their families about how they

served and why the war happened and why america is still free. host: we will be live there in just about half an hour for the 100th anniversary ceremony, the anniversary of the u.s. entry into world war i. stephen from georgia. good morning. to --: i was just calling we are missing the mark. the united states is missing the mark. everywhere i see, i see revelations. 13, chronicles to wereus that if my people to humble themselves and seek return from their wicked ways --

bad we are doing more destruction then construction or even peaceful harmony. i guess there are a lot of things i could talk about. i don't know what else to comment on. host: we only have about 30 seconds left. i did want to tell our viewers about tomorrow's washington journal. --orrow we will be joined by to talk about the potential of pandemics around the world and what can be done to prevent them. davidl also be joined by spencer, nephew of nelson rockefeller and founder of practically republican. and david o'sullivan will join us, the european union ambassador to the united states. british prime minister theresa may formally begin the process to leave the european union.
