marx, carl marx who wrote a column for horace greeley's "new york tribune" in the 1850s and followed the war passionately because he saw the war as a step in his vision of communism and believed that the war reflected the unity of the working classes internationally, and here he's essentially says as much. he says the misery that the stoppage of the factories and the labor time motivated by the blockade of the slave states produced among the workers in the northern manufacturing districts is incredible. so on the one hand, they're facing total misery. working class is conscious that the government is only waiting for their cry from the pressure. now, marks is off base, in my view, in thinking that social change always occurs from the margins. that if the working classes just actually come together, that's going to produce a revolution. historically, it's a dialectic between what goes on in the margins and what goes on in the seats of power. but he's right in noting that they're refusing to call for the working -- the working classes in england are refusing to call for a recognition o

i trace liberalism ancestors but it does go back to the first limousine liberal and karl marx more recently there is the stealth socialist and a white house whose inspiration came from a community activist who in his youth stole hubcaps or holt automobiles. intellectual history is full of artist and incompetents. you would not expect them to be capable to boil the a but imagine either with a molotov cocktail. one would probably drink it. he always drank cheap stuff. there were historic moments as i record in my book. the ruutu civil wars. 1948 and 1972 the more sober liberals one. 1970 to the zanies but liberalism on the road to its demise to this self socialist. there was always a abundance of crazy enthusiasts. liberalism even 1948 was the offbeat charm there was the highest-ranking nudist and the roosevelt administration. roosevelt fired him without controversy then out year hiss and baxter writes the communist connections were less amusing and those like the atchison covered for the each other to the shame of liberalism. this was the first great why it -- rise but more were to come. but

just a general question, what jumped out at you marx tae ya first? what stood out?> i think what came into sharp relief last night was how much money obama is spending. he burned through more than $44 million last month that was three times as much as he did the previous month and that was largely to respond to these outside groups that have been flooding the airwaves with ads attacking him and trying to frame his record this suspect ads coming from mitt romney, this is coming from groups such as americans for prosperity and cross roads g.p.s. and this has been forcing obama to go up on the air early on in a big way in this campaign. >> brown: ken vogel, what jumped out at you? >> i was surprised by mitt romney's ability to bank on this vast network of big donors he spent years cultivating. as soon as he left the massachusetts's governor's mansion he started running for president in 2008, started building this network of big donors. of courseix candidate for the nomination of your party you're not able to accept those big donations so this time around he see his sup

." >> america has been the land of the game show since groucho marx dangled a toy duck in front of the faces of contestants. whether we're watching "let's make a deal," "deal or no deal" or "the price is right," at some point, just about all of us have screamed at a contestant, "don't be stupid, take the money!" that's how i feel about the u.s. treasury market. the government has racked up trillions of dollars of debt, $5 trillion alone since president obama moved into the white house. we don't know how we're going to pay it back, and yet the world is willing to lend us long-term money at less than 2%. so why not give our kids a break by taking the deal and issuing 100-year bonds, locking in today's puny rates? corporations do it. disney issued "sleeping beauty" bonds and the market scooped them up. instead, recklessly, the treasury borrows short-term funds that must be rolled over. one of these days, when the government tries to roll over that paper, rates will have jumped much higher and the world's financial system will look at the u.s. taxpayer and announce: "game over, you lose."

and at age 16, he began reading carl marx. and it was here in wichita, he went to the forum, which is the forerunner of our century to today, and he heard eugene debs, who was then the socialist party leader, talk about socialism, and he became so moved that he began selling the appeal to reason. it was the nation's largest socialist newspaper in the time. and it was published here in kansas. at that time, there was a huge, diverse economic dichotomy going on. you had the very, very wealthy, and you had the very, very poor. and the browder family was certainly among the very poor. and the socialist movement at that time offered hope. what happened was world war i broke out. and rather than serve in the military, he went to prison. and -- when he got out of prison, he then helped organize the communist party in the nation, and went during the 1920s to china and helped organize the chinese communist party. and then he came back and was the general secretary of the communist party here in the nation. ran for president in 1936 and

. >> one of the things that struck me about -- going back to the marx, the london workers meeting, he talks about how the silence is admirable. >> yes. >> and it struck me that that's actually in a way what lincoln is doing in his first inaugural. >> that's exactly right. a great point. >> he's seeking out a position of silence and sort of, and that's in a way after sumpter -- dug lass is also able to then be part of the status quo as opposed to fighting against the status quo. >> that's a very good point. >> that position is a position of power. when silence equals defense of the status quo, suddenly silence becomes a position of power as opposed -- and puts the southerners, the confederacy, in the mode of the actors who have to defend their actions as opposed to those who remain silent and don't defend their silence. >> that's a great point. that's a great point. can we bring the mike down here? >> i agree with that point especially since the south is sort of characterized traditionally as the hot-headed people. >> right. >> and i think marks kind of -- sorry. >> that was the stereo

when with going back to the years with marx, where if you look at where latin america was in the '70s they were almost all military governments. today there are very few military governments. if you look at the nations of eastern europe and the soviet union in the '80s, was there the sense that it would never change. it did change. you look at south africa. you look at what happened in northern ireland. we are now, this panel and these years they're dealing with the places that have been the most intractable, countries in the middle east and countries in asia where you have not had a tradition of civil society and you haven't had the noings of free press and where women have been held down for decades or centuries and we're now in the process in the early stage of trying to figure out how those things change. change is a messy business and it's not a linear process. we can't force it to happen, but we can help empower people who are the agents of change. that's, to me, the message of this day and it's the message of what drl is about. we can't do it alone and we are not always going t

thus lee was very much an officer's general, but the enduring image of marx robert as a soldier's general is impossible to ignore. unlike the armies of mercenaries, conscripts and disenfranchised soldiers who served in armies most military theorists of lee's era wrote about, lee himself nerve ter forgot that he commanded an army of citizen soldiers. even though he opposed the practice on a professional level, he appreciated matters such as, for instance, a georgian had to be found to command a leaderless georgia brigade, and his reasons included phrases such as, because it may be more agreeable to the men. a consideration that he wrote carried much weight with me. he shared their hardships. he understood that positive reward had a place alongside strict discipline fop reduce dezers rate he instudent add system of merit torous fe ououss to encourage good service with a highly desired reward but support the execution of demplt deserters if circumstances warranted it. he became at times a soldier's add voe doit address their needs largened small. given some of the large-scale matters i menti

one of the historical points you make in your book is that carl marx of all people, obviously a sentt re ago said the industrial revolution would lead to incredible divide in income distribution. that didn't happen until about 1970, income, there was a convergence of income only back in the neep 70s we began to see this. historically, why did we survive the industrial revolution and recently global trade and other factors have moved us this other way? >> it's baffling. you are right right. throughout much of the 20th sent re we saw nmos becoming more equal during the depression and world war ii, you could say those were extra o circumstances but in the post war years. now we have a different kind of economy than we had then. we also had strong unions thinly then and, you know, labor has declined around the world but it's declined a lot steeper here in the united states, and that's because the government policy has basically been anti-labor for at least a couple of decades and the 1947 law, the taft hartley law acted as kind of a slow-acting poison so that's had a profound impact. >>
