tavis: you always wait for quincy jones. anyway? you're saying? >> hoyer remember that. anyway, we grew up poor in brooklyn. and when we were old enough to go and do that, we would sneak into the theater, particularly musical theater in the second act towards the final period it was a craft, really. we knew exactly when the act brakes were in every show, and no matter what the weather, it could be freezing out, you take off your jacket and coached into a stand with it over your arm and hand look like he just came of the theater and mix with the crowd. it was a sold-out show, standing room. otherwise, it became living what it might be. even though we couldn't afford to see the whole show, and there was some kind of poetic justice here, because often now we walked out of shows. tavis: that is funny. if you live long enough, it balances out. ahead >> in the value time so much. >> we grew up on great musical theater. and done great films. we were talking earlier about their about half fred astaire. had about the great songs that never would of been written if not for fred as

angels are real and depends upon who is america's number one there's a there's a gradual decline john quincy adams said when he was secretary of state in eight hundred twenty one before was president that we could be dictators of the world what our was policy would then shift from a policy of liberty and freedom to a policy of domination and control and now we are a country that's lost its way and it's not because we may not be number one in the amount of arms we sell you know we felt about three quarters of all arms abroad or have the greatest military power but because we lost our moral stature and values of who we are as a people i. iran has rejected as a political move the latest report by the u.n. nuclear watchdog which claims the country's doubled the number of uranium enrichment centrifuges technion believes the findings are aimed at overshadowing the nonaligned movement summit taking place there so you mohammad marandi a professor at the university of to run thanks the release of the report at this time is highly suspicious. the iranians are saying that this report came at a sensitiv

he is doing a book on john quincy adams. we don't think of as a slavery president. we think of abraham lincoln as that rightly show but john quincy adams was intimately involved with making it so people could talk about slavery and help free the slaves on the other side. wonderful story. nobody tells these stories. >> we have seen a lot of books on john adams but not so many on john quincy adams. >> from having a president who went on to have a son who was a president recently, george bush. interesting to imagine the parallels between the two families. >> who is stephen brown? >> another author of ours. he has done a book -- the last vikings. of polar explorer. there were four parts of the world's -- the north pole and south pole and northwest package and northeast kerri at and he was the only person to explore all four of them and did it in less than 20 years and considering how much to those in to these that is record time to northwest passage and northeast passage. >> well-known english author martin keller. >> wonderful

that's john quincy adams by the way standing at the center in the short. the treaty can be summed up in the latin phrase that quincy adams used which is status quo antebellum, the way things were before the war. note territory change, very little changed in fact in some ways, psychologically and politically in particular the war was something of a watershed and while this may not have proved a memorable war i would like to make the case of was nonetheless a very important war in shaping the american character to prevent more contemporary terms we were getting bullied and we stood up for ourselves. was david and goliath i suppose, and although we didn't lock our opponent to the ground, the world's expectations and our own self-confidence as a nation were altered as a result of the war. i think it might be useful to explain to mr. and mrs. madison in the title it is a function of chronology that when the war began it was the declaration that began it, so he got the blame, and eventually it was. in new england as was alluded to, no one really wanted to go to

we were talking to quincy and barbara about music, and in the course of the panel conversation, she said, my next project is going to be all of their songs. she hadn't told us yet. >> how is that for a surprise? >> to have this great artist, the only one of the greatest, tavis: you get asked questions about some writers for the virus, what do you find yourself saying to them? >> in similar answer to the question. the one of the reading. listening in the studying, the great songs came before you. why they last, why they still touch people or amuse people were excited people who or what ever songs can do. what is it about a song that is 30 years old hat still speaks to people? and sometimes can say something better than any essay or any speech, anythingople to causes,f love songs, i think you have to know the literature before you write a novel. there are novels the came before, and it should be the literature. i think aspiring songwriters had better know what came before them. the voice of a don't rewrite what has been written already. for, if the ceiling challenges. i know why he has is

john quincy adams? it was said he procured prostitutes for the russian tsar. thomas jefferson?s election would result in, "murder, robbery, rape, adultery, and incest." so until we get charges oo robbery, nuclear war-starting, or prostitute procuring, maybe this will have to wait . the president is taking things to a new low. they might be mean, cruel and cynical, but negative campaigns are not blights on history,they are our history. -----end----- cnn.script----- manny machado's firt mistake... mistake...see if it cost the o's... next in sports.

>> the sanctimonious president have been john quincy adams, james capel, quincy adams was a one term or, james pulled brought it upon himself much more difficult, political difficulties during his one term in office than was needed. jimmy carter, in my view, and george w. bush, i don't think that helped any of those presidents. but the historians consistently have rated wilson as consistently in the great war near great category. voters come as i say, they had a totally different view of him. let's talk about when the voters converged and they converge on the greatest of the great. the man i call leaders of destiny. and i have three criteria for those presidents that we have put into the category of leaders of destiny. i believe that these assessments are valid and in and of themselves, not necessarily complete, however. consistently high ranking in the polls, and consistently high ranking in terms of voters, and then a third test, presidency transformed the country's political landscape and sent the country on a new course. this is very difficult to do. it is difficult enough to be

there's some stunning photography of the wrecks of the quincy. these wrecks will not be with us forever. nature is reclaiming all that metal. so being able to grab history like that, i think it's valuab valuable. >> coast watchers all down toward, giving us some advanced warning what was coming? >> we did. the question is about the coast watchers. these were brave souls in the. if you look at this chain of islands, there were essentially rogue agents equipped with radios. these were australians, these were men who had been working, they might've had kind of administrative role on one of the islands. this was basically a british protectorate of most of these islands and soviet agents of the ground. you had people who were attached to one or another business, such as the pineapple trade or what have you, maybe some kind of a government role as well. when the japanese invaded the headed to the hills and they supply the crucial function of up serving movements of the japanese ships up and down the waterways. and with their radios, signaling, usually

for them to be, which is often someplace cold with lots of cheap power, like central oregon, like quincy in washington, which is where microsoft was sort of one of the first to do that, to put a big data center in quincy. i'm sure somebody here has probably been there. but to think it was so striking about my visit to these two places was the degree to which facebook saw its data center in a place called -- as a showpiece. facebook embrace it. big celebration for facebook coming in with this essentially enormous machine that was not bring as many do as it might have liked but what sort of deathless bring a lot of spirit pakistan and it turns out as well that apple has noted directly across the street. and these are massive buildings. the first of three buildings planned, 3000 square-foot building, just the size of three wal-mart. wal-mart being the measure of all things big, and uses as much power come uses more power than the entire county that it sits in. and get it is for taking the place of the industry that had left. so you get a sense of it coming out of the earth, coming out of th

[laughter] the sanctimonious presidents have been john quincy adams, james k. polk -- quincy adams, a one-termer, james polk a one-termer by choice but who brought upon himself much more political difficulties during his one term in office, jimmy carter and george w. bush. and i don't think that trait helped any of those presidents. but the historians consistently have rated wilson as consistently in the great or near-great category. and voters, as i say, had a totally different view of him. so let's talk briefly about when the voters and the historians converge. and they converge on the greatest of the great. the men i call leaders of destiny. and i have three criteria for those presidents that we put into the category of leaders of destiny. they have to have -- because i believe that these assessments are valid and up to, you know, in and of themselves not necessarily complete, however. so consistently high ranking in the historians' polls. then consistently or high ranking in terms of the voters. two terms succeeded by their own party x. then a third test th

tavis: so hearing all those disparate sounds, it's all good stuff -- and quincy jones told me that there'sof music -- good music and bad music. so you were hearing a bunch of good stuff, but you're hearing classical from your brother, you're hearing your mother, where your mother likes to hear the musicals. your dad, you mentioned, is playing kingston trio and seeger and you're loving the beatles. hearing all of that stuff in your head, in your ear, how did you end up on this particular musical track? >> it was a long road, and it should have not been such a long road. i should have known it. i played guitar when i was 10. my dad taught me, acoustic guitar. then in the late 1960's or so, all these singer-songwriters started to come into popularity -- simon & garfunkel, joni mitchell, james taylor, jackson browne, crosby, stills & nash, neil young, and i'll forget somebody. laura nero was really important to me. judy collins, bonnie. that was it for me. that was it. that spoke to all my feelings and to what i wanted to do with the guitar. i loved to play it, and it was like the gates of hea

control of this rv -- >> the next thing i knew he put it back in drive and came flying back across quincy street probably at 40 miles an hour. >> they talked to eyewitnesses that saw this go down. >> it went the whole length of his driveway, whole lebt of his backyard, right through a tree, right through a fence and landed in the pool. >> the driver reportedly said that his foot got stuck on the pedal, but his wife says that maybe there was a medical condition, because he is, according to his wife, a diabetic. after he plunged into the pool, his neighbors jumped into the pool to help get steven here. >> if that guy wasn't here, my dad would have drowned. he immediately jumped in and got the guy out. >> emergency crews did show up and used a crane to pull the rv out. >> the driver is okay. the only thing really damage eld, the pool, the rv, whatever fence he drove through. >> and some street cred because apparently steven did say he is really embarrassed. >>> it's the dog days of summer, and summertime means lots of car fires. in this video we got from ktre, you can see two firefighters tr

i asked him about when andrew jackson took on john quincy adams. >> this is the campaign most historiansld point to the most negative ever because of the vicious attacks and personal assaults on jackson and adams. adams forces said jackson's mother had been a common prostitute. they said his wife was a big mist. these were vicious attacks that both sides felt unrestrained in delivering. there was no tv. there was no monitoring of some of the things that were being said so they felt like they could say almost anything. >> then people forget that abe lincoln's re-election got very, very ugly. in what way? >> one of the worst ever. lincoln in the beginning of 1864 was very unpopular. the war wasn't going well. he was being attacked by all sides. he was being called all kinds of names. he was being drug through the mud by the newspapers who wanted him out of office. and so that was a very tough re-election fight. fortunately for lincoln, the battlefield changed. they started winning battles. here in atlanta, 1864, september, that's really where it started to change for him. and his campaign
