american revolution when thomas jefferson lived in paris he communicated in code with his protege james madison about their federalist political enemies jefferson did it again when he became president nineteen zero one developing an even more elaborate code to communicate with his most trusted aide merryweather lewis out of fear the military officers in the american army were reading president jefferson's mail and that the military officers were thinking of pulling a military coup to overthrow his administration. the result was the jefferson on louis's suggestion fired two thirds of all the commissioned officers and cut the size of the army by about eighty percent. fast forward to today police helicopters police trucks that can use infrared to see inside your house and g.p.s. units cops can attach to your car in every case there's a legitimate police use for these technologies as well as an incredible potential for abuse the fourth amendment part of the bill of rights that jefferson demanded madison put into the constitution as the price of getting virginia's ratification is one sentence long.

>> james madison good ole james madison -- >> bill: jimmy they call him. >> i call him jimmy too.constitutional problems which, if you believe him then some of our most popular programs today like medicare, social security, are unconstitutional. >> bill: i'll tell you one thing, he refused to sign a declaration of a day of prayer and said that was not the business of the federal government. i'm sure that james madison nor thomas jefferson by the way, together they wrote the religious freedom -- the exact name for the state of virginia. which really is the basis of our separation of church and state. neither one of them would attend a national prayer breakfast as president of the united states. i can tell you that. >> especially now. >> bill: on the issues that are still alive in the state -- in the state of the union president obama talked about -- which i thought was something -- how could anybody be against this? universal preschool so every kid in america, not just the kids whose parents can afford to send them to preschool, every kid would have that advantage of pre-k educatio

james madison often described as one of the founders of the constitution actually warned again all the problems that parties could actually create. still, our country over time, which we now well know adopted the british system of competing parties, and either or approach the political process that goes all the way back to greeks. in the 1720s, the whigs and tories crossed the atlantic and they evolved into the federally same non-federalist. ultimately, involving even more to democrats than republicans. two parties are now the foundation of our american political and governmental progress. the senate chambers divided into those two parties with a center aisle that has for a long period of time, allowed for a metaphor called crossing the aisle, which is defined over those many decades the pews is an approach to meaningful bipartisanship. he crosses the idol. the primary defining issue in my view that has been so for 100 years is what is the proper role of government? there's two very distinct philosophies and ideologies based on that the book question. what is the role of government? it

the witherspoon institute, a james madison program and princeton do a good job to retrieve that makes the idea real to apply them to different segments of foreign policy. there are fine scholars to do this type of work and their places here in washington d.c. spending time doing this. other our students you're interested in these things and what is the established orthodoxy today. there are plenty of opportunities thank there are plenty of opportunities thanks to heritage federal are available to find out where they are, how you apply and starting to work and starting to work and politics are policy with the institutional problems that i talk about. >> i am curious germany was the origin of social welfare that they have a strong economy. do you have any insight? >> i talk about that because germany is the allied air the modern welfare state as we know it the great lover of freedom he set up the welfare state because urban industrial workers were voting for the social democratic party. he thought how we deal with it? we show them we can take care of their needs it wasn't noble but how

monticello where thomas jefferson and our declaration of independence and close by montpelier where james madison was instrumental in drafting the bill of rights. i think you can understand that, as a woman, it is very important not to place undue burdens on our second amendment right to choose to defend ourselves. i do not know what weapon she used -- >> my point is, the example you used is one that would not dare an argument against the proposal that is before us, because that remington express is a weapon that would be perfectly allowed. >> would it have been unreasonable for her to use a different gun to protect her child? >> i think if she was using a 100 -- let me put it another way. she would clearly have an adequate ability to protect her family without the need for a 100-round piece. >> how can you say that? you are a large man. you are -- tall. you are not a young mother who has a young child with her. i am passionate about this position because you cannot understand, you are not a woman stuck in her house, having to defend her children, not able to leave her child, not able to seek saf

they were moved several years ago from the satellite location out of several them into the actual james madison building on the other side of the hill, that's how much interest there has been in the rusher papers, although you haven't, mine is the only book about him and as far as i'm it will be the only book about him. so these people communicated to each other on paper, and that's a lot of what my book is based on, plus interviews with dozens of people including extensive interviews of russia and extensive interviews with mr. buckley. they were very candid with each other. rusher in buckley in particular. in their differing judgments about what positions "national review" should take up what he should focus on. doctor edwards alluded to the importance of the goldwater campaign for the future of the conservative movement. i don't think there's time and perhaps there isn't any need to stress that to this audience any further than it already has been. very similar event. rusher was in the thick of it. more than anyone, he probably persuaded goldwater to at least remain open to the possibility of

james madison said if people were angels, we would not need a government, and if the government was run by angels, we would not need checks and balances. he concluded that angels were in short supply, as they are today. we need checks and balances. the fifth amendment is clear -- no deprivation of life and liberty without due process of law, and we are depriving americans of their life when we target and in a drone attack. i understand it is under military circumstances. these are the enemy combatants. i would like to suggest to you that you consider, and madam chairman, i would like to suggest that we consider a fisa-type court process where an american citizen is what the targeted for a lethal strike, but having the executive being the prosecutor, judge, jury, an executioner all in one is very contrary to traditions and the laws of this country, particularly in a situation where there is time. if a soldier on a battlefield does not have time to go to court, if you are planning to strike over a matter of days, weeks, or months, there is an opportunity to at least go to some outside of

he is the james madison professor of political economy at princeton university, and contributing writer to "the new york times" economix blog. thank you for being with us. >> i am very honored by it. i should have added that i was delivered by a midwife, and of course my mother. i once told that to a member of the american medical association. he said, it shows. i am not sure what he meant. i divided my written statement into three parts. is our medical capability efficiently used? the answer is no. the second is, what public policy levers does congress have, given that we want more primary-care physicians, to move them into that field, and also to practice where they are needed? the third is, to what extent can financial incentives be used, which you have already answered him and talked about. the traditional model of workforce forecasting has been to focus on physician population ratios, as if all the other people who work in the primary care team did not matter. my whole career has been to say we should use non-physician workers far more imaginatively, he and let them practice indepe

but the man who's given the most credit for the most work of our constitution, james madison, was not at all offended, didn't think the constitution was offended by having church down the hall. so i'll always be grateful to my friend from virginia, mr. forbes, for suggesting, let's have church. and we came together and we had -- they set it up, just reminded us of what it must have been like, except they wouldn't have had steel and plastic chairs. but we had a worship service and what was particularly great, i thought, was the prayers both from democrats and republicans were historic prayers that had been prayed in this capitol for many, many years ago, as part of our history. it was a historical service but there it was, in the same place that the voice of thomas jefferson and james madison would have echoed in song and in verse and in prayer. such a rich history we have. and i'm sure my friend from virginia has heard people call, write nasty notes saying, keep your religion at home. when i have read historical prayers, historical proclamations by george washington, abraham lincoln,

just like james madison said, this is what you need to arrive the republic.ant to start with the drone issue. in a speech last year, the president spoke more openly with the public about the use of drones for public killing of al qaeda members. my question is, what should be done next to ensure that funnel conversation about drones, so that the american people are brought into this debate and have a full understanding of what rules the government is going to observe when it conducts targeted killing? >> i think this hearing is one of the things that can be done because i think that this type of discourse between the legislative and executive branch is important. and i think that they are going to continue speeches given by the executive branch to explain our counter terrorism programs, and i think there's a miss impression on the part of american people that we strike and nothing could be further from the trut. we only take last resort to save lives when there's know other alternative. so we want to make sure there's an understanding, and the people standing

you know, this was james madison's idea, that you would have a presidency and a congress opposing each other. that way no one would get too much power. but if madison came back tonight, i think he would tear out what little hair he had. and the reason is that you saw someone like andrew jackson or harry truman campaigning against congress well and good. but it's only in recent years that you've had this almost nuclear game of chicken that we're seeing now and we also saw in 1995 with bill clinton and newt gingrich. and i think one dangerous thing about right now is that on both sides, people tend to be a little bit sanguine in remembering 1995. through a political lens, there may even be some democrats who say it turned out to be good for the democrats because clinton was able to position himself as a moderate, keeping the barbarians from the gate. and on the republican side they can say yes, we took some heat for being confrontational, but didn't we win both houses of congress in 1996? so i think that memory is a very dangerous thing. and it certainly isn't a break on this rush to the

jefferson, james madison, and james monroe, gathered in 1917 to lay the cornerstone for the first university of virginia building. this gave life to the university that would become into a person's words "and institution on which the portents of the country may depend." gatherings of national significance have been held here since the university is beginning. in 1940, president franklin roosevelt came to uva to speak about the country's future as the nation stood on the brink of war. in 1989, president george h. w. bush assembled america's governors in charlottesville for an education summit that led to the development of national goals for education. many other national and global leaders have come to these grounds for discussions that shaped our goals and aspirations as a people. today continuing in this tradition, secretary of state john carey will speak about the importance of effective american foreign policy and diplomacy. -- kerry. while he is our 68 secretary of state, thomas jefferson served as our country's first secretary of state beginning in 1790. in the spring of 1793 as he was

the other is making sure that the american people are brought in these debates just like james madison said. this is what you need to preserve a republic. and i want to start with the drone issue. in a speech last year, the president instructed you to be more open with the public about the use of drones to conduct targeted killings of al qaeda members. so my question is, what should be done next to ensure that public conversation about drones so that the american people are brought in to this debate and have a full understanding of what rules the government's going to observe when it conducts targeting killing? >> i think this hearing is one of the things that can be done because i think this type of discourse is critically important. i believe there need to be continued speeches that are going to be given by the executive branch to explain the counterterrorism programs. i think there's a misimpression on some american people who believe we take strikes to punish terroristses for past transgressi transgressions. nothing could be fourther from the truth. we only take actions as a last r
