admiral who comes out of fredericksburg texas landlocked wants to go to west point and going to annapolis becomes a steady growing within the navy to command the bureau of personnel with a good steady career. what happens? december 71941 the pacific fleet is destroyed. the navy and the nation turned to chester go to pearl harbor and take command of the pacific fleet the problem is it is sunk. it is at the bottom of pearl harbor luckily the carriers were out there is a few submarines. he takes command not on one of those gorgeous battleships in his service white uniform but in a set of khakis watching bodies being pulled out of the smoking hole. that is resiliency squares his shoulder with people like macarthur and methodically and slowly he takes apart the japanese empire. that is the arizona folks. if you have not been to pearl harbor and gone to the temple of the navy, go. see the arizona. that is the start of world war ii. that is missouri. that is the ship upon which the surrender document was signed. this is the beginning and the end of the second world war. what happened in the midd

don't think it's working in the same way that it had in decades past ok it's got alexander in the annapolis i mean i think that's the point here is that i am actually for capitalism ok i don't want any misunderstanding but i'm i want to work for everyone or more people than it's working for now ok because we we see you know we hear you know depending on what side of the political aisle you are you know how well the economy is doing well it's doing really well for rich people and that is undeniable when it goes a little bit further down i think it's a lot more nuanced than the talking points that you hear on c.n.n. or fox go ahead alexandra. i think i think you're right peter it's always more nuanced than the talking points from here on fox but i mean adam smith himself wasn't naive and he recognized he wrote in his wealth of nations about the that that that free markets would produce inequality he wrote for everyone rich men there will be $500.00 poor and right but for him the universal opulence that free markets would produce was worth was worth it and we see that empirically objectively t

[laughing] >> i enjoyed this book very much and it left me with two conclusions which i'd like you to speak to. my first conclusion from it was that people, countries go to war still mostly for economic reasons as opposed to philosophical or political reasons. and the other one, what are the reasons why george washington had so much trouble particularly in the new york area and those battles because we didn't have an 83 couldn't move troops quickly and the royal navy was amazing and it wasn't only tell the french came in and blockaded and grade the siege of yorktown that we actually able to win that war, and we almost didn't win that war. and by the way, my nephews who were in middle school are so

probably be simultaneous with the attack by grant here who has been reinforced by burn side's army from annapolis. it will be impossible to send any reenforcements to the valley from this army. i have instructed the general communicate with you. a late report from the citizen places general sigel at martinsburg but this conflicts with warmer reports. i am very respectfully your obedient servant. you'll notice the emphasis on the western part. west virginia is the area he's concerned about t. union has been attempting cavalry raids on the railroad which is a vital link connecting richmond into knoxville. the union knows that strategic importance and continues threatening it. lee gives brkd choices. he doesn't tell him exactly how to go about it. he gives him suggestions, tools, commanders he should coordinate with. it's almost similar to the way lee would delegate tasks to some of his other commanders such as stonewall jackson. now sigel also sent a report on may 1st. he writes from bunker hill, virginia, may 1st, 1864 to lieutenant general grant. first off, he forwards a dispatch from general coo

george -- at the enof the american revolution, george goes to the continental congress in baltimore, annapolis, and goes and makes a short speech and lays down his sword, surrendering his command and goes back to fredericksburg. when king george iii that is told that george washington laid down his sword to become a planter he said he will be regarded as the greatest man in the world, and that was the king of england, the head of the british empire who is saying george washington would be e.r.a. as the greatest man the world. high praise, incredibly high praise, and clear, it's clear that these qualities, the integrity, honest, courage, mod city, two term limit. wasn't mandated by law, washington says two terms enough and that becomes the standard of all american presidents until franklin roosevelt. where did he get these from? clearly from his mother. so she should be regarded as not as the founder of the america, nothing like that but simply the inspiration for the founding of america or one of the great inspirations for the founding of america. that's really why i wanted to write the book,

episcopal priest and worked in honduras and then with women suffering from domestic violence in annapolisd yet he radiated a sort of holy joy that was unaccountable to me. dorothy day has a line that christian should act in a way that doesn't make sense unless god exists. and wes was like that. so i saw these two different kinds of goodness which were inspiring to me. but it wasn't a problem because i didn't believe in god anyway. so is just like two things. but then over the course of a number of years, as a friend of mine says, reality over flew the categories i had to understand it. give certain moments of transcendence, certain moments as i described earlier were you become aware of other people's souls. and if your journalist, your writing stories about people that can't just be about a bag of genetic material. the only reason we work hard at journalism is if other people have souls. that has an infinite consequence. and from there it was just the most boring, i started reading religious stuff. if you start going on a religious journey people send you books. so i got about seven or 5

this is nathaniel in annapolis, maryland. caller: good morning, thanks for taking my call.s is this crazy thing that just happen. trump needs better advisors because his foreign-policy is to hire his friends. u.s. -- the u.s. is not responsible for the world and there is no point in killing americans for the u.s.'s personal needs. congress never approved this and i think they went beyond their station and felt like making a decision without asking anyone and they really need to plan ahead before they do stupid stuff like this. host: carl out of massachusetts, you are next, good morning. caller: good morning. thank you for c-span. i cannot stand donald trump, but that is beside the point. i want to remind the other amocrats that if we had democratic president, he would do the same thing. war.parties love of they will argue, debate, fight over domestic issues tooth and nail, but when it comes to foreign policy, they will all agree, all we are doing is creating enemies all over the world, we don't belong there and i like what that lady, i think her name was isabella, i turned

joanne, in annapolis maryland, and independent. have a comment in a question i would appreciate if you would not cut me off. first of all the independent to called from indiana is no manyendent, and like so alternate facts coming out of the white house, which is being kind, the truth is that the inspector general came out and administration did not surveilled the trump campaign. this is another spin, and another lie, being propagated. trial, thet to the so-called procedures that mcconnell was following. if anybody knows anything about truth, the constitution, and the way trials are conducted in this country, it is not the way mcconnell has set up the rules. there's evidence, witnesses, and documents. argument, opening and closing arguments. thisact that he is calling to be similar to the clinton impeachment is a lie. i was alive during the clinton impeachment, i was alive during the nixon impeachment, this is much worse. my question, to what extent will the chief justice have the right to intervene and stop the travesty that mcconn
