greatest presidents, including roosevelt, lincoln, washington, would all have failed in the television age on what is expected in the version of performance of the presidency . franklin delano roosevelt was 19 years younger than joe biden when he was running in his last reelection campaign. he was wa slowly dying during his last campaign. and his doctors knew it. and in fact, he died just over two months after his inauguration in 1945. but during that last year of his life, when he would fall asleep at his desk, sometimes in the middle of signing his name, he was also personally strategizing with consulting with winston churchill, general george marshall, general dwight eisenhower, about the single largest military operation in t history, the d-day invasion in france in the middle of his reelection campaign. president roosevelt had overruled the generals at various stages of world war ii prior to that. and as history shows, he chose a better course than they recommended when he was overruling them. they urged a d- day invasion two years tbefore the american military was actually capable and ready to do it. an old franklin roosevelt nodding off sometimes, overruled th

who could answer the question who is franklin roosevelt?the press was complicit in the deception during his lifetime. no photograph of nor even any political cartoon. fdr in a wheelchair or in any compromise raising position, came to light. america's highest circulating weekly magazine, liberty, became a regular platform to, dismiss any idea of ill health that arose and reinforced the medical myth of fdr. his superhuman vitality beginning with his speech nominating al smith for the in 1928. virtually everything the public knew about fdr is what they heard directly from on the radio. what they read about him in newspapers and magazines. and what they saw in edited newsreels and retouched photographs. even heart disease was not admitted until 25 years after his death, and then only as part of a new and even larger cover up to conceal other serious medical problems. these deceptions dominate the narrative of franklin's health. the scheme was so successful that in fact, except for polio, virtually nothing was known about his health. for decades

franklin roosevelt asked his bodyguard to take him to the department of the hospital where there wereat, why? because franklin roosevelt himself was disabled and wanted to show by example that, despite major injuries, one can achieve enormous heights. wonderful, you absolutely answer, it’s just not the same, there were not only people with damaged limbs, there were people there indefinitely, both wounded and amputated , and so on. the presidential adviser recalled that in one of the hospitals, rooseville asked a bodyguard to lead his wheelchair through the wards where the wounded and amputees were located. the adviser recalls, for the first time i saw tears in the eyes of my boss, he deserves an order, undoubtedly. your order, the pillows are ordinary, and oleg ivanovich, swaying like that, loved to doze, he says: oh, how i love to sit on the street and watch what is happening around. i say: oleg, i’ll kiss you, because this is one of my favorite states. he sits down next to me. looks at me, and i’m a young artist, i say oleg ivanovich? he says: it’s good to be young, he was playing a

we almost lost president franklin d. roosevelt before he was ever inaugurated, lost him to a failed assassination attempt when he was president elect. the bullet that could've killed the president elect, roosevelt, in his motorcade instead wounded the mayor of chicago. the founders had a plan for that. it's called the vice presidency. president franklin delano roosevelt looked like a frail old man when he died in his 80s in office. he was 63 years old. and on his last day of consciousness as president of the united states, he was still better at that job and then any republican who ran against him would have been. leading off our discussion tonight is timothy snyder, professor of history at yale university. he's the author of "the road to unfreedom: russia, europe, america." professor snyder, thank you for joining us tonight. i just all weekend have been waiting for your reaction to what you heard donald trump say about nato and what he says he said to the president of another country, he would violate the treaty, he would violate

inspired by franklin roosevelt's reform plans called the new deal, the shaw unveiled novel and attractivee shaw and the people was land reforms. according to this principle, the landlord peasant system should have been abolished and agricultural lands should have been demarcated and sold to the farmers so everyone could work on their own plot of land. the government thought that it was going to change the iranian economy from landlored peasant system to a free economy, but things did not go the way the shaw expected. "the farmers could take out loans to buy plots of land, those who had to give a third of their harvest to the landlords should now pay the hefty sums of installment for the loans to the banks. some of them worked very hard so they could pay the installments, but sometimes they had to sell off their cattle to pay the installments, and some of them were desperate and hungry from..." from the start and they had to sell their plots of land to the first bid and at meger prices to the land grabbers who had set traps to occupy their lands in order to pay off the loans. they thought

way, the leaders of these countries understood, this is what, for example, american president franklin rooseveltere is an excerpt from the telegram of us president roosevelt. literature continued to believe in justice, in politics, in education, in the need to fulfill agreements. we talked about this a lot in our programs. well, here’s another recently discovered fact, it’s surprising. look, january 19, 3 months before its adoption, april 28, a month before the start. we need to tell the truth, and we are ready to tell the truth, and we are ready to listen to the truth, our officials, cultural figures, regional leadership, people who came from the nineties or were raised by those who came from the nineties, they are ready for the truth, because the truth is a cruel thing, the truth requires sacrifice. in comfort, in convenience, in disruption of usual relationships, and so on and so forth. in this regard, i want to quote another of our wonderful writers, our classic, nikolai liskov. this is a quote from his story lefty. tell the emperor that the british don’t clean their guns with bricks. so tha

you franklin roosevelt's new deal, although not perfect, did make inroads. and so you know, there was a sense of loss when we're talking about a national loss. i think that one was truly national comparison to how people felt when lincoln passed away. but to get at the health issue and there's a there's a lot of controversy over this because it's unclear what fdr knew himself. it's unclear what eleanor knew herself. it seemed did not or didn't use or selectively chose not to know. and david warner, who wrote this chapter, i think does a really good job of thoughtfully trying to kind of piece together what were they aware of? what were they not of? and it seems like they knew he was, but maybe the doctors didn't indicate quite how bad it was. and this was before presidents had physicals and reported results. so the american people really didn't know. but it wasn't like they didn't know because there was this big cover up, i think is the conclusion that david draws. yeah. and how you know, another thing that a president has to do is not only choose a good vice

view, and at the end of this declaration, which only mentions vinson churchill, stalin and franklin rooseveltere is no point for signing or understanding commonalities from iran. our leaders were present , including brigadier general amir ahmadi and mr. yazdan panah, and sir reeder bullard, the minister of power of england , can be seen at this table, mr. bullard himself is also sitting here, of course he noticed. it was that the global power of the international system is molting and england no longer has the former power, but a new power in the world, so to speak, the world is gaining power . first, they should face this movement with failure, and then they can convince iran that the joint american-british coup on august 28 against the iranian people. he takes it and these things will affect iran after the coup. pahlavi, who actually had a weak position from 1320 to 1332 with the august 28 coup, he describes this coup and the result of this coup in this way to the americans that i am my own monarchy. i am indebted to god, the people, and you, the americans, after the coup d'etat on august 2

relations will be with mexico, with brazil, with argentina, as was the case under theodore, and not franklin rooseveltat ’s about when what awaits them, of course, is to cross out 100 years of their history, the americans are not ready, for this they probably need some kind of, well, i won’t say, that there is a civil war, but some very strong shock within the united states itself. second moment. as for the europeans, the situation here is more interesting, because in principle they had ideas for creating a common military bloc even before the second world war, but few of us remember that the so-called european integration did not even begin after the second world war, and back in the distant twenty -ninth-thirty years they had a pan-european project, the creation, by the way, look how interesting, without the soviet union without great britain on the basis of... a franco-german alliance of their own large army, and in the first 3 years hitler also played this game, we forget, there was a pact of four, great britain, france, germany and italy, as soon as hitler came to power, it really didn’t come int

but the franklin roosevelt dominated things for all of the justices, too, didn't he? he he let's talk about a few of the personalities talk about that shift in the from the court packing that disaster all the way through in the next few years how suddenly the court turned over and you've got a new set of personalities or a largely new set of personalities there. it's remarkable story. and actually, it's one that i think is under appreciate it. you know, everybody knows about the failed court packing plan, but not as many people realize that by the summer of 1941, due to a wave resignations and deaths, fdr had appointed some seven of the nine justices and he had elevate an eight to be chief justice. eight of the nine owed their positions to fdr. it was by the biggest impact on the supreme court of any president since george washington. and it wasn't just the number of justices. they were all extremely to fdr in some instances too close to they had very, very close personal relationships. and just to kind of briefly get the players on the table, they sort of into three
