when abraham lincoln was nominated in the committee brought the news to him at his home in springfield, there was a side to sentences long. friends and neighbors we did in the street while bonfires lit up the evening. he said "and i will not longer defer the pleasure of taking each of you by the hand." i wish i could do the same. take each of you bite the hand -- by the hand. if i could do so, i would thank you individually for your competence and trust. as i am sure lincoln did, we could pause and talk a while about the questions after uppermost in your mind. i am sure that one topic would dominate all the rest. that topic is the future. this is a good time to think about the future. this convention is celebrating its 100th anniversary. it is even more for looking ahead to the demanding future. just as on your stay, we instinctively think "i wonder where i will be a year from now?" so it is natural for the republican party to ask today even 100ll happen years from now?" if we are as courageous and forward looking and as determined under the bright of the 20th century, as abraham linco

abraham lincoln lost his life, but he did not fail. the next president of the united states will face challenges which in some ways will be greater than those of washington or lincoln, because for the first time in our nation's history, an american president will face not only the problem of restoring peace abroad but of restoring peace at home. without god's help and your help, we will surely fail. but with god's help and your help, we shall surely succeed. my fellow americans, the long, dark night for america is about to end. >> [applause] >> the time has come for us to leave the valley of despair and climb the mountain so that we may see the glory of the dawn, a new day for america and a new dawn for peace and freedom in the world. >> [applause] >> >> in florida, a hurricane warning has been issued and governor rick scott has declared a state of emergency republican officials have announced that they're canceling monday's convention events in tampa and they'll start tuesday, and vice president joe biden has postponed his planned tri

i love that we get to go to mount rushmore and find the hidden room behind abraham lincoln's head. no one is ever going to look at mount rushmore the same way again. and i will tell you it's amazes how the novels and the show and the heroes' books, you know, harry houdini is one of the heroes in the "heroes for my son." and he's one of the heroes because when he was younger they said, you know, he lost his dad can, they said you have to take care of the family, eric weiss -- his real name -- and he should have worked in a factory. that was the safe job. but he did the most daring thing of all, he did what he loved. that's the lesson, right? do what you love. take that chance. find what you love and do it. that's why he succeeded. that was the great escape. because escaping's simple. when we did the episode of houdini on decoded, we had the ending, and we were writing the ending and what happened, whether he was killed, but we couldn't sum him up. and i actually went and grabbed my copy of "heroes for my son" and read that. we have other topics. the other topics i want to look at, t

night was a man and a top hat, bearing a striking resemblance to the first republican president, abrahamcoln. george engelbach previously served one term in the missouri house of representatives, alongside todd akin, the congressman who is now running against clair mccaskill for the senate, who ignited a firestorm as saying is rare for women to become pregnant from rate because it is legitimate, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down. george engelbach ran unsuccessfully for reelection, now a member of the missouri republican delegation at the national convention here in tampa. what do you think of your senatorial candidate todd akin's and his comments? >> one, i served with them for two years in the missouri house. i never, ever heard him say anything derogatory or of color. he has apologized. he has asked for forgiveness. and since when can we not forgive? i forgive. if there was no forgiveness, we're all in trouble. >> the entire leadership here at the republican convention, paul ryan it a personal call to romney, they have called for him to step down. >> i know

he attributed it to abraham lincoln had is not correct, you serve your party best when you serve your country first. that's what all of us in this country want to see in our politicians. i think that in 1980, dad would have been a great vice presidential nominee. he was the leader of the republicans in the house of representatives. that's what paul ryan is today. and i think the time is really right for governor romney and congressman ryan to lead this country into a bright 21st century that reestablishes our american exceptionalism and the foundations on which this country was built. >> neil: jimmy, i guess i'm expressing -- i love your dad. i knew him for decades and we talked over a lot of issues, rangeled over them, including four years ago in the middle of the melt down when he was for the bailout of the banks and i was not. it led to this famous exchange. >> why not let -- however hellish it might be tomorrow, if the house rejects it, let her rip! >> wow, let her rip. like the hissy fit you called it on monday? >> neil: however hellish it might be and however hellish it might be

when you talk about abraham lincoln and fdr, talk about lbj, he talked about people willing to fight for the courage of their convictions. so from your perspective, and what ever happened to that kind of attitude on the part of some folks in washington? >> they are rewarded for not being transforming leaders at standing up for the people back home. they are rewarded in the language they understand. they raise money for their campaign, they don't worry about a primary challenger, they get reelected. it was only the last two congressional rows that 96% of the members of the house will be reelected. it went down the slightly under 90% recently because of the surge of the tea party candidates. but still, it is the highest re- election re in the western world. it applies at the state legislative level as well. what is the weakening of the labor movement and its weak leaders with the exception of the california nurses association. you'll see a tough advocacy, pro labor california nurses association has a comparison with what is going on in the afl-cio in washington, d.c.. the media is not

back in 1858, abraham lincoln said this to the republican party and i quote him because he probably could have said it during the last week or so. hostile elements and a quote from 1958, yes, yet all of these elements agreed on one justice, to arrest and take it in the courts, today the task of preserving and enlarging freedom at home and safeguarding it from the forces of tyranny abroad is great enough to challenge all our resources and to require all our strengths. anyone who joins us, we welcome. those who dot do not care about our cause, we don't expect to enter or race. and receipt our republicanism so focused and so dedicated not to make by unthinking and stupid labels. i would remind you in defense of will be ty is no vice. thank you. thank you. thank you. and let me remind you also that moderation and the pursuit of justice is no virtue. the beauty of the very system we republicans are forced to restore and revitalize. there is the beauty of the federal system of ours is in reconciliation diversity with unity. we must not see lal lays and honest differences of opinion and no mat a

there will be events in philadelphia and reprints of this book because it shows that abraham lincoln wasn't the first person who spoke for black people's freedom. we celebrate the emancipation proclamation but it connell goes so far and before him there were others and there were people like franklin and benjamin rush and anthony benezet and many others who took the ideas of these people and they deserve a great response and we see them talk about films made about him and discussions and taken out this name every now and then. benjamin rush said it best. anthony benezet started fighting in philadelphia, there were only a handful and now three quarters with him. in later points, 1840s and 1850s james borden was a great and i slavery leader and praised him at the black conventions. his book semicircle was one of the first in reconstruction's school. it was reprinted again and again during the heyday of the black power movement in the 1970s by new york times print. these ideas are coming back and discussion of great people like this. americans sometimes forget the beauty of those who ma

in philadelphia they were reprints of this book because it shows importantly that abraham lincoln was the black people of freedom. of course we celebrate the emancipation proclamation. before him there were others and there were people like benjamin franklin benjamin rush, thomas clarkson and many others who took the ideas. so in fact, they deserve the great response. and i think that now we have seen the talk about them, a production made about him. we've seen a discussion and so is taken out this name every now and then to a person. benjamin rashid said it best. there were only a handful about three quarters of the prophet are with him. i think the major points in the 1840s and 1850s, james fortin was agreed to antislavery , person of the black conventions. and he was one of the first books used in reconstruction schools. it was reprinted again and again and during the heyday of white power movement in the 1970s by none other than "the new york times" presence of how these ideas are coming back in this discussion of people like this. americans are sometimes forget about the beauty o

conservatives who wanted to keep the traditional american value of slavery and fought progressive abraham lincoln so fiercely it led to an incredibly bloody and horrific civil war in the aftermath of that civil war conservative supported jim crow laws to keep freed slaves as second class citizens conservatives oppose woman's women's suffrage all the way up until the nineteenth amendment was ratified in one nine hundred twenty and some still to this day oppose it when women got the right votes when it all went downhill because that that's when votes started being cast with emotion and maternal instincts that government ought to reflect. well think in service of elites opposed every advancement made by average working people from the forty hour work week to child labor laws to workplace safety laws during the one nine hundred fifty s. conservatives embrace mccarthyism and the witch hunts that ruined the lives of thousands of americans in the one nine hundred sixty s. conservatives oppose the civil rights act which finally ended legal discrimination in america. you see every single advance o

abraham lincoln lost his life, but he did not fail. the next president of the united states will face challenges which in some ways will be greater than those of washington or lincoln, because for the first time in our nation's history, an american president will face not only the problem of restoring peace abroad but of restoring peace at home. without god's help and your help, we will surely fail. but with god's help a your help, we shall surely succeed. my fellow americans, the long, dark night for america is about to end. >> [applause] >> the time has come for us to leave the valley of despair and climb the mountain so that we may see the glory of the dawn, a new day for america and a new dawn for peace and freedom in the world. >> [applause] >> journal", sunday at 7:00 on c-span. >> the 2000 republican convention was held in philadelphia and the nominee was texas governor george w. bush, son of president george herbert walker bush. governor bush selected richard cheney as his running mate and that election would ultimately be deci

instead here's tom showing another way to end religious extremism across the middle east take a look abraham maslow the famous psychologist once said if the only tool you have is a hammer and every problem looks like a nail right now our government believes our only tool to defeat muslim extremism is a hammer of the military but as we as we've seen this decade military force breeds more extremism it doesn't stop it on the other hand a more effective way to squash this extremism is through education as greg mortenson discovered he's the founder of pennies for peace an organization that is funded one hundred thirty schools educated more than fifty thousand kids in afghanistan and pakistan mostly girls mortenson discovered that in the communities where he built schools for girls. girls who have traditionally been illiterate in both afghanistan and pakistan the people then kicked out the taliban or in some cases taliban members quit the taliban some even became teachers in the schools after having left behind the taliban as incredible as it may sound at first simply by educating women and girls

the bigger that they get, the more harm they do to the economy and the less chance you have, as abraham lincoln put it, to improve your modern life. >> how is it that free markets make it moral? is reality the heart of capitalism. >> reality is the basis of capitalism. based on values, based on meeting the needs and wants of other people. contrary to the hollywood cartoon character of business people being villainess and running their hands through the misery of others, you don't get money unless you provide a product or service that somebody else wants. so without us even realizing it, it enhances humanity. you have to create chains of cooperation. you have to get people to work with you. you have to persuade people to buy what you are offering. in that sense, free markets open up for creativity. anyone from anywhere can go in and do something. most new efforts don't succeed. but by golly, you have a chance to do it. it breaks barriers between communities and ethnic groups. he started business, you want to get the best people possible. that is a recent phenomenon. for many societies. y

direct links with the rebels while trying to distance themselves from the syrian national council dr abraham from the university in amman says by backing the opposition washington is only adding to the violence in syria. the rebels as you have seen are made up of the front bands there are outlaws there are muslim brothers there are al qaida supporters and the from places they cooperate or they compete against one another sometimes using guns so the purpose here is to destroy the country and many syrians and arabs have come to see that for what it is. syria is supposed to fall into chaos and fragmentation as has happened and somalia before and so the united states has been engaged and implementing the design of creation of chaos in syria so what we have here is an armed rebellion that is being supported financed and politically covered why these people the dollars mainly money earned from selling oil and in the service of imperialism and these people have been raising and waving the flags of freedom and democracy but we have seen some of their cross at these they have committed in syria i wou
