but he did spend a lifetime in philadelphia and initially was very close to adams, but he and adams had a little falling out and then he got close to jefferson, had a wonderful correspondence with jefferson and when adams got elected president while jefferson was vice president when the rift develops between adams and jefferson over a number of things but largely over france, priestley decides to pretty much through his lot in with jefferson and he starts writing having come to america to come stay out of trouble he wasn't quite able to do that so he starts writing some pamphlets kind of fan support of jefferson and more explicitly very critical lot adams and he had a colleague named thomas cooper who grew even more vitriolic attacks on adams. and so, when the alien and sedition acts are passed, thomas cooper is actually arrested as one of the few people arrested in alien and sedition and priestley is put on the hit list of people who should be deported for their criticism of the adams administration. and it is an extraordinary turning point in the country's history because right there

in his eulogy to monroe, john quincy adams, ann adams served monroe eight years as his secretary of stateand had grown very close to him. in his eulogy to monroe, quincy adams told americans to compare the map of north america and 1783 with the map of that empire as it is now. the change more than that of any other man living or dead was the work of james monroe. behold him, strengthening his country for defense, sustaining her rights, dignity and honor abroad, smoothing her dissensions and consolidating her acerbities at home, strengthening and consolidating the federal edifice of his country's union until he was entitled to say like augustus caesar of his imperial city he had found her, build a brick and left her clavet and gleaming marble. such, my fellow citizens, was james monroe. and the last of our founding fathers. thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen. [applause] thank you very much. [applause] thank you. i will be happy to take any questions. yes, sir. >> i think you answered your own question. let me see it back to you and see if you agree why he didn't gain notoriety. noto

adam, i don't think your job's in peril. i think you need those four newspapers covering that story because i think that's part of the smith. maybe the truth that we tell ourselves as american, that one of the things you always say when you describe yourself to others. >> fosh lawyers. >> is we are a culture that >> foreign lawyers. is we are are the culture that when we have a conversation are in the front page of our major newspapers and this is a deep, deep part of who we are. i think what i like all of you to represent on -- is that because the supreme court is such a great institution and we pay so much attention to it? or is that because the fact that we see the supreme court that way. which arrows do they run? i'd be interested to what extent you think that's true, that we really are much more law focused. and this is something really distinctive. or ising this we like to tell about ourselfs? >> starting the last part. i do think the supreme court occupies a spral role in the america y key in the way that high courts

and have a look at abigail adams' will. when i was writing this book, i came to the year 1816 which is two years before her death and ten years before her husband's death and came upon her will in the microfilm, and most of the biographers when they get to the will, okay, describe the contents of the will and move on. and i almost moved on too. but looking at that will something troubled me, and you don't have to be able to read her handwriting which was never good and was even worse in 1816, two years before her death. you don't need to know the specifics to be able to read a word of the will, the very existence of the will, something's wrong here. and it reminded me of something that a little exchange i'd had with peter drummy who's the librarian here at the massachusetts historical society. abigail's will, her will, what's the main purpose of a will? >> [inaudible] >> to distribute property. she's distributing property in her will. what's wrong with that? >> [inaudible] >> yeah. people are saying it in different ways, so

and we have rebecca adams and dan vergana.e's from the university of yale and university of virginia where he got his undergraduate degree. he was former director of human genome research, for how long? >> 15 years. >> and you were home schooled until the fifth grade. and you founded an institute for religion and science. >> a foundation. >> is there concern of being the head of n.i.h.? >> there was some concern, i read with it in "new york times," the concern about a scientist that openly talked about his religious base and maybe not be as hard nosed in scientific projects as he should be. anyone who worked with me in those 15 years in the human genome project would say it was not an issue. and no one would say my particular interest of religion got in the way, and i promise it won't get in the way of n.i.h.. and as a compromise i resigned that foundation, and i don't want to be distracted of what the president has asked me to do. >> time for one more round of question. >> can you say about that flack of being evangelical. wh

then john quincy adams, who was the son of john adams, john quincy adams was the sixth president. some think he may have been the smartest president, there's no way to know. but he was a brilliant man, the youngest diplomat ever appointed to the america when he was 11 years of age. he knew all the founders, he was -- his father, john adams, allowed him to accompany him to so many events and things he knew the founders, he knew the founding and john quincy adams in 1821, on july 4 said, the highest glory of the american rev luge was this, it connected -- revolution was this, it connected in one bond the principles of the civil government with the principles of christianity. from the day of the declaration, they, the american people, were bound by the laws of god which they all and by the laws of the gospel which they nearly all acknowledged as the rules of their conduct. noah webster, 1833, said, quote, the moral principles and precepts contained in the scriptures ought to form the basis of all our civil constitutions and laws. all the miseries and evils which men suffer from vice,

adam, you track politics around the world, what do you see? >> well, i think there are some other trends. taxes, generally speaking, have gone up. certainly they've gone up in both britain and the united states. deficit, again, is for whoever wins the general election in britain is going to be a massive problem, and actually, a lot of the european countries are not that far behind. but, again, i -- you know, my feeling is that there is a certain kind of realization of the limits of what government can do certainly in the -- those countries where the government has assumed a bigger role. i was at a public meeting with a member of cameron's team and they came out and said that was absolutely fantastic, because did you notice how nobody asked me for money. and what we're not hearing and what we probably won't hear that much over the general election, but will happen afterwards, is undoubtedly going to be not just taxes, which i think probably pretty much have reached their limits, but real cuts in spending. and i think we are going to see that ac

is with deep sorrow that we remember, from 1st battalion the royal anglian regiment, lance corporal adam drane, who died in afghanistan on monday. my thoughts and, i know, those of the whole house will be with his family and friends. every life lost during this year and during previous years is a personal tragedy, and we mourn every single loss. we mourn heroes whose acts of bravery recognize that a more stable afghanistan means a safer britain, and the scale of their sacrifice does not diminish but strengthens our resolve. this morning, i had meetings with ministerial colleagues and others. in addition to my duties in the house, i shall have further such meetings later today. >> robert neill. >> thank you, mr. speaker. i am sure that the whole house would endorse the prime minister's tribute to the lance corporal, and endorse his sentiments as well. last week the prime minister told the house that spain was in the g-20 and that it had been in recession for longer than this country -- neither of which, upon checking, turns out to be correct. do we conclude from that that the pain in spai

quincy adams watched from a distance and then made comments in his diary.s the tiny writing. where did they keep the diary? >> at the library of congress. >> how did henry clay relate to him? the scene in the oval office or whatever office at the time where she came to visit him and why did he visit? >> i do not think i know. it is a touching scene to me. i think it is the most touching scene in the book. henry clay had been a great opponent of jackson democracy, the jackson democrats, all of his life. he had sought the presidency three times. three times supported. -- thrarawted. he had a young son killed in the war. you think that would be enough that henry clay would never want to go near james polk. he stops by on a courtesy call. polk goes down to the parlor and says i was not sure you would be pleased to receive me, mr. president, but my friends have told me i should come to see you. they had this beautiful byplay. then polk has a dinner for clay a few days later. it is a really lovely scene. >> where did you find the details on this? >> in the diary.

john quincy adams was a sanctimonious man. jimmy carter was a sanctimonious man. george w. bush, in my view, was a sanctimonious man. maybe we can debate that. woodrow wilson was a sanctimonious man. and sanctimony at that level of politics tends to be a trait that causes problems. polk was probably the most successful of the sanctimonious presidents. people can argue about woodrow wilson. i happen to believe that he interjected himself into world war i in ways that led inevitably to world war ii, but that's a huge historical debate we could have on another show. >> well, you talked about two people there that i want you to expound on -- the john quincy adams approach to -- he was a president, had been a president, the 6th president of the united states, and then went on 17 years in the house of representatives. but what did he do when james polk was inaugurated president? >> well, he had a chance to be in the inaugural procession, which he had no intention of doing because he was very upset about polk's election. he despised andrew jackson, but jackson was a giant of his t

." >> and we are back with our reporters, rebecca adams and dan vergana. rebecca, what did you learn? >> people are interested in this research and to see how far it would go. and i am sure that dan has thoughts about that as well. and the interesting news about the reg that will be coming out on conflicts of interest is also interesting. >> was that a big change? >> people had suspected that he had said things in the past of trying to tighten the interest rules, but he's not been this specific and not given a timetable for that. >> dan. >> the next batch of cells that are disease specific where they have genes for individual diseases some rare ones and some popular diseases. and the other thing that he lost 25 pounds, i thought that was news. i have to hand it to an n.i.h. director, they usually pack on the pounds. he had good answers for the job and in the genome race he should be an interesting director. >> of the $30 billion and the money qpvthat he controls what does n.i.h. follow with this? >> n.i.h. has the control of treatments, and one thing i did

i think if we don't have that advantage -- you know, that points to a tough year. >> and adam bolten, you're familiar with america but again coming with this somewhat outsider perspective and you come back having spent an intensive time here from the beginning of the obama administration. what do you see the dynamics going into next year. >> i'm not so sure that the rest of the world, the mid term elections will matter too much whatever the results are. and because -- because, i think the rest of the world already perceives that the president is having a great deal of trouble with the congress trying to get through, what he wants to get through. and also because i suspect that -- you know just as president obama gets the -- the nobel prize probably the assumption of the rest of the world could be the wrong one is that -- he looks like a two-term president and indeed the mood of electorates across the world in stable democracies tends to be to go for two terms and make a decision and then turn away. and i think that -- there is still as far as obama is concerned certainly in europe, an

adam boulton is a familiar face on british television but knows his way around washington as well. he was here for the first 100 days of the obama administration, but he is also one of the most experienced and respected commentators on not only british politics but politics around the world. last but not least, david gregory who is the host of "meet the press." a chance to thank you for allowing us to be present at your program yesterday. thank you very much. congressman, i imagine that we are sitting here one year from now and you are looking back on 2010. apart from the her wrote republican victory in the midterms, what would be the highlights of the political year? >> if we are looking back one year from now the story has to pay the progress -- the story has to be the progress made on the jobs front. this has been a year in 2009 about whether washington will focus on getting americans back to work. if i look at where we have been in the last 11 months, i remember the instance when i was meeting with the president in january. it was said by both parties that we would do everythin

. >> nancy, the people you hear talking on this tape are jarius adams and his sister, kimberly. they were both asleep. kimberly heard a sound, like a continuous knocking, very faint. she thought somebody forget their keys, she went downstairs. that's when she saw headlights shining into the house. she woke up her brother. he sees tiger woods laying in the street. elin asked him for help. the thing that's not clear, drew, correct me if i'm wrong, we still don't know exactly if the neighbors heard anything or not. are there various reports of whether people heard an argument before it happened? >> these neighbors didn't. there are reports other neighbors did. i looked at an aerial shot and it seems like it would be hard for other neighbors to hear anything. these are huge houses. the only neighbor next to or remotely close to tiger woods house is far off in the corner of the street. it would strike me as strange if other neighbors were able to hear it. it would be difficult for another neighbor to hear a fight, even if there was one. >> kim, what does elin say? did she hear the cr

guest: in addition to the president's you mentioned, john adams, our second president, went to his homen quincy, mass. for eight months in 1799. that is lost and the president had been away. our presidents get criticized for goofing off for being away from washington for too long. president bush, the sun, the 43rd president, had that criticism money went to his ranch in texas john adams set the record. that is a long time ago he felt that when congress was not in session there was no reason for him to be in washington. during that time, he almost lost control of his foreign policy because there were people in his cabinet who disagree with his position and they were trying to push for war with france. he had to come back and pull that back. presidents have felt a strong need to get away from an abnormal expert at the white house but to find some normalcy in their own lives however they define it. for washington and jefferson, they considered their plig plantations because they considered themselves as farmers, washington consider agriculture a gift from the divine-)ñ as the top of the la

adam, you see politics around the world, what do you see?here are other trends and taxes have gone up in britain and the united states. deficit again is for who ever wins the general election. and britain is going to be a massive problem and a lot of european countries are not that far behind. but my feeling is that there is a certain kind of realization of the limits of what government can do. certainly in those countries where the government has assumed a bigger role. i was at a public meeting with a member of cameron's team, and they came out and said that was fantastic, because no one asked me for money. what we are not hearing and probably not in the general afterwards will be not just taxes, which i think have pretty much reached their limit. but real cuts in spending. and we will see that across the spectrum. >> i spoke to a prominent person in american finance yesterdsb+who said that the real question around the world is, what is the hell is going on in america? in asia that's the case and china has had the sense of growing america's

adam president, let me bring my remarks to a close. by giving you an example of where i think we should be going of the country in terms of health care. and oddly enough, the process that i think we should be using is what a small country of 23 million people, the country of taiwan did in 1995. 1995, taiwan was where we were now. massive dissatisfaction with the functional health care system. and they did what we didn't do. if that was put together the best commission began, the smartest people we know, let's go all over the world. let's take the best ideas from country all over the world here at its not the michael chan vice president cfo of taiwan's national insurance health insurance bureau explained that an interview earlier this year the taiwanese ultimately chose to model their system, after their worldwide search, after our medicare program. that's the way they went except that they chose to ensure the entire population rather than just the elderly. after searching the globe, the taiwanese realized what many americans already kn

adams secretary, good morning. good to see you. last wednesday you testified before the commerce transportation committee post-9/11 and one question had to do with whether you were consulted by the attorney general before a decision was made to try khalid sheikh muhammad and other co-conspirators in new york, rick least attempt to try them there since you know and i know a judge will ultimately decide where that trial will take place, but were you consulted? >> i did not no, i did not talk with the attorney general. that is the prosecution decision as to where and what to bring the case and i believe that is held by the ag. >> and, on i agree that the attorney general is the one who makes that decision at least primarily and of course the president of the united states is going to have to make a decision whether a military authority willen fact turn the detainees over to civilian authorities. ipers them that authority will be granted since i can imagine the attorney general would have announced his decision without a least some ind

he complained to john adams, quote, my health is entirely broken down within the last eight months. number six, jefferson owned three different slaves named sally, adding to the historical confusion. yet he never freed his supposedly over of 38 years, sally hemmings, from her enslavement, or ever mentioned her in his will. seven, the paternity believers rely heavily on the sketchy circumstantial evidence of the birth records of all of sally's children, proof that jefferson was present at monticello during all of sally's conceived pregnancies. this is absolutely false, since it assumes that sally was also present at all the times that jefferson was present in monticello. sallies simultaneous physical presence in monticello with jefferson is completely unknown by any recorded evidence. this false and misleading assumption skews the entire time in debate. in fact, there are a specific letter in 1802 from jefferson to his daughter, which reasonably implies sally, as was her sister, may have been elsewhere besides monticello. number eight, the confusing testimony of madison hemmings, who

[applause] like samuel adams, he was an american patriot. like henry clay, he was a superb orator.president. like will rogers, because the giver and oklahoma's favorite son had a lot in common. they both starred in the movies. they both loved horses. they were both great at telling a joke. when ronald reagan walked into the oval office in january 1981, our nation has faced a number of crises. vietnam, watergate, oil shocks, and economic troubles. inflation and unemployment were high. public confidence was low. experts said america's best days were behind her, and that we ought to lower our expectations. but ronald reagan and his boundless optimism would have none of that. we are not, as some would have us believe, and doomed to inan inevitable decline, he said at his first inaugural ball. "we have every right to dream come into dream heroic dreams." and so, ladies and gentlemen, we did. president reagan demonstrated the power of big ideas. he was guided by a deeply held core values, principles about taxes and about spending, and about national defense. and most of all, perhaps, abo

michael adams, ph.d., and carroll g. robinson, esquire, and barbara jordan from the mickey leland school of public affairs, texas southern university. "our reading of the constitution and supreme court precedent could not identify any reasonable basis, expressed or implied, for granting congress the broad, sweeping and unprecedented power that is represented by the individual mandate requirement. in fact, we could not find any court decision, state or federal, that said or implied that the constitution gave congress the power to mandate citizens to buy a particular good or service or be subject to a financial penalty levied by the government for not doing so." that's -- that's pretty impressive stuff. it is certainly possible to achieve the goal of greater health insurance coverage by constitutional means, not unconstitutional means. i am quite certain, however, that those means are politically impossible. liberty requires that the constitution trump politics, but in the legislation before us, politics trumps the constit
