. >> next, a look at the bible's contributions on the american constitutional republic, and an american university professor talks about the bible's influence on the u.s. judicial system, including due process and separation of powers. his remarks were part of a symposium hosted by the museum of the bible in washington, d.c. >>> hello, everyone. our second session today is the bible and the founding of the american constitutional republic with daniel dreisbach. it shaped the founders political thought and rhetoric. this presentation will examine the founding generation's appeal to scripture to answer political questions and to inform an emerging constitutional tradition. daniel dreisbach is a professor in the school of public affairs at american university here in washington, d.c. many he earned the highest faculty award, scholar teacher of the year. his research interests include constitutional law and the intersection of politics, law and religion in american public life. his most recent book is reading the bible with the founding fathers. i have that one myself and it's full of stick

american capitalism. to a scholarly outsider, it makes sense to a degree if this safeguarding is about the american homefront. it makes less sense to me how abroad.on is applied there is rhetoric about the free presidents like to sing democracies praises and would like to see it abroad. one does not have to subscribe to a twitter feed or walter mcdougall's critique of religion offeel the skepticism democratic capitalism as an actual key goal or a result of american foreign-policy. 9/11,eorge w. bush post the overall goal of american policy in september of his configure ato balance of power favoring freedom. onthe book's opening essay american foreign-policy we are mustded that the u.s. defend civil liberties. these principles are right and true for all people. told bob would work, i think we have a duty to free people. we have a duty. this rhetoric is significant all the more so because it infuses the thinking man around the pentagon. it should be taken seriously. no question that the rhetoric was heavy,

given the central role that the united states plays in backing israel seems to me americans all americans have a right to question the to kill or israeli policies and in particular the prolonged occupation the fact that the palestinian people have been kept without a state and without any political rights for decades now in the end this comes down to a battle for the minds of american people a battle over the stories they told to make sense of this conflict about global perception the more americans are able to see the reality of occupation with their own eyes to see images of routine daily violence of the repression and the never make their way into mainstream news the more they'll question the image of israel as this tiny little david up against the bullying our. and start to wonder if it's actually the outcome palestinians who might be the real davids here. and that's thoughts becoming the dominant perception here in the u.s. opec's or off it all comes down to american public perception. hello it hasn't rained for two days now in kentucky but unfriend the ohio river is doing flood so a

to american life and culture as a whole. this danger alone should inspire americans to stud dit bible in its role in the life of the nation. the 19th century historian john wing gate authority ton described it as the great textbook of the patriots. not an uncommon sentiment that we find in the histories of the 19th century. but here's an interesting statement. comes from a more modern source. some years ago in a cover story on the bible in america, news week magazine reported, and i quote, the bible has exerted an unrivalled influence on american culture, politics, and social life. now historians are discovering that the bible perhaps even more than the constitution is our founding document, end quote. now that's a stunning statement. and we could have a very energetic debate about whether this provocative statement can be defended or not. but clearly there's an acknowledgement of the profound role that the bible played in the larger culture, the political culture, the legal culture of the american founding era. from the pur

these newcomers to america make america more american. hurdo, we should bring the after aguilar bill to the floor. it was burn. it had bipartisan support on the floor. it would pass. have the courage to bring a bill that protects the dreamers. to the floor of the house. these priorities that i mentioned are all bipartisan. they would pass if brought to the floor for an up or down vote. the g.o.p. squandered all their time, energy, and votes and enthusiasm on tax breaks for corporations and the wealthiest, with 86.3% of the tax bill going to the top 1%. and now plurns need to get serious and get to work on a budget that funds both the military and domestic investments that keep our nation strong. i want to make one point about the tax bill, again. did you see that the speaker of the house sang the glory of the tax bill because a woman was getting $1.50 a day more in her paycheck? id you see that? do you believe that's a good thing when the top 1% are probably getting $1,500 a week, compared to her $1.50 a week in her paycheck. thank god af

a very proud history of american -- african-americans serving our nation began back at the founding. they joined units like first rhode island regiment. the first all-black unit of american warriors. many were slaves and in exchange for their service they were promised freedom. these soldiers bravely repelled repeated assaults by enemy forces and the battle of road island. -- rhode island. later they fought at yorktown were the british ultimately surrendered and america's independence was one. they would not have surrendered so easily and quickly without you, i tell you. the decades later, african-americans fought to preserve our union in the civil war. among them was a soldier who was born a slave in virginia and later and listed in the union army. during the second battle of fort wagner, sergeant carney saw the color guard of his unit fall and he was mortally wounded. immediately, he threw down his rifle, raced to grab the flag and carry it forward. plan to get on the walls of the 4 -- printing it on the walls of the fort. , he multiple wounds continue to guard the flag throughout

we will protect the birthright of freedom for all americans. i want to tell you, we've made such incredible progress over the last year. it was just announced and perhaps you heard me say it, we had the lowest african-american unemployment rate in the history of our country.

you are watching american history tv on c-span3. steve: you are watching american history tv on c-span3. joining us is david lubin. he is the author of "grand illusions: american art & the first world war." published by oxford university press. researching this book, what surprised you the most? mr. lubin: what surprised me was how much impact the first world war had on american artists. the received wisdom has always been artists -- the war had very little impact. it had a huge impact on cubism. everything thought it bypassed the united states is doing to search, i found how extensively the range of artists, not only high artists but popular artists, commercial artists, we digesting the war. and actually after the troops came home. steve: you teach this attitude wake forest university. what drew you to this topic? mr. lubin: i knew the anniversary of american involvement in the war was coming up. i thought, we were living in a time -- this was the early 2000's. the war we were facing, in the middle east, a huge influence on the way

on the american founding. but i think we would be hard pressed to find more than a handful of books that focus on the bible's influence on the american founding. again, i think that reflects sort of the landscape of modern scholarship. the founding generation in the last third or so of the 18th century drew on and synthesized diverse, intellectual traditions informing their political thought. among these diverse traditions were british constitutionalism and i've depicted here magna carta, the great english jurist, sir william blackstone. they also drew on enlightenment ideas in a variety of forms and expressions. and just as referenced in the examples here, i have locke and montesquieu. they also drew on republican traditions both ancient and modern, and i have representing this and, again, there are many other figures that we could illustrate this with, but i have here cicero and machiavelli both from the ancients as well as for more modern thinkers. now, the thesis that i advance in my book is this. both the

american dream. this means now this is my american dream. so reflecting on her father's sacrifice, chloe said, my dad has definitely sacrificed a lot for me. and i don't know if i could do it if i was in his shoes. leaving your life behind and closing -- and chasing your dream because your kid is passionate about this sport, i think today i did it for my family and i am so grateful to them. chloe's story of winning olympic gold is extraordinary, but her father's story speaks to a deep and abiding foundation of america and to my personal experience as an immigrant. my mom also came to this country poor and without skills to escape an abusive marriage to give her three children, of which i am one, a chance at a better life. and like jong and chloe, one generation after my mom came to this country, i am standing on the floor of the united states senate fighting for humane immigration policies. these stories speak to the broader immigrant experience in our country. we work hard and embrace the opportunities this country provides. and we often se

we are all proud americans. the thing is if you start to talk about the dreamers in that way. >> laura: what do you mean? what way? because it's our country. that's what he is talking about. it's our country. >> he is separating us out and saying. >> laura: right. >> they have dreams, we have dreams. instead of dealing with real immigration reform and a real policy. >> laura: yeah. we will get to that. >> okay. because that's what he didn't do. >> laura: juan, actually what he has done is more than doubled his initial offer of 800,000 illegal immigrants. >> cut legal immigration. >> called compromise he is not getting everything he wants and democrats isn't getting everything he wants. >> building the wall 25 billion. >> laura: democrats have offered no serious compromise on this at all. john, the democrats have left the idea of governing and governance and they are in full resistance mode. really telling when clyburn said when he like reacted so negatively to the american dreams line. i can tell you my listener

but they're continuously baffled by how americans do their foreign policy and denied american ability to do foreign policy whatsoever. >> i found it very interesting and thought provoking the comparison vlad made between when he said was the illusion or dill lu dilusion about the world order and then you compare the two putin's illusion or delusion in the beginning of the administration. i never thought about it this way but can i, this is really interesting because maybe putin also sincerely believed that a truly cooperative order was possible. world order. now can i push you just a little more to the moment that starts to disapate and why and try to make the same comparison? this is not a question about personalities. this is about their vision of how world order might work and why it does not work this way. >> well, we all know this history. after 9/11 putin calls bush and offers all kinds of things and he definitely acts at the time when there's already, how strong, i don't know but when there's already an anti-american consensus in moscow and even among diplomats and putin overru

americans do not believe undocumented immigrants take jobs away from americans. 63% to 33% reject it. it's because our eyes can see. come to central illinois near my hometown of springfield. go to the local meat processing plant or chicken processing plant and watch who comes out of that plant at quitting time. hispanics and africans, taking what are pretty tough, dirty, rough jobs because others don't want them. and take a look next time you go into a nice restaurant in chicago, a city i'm honored to represent. look who justified cleaned the dishes off the table. and when the door swings take a look at who's in the kitchen doing the dishes. by and large it's going to be immigrants who are doing those things. not many of us say to our sons and daughters, i'm hoping they will come -- when you decide to go and pick fruit for a living. hardly ever hear that because we know it's hard, backbreaking work and immigrants do the work. so many jobs that they fill are jobs that americans aren't jumping to fill. how about issue of crime? the majority of americans do not believe that undocumented

anne spencer was an american poet associated with the harlem renaissance. how she became involved with the harlem renaissance is how harlem comes to lynchburg. there is a group of people who are associated with that period of time that people do not know about. on sunday at 2:00 eastern on american history tv, an interview with liberty university president jerry falwell jr. about the origins of the university, its impact on lynchburg, and the role evangelicals play in politics. >> in spite of trump's background, they are pleasantly surprised with how he has come around on issues important to the evangelicals and how he has been the best president for and i think he's going to end up being one of the greatest presidents we have ever had. with the conversation brand son of -- the grandson of a man who hosted a tennis camp in lynchburg for young black athletes. my grandfather and his ability, he managed to be a student of the tennis game and transform that learning into a that would for decades provide players an opportunity for african-americans to integrate

american history. eight years of a stagnant economy and wages that wouldn't budge, american workers are seeing their paychecks rise faster today than at any point in nearly a decade. and more than 1.5 million americans have left the rolls of food stamps and now able to support and sustain themselves with dignity and self-worth. but i know in my heart that the best is yet to come. because as we speak, our economy is already started to feel the effects of that historic tax cut. about 90% of working americans are going to get a tax cut. millions are already seeing more money in their paychecks and feeling it in their wallets. and we didn't just cut taxes on your income. the obamacare individual mandate tax is gone. [ applause ] since the president's tax cuts became the law of the land, businesses large and small have announced more than $480 billion in new investments in american jobs and american workers and just the past two months more than 4.3 million americans have already gotten a raise or a bonus a

that puerto ricans are american. the media's racialization of poverty and welfare and crime works within the constraints of the psychology and the sense or historic lack of an inclusive collective identity. political rhetoric, verbal and visual, are vehicles that media, candidates and officials use in the social construction or framing of societal problems and keep with their own world views, but again i don't think that is created in a vacuum. thinking about it, what does the phrase all american conjure up. how has it been visualized? how has a president or first lady been consuptualized. this is not just in mass media, but in how individuals hear and speak about their leaders and themselves through social media and at rallies we saw in quick effects. most importantly when we asked how americans speak to each other in their own homes. the conflict between american ideals and the reality of race has been a problem for social coregion. the election of drum with racial conflict and resentment in explicit terms than we

the american embassy was hastily evacuated. there is the conic figure of helicopters landing on the roof. for american personnel in these bases you have to make a snap decision what to take. you are also in a helicopter. but this family chart was one of the things that an american diplomat grabbed. it was salvaged and the political officer who created it had no idea. >> his colleague, weeks after the evacuation, surprise to milwaukee to his office and handed this over, much to his surprise that it survived. >> i think it was a smart thing to do because there was -- such a fear of reprisals. hence the terror of the evacuation. this would have given a roadmap to any kind of political connection. sure there was a lot of thought into saving this document. >> we are happy to have this now. the crises continued in the 1970's. there is a lot going on in iran in the late 1970's, a lot of protests. >> in 1979, the islamic state was created after much political violence and unrest. it all came to a head when the shah of iran sought asylu

americans. it is not just a feeling, it is knowledge. crime,, welfare, and works within the constraints of america's existing psychology, and historic lack of collective identity. , verbal andetoric visual, or vehicles that media candidates and public officials use in these social constructions of framing societal problems in keeping with their own worldviews. but i don't think that is created in a vacuum. thinking about our ideas, what does the phrase all-american conjure up? how has it historically been visualized? how have american presidents or the first lady been contextualized? if you think about it, you see a narrowness not just in mass media but also in how individuals think about and speak about their leaders and themselves through social media, at rallies that we saw in 2016, public events, and most importantly and we study how americans speak to each other in their own homes. finally, the conflicts between american ideals and the realities of race have posed as a problem for national

jobs, american workers, and in just the past two months, more than 4.3 million americans have alreadyotten a raise or a bonus and we're just getting started.

[booing] vice president pence: most amazingly of all, she keeps saying that a $1000 bonus for working americans is nothing more than crumbs. [booing] vice president pence: let me remind all of you, i come from the joseph a. bank wing of the west wing, of the white house. seriously, folks, when our kids were little, we had a term for another $1000 in our paycheck at the end of the year. christmas.

maybe we should listen to the american people. democrats and republicans and independents. that would be morally atrocious to allow these young people to be deported. i think but then to support anything in a nation is divided as we are today. you cannot get 80% of people to agree on their favorite i.c.e.e. cream. but 80% of the american people do not turn your backs on these young people who have lived in this country for virtually their entire life. so madame president we have to act and act the senate with legislation that would allow us to do that. and in the house the good news is there is bipartisan legislation sponsored by congressman to provide protection to the dreamers and the path for citizenship. and my understanding is that bipartisan legislation now has majority support. and i urge in the strongest terms possible that speaker by and allow democracy to prevail in the house. allow the vote toif take place. if you have a majority in a bipartisan way that support legislation, allow that legislation to come to the floo floor. . . . . this is a difficult issue issue

in american military history.his is part of the flag that was carried by that regiment during the battle of rhode island on august 28 and 29th, 1778. and we know that because this wasicular note, which written in 1878, almost exactly 100 years after the battle, piece of the flag carried by the kernel's regiment -- colonel's regiment at the battle of rhode island august when he 9, 1778. it is modest, -- august 29, 1778. it is modest, humble, but it tells a story of people fighting for their freedom. perhaps we have one of the pieces of evidence about the worst side of the conflict, which is the violence that occurred. this is a cannonball, solid shot, that was found on the field, not very far from here. this is solid iron. which can cause an extraordinary amount of damage. while it's attributed to the battle of rhode island, we are not positive that it actually was part of the battle. it is really large. it comes from the kind of canon -- cannon that the americans do not have at the time, even though the americans

it had an american exceptionalism argument. america is different than the rest of the world in black -- and lack of radicalism was part of that difference. this was designed to refute. going to do today is not try to cover all of the types of extremism in your readings this week. i am going to just pick just one of those types, and that is anarchism. i am taking anarchism for a variety of reasons. one is as a historian, i am appalled by the use of the word anarchist in the press whenever there is a riot, and in my old home town of berkeley, the term was used widely. ,he protesters were anarchists and what they were doing was equating anarchism first with just vandalism, no ideology in particular, which is wrong, and withequating anarchists destructiveness. and indeed the folks they were covering, the news coverage, were doing destructive things. they were trashing stores and things like that. anarchists of the type i am talking about did do violent acts, at least some schools of anarchy, but those acts of violence were not the

in order to scare the americans so he can contain american power. one of the lessons of studying khrushchev that is relevant to today or a couple of them and then i'll finish with that is that americans tend not to understand that their country is a threat to other people. americans believe -- i hate what am i doing generalizing. more often than not, american policymakers will believe that specific american actions will define how other countries view this country. when it's the fact of american power. the hugeness of the economy. the size of the american military which is a daily threat to many countries. which either will bandwagon with you or are going to try to oppose you. it's -- our very existence that poses a threat. khrushchev never lost track of the fact that the united states was more powerful and richer. he believed in the future if the competition were kept to ideology and economic interaction that the soviets would ultimately bury us. like we die and they continue to live, they will be at our funeral. if you believe that we are a threat

americans get scared. and that's exactly what the soviets hoped for except that americans then spend money on nuclear weapons when they get scared and the soviets couldn't compete. so in 1961, khrushchev believes that since -- because he's very well aware of the missile gap, crisis, he believes that this will have a restraining effect on the use of american power. and perhaps will lead to an agreement in central europe. kennedy, because he believes that he's always dealing with a rational actor, wants to change the incentive structure for khrushchev and what he does is he says once the satellites provide american -- the u.s. government with absolute certainty that the soviets are way behind in the missile competition, he decides to share that with the soviets. not directly by giving him a corona document but by having a public statement, by kilpatrick, the undersecretary of defense. the u.s. government does that thinking that if the soviets know they are behind, they will stop this risk taking. they will j
