and those who opposed his son's election because he was a roman catholic said that, billy graham among them, norman vincent peel right out there in front, said that you couldn't be a catholic and a true-blooded american at the same time. because the vatican was going to give you orders, and you couldn't turn them down. over here. >> is it true that kennedy's views about the future of the stock market was influenced by his -- [inaudible] one day who was giving him advice on the market and supposedly kennedy has said on his way to his office he thought something is wrong when a boot black can give me advice? >> yeah, it's a great story. i found no evidence for it. [laughter] it's -- no, it may be true. there are some stories i found no evidence for and i discount. i didn't include it in my book because i couldn't verify it. but kennedy didn't need his boot black to tell him that. kennedy was very smart, and when you look back at the crash of 1929 as when you look back at the crash of 2008, you find that there are a lot of people who knew it was coming and that nobody was listening to. be

we'll talk to a team of reverend billy graham's chaplain sent to help deal with the tragedy and find some hope. this holiday, share everything. share "not even close." share "you owe me..." share "just right." the share everything plan. shareable data across 10 devices with unlimited talk and text. hurry in for a droid razr m by motorola for $49.99. ♪ ♪ [ male announcer ] everyone deserves the gift of all day pain relief. this season, discover aleve. all day pain relief with just two pills. >> the muslim brother hoo is claiming victory on an islamic-backed constitutional draft. early reports suggest that the turnout was low and there may have been problems. we go live to cairo for the latest. >> reporter: shannon, it looks like the folks in favor of that controversial constitution will get their way. the voting this weekend was the first of two rounds, but according to preliminary result, the yes vote got 57%. the no vote, 43%. turnout was off by egyptian standards as the opposition is claiming widespread irregularities and the government is dismaises -- missing the -- dismissing the

and that's what so silly about this claim of mel gibson and frankly of some others including billy grahamwho's claimed when he saw the film he felt like he was a bystander, like it was a real tv documentary or something. this is clearly a film that comes out of the visions of a lot of people, mel gibson one of them, and this emmer rick person another. >> this goes actually a little bit further, this piece written by o'malley, john w. o'malley, a jesuit. he said the emmer rick-brentano papers are perhaps best treated as devout fiction or well intentioned frauds. that's how her original writings evolved and were added to. so that has to be said in connection with this. >> that's right, he's drawing from all sorts of resources, he's drawing from med evil passion plays, i think he's drawing from the tradition of the horror movie, i think he's drawing from the action adventure movies, there's all sorts of sources that we see here. >> let me give you a real question here on what image may be emerging. some viewers have said that the brutalization of death and jesus leave, for revenge, could we

there were millions of people and there were some very important protestant leaders including billy grahamwho said do not vote for a catholic because the catholic is less, a catholic is in the agencies and i think the kennedy presidency change that. >> okay, the day of reckoning -- >> joseph kennedy's attitude and his own and anti-semitism do you think that has any impact on his attitude? >> no, i think one can be -- how do i put this? kennedy did not approve hitler's action towards the jews, she was appalled, kennedy came up with his own plan to rescue the jews, but kennedy and his speeches, in his letters, and his comments and his conversations it became abundantly clear to me every myth about the jewish conspiracies, about being a loyal to one another, about jews running the new deal that was called the jew deal by many. kennedy was anti-semitic in many ways, but he was not a nazi idle and not a sympathizer of hitler. he was not charles lindbergh. >> you talk about joseph kennedy because of his character i guess. also the case that she didn't visit who became president when he got sick

interests, they were not patriotic, and in a funny way he accused the jews of everything that billy graham's and protestants accused his son of when he ran for the presidency in 1960. he didn't believe it was possible to be a jew and to be a true patriot at the same time and those who opposed his son's election because he was roman catholic he said you couldn't be a catholic and a true blooded american at the same time because they couldn't turn him down. is it true kennedy's views about the future of the stock market was influenced by his bootblack one day was giving him advice on the marquette and supposedly kennedy had said on his way to his office he thought something is wrong when they give me advice? >> it's a great story. i found no evidence. it may be true. there are some stories they found no evidence for. i didn't include it in my book because i couldn't verify it. but kennedy didn't need it to tell him that. kennedy was really smart. and when you look back at the crash of 1929, as when you look back at the crash of 2008, you find that there are a lot of people who knew it was comi

and a funny way, he accused the jewish of every day but billy graham and protestants accused his sona but he ran for presidency in the 1960s. he didn't believe those possible to be a jew and a true peace treaty at the same time as those who oppose to send selection, because he was roman catholic said that the late graham among them were right out there in front, said that you couldn't be a catholic in true blooded american at the same time the vatican would give the lawyers that could turn them down. >> is it true that kennedy's views about the future of the stock market was influenced who's giving advice on the market is supposed to kennedy said on its way to his office he thought something was wrong to give me advice. >> it's a great story. i saw no evidence for it. it may be true. there's some stories i found a evidence for. i didn't include it in my book because i couldn't verify. but kennedy was really smart. when you look back at the crash of 1929, as do the back of the crash of 2008, you find that there aren't but it people who knew that was coming and that nobody was listenin
