i remember once i was at a conference in austin on a panel of biographers and this biographer said richard shouldn't even be here because he is a ghost writer and that's not a biographer. one of the reasons i can't trust his book is because he has no editorial control over the content and i have to agree with him. i didn't agree with him that i shouldn't be on the panel and i have to point out to him that the holy bible is a ghost written book and we don't know who the author of that is and there are other excellent post for ten bucks, the autobiography of malcolm x. is looked at as a classic, but going back to the point of control one of the points i made is that when you give control of a cube gets gets more control because it isn't on the table as a point of contention. so knowing that he or she has the ultimate editorial content can relax and you are able to gain more intimacy that way and usually at the end of the process i have gained enough of the trust of the star that i can pretty much control the content of the book. there are other times they don't want this or that but generall

i remember once, peter, i was at a conference in austin on a panel of loggers and his biographer at the incident richard shouldn't be because -- david ritz should be because he's a ghostwriter and that's not a biographer. one of the reasons i can't trust his book is because he is no editorial control over the content. and i had to agree with them. i didn't agree with him that i shouldn't be on the panel and had to point out to him who the holy bible is a ghost written book, we don't know who the off of it is other than the holy ghost and/or other excellent ghost written books, the autobiography of malcolm x by alex hays is looked at as a classic but going back to point of control, one of the points i made with that when you give control away, when it is an issue, you get more control because control is on the table as a point of contention. it is in any so that the star, knowing that he or she has the ultimate editorial content and control over content can relax ng were able to gain more intimacy that way. and usual at the end of the process i have gained enough of the trust of the star

so we biographers believe in the role of an individual to bend the forces of history a little bit.have to understand because this is why i wrote "the innovators," that sometimes we biographers distort history. picnic it seem like it is just one person sitting in the garage and having a lightbulb moment and innovation happens, when in fact it is great innovators and thinkers, great individuals who know how to collaborate in forms teams. so that is what i tried to do in my latest book. but what sets me apart maybe from other academic historians is maybe if you just tell the story but here is the beginning and here is the person. here is how he grew up in you listen to that person, read everything that person did and you can say that you can tell the history of our time to people and to me that is the best way to appreciate the creativity that goes into making history. >> host: as a professor i tend to think of history is run by impersonal forces. but when you see it in practice, you see the different personalities make. henry kissinger 1974 after his first middle east saddle. >> gues

he was spared gaol time after sharing informs with his biographer and one-time lover. fadel fahmy, one of three journalist in prison is suing his employer. lawyers filed a lawsuit in vancouver on may 5th, and is seeking $100 million. he said the network: he was the cairo's she have along with peter greste and mohammed badr. they were convicted of spreading false news. peter greste has been deported. mohamed fadel fahmy and mohammed badr are awaiting retrial. the network said: >>> in bangladesh another blogger has been murdered, the third killing in three months. on may 11th he was hacked to death by a gang in the east. authorities are yet to confirm the motive. but the 33-year-old was threatened over a pro-secular blog post. religious groups pushed for tougher anti-blasphemy laws to keep religions out of politics. his bloggings was based on anated yist blog are who was killed. and another was killed for anti-islamic writing. >>> from the u.s. based committee to protect journalists it was said: >>> macedonia is a small country of 2 million people. the government has a b

to slavery, raising questions about messages, which you pointed out, but the core of this, his biographicalessage, is superpowerful. mark: our second clip, carson laying out his stance on social safety nets. mr. carson: there are many people who are critical of me because they say carson wants to get rid of all of the safety nets and welfare programs, even though he must have benefited from them. this is a blatant lie. i have no desire to get rid of safety nets for people who need them. i have a strong desire to get rid of programs that create dependency in able-bodied people. we are not doing people a favor when we pat them on the head and say there, there, you poor little thing, we are to take care of all of your needs. you will not have to worry about anything. you know who else says stuff like that? socialists. and their programs always end up looking the same. they want to take care of people from cradle to grave but they want to be involved in every aspect of your lives. and they want most of their earnings. but they say it will be a utopia, and nobody will have to worry. the problem

well, his first biographer who was someone very close to him said that from the very beginning he neverhad any acts that tatian of ever being elected president, nor did he desire -- nor did he ever expect the socialist party itself as the party by itself to come to power. the goal was only to organize for an eventual larger party to do so. in fact the reason the last time he ran in 1948 was because there was reason to believe there was a possibility of the democratic party breaking up in that kind of realignment taking place because of course everyone thought he would beat truman and that was the reason in 1848 was the last election in which he ran. as goes beyond -- i don't -- as goes beyond bad and specifically the point about pacifism and mutual disarmament versus absolute pacifism, i guess i would only say and one can take this comment however they like. i don't think he was any more or less impractical than other -- another socialist including those who came before him before world war i. .. when the russian revolution took place, the socialist party was immediately for it. and whe

mark: very personal, very biographical.uch will that help them in iowa, south carolina, mississippi? john: this is a candidate where the reason his populism is potentially as ways of is because it is routedoted to who he is. mark: what about the fact that he is a millionaire? john: it is tricky for him, but he earned it the hard way. he struggled for a long time. he has a real rags to riches story. the actual policy positions, or at least the adrdrdent support of gun rights, will play very well. mark: he is going up against a much bigger field. it is a great story but he has connected it's a policy and i think that is the biggest weakness. all right, now the fight against iran. mike huckabee: we put more pressure on our ally israel to seize building bedrooms for their families than we do on iran from building a bomb. when i hear our current resident asking christians to get off their high horse to make nice with radical jihadists, i wonder -- i wonder if he could watch a western from the 1950's and be able to figure out who
