buckley jr. published an essay against passing federal laws to enforce the 14th and 15th amendments in the south. entitled why the south must prevail. it's pretty well known by now, u think some of the the key assertions are worth repeating in context. we've heard related assertions already this morning. but i'm going to give up a fairly long quote here for some context from that particular essay of buckley's. the naacp and others insist -- others disagree. contending most negroes approval the separation of the races. what if the naacp is correct? the negroes would according to democratic processes win the the election, but that's the kind of situation the white community will not permit. the man who didn't count it will be hauled out before a jury. he will plead not guilty and the jury upon deliberation will find him not guilty. a federal judge in a similar situation might find the defendant guilty. a judgment which would affirm the law and conform with the relevant abstractions but whose conseq

buckley. this was part of a symposium at linfield college to mark the anniversary between william buckley and author james baldwin. this panel is about 90 minutes. >>> patrick is someone who i got to know through the great courses on tape. many of you, any teaching company fans in the house, as a commuter, the teaching company has been a great companion of mine. because of many many drives through the backroads of oregon on my way to work. patrick would accompany with his thoughts on the history of conservatism, american identity, and even among the courses patrick teaches, he teaches about teaching. he has a course for the teaching company for the art of teaching. so patrick is a very accomplished scholar. you can find many of his books listed there. most relevant for our purposes patrick is the author of the conservatives, history of conservatism, and that's available on display at the book table. and most recently, patrick published a book called the climate of crisis a history of environme

buckley was married once.when you talk about larger-than-life but named truman capote springs immediately to mind another one of our great novelists interesting bullying character. he had a ball the black-and-white all and i have never understood how it is that truman capote we have a ball. it was referred to as truman capote's lack of my all in which anybody who is anybody went to. can you tell us why that's important and not just something that makes us all long for gowns and elbow gloves. >> the story of the ball again as i wrote this book it was sort of come i wanted to engage with the 60s and there they are at german capote's ball. buckley and mailer almost given if a spy. there they are debating germane greer. the story told itself radio is so much fun to write so one of the great pleasures as i could tell the story of truman capote's black-and-white ball. in 1966 he had just finished in cold blood and was this huge success. he didn't have the book to write so he had all this money and all this time in n

this is a clip of bill buckley and gore vidal when vidal was wanting to expose buckley for something. >> buckley expected this to be an opportunity to debate the issues. to have some fun, he was not prepared mr. vidal. >> weren't told me he hired a researcher. he wanted to paint the national review as being racist if he could. anti-semitic. >> i don't think he was really interested in conducting a debate about the issues, or about the parties, or about the policies. or about the plant forms. -- platforms. what he wanted to do was expose bill buckley. >> their confrontation is about lifestyle. what kind of people should we be? their real argument in front of the public is, who is the better person? brian: did you find out whether or not when they were getting their makeup in those black-and-white shots? did they talk? morgan: i think they try to not speak to one another as much as possible. and, i mean one of the many , things we came across when we were doing this film was, we went through gore's papers at harvard. where they are, and found all of his files that he prepared for these

he was the revelation to me, i was familiar with gore, but i was familiar with buckley the man, and buckley the tv personality. buckley's apartment in new york with his wife patricia was full of liberal writers and some of her gay friends and people in the art world. not what i would've thought of. robert: one of the things we learned was that he had this -- was very interested in clinical debates on television -- political debates on television. but all camera he was interested in the arts and play the harpsichord and painted. he found its -- he perceived that in his all-time. brian: we have a bit of video from the trailer which talks about your documentary area and -- documentary. >> he represented everything that was going to moral hell. >> these were two visions of america. >> each thought the other was quite dangerous. >> all of the security makes me nervous. >> his ideas would take down the nation. >> it's almost as if they were matter and antimatter. >> freedom breeds and equality. >> he's always to the right, and almost always in the wrong. >> anything complicated it confuses mr. bu

buckley and liberal gore vidal.he debates took place during the democratic and republican party presidential nominating conventions. brian: robert gordon, why did you do this documentary on bill buckley and gore vidal? robert: because it was exhilarating to watch them have dialogue back and forth and though it was 45 years ago, it spoke very much to the present tense. brian: and i'll ask the same to your partner in crime over here. morgan: robert called me and said he had come across a bootleg tape of some of these debate between william buckley and gore vidal. did i want to see them? absolutely, i wanted to see them. [laughter] i was very interested in him as a character. buckley was someone we all knew from being such a tv presence, but when i saw the debates i saw something that was really speaking to today as much as it was to 1968. and then we got excited and , decided to make a film about it. brian: when did they start to get there? and what was the point of your documentary? robert: they had their first confr

buckley. they debated the question has the american dream been at the expense of the american negro? this was host eded at college in menenville, oregon. >> it's difficult to imagine this as a key note given the first two panel these morning, right? so i want to add this as my contribution to the conversation. is that okay? it's reflective of my leveling impulses plus the brilliance that has been on display is indicative of what it means to think seriously in public with others. and i just want to join in that effort. i want to thank nick. is his spirit amazing? just -- and that smile, he's constantly smiling. so this is my first time to oregon and it's my first time here and i've been literally overwhelmed, literally, patrick, overwhelmed by the beauty of this place. and it reminds me of my own experience when i first got out of graduate clej school. my first job was at bodien college in maine. i'm a country boy from mississippi, my wife is from jamaica. and we were in maine. but it was an am

>> i think buckley was the one who couldn't let it go. gore would have just bragged about it at dinner parties the rest of his life and that would have been it. i think buckley really felt like he had to answer to himself for something that had happened and i think for buckley it was trying to explain why he lost his cool, when he was the king of not losing his cool. >> so it was uncharacteristically losing his cool because that's what it was. it was unlike any other moment in his career. and i think that by showing that he couldn't let it go, gore realized that he could continue to enjoy that moment of victory by bringing it up at every opportunity he was given. >> brown: the spark between the two heavyweights was a hit with television audiences and a boon for abc, then a relatively new network desperate to stand out from its competitors. sensing a good thing, executives there decided that instead of covering the conventions in full, they could punctuate the coverage with vidal and buckley's political-- and sometimes personal-- commentar

. > for buckley, the doll with the devil. -- for buckley, vidal was the devil. brian: his brother is not nearly as well-known as jim buckley the senator. did you ask him to do this? morgan: we interviewed him. very knowledgeable and sweet man. but oddly, was very different than bill. he and his other brother were very similar. james was almost from a different family, which is probably why he was a successful politician. brian: before we run completely out of time, what's next? robert: might be next documentary, might be next book. someone is interested in my stacks record book. it might turn into something. brian: you did an oscar-winning 20 feet from starting on? was that just you -- 20 feet from stardom. with that issue? morgan: i have a feature coming out with yo-yo ma area we will premiere in the fall. brian: our guests have been morgan neville who lives in los angeles and has done a lot of documentaries with our other guest who lives in memphis. we thank you for bringing us the best of enemies. >> for free transcripts, or to give us your comments about thi

that is contributed to goldwater, buckley and reagan and finally in the summing up these 14 liters i'm going to give you a quote from ronald reagan that he set himself to think it could be said of all 14. he once said i never thought of myself as a great man can adjust a man committed to great ideas. i've always believed that individuals should take priority over the state. history has taught me that this is what sets america apart. so there you have it. 14 liters, jefferson to reagan. i want to thank you all for letting me come today. and if we've got time we will have a few questions. [applause] >> as long as i know there's nothing biblically about 14. seven is a member so maybe there is something difficult. but as i went through there was something that i thought about it and took out and then there were - as i went through there were couples i didn't know so much about and he deserves to be in there so somehow it just wound up as 14. but i didn't start off by saying i've got to find 14. >> for those that didn't quite make the cut and didn't quite get into that. >> i started on the

that we build up our successful proposition c housing bonds and i think the majors advisor, jeff buckley, and his staff. to thank them for their hard work but i know we need to do much more. i also want to say i'm in agreement with supervisor yee to look more specifically at the size of units that working families have units that are big enough. i support workforce housing and middle income people to have parts of housing bonds, but i dislike when it's paired against housing that is for our most vulnerable and lowest income people. that's what i say we need much more. the last point i want to make is gauche and i probably sound like a broken record, gauche but i know is that baby boomers turning to seniors that were trying to do her best to be an aging friendly city i'm just wondering, what percentages, what kinds of housing are we doing within our bigger bonds that are really looking at seniors. but we've done the budget analyst reports and analysis on housing needs of seniors, and showing that the population is going to boom so it'll be one third of our city, people over 60 or 65. many
