douglas has speeches about lincoln that are highly critical. douglas never voted for lincoln. that is really interesting, even in 1864, he doesn't vote for lincoln. isthinks that lincoln committed to muster the union and doesn't care as much about the slaves. there is fascinating material in douglass's magazine called douglass's monthly in which month after month, he is going after lincoln. if i to colonize blacks into central america. the revision as part of my reading is that this was a more prickly relationship than has been previously been thought. that doesn't mean that by 1855 that these people haven't profoundly influenced each other. i think that is also there. i figured as one of more fascinating stories about the civil war, this particular relationship. lincoln was keeping an ion douglas. he was reading what he was saying as evidence of that. douglas was following the 1858.n douglas, it was in to make a long argument short, what i argue in my book is that there is a more profound human connection between frederick douglas and john brown and between frederick douglass

douglas. when steven a. douglas comes to you and says let's let popular sovereignty solve the slavery in the territories, what does that sound like? that's self-government, isn't it? that's democracy. they're going to let the people on the ground make the choices, right? self-government. all right. yes. the doctrine of self-government is right, absolutely and eter l eternally right, but it has no just application. or perhaps i should rather say that whether it has such application depends on whether a negro is not or is a man. if the negro is a man, is it not to that extent a total destruction of self-government, to say that he, too, shall not govern himself? you talk about popular sovereignty as an example of self-government, and then you take a whole category of people and you exclude them from governing themselves. that's not really self-government. that's a fraud. that's a bad imitation of self-government. you know what the problem is, lincoln says, it's not just that steven a. douglas is

douglas -- >> host: oh, douglas. >> guest: douglas, the little giant, the senator from illinois, is most powerful figure from illinois. he's on the national stage. he is young. he is already run for president in 1852. he is not even -- run when hi is 37 years old. 1852. a meteor. lincoln is envious of him. says his acolossus and i walk underneath his legs. he has been his rival for decades and has been attacking him for decades. they have rival newspapers in springfield. editorials flying back and forth. and lincoln feels completely insignificant. douglas is everything and then douglas blows up the world because his ambition is thwarted. he has run for president, didn't get the nomination. he wants the nomination, in 1856. so he needs to do something enormous. he wants to build a transcontinental railroad across the united states, get credit for it. he also wants to make money off it, and he has bought land in dubuque, iowa, and he made a lot of money off the illinois stroll because the owned the lakefront in chicago and sold it to the ic as the right of way land after he passed the illi

douglas >> douglas. >> douglas, the little giant, the senator from illinois is the most powerful figure from illinois. he is on the national stage.fo he is young, he has already run for president in 1852. he is not even - he has run when he was 37 years old. he is a meteor, lincoln is envious of him. he says he is a colossus and i walked underneath his legs. he has been his rival for decades. he has been attacking them for decades. in rival newspapers in springfield. you know, editorials flying back and forth. and lincoln feels completely insignificant. douglas is everything. and then douglas blows up the world. because his ambition is thwarted. he has run for president, did not get the nomination.he wants the nomination. in 1856. so he needs to do something enormous. he wants to build a transcontinental railroad. across the united states, get credit for it. he also wants to make money off of it. and he has bought land in the booth i want and in minnesota, both northern and central routes. and i should add that he made a lot of money off of the illinois central. because he owned the lak

interestingly, the companion case of douglas had a much more controversial history. maybe we can get into that a bit later. >> yes, i'd like to do that. now, judge boasberg and ms. stewart, you prosecuted cases in both the supreme court and the district of columbia and in the federal court. can you comment on the impact of this decision in your day to day lives? ms. stewart, why don't you answer that question first. >> sure. gideon was decided before i was born, i'm proud to say, not much more, but -- and so it's all i've ever known. i cannot actually imagine a society in which a defendant does not have the right to counsel. and most prosecutors would say that the case of gideon versus wainwright or most people would think that prosecutors would not be pleased with the decision and that they would -- their job would be easier if gideon had been decided the other way. they would be able to obtain convictions more easily, however, that's just not the case. the job of the prosecutor is not just to obtain convictions, but rather to seek justice and seeking justice is far

and they decided to have douglas reargued along with gideon. and interestingly the theory of douglas about the right to counsel on appeal rests on really equal protection notions where as gideon rests on due process notions. and startlingly the majority opinion in the douglas case does not cite gideon. even though they came down on the same day. much less discussed. >> i gather from what you were saying before we met that the decision in douglas was not unanimous. >> no, it was 6-3 and justice harlan wrote a dissenting opinion explaining why in his view it was perfectly fine not to have appointed counsel on appeal. even though he agreed with the result in gideon itself and his explanation is very puzzling because you would have thought it would be rather difficult for an indiggant defendant to argue the appellate case, and i think they were concerned about their own pauper cases. would they have to appoint lawyers in the supreme court for the petitions and that's one of the things that harlan said. >> which brings us to another area of this dec

>> the douglas case was a companion case to giddeon. it had been hanging around for much longer than giddeon. the douglas case was granted early in the 61 term and argued during the 61 term. it involved not only the question of whether there should be appointed council on appeal but also whether at the trial there which occurred in california the public defender had represented the defendants in the case and whether he had a conflict of interest. if you look at the papers it has been very helpful to me. looking at the justice's papers and what you find is that they are sitting there with this douglas case before giddeon was granted. we can't very well say that when we still had it on the books. we haven't held it on trial. what are they supposed to do about this. and then eventually they were going to dismiss it and then the court granted in giddeon and they decided to have douglas reargue along with giddeon. interestingly the theory of douglas about the right to council rests on equal protection notions where as giddeon rests on due pr

douglas: it is a deep ironic moment.re has always been a bit of a disconnect between the byortunity represented donald -- by president trump and his ability to carry republican majorities. the business community was quite excited about that. conduct of the campaign and the conduct of the presidency itself. a lot of reservations about the rhetoric and the style and presentations of the president. his unwillingness to be disciplined and stay on message. that has always been a cause of concern and in this case, the latter has outweighed the former. david: you know congress well. does this make one bit of difference to congress? are they going to vote on tax reform or not? douglas: i think it makes an enormous difference. what congress needs more than anything else is a white house that is willing to give it the air coverage to get their votes and for a president to stand up and say they are proud of representative ask or senator why -- representative x or senator y. david: do you have a sense of what the attitude is, partic

he makes it clear that douglas will not get any patronage. stephen douglas spent $3000 of his own money to elect james buchanan in 1856. -- $40,000 of his own money to let james buchanan in 1856. then he goes further when douglas breaks with him over kansas, he proscribes and then democrats inasite congress that he controls. you have two big figures that are at loggerheads. he does nothing to recognize the growing antagonism that many northern white working voters have towards what they call the slave power. this story has been told in every textbook. i don't need to rehearse it at length. the issue was not slavery or no slavery in the late 1850's. the issue was what is the issue of the west? felt you were going to have more inequality and poverty and trouble socially. southerners believed if you close up the west to them, slavery cannot prosper as it is prospering. it is prospering in the 1850's. that this collision over what is happening in the west. james buchanan has always been a trimmer on this issue. when it came up in the 1840's, he w

douglas spent $40,000 of his own money helping to elect buchanan in 1856.uchanan rewards him by giving him no patronage, he's making it clear he's going to give all the patronage to the west to senator jesse bright and he goes further when douglas breaks with him over kansas. he actually, what we would call proscribes and then removes douglas democrats from offices that he controls. so what you've got here is two big powers in the democratic party, and from the get-go, they're at loggerheads. he does not do anything to recognize the growing antagonism that many northern white working voters have towards what they call the slave power this is a story that's been told in every textbook and i don't really need to rehearse it at length. but the issue in the united states was not slavery or no slavery. in the late 1850s. the issue was what's the future of the west? white working people felt if you close off the west to them, they're going to be bottled up and you're going to have more inequality, more poverty, more trouble socially. southerners similarly believe

for that, he doesn't pick douglas. douglas has been arguing for equal population since the '40s. they all decide brennen would be the right choice. you point out brennen's tone there at the end it's more gentle, moderate. and they know that stuart's vote is tenuous, they have to hold onto him. which we said earlier, really gets the issue of jurisdiction -- >> we haven't said it yet, but when the vote takes place, if the chief justices in the majority, he or she would assign the opinion writing to himself, herself or whoever they want to do. if the chief justice is not in the majority, then the senior most justices does the assignment. there's a lot of politics involved in that. justice brennen was one of the younger members of the court -- least experienced members of the court. but part of that was as doug was saying, chief justice warren wanted the opinion to be written very carefully, very narrowly so he could hold the majority. >> now at the 30 minutes mark, so we have to move through. why were there only eight votes? >> there are only eight votes because charles whittaker th

but that wasn't the case for rasul douglas.les cornerback was hardly recruited out of high school in east orange new jersey, somehow, some way he made his way to the big show. rasul douglas took around route to the nfl, first he played at nassau community college in new york. from there, he transferred to a big-time program at west virginia where technical snafu disrupt the his transition. >> i had online class. i took it shut down i could never transfer it over. i was ineligible. then maybe two days before the first game the grade system popped up. got the transfers faxed over and it was like i was eligible first couple games. >> after becoming eligible and learning a new defense, things again clicked for douglas in his senior year with the mounter nears he led the nation with eight picks and worked his way up the draft board with the eagles taking him in the third round. >> one of things that improved me about rasul is that every time we sort of taken up a step up in competition he sort of met that challenge. you know, it mig

douglas did doubt his integrity. after, in january when rehnquist joined the court, burger makes a motion to have the cases three argued. re-argued. >> douglas and brennan are very skeptical about this because they think it will slip the balance a result instead of a 4-3 decision, a 5-4 decision against abortion rights. then that crisis renews in may and june when justice blackmun distributes his first draft. again, the motion is made to be argued. the justices explode, especially justice douglas. he writes a scathing dissent that he wants to issue, before the end of the term, condemning burger for allowing the manipulation of the court. he holds that dissent, but its sneaks into the press and is on the front page of the washington post on the fourth of july weekend. it gets him a front page of the new york times the next day. which raises tension within the court. the crisis passes, they agree to reargue and it is re-argued in october of 1972. host: there was a presidential election going on. as we try to teach peop

mark: douglas: -- douglas: it is odd because everyone has their own view on the marketplace. the beauty of gold. you can use it for your perspective. gold has been recognized for 5000 years as money, it is recognized around the world through all cultures as something valuable and inherently, there is intrinsic value in gold. that and recognize that gold does not have counterparty risk, like monetary instruments do. that is the important thing. it doesn't have counterparty risk. julia: what about seasonal impact as we head to the back end of the year? typically, during the beginning of the year, we see good performance. as we get into this ring, global selloff. ine spring we see the bottom the year's price. when we get is august and september, we see a boy and gold market as people are hedging themselves in terms of their profits or portfolio. we will seefall, the correction in the marketplace. people will position into gold to protect themselves from that. julie: 12% of your fund is an physical gold. most of the rest of it is an gold-mining stocks or precious metals stocks. i

but douglas also said build high his statues. this is a statue of lincoln lifting a half naked person of color with chains broken around him. and is it a rising slave or is it a kneeling slave and that's something that the african american community grapples with. this is in the symbolic shadow of frederic douglas's home. there are many demands floating about to do something with that piece. when lincoln was inaugurated and talked about the sin of slavery his second inauguration, he looked at a statue of george washington in the plaza of the u.s. capital for both of his inaugurations. even that was taken away. people thought it lose crows was washington was bare chested. they called him georgie in the bath. you can still see it. these things do change. i don't like destruction particularly. i like contest. gary gallagher and joan wall took edith and me to see a monument in santa fe, a white victory over a native american tribe. and it sits in a plaza where american indian merchants come and sell their wares. and it has a phrase o
