eleanor. eleanor: we'll see. there are a lot of -- clarence: campaign got launched on these issues but hasn't finished yet. eleanor: there are a lot of people here legally who are going to vote and a republican who can't get -- pat: and illegal people who also vote. eleanor: i don't believe that's the case. a republican who can't get 40% of this hispanic vote is not going to do well in a general election. john: will the court be swayed by the mexican national who times yet killed five people this week? i ask you, you want to try that? eleanor: no. there's still a round robin on that, i want to register my no. tom: no, i don't think they'll take that into consideration. you need to secure the border which i don't think lib rahles are serious about. -- liberals are serious about. and congress has a role. founders intended congress to do this. it's not the role of the exec i have to decide -- eleanor: you're talking about citizens. the republican party is so big on family values. what about famil

there were i'll start with eleanor. holly wasn't the only african-american friend that eleanor had.in fact, the friendship with mary was better known and in the double acp, and they argue that i think i agree with her -- and it was a start, and so -- also they wanted things from her. these are institutional leaders. you know, she is president of the college. president of the national counsel of negro women. walter white is executive secretary of the naac px. so in their dealings with eleanor they're dealing with the constituencies. polly represented no o? other than young people like herself. she could deliver votes. you know, and walter white could. she could deliver votes. but she and so she was very brash, and they apparently were afraid to go very far because they were always thinking about the political consequences. s it always calculating, and so polly believed and i think it was right that her relationship was different because in some way she felt she had nothing to lose and she could speak her mind. there were other young people, african-americans that telemother had relat

eleanor jump in. eleanor: i do understand the allure of the popular vote. every four years, there is a lot of debate about whether it should be reformed, should the process start in the two states that are not characteristic of the country, iowa and new hampshire. but after all this talk, there is a kind of rough justice that comes out of all of this. -- i think it would be a lot of room there for manipulation, too. host: let's go to glenville, minnesota, good morning. caller: good morning. eleanorst calling about alluding to bernie sanders perhaps should drop out for hillary clinton say, the democrat's sake, and i am a bernie sanders supporter. i know a lot of people who are. it is a must unanimous, except for one of your previous callers re, we are not voting for hillary clinton if sanders does not get the nomination. i know a lot of people are planning on writing him in our voting independent. i hope they're joking about voting for donald trump if bernie sanders does not get it, but i think hillary clinton will get a lot fewer votes than many people thin

eleanor: i don't think he has done everything wrong.he fact that he has accomplished what he has is incredible. here is a 74-year-old legislator who has been in washington almost any four years. -- 34 years. rather inconsequential member of congress. he suddenly bursts on the scene, finds out where the the zeitgeist is, it brings all the people to the ballot. i don't know that he was ever destined or would have been destined to go the distance as a socialist,mocratic but the fact that he has drawn attention to the issues that he cares about and a country cares about, he has affected the conversation on the democratic side. going against clinton more know thatly, i don't that would pay off for him over the long run. i think he really has gotten her into fighting shape. everything he brings up as a republican candidate would bring up in a much harsher way. one of the positions is certainly going after her on speaking fees, and i am talking about donald trump as the republican nominee. i don't think he will go after her on receiving money

and she ask -- she didn't really direct eleanor but told her how fair this was and eleanor leaned on franklin who was a graduate of harvard college to inquire. and he did. he wrote that it's not clear to me if you see the letter, and i have this -- i have an excerpt of it in the book that is not clear that franklin cared about this as much as eleanor did. [laughter] in fact, his letter is almost kind of facetious. i think he said something like the president was like he said ma'am, i don't mean to -- i don't you to think you have to develop, build a new dorm for this young colored lady or something like that but when you get a chance get a dean to write about this situation. well, he was going through the motions because eleanor was leaning on him in pol polly behf so she didn't get to go. she went to the university of california berkeley. but she did -- she did act. you know, she tried to move things where she could. >> okay. there's another case i'll mention of 50 soldiers, still i'm sorry, seamen who were court-martials and polly field it was unfair. covering the case of the los a

. >> eleanor? >> i agree with that. if trump loses ohio to john kasich and florida to marco rubio, then each of those candidates gets a small little pile of delegates and would be enough to deny trump the 1237 to capture the nomination. what you're seeing now, though, is a republican party that's completely at war with itself. some people want to start a new party. some people want to make their peace with trump. they're saying, look, these bringing in blue collar workers. let's not look a gift horse in the mouth. some are ready to do anything, go to the convention, up-end trump, because they figure he's going to lose the white house, he's going to lose the senate, maybe even the house. and with the supreme court at stake, the party figures, you know, all the marbles are on the table and they don't trust them to donald trump. i think, you know, democrats are not sitting on the sidelines cheering, because this is a phenomenon that we haven't seen before. he has tapped into a vein of misogyny and hate and white supremacy

eleanor, iel like feel like i'm talking to a rock star. i went to college in 1969 was when i first entered school. we fought so many causes and of course gloria was a leader and then you came along and i was totally for everything that i saw you do -- deal with now. me.as a golden age to is, having been through the trenches of civil rights and voting acts and planned parenthood and all of that. we wentt feels like back 40 years, especially here in texas. fightinges that we are are still the same battles. and theymore subtle are trying to get around things and i just want to know, do you have that same feeling? that we are having to go over old ground again? 65 and it makes me crazy every time i hear just because i'm older, i should be conservative. host: that is sue in austin texas. some battles from texas reaching the supreme court. guest: it is terrible. we are under a backlash, a right-wing black -- backlash. they are restricting the right not only to abortion, but also to birth control. familyuts, cuts in planning for poor women. restr

it was left by a woman called eleanor wim bish, whose son was killed in action in vietnam. she has been leaving this type of object since the wall was first dedicated. this one specifically mentions, it was from '83, but this one specifically mentions her diary that she wrote the year previous, in 1982, the date she was there, the date the wall was dedicated and she describes seeing his name on the wall for the first time. and walking up to the wall, seeing his name and what she felt seeing his name, but then also looking around and seeing all the other people around her, who are also touching the names of their loved ones. so it describes how overwhelming that was for her. she continued to leave letters like this, wrapped in plastic, arrayed on a poster board for at least 10, 15 years, for her son. she would do it on his birthday, on the day he died, mother's day, veterans day, christmas, easter, things like that, just for the holidays that he missed. >> the day was unseasonably warm and sunny when we arrived in washington, d.c. we got out of the car and started walking to

eleanor roosevelt, what role did she play? where she is enthusiastic as for slater about this passion that fdr had for saving our land? >> a great question. i write a lot about eleanor roosevelt to end their marriage in their book as i have to. what i think scholars have missed about their marriage is they had a shared love for an echo system, a treasured place, a sanctified landscape, the hudson river valley. that river meant everything to them and they would go on birdwatching trips together, fdr was more of an enthusiast than she was. i write about in the middle of world war ii them going to find golden eagles and together and more importantly she wrote in her my day columns regularly about america's woodlands, force, lakes, lakes, species, she worked with the audubon movement, she tried to get progressive laws for animal protection, she was a true equal, fdr had a little more passion on how to do it, he was more into the science and the biology, she was more of a pastoralists looking at beautiful places, but she wrote bett

the first two people you come up with are nancy reagan and hillary clinton after that you'll have eleanor roosevelt and folks like that. and she really, i think, in hindsight helped usher in the new era where the public is used to the first lady being both a political and personal adviser to the president and that it's more -- she almost -- she got criticized a lot at time because she was the most overt at the time since eleanor roosevelt in hindsight people realize, okay, nancy reagan was the same for ronald reagan as hillary clinton was for bill clintonen it respect in hindsight in her role that she got while first lady. >> to that end, what you're saying, chuck, it seems as if republican presidential candidates would seek her blessing, her endorsement for their candidacies because of the role you are describing. >> no, there is. and i think that, again, this was, you know, she's especially in the last, i'd say, decade or so, really is just viewed as this revered figure in the republican party and in the conservative movement, and i think her adding her name to any presidential campaign
