cady without perhaps intending to be cruel said to his daughter elizabeth several times because elizabeth was a very smart little girl, and loved books and was very curious and interested in the world she lived in and her father said to her several times if only you had been a boy. that's one way to create a social activist. he is saying basically you're the wrong gender. he said that to her once on the day of her brother's funeral. she had a brother that died young. that happened a lot in the 19th century, children would die of childhood diseases and he said that to her on the day of her brother's funeral, if only you had been a boy, so that is the atmosphere that elizabeth cady grows up in. her parents are not reformers by any stretch, but she had relatives who were. one of her cousins was an abolitionist and she through her cousin met other reformers and abolitionists and married an abolitionist when she was in her 20s, henry stanton, and the parents weren't happy because he didn't have much money and he was an abolitionist and went off on the lecture circuit but she was in love with h

my job in writing elizabeth the queen was not only to explain what she does, but to tell what she is really like and to take the reader as close as possible to elizabeth, a human being, the wife, the mother and a friend as well as the highly respected leader. today i'm going to talk first about what it was like to write about queen elizabeth and a second, i would like to share some of the surprising discoveries i made out the clean because she is the best known the woman in the world. people feel as if the know her, but the real woman is very different from the woman in velvet. this is my hero the sixth biography all of them about larger-than-life characters that barbara mentioned, but there is no one like the queen and she lives in herniel in this remarkable world. while other heads of state have come and gone, he elizabeth is the longest serving leader in the world spanning the 20th and 21st centuries. she's the 40 of monarchs and a thousand year history of the british monarchy branding of the united kingdom of england, wales, scotland and northern ireland along with 15 realms and

>> no, i don't know elizabeth warren. >> who? martha coakley. i mean elizabeth warren, thank you very much. >> you want to try that again? >> perfect. that actually goes hand in hand with a fantastic cover profile of elizabeth warren by e.j. graph at "the nation" magazine and the same week that there's a review of her in "the national review." the latest "boston globe" poll has the two candidates running neck and neck. and it's a fascinating race for a whole bunch of reasons. elizabeth warren has some kind of innate charisma, some sort of captivating magic about her that has to do with the stances she's taken, her foresight about the problems in the financial/industrial complex. the fights in the bankruptcy law, the fights she's picked and the idea she has the vision about the core unfairness about the financialized unequal american political economy. and i think one of the great points ej graph makes in the piece is there's a disconnect between "the nation" readers she's got a win in massachusetts in running your first election

but i mean this, just as i said to elizabeth.mpaign and be out and meet people. but massachusetts has a reason to be proud right now with these two strong candidates. you listen to scott talk. and we don't hear a lot of people talking like this in washington anymore, talking about bipartisanship. >> no. somehow, the political culture here still allows that kind of comradery, the way you both decided not to take the third party stuff. can i ask you a question? we have this great history of moderate republicans here in massachusetts. are you proud to say you're a moderate? >> absolutely. senator brook was a -- >> we need more people saying they are moderate. >> i have spoken to senator brook. we have the best of both worlds. people like the fact that they can have the best of both worlds. and we work together, john and i, hand in hand on issues that affect massachusetts. and that's critically important to have two senators working together for the best interest of massachusetts. there are a lot of states that can't say that. that's

turn the table on bob hope, who he once introduced, i believe, it may have been a dinner for queen elizabeth, but any event, hope was there, and president reagan introduced hope as someone who had performed for seven american presidents and entertained four. great line. >> great line. >> did the bushes have favorite entertainers? >> oh, yeah. i think, we had -- we always had an eclectic mix. i remember having lyle lovett, we had natalie cole, who was fabulous, for one of the dinners. we had opera singers, we had the boys choir of harlem, i think, for one of the ladies lunches. we always try to -- you would try to have sense who the visiting head of state, if it was the state dinner, if they had a preference, whether it was classical or temporary, and we'd try to book them. and booking the entertainment is challenging. >> has it gotten harder? have you ever had an entertainer say, a, we want to be paid, or, b, we won't come because of politics? >> no, we didn't ask them. no. no, but they -- no, most of them usually came from new york, and so i think we sent them shuttle tickets, a driver woul

but elizabeth did not come across that well here. it's true, because she always claimed that she only knew there was a one nightstand, that she was really in the dark. and what we're hearing in this, it's clear from the voice mails that we heard today from john edwards, that she heard about a lot of this at a lot of different steps along the way. that not only was it there's knowing and there's knowing, but she discovered many things about his relationship with rielle hunter as time went on. and that she seems to have been, you know, at one point the lawyers were even saying, you know, one of the main reasons he was out there is because elizabeth wanted to campaign so much. and it really did paint a picture of elizabeth being more involved with this than we maybe thought. >> hampton, i want to get a key point about this guy. the reason john edwards had a chance of being president, the reason he was a senator from north carolina is he was an astoundingly successful trial lawyer. he was able to win over juries. rural juries. and win th

and elizabeth alexander stevens is noteworthy mostly because of where she lived. she lived in essex county, new jersey. she was married to a wealthy man who died, and after he died she moved into essex county where she owned a substantial amount of property on which she paid taxes. why is this significant? well, in new jersey, alone among all the 13 states, women were allowed to vote to cast ballots for candidates to local, state, and federal office from the period 1776 to 1807. this is over 100 years before the passage of the 19th amendment. so how was this possible? it was possible because in the 18th century both in britain and in america suffrage was not considered a natural right. it was considered a privilege of property, a property right. only those owning a certain amount of property were allowed to vote or hold public office. by custom this meant men, although theoretically it could have included women. but it didn't. by custom only men voted. now, traditionally, men owned most of the land. but also by custom married women could not own property, but sing

nobody believes what elizabeth warren is selling on him. scott brown has been underestimated by the national democrats. that does not match with local democrats are saying. scott brown is running a great campaign and we feel good about our chance. i think clear miscast -- a thing clear mccaskill has a good chance. she could be more out of touch with the state of missouri. the state has gone away from her. there is no one who has been more supportive of the president's agenda. we have three strong candidates running and i don't know who will be the nominee but either one of them will beat centre mccaskill. >> do you want to defend? >> he did not talk about who is running on the republican side. this is an example where we have simply co-op debate nrc in this cycle. a month and a half ago, they were out beating the drums to get the state auditor to run. they might not want to be a cemetersenator. they know event claire mccaskill is a fighter and a bill that had the closest chance of tapping discretionary spending in the last cycle was a bill
