fdr was the governor of new york. fdr loved big navy. theodore roosevelt conservation and natural resources heirlooms of america. fdr loved all of those. theodore roosevelt had a nice and fdr married her. you cannot deal with all the resolution of the new deal years in the civilian conservation corps and the like which i'll talk about in a minute without thinking about gr. theodore roosevelt created two mechanisms as president that on national were celebrating the system under their panic at by woodrow wilson.6 by woodr but that organic act from a national park has to go througho congress. so theodore roosevelt as president would do that from 1901 to 1909 he pushed her crater lake in oregon from the mesa verde and colorado, wind cave in south dakota and others. you'd are roosevelt was president to create two mechanisms which all presidents have used and one is calledatiol national monuments and the idea is built on the antiquities act of the tina six. the antiquities act with an elastic piece of legislation that set for scientific reason

what happened by the time fdr died, the relationship was a longer passionate. the passionate part lasted six years then hick threw tremendous difficulty managed to except the fact she would not be number one which was her dream and could not go off with eleanor to have a private relationship with all of these people in her life sought that point she was in love with a young man who was a radical and then another person so there was a lot of people but hick said she was one of many and that was painful but that point if she would have any relationship with eleanor she had to except that. -- except that so she struggled to get it under control to not have an outburst so they remained dear friends and correspondence. she had diabetes and lived by herself and a cottage but then she could not support that sought 1.elenore heard she was not paying her rent so eleanor sent for her and have her come to high park - - hyde park she lived with her but then got her own place but towards the end of life she had a small victory to began writing children's books as she wrote

as dane said, i am writing the final volume of my fdr at work trilogy. i am particularly pleased to be able to talk today during this awful presidential election campaign and although each panelist only has very short time to speak, and there are so many, the most wonderful thing about winston churchill is there are so many aspects of his life, and lessons of his life to look at. in this short time period, i will address two specific topics from the relationship between franklin roosevelt and winston churchill. our panel is here to talk about the three presidents that winston churchill had close relationships. president truman, franklin roosevelt and dwight eisenhower. we missed out john f. kennedy. he is my particular hero. i think it's best in this brief moment that we have together to address just to aspects of that churchill fdr relationship, or friendship. the first is the actual nature of that friendship between fdr and churchill. the relationship which, as you know, ended rather badly. winston declined to attend the funeral of his great friend her

but fdr was trying to get through lynn lee trying to get the draft passed in congress and so on.was there a separate parallel east to what was going on that was coordinated and so on? >> this was both part of the problem of all of these war agencies set up, i mean fdr qowld set these things up essentially left and right and tons of overlap. you know, if you look at the executive order for exampleing this office civilian had four different components. morale building and the office of war information. there were many agencies and eleanor roosevelt produces a -- a poster or nutrition, and the federal security agency which is led by a former indiana governor paul mcnutt who thought that her agency was encroaching on his mission. i said we've already basically produced this poster you know we've already done this. and so the duplication and lack of coordination mcleash who comes into the government and helps i believe not overstating propgandize he has ideas for i believe laguardia won't listen to him so there's kind of a really kind of chaos i think to -- to the setting up of these

so, fdr had a number of flirtations.they may have been sexual relationships and he'd like to have women around him who adored him and laughed at his jokes and who shared his cocktail hour what he called the children's hour. eleanor wasn' wasn't a person te had somebody else and there's an interesting new book by the way. but i think that he really accepted all of the relationships because they got him off the hook and they would separate parallel lives. he liked some of his friends a lot and helped build together and called it their love nest. you have to make some leaps about how much they knew because they didn't talk about this at least publicly. >> reporters loved eleanor and because of the old one in press conferences which were her idea a lot of women got jobs. sometimes she was described as a news hawk or manage. there would be those kind of descriptions of her. and there was a subtext that that was as far as it went i would say. >> the roosevelts have children and roosevelt was obviously another. i'm undergoing i

if we could get close enough to take fdr there. it was written to the president that he must simply go to see this links on the impairments. churchill turned abruptly away and said, we will wait for you in the car. outside in the simmering sunshine, his eyes are bright with tears. the end of that conference -- that same conference, and sarah's words, as it was thanksgiving, we had turkey. the president carved a giant turkey for 20 people like a professional. he made little speeches afterward and tears were flowing down his cheeks. a band composed of american boys played beautifully in the background, and everyone saying "home on the range." new year 1944 saw churchill seriously ill in america -- -- in marrakesh with pneumonia. on november 18, he made an unexpected return to the house of commons and was flushed with pleasure and emotion and hardly had he sat down when two large tears began to trickle down his cheeks. he mopped them clumsily with a handkerchief. kennethd, the late rose, a very fine historian, told charles moore that

he cried in april 1945 at fdr's memorial service and when he visited his grave after the war. on the fourth of may, there were -- the fourth of may 1945 -- there were celebratory drinks with the chief of staff. according to alan brooke's diary, there were tears in his eyes for all we had done. an appalling moment, because alan brooke failed to make a speech thanking churchill for everything he had done, and it was one of the great missed opportunities for those chiefs of staff to show their appreciation to the prime minister. later that month after the coalition government was broken up, churchill was at home for those who served there during the war. it was also written in a diary that at the familiar cabinet table, now draped as a buffet, he addressed this with tears streaming down his cheeks. he said that we all came together and stayed together as a united band of friends in a trying time and history would recognize this. the lights of history will shine on your helmet, he said. two months later, patrick and elizabeth dined with him when the results of the 1945 election ca

i was already when i was talking about fdr years older than he was at the end of his life. he was just 63 on the day that he died april 12, 1945. i'm old enough to remember that day the way many of us render november 22, 1963 and all of us i suppose remember september 11, 2001. on the today long ago, my favorite radio serial captain midnight was interrupted by republican from georgia. this is how they did things before social media. a deep voice came out of a box that said we interrupt this program to bring you an important news bulletin, president roosevelt is dead or words to that effect. these were followed by music and captain midnight didn't return for several days. it could be my interest in the subject started their come it could be but i don't think so. i think i was doing what i have done through a long career either sensing a story that seemed to me hadn't been fully told or at least hadn't been told to my satisfaction as i did my reading. at the time span i covered in my book was ostensibly quite riveting just 17 months, not quite a year and a half a as i finally

you look at hoover proceeding fdr.s mind set couldn't deal with what he had to do to change for the depression that had set in. the temperament does depend on the time, but as i say, i've chosen the people i'm going to live with. that's why i'm chosen lincoln, fdr. he's an interesting character. >> that's what i wanted to ask you. i wanted to ask you about lbj. he had a fiery personal thety and i think some would look at him in the rear-view mirror and say did he have the perfect temperament to be president? it's arguable, but look how much he accomplished on civil rights et cetera. >> he's one of the example os a person who was perfectly suited. civil rights, medicare. age, education. he was charming and persuasive and had conviction. so, dealing with the congress, nobody was better probably in the history of our county tri, but when you're dealing with foreign policy. you can't persuade who chiu min to stop twar, then it becomes more complicated. he was an interesting character. he might yell and scream, then feel ba

americans owe my new one president, fdr for 12 years.f course he was a far more benign character then stalin. >> i have a more general question. how do you seek this character [inaudible] y? >> thank you for asking that in thank you through reading other books as well. i like to portray an era through one character's end with wallenberg it was the holocaust. and the book about my parents, and demands of the thai people, life under soviet rule with my book about george polk. it's about america engaging for the first time as a world power. they think we don't really understand an area until we feel it. otherwise it is dry academic. it is factual and three human story through portraying a character that we can somehow identify with, we are more able to understand and era. but noel field, the remarkable fact of my parents having been the only journalist to have met to and of course i did hear my parents talk about the strange god and then i started thinking that we've been talking about the parallels between the two areas and that this ameri

fdr built the indoor pool. gerald ford built an outdoor pool.d nixon paved fdr's pool and built a one-lane bowling alley. dwight eisenhower built a putting green. jimmy carter put up solar panels. ronald reagan took them down. president obama added basketball hoops and a put lines on the tennis courts so he could play fuel court games. and each of the decisions offers a small glimpse into the personality of a president. none of them has created any kind of lasting responsibility for the presidents who come afterwards. that, however, might be about to change. tomorrow is the final harvest of the white house kitchen garden. the kitchen garden at the white house is the project, of course, of the first lady. it's planted on the south lawn of the white house. and if you didn't think michelle obama was nails and had a good political sense, let me tell you, she is nails and she has a good political sense. today before the final harvest, the first lady cemented the garden's place at the white house using some actual cement. she unveiled an expanded gard

fdr are the best known. we can argue they are the most important because they helped to define the direction of the war on the anglo american side. i want to look at the postwar trips. he came to visit the relatively 1946 onident truman in a trip that included the famous iron curtain speech that we have heard mentioned several times. the long train trip out to jefferson, missouri, playing cards and drinking and talking. and by car to. --. i'm guessing most of you have never been there, it is a little out of the way. i recommend you go. it is a wonderful visit. that-town, small campus, church totally reconstructed. that is why you need to do two things if you go to fulton. , the church redone, i was there level he wants when the organ was playing, and you can really imagine it in its original london location. the spectacular churchill museum dramatically redone six years ago. well worth seeing. times as her german. three times to see -- four times to see truman. higherimes to see as a -- eisenhower. power, as

is in the middle of the depression but fdr has not yet come as -- as the savior and execution had an enormous impact on public life, many very -- many american intellectuals were attracted to communism, can you tell us? >> yeah, absolutely. you know, larissa, there are so many parallels between that age and our present era, sort of general din -- disenchantment and noel field who was raised as a quaker was an exceptionally sensitive man. he -- he's a complicated, sounds very odd to call stalin sensitive but was a man who wanted to write injustices and injustices bounded in the washington of the 30's, racism, antiimmigrant sentiments which were at play in the -- in the execution which was a water-shed moment for this young man and for many people but what makes noel field extraordinary is that he never let go of his faith. i think there are -- it's a type of personality that needs a powerful face. something to lift him out of his own -- out of himself and to explain everything and life and to make sense out of it. i compare it in the preface to isis's power today. the power to capture

and i think of it shortly after pearl harbor with fdr. there was a great controversy about wlot christmas tree should be lit. and fdr said, the christmas tree will not only be lit, but we will move it to the south lawn and despite the security concerns, i will address the crowd. and he had been meeting for hours earlier with a special guest who reintroduced that night. and winston churchill came out and he said to the americans who said let the children have their christmas and let them revel in it and to have a great day and let your hearts be filled watching the children there with christmas and that tomorrow will be a day with our daring and our sacrifice and our struggle that we will do what we have to do to guarantee they're inheritance. and that's what the office of president of the united states is about. part of our inher stance our democratic system. which is guaranteed through elections. and when it's undermined by candidates of the presidency, we have to understand how cancerous that is. >> yeah. >> fascism did not rise and we

who only knew one president, fdr for 12 years. yes. >> a more general question. how do you pick this character or any other? >> thank you for that question and reading my other books as well. this will sound a little grandiose but i like to portray an era through one character. it was the holocaust and the book about my parents, enemy of the people, life under soviet rule with my book about george pulled its about america and engaging for the first time as a world power.

prior to this, fdr had been seeking to get more jewish by filling up the german quota. jewish refugees come into the united states as that as germans. unfortunately, this exceeded the quota, these good folks exceeded the quota, and fdr did not imagine that, as president, he could find a way to bring them into the nation.quota, these god here are some images of these folks. lots of women and children. they had means. they were better off than many. one of my teachers in graduate school managed to get out a few weeks before this from vienna and had to lie about her identity. she was the founder of women's history at the university of wisconsin, an amazing story that she had to lie to authorities to get in. said that she was already married, that she was an unaccompanied woman, never would have gotten in. they would have thought she was a white slaves, and she knew that. she managed to get in. these good folks did not, and the united states turned them away. they sailed back in 1939 as war was breaking out. of the 940 or so, on board well in nazi death camps. and the story

edit and co added the magazine and eventually he founded but he was quite critical of the new deal and fdr and made americans but at the end of his career he wrote a trilogy of memoirs want budget recently to mount an library but his book the life and religious times of h.l. mencken. we're talking with professor hart about his books on evangelicals. >> thank you. >> it is hard for the media in ways that they will find convincing. usage chile this is a reaction to nationalism focusing on the use of reason and at the most happy where it is based on evidence and facts to. a reaction but when we talk what matters most is some id:dash and it is very keep that the authentic and i use the word authentic but i think in the eyes of the of the holder. but people do strow tool to appear to want to feel like him look -- the leverage. this begins 19th century and famously in the '30's the european fascist with germany and italy but in though quake so they focused much more on these stories. i am like you i speak like you but together we can of water off the french that would be. [laughter] but the toda

we don't look at presidency on the policy alone, the person who attracts us, there's fdr, hair -- harry truman, and children and grandchildren will write about and argue about. there's a respect for the country, the office, the constitution our democratic system and where we have failed we have kept notice of that, too, but have loved our democracy for sure, donald trump has made it clear he does not. he relishes the idea of being a dictator, this kind of talk of putting hillary clinton in jail and isn't the talk of the locker room but third world dictators, it shows up in the country's name. there's no democracy, they're run by strong men in the interest of strong men, in other words bullies. al gore accepted defeat, more people in florida he accepted even though we knew he had 600,000 more votes. does anyone listening to donald trump especially the last couple of days would do what al gore did? even richard nixon back in 1960 refuse today challenge the election results because of what the division would do to our country, does anyone think donald trump would do the same? if not why wo

. >> reporter: she watched fdr, a democrat, start social security. she watched farms in iowa, including her own. since then she's voted democrat. >> if we there, it will be a wonderful theng to happen for our country. we just hope and pray that hillary clinton is the right woman. >> reporter: she loves politics but it doesn't define her. >> this is a five general frags picture. she is a mother of three, a great great great grandmother to one. she's been through a lot and she's tough. that's tough, not nasty. calling a woman nasty and on the public telev. >> reporter: soon the nation will elect its 45th president, and if her candidate wins we'll call that president madam president. >>> coming up, serving up political scares. how some are using halloween displays to get their message across. 0 pichlt with the election just around the corner and halloween, many are decorating their homes to give a new meaning. >> reporter: watch out kids. halloween is going to be very scary. while you trick or treat, politicians have their hands out for votes. from mond

who was a democrat, was alive today, he would be gang audited by his own party, but when i think of fdremember the figure, people in internment camps. it makes me laugh when people look at trump and say he's hitler and say fdr's a god of its man. >> amen. dennis miller, everybody. and miller will be back next week. you have been warned. >>> back to "tip of the day," strange doings about killing the rising sun. ♪ like a human fingerprint, no two whale flukes are the same. because your needs are unique, pacific life has been delivering flexible retirement and life insurance solutions for more than 145 years. ask a financial advisor how you can tailor solutions from pacific life to help you reach your financial goals. >>> back to "tip of the day." something weird going on concerning my book, "killing the rising sun," in a moment. but first, one of the best promotions we've ever had on billoreilly.com. in honor of "killing reagan," airing on the national geographic network, we're giving everybody 25% off if you buy "reagan" and "killing the rising sun" together. also, if you become a premiu

this was prior to the implementation of that unit, but because fdr suffered from polio and was at warmings where this young man was, he sent him holiday greetings on white house stationery. >> and also documents from the inventor of the morse code who wrote, if lincoln is re-elected, he will despair. not a fan of mr. lincoln. >> not a fan of mr. lincoln. in fact, lincoln at that time in 1864 was running against general mcclellan, a dishonored officer at the end of the war. morse, in kt fa, writes, he says if mcclellan and pendleton are the successful candidates, i shall have hope for the country. if lincoln is re-elected, i shall despair. >> he was obviously very wrong. lincoln today is considered one of the best presidents of all time. >> we were lucky we didn't have mcclellan. >> also john f. kennedy, there's a manuscript from kennedy on his new frontiers. >> this is interesting, a fragment from a speech he gave, one of 16 whistle stops he made in california in september 1960. and it was notes for the next speech that he was going to give at the shriner auditorium in los angeles. he

. >> fdr. >> to fdr. because there was a convention. >> yes, that's broken down. >> it's totally broken. >> that may be the reality we have to live with for 20 or 30 years. >> it's not going to change. that's why good people aren't stepping up. nobody is perfect. everybody has things in their past they don't want to be on the front page of the "new york times" or whatever. but there is a degree. i do believe the press has a responsibility to bring the truth to the american people. do you feel that's happening now? >> journalism in the sense that you grew up with and i grew up with has totally collapsed. the leader collapsed. the "new york times" one time even if it was left wing with castro and with stalin in the '30s, it was nonetheless a blaise that would have had very serious reporting. the stuff they have been doing recently on trump, some of it is an absurdity. it gets blown up. >> do you want to give me an example of absurdity? >> woman in the middle of a photo shoot thought she was touched by the p

presidential candidate was known as the happy warrior, despite losing to herbert hoover and losing out to fdr. he was a four-term governor who later presided over the construction of the empire state building in just the space of 13 months. traditionally every four years both candidates attend and both speak making fun of themselves and each other in that order. and this is what happened at the al smith dinner tonight. donald trump to start off got some laughs early, then seemed to badly misread the room in the tradition of self-depp pri cari. >> they say when you do this type of meeting that you start out with some sort of self-deprecating joke. the truth is i'm very modest. it's true. many people tell me that modesty is perhaps my best quality. even better than my temperament. we have proven that we can actually be civil to each other. in fact, just before taking the david petrae microphone, hillary accidentally bumped into me and she very civilly said "pardon me." and i very politely replied, "let me talk to you about that after i get into office." michelle obama gives a speech and everyon

fdr had press conferences twice a week. can you imagine that?> we'd love it. >> and teddy roosevelt had a barber's hour everyday where the press could come while he was being shaved then he'd run around talking to them. he took criticism from the press. i think she'll have to have a different -- you need the press in this democracy as much as your enemies. >> but beyond the press, who she is, enthusiasm, you're saying if it was e-mails that forced her to be defensive, if she were to win do you think we would see a different version of hillary clinton? a more likable hillary clinton? >> i think something comes over you if you're president of the united states and if you're the first female ever to be president, that shores up the internal confidence. the thing obama showed in that interview was that he was confident. he said i can do these other things, yet he also realized and yesterday what if i had the legislative acumen of an lbj, the genius of a lincoln, the communication skills of a churchill, then maybe there would have something i could h

that is in part because fdr succeeded him to dinner brilliant job to major all of this is put on hoover said when he becomes president he does not discuss matters with hoover with the policy initiatives even the with the transition roosevelt will have nothing to do with hoover so not only is he active in building the response to the new deal but he has his famous fireside chats with cheap things about very carefully. he doesn't do that willy-nilly. he carefully would marshalled those and how he gave the talks to cross off any five for $10 a words. he even used a special paper so when he would switch pages people would think u.s. speaking off of that but is this some model how to communicate in the time of disaster. also to preside over a large growth of the federal government in the response to to crisis of the great depression but also world war to end and the and with a government that is much bigger. said the changes in the 1950's that what is known as a presidential disaster declaration. so i found it has steadily increased over time of there was a political element. i also have fou
