franklin. benjamin franklin and the creation of a sending honor. right now, you are probably wondering what on earth is a sending honor? you will wonder a little more. in 1784, r story eight-year-old benjamin franklin has been in paris for nine years on a diplomatic mission. 78-year-old benjamin franklin has been in paris for nine years on a diplomatic mission. a stopping off point to the royal splendor of versailles. benjamin franklin resided in le petit hotel. he was the non-paying guest of friend of king louis. he has been here for all nine years. terrace andd on the overlooking, he could watch as the waters meandered past the isle. but, the end of the war, three months after the piece of paris, a war that ravaged his native country. not begrudge him a moment of her spite to watch the river flow. inside, his mind did not meander as the river did. inside, he wrote to his firstborn daughter, and the words he put down in 1784 fundamentally revolutionized the concept of honor, the concept of ari

franklin. so where does this leave us? if anyone is familiar with engrams, you can search -- anything published from 1500 to 2008. i have done this -- apparently i cannot remember my slides -- quick rule of thumb, the further north you go, honor and virtue are separate. the termsuth you go, are used almost interchangeably. honor isto argue that richer is ethics, as it was understood in the 18th century. when i say ethics, i mean the modern concept of the idea of doing what is right, doing what you believe is proper. "honor,"in the word british and american spelling, the selling changes in the early 19th century, and "virtue." what you notice here, the spikes are right around the revolutionary era. curious why that was. the basicto this, premise of my book is that honor is a cause of the american revolution and helps to shape how the fenders go into -- founders go into war and how they leave it. why don't we think of honor anymore? go to the top flight. -- slide. honor is slowly, slowly dying. b

franklin wasn't there. but he is present at the signing -- for the -- there are other things as well. they're all viewing british behavior as being dishonorable. because the king is dishonorable, he has broken his bounds. therefore, there's no problem with separating. what had initially been about the british parliament and segue to the camp. the tricky part was how do you break an oath to the king and the idea was that the king was no longer honorable. and the john adams quote, the idea it is certainly true that some of our southern brethren have not annecked the same idea to the words liberty, honor and politeness that we have. but i have the pleasure to observe every day that we learn to think and feel alike more and more. so there's a separation between honor and virtue. they start to come together. honor becomes a word that can be used interchangeably for how they need to act. something a secular sort of religion that they learn how to all understand. meanwhile, they pledge their sacred honor. franklin

franklin, let's finish up. >> lieutenant suarez will conduct hearings for both men starting with franklinas recently convicted of crimes including rape and sodomy in fairfax county and now faces rape charges in a neighboring county. he's brought two witnesses who will testify not only about the fight but about his character. >> all right, mr. franklin. you asked for these two as your witnesses for this hearing. is there anything you want to ask them? >> did you see him throw the first punch at me? >> elmore was saying something because he takes monopoly so serious every time. and he shoved franklin twice, then he threw a punch. >> all right. >> i would like to say that i'm particularly the one person that, you know, seems to motivate everybody on the block as far as, you know, reading the bible and doing everything that's right. >> yeah. i will say that he does lead a good example as far as trying to lead people toward the bible. and ever since i met him, he's been a good spoken person. you know, he doesn't curse, none of that stuff, so -- >> yeah. >> okay. thank you bo. you cago bk upsta

the battle of franklin, the horrible what he battle of franklin. that was november 30 1864. there were six generals killed lost 4500 casualties. nashvilleved on to and he built fortifications. he basically kind of laid siege to nashville. later george thomas one of my favorite union army andattacked his over a two-day battle at nashville on december 15 and s6th of 1864 they defeat hood' army and chased them back to alabama and mississippi. so, hood a couple of days after the battle of franklin, i think it was the next day. he said they dispatch -- said they dispatch to general cory gardner and richmond. saying we lost six generals at them andand he named we lament the loss of 4500 men. that he had taken some very heavy casualties of franklin. nashville and he -- isacked at nashville attacked at nashville. on the second day of the retreat he sends a dispatch saying we have just been defeated and we are in full retreat once i safely cross the tennessee river i will get back to you with more details. five or six days later after hood safely crosses the tennessee river he sends

secondly, what was the attraction between franklin and eleanor? obviously, the way he treated her at a later time was not too nice. eric burns: the first question did it elliott ever confront anna. that we know of, he did not. i thought that was an unusual omission, not on the part of the historian, but on the part of anna and elliott. why they didn't. , and in fact address some researchers at the museum in hyde park. one of the reasons we might not know is that not a great deal of attention was paid to either of .hem historically how many people could tell you who anna roosevelt was? she was not a person of significance, although she had an effect on her daughter, one that had to ivanka hard to overcome. elliott, in the roosevelt family, was not an esteemed figure. what was the second question? oh i'm sorry, ok, i remember. first, when eleanor was told that franklin was interested in her, she thought it was a joke. she thought it was a cruel joke that the young debutantes were playing on her, because there was no way that the young, dashing frank

more so than anyone else, surely more so than franklin ever was. the awkward girl, six feet tall in her teens, who was so embarrassed when she was forced to go to dances, grew up to be, in the words of one of her obituary writers, the first lady of the world. the date was december 10, 1948. the subject, the universal declaration of human rights, the place was paris where a meeting of the united nations general assembly was running almost until dawn. eleanor roosevelt concluded her remarks. let this third regular session of the general assembly approved by an overwhelming geordie the declaration of human rights as the standard of conduct for us all. and let us as members of the united nations, conscious of our own shortcomings and imperfections, join our effort in good faith to live up to this high standard. with that, though woman who owed her eminence more than anyone else to an alcoholic, drug addicted, adulterer, returned to her paris hotel room. there, she performed a remarkable ritual of love for her father. one that she performed virtually ev

she could smell the smoke left by franklin's friends who had stayed late. she sniffed off, that was not her husband's fine and she moved to the snuggery, you know that word? every women needs a snuggery, meet with service and that was something she shared with her husband james. she could still feel the presence in the house. autumn was eleanor's favorite season. to the west and below, the hudson river was its own master, along boatmen floated downstream . eleanor's closest friends and her invited guests over the weekend and breakfast was served. from the end of the table franklin smiled and began joking with his sons and his daughter anna looked at her mother and said nothing but something was different, family tensions had eased, marian and anne understood that eleanor was happier, that these three built a weekend cottage for themselves on land that he would lease them on the banks of the val-kill creek in estate called val-kill. the story eliminate what is we can see and understand and at the same time i know that we cannot see everything that happened o

, and benjamin franklin said we can have a republic if you can keep it, if you can keep it. and that's the risk that our current situation means we will not keep it. >> if all of this is destabilizing, what options are there to fix it, mr. minow? >> well, the first thing is to get more people like senator corker to speak up. senator corker has said that many of his own colleagues in the senate of his own party feel the same way he does, but nobody speaks up. either they lack the courage or they're putting their party before their country. but we've got to get people to speak up and to announce that our precious form of government, our democratic system has got to be strengthened and not denied.

. >> franklin: hi, i'm aron.-- i know who you are. >> winfrey: california's pelican bay prison is the most notorious state penitentiary in america. known as a supermax, some prisoners are cut off from nearly all human contact, but what has been accepted prison practice is starting to change across america. >> >> jackson: your mind becomes diseased, and you start to accept the abnormal as normal. >> winfrey: you must know that there are a lot of people who do not care that you're in isolation five years, ten years, 24 years, because you've got it coming. >> alfonsi: bill koch is a billionaire black sheep. after suing his famously conservative brothers, he went on a multi-million dollar spending spree collecting museum-quality art, and a cellar full of the finest wine in the world. >> koch: this is a bottle of chateau lafite rothschild 1870. >> alfonsi: at least that's what the label says. >> koch: we had a materials expert analyze this and say the glue behind this is elmer's glue. >> alfonsi: how much money did yo

it's nice and sunny out here, we're seeing winds along the benjamin franklin parkway when the wind picks up, you can see the flags -- fluttering around. >> i came out this morning to a sad sight. >> reporter: grass on the ground, roots smashed the tahoe was parked outside this man's west philadelphia home on north 56th street. wind and rain ripped through and toppled this utility pole on to his vehicle. he was waiting for a police report to the insurance company. >> damage from the door to the roof and it rolled back here and came off, and smashed the back of the radio. >> reporter: at suburban station this morning, the boards lit up with delays on regional rail lines. septa warned all regional rail commuters to check ahead due to slippery conditions on tracks and the potential for high winds to take down trees. >> a little early, get a heads up if there are any delays. >> the train is 25 minutes late i'm going to believe late to work, i'm together to have to work overtime. >> i didn't have any delays, but i know the trains going out of the city some were delayed 40 to 80 minutes. >> rep

>> franklin: for a murder. >> winfrey: murder. >> franklin: yeah. >> winfrey: it was the murder of aer in san diego. but crimes you commit on the outside don't get you sent to the pelican bay shu. it is reserved for offenses committed once you're in prison. why were you brought here? can you tell me? >> franklin: just a little misunderstanding on the yard. >> winfrey: that "little misunderstanding" was an attack on another inmate with a weapon, and it earned him a year in solitary confinement. franklin is in what's known as a shu "pod;" eight tiny cells, four up and four down, all facing the same blank wall across the way. >> danny murillo: it was created to break me, mentally, physically and spiritually. >> winfrey: danny murillo, troy williams and steve czifra all went to prison as teenagers. they were sent to the pelican bay shu for what happened after they were behind bars. steve spit on a prison guard; troy was part of a riot at another facility, and danny was accused of being in a prison gang. do you remember the first day you pulled up to the shu, taking that long bus ride, ge

as a country, starting with, ben franklin, we were really good of that.actually lost a little bit of talents now. he lived in florence, an incredibly tolerance city. he was very accepted. you had a backlash of that type of thinking. you had the guy that does the bonfire and vanity as a fundamentalist backlash but after a while, they got rid of him and they go back to a tolerant city. >> what happened in this country, what's your read of what's happening in this country that allows creativity to be over taken by ideology. >> right, the problem is we became too wedded to our partisan and ideology believes. so if something comes along, some idea, you know, whatever it may be like a new way of doing taxes or whether or not how we should be dealing with iraq or north korea, suddenly instead of being open minded to ideas, a whole lot of people got knee jerk to what their talking points are in a partisan way. this did not really happen. partly because the whole way we do gerrymandering and politics and the whole way our media is focused unlike your show, most me

i actually think ben franklin said it best, one of my favorite founding fathers, three virtues. if you adopt these virtues you can be eminently successful as a family, as a business and as a nation as a government. those principles are industry, drift and frugality, prudence, prudent behavior. if you work hard and you are productive but you don't waste your money, you are frugal, thrifty, live within your means and prudent with your investments and spending patterns, can't help but be successful as a family and the nation. this is an adam smith, ben franklin classical economics concept but unfortunately we have lost the supply side view of the world and it is more consumer spending, demand and the more consumer spending the more debt you go into, the better off you are. we shifted away from traditional views which i espouse. not to say keynesian economics hasn't provided an important contribution. we have learned how to deal with recessions, but during the recovery, during normal times of economic growth we need to encourage industry, drift and prudence. if you look at the last

so like ben franklin, he loved how things flowed.loved looking at water into a pond and making its world. why does it swirl? its world because something goes from a bigger cavity to a smaller one, and discovers how the heart valve works. people thought it worked because of pressure. he said he is because of the swirl. anyone who can see patterns of nature like that and combine it with curiosity and observation, i loved it. charlie: you begin to look at him -- let's talk about his early childhood and go forward. what we know about his parents? walter isaacson: he was very fortunate. his father was a notary. had he not been born illegitimate, he would have been [indiscernible] we know he would have been a very bad notary. like let perfect be the enemy of the good most of the time. it meant he could not have gone to the university to get a formal education, so he became a disciple of experience. somebody would tell him something like why the sky is blue, and he would do a water vapor thing to test it out. we see the beginnings of the sc

like ben franklin, he loved how things flowed. he loved looking at water flow into a pond and makes a swirl, why does it swirl? he dissects the heart and says it swirls because something goes from a bigger cavity to a smaller one and discovered how the heart valve works. he said, it's not pressure, it's because to have the swirl that spreads it out. so anyone who sees pattish of nature and combine it with curiosity i loved it. >> rose: let's talk about his early childhood. what do we know about his snarnts. >> he was very fortunate to be born out of wedlock. his father was a notary, grandfather, great grandfather. had he not been born illegitimate he would have been had to be a notary. he would have been a very bad notary. he let the perfect be the ep my of the good most of the time. he also meant -- it also meant he couldn't get a formal education from the university so he became a disciple of experience. somebody would tell him why the sky is blue and he would do a water vapor thing to test it out and see. we see the beginnings

but james franklin. he's got no time for those whispers, penn state did look a little sluggish to start. three-0 and steady in the boat. he finds tommy stevens for the touchdown pass, puts the nittany lions up 10. up to this point in the game, barkley was at negative yard itch rushing and as i just said until now, because saquan said see you later. the 13th straight game the longest active streak. penn state wins 31-7. impose. to a perfect six and zero. >>> every week i get text messages and people ask me, what the i'm going to happen with penn state. then it's go time, only the strongly survive. at ohio state at michigan state. all of our big ten questions should be answered aged those games. the temple owls were looking to bounce back after the tough loss to houston. searching for the first conference win. the east carolina pirates are struggling. they get up for home games. i used to live right next to that stadium. good times, that's right. good times were had by the temple owls. logan finds in the c

but franklin was not without influence, in fact, one georgia delegate went so far as to describe franklin as quote, able to make the very heavens obey. franklin himself believes many of the specifics were less important than there be a constitution at all so his approach became to defuse tensions and encourage goodwill across the delegations and this positioned him to shape the great compromise into a plan the delegates could swallow. indeed, in the end, much of the constitution was a result of compromise and thoughtful negotiation. now, we're all familiar with some of the fairly well-known compromises in the constitution, including the three-fifths to shape the southern states, but lesser-kno lesser-known changes of compromise on our nation, the preamble, we the people was originally written to state. we the people of new hampshire, massachusetts, connecticut and so on. and that constitution amendment process would seemingly be required every time we had a new state so we dodged a bullet there, i think. the incompatibility clause that senators were barred from other public office for a y

[applause] prof. mead: thank you for that introduction and the opportunity to speak today. i want to congratulate you and csis for taking history seriously. i think this may be one of the critical gaps in american foreign-policy. the failure of colleges and universities to put value on this knowledge, certainly in conversations i have had with policymakers over the years. it has been clear that their hunger for historical knowledge and background, when facing a serious decision and complex national security situations is immense. let's hope that this center can be part of a movement of reviving one of the most important studies that there is. what i will do today is talk about a

many of them happen here along the ben franklin parkway. for those events like the big concerts or the papal visit, here is what they do. they have plain clothes officers in the crowds scanning, looking for any threats. they have s.w.a.t. officers stationed on higher ground. you'll often see police helicopters scanning rooftops. and blowout gates can be opened at a moment's notice to let the flood of people rush out. with these measures and more in place, some people tell us they still don't feel safe at large gatherings. >> i think nowhere is prepared for that type of situation. that's something we shouldn't have to prepare for, i feel like. it's really scary. i have a son, so it's like what did i bring him into, and he won't be able to do a lot of things that i got do when i was younger. i don't want to bring him out. i don't want to be around a group of people. you never know what could happen. >> reporter: this morning we are calling some of the big hotels located in philadelphia to find out if they're changing any of their security pra
