president franklin d. roosevelt sent japanese americans to interment camps. so went from an idealic life to an internment camp. >> reporter: others want to remember so that it won't happen again. thousands of japanese americans were rounded up and hauled away to relocation camps labeled as aliens. in some cases never to see their homes and possessions again though they had committed no crime or there was no evidence they would. tajiwara was only 8 years old then but certain memories are still strong. >> the one thing i remember vividly are the centers in the towers and barb wires. >> reporter: most bay area residents have visited the japanese tea gardens in golden gate park but most have no ideas that a family once lived here. the gardens were built as an attraction for the midwinter fair in 1994. tajiwara's parents and grandparents lived on the ground and were the gardens care givers. in 1942 the tajiwara's were told to pack up and leave. they spent the next two years in an encampment ground. they never moved back in. >> by the time people left there were ga

franklin d. roosevelt family, all of them come together and one eye. they want to stampede the convention. he finally draws back and says no at the last minute. otherwise it could have been eisenhower as the nominee and even as the president beating doing, but he says no. not his year. he does become president a year of columbia university. for years more for the presidency. so chairman, truman it's so bad, so bad at that convention, he gets on the phone and he is calling william of douglas, the supreme court justice. will you be my vice presidents. why him? because he is a guy who is respected by the old new dealers. he has to get back in good graces with that one of the party. he has to cement that tied to the new deal. and william of douglas supposedly says i will not be a number two man to a number two man. he turned some down. so he takes alvin barkley, this democratic leader of the senate, and you haven't ticket which is a pretty good speaker. he's kind of well liked. he is older than harry truman, a

and franklin d. roosevelt who, of course, very friendly to jewish people, not as -- it's very interesting to see what he would have done with the state of israel because he was, he was talking with the arabs just before he dies with the saudis about, well, we'll consult you on everything. i've read that he was part of the board of directors which instituted the numerous classes at harvard which put in a quota system against jews. and who's really his best friend among cabinet members, is morgenthau. so people are contradictory. there's contradictions among every person in this room, and harry truman is just this amazing example of it. anyone else? >> oh. >> is it true that when truman, well, truman didn't run in '52, stephenson ran against ike. that he simply, he and bess simply jumped into their car without secret service protection or anything and drove back to independence, missouri? >> well, there's a new book on that. actually, well, not as new as my book, but it came out maybe a year ago. and, yes, which

churchill has some remarkably anti-semitic statements and franklin d. roosevelt who of course very friendly to the jewish people. it's very interesting to see what he would have done with the state of israel because he was talk in with the arabs just before he dies, with the saudi's i have read that he was part of the board of directors which instituted the numerous classes at harvard which put in a quota system against the jewish and who is really his best friend among cabinet members? it is morgenthau so people are contradictory. there are contradictions among every person in this room and harry truman is just this is an amazing example of it. anyone else? >> is it true that when truman, chairman ran in 52. stephenson ran against ike. he and bess simply jumped in their car without the benefit of any secret service protection and drove back to independence missouri? >> there is a new book on that and, while not as new as my book that it came out maybe a year ago and yes, which indicates that. here is before i was going to do a book on this election, i visited in

eleanor roosevelt was first lady of the united states from 1933 to 1945 after president franklin d. roosevelt died, eleanor stayed active in politics and political affairs. in 1953, eleanor roosevelt was interviewed. among the topics covered, the u.n., foreigners' attitudes towards americans and what it means to be a liberal. >> it's time for the longine's telescope, brought to you every monday, wednesday and friday, brought to you by longenes. and wittenour. >> may i introduce our co-editor, edward p. morgan and bill dobbs, both of the cbs television news guest. with us is one of the most distinguished ladies in america live. mrs. roosevelt. >> i had dinner with man and haze wife in spokane, washington. quite sincerely asked us two questions, do these foreigners hate us as much as they seem to and are they ever going to be grateful for the things that we do for them? now you've just come back from one of your latest trips in the far parts of the world, could you answer those questions? >> i would not say that foreigners hateded us. i would say that many of them were a little suspicious every

franklin d. roosevelt died in the middle of the campaign. the war in europe ended in may in the middle of the campaign. there was something about it that didn't make sense. we took this big island and dropped the bomb two months after the end of the campaign. people were angry that we didn't drop it before. why did 300,000 people die when you had this weapon that could have stopped it. so it is a very strange battle to look at. when i tried to interview survivors or talk about the literature that came out, some great literature came out of it, william manchester, "good-bye darkness," and two things i think are important for us in the present period. if you want to learn how americans are the -- of the west react to people who get in planes and fill them with explosives and try to kill their enemy and themselves in the process, you would do no better than to go back to okinawa, that act of suicide-murdering has a profound effect on the west. when people want to kill so badly, they are willing to kill themselves in the process, it brings a res

awkwardly used to evoke the constitutional and political conflict between president franklin d. roosevelt and the supreme court over the constitutionality of the new deal in 1937. the diction should not distract from two points. first, the legitimacy of judicial review and proper scope of its application was central to the case. white worried about the point in case after case from abortion to the death penalty to campaign financing to the legislative veto, and so on. second, white mentioned without elaborating a concern which some political scientists and lawyers have been expressing for years. when the supreme court tests the tensele strength of its legitimacy in not only threatens principle but it jeopardizes its own political authority. the risk is retaliation from other branches or, worse, defiance, subtle or defiance, subtle or brazen, by the public. byron white once remarked to his lifelong friend here in denver, judges have an exaggerated view of their role in our policy. justice white's conception of his role was almost intuitive. from beginning to end, he saw the appropriate lim

it goes back 80 years to franklin d. roosevelt.ot that i told roosevelt completely accountable for this, but it goes on. republicans and democrats alike for years and years and years. we are not willing to face up to this fact that it is no longer enough to try to rein in the deficit. training in the deficit continues to add to the debt. host: front page of the washington post on what's happening in washington this week, a key visit for china and the united states. and the incoming president is expected to be on capitol hill meeting with members of congress. we will talk about that issue later on this week. then here's the headline in the wall street journal. and in several papers this morning. contraceptive plan still draws heat. the president's ruling on friday, this so-called compromise still drawing heat from the bishops and catholic voters. we will talk about that on a washington journal with kathleen kennedy townsend coming up at 8:30 a.m. eastern. one last question from an independent in washington. fred, go ahead. caller: i

signed by president franklin d. roosevelt. it wasn't signed by president obama. it was signed by president roosevelt and given to our soldiers. mr. speaker, in conclusion, let me just say if the president takes more action to demean the american rights and eliminate our own rights, then it's time for the president to apologize, not to afghanistan, but to the american people. and with that, i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. the chair would entertain a motion to adjourn. mr. gohmert: i move we move to adjourn. the speaker pro tempore: the question is on the motion to adjourn. those in favor say aye. those opposed, no. the motion is adopted. michigan and arizona hold republican presidential primaries on friday. republicans and democratic congressman from michigan about tomorrow's primary, the general election in november and the legislative agenda. republican jeff flake, he will also talk about the presidential election and his campaign for the senate. and about the obama administration plan for school vending

> caller: we need to look to the model of the last person who tried to save capitalism was franklin d. roosevelt, and he took significant actions, reduced mortgages and he was being pushed by a much more activist populace than we tournamently have. although the "occupy" movement sort of represents that sort of change. but i would personally like to see a tax worldwide put on speculation and many other, but we -- if wore going to say capitalism, we need to make grass stiff moves and save peoples' homes. >> guest: i just wish some of these free market fundamentalists would let us save capitalism. some of them are in the way. the fact of the matter is a transaction tax makes sense for a number of reasons and i agree with the caller. i think that excessive churning, a lot of these computer generated trades that really nobody is thinking them through, just computer -- just a certain algorithm that is hit so buy or sell decisions are made in an instant. i think we would get a lot more thoughtful market if there were a transaction tax and then we could but that to good use. let's start by helping peopl

franklin roosevelt did. things like franklin radios velt said in his prayer -- roosevelt said on his prayer on d-day as he prayed on the radio, national radio broadcast, and during that radio broadcast franklin roosevelt prayed for our troops. against those forces of evil. i believe he used the word crusade in there. and yet franklin videos relate was never -- roosevelt was never cruisified for the language he used in the prayer because people knew he cared about our troops. people knew that he cared about americans having freedom. so they never went after franklin roosevelt the way they have come after jerry boiken. jen boiken was invited to -- general boiken was invited to speak at west point this year. he was going to be speaking to cadets at our u.s. military academy, cadets who were christians, about how a christian in the service of the united states reconciles his faith, his commitment to god and his commitment to country. i would imagine most of us who are christians who served in the united states military had those inner questions. some of us found answers in scripture, found answers in wise counsel an

same kind of groups would have said if they had heard the prayer on d-day, live, can you imagine these groups hearing franklin roosevelt's prayer on radio as he prayed for six to 10 minutes publicly prayer that you can find online, almighty god, our sons pride of our nation today, have set off on a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our republic, our religion and our civilization, to set free suffering humanity. . goes on d-day as our troops were trying to retake europe, he also says in his prayer, and oh lord, give us faith, faith in our sons, faith in each other, faith in our united crusade. let not the keenness of our spirit ever be dulled or our events or matters or a fleeting moment let these not deter us. with god's blessing we shall prevail with the unholy forces of our enemy. roosevelt didn't know you couldn't call your enemy that wanted to take over your nation, that wanted to take away your liberty, roosevelt didn't know you could call them unholy forces of our enemy. so he used those terms because he cared about america. he cared about protecting america. we want to live in peace. we want to live in peace

i recall something that was said about another great american, franklin d. roosevelt. he was, in his final procession, the cortege was going down pennsylvania avenue, there was an individual by the side of the road who was weeping literally and a reporter went up to him seined you must have known the president, you're so convulsed. he said no, i didn't know him, never met him. but he knew me. joe garrahy knew the people of rhode island. he was a man of decency and goodness. he believed that every situation had some merit, a silver lining, something he could do to bring forth good out of bad, progress out of adversity. he was a man of deep faith who worked hard, remained optimistic and compassionate in any moment. he was a noble public servant, and that word is used often but no more accurately than with respect to joe garrahy, a man of nobility, a nobility born not of privilege or wealth, but of character and conscience and concern. he had an extraordinary winning personality. he was one of those people you just wanted to bump into because he made you feel better. his
