incumbent president herbert hoover was routed at the polls by franklin delano roosevelt.great nation will endure as it has endured. first of all let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself. in his inaugural address roosevelt pledged to establish strong banking safeguards. there must be a strict supervision of all banking and credit and investments. there must be an end to speculation with other people's money. one of roosevelt's first presidential acts was to declare a national bank holiday. merritt sherman, who was with the federal reserve then tells us why roosevelt took this action. what roosevelt was trying to do was to create a period in which the whole banking system individual banks could be reviewed by bank examiners, by experts who had a great deal of information about banks and enable them, through the procedure of licensing banks to reopen, to carry out the promise made by the president that any bank that was reopened would be able to stay open. in his fireside chat fdr told the nation that the reopened banks were safe. let m

say that would not gobble up people and whatever so i think i was influenced in terms of franklin delano roosevelt in that regard in this line of political flight running through certain j.f.k. and i dare say lyndon baines johnson you know with the snow whole notion that the government is not not to make people to pin this stuff. never been questioned but it's the great equalizer i teach at cuny and look at this image lecture at the city university of new york i mean in your college we bring into this system people who ordinarily would not have an opportunity if it were not but this public space and they can compete some of them with the sons and daughters from yale and harvard and whatever and that's what this public space is about with this public hospitals public schools and whatever and i think we've been too much in retreat in terms of the finding that we've had so many victories over the years in terms of you know you can discount the big of efforts to win rights for workers for women the regulations that have been there to help people from again you know there i say if it were not for these

united states the role of reagan but they were not they were viewing the united states of franklin delano roosevelt it's the america today that is the america of ronald reagan and other words this policies are now really being felt i find that many american and western economists in general so indoctrinated their sort of embrace. capitalist system so just as blindly as they used to decry the communist system when they look at the successful models both among developed and developing countries usually. models represent some mixture of capitalism with. very generous those of socialist parlous is no where would be one example china is a very different example but they are also mixing the team doesn't mean that pure capitalism doesn't exist on may be simply not realistic in the same way that pure communism wasn't really but i think you're getting at a very important point i mean there is no such thing as just capitalism there are many varieties of capitalism and so the variety that we have now i guess is the most pure form that we've seen although it's one which has still been constructed by the state

the assistant secretary of the navy, franklin delano roosevelt. roosevelt went to the white house many times and met ellen wilson. it was said no one could move in polite society unless they could talk to her. she made the whole issue fashionable. the first week she was in the white house, she went back to the national civic federation of women, the same women that had worked well len wilson. and she began to lobby for an alley bill. she lobbied for a great many different causes. but i firmly believe that ellen set an example to eleanor and ellen set an example for many first ladies who came after her. >> one of the interesting debates about it is wood row wilson seeking out african-americans. >> much as i can tell, i loved ellen as much as the editors did. she was a southern woman. i don't think we could honestly say she believed in equality in african-americans. that's just -- she was a wonderful warm loving person. but i think african-americans occupied her place. this is in a maternalistic way she does want to help there and also to beautify wa

some things are franklin delano roosevelt did, harry truman in korea, his popularity just sinking down into the low 20's americans wanted out of korea. there were times when presidents have made tough decisions because that is the responsibility of commander-in- chief. now they have to pay for it if it is a mistake. i just think that another aspect of this is i don't think the president made a cohesive argument to the american people when he was saying he wanted to do two things. -- wanted to cause but he also he wanted to pause but he alsowanted to congress to authorize an attack. he should have waited until the clause was -- the pauseover or just say that he is going to attack. i don't think americans got a strong message. >> right here. yes. >> thank you, charles, johns hopkins university. senator, i'm sure you have given other talks as well in this one focuses on the resident's failings. i agree with most of them, but i also think that if congress, and notably the republicans in the senate and the house spoke like you did, which they don't and have not, they criticize the president

in a speech at the nine hundred thirty six democratic national convention president franklin delano roosevelt warned the american people about the power of big business executives and wall street financier's he called them economic royalists argued that the future of american democracy depended on their overthrow. the economic royalists complain that we think. the end. of america what rarely playing is we. really don't know america that require the overthrow. the best way to overthrow the power of the economic royalists of course is to unionize the workforce to turn the factory floor office into a small d democracy sounds simple enough right for republicans it made it their top economic priority to bust unions and hand power back to the economic royalists so that it's time to head to the picket line joining me now is neo mccabe welcome back good to be with you tom good to have you tell you to get the green room was like the lincoln brigade reunion this is where the show you and i. so why do you hate democracy bags actually speaking out you know it is democracy going to have as the royalists i

not until franklin delano roosevelt came in. i'm going to give a little history here.s may be indicative of what we can do in congress now. bob dutton was the chairman of the house ways and means committee. you don't get any bigger than he house ways and means and worked with president roosevelt to get some of his projects done. eventually, social security was passed. it took some fine tuning and i think the same will happen here. i don't think so. int: there was a piece what wel journal.com" face in the 1960s with medicare and medicaid. is brownstein space available online. this from our facebook page, patricia meredith points out that the discontent is caused by the failures of the previous decade. alan from orlando, florida. yes, this is the decade of discontent. i agree with the last caller. history has shown that we have had a lot of problems in this country and we have overcome a lot of them. and now we have leadership that i don't think is looking out for our country. we have a divider in chief as president. he is saying with a one percent against the 99 he has

that was before the new deal, before social security, before franklin delano roosevelt. in those days the only social safety net for families was the one the girls -- one of the girls had to stay home. i was the first in my family to go to college. i drove an ice cream truck to work my way through boston college as a commuter. i did the same for law school. and i took out federal student loans like so many millions of american students have to do today. and thanks, thanks to the people of our state, this son of a milkman is now serving the commonwealth of massachusetts in the united states senate. i am a son of malden, but i do not go now to occupy a seat in the senate. i go there to stand for those families, to speak for those families to seek change that lifts up those families and their future. and to everyone, i say to you that will be how i conduct myself here in the united states senate. and so, i come here today to discuss my perspective formed by the commonwealth of massachusetts, guided by its people, practiced in the house of representatives for more than 36 ye

franklin delano roosevelt looked around america and saw that the poorest group of americans turned outto be elderly people, people who could no longer work and had nowhere to turn and sadly, many of them had no choice. they want to live among poor people in a poor house or if they were lucky enough, their kids took them in. if you hear the story of your own family and can remember back then, grandma and grandpa pagano moved in that spare bedroom because he couldn't work anymore and they had nowhere to turn. so franklin roosevelt in 1935 said let's create an insurance program. you pay premiums on this insurance plan while you're working and when you reach the age of 65, we'll pay you at least some money each month to get by. they called this insurance plan social security. it was part of the new deal under franklin roosevelt. pretty sensible but controversial, too. you know what the republican reaction was to social security in 1935? here on the fly of the united states senate there was a republican filibuster to stop roosevelt from implementing social security. they wouldn't let him op

some the things that franklin delano roosevelt did prior to world war ii. harry truman, korea, his popularity just sunk down into the low '20s. americans wanted out of korea. there were times when presidents have made tough decisions, because that's the responsibility of commander-in-chief. they have to pay for it if it's a mistake, but i just think that another aspect of this is, i don't think the president made a good reason argument to the american people when he was saying he wanted to do two things. he wanted to pause, but he also want congress to authorize an attack. i think he should've waited until the pause spirited was over, or just say that he was going to attack. i don't think americans really got a strong message. >> is that charles right here? yes. >> thank you, charles, johns hopkins university. senator, i'm sure you've given other talks as well, and this one focuses on the president spent. i agree with most of them, but also think that if congress, and notably the republicans in the senate and the house, spoke like you did, which they don't,

the franklin delano roosevelt period. here was this wonderful auditorium laid out there, we ere using it 80 years later. 70 years later. and you go, wow, there's an infrastructure investment in education. and so it is by building this infrastructure, we employee people immediately and we then have the found eags for future economic growth. you mention water system, sanitation, electrical energy systems. roads, highways and the like. and it's jobs today. i want to talk about how we can finance -- mr. tonko: and our ports, our rail. mr. garamendi: this is not new economics. george washington in his first month in office, this is the first president, folks, his first month in august, turned to -- in office, turned to alexander hamilton, his treasury secretary and said, develop an economic policy. hamilton came back, not with a report we would have of 7,000 pabling bus 50 or 60 pages and laid out an economic policy, number one on his agenda was to build america's infrastructure. ports, canals, i know you're going to launch in

franklin delano as he began his run for politics? >> thank you for that question. we're going dissect it a little bit. the roosevelts leave the white house and did they believe that the political career is over at that point. >> well, i think the they said that. she thought it was true. t.r. goes on safari in africa. she joins him. they ride cam mels together in egypt and they go revisit sites of their honeymoon in italy and other places. he comes back. taft is in political trouble because the republican party is split between progressives and conservatives and taft hasn't really done a great job of holding the party together. so t.r. gets back to politics in 1912. >> she supported his run as the candidate? >> she did. it was a painful moment. they knew he couldn't win. but this is when the primary system comes in, states voting to have preferential primaries instead of having caucuses to choose candidates. it was hard to predict. he won a lot of the primaries. no one knew what it meant. by the time it went to the convention, taft controlled the delegates and suspended the nomination. >> seven years after the unsucc
