that was franklin delano roosevelt. he would remember them later on, 25 years later on. when there was another war. so in the fall they went back to yale. all the while, german submarines had been attacking british shipping in and out of the u.s. ports. most infamously the lusitania. but there were many other ships sunk. finally, hoping to strangle the island nation of britain, the u boats began attacking american shipping. suddenly the government, which had spurned the boys' efforts, became very interested in what they had to offer. congress created the navy reserve and the first yale unit as it was called expanded to 28 members, became the first squadron. of course they were expected to supply their own airplanes, their own base, and their own instructors. but with family and j.p. morgan money, that was not a problem. so before leaving for training and war, campus traditions at yale could not simply be ignored. and one of the most important traditions there was a junior prom. the grandest ball of the year. i'll read a little section about the prom. as the long anticipa

next we will look at a typewriter used by president wilson and a desk that was used by franklin delano rooseveltfor his fireside chats. one of the objects we have on exhibit, it's a typewriter that belonged to president woodrow wilson and was used by him when he was personally drafting the 14 points, which was the document at the end of world war i where he was trying to establish principles by which the peace should be noesegotiat so that war wouldn't happen again and that nations would be properly treated. it wasn't a successful fight that he tried to lead to get the united states to -- to agree to the league of nations which was the out growth of his 14 points, but the peace treaty was finally signed after he traveled to paris and helped negotiate the treaty of versailles and this typewriter was simply a tool that he used in the pre computer age to put together his thoughts and create his documents. i'm sure the final version was rp& person but the president would do all of his drafting. it is an interesting object to represent technology and presidential activities without being just another

kens: this is a battle over franklin delano roosevelt's deal with the depression through government actione flaunting of those attempts by the supreme court up until 1937. what happens in 1937, the story of roosevelt in the court. susan: that let's listen to franklin roosevelt in 1937 complaining about the supreme court in a fireside chat. roosevelt: as improperly the court has said itself up as a third house of congress. as one ofgislature the justices has called it will stop reading into the constitution words and applications which are not there and which were never intended to be there. reached therefore, we the point of a nation where we much take action to save the constitution from the court. and the court from itself. susan: and what was that action? to ask the court. he tried to pass a statute where the numbers would be increased and he could appoint justices until the justices retired. a huge majority. he could've gotten a constitutional amendment to the new deal said. but he chose not to do that. did this instead. there were leaving chairs and committees who were not friendly to

basil o'connor was actually a law partner of franklin delano roosevelt. he was the spunky irish immigrant who really saw himself working with fdr, in a very wealthy family. he made a deal with fdr that he would do all the work in the law firm and became a very successful lawyer. this idea of having a place for polio victims, and then this idea, raising polio victims, when fdr died suddenly it all fell to his hands. basil o'connor always swore of pin-striped suit, white carnation, his word was law. he ran the national foundation with tight fists and everything had to go his way. >> that is the national foundation -- >> for infantile paralysis which started the march of dimes as a mechanism to raise money for the polio vaccine. interestingly, a 20 year difference between basil o'connor and jonas salk and they could not have been more difficult. of o'connor was bombastic, knew exactly what he was thinking, he was strong, outspoken, and jonas salk was the shy, retiring, very kind individual. coming back from a pallia meeting early on we have time together on

. >> franklin delano roosevelt said judge me by the enemies i have made.ch enemy are you the most proud of? >> i guess the cole lobby. >> the national rifle association. >> the health insurance companies, the drug companies. >> i would lump wall street and the pharmaceutical industry at the top of my list. >> well, perhaps they can't find evil around the world because they like it at home. the only exception jim webb who identified evil as something not american. >> i'd have to say the enemy soldier that threw the grenade that wounded me but he's not around right now to talk to. >> he joked about killing someone. it's amazing. he's humble, he's reserved, he's brave, he's got no chance. and that wasn't even the most upsetting part in all of this. that came later in what i'm calling -- the oldest clip from the view. >> american people are sick and tired of hearing about your damn e-mails. >> thank you. me, too. >> i thought that bernie was so -- i am aroused by him. >> let's welcome tonight's guest. he can drink under the table then drink the table under the

thing, they used to say about franklin roosevelt, he always played cards, and always sign a check because he knew no one would ever cash it. they want the check. "franklin delano roosevelt, owes me 27 bucks." but this guy knows that you'll -- like, i'm telling you the story! >> seth: yeah, it's great. >> if he had sent a regular christmas card with him and ivanka and the kids and you know. >> seth: you woulnd't have saved that. but, did you save it? >> i didn't -- oh, yeah i got it somewhere. >> seth: yeah, the one that he signed. >> oh, yeah. it's very smart, you know? >> seth: i'm gonna start doing that. i think that's the best power move.

biden, because mum's the word, the democrats have decided that franklin delano roosevelt, one of his cardinal achievements--the 1938 federal minimum wage law--was never to be discussed in this campaign. elizabeth warren is not allowed to discuss it. joe biden is not allowed to discussed it. george miller doesn't discuss it publicly. he put in a bill under our stress just for pro forma. never had a press conference. nancy pelosi doesn't discuss it. richard trumka of the afl doesn't discuss it. and the minimum wage today adjusted for inflation, as i mentioned, would put tens of billions of dollars at ten bucks an hour--tens of billions of dollars in people's hands to jump-start for the recessionary economy. biden could have skewered ryan, and he was muzzled because obama doesn't want to discuss this because he might be accused of being against small business, who he's given 18 tax breaks by his own admission on the first debate. 18 tax breaks, and 2/3 of all low-income workers are employed by 50 large corporations, like wal-mart and mcdonald's, whose ceos get an average of $10 million

and at the outbreak of world war ii, president franklin delano roosevelt tapped him on the shoulder to organize these disparate security spy agencies that were in the u.s. into one unit. and that unit was called the oss, and at the end of world war ii it became the cia. so donovan is considered the father of american intelligence. his portrait hangs first at langley on the wall there. he's also the only american to have the highest four medals that you can receive, the distinguished service cross, the distinguished service medal, medal of honor and the national security award. so in 1959 the st. lawrence seaway opened up. prior to that, since the opening of the erie canal, buffalo's strategic advantage was all the goods that came from the midwest had to be unloaded here: you couldn't get any further east on the great lake, because you couldn't get down niagara falls. once the lawrence canal opened, you had no reason to stop in buffalo. within just a few years after the opening of the st. lawrence seaway, there were no more additions to the grain elevators behind me. in fact, they start

your viewers noticed that what chief justice roberts said sounds exactly the same as what franklin delano roosevelt said. they are articulating the exact same position. many conservatives made that part of their conservative politics. so if fact it was the progressive restraint criticism of lochner that gets imported into modern political conservatives' arguments, it's the liberals, the left on the court, that as early as the 1940s start abandoning all these calls for restraint and they start an activist role. we done a flip here pu now it's conservatives that are unrestricted -- and it's liberals reconstructed jurisprudes. >> we have several cases, muller v. oregon, adkins versus children's hospital of dc, griswold versus connecticut, the right of privacy, roe v. wade, in the last cases there were liberals and they were citing the dissent. >> everything flipped as the court flipped. richard nixon ran on the idea that he's going to appoint judges that are going to follow the constitution, right? it was liberals who were the activists. i think that's the anomaly. i think by and large conservatives h

governor chafee, franklin delano roosevelt said i ask you to judge me by the enemies i have made.hich enemies are you most proud of? >> i guess the coal lobby. i've worked hard for climate change, but in my time in the senate i tried to bring them to the table. i'm proud to be a dodge for the coal lobby. >> senator o'malley? >> the national rifle association. >> secretary clinton? >> in addition to the nra, the health insurance companies, the drug companies, the iranians, probably the republicans. [ cheers and applause ] >> senator sanders? >> as someone who has taken on probably every special interest that there is in washington, i would lump wall street and the pharmaceutical industry at the top of my list of people who do not like me. >> senator webb? >> i would have to say the enemy soldier that threw the grenade that wounded me but he's not around right now to talk to. >> all right. time for closing statements. each of you will have 90 seconds. governor chafee, let's begin with you. >> thank you anderson, cnn and facebook for sponsoring this debate. america has many challenge

theyant eleanor roosevelt, called him associate -- franklin delano roosevelt, they called him a socialist. he saved the country. host: supporting bernie sanders for the presidency. are getting your thoughts on the announcement yesterday by the vice president at the white house with the president standing by his side, that he the white house. clinton supporters -- 8001.rs supporters 748- all others 748-8002. we want to talk about what is today.ng on capitol hill how select committee on benghazi will hear from the former secretary of state and the democratic candidate for the presidency hillary clinton. she will be the for the committee at 10:00 a.m. rachel bade is joining us this morning. bade, tell us what is happening right now. is there a lot of action? people preparing for her testimony later this morning? rachel: yeah, there's people already lining up. a lot of people standing outside the door to come in. they are not going to be letting the public in till 9:30. this is a hearing of the year. people are getting ready. cameras are set up. ready for lawmakers to talk about what they are

it was franklin delano roosevelt along with joseph p kennedy who andin glass-steagall put a firewalletween the commercial and investment thanks. for a collar to say it was bill clinton, a democrat, who would overwrite anything with joe kennedy did is nonsense. since they eliminated glass-steagall, now your investment banks and your commercial banks caused the crash. the reasonnt is that is there is no jobs is because george bush, junior had jobless recovery from the recession. that is all the republican said. the government cannot create one job. that was on the republicans. ,hey knew that george bush senior set up a deal with china under richard nixon that opened up trade relations with china. it was not about trade. this is not about trade. it's about lower wages and markets in foreign markets. glass-steagall cap this country from crashing from the 1930's to 2000. i believe that was the reagan democrats in congress that pushed congress to pass legislation written by the republicans to eliminate glass-steagall, which was written by republicans. clinton did not have the power to over

. >> franklin delano roosevelt once said i ask you to judge me by the enemies i have made.our political careers. which enemy are you most proud of. secretary clinton? >> well, in addition to the nra, the health insurance companies, the drug companies, the iranians, probably the republicans. >> well, so that was her sense of humor. we heard the laughs, from mostly democrats. how did the democrats respond? how did the independents respond? >> the democrats loved it. they gave her an a-minus. the independents overall they were climbing along. they liked it okay. it was sort of partisan so they gave her a "c." republicans obviously said it's too far. the thing that was disappointing here is that a lot of the republicans were liking the message that they heard from hillary. she did a really good job in the debate but unfortunately every time she slammed them during the debate it just didn't do her favors. >> that kind of ruined it i guess. the key moment for me was to see the other opponents say about her e-mail problems that she's having. let's take a look at the question and t

prize, the first of which is traded his class, the privileged life and medical presidency of franklin delano roosevelt and the first american:the life and times of benjamin franklin. with the publication of his biography of ronald reagan which brings us here today he has now completed a six volume history of america as told through biography. maybe the first of its kind. finally, i am almost certain this is the first of its kind, he is in the middle of tweeting a history of the united states in haiku form. [laughter] and as of thursday when i last checked the has gone up to 1948 with this week on truman's executive order to desegregate the military. truman pushed the cause ordering the pentagon to retire jim crow. so my first question for you is whether you are looking forward to or dreading the 1960s and dealing with this in haiku form. >> i'm looking forward to it. i will get there in relatively short order. one thing i discovered when you write histories this way, you can choose how much time you want to spend on any particular we're or topic. sometimes when i write these things i actually lose gro
