goldwater insisted upon it.ive minutes to come up with their parody -- "in your guts, you know he's nuts." >> so lyndon johnson and the democratic party painted goldwater as some guy that would be reckless. and i think that was a big part of it. and so the "whose hand do you want on the trigger?" was a commonplace thing in the campaign. >> that set up what johnson wanted to do, which was portray himself as a peacemaker. but the irony of this is sort of like woodrow wilson in 1916 campaigning for peace, and we go to war a few months later. lyndon johnson, the same thing. >> atomic weapons are not simply bigger and more powerful than other weapons. from the american revolution until now, about 526,000 americans have died in battle. they say an atomic bomb can kill more than that in a few minutes. >> r. goodwin: he portrayed himself as a man of the middle, and who was going to carry on the program of the democratic party. >> our great nuclear power must not be placed in the hands of those who might use it impulsive

duncan: i send my first paycheck, $19 and some-odd cents to the berry goldwater campaign. i was 16 years old. i have been involved in almost every major republican campaign in my state and nationally since then. but the republican party i grew up in was the fiscally conservative party. i wish it still was. but we will pass a spending bill today that is everything but fiscally conservative. our national debt is now over $20 trillion. this bill will speed us down the road to $30 trillion. our deficit last year was $660 billion. this bill will make it even higher this year. there is nothing fiscally conservative about this bill. spending was already going up. now we are busting the budget caps and adding another $300 billion more. anyone who supports this bill cannot accurately say they are fiscally conservative. it is very sad to me that the republican party i love is now going along to get along and spending many, many billions that we simply do not have. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back. for what purpose does the gentleman from alabama seek

between a year ago and for the first time in my lifetime there is a new conservative leader, barrie goldwater in 1964, and ronald reagan in 1986. he now owns the conservatives in the republican party. david: a lot of conservatives were worried. is this guy the real conservative? he's in manhattan, he supported democrats in the past and had wishy washy views on things like abortion. but he has been far more conservative than they imagined. ed: right down the line. it was powerful speech. it was a good speech to ended the week of great tragedy and the week of great performance by this president. david: he found a way to address the awful shooting last week. it appeared democrats were trying to own the issue. it seems crass to put it that way. but that's what was happening. we saw them trying to take the issue over. this our issue. the president clearly said there are things that can be done without confiscating people's weapons that could lead to more safety in the school. he address it more than any president has before. ed: he said i may have to go a different place on some of these things. h

i think he would have beaten goldwater but you don't know because they were getting angry over james meredith. it would have been an interesting election but the last dance is one for the agency. >> i think he has dropped he was at stratospheric heights i do think he has dwindled in the professional rankings and popular. twenty or 30 years ago you could.turn on the crown to see him depicted as a bully wife beater and a bad guy as he was in the crown. in the aftermath like the death of mckinley or lincoln many previously considered sins are forgotten but over time particularly mckinley dwindled in the 30s and 40s when professional historians came out and my sense is jack kennedy is similarly suited. >> now he got kennedy performing arts center, kennedy airport, kennedy space center, the memorials and monuments will be here for a long time. i think he remains an important president. >> how many of you can remember where you were when you learned he was shot? now i will predict looking at most of you i don't think all of you will be alive in 30 years so when this generation passes kenne

in the conservative media like a libertarian who wants to describe himself to the right of kerry goldwater which is extreme. to tell an individual what to do if they are not hurting anyone else, he's also a researcher and takes up schoo old government rs including the commission of the team 94 and the panama city now commission of 1925. they do not deserve to be jailed for its use. they were incarcerated for about a year and immediately upon release, he advances the movement but he stayed with it. he calls it marijuana puffing and distributes it to the san francisco bay area and also forms a new organization that is essentially a legalized marijuana that also quickly spreads to the san francisco area and teams up with things like that and becomes very popular. she's also in the san francisco at the time and is quite prominent. he is so moved by it but when he returns to new york for the first chapter with the support he quickly goes national. they also get wrapped up in something else which is the burgeoning youth movement at the time. they backpedaled in a growing number of people saw a f

i'm old enough to remember when you go to cpac and people would talk about their time with barry goldwateryears. cpac got together to beat up on the communist. >> backlash against a government or leaders that they feel threatened by has been the thing that has driven cpac for a long time. a number of years under the obama administration was very active and energetic. a carnival-like atmosphere described it. they run everything. they're happy and they're content and the politics of backlash and fear are often stronger than the politics of hope, optimism and contentment. the biggest takeaway, president trump has moved the conservative movement in the european style populism. we see that with cultural, the focus on cultural nativism and things like that, trade protectionism. you had some speakers talking about the naturalization ceremonies. the crowd booed a panelist who said mexican immigrants have a lot in common with conservatives. we see a palpable shift. >> to your point, stars of the show, if you will, the republican majority leader from the senate not there, the republican house center

remember, what drove richard nixon out of office at long last was when barry goldwater and hugh scottalwarts of the republican party said we can't defend you anymore. we don't see even a breath of that in the current republicans in congress except those who are on their way out. in arizona, in tennessee. you have senators who feel like they can't challenge the republican orthodoxy in their party anymore. and defend law enforcement. you have a completely unified and far more right wing republican party today than did you in the 1970s. >> so you mentioned speaker ryan. his feeling with there is based on public statements he's made. if there was a civil liberties abuse of carter page, that's important for us to know and that's important for the fbi to fix. if a political document was used, as evidence in a counter intelligence and law enforcement manner, i have concerns about that. but paul ryan has been quick to say, this memo does not undermine the fbi, the justice department, and the mueller investigation. that said,le members of his party are using it that way. >> we you to introduce

and back during the saturday night massacre days, you had republican senators, a power like barry goldwaterlling nixon that you lied. you don't see these profiles of courage of the republicans on capitol hill, with the exception of john mccain, who wrote a very powerful comment today. in the 1970s, there was no fox news. there was no breitbart. they didn't have that kind of echo chamber. you simply had network television and "the new york times" and "washington post." but of course things have changed and i don't think donald trump would be able to survive like he is now without the oxygen that's being pumped into him on fox. if you put on fox right now -- i'm not suggesting viewers do -- it is 180 degrees opposite of what's being said on cnn. >> doug brinkley, tim naftali, thanks so much for joining us on this friday night. we wish you both a very good weekend. thanks to all of you for joining us as well. stay with cnn for more on the russia investigation tonight. >> have a great night and a great weekend. took your advice and had geico help with renters insurance- it was really easy. easy

he once describes him as to the right of barry goldwater, which is extreme. he's probably the government should not be able to tell an individual what to do in their private life, since of course they are not hurting anyone else. he's also a researcher and he digs at these old government reports, some of them quite old including the indian hemp drug commission of 1894 and the panama canal zone of 1925. these showed the federal government once believed pop was both less toxic and less have formed them both alcohol and tobacco. i showing the federal government once the this way, white argued modern laws against marijuana are unconstitutional and his client does not deserve to be jailed for its use. his appeal goes nowhere. he is incarcerated for about a year. immediately upon his release he is essentially abandons the movement but white stays with it. he starts to me in the graph and had pelleted the reports he finds and calls that marijuana puff-in in the san francisco bay area and he also formed a new organization called, essentially a contraction legalize ma

when johnson crushed barry goldwater, he carried a laminated card in his pocket of the key polls in eachattlegrounds date -- battleground state. in 1974, jimmy carter was a political unknown, no one on the game show "what's my line" recognized him. two years later he was president. campaigns reward fighters. governing requires, operation -- requires cooperation, compromise and negotiation. obama must attack the republican boehner, paulohn ryan the next. if you want to give us your thoughts this morning, republicans, (202) 748-8001. democrats, (202) 748-8000. independents, (202) 748-8002. if you want to post on twitter, do so @cspanwj. go on facebook. the bismarck tribune has a piece looking at president's day and the issue of presidents. one reason washington and lee can get so much attention might americans perceive their presidents. bush, obama, trump have had diehard detractors. that is one of the greatest things about our democracy, the freedom to be vocal critics without the fear of being president. when we want to honor the presidency, we fall back to the legendary presidents. wash

the doors open and there is senator barry goldwater staring me in the face like this. i have a big afro-sideburns down to hear t-shirt and jeans. this is 1978. without batting an eye he said hello senator.

thing really stood out kid that grew up during the civil rights connection between goldwater and reagan. 3rd, in ofh on august all places, philadelphia, mississippi. a speech on states' rights and atwater eople like lee working for him. talking about welfare queens. think today we know what that led to. and s a southern strategy he it did work. there have been mishopes built reagan, who i felt was a fine president. but the mishope system wrong. we had lebanon, we had aids, we apart from alling drugs. just incarcerate and leave them on their own. into health turned out the streets and it all ends with ran contra, and another caller pointed this out. had it not been for george policies rrecting his economically, we would have had no boom in the '90s. caller.ay, thanks, guest: where do i start? george bush raised taxes because refused to let graham rugman enact automatically. reagan signed into law in 1987, hollins, congress came to the conclusion they were incapable of controlling own, so they heir enacted graham, rugman, hollins, signed into law. if you couldn't control spending, there w

we are products of the intentions of the goldwater-nichols legislation that led to an emphasis on jointness. this is not the first time that we have appeared together. this is not the first time we have worked together. in fact our partnership goes back over a decade. so i just like to say that it is absolutely very much appropriate, fitting that we have the opportunity to talk to you today about the western hemisphere security challenges. i look forward to discussing how our two command work together and to insure there is an absolutely seamless defense of our homeland. over the past year, southcom focused on regional security networks on principled partnerships. partnerships throughout the latin america an caribbean are working with each other and us on range of shared challenges. these challenges manifest themselves in our hemisphere in several concerning ways. criminal and extremist networks threaten regional stability and our national security. we know of specific cases of individuals who were involved in flats to attack our homeland or our partners. fortunately they were stopped but t

the approach adopted was based on the goldwater nichols act that created the unified combatant commands at the department of defense. the mission is to save lives and protect americans from these threats by recruiting the entire weight of the federal medical and public health assets and recruit support of the public health sector to support state and local activities and responses to help americans in distress. i have four key priorities. first, provide strong leadership. focus on coordination, planning and preparing for events that threaten the national health security. second, develop national disaster health care system. third, advocate for cdc sustainment of a robust and reliable public health security capabilities and last, but certainly not least, advance an innovative medical countermeasure enterprise. two areas of progress and opportunity i will elaborate on, are operational health care readiness capacity and the medical countermeasures enterprise. the importance of the national health care readiness and medical surge capacity was highlighted during this hurricane season, after
