in part of the book, the hindu god says, "i am become death, destroyer. of worlds at that time, harry truman had become president of the united states and was at potsdam conference. potsdam was located in occupied germany. joseph stalin, winston churchill and harry s truwan attended the conference. the conference was held to clarify the situation of post war europe and defeated germany. our demand has been, and it remains unconditional surrender. "i want the entire world to know that this direction must and will remain unchanged and unhampered. on the other hand, participants in the conference were waiting for the outcome of the war in pacific ocean and asia, japan." harry truman received a coded telegram at potsdam at 7:30 p.m. on july 16th, operated on this morning diagnosis not yet. complete, but results seemed satisfactory and already exceed expectations. harris truman informs stalin that america had achieved a new and powerful weapon. on july 26th, 1945, the allies issued and announced an ultimatum, which outlined the terms of surrender for the empire of japan. the ultimatum stated that

harry truman was president and was also counted out but he was also known for something else. the story goes truman said if you want a friend in washington, get a dog. guess what? after the last couple of weeks, i know what he means. that is why it is so good to have real friends. i have real friends. so many of you had my back and i think i have had yours as well. i will never forget it. one of my best friends from when i was a lifeguard in the projects. his nickname is mouse. loyal as hell. i am truly honored to be here during this tense moment in the country. just a few days after the assassination attempt on donald trump, he was not seriously injured. we pray for him and his family. it is time for an important conversation in this country. politics has gotten too heated. as i made clear throughout my presidency, we have a responsibility to lower the temperature and condemn violence in any form. you have to remember that in america we are not enemies. we are friends, we are neighbors and fellow americans. i reject not only physical violence but violence of any kind. no excep

harry truman, lbj, both faced opposition in their own party.both made the announcement in march of election year that they were not seeking reelection. we are in late july, less than four weeks from the convention. and you are right, the president is citing -- he doesn't say that in this statement, but it's clear. questions were raised about whether he had the physical, mental, emotional, cognitive ability to carry out another four year term. we have seen nothing like it. i thought back to tom eagleton, who was george mcgovern's running mate. mcgovern was chosen by the democratic delegates in 1972. he picked tom eagleton, senator from missouri, to be his running mate. then all these storiesame out about his emotional health, mental health, shock treatment. he was soon off the ticket. and along came sarge driver. but nothing like this exactly. john: i misspoke when i said harry truman dropped out in 1948, it was 1952. you have been traveling the country for our series america at the crossroads, talking to a lot of people about the divisions in a

truman library. a friend of his from missouri wrote him and said, harry get off this civil rights thing. you're going to lose the election. you're going to lose the south. truman wrote him back and he said to his ernest roberts, ernie, you don't know what i know. and he tells him the story of the blinding of isaac woodard. and he says, i lose this election over, this issue. it will have been for a good cause. and truman's second term, he fully desegregated the military over the very strong resistance of the army brass. and when he left office in early 1952, he 95% of american troops were in desegregated units creating the first multiracial institution in american life. so here's the sort of the irony. here's this story. a blinded veteran that no one remembered who influence maybe the two seminal events of the early civil rights movement, the desegregation of the armed forces, and brown versus board. you tell me how you came this story. how did you do the research where you mentioned in the truman library? yeah. well, first of all, as you remember this when you become a district judge kind

guest: the closest omens were harry truman and lyndon johnson, 52 and 68, incumbent presidents eligible to run for another term who said -- nope, i'm not, i'm not doing this again. the other analogy to both of them is that they were very unpopular. truman, february of 1952, 20 2% approval, which is extremely low . lbj, the war in vietnam was a disaster. so, they were very unpopular nationally but also within their own parties. so, the circumstances today i think are very different. biden has obviously been drawn much deeper into the campaign, into the general election, essentially, but he's also obviously quite unpopular it it is that internal party pressure that at least, in part, i think, drove all three from seeking another term. host: for the other two that you mentioned, was it that unpopularity that was the main driver, or were there other factors? guest: i think that each was unique. truman had been in office for about seven years and was eligible to run, but democrats have control of the white house for 20 years at that point. there was economic, so economic discontent in the co

lyndon johnson, harry truman, both face the painful decision president biden is facing right now. i chose to bow for different when reasons. historian tim naftali, he's going to join me next kaitlan collins, week nights at nine at morgan stanley old school hardware meets bold new thinking at 88-years-old. >> we still see the world with a wonder of new eyes helping you discover untapped possibilities and relentlessly working with you to make them real old-school grid, new world ideas. morgan stanley what relax your book feeling from a backed up god mere lax works naturally with the water in your body to help you go for your gut your mood will follow for eight grams of fiber, try mirror fiber gummies harlem has everything. but i couldn't find pilates anywhere. so i started my own studio and with the right help, i can make think it is place i love even better, earn up to 5% cash back on business essentials, but chasing business cash card from chase for business the de you get your clear choice dental lance changes your struggle with missing teeth forever it changes how you eat, how y

liptak, long time, he lived to be 88-years-old but the rediscovery of harry truman actually happened about 15 years after his death history has looked very kindly on both men for what they were able to accomplish when they were in office. and i would argue that history, to the extent that i can predict but historians will say in the future, but history will look very well on a joe biden has accomplished thus far. in fact, the strongest parts of his interview with george stephanopoulos were when he was talking about what he indeed has achieved at three-and-a-half years. that legacy will never go away the problem for joe biden, frankly, and for the nation. is that one of the key elements of his mandate was that he would save the country from trumpian chaos. and if he makes the wrong decision this summer he could in fact be inviting a return of the trumpian chaos. he was elected to i'm going in which case, his legacy is severely damaged there's something shakespearian to that. >> tim naftali. thanks so much for joining pleasure so after a frenetic week and high-stakes interview, where d

harry truman was president was counted out and none known for something else. es truman said if you want a friend in washington get a dog. well guess what? the last couple of weeks, after the last couple of weeks i know what he means.

rev, harry truman left with 22% approval rating. almost every historian believes him to be a near great for all he did with nato, truman document, containment, starting the cold war, beating back soviet authoritarianism. george h.w. bush, another one-term president who will be seen, if not already, as a near great president because of what he did when the soviet union collapsed, when the wall fell. the way he bound europe together. he will be seen that way. as will joe biden, who will be seen, i think, by most historians as the person who beat back authoritarianism by running in 2000 and did his part by stepping down in 2004. like cincinnatus, leaving power voluntarily and going home. >> no doubt about it. i remember as a teenager, we were marching against the war in vietnam. lbj, lyndon johnson, was the enemy. looking back now at history, lyndon johnson was one of the greatest presidents for the things i believed in and for the country that ever existed. i think that is why i pointed out in my piece that joe biden deserves credit no

as harry truman said, i have never delivered giving anyone hell, i just told the truth and they thoughtas hell. >> what do you think is key for the president and vice president if they're going to make the pivot? look, in the immediate after math of an assassination attempt, your conversation is going to be patriotic, it's going to be about unity. for many people it's going to be about prayers for the people that are affected by this. there's a campaign, and the stakes are high. how do you make the pivot? >> well, i think that there's a couple of things, chris. first and foremost, there were lots of things saying, why is the president pausing campaign events. because he's the president of the united states of america. there's the vice president of the united states of america, there's campaigning and governing. joe biden has said he's going to be a president for everybody whether they voted for him in the last election or not, and so i think it was very important that they set that tone very clearly. this is not about democrats or republicans. because what happened at that rally, it cou

i think that i said that harry truman didn't run for re- election in 1948. of course, he did. he didn't run in 1952. that was option he had to run and didn't run then. so i just needed to get that straightened up. we are all capable of those moments, turns out, at any age. ron, you have been. tell us, when did you start with joe biden? >> in 1986, lawrence. started in 1986, worked on his 19 88 residential campaign and left his staff, came back again in 1989 for three years and rejoined him when he came vice president. >> what has it been like for you, ron, since sunday to hear? knowing that this speech was coming tonight. all of us had a reaction on sunday. a lot of us have talked about our reactions on sunday. when did you know that the president was going to stop campaigning and how did it feel for you? >> look, i think as the president said tonight, i think his record, his leadership on the world stage, his agenda for the next term justified him running for president again and staying in the race. but i think he came to realize that our party was divided on the question and

harry truman said, it was preeminently a of moral leadership. george bush is a defender of right to life and a champion of the judeo-christian values and beliefs upon which america was founded. mr. clinton. mr. clinton, however, has a different agenda at its top, is unrestricted, unrestricted abortion demand. when the irish catholic governor of pennsylvania, robert casey, asked to say a few words on behalf of the 25 million unborn children destroyed since roe v wade, bob casey was told there was no room for him at the podium at bill clinton's convention and no room at the end yet. yet a militant leader of the homosexual rights movement could rise at that same convention and say bill clinton and, al gore represent, the most pro, lesbian and pro-gay ticket in history. and so do. bill clinton says he supports school choice, but only for state run schools. parents who send their children to christian schools or private schools or jewish schools or catholic schools need not apply. like me. can you get two for the price of one? mr. clinton says of his

earlier in the year, president harry truman tried to lobby then illinois governor adlai stevenson toruman asked him to be a successor. he said why don't you run for the democratic nomination. stevenson turned it down. he said no, i'd rather run as reelection of governor of illinois. >> reporter: stephenson gave them a welcome speech that changed everything, whether he wanted it to or not. >> self criticism is the secret weapon of democracy. adlai spoke in 1952 and gave a great speech. what this did is it created a groundswell for stevenson to be nominated in a year he did not want to run, thought he would lose, turned out to be right. >> he gave a glorious speech at which time the democratic party said let's nominate him. and that was the end of the game. >> we will never apologize for our leadership of the great events of this critical century all the way from woodrow wilson to harry truman. >> this announcement came from senator kennedy not very long ago. >> reporter: the most famous example took place in 1960 when jfk shocked everyone and picked his primary rival, lyndon baines jo

harry truman, their successors lost to a republican, what were the key factors in those elections andone of the patterns is that those were two presidents who had very high unfavorables, the same way that joe biden does, harry truman was unpopular because there were some minor corruption in his administration, very unpopular war in korea. lyndon johnson was waging the vietnam. this affected every family. you had two very unpopular presidents who weren't able to help their successors, it might be the case once joe biden is out of the race for a few weeks he might be seen as a more unifying figure than he is now. >> president biden quickly endorsed harris, right, after his announcement yesterday, i wonder about the relationship between a president and a vice president, because it can be complicated, can you talk about that dynamic and what that means moving forward now. >> it's almost always terrible, because you got a president who wants to be center stage, you have a vice president who's trying to sort of stay out of the way and be a sub verb yant almost all vice presidents want to be

i think i said harry truman did not run for reelection in 1948. of course he did.run in 1952. that was when he had the option and did not run then, so i needed to get that straight. we are all capable of those moments, it turns out at any age. ron, tell us, when did you start with joe biden? >> in 1986, lawrence. i worked on his 1988 presidential campaign and then left his staff. came back again in 1989 for three years and rejoined him when he became vice president. >> so what has it been like for you from sunday to here, knowing that this speed was coming tonight? all of us had a reaction on sunday. a lot of us talked about our reactions since sunday. when did you know the president was going to stop campaigning and how did it feel for you? >> look, i think as the president said tonight, his record, his leadership on the world stage and his agenda for the next term justify him running for president again and staying in the race, but i think he came to realize that our party was divided on that question and that the path forward was going to be a path of grinding i

earlier in the year, president harry truman tried to lobby then illinois governor adly stevenson to acceptation. >> truman asks him to be his successor. he wasn't sure he would run again and he said, why don't you run for the democratic nomination? and stevenson said, no, i would rather run for re-election as governor of illinois. >> reporter: in late july, the democrats met in chicago and stevenson gave them a welcome speech that changed everything, whether he wanted it to or not. >> adlai stevenson spoke and gave a great speech. what this did was it created a groundswell for stevenson to be nominated, in a year he did not want to run, he thought he would lose, turned out to be right. >> he gave a glorious speech. at which time the democratic party said let's nominate him and that was the end of the game. >> we will never apologize for our leadership of the great events of this critical century all the way from woodrow wilson to harry truman. >> this announcement came from senator kennedy, not very long ago. >> reporter: the most famous example took place in 1960, when jfk shocked everyon

look, once in 1948 it was harry truman and once in 1968 it was lyndon johnson. of course, their problems were not as personal as biden's. well, after nearly 16 years when the democrats were in the white house, lyndon johnson's main problem was the vietnam war , and the president saw that his defeat was certain and in the primary election process was humiliated and because of this, it was withdrawn . it is embarrassing for marj that in the process of bringing in harisu, they should probably change the chiefs of staff , because, well, now there is probably no trust in the first circle of the chiefs of staff of biden, because people like obama and pelosi say that we did not know that biden was giving so much and it was your responsibility to do this. don't hide it, it means that biden is definitely not the last one to leave. this is the extent of marj's embarrassment , but on the other hand, the fact is that if biden stays, marj's embarrassment would be much worse because biden was not able to silence the pessimists against him even within his own party, which mean

. >> you ever wonder if harry truman had access to data that democrats 1948 looked awful for him?y would have kicked him out and maybe found someone else but the bottom line was he proved to the data wrong. >> again maybe president biden and his team are looking at different data. as you said, there's a path to victory here. it just has gotten pretty narrow whereas i think the trump campaign has multiple paths with the states. 4 months is a long time and it's a maternity in campaigns. if joe biden decides to run and we're going to live thing we can to help them get a second term spee congressman always great having you on. thanks for taking the time.
