herndon. >> yeah, yeah. and if you talk to those folks which i have, they have really co-opted the term racism. they will say that racism exists and they'll surely agree, but they'll say that the white people are the aggrieved party, that it is racism that white people experience that is really the problem, the moral issue in the country. and so when they see a tweet like that, you know, i was actually looking -- i saw that tweet and looked over to see what the reaction is, and when folks see a tweet like that, they think the president is on their side, they think the president is speaking their language. and so whether -- even in the rosiest view of president trump's intentions that you still have him as he's done for the last year and a half parroting the language of folks who traffic in hate. when you don't do those clear denunciations and they're ambiguous, it leaves room for this type of interpretation. >> you have, anne, this afternoon a scheduled white civil rights rally, what they're calling it, whit

we're out in herndon, virginia. when i founded the institute 25 years ago, i chose the name because clare boothe luce was an incredible trail-blazing woman. she modeled leadership for women both then and now. she was a pioneer in her time who served in a variety of leadership roles. many of which were first for women and some of them are still quite rare. she was born in 1903. this is a picture of baby clare and her parents separated when she was very young. she was raised by a sometimes financially struggling mother, hardly the background that would have predicted the kind of extraordinary success in life that she achieved. now most teachers say it's impossible to be a great writer without also being a great reader. knowledge builds on knowledge, forges the critical thinking skills that produce insight and understanding. clare was a voracious reader as a child and she was largely self-educated. she received only four years of what we today consider formal schooling, entering a catholic school at the age of 12 gradu

one called the amnesty of john david herndon and the other called sherman's march and vietnam. this overarching theme of reconciliation after a divisive war, i believe is an eternal question and one that we will face, perhaps today in relation to iraq and afghanistan and in the future, forever. i remember the choice my generation was faced with, to be involved or not in the ill- conceived, arguably immoral war, to protest and avoid or to serve. i was personally and deeply involved in trying to decide that in my own personal life and, therefore, very interested in how that extended to other of my contemporaries. this book is not about the vietnam war that was fought but the memory of that war. how it should be remembered -- that first phase had its most intense time with the fight over the vietnam -- a vietnam memorial, as to whether there would be one at all and if there was to be one what should it be. that period is totally forgotten now. the intensity of the fight between 1979 and 1984, but i believe it is instructive to go back to that period and to that fight. i think with

when lincoln was a lawyer before the civil war, he once gave his law partner, billy herndon, advice on how to be a good litigator and the advice was don't aim high. intelligent people are going to be persuaded by good arguments, lincoln said to his law partner, so you got to aim low. you got to speak to ordinary people. if you can persuade them, that's how you are going to win cases. lincoln was able to translate that as president so that he could persuade the american people when there were controversial things going on involving civil liberties or emancipation or any number of other issues, he was able to take these ideas and make them palatable to a vast array of voters. i think the third aspect of lincoln's legal career is he knew what it was like to lose and to overcome obstacles. that also, i think, helped prepare him for the difficulties he would face as president. another was that lincoln had a great reverence for the laws and a sense of justice. as a lawyer, lincoln only wanted to take cases where he knew that his client was in the right. he had a sense of justice, of followin

host: let's hear from james in herndon, virginia. go ahead. caller: hi, yes.ven though i lean more democrat, i have pretty strong views on i.c.e. i think i.c.e. should be in place in our country. host: why so? i think james dropped. that is james from herndon. paris off of twitter -- marie off of twitter says i.c.e. and border patrol our heroes, we should support these brave men and women. daniel potter says democrats did not this ban i.c.e. -- disban i.c.e. before, why would they now? more from the president yesterday about the work of i.c.e. and the larger issue of their role in immigration policy. [video clip] >> sadly, in recent months, incredibly, i have to say. incredibly. a coalition of open borders extremists and to me, that means crime. people that don't mind crime. they mind it when it happens to them. they don't mind it when they have to watch it on television. they waged an unprecedented assault on our law enforcement, our greatest evil, threatening i.c.e. and porter patrol -- our greatest people, threatening i.c.e. and border patrol protecting our

host: susan is in herndon, virginia. good morning. caller: i just have a question i often wondered as to why the word sport is equated with shooting in animal, when the animal itself has no idea they are involved in this so-called sport. do a sport, we are all conscious and mindful that we are all participating. i take umbrage at this word being aligned with shooting and killing. thank you. host: can you help us out with that definition? guest: there are some people who are sort of inherently and totally opposed to hunting as an activity. it what you want. it is an outdoor recreational activity. i think the word sport is appropriate. host: bill is in montana. caller: yes. on whether or not the ability for these anti-organizations to sue and then come back and recoup all of their money that they used in the lawsuit by a federal tax dollars. i understand that is correct. i think that is ludicrous because as an individual when i file a lawsuit i am responsible for my own attorney fees and i'm not able to recoup them from anybody. much le

host: james in herndon, virginia. thank you for waiting. caller: how's it going this morning?t: go ahead. caller: i'm in the i.t. industry. coming into the industry about seven years ago, i noticed that after i'd finished my degree in computer studies, a lot of the people trying to hire from the i.t. industry were looking more for the certifications and things like that. especially in the d.c. area, i noticed that someone with a background, or security and a security networking certification was more qualified than someone with a bachelors degree. said, i wanted to know if these i.t. certifications were also part of the programs you would implement into the high school system? certifications are exactly the example of what we should be talking about when we do more of the education in high schools. some of the best programs that have started to emerge around the country do exactly that, and they say how do we get it so that when you graduate high school you get not only your diploma but an industry recognized credential that will be valuable and help you get a job. there are a
