he told ike, we've got to say this spot appeared. he was doing those kinds of things behind the scenes all the time. but the person once in a while like scott berg told his in the very top of library of america volume on writing world war i for a chance to give voices to others in my life. the book that influenced me as a boy growing up was jack kerouac on the road. when i became part of the establishment, i'd be at the century club in new york with arthur sloss injured junior. he's never going to be in the pantheon of greats. the whole counsel of foreign relations people. it used to annoy me to no end because i knew on the road was a special novel and not just that, but the visions of cody, so i started a campaign to get him in the library of america. we've got now two volumes in the air with whitman and with frederick douglass because i thought he belonged in the american pantheon. and so, i would like to do that with thomas wolfe of north carolina, that they can't go home again, but wolfe is still a very potential ways. >> i wonde

and i am talking about jfk and lbj and of course, ike, president eisenhower. i believe they would have supported him because there was nothing that was done in the administration i anyone that had not been done by all of the presidents in my lifetime. from fdr forward. that was politics. it wastake the recordings. it was accepted as the way you do politics. that was all. it was not a big deal. every president since fdr had a recording device of one thing or another where they recorded the conversations. fdr ended up with a wire machine which is like a tape machine that it was a wire of the recording itself. prior to that, they used plastic or wax. what else was it? 35mm soundtrack type of device. then, for later presidents, it was to developictabelts. and finally to magnetic tape. i am leaving some out as i don't recall but they were all recording devices. i realize there was no former president that would say -- look, we all did that. boy, what a difference that would make. i will tell you one thing that bothers the devil out of me was that the people that we

. >> one of the first things i'd ask is whether they have frns iks on this witt, bets that were, o forbes the tregle they may not already if these are connected by looking at the forensics. if they are connected, then you have the againing of clues. forbes, in the area do you have video from places look banks, stores, restaurants where you can look at facial recognition and drm if someone in this area was also in those other areas. do you have license plate readers in those areas? my guess is tail be connected and may start to start to cloly come together on who may have done this. >> stay with us. we're going to go to politics. the president has accused partisan. and the white house yet given confirms the president is not considering firing the special counsel. >> joaning us, joshua green and fill mudd both here. josh, what's the political play i hear for the president? is this just haven'ting going on or do you think that this is so many point of momentum? >> this seems like new momentum. we have not seen trump until these twitter attacks mention mueller by name. for months and months t

the same curse that is afflicted such otherwise successful presidents as jefferson, wilson fdr and ike. , if the first term had been dominated by hamilton's economic program at home, washington's second term was defined by war overseas and the domestic stresses it generated. we tend to forget how unpopular washington's policies, not washington himself, were in the second term. if you had taken a poll no doubt an overwhelming majority of the american people in gratitude to their ally, war-time ally france would have sided with the french against the war time enemy, great britain. washington alone had the prestige, the moral authority, the clout and yes, the vision. this was a man not often credited with imagination or vision. washington took it upon himself without consulting congress to do something incredibly bold. on his own authority, he issued a neutrality proclamation, declaring the people of the united states and indeed the government of the united states utterly neutral in the ongoing quarrels in europe. such boldness did not endear him to the friends of revolutionary france, am
