in europe in 1894. and it had originally hung on this space in the dining room, and it had passed through three generations of the pabst family until the then current owner decided to donate it back to the mansion. so, this has been a very happy coincidence that we've been able to repeat many types throughout the mansion of items that left the house in 1907 when the house was being closed up and then had returned to us in the modern period, returning back to the original walls. i think it has such a great feeling of authenticity or lends itself to the mansion. the overdoor paintings would have been painted by one of a group of artists here in milwaukee. there was a very active art scene in milwaukee in the 1880s. really kind of incredible when you think about it. but there was a group of what they were called the panorama painters and they would maj the large paintings, and the battle of atlanta is one of the most famous ones and is still surviving and recently restored. but the group of artists led by

you see this in new york, in boston. the clubs and organizations forming that become vehicles for lobbying, for pressure group politics other than electoral policy. that's the characteristic change that is taking place in this period. the shift from highly organized machine politics to pressure group lobbying kind of politics. this make sense? so there's a big change in the way politics work, but there's not as big a change in the fact that immigrants are both civically engaged and still living and surrounding themselves with fellow members of their particular ethnic group. you're in your immigrant family, perhaps you're speaking your old world language. you're in a community populated by many people from your home country, but then your are also engaged in american politics. the notion that you can't do both, be an american citizen and be a member of the ethnic community doesn't make sense to the immigrants in their day to day experience. make sense? questions? let me give you a little bit of an interesting close-up of

in the end the people needed no in pouring. the lines began forming outside schools and government offices where voting was to take place early. where voting was to take place early on the morning of may 27th. the army again was conspicuous by its absence. the voting was overseen by civilians. dermott's conversion to civilian rule happen by magic overnight. people put on their sunday best to perform 's conversion to civilian rule happen by magic overnight. people put on their sunday best to perform this important and extremely rare -- chain in the at the party was symbolized by an icon depicted on the voting slips. a beach ball leaders lake home, an umbrella, reebok of symbols such as a peacock which is now a symbol in the present election were banned but they had cannily chosen to come out from a straw hat to symbolize their party. making it easy to indicate their preference while appearing to wear normal rustic costume. nationwide, twenty million people were eligible to vote. in seven constituencies where the army was fightin

delany would write, in, in 1859, this would actually appear in a serial, in the magazine out of new york. edited by robert hamilton. today you can find this in a book entitled "blake on the huds of america." it is a code book. want to understand how did all the sales, and how to work the various sales throughout this country, you should read this book. but delany, protagonist, henry blake, leading a national insurrection, tells one of his followers all you have to do is to find one good man or woman, i don't care which. so they can prove to be the right person. so you don't care if it's a woman or a man. you want to make sure it is the right person. and when some one like harriett tubman, born on the eastern shore, in the early 1820s. she was the right person. she becomes a champion that leads by example

they didn't do it in elementary schools. they did it in places in sa loons and places like that. this is in the sixth ward. there are a lot of details that clue you in as to the environment that's being created. it is a saloon. you have a dog running around, a kid who is i think begging, asking for money, and you have -- if you look at a lot of art from the magazines of the middle of the 19th century the clothing you see is very much working class style. the guys with the dark top hats on the right are sporting men, men usually involved in gambling and other kinds of vice and so forth. if you want to vote, you can see the doorway all the way in the back. you had to go in there to vote. anyone who wanted to vote had to make their way through the saloon itself to get into the back. if you see the two posters on either side of the door, i don't know how well you can make it out from back there, but on the left is a campaign poster for john clancy and on the right is a campaign poster for john kelly. clancy and kelly, this is an irish environment. this was an irish neighborhood. what

this country in cardenas there involved in the occupy movement both here in new york as well as around the country. may first is the day of working class solidarity so what are the conditions of the working class in today's america doesn't need someone of solidarity in our. of course it does. actually the world is an economic crisis. triggered by developments in the economy here. but the world is suffering an economic crisis europe for example is in a very difficult situation economically here in this country unemployment is officially around eight or nine percent in probably it's double lead on officially you know the estimate of the labor movement is that the number of unemployed count about twenty five million in this country that's unemployed underemployed in part time workers. so the u.s. workers definitely need solidarity from their brothers and sisters from around the world. sam where do i live went to school and then is in the center of the union they taught us about the the class consciousness you know what class consciousness is so tell me that if socialism is still the best

when he was in a small town in indiana in 1843, douglass was very badly injured. he was attacked by a mob of white people. this was pendleton, indiana, a very ordinary little farming town. and he and another abolitionist were there giving a lecture. a white man named william white. he's a white man, and his last name is white. mr. white is white. so we've got a black abolitionist, mr. douglass, and a white abolitionist, mr. white. and they were speaking in front of a church on top of a wooden platform. and there were people in the audience who were there to listen, but douglass said later there were also people in the audience who looked very anally like they were going to do something about their antagonism to the speaker. and after they started the lecture, about 30 white men rushed onto the stage, started to tear down the platform, and beat up frederick douglass and william white. they were both badly beaten up. one of douglass's hands was broken. and douglass said for years afterwards, he said that william white saved his life that day. now, a man who had a bi

but maybe expect in in 2012? we have an election coming up. we saw an upsurge in islamic phobia in 2010 to the midterm elections when the ground your mosque so to speak became a political litmus test. are we going to see something similar this year? well, we have some statements that suggest perhaps. newt gingrich recently said barack obama is pro-islamic. pro-islamic good rick santorum said the president believed in a phony theology. and mitt romney, among others names in line with other republican candidates said that obama is weak, weak on iran, basically appeasing the muslim world. in other words, in 2008, 2010, this court, especially on the internet was that obama is muslim and this time around, i think the republican party is doing is taking a conspiracy and turning it into a policy approach. another is, they're saying, we don't really know whether obama is muslim or not. if they say his creation, i guess i have to believe him, but he asked muslim. another is coming is pro-islam. he is allowing iran to develop a nuclear weapon. he's allo

and in many countries in asia. even in healthy populations, measles will kill on an average of one per thousand children who are infected with measles, and if you don't immunize, every child would eventually get measles. it's even more serious in african populations where one has other illnesses and malnutrition at the same time, and that means children are quite likely to die, even 10% of children who get measles. in the next few years, the world health community will be targeting measles for eradication. it is next in line after polio. we need to approach diseases individually, where we have specially selected diseases that are amenable to a concentrated attack, to bring them to eradication. there's no substitute for that. the cost/benefit of getting rid of a disease is very high, often infinite, depending on how far you want to calculate it out. the issue of disease eradication is a very interesting one. the only example that we currently have is smallpox, where we know that the only reservoir in nature for smal

also in dhaka sun and in . the same region that there have been bomb blasts within the past two months as well that's in march and in april and we also know that in two thousand and eleven in neighboring chechnya. an official not in the fischel excuse me a terrorist believed to be linked to al qaeda was killed in the region as well so this is been an ongoing battle in the northern caucuses in for russia for a long time. all right sean thomas reporting there live from moscow sean many thanks indeed. and it's a norm that when i joined live by dr i will lead for arrest a counterterrorism advisor to the u.s. congress a doctor for as a thank you very much indeed for time so how large a presence do international terrorist groups have in the north caucuses. well what we see right now is that the north caucuses she hired a network of cars basically is why do you say operation first it was traditionally in chechnya and some other parts of the round to moscow and now they're focusing on what we know from the jihadi inter

the key suspect in the 2002 nightclub bombings in bali apologized today in a courtroom in indonesia. umar patek is a leading member of jemaah islamiyah, a network linked to al-qaeda. he told the victims' families he'd been against the bombings from the start. patek allegedly built the bombs that killed more than 200 people at bali. he was arrested last year in pakistan. amid the political upheavals in europe, vladimir putin was sworn in as president of russia today. he has been in power since 2000, first as president and then as prime minister. putin took the oath of office in a brief and lavish ceremony at the kremlin in moscow. he swore to uphold democracy. >> we want to live and we will live in a democratic country where everyone has the freedom and opportunity to apply one's talent, labor and efforts. we want to and we will live in a successful russia that is respected in the world in a reliable, open, honest and predictable partner. i believe in the force of our common goals and ideals. >> holman: but outside, in the streets of moscow, thousands of opposition protesters lined th

's this is still in private hands. it is not in you. i am working on an expedition to be held at the library of virginia in 2014. we are hopeful that we will have that painting by eyre crowe, as well as the other surviving paintings on american slavery both at the exhibition. that will be in print at the library of virginia in 2014. that is a long way off. the other surviving it eyre crowe painting is owned by the chicago's history museum. that collected rather broadly in materials related to the civil war, because of their interest in abraham lincoln and in part because the period after the civil war in chicago, there was an exhibition, there was a u.s. civil war museum that exhibited dozens, hundreds of artifacts collected throughout the american south at the end of the war to tell the story of the civil war, obviously, one of the most important chapters of that story is telling the story of u.s. slavery to first of all, to surviving eyre crowe paintings? >> there are dozens of eyre crowe paintings in britain. but other than this brie

who in his time as president in trying to increase transparency in the russian political system through technology and invoking many introducing i think many systems involving involving the internet amongst other technologies now dead have also vowed to increase life expectancy in russia by twenty eight he wants to see that jump from the current market seventy to seventy five over the next few years and he also said that the economy was incredibly important that he wanted to see business investing more in russia and he wanted to see more investment for the brule in russia now of course one of the key issues for anybody campaigning for office is always education system a debt of saying that he wanted to make education a key part of a to if he was to be elected as prime minister he wants to see russian universities rise in the the international rankings and also you see a military industrial complex become a key part of the way of russian society to modernize and develop the russian military to make sure that it remains one of the the strongest in the world finally ending saying that full

and the debate isn't just in this country. two important votes today, in france, and in greece. at stake, drastic cuts in the face of massive debt. the burning question, does austerity lead to recovery? increasingly voters across europe say no. in the last two years, 13 governments in the european union have either collapsed or been voted out of power. today, french president nicolas sarkozy is caught in a runoff with francois hollande that cast him his job. under sarkozy, france's unemployment climbing to 10%, while economic growth ground to a halt. also today, greece, a national election taking place in a society crushed by debt. greek unemployment now at 21%. up from just 9% before bailouts and austerity brought protesters to the streets. and as no other network can, we brought together cnn's best from around the world. veteran business correspondent john defterios from abu dhabi, he'll break down what you need to know. jim bittermann is live from paris at the headquarters of now defeated french president nicolas sarkozy. he just conceded to socialist francois hollande. matth

there were more suicides in the military in 2000 night and there were people killed in combat zones in iraq and afghanistan. we need to do a better job, but i've been struck by the way the confidant of the marine corps, general turley was syria if it is the chief of staff of the army and trying to break through this and get people to understand if i'm apprehensive and i'm concerned that she don't say in language that i won't use in this company come on. don't psa see or don't be afraid. you've got to go forward. i just have to young guy recently who was supposed to go back to iraq with his unit and may identify with ptsd in a search or print them out. he said he did this just to avoid serving with us this guy spent three times. he was set to go again good you got to get down to the nco ranks to really make a difference that i think it comes from the top. the military really is hierarchical. people try to follow orders, but this is a cultural thing. it's just harder to break through. >> is a couple questions on the all volunteer force. your views on the all volunteer force as history th

in mid february and then also in the past two months march in april there have been blasts in. as well as dug a stand and in two thousand and eleven a terrorist leader with possible links to al qaeda in fact officials saying that it was linked to al qaeda was killed but we know at this point is thirteen people have been killed and more than one hundred twenty people have been injured in this particularly attack and of course we'll keep you updated as more information becomes available. terrorism in the north caucasus has for long been considered a domestic issue but back in twenty ten the u.s. included russia stop terrorist fugitive doc omar of on his own most wanted list dr willett for as a counterterrorism advisor to the u.s. congress explains why of wide of use now being taken first of all and more information is coming both to congress and the administration about the connections between those you hardly networks in chechnya dagestan on the one hand and those present in north africa and in the middle number two because the evidence we're getting from captured individuals in

they've pushed in so prence in kunar provinces. an area that they have a historical relationship with the pashtun and other tribes. we've also seen an indication of al qaeda trying to push some foreign fighters in the east in places like khost co-lee lowe kated with the haqqani network. so i would say al qaeda is looking carefully at the u.s. downsizing withdrawal. >> rose: prepared to do what? >> well, is preparing to establish a sanctuary possibly like they had in the 1990s. >>ose: if mullah omarwasback in pwer would he welcome al qaeda back or would he likely to say we've moved on beyond that? >> well, what the recently declassified bin laden documents those that have been released, are starting to indicate is a relationship between senior al qaeda leaders, including al-zawahiri who's al qaeda number one, and mullah omar, a relationship often through an individual in the senior taliban leadership so we know that they kept up a fairly regular communication. what i appears to the case is that the taliban has some concerns about a

in most cases it remains in check but in some people as adults emerges as shingles. researchers are working on a shingles vaccine given despite the virus in a person's body. the vaccine is designed to prevent further outbreaks within the person who is already infected. so too would this be the case for hiv therapeutic vaccines. the result has been emerging recently. one company has shown therapeutic vaccines used in monkeys were intentionally high infected with the monkey version of hiv was able to achieve a functional secure -- cure in some monkeys. no detectable viral was reported even in the most hard to reach reservoir of the animal. this represents significant progress. another company based in norway has shown the therapeutic vaccines reduce the viral baseline in patients significantly better -- this offer is an insurance policy to all people living with hiv who have no access to -- can afford the treatment. no longer responsible leaders believe can't stop taking a vaccine once it is a new to continue. i want to make two other points. both of these jurors -- cu

austin, texas, came in second. ithaca came in third.-towson area in maryland ranked ninth. unemployment there is about 7%. >>> after months of delays, designers will unveil the latest design changes to the memorial for president dwight d. eisenhower next week. this has been a long process because the eisenhower family has criticized part of the memorial that depict the former two-term president as a boy. they said that it spent too much time focusing on his life outside of being president and being in the military. if the memorial commission votes to approve the changes, the design will go before the national capital planning commission. organizers hope to break ground on the $112 million memorial sometime this year near the national mall. >>> all right. let's take a live look outside now. beautiful, bright sunshine in the nation's capital. 49 degrees, pretty chilly start. making feel like march or something. >> wow. >> the sun has been up for almost an hour. pushing close to an hour now. it doesn't -- doesn't feel like it yet. >> yeah.

and i will i would like to see for all those in this wall in this in this. especially when france's economic quagmire is already a tough one to muddle through unemployment is at a twelve year high of almost ten percent debt is dearie ninety percent of g.d.p. growth has all but ground to a halt and a steady measures are likely to continue both candidates are in favor of euro bonds more intervention from the european central bank and to varying degrees both have put on a confrontational tone towards brussels and germany but there is doubt that there will be much room for maneuver at all. whoever the elected president is sarkozy or he will subject himself very quickly and very visibly to the power of the european union it will always require more succor faces for workers for the obvious interests of the large banking globalists. then they work very small things that are very for equals that ok we've got to vote for immigrants in local elections or ok you know what we're going to lead and what sexual couples adopt children those are important measures but they'r

let's bring in nick walsh. he's in kabul. nick, what are you seeing, what are you hearing on the ground? >> reporter: very little, indeed. about 6:00 this evening there were rumors saying obama was already here and that was flatly denied. and a great uncertainty as to whether he was coming at all and it's fair to say an hour and a half, two hours ago we heard the first helicopters. this city unusually quiet, frankly, suggesting that this visit was under way and confirmation about it, and this comes at an absolutely key time in the entire afghan-u.s. relationship. it's been a disastrous four month, really, anything from u.s. marines and urinating on corpses of insurgents and the burning of korans and the killing of 17 afghans in kandahar to the collapse of peace talks between the taliban in qatar. you can name a long list of disasters, really, and the strategic partnership agreement they're signing tonight is one spot of good news that diplomats and officials here have been very keen to seize upon as a potential channeling for

in. the people of the states and their friends and allies will not live at the mercy of an hour long regime that threatens the peace with weapons of mass murder his regime is an active program to acquire and develop nuclear weapons and let there be no doubt about we know for a fact that there are there. is we're just being carried out at the direction of dr david kay respected scientist and former u.n. inspector was leading the weapons search in iraq we are determined to take this apart we have a tremendous a group of dedicated american men and women involved in this with the best assets of the intelligence. and provide. data cheney is not going to be done with this for quite some time david kay wants more time and he says it could take another six to nine months to make a definitive finding ministration is asking congress for hundreds of millions more six hundred million dollars to fund a continuing search have not yet failed shiny pointy things that i would call a weapon before we can d

in the run-up to the first iraq war in 1991, jack was very much involved in trying to find a solution to prevent the war from happening. jack believed very strongly that both iraq wars were wrong and were needless. um, he believed that there should have been and could have been a diplomatic settlement to the 1991 war, and in the book we spell out how there were efforts afoot, diplomatic efforts afoot by the u.s. to try to find that solution and that at a certain moment everything seemed to change and that was taken off the table, and the administration seemed intent on going to war and forcibly evicting saddam from kuwait. so, again, jack believed very strongly that that war should never have taken place, and certainly he felt that way about 2003. and, um, let me just close my remarks by saying jack o'connell was first and foremost a lawyer. he was a very well educated man, but he was a lawyer. and he believed very strongly that, um, the key to middle east peace for the palestinians lay in the law. and he, his advice to the palestinians was, um, you know, forget about armed conflict.

which is in some ways a very different topic but in other ways not so much, right? i mean, this is again a legislature trying to come to grips and shape big debates. he was looking at trying to contain the president's he ability to wage war an broad, and this was about in the big background was about slavery. >> you've written some on the ability of congress to -- the authority of congress to wage war what is the role now in what is congress's role in declaring war. >> congress formally hant declared war since world war ii. there have been since world war ii all sorts of instances where presidents have just unilaterally sent troops abroad as one class of military action. the other class are cases where congress authorizes the use of military force. but often authorizes it in really broadways. and so this has led a number of scholars to conclude that congress has all together abdicated for making it its constitutional authority to an executive which is unbound. that strikes me as overstating matters quite considerably and ignores a lot of the interesting politics tha

it was 2.10% in february. this is from the bank in italy.tor profits up 2.4% from half a percent in february. this comes as we continue focus, of course, on what's going on in greece. the radical left leader alexis tsipras. carolyn, what's the time line looking like for us here? >> reporter: we don't expect him to set his differences aside with both the leader and the new democracy party. mr. tsipras will be meeting the leaders of both parties later on tonight. that's at 6:00 and 7:00 local time. but, again, we don't expect a fruitful outcome of those discussions. i want to reiterate what mr. tsipras has been saying. he told both parties, i'm not going to form a coalition with you as long as you don't agree to scrap the bailout agreement together. they were both quite rational saying we can't agree to it. that threatens greece's member in the eurozone. again, this warning was repeated by ecb's when he spoke to hundreds. but he said there's no motion for agreement. that's if grease wants to stay in the eurozone. so, ross, i think the internat

in its demands. the other problem you having is very is an opposition russian has been for twenty years and it's a communist party and it's well organized and it's relatively large but as long as it is me major opposition party then people who don't like the communist really have nowhere else to go but to to the party in power and that makes it much more difficult to create take a liberal or i mean party you know one of the liberal opposition ones who thought you know i was going to say i mean. it was leaving office there's a lot of the rules were changed and liberalized needed to use your for parties to register and people to join those party so i mean in the next election cycle going to. go ahead sir. i don't even like that. during the election never complained that it was too difficult to register yabloko wasn't you know you have been skiing couldn't register but as soon as they did the rules were liberalized so more people could register there were complaints so that was going to a deliberate plo
