what happened to martha jefferson? >> she and jefferson were married for 10 years.he died in childbirth. she was a little or when she -- he was a widower when he moved into the white house. he needed someone to oversee these parties when both sexes were pleasant. it was thought to be unseemly. he would ask dolley madison. >> he did not entertain very much. >> he entertained in a private way. he did not have large entertainments like washington .r the adams of was the criticism? >> i think there was criticism. because he did not invite the women as often as he did the men. he preferred to have a lot of male company and conduct actual political conversations. he also did away with all kinds of rank and protocol. he wanted everyone to be treated as equal. thought that was what it was all about. >> james madison and thomas jefferson were very close political allies. it is natural when jefferson is elected. i want to say something about jefferson's social program. it is not an accident. he was interested in securing his own political power. he had dinner parties with men

really loved thomas jefferson as a friend and she believed jefferson turned on her husband. rex how did she express herself -- >> how did she express her support of her husband? >> she went there. she was with him all of the time. when he needed her, she was there. >> was there an avenue for her to respond to the press? >> not that i can think of. her avenues to responding to the press was that she was in favor of the sedition laws. she liked the idea of curtailing the press. >> let's take our next phone call from oka raton, florida. >> good program. thank you for taking my call. i am a member of the press. for two colors tonight kind -- to callers tonight kind of insinuated that she was not a good matter. i believe john quincy was a leading abolitionist and here we are following american history. whether it is the kkk doing their thing in the south today, the john birch society, the tea party now which is 97% caucasian, can we at least give abigail -- throw her a bouquet of roses and say that she might have influenced john quincy in terms of the color of a man's skin should

he would pen a letter to thomas jefferson, letting jefferson know he lost his dear friend. he would say to his family, if only i could lie down beside her and die as well. >> can you talk about john adams's life in the years after abigail died? >> john was surrounded by family. he was not isolated. he had always had hostess or andiecer and the nic children and grandchildren came. there was always traffic. there was a lot going on. he could not write his own letters. he had someone write for him. he carried on this incredible correspondence with jefferson. >> culminating as our viewers know, these great bitter enemies finally came to peace and died together on an anniversary of the declaration, july 4. quite an amazing piece of american history. here is a question about whether or not the bloodline is still living. is there an addams family somewhere? >> why don't you respond to that. >> there are several that the massachusetts historical society -- of the adams memorial association. i have more than 100 members here y. we frequently get questions from people thinking and be

jefferson. in the painter's chair he brought to life the founding fathers of american painting and the use of george washington. more recently along with his longtime collaborator, photographer, roger straus, he wrote of the houses of the founding fathers, a book of the same name. he and roger are at it again in a sequel of sorts called houses of the presidents. i so envy hugh howard his research trips. it ask him some time about his visit to bill clinton's boyhood bedroom. hugh howard has turned his attention to the war of 1812 with his new book "mr. and mrs. madison's war," america's first couple in the second war for independence, a history book club selection of the month. most of us have a sort of grade school remembrance of the war of 1812, francis scott key, saving the george washington portrait and that is about it. it was of much more complicated affair. after a time of considerable political division we yankees wanted nothing to do with that war and what a fascinating and diverse cast

what happened to martha jefferson? >> she was not in the white house because she died very early on. she and jefferson were married for 10 years. then she died in childbirth. so he was a widower when he moved into the white house. and he needed someone to oversee these parties when both sexes were prent. -- present. it was thought to be unseemly to entertain in mixed company if you did not have a partner present. so he would sometimes ask dolley madison. >> he did not entertain very much. >> he entertained in a private way. he did not have large entertainments like washington or adams or the madison spirit. >> the capital was getting used to that. >> i think there was criticism not because he was not as sovel -- social, but because he did not invite the women as often as he did the men. he preferred to have a lot of male company and conduct actual political conversations. he also did away with all kinds of rank and protocol. which was very criticized at that time. but he wanted everyone to be treated as equals. he thou

and this is jefferson's idea, not mine. jefferson wanted to get as much land and to people as possible. when should belong to individuals and of course if his ideas to craft the land ordinance of 1785. if the northwest territory were going to get read of the land as fast as we possibly can because the government should be the biggest landowner in america, just as the church was in medieval europe. it should be the people. >> host: what about the question of money supply in the government? >> guest: that's interesting, you know. in 1990, 91, was invited to a meeting in europe, the only time i'd had was to munich and there were a lot of big brained stare. i was on a barge with five nobel prize winners and i wasn't one of them. as milton friedman and buchanan and i forget the other two. i had a debate with milton friedman, mr. free market about for you competitive money and he was arguing the government should control the money supply. iud from american history in the 1830s to 1850s at competitive money will give you a sounder

not jefferson. it is interesting everybody didn't want jefferson to be the first president. more than half to 20 to be president at all. absolutely the declaration is critical but lincoln's greatness was that he tied the declaration to the constitution and said there is a reason that you have all men are created, the constitution is dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal, that yes, we have this body of laws but they have to enforce jefferson's laws. i would not want to minimize jefferson in any way but i'm not sure i would say he more than anyone is responsible for who we are. >> host: ten minutes left with our guest larry schweikart. next month, amy goodman will be our guest. larry in minneapolis, you are on with larry schweikart. >> caller: what branch of the armed services that you serve in and when did you serve, what was your specialty? >> guest: i didn't serve. i was 4 f. they wouldn't take me. >> guest: wide u.s. that question? d you have a followup? he is gone. we are going to move on to mike in lisbon falls, maine. >> caller: in an argument with

i think i have joined in a great period where we are activateing the water area from jefferson street to where we see jack bare from the giants. it's just endless. i can tell i we have long commission meetings but we've all loved the work we are doing. i think we want to thank so many people because certainly without dedication and perseverance we could not have made this happen and if you think about the enormous collaboration. we would like to thank the mayor, the board of supervisor and mr. chew, the former port commissioner david lee that recommended a public finances project. we know there were several attempts. this is the fourth attempt before this happened. we have a lot of communities involved, the advisory group and the commerce advisory committee has provided a lot of input and in terms of other president of other commissioners, and unfortunately commissioner adams couldn't be here today, >> i think this is also, the cruising industry puts over $30 million into the local economy. i think the first thing we are very excite d to be able to go off with a big bang and as the fi

it also stood as an example of jefferson's taste. but his contemporaries believed that the united states should first develop in a practic direction. benjamin franklin claimed, for example, thatthe invention of a machine is of more importance than a masterpiece by raphael." john adams said, "the age of painting and sculpture has not arrived in this country, and i hope it will not arrive soon. i would not give a sixpence for a picture of raphael." nevertheless, admiration for the artist became so great th copies of his works grew in number, especially of the madonna of the chair. merchants and landowners placed these copies in rooms filled with family portraits and memorabilia. unlike jefferson's monticello, the copy after raphael might now be the only art relating to an old master in the room. the attitude toward raphael changed during the 19th century. through prints and the new medium of photography, copies of his sistine madonna and other works proliferated. once mass-produced, they were no longer a mark of taste and distinction b

but jefferson and founders thought precisely the opposite.knew that the state, capital s, was always tempted to take over everything, including the religion side of people's lives so they put a protection in something called a constitution, capital c, that the government could not favor any religion over another and could not prohibit the free exercise of religion. [applause] >> yeah, you're cheering for the founders, not for me. they wanted churches and religions to be protected from the government, frand why? because when people lived out the freedom and practiced deeply held beliefs was at the very heart of this radical and fragile experiment that they had just launched into the world. all right, where the threats to religious freedom today. understand we're not talking about freedom of worship. in a speech about 18 months ago, hillary clinton replaced the phrase freedom of religion-- >> conservatives meeting in maryland, we're live here. we're about to listen to dr. ben carson who was incredibly critical of president obama's obamacare pro

she took madison jefferson into hatred. she hated thomas jefferson.nce he started his newspaper campaign against washington, and the reason he brought washington into it was to defeat hamilton. he said, it is a shame how much the president suffered from the source of attacks but it is necessary. she never forgave him. never. he never realized she was smart enough to see what he was doing. she thought he was horrible. the fact he was elected president was shocking. >> he made the mistake of underestimating martha washington. martha grew closer personally and politically to the atoms -- adams. she was glad it is -- it was tom adams. -- she was glad that it was john adams who won the presidency to succeed him. >> next week, we will delve in for 90 minutes for the life of abigail adams. how many years post presidency did they live at mount vernon? >> he lived two years. she lived 2.5 beyond that. >> what was the time like, their last two years -- their last years together as a couple? >> it was a great time. they were experimenting, dealing with the mill

thomas jefferson did too. people never saw the president, they never heard the president, let alone the first ladies. so the public perception, there really isn't a public perception. it's a good question but it's sitchpli a different time and it's not there. >> the white house was burned by the british and the madisons had to leave. the mon rose were able to move back in. how important symbolically was this for the country? >> huge. the white house had become in effect america's house. one of the reasons why then and

is so there was a famous dinner that was held at monticello, thomas jefferson's house, where thomas jefferson invited james madison and alexander hamilton, and over dinner at monticello they struck the compromise of 1790 which was that the federal government would assume the wartime debts from the revolutionary war in exchange for the capitol being placed right here on the potomac river. so the compromise of 1790 was actually the key deciding factor in creating the district of columbia. they came here to this spot we're standing on now and had a masonic ritual. this is the masons had their aprons and the trowels and corn oil, and they gave some speeches right here on this spot and did the ceremonial laying of the southernmost boundary marker which is what we're standing over now. and that was how the district was created. >> next on booktv, learn about the history of the alexandria police department. or author amy birch uses photos to tell the story of the department and the city of al sand alexandria. >> the name of the book is "the alexandria police association," published by arcadia which

turn against each other she never reconciled with jefferson. they tried after his daughter's death where jefferson did reconcile with john adams and john hancock, there is an exception to that because john never reconciled with her because warren wrote a history of the american revolution that had some bad things to say about john. when they attempted reconciliation, mercy asked john to send him all these mean letters. his original copies of mean letters because she as a historian knew that if there are no documents there are no history. she wanted to ensure that john would never do that so abigail and mercy didn't. since we are talking about mercy i will tell you another important thing, mercy was the occasion of the only time that i found abigail deliberately appeared in print. there had been a guy named lord chesterfield who had written letters to his son on proper decorum and it was, of all supposedly of great writing and also of gentlemanly behavior and he wrote a letter to her own sun saying how horrible chesterfield was, said very bad th

[laughter] that was jefferson. and that just continued and continued, and it made sense back in the, you know, 1700s when we had the whole country to spread out on, and the biggest by-product of transportation was fertilizer. but that's not the case now. so it's a longer discussion. all three of these are a longer discussion. but they're all national crises. we have an international crisis which is only going to get tougher, we have a national health crisis which is bankrupting us, and as sandy proved all too clear a couple weeks ago, global warming is beginning to affect us dramatically, and now we're not talking about stopping it, we're talking about mitigating it, but, obviously, the less we have, the better off we are. and the more we can become an urban society, the more we can do to solvese

jefferson reduces the size of the army. but jefferson does do strange things out of character for him. bursting as he recommends creating a military academy at west point to train professional officers. the other thing giberson does we have carried their for him as he sensed the u.s. navy and marines on their first overseas foreign war. you could call it the first or fear president bush, war on top and since the u.s. navy and marines over to fight the barbary pirates without a declaration of war. he sends them on a joint resolution of congress ended its giberson who declares war on all barbary states, even though only one, that would be tripoli had actually declared war on us by cutting down or flat poll. but algeria had not, morocco had not, the jefferson since the military and is very much the bush doctrine. he says you're either with us or against us and if you're with tripoli, you're us. just take a moment and take a while, but eventually they do. >> the final presentation comes with adam winkler as he discusses gunfigh
