jefferson. this plantation street was very larger context. he wanted it to be an experiment as a way to kind of reform slavery. he wanted to do that by in parting trade to enslaved people. rather than then just being unskilled field laborers, they could come up here and learn a skill -- blacksmithing, carpentry, house joining. these are just a few of the many skills that enslaved people learned, and jefferson considered this an improvement over being out in the field picking tobacco or the other crops. if you come here and you know jefferson is the author of the declaration, the iconic line that all men are created equal and you find out he owned 600 slaves, he looks pretty bad, but in jefferson's mind, he was not a hypocrite because he believed he was making changes to the institution of slavery that would pave the way for its abolition. in other words, he is trying to material, alleviate positions, he is changing housing, and he believes this is a gradual process that will inevitably result in emancipation further down the line. we know mor

street. there were indentured servants, slaves, and a lot of these workshops were overseen by jeffersons white family. this is the heart of monticello. this was a 5000 acre plantation. that is a square miles. this plantation is enormous. the center of activity is right here. if you have been here in jefferson's day, you would have seen carriages, heard the noise of chickens and dogs, smelled smoke in the air, heard hammers and saws. there were dozens of people here, free and enslaved, all working for the plantation. from copious record taking, we know jefferson owned 607 human beings in his lifetime. at any given time, 130 two 140 slaves would have been working at monticello. that would have been not just the mountaintop but the surrounding farms as well. this was a dynamic and fluid place where enslaved people were coming and going, living in different areas. jefferson interacted with all of them in different ways. it was not like he was isolated on his mountaintop. he used to take daily rides throughout his plantation. not only to remind slaves that he was their owner, but also so he had a k

we're going to build streets after them, lakes after them. and that's true, more for jefferson of course. there needs to be a memorial to adams on the mall or maybe on the tidal basin over near the jefferson memorial and positioned in such a way that it casts shadows across the jefferson memorial. >> that they're both looking at one another, keeping an eye. >> yeah, that would be great. >> they're both coming to grips with their mortality, but they're shaping their legacy to the end. but there is that sense of profound respect and admiration among the two that they were able to repair this vitally important relationship. maybe the most enigmatic of all the founders, one that i still think is far more monument than man. more myth than flesh and blood is george washington. and your book did a, on washington, did a marvelous job of taking that veil off of him. because you talk a little bit about washington's letters and about washington almost crafting or creating this persona, almost acting the role. he's the least knowable in my opinion of all the founders. >> he's difficult. an

street. blow people's minds, you know? explain what was going on. here is an idea for jefferson davis. a friend of mine who is slightly better at photoshop than i am but not very -- you already have this kind of bar going across. how about put real sculptures representing some of the hundreds of slaves that he owned ? or you come up with your own idea about that. after all, you did do that one, and that was hard to get done. i know there is criticism to be made of it, but it also had some very interesting and positive effects, one of which was on the udc, united daughters of the confederacy. after this statue went up for this monument, the united daughters of the confederacy had on jefferson davis' birthday always put a wreath at this. after this went up, even though it is not anywhere near this -- this is in the way and probably a mile of the avenue. after this went up, they don't do it anymore. they now put the reef at hollywood cemetery, the tombstone of jefferson davis. very interesting. they decreed that monument row is no longer their space, and this is just for this one statue a

now, if you and i go walking down the streets of wilkes-barre today, do you think that we can find george washington, thomas jefferson, james madison, george mason, john marshall and patrick henry? they've got to be there, you know, like with latent leadership potential, but certainly we're not going to find them. so what happened in the late 18th century to generate a generation that is beyond much question the most creative political leadership -- generation of political leaders in american history? well, arnold toinby said that all leadership in all society s is a function of crisis, and that the late 18th century was a great crisis. well, it certainly was that, the revolution, creation of the american nation state. now, the problem with that argument is that we can all think of great crises in american history where great leadership does not show up, like now.

jefferson and ulysses s. grant, none of us engages in economic activity to acquire these pictures. we do it because we want to spend this pieces of money or to invest in them and the same street for the chinese, germans and mexicans and all other foreigners. deficit isa trade neither a symptom of poor domestic economic performance or is it a source of poor economic performance. it is usually quite the opposite. i don't think there is any topic now that is more misunderstood at least across the political spectrum than the topic of so-called trade imbalance. as many of youit i hope no in this room but if you don't know a trade deficit or the better term is current account deficit. a trade deficit is offset by a capital account surplus. deficit,uns a trade that means america is running a capital account surplus. foreigners are investing more in our country. i fail to see how that can be bad for us i felt to see how a trade deficit reflects poor economic performance. i invest, i invest in companies and in sectors that i think have promise. if someone tells me that company ropes, that company has a poor future, i don't rush to invest in it. number 11, a trade deficit is not necess
