it is marking the upcoming 50th anniversary of jfk's assassination. a chance to talk about the man of the legacy. sean, portland oregon. democratic caller. caller: i would like first of all to thank "the atlantic." i worked for jfk in 1960 as a student for kennedy when he was running for president. host: what did you do? caller: oh, he came to our little town and we met him and shook his hand -- and he said, those who can't vote, can you help us by putting papers under windshield wipers, under people's doors, will you hang them on the doorknobs, kennedy for president? it was an incredible, incredible time. i spent the last 50 years, i think, both mourning kennedy and studying him. it was a privilege to meet him. i think he would have gotten as out of vietnam. most of all, i really want to thank "the atlantic." i think people are starting to forget him and i do not want that to happen. i think he was the best. i thank you so much. host: before you go, can i ask you -- you work for him on his campaign. he was elected to office. in the three years that h

i think that includes jfk. anyway, if kennedy was undecided whether to run with johnson, it was doubtful he wanted him to attend a meeting from an election which he was going to be excluded. kennedy stop at lincoln's desk to chat as she was reading the memo from the meeting and said staging a con convention as exciting as 1960 was going to difficult. everybody knew was going happen. he said, i don't know about it. there might be a change in the ticket. all right. about a week later, on the 19th the famous conversation happens between kennedy and lincoln, the controversial one. kennedy's schedule was light. he had just been to tampa and miami. he spent long stretches that morning sitting in the rocking chair in her office speaking slowly. he talked about the reception in miami, the wonderful pictures of him and john that were going to appear in "look" magazine. then he said if i'm re-elected in '64 i'm going spend more time making government service an honorable career. he thought it was crazy in the space age t

did you knee today would have been jfk and jackie o's 60th wedding anniversary?i actually did know that, mario. did you know that jackie's dress was actually made of 50 yards worth of material? >> 50 yards? that is half a football field. she must have been hot that day. >> i'm sure she was. >>> rob lowe is bringing jfk to life for a new tv movie and renee has the new things. >> this is a very dawning rouse and uncertain world. >> rob lowe's first words as jfk. >> i immersed myself in hours and hours and hours and hours of just listening. >> your first look at "killing kennedy," national geographic channel's adaptation of bill o'reilly's best seller. >> jf ask. one of my personal heroes. >> "extra" sneak peeking the final days of camelot, recreating jfk's final speech just hours before his assassination. >> i'm confident, i look to the future -- it is not about getting the accent perfect or the hair or the makeup, it's about inhabiting a real, authentic man. >> lowe inhabiting kennedy, jennifer good win in jackie's pink pill box hat and the first time, we see the

one of the jfk books as dallas 1963. there is another new book out 1941. >> guest: i think it's not necessarinecessarily even so much a year but just looking at a very specific time. sometimes it can even be one day. i believe there's a book coming out that the "washington post" feature writer gene weingartner and it won't be a for a while. this will be looking out one day and one year history and i think it's because looking at something that such a micro level allows for greater extrapolation at the macro level. you can look at the larger swath of history by zeroing in and seeing how a smaller amount of time can inform that larger period. >> host: another stern with a new book out this fall simon winchester. >> guest: yes indeed and again simon winchester, he is excellent at finding periods of time that we think we know something about but actually we don't know nearly as much as we think. this time he is a book coming out on the 15th of october called the man who united the state's, americus explores inventors -- and

national geographic channel's adaptation of bill o'reilly's best-seller. >> jfk is one of my personal heroes. >> reporter: days of camelot, recreating his final speech just hours before his assassination. >> i am confident as i look to the future -- >> it's not about getting the accent perfect or the hair or the makeup. it's about inhabiting a real authentic man. >> reporter: lowe inhasn'ting kennedy, ginnifer goodwin in the pillbox hat and the man who killed kennedy as lee harvey oswald. >> do you believe that oswald acted alone? >> i definitely believe he took shots. >> reporter: if the kennedys watch, what do you think they'll say? >> i don't know, and i don't know that they would watch. if it were my family, i probably wouldn't. none of us can think of what it must be look to every year have to relive something like this. >> reporter: premiering november 10th. >>> now it's time for a little guess-who with our crowd here at universal studios hollywood. and i was kind of surprised by this pick. any idea who the celebrity is? >> tyra banks? >> you figured it out? nobody told you? nic

what i'm interested in is not who shot jfk. i'm interested in the trants for of political power that takes place in the hours after the assassination. i want to move the focus away from the tragedy that is unfolding in the presidential limousine, and move it back about sixty feet to the car carrying lyndon johnson. follow johnson over the course of the day as he goes to parkman hospital and air force one and back to washington, d.c. to give people a sen of the texture of the decisions he to face and the choices he confronted. when you think about it, the kennedy assassination represented the most dramatic and sudden transfer of political power in american history rip. kennedy was the first chief executive to die instandpointly from the wounds. even lincoln, who was shot at point-blank range at the ford theater survived and lived until the following morning when he died. kennedy died instantly. when confronted johnson with what i believe was a unprecedented crisis. i'm interested in the issue of crisis management and presidentia

jfk is on the cover. marking the approved the -- approaching 50th anniversary of jfk's the.n studio, james bennet, editor- in-chief of "the atlantic" is joining us. tell us what this is about and why you decided to put out this commemorative edition. guest: obviously we are approaching the 50th anniversary of the assassination of jenna kennedy -- john f. kennedy. kennedy, unlike so many presidents of the 20th century, remains with us today. his legacy is so contested. over of hama are still all the map. historians do not rate him that high. they put him in the top 20 of presidents but americans overall it -- rate him extremely high. he remains the most popular president of the 20th century, besides franklin roosevelt. "the atlantic" has been around for a long time, 100 and 50 years >> and we covered the kennedy administration and in the years since our writers have struggled down the years consistently with the question of what impact his administration had and what kennedy was like as a man. it felt like an opportunity for us to step back, commission some stories with the i

and just sobbed and put his arms around me. >> there's jfk, caroline and jfk jr. on their way to the funeral. >> jackie couldn't attend, she was so sick. she was in the hospital back in cape cod. and at one point, toward the end of the funeral, jack would not let go of this tiny little coffin containing his son. he held it in his amples and repew -- arms and refused to move. >> deborah: today because of medical advances 95% of babies born prematurely with respiratory distress syndrome do survive. >>> and check out this guy, he freely admits that he has zero recognition and that he has absolutely no qualifications but that's not stopping him from running for mayor. and thanks to his choice of attire he has gotten both lots of attention and now a shot at winning. >> hi sir, jeff wagner running for mayor. >> this guy is running for public office in a big city. >> hey can i get a hug? >> his name is jeff wagner. and he's shaking up the race for mayor of minneapolis with a wacky campaign ad. that's jeff in his underwear emerging from a lake. >> i will not even go to th

i know one of the jfk books is a dallas 1963. there's another new book out 1941. >> i think it's not necessarily even so much the year much as looking at a very specific time point but sometimes it can even be one day. i believe there's a book coming out by the "washington post" feature book writer, it will be out for a little while but is will be looking at one day in one year of history. i think it's because looking at something of such a micro level allows for greater extract relation than the macro level. you can look at a larger swath of history by zeroing in and seen how a smaller amount of time can really inform that larger period. >> and unofficially with a new book out this fall, simon winchester spent yes, indeed. and begin simon winchester, he is excellent at finding case of time that we think we know something about but actually we don't know nearly as much as we think. so this time has a book coming out on the 15th of october called the men in the united states, america's explorers, inventors, eccentrics, mavericks f

. >> president obama, david, should look at jfk as the model. jfk was a defense hawk. he cut marginal tax rates which helped get the economy going. where the president doesn't fete it, where his policies are wrong, is that he views the economy as a zero sum game. which is if one person does well, then somebody else is doing badly. that is not the case. the large amount of government spending. obama huge tax increase. big regulations like obamacare have killed incentive for businesses to invest, which is why if you look at the total number of people employed in the country, as well as those looking for work, we are at the lowest level we have been in 35 years. >> david: well, the most important thing is business invest in is people. to mike's point, sabrina, the unemployment figures just came out on friday. showed that the people suffering the most are ironically the people the president says he is working hardest to help. >> right. i hope that the 69% of women who supported president obama last november are paying attention right now. the fact is that overall unemploym

he has written a book about the assassination of jfk, and he's also done a young adult version from scholastic. and what we have is the sample of the young adult version. >> host: mr. cader, out at buzz books 2013, fall be, winter, what did you -- what are you excited about? >> guest: you know, i keep dipping in and finding things that i like. the nice thing is that we have all kinds of different stuff. we have authors people know and love, elizabeth gilbert, but we have great debut fiction. last year we were one of the first people to the tell people about the yellow birds by kevin powers which went on to be one of best recognized, awarded books of this year. so the best thing is it's got a little bit of everything, some of the nonfiction that we've discovered. one thing that might be fun for television viewers, there was a man who was johnny carson's longtime lawyer, confidant, fixer who was in the shadows for rirlly decades, but he called him his best friend. and yet he has storied and insight into a man everybody knew so well but doesn't know at all. >> host: michael cader, his group is ca

assassination. >> host: when jfk was assassinated what happened with this country in regard to paranoia? >> people were already paranoid there was a fear of the radical right that was building there is a belief that lee harvey oswald that turned out to be a communist but then other people said they would plug into the cold war fear then the theories that would start to come up you could actually get fearful that after all the other things to talk about the urban riots they would pile one on top of another. >> host: what is your day job? >> book editor of "reason" magazine so i am doing for previews and doing other editing and also freelancing for other places. >> host: what are the upcoming book titles? >> we just had our 45th year anniversary issue we asked a number of people eager scholars were the two best books in your field that have come now in the last 45 years we got some good answers and people can go to visa in doubt, -- reason.com it will be on the newsstands. >> host: this is your second book conspiracy theory. jesse walker is the author ian here is the cover. . .

it's a wonderful museum about the 1960s, jfk time, jfk's presidency, you must go!nd another reason to go to dallas is go to the sixth floor and look out the window next to oswald's window. oswald's window is barricaded so souvenirs don't chip away the brick. first thing you notice it looks smaller in person in real life than it does in photographs. and second thing you're going notice is it looks so close. os waltd was trained to shoot in the marine corps. longer target. if you've fired rifles with, as i have and friends of mine, you look out the window and think he could have made that shot. but the school book depository is a great place to go. then you can follow oswald's escape route and the boarding house, you can visit where his wife lived. so if you're interested in the subject of the kennedy assassination, i think it's a must to go to the sixth floor museum in dallas. >> and lyndon in south bend, indiana. you're on c-span2 with historian james swanson. >> caller: hello. 7 very interesting. i was in high school when kennedy was killed. from what you have sai

. >> i don't know why, nick burn, but it is reminiscent of the jfk cuban missile crisis. you recall the cuban missile crisis, we were shown, we the american people, the united nations, were shown clearly pictures of russian missiles or russian setups or russian grounds in cuba. we knew that. one of the things the administration has not done, and i owe a shout out to christopher for noting this, we haven't done that. the united states neither the administration or anybody else has shown the american people i don't understand a shadow of a doubt that these were chemical weapons and that they were only assad's chemical weapons. do we need a could you buban mi crisis moment to persuade people? >> the two are not comparable as you well know. jfk i think made an extremely wise decision to pull back from confrontation with the soviet union and to resolve the question peacefully back in october 1962. this is different. assad cannot threaten the united states. there is no strategic capacity that he has that can hurt us. but we have to make an example of him. >> but there were pict

well i say not so fast jfk. because there was indeed poetry in his first two years in his inaugural address, in his speech during the cuban missile crisis when he said in the case of a nuclear war "that even the fruits of victory would be ashes in our mouths. but, he didn't marry yet the power of the presidency to the poetry of his words. his economic advisor paul samuelson would later say instead of the dashing and decisive president during these years kennedy was in fact quote and extremely hesitant person. now and the introduction to profiles of courage which i believe unlike the rest of the book kennedy wrote himself he praised the eight senators he was about to profile for processing quote the breathtaking talent of the orator compay kennedy, the brilliance of the scholar, well may be kennedy the breadth of the man not yet kennedy and a belief in the integrity and rightness of their cause and call these heroic men people who had quote failed with the wind until the decisive moment when their conscience and

so in 1960, the american middle-class i think it's peaking in both numbers and power, as jfk gets elected. "the new york times" calls this the revolution of the challenges. a revolution that occurred but it wasn't at all kind of revolution that was envisioned by people like marks in the 19th century. you have both working class and upper class look at the middle-class. you did not want to look rich and you didn't want to look for. .. because you have both the colors and white collars that are both middle-class at the same time, living next to each other, working next to each other. different terms come about tuning this group. some people call them light blue. some people call them blue-collar aristocrats. a lot of the night on their home, but make repair themselves rather than calling handymen. but they like their company if they are a factory worker, but strake appointed. the average, can't afford every day but somebody who owned a home before. they have to do it themselves and though protect the company at all cost. see different kind of middle-class. so just as it seeks in the early 6
