he supported jfk. jfk, of course, won the nomination, and he went out and actively campaigned for kennedy. he was -- there was no ambivalence in heston about who he supported, who we wanted in office. in 1964, something changed. and he felt -- first of all, everybody who supported jfk was in shellshock after the assassination, and johnson's sudden rise was not what the jfk people had in mind as presidential future. so a lot of them either dropped out of politic for a while and waited for the tide to turn, heston decided that barry goldwater is something he looked and could support, and the reason for it was goldwater's campaign, which essentially was in your heart, you know he is right, somehow that resonated with heston. in fact, he first saw that on a billboard while he was driving through arizona. he looked up and saw that and he thought, yeah, that's right. and of course at the time vietnam was just beginning. johnson's great leap backwards into vietnam. so he voted for goldwater, lost again -- his

brian: how do they treat the substance at the jfk library?nthony: i think they treat the substance less than the nixon library does about the same topic. there is this apocryphal tale that people who watch the debate on television -- the kennedy library exhibit is geared towards that tale. just look at the two, you get a sense of the man and you can judge for yourself. brian: so after, you were in texas, before the g.w. bush library, where did you go on your 2003 tour? anthony: california. i went out to the reagan and nixon libraries, which, going to those two at the same time was one of two things, one of two episodes that changed the course of the book. i was at the reagan library, and there was -- most of the libraries have exhibits on the campaigns, and they will have the standard electoral map. at the time, blue was for republicans and red was for democrats and they had a 1984, little plastic sign. it was small, about this big, electoral map, and the entire map was blue except for minnesota. which wasn't red. you couldn't see minnesota.

the whole thing is ridiculous. >> ted cruz's father had something to do with the assassination of jfk- >> only in the fevered imagination of donald trump who also said he saw thousands of people in arab neighborhoods cheering 9/11. >> that didn't happen in jersey city. >> who came out and all voted for hillary clinton. come on. you cannot take seriously anything that comes out of this president's mouth at all. not only does he inveterately lie, it's worse than that. he's destroyed the concept of truth. >> what about these conspiracy theories. even if this information does come out, is there ever going to be enough to satisfy the imaginations? >> never. this is a whole industry. this is the great american murder mystery. and i guarantee nothing in these documents is going to kill off the industry of the jfk conspiracy theorists, although it may cast in smoo light. but by the way, all these classified documents, supposedly, as a historic i've reviewed thousands of declassified documents. maybe 99% of them are innocuous. they were classified for political purposes. so don't get your hope

it wasn't what the jfk people have implied since presidential future. so, a lot of them dropped out of politics for a while. it was somebody that he liked and could support and the reason for it is goldwater's campaign which essentially was in your heart, you know he's right. somehow that resonated with heston. he looked up and saw that and he thought that's right. and of course at the time, vietnam was just the beginning of johnson's great leap backwards into vietnam. so he voted for goldwater and lost again. something happened to cemented the shift. in 1968, he decided that he wanted to go to vietnam and meet the troops. this was not a popular war. younger people today want to throw out the first baseball and all of that. that's not the way it was in 68. it was a counterculture movement that climax to the ear with the student protests, the anti-johnson assassinations, bobby kennedy, king. so there was a lot of unrest in a lot of that anger was directed not just words mixing and the vietnamese war and johnson, but for the soldiers who were fighting. th

memory. -- linked to jfk's memory. he had been working on immigration from the time he ran for congress in 1946. >> in foreign policy, it seems to me the transformational figure between the two of them is john f. kennedy. even before he becomes president, if you go back and look at the speeches of the campaign and early in his presidency, like seattle 1961, there are seeds, more than arguments about a fundamentally changed superpower relationship. that i think were cut short by the assassination. johnson's problem was that he was not transformational on foreign policy. he was a cold warrior and i think he believed on some level in the dominant theory. -- domino theory. he believed, if we don't fight them in south vietnam, we will be fighting them in the streets of san francisco even though we also know that president johnson had his own doubts. they are both complex in this regard, but on the foreign policy site, since you used the word transmission of, i would -- transformational, i would say it applies more to jfk. >

jfk was born in also 100 years ago this year married september 12th, elected president january 20th and then died november 22nd in dallas at the age of 40. because there are so many books have already been written there is a trio of authors there's so much curiosity about that mr. darr life by talking about that for the next few minutes then we be asking what lessons from that life could apply today during those interesting times i will let you share that vantage point we brought some pictures touche share with this new literature and scholarship in with your road to camelot in no your book is about the rise in how close he came to losing so briefly talk us through those pictures. >> that picture is what they call a boiler room for growth actually it is the sun porch of kennedy's house in hyannis port. and it is surely after the one and after the election. kennedy at that point knows if he will be president-elect but there are still a lot of states in play and this is one of those election nights at kennedy did not go to lou bed until 3:00 for a short nap banded those-- the negative for

drug dog it has to be the happiest drug dogged the country because they make seizures all day long at jfk.

jfk would have liked this. virtually the same plane that got reagan elected and then reagan got enacted in 1986. it's a plan that even liberals they all supported it. walter mondale did not. that got reagan elected in a landslide in 1984. so we ask where is a democrat progrowth tax plan are they sounding like walter mandel. they all used to talk about how tax cuts spur growth. here is jfk and bill clinton. let's listen. it will include across the board top to bottom cut in both personal and income taxes. it will include long needed tax reform that logic and equity demands. every logic that is invested will help create a new job. and in his salary. in these new jobs in the salaries can create other jobs in other salaries. and more customers and more growth. >> i think that is a testament to try to build a different coalition of change. if people have jobs nothing else can happen. the democratic party has changed. super welfare state that the government controls. the democrat policies at the last eight years are

the day he was assassinated, i think the media would have gone after jfk for saying that. david: and david, don't americans want america to be thought of first by the president? >> they do and i don't know about the criticisms or critiques 'cause i only watch fox news so i haven't seen those critiques, but that said. david: and put them up for you, go ahead. >> i think that most americans are for america first and for other countries pursuing that same course of action. the real question is, will it -- and we'll see, time will tell, whether this is to the exclusion of our allies and working together. and i will say this, that a strong partnership comes from strong partners. so, putting america first, germany putting itself first and us working collaboratively and not to the exclusion of others, i think will make for global leadership and a path for the nation. david: that's an optimistic view. sabrina, i have a feeling that all of this talk about isolation is from people that didn't look at the whole speech. while the president said put america first, he was also talking a

my irish grandmother on my mother's side she had a picture of jfk on her wall. i think that's mainly because he was irish and catholic and handsome, but i would put a picture of him on the wall because he was a tax cutter. a lot of people don't know that. he was the last democrat who really believed in cutting taxes and what happened, sadly, he didn't live to see a lot of this. but what happened as a result, the economy soared in the mid to late '60s, as did the stock market. so, jfk proves when we cut taxes, we incentivize people and put money in their pockets and empower them. great things happen and prosperity is lifted for all. particularly the middle class. liz: let's not forget at that reagan was irish and handsome, too. >> the evidence is there in the chart, but i will say this in response to steve, that, of course, you were cutting from a much higher level of taxation than we have today and even as we consider it high taxation at 39% for an individual. people would say, my god, that was 70%. so that's a big difference. but, here is the thing. the package

jfk is the same thing. we can differ on that part. i hear you loud and clear that cutse benefiting from tax and policy a. oakley the rest of the swap catches the memo. virginia thenting then majority leader in 2017 in the gop primary. talking with us and taking your calls and questions. like for democrats, go ahead. is that taxroblem cuts are basically to give money to the 500 richest families in the country. create --eteran to two. to get my things from the v a. what i also want to say is that we are sitting out here all the time whining about food stamps. have a mother who is 75 years of age. she gets $15 per month in food stamps. of hearing tired people talk about handouts and getting this or that. the thing is if you really wanted to help with the health care in a few years we are going to have 10 million veterans die one, worldrld war war two, vietnam and all of that. there is not going to be a space to put people into. the thing is why don't they talk about the poor people? why is it always the middle class. there are more poor

this is what jfk was up against. republicans didn't want him to cut taxes but he did, because it was right thing to do for the economy at the time. ronald reagan cut taxes. interestingly enough, the freedom caucus is for this plan. why do you think so, when they have been so hawkish about the deficit in the past? >> well it seems to me, that the easiest thing in the world for politicians to do should let people keep more of their own monies as opposed to taking it away. so many special interests and benefits entrenched in the tax code, this always turns into a messy beltway fight. the challenge for the press to keep a close eye, hawkeye on the substance of it, not get totally caught up in the politics. trumps and republicans need to do this to put a win on the board. that may be true but there is a lot of money at stake. trish: the problem, they never want taxes to go down for those paying them because they think there is a bias in the media. and they have a lot of appreciation for places like venezuela and cuba. as

>> jfk? >> of course jfk. once again, we see con spirists enscribing the kennedy death with its own meaninging. a form of counterhistory coming into play. whereas oliver stone's counterfactual history says if kennedy had lived, he'd have pulled us out of vietnam. cooper's counterfactual history says that if he'd lived, he would have revealed the truth about the aliens. also about the fact the cia controls the world drug markets to fund the secret alliance with the aliens. and also the fact that eisenhower was actually working for rockefeller who was actually part of the council on foreign relations who was actually working for the illuminati which was actually part of the build a berg group and working in conjunction with european loyalists and, as always, the catholics. anna. >> are there thoughts that aliens are behind jfk's assassination to keep it quiet? >> very much so. if you take cooper's telling, then he may have been alien, he may have been human. but either way, it's the driver of kennedy's car who a

white house cooks for jfk had the strategy. jfk was chronically late.he cook did was made for soufflÉs and he time them at 15 minute intervals just hoping he would arrive on time. those are the perils of making soufflÉ with her president. but daisy was very moved by the president's death. the had a close relationship. if you ever go to our springs to georgia in the kitchen area where she cooked, she wrote on the wall, daisy bonner cook the first and last meal for the president roosevelt. it's encased in plastic. you can see how move she was. she wanted to be considered the first lady of presidential cooking. ship plans of opening a museum dedicated to food and president roosevelt, but she died before she could pull it together. daisy is another interesting character my book. all talked about drinks. there's a cat and mouse game about drinks in the white house. fdr embraced drinking culture. i talked about several colic beverages, wine, cocktails, punches, and none. i'll reach a little bit about eggnog. this is from lillian rogers park, a long time made

jfk, taxes were as high as 91% on the biggest earners in our economy. he cut taxes by 30 points. guess what? gdp, economic growth, same thing with reagan. he cut taxes and you've saw annual average growth of 4%. this can be done with either side. typically, we saw a lot of republicans, they were the fiscal hawks that said you can't spend and so jfk represented more of the freespending, let's cut taxes. all i'm saying is it doesn't matter what party gets it done and i don't care who they identify with, just do it. >> harris: in matters right now because repelling guns will be able to come on democrats and this is about the last point where there'll be able to do something with the majority vote. things start to change, so they entered to win and are they going to pretend to be somebody who we think they should be concerned about? apparently most of them in the senate don't agree. >> lawrence: i will push back on some of the conservatives who say this doesn't go far enough. we have to startomewhe and we're talking about people that are living paycheck to paycheck, that are counting
