and i'll tell you why jimmy roosevelt comes into the picture. yeah he at the time a southern revolt and he had the far left of the democratic party was against. the there was a third party candidacy by wallace and there was a stop a dump they it a dump truman movement orchestrated by roosevelt sons. so when the the yeah so with when the trend train reached los angeles jimmy he lived out there he came in to truman's hotel suite. jimmy roosevelt was an alpha male, 60 for big shoulders. he tried to intimidate truman. there was a secret service man in the room who testified this. truman stuck his finger in roosevelt's chest and said, you said your father asked me to take this job and i'm i'm doing it. he would roll over in his grave if you knew what you were doing to me. and then he just said, that will be all you know. good day. good day. marched him to the door. so. all right, the the the famous whistle stop campaign began on september 17th, 1948, on the ferdinand magellan, again across the midwest to the far west california, and back and about th

jimmy roosevelt was an alpha male, 6'4", big shoulders, he tried to intimidate truman. there was a secret serviceman in the room who testified to this. truman stuck his finger in roosevelt's chest and said, he said, your father asked me to take this job and i'm doing it. he would roll over in his grave if he knew what you were doing to me. and then he just said, that will be all. [laughter] good day. good day. and marched him to the door. so. all right. the famous whistle stop campaign began on september 17, 1948. on the ferdinand magelun, again, across the midwest to the far west, california and back. in middle october, bes andujary invited -- bess andujary invited -- and harry invited india edwards who was on the train to join them for breakfast. and harry said during that conversation to india, he said, india, you know, there are only two people who believe i can win this election. and two of them are sitting here. [laughter] and one of them is not my wife. which is true. she didn't think he could win. but truman knew, india edwards got off at every whistle stop and w

governor, uh, franklin roosevelt was going to remove mayor jimmy walker in 1932. but mayor walker resigned and moved to a neighboring village, a place called london, england. and so, you know, that's, uh, i think real demonstration of leadership by governor hochul to actually do that. >> all right. there are a few people that are running, including michael blake, for the new york city mayorship, um, the former new york governor, andrew cuomo, is reportedly considering joining the race. he posted this video on x for valentine's day, embracing voters. and a democratic group has already endorsed cuomo. should cuomo jump in the race, considering he resigned over allegations of sexual misconduct? >> well, if here again, if governor cuomo wants to jump into the race and that's what he truly wants to do. uh, you know, i don't see any reason to actually stop him. he has held elected office for 14.5 years. um, some of it as attorney general and most of it as governor. he, uh, was in office during the pandemic and did a terrific job. i mean, he was must see tv every day. i

jimmy carter's grandson. >> and mary jean eisenhower. i'm dwight eisenhower's youngest grandchild. >> massey mckinley, william mckinley's great great nephew and grover cleveland's great great grandson. >> i'm tweed roosevelt, theodore roosevelt's great grandson. >> and ulysses grant dietz. i'm the. youngest great great grandchild. >> of ulysses. >> and julia grant. >> if you didn't tell me, i'd have no clue. they belong to a club that you literally have to be born into. the society of presidential descendants. and every year on presidents day, this fraternity links up in key west, florida, at a historic spot called the little white house for a reunion of first families. so much of america's history is part of their family history. >> susan ford, i think, was said, i wasn't sure, but that the job was sort of twofold, one to, you know, keep up with the legacy, your ancestors legacy, to preserve that, promote it and defend it. but the second part of the job is to do something with it on your own, make it your own in some way. >> part of the preservation is sharing stories with eager audiences. at harry truman's second home, the little white house is a museum now, but clifton used to come here with his grandp

jimmy and meyer and luciano felt burned after going to the 1932 presidential convention, where they supported roosevelt on the condition that roosevelt agreed to pull back on going after the mob while roosevelt got their support through tammany hall, the political machine, and proceeded to go after the mafia anyway. and if you'll forgive my language, lucky luciano was asked late in life how he felt about what what roosevelt did and luciano said he is a no good -- -- double crosser. of course it was the right move and i would have done the same thing, but they felt very burned by politics. and so you just because you can't assume that the mafia is one central corporation. they're different people who have different agendas. i believe that joe kennedy sought that help. jimmy aiello. sent him to frank sinatra, who went to sam giancana. i do believe that the chicago outfit helped. what i am skeptical about is the idea that the mafia turned the 1960 election. i think that i think help was sought. i think help was received. but i think it's a little bit purple to start to say the mob won the 1960 election fo

jimmy: yeah, yeah, a lot of forks in this game. and ukraine is royally forked in this game, unfortunately. [ laughter ] you know, there's a famous quote from teddy roosevelthe said a president should "speak softly and carry a big stick." trump's walking around with a bullhorn and a putter. [ laughter ] we are one weird press conference away from trump saying he wants to move ukraine to gaza. [ laughter ] putin also invited trump to visit him in moscow, and trump invited his friend, the murderer, to come here to the united states. isn't that -- putin's going to squeeze trump's balls like a schnauzer at the westminster dog show. [ laughter ] as if we don't have enough to worry about here. like measles. the measles are on the rise. measles and wide-leg jeans are back. [ laughter ] but don't worry, we have a new health czar. bobby brainworm is on the job. [ laughter ] rfk jr. was confirmed today as our new secretary of health and human service busy a vote of 52-48. mitch mcconnell was the only republican to vote no. mitch mcconnell is 82. he survived polio as a kid, and thanks to rfk jr, polio might get another run at him. [ laughter ] the red hulk was at the

jimmy carter passed away. i am interested in hearing about her particular parallels there and fact that everybody has talked about roosevelthe way he got us out of the depression. the interesting thing is the things that got us out of the depression after his initial work were things that hoover tried but was not able to do while he was president. i will quit babbling at this point and let her talk. guest: that was a good question. i do not think you were babbling. i went to go see carter speak in plains, georgia i think around 2015, 2016. it was incredible to see him give a sermon and to grapple with his grandson who had just passed away. he said, i am angry with god, and he talked about that. what both those men have in common that may be did not make for the best presidency, and this is true with grover cleveland, is that they were inflexible. they were stubborn. and sometimes that can be a good thing and sometimes that can be a bad thing. with carter, it was a very good thing outside of washington because he is obstinate about certain -- and i think he did within the presidency for the many reasons he is not ranked as

roosevelt and harry truman, this party i see shall rise again. this party of king, and kennedy shall rise again. this party of jimmy carter, shirley chisholm, and john lewis will rise again. this party of barack obama, joe biden and kamala harris will rise again. and we will take this fight for the people of the united states to them, and we will win so a government of the people, by the people and for the people shall not perish from the map. [applause] >> thank you, governor. that includes the nominating and second inc. speeches for governor martin o'malley. we will move to nominating statements for ben wikler. i ask that he and his speakers join us. the 10 minute window will begin once your first speaker begins. >> hello, democratic family. i am the chair of the mighty michigan democratic party and vice chair. in both of these roles i have seen again and again how unfailingly supportive ben is of his fellow chairs and that is why i'm supporting him. he has fund raised with me to raise money for the michigan democrats and i know he has provided organizing and fundraising models to many others. he has also raised
