the kennedy center for the performing arts and the list of v-i-p's seems to be nonstop." the john. f. kennedy center for the performing arts opened with pomp and circumstance on september 8, 1971. the opening performance featured the world premiere of a requiem mass honoring president kennedy commissioned from the legendary composer and conductor leonard bernstein. "i think perhaps it's the most thrilling, total theatre experience in my life." "that's a big statement." "yes, i meant it to be." "oh i was overwhelmed. it's so wonderful in every respect but i think it's something you have to see again and again because as i said, just overwhelming. emotionally from the point of view of the mass. and i think it's a great thing for washington because the young people will come here and they will see not only the government but they will see this cultural center and they will carry some of these ideas back to their different communities and that's what jack was interested in." "i felt i was sitting in the seat that if the gods had been kinder, should've been occupied by john f. kennedy."

john kennedy is now president. by this time the force of the revolution in vietnam is gaining strength. kennedy, lacking eisenhower's military background, felt greater pressure to follow the advice of his military advisers who said we need to send military force into vietnam. or we will risk losing vietnam to communism. i will stop here. the premises on which the united states initially sided with the anti-communist forces in vietnam were an artifact of the 1940's. what was not outlandish to believe that communism was it unified threat to the united states and a victory for communism anywhere was a threat to democracy everywhere. by the 1960's that was coming into question. because harry truman and dwight eisenhower and john kennedy had laid down this marker they felt obliged to live up to this promise. >> i want to reinforce what is justin said. i especially was like to urge you to read a book called the brothers. it is i think the finest book on how we got to where we were and to some extent where we are. john for

you he is doing what you thought john f. kennedyight have done, yet somehow the quicksand was rising. it started under harry truman. all it took -- john kennedy at one point talked about agonizing over it as well. there were a couple of tapes, but also comments over it. it was like taking a drink another drink, and another , drink, and you would want more. that addiction happened with harry truman. that is a hugely important american question that lynn brought up earlier with our exceptionalism, and when we are not exceptional, and how we deal with it or don't deal with it. it is much easier to say, oh yeah we are the greatest, and we , don't understand the ways in which we are not the greatest. and in the second world war, when we filled our oath, it was a rough half century or more of foreign policy. mark: what ultimately do you want the viewer to take from this? lynn: we are trying to ask a lot of questions, and we are hoping people will give it their attention. we know we are asking a lot at 18 hours, but this is an epic story t

university at an international symposium to mark the 50th anniversary of the assassination of john f. kennedy. the discussion ran 50 minutes. >>> hello. my talk is going to be a little bit different. i want to start with kind of a history lesson that took -- hopefully will show some of the context of what we're talking about. i not directly about the kennedy assassination, although i'll be moving into that as well. i apologize if some of this is familiar ground. okay. i would like to start by painting a picture of a time. imagine this, if you will. >> wiretapping and spying on americans, and even targeting a foreign adversary for assassination. wait, i'm describing 2013. p not just liberal institutions and democratic leaders, but also on the other side. for example, in 1971 nixon discovered -- maybe yomen and charles bradford had been stealing documents from henry kissinger. secretary of state. anyway, nixon's resignation in 1974 was followed by a heavily democratic so-called reform congress. some of the names that we recognize. henry waxman, tom hartman, and patrick leahy were elected in tha

the full name is the investigation of the assa assassination of president john f kennedy, performance of the intelligence agencies. by 1975, 12 years after the assassination, 11 years after the warren report. a number of reports and aspects that have been critical. and the momentum hadn't built for that. but in july of 1975, a story emerged that lee oswald had dropped off a note in dallas which had been destroyed after oswald was killed. and testimony was taken in the house of representatives surrounding this. and one question remained, which was whether the contents of the note was an innocuous complaint or a threat to blow up the fbi building in the words of the secretary that received the note. but in any case, this was one more chapter in an ongoing story of serious question about the warren report and a particular weather the warren commission had been served well by the fbi and cia that they used as their prime investigative arms and this is what the subcommittee took up. for obvious reasons, one of their focuses was why didn't anybody tell them about the plot to kill castro? ma

" this evening, we are fortunate to be with sex exceptional -- six exceptional men and women. six individuals whose lives have intersected with kennedy, who were in the kennedy administration, who have unbelievable stories, and just two weeks ago we had lunch together. i assure you, this is a most entertaining group, and if we had all night, we would have stories all night, but we only have an hour. i am sure you know that. our fellowship afterwards, we may be a will to continue some of these wonderful stories and conversations about what it was like during the kennedy administration. i would like to share with you two observations that it took was in the luncheon. one, there is a br

i think when you mess with something like the assassination of john f. kennedy and those of us who lived through, republican, democrat, or whatever, that was the moment of their life. 9/11 was horrible, but that was something that cut to the heart of this country to have a young president killed right in front of us, and to use it as a political football to me is outrageous. he accused the other guy's father of being an assassin. there's no other way to read it. it's totally illogical because lee harvey oswald liked castro >> so does he say that because -- >> this guy's father hated castro. it doesn't make any sense. i'm talking about ted cruz. >> yeah, but does trump say that because he's up 15 points and he knows he's going to win or is he up 15 points because he's said thing after thing after thing. >> nothing like this. assassin? >> okay, well, but i mean he has sort of taken things that we think are sacrosanct and and blown them up. >> i put this with birtherism. to say that the president of the you'd mother, a white mother from kansas thought this through.

you could even argue john kennedy chose linden johnson as an established long-term senate leader to helph that process. if that is the case, you need someone with some familiarity with this. where does he look. >> first how thrilled i am to be on your show. and whether a wonderful anchor you are, [ laughter ] -- to be surrounded think sycophants. i'm just thrilled. here is the problem. not so much that he needs to be surrounded by someone who isn't a sycophant. if you are a the john kasich ar ted cruz any of these people who -- ted cruz isn't even establishment but any of these so called establishment figures, do you really want to tie yourself to this guy who probably is not going to pull it off and then not be able to run again in four years? >> i know what you are saying and there are those saying well do i really want to join a potentially losing ticket? and -- >> not just a losing ticket. a ticket that might potentially tarnish your goal of running next time around. >> people were saying that about ronald reagan at first. >> i'm not as ancient as you but i somehow recall. >> now you

there's the old story about how when john f. kennedy sort to stop wearing hats, so did the men of america. that may not actually be true but this is a true. after president kiir died and was buried at arlington national cemetery, the demand for people who want to be buried at arlington national cemetery wind up so much that had to tighten the eligibility to so we people were trying to get in that they worried they were going to run out of space to you of evidence of that president used to make points. you here in the aftermath of presidents death and funeral, if that president were still here today, wouldn't things be different? what if we could have a president like that in the white house begin today? and not just their names, their bodies are sometimes used to crippled. two years before the civil war a president's body was exhumed from the north and stayed en route to a seven state are because of the sexual tension. another presidents body was paraded around after the civil war essentially to convince northerners to treat the souther

they had lost the 1960 election to john f. kennedy and they produced a policy -- a record. the script is in the archives of the eisenhower library and in it, dwight eisenhower, who saw the script and helped plan the publicity record come across out some of the original wording and wrote these words telling a political philosophy. " good republicans have divergent beliefs, there are liberal republican and some in the middle of the road, but they all have a shared sense of principles." he felt the republican party had a wide tent. also, critically important, hiring a new republican, ronald reagan to be the narrator of this new gop record was perfectly fine with dwight eisenhower. on the record, reagan had introduced eisenhower and eisenhower thanked him. the individual themes of republicanism, individual freedom, smaller government, the were emphasized and the gop, having an inclusive tent for a conservative republicans in the middle of the road, was the theme of the record. after that, two years later, barry goldwater was running as the first major conservative to become a r

lyndon johnson, the majority leader who tried to beat john kennedy scheduled this session to go throughugust for one reason only. they wanted to leave whoever was the nominee. kennedy had to make sure they johnson was happy. that's one reason why kennedy had to put johnson on the ticket. >> they had to appeal to eleanor roosevelt. he had to go to her hat and hand and say will you forgive me for my brother working for mccarthy and having a father. will you forgive me the fact my father and your husband never liked each other and you're the keeper of the keys. will you please not get in my way. he's the keeper of the keys. >> paul ryan is the ideological leader of the republican party. >> he stepped up to the plate probably during one of the toughest times to be leader in history. his own party is divide and he's against a heavy weight in the white house. this is one more test of his leadership and he's done a good job. he's been tempered with what he reported. i would have expected them both to come out and say we're united, let's go beat hillary and do the photo op. we want jobs. we wan

those promises were made by harry truman and by dwight eisenhower and followed up by john kennedy. he was the inheritor of those promises but because this premises had been eight he did not think he could ignore them. it would've been politically impossible for johnson to say, this is a bad place to american to be involved we have to pull them. >> do you all agree with that? impossibilityical just to say very early on, we're going to pull out and let this remain a local issue essentially? a civil war? >> that is clearly the way president johnson saw it. that is the way most of those who trusted the most in congress and around him in his cabinet felt in the early stages. i should emphasize, however, that as the situation escalated, as the casualties mounted, as hey,houts of "hey, l.b.j., how many kids digital today? -- kids did you kill today?" could be heard in the white house. and i remember being out with him as protests were shouted very loudly at the limousine. he leaned over and said i just wish they knew that i want peace as much as they do, too. >> watch the entire program s

. >> that speech he gave this morning was right eloquent, reminded me of the speech with john kennedyo close to where we are now. that was given with the same motive which was that was a time talking about a treaty had been installed and kenny thought it may move the soviet off the dime. and for the first time the president acknowledged the members of people that died and brought victory. that had an enormous impact. all across the country had a big effect. >> brian, a word to two men that you knew very well, the fact that they had this nuclear thread initiatives that they control to a bipartisan act of congress and control the spread of nuclear materials, not state actors and materials in the age of terror, all these decades after the end of the cold war is remarkable. i don't think they get enough credit for it. >> it is and that's still the threat that people worry about that this material will fall into the wrong hands. if people have found the u.s. to be preachy in the years of the use of weapons because we are the only nation to have used them in anger. sometimes i am amazed tha

it w here an inaugural address to be known the world over, john kennedy called us to ask not what yourountry can do for you, ask what you can do for your country. to be sure, there has been no lack of pointless onstage preening within this commanding theater. no shortage of self-serving blather and brawling and endless days consumed with matters unbearably dull. we have the power to do any damn fool thing we want to do and seem to do it about every ten minutes, one senator, william fulbright, said a half a century ago. now, dialing for dollars reality as things currently conducted by our representatives in congress. but history is human. history is composed of the bad and the good. as so much that has taken place here so amply illustrates. there was that day on the senate floor in 1856 when political anger turned to manic rage and a south carolina congressman, preston brooks, attacking with a heavy cane -- attacked with heavy cane and nearly clubbed to death the outspoken abolitionist charles sumner of massachusetts. there was a day in 1950 when a freshman senator from maine, margaret

i love a john f. kennedy quote about courage. it was a quality president kennedy looked for more in people than anything else. he said, "without the belittling the courage of those who died, we should not forget those acts -- withge with men lived.en have man does what he must in spite of consequences and dangers and pressures and that is the basis of all human morality." cs lewis probably put it better when he said, "courage is not simply one of the virtues. it is the form of every virtue at the testing point." i want to submit to you that the foundation and education you have learned here at indiana wesleyan, the extraordinary place that has no your academic career on a foundation of centered character, scholarship, and leadership, i want to submit to you that to be a leader of that type, you must be prepared to face opposition and even criticism. it comes with the territory. as the old book says, in this world, you will have trouble, but take heart, overcome the world. to be strong and be courageous and to learn when to stand

helped you find this center was this letter that you stumbled on to, one that jackie kennedy wrote to lbj the day after johnnnedy's funeral. she writes in part, thank you for walking behind jack during his funeral. you did not have to do that and i'm sure many people forbid you to take such a risk but you did anyway. thank you for your letters to my children. you can imagine the touching thing is, they have always loved you so much. they were most moved to have a letter from you. how did that letter -- and you're actually tearing up a little bit right now. >> it was so emotional. when an actor goes and does research, we don't know exactly what we are looking for. people are helpful and say, can you guide us? i just don't know. i want to see everything and when it hits me, i'll know then. the first time i was at the johnson library in austin, i missed it. and it's a beautiful library. very informative and entertaining. and then i wanted to catch things that i didn't get. so i was there, i saw this letter and it left an impact on me. here is a man who ascended to the office of the presidency of the united sta
