years, the camelot clan used eisenhower as a foil to reflect glory on their young and dynamic john kennedy and after all, it's harder than it looks. my students would all get this. you know, wouldn't you if you were kennedy's advance man use ike as the sort of counter foil? on the one hand in 1954, eisenhower and mamie are playing scrabble. i think that looks pleasant and lovely but they had to work with this guy so naturally trfs a sharp contrast and it works against eisenhower's memory and against the impression that was given to the public the by the time of his death on march 28, 19689 at the age of 78, the press seemed uninterested in ike and there was an obituary in "time" magazine that concluded that eizenhower was "more of a figurehead man than a president." he was "out of touch with his people. " he was a great soldier but he was judged a mediocrity, maybe even a failure at president. starting in the 1980's, a great deal of classified information started to become available to scholars. if you bo to kansas, and work in the eisenhower library, you can learn all kinds of juicy detai

kennedy years, the camelot clan used him as a foil to reflect glory on their young and dynamic john kennedy. it is harder than it looks. you know, wouldn't you if you were kennedys advance man use ike as the counter point. they may be playing scrabble, i think that looks very pleasant and lovely, but they had to work with this guide. so naturally there was such a sharp contrast. and it worked against his memory that was given to the public. by the time of his death, at the age of 78, the press was uninterested in ike. they concluded that he was more of a figure head than a president. they said he was "out of touch with his people." he was a great soldier, but maybe a failure as president. starting in the 1980s classified information started to become available to scholars. if you look at the eisenhower library, you can read to many juicy details. it showed thattize ize tiz izttn eisenhower was deeply involvemented in the details of american national security issues. but the emphasis of the scholarship that started to come out was to attack him for being a kind of an evil genius. what about

i believe it's a direct message to 43-year-old lieutenant junior grade john kennedy who was coming in who has no experience managing the brass. no experience managing the multi-tasking and part of what he is saying is okay america you voted for john kennedy against my guy richard nixon but it's on you to hold your leaders to the high standard to make sure they're doing the job of moni r monitoring the military industrial complex. it's a direct message to the public, make sure you keep tabs on the leaders and that they have your best interest at heart. which is to say we built it. i did it. i own that. but at the same time i want you to be aware it comes with a burden responsibility he wants to place on the public so they will keep an eye on this inexperienced guy who is now in the white house. >> question right here. yes. and do we have another hand up over here. okay. we'll bring a mic in the green shirt and then i'll come down here to you. hi. >> good evening. he took office seven years after the end of the world war ii and did bring in senior officers that worked with him in world

john kennedy franklin roosevelt you see in these people that they have these traits they either have a full blown manic depressive illness or bipolar illness as call or they have these traits as part of their personality all the time a little bit an example would be churchill who had very severe depressions and during the 1930 s. the most famous wilderness years as he called it when he was out of political power and nobody listened to him he was very depressed but at the same time was extremely realistic about the nazi threat while almost all politicians of all spector in anyone's really were in denial about it and i think that's an example of where the depression brings out the realism that makes you a great attorney now you are now undef various. you know that many sex ask people i'm mentally unstable and perhaps it's that i'm in mental illness that powers them through but i think many psychologists these days believe that it is a compound satori a coping adaptive mechanism will learn this children and that mechanism has to be dispensed with if one wants to be happy and how he you

john kennedy was shot in order to kill john kennedy. what charles gateau was trying to do -- he had nothing personal against james garfield. he liked the man. he met the man, he met the man, met his wife. he wasn't so much trying to get garfield out of office as to put someone else in office. he was trying to make chester alan arthur and his circle of friends the president and ruling circle in the united states. it was a regime change. that's a very scary thought when you think about it, and he was successful in doing it. >> and getting back to andrew johnson, i'm going to steal a question that was asked of other historians. abraham lincoln, of course, is ranked the number one president. james buchanan, who preceded him, and andrew johnson who came after him, are consistently ranked the last two. how do you explain that? >> lincoln is sort of historical kryptonite. you don't want to be close to him. he had the greatest challenges of any president, i think, and did such a wonderful job, it's hard to look good next to that. but both bucha

so john f. kennedysaid not let's just go to the moon by the end of the decade, and we did it with our apollo program under nasa. you had six several mercury astronauts with john f. kennedy. but he was starting to pursue ocean, mapping of our ocean floors and embraced people like rachel carson's 1962 silent spring, which gave birth to the modern environmental movement, and did a lot of the right moves with civil rights at the time of the freedom rides and the assassination of medger evers. late '72, nixon just beat mcgovern in the biggest landslide in american history and on tape you can hear nixon saying, somebody's got to do a book about 192,72, i am the bes president ever. i just won the biggest landslide. i did the breakthrough to china. he went on all the things he did. the next month watergate is hounding him and his reputation's been destroyed by the combination of those tapes with anti-semitic slurs and the watergate fiasco. so nixon hasn't been able to strategic track -- you won't see him ranked

when i wastion a girl, i went with my parents to a convention in los angeles that convention, john f. kennedy was nominated. as he gave his acceptance speech in the coliseum, and an enormous me,torium, stadium, excuse when obama did that in denver are come everyone said that was not. don was the first time. my suggestion to mr. perez was get a gigantic stadium and put people six feet apart so instead of having 80,000 people there you would have 16,000 people there and do it all in one day. i know what that entails. have your platform and nominate your vice president and president and have your speeches and everyone goes home. the problem with it though is logistics. you have to have many more buses to get people there. that was my suggestion to him with absolutely no support for how it could be done but just knowing on how exciting it was to be in the stadium with john f. kennedy and barack obama making their speeches but never with the idea that they would move because of the coronavirus. they will make an informed decision about it. i feel sad about it because it is such an exciting thing a

kennedy's. jacqui and john. everyone else on my walls or relatives. my father who was a republican, don't tell anyone, became a democrat when kennedy ran for office. but he still had a certain admiration for nixon. he felt that he was a great president, until watergate. and he had never change his democratic evaluation after going with kennedy, he certainly did have a certain kind of feeling for nixon. i find nixon to be much more interesting than kennedy. because nixon was so flawed. your book really sells that out. he comes out loud and clear. some analysts (applause) very insecure, who probably would have liked to done the right thing, but couldn't. because it was in his background or whatever. i think that we could identify more with nixon, in terms of him as opposed to kennedy who was perfect. and we all know he was not. >> i want to make sure you all know, in the 44 chapters of this book, there's a different author, different historian riding each one of them. plus we have a website set up for people like me were interviewing these authors, const
