john f. kennedy was sworn into the office up at the capitol and by his side was jacqueline kennedy who would become our first lady and she herself would go down in history as being one of our most influential of first ladies. we have a particular reverence for here here at the white house historical association. but it was later that day on inauguration day that president and mrs. kennedy ended up at the white house and mrs. kennedy realized this was a home the people's house as she would call it. it was in badly badly in need of historic restoration. she believed that the white house should represent the very best of america artisans craftsmen. decorative arts fine arts furnishings. and so she took that on as her project over the course of the next three years. cut short tragically by the assassination of president kennedy, but what she put in place then is still the legacy of her influence of historic preservation at the white house acquisitions for the collection and actually education. it's a key

bear in mind, john f. kennedy creates this liberal tide, that's a liberal in the most liberal sense, that flows into the johnson presidency. faith in government in 1964 stands at 77%. and that's largely because of john f. kennedy, i think, having us believe in ourselves, and believe in our government. but lyndon johnson, wow, he takes advantage of that. he looks through the laws he put through the laws of the great society, most in 1960, five -- elected presidents in his own right. faces the quagmire of vietnam. and he is not necessarily truthful with the american people, either by his own doing or because he's being misled by his advisers. and the war becomes more and more controversial, the press becomes more and more critical. and i think that's when they sort of start things start to slide. but you know all presidents have a mixed relationship with the press. barack obama came to the lbj library, where there's a -- four lyndon johnson. if i walk across the potomac, the headline in the next days washington post

i heard from hugh who john f. kennedy was beyond the camelot. that got me very intrigued by john f. kennedy. hugh and i worked on a joint project. he started that project talking about john f. kennedy. while there have been many books written, there is an old expression -- write the book you want to read. this is the book that i wanted to read about john f. kennedy. i tried to make it a very brisk narrative that makes you feel as though you are going through these very tumultuous, very triumphant, very tragic days of the kennedy presidency. you are there with them day in and day out as he rustles with one issue or another. it is episodic, in a way. i also wanted to wrestle with the camelot mid, which overshadows kennedy in so many respects. it deprives him in so many ways of his humanity. that was important to me as well. there are so many books with an agenda. my only agenda was to capture this indelible president and what he meant to the country and the momentous decisions that came across his desk. >> the country is still so fascinated by him. they are fascinated by the family, th

and after kennedy was assassinated, john fijiraet robert decided to run for president and continue hiser's policy. and i have the impression that the assassination of robert kennedy already in the sixty-eighth year is due to the fact that he claimed to be a candidate for the presidency of the united states and could continue john's policy , including the transfer. financial power in of the united states from the control of the federal reserve system to the control of the government of the united states until now, for reference, i must say that the federal reserve system controls both the issuance of the dollar and the circulation of the dollar not only in the united states but throughout the world, the government of the united states since then the states have never raised the issue of transferring money that imitates the federal reserve system dollar under the control of the government, so now we have a situation, when the united states government does not control the dollar and attempts to control it led to the murder of two brothers. every man is born with five dry land, and every f

so i think you go back and john kennedy talked aboutth strengtht home and strength abroad. ennedy people forget this i know it was a long time ago but if alive today i'm just saying he wanted growth at home which he got posthumously from the tax cuts and brought the soviet union tooth and nail. these are not historical coincidences. these are principles that work whether you are a democrat or republican. one of mycr arguments today as a former democrat pat moynihan was the last democrat i worked for and he was half republican but the point i'm trying to make is there was a time the two parties were a lot closer together than they are today. this far left stuff is being rejected by common sense people throughout the country and i'm a hopeless optimist you know this hopeless optimist as long as we protect its freedoms this little far left woke aberration will not last. that's my take. >> next call comes from martin in dayton, ohio. >> thanks for having me on. really grateful. going back to the cnbc days i generally would always listen to him, not agreement always listen. immig

john f. kennedybout the presence of soviet ballistic missiles in cuba. on october 22, kennedy made a televised address to the americans and announced the appearance of soviet missiles in cuba and the decision to declare from october 24 a naval blockade of the island to transfer to combat, readiness us armed forces and enter into negotiations with the ussr in the caribbean. more than 180 us warships with 85,000 people on board were sent into combat, the readiness of american troops in europe was brought to twenty percent of strategic aviation. was on combat duty, we note that the deployment of soviet missiles on the island of liberty was explained by the need to prevent us armed aggression against cuba to oppose soviet missiles to american ones deployed in italy and turkey the caribbean crisis of 1962 was not without reason they call it the apogee of the cold war, because the soviet union and the united states of america came close to the edge of the abyss, then both washington and moscow were very de

and that leads us into john f kennedy the next president to die and just very quickly after john f kennedy who also died on planned is when presidents started to do this pre-planning of funerals and and wondering binder that turned into three or that grew over time. so that's when we see the modern the modern-day state funeral that were so familiar with now really start to form after kennedy. really herbert hoovers was the first one that had that pre-planning that had gone into it. yeah, and as you've pointed as we both pointed to the the planned element of it is as geneus said, okay. well, you don't know when when it's going to happen. my gosh with john f kennedy, you really really don't know when it's going to occur. yet a funeral still needs to take place and needs to take place relatively quickly. so nicola if you could talk to us, you've got this fabulous museum here in dallas the sixth floor museum, but a great deal that that covers jfk's funeral. how were they able to do that? well, i think the last thing the presidential couple expected when they made their visit to texas into dall

joining me now, republican senator from louisiana, john kennedy. senator kennedy, good to have you here today. i want to put up one of the statements from china. this is one of the new statements since the visit began. speaker pelosi is the leader of the u.s. congress. her visit to and activities in taiwan in whatever form and for whatever reason is a major political provocation to upgrade u.s. official exchanges with taiwan. china does not accept this and the chinese people reject this. that comes on the heels of president xi himself saying that this visit would be playing with fire. where do you think this is going? >> martha, i support spoker pelosi's trip to taiwan unconditionally. but with an explanation. as petty and self-absorbed as washington looks like from the outside, you ought to see it from the inside. this entire exercise began with spoker pelosi's ego. now, when you're talking about a nuclear war with china, you should take your ego out back and shoot it. but that's not speaker pelosi's way. she knows after the mid terms she's not goi

interestingly when john kennedy emerges, uh enters this discussion in 1960. he really had very little time for space prior to that. he was not like some other politicians particularly interested in talking about it in 5758, but in 1960 kennedy saw the power of space as a political issue that the failure of the united states to compete effectively with the soviet union represented as far as kennedy was concerned all of the ways in which the united states had lost its initiative its drive. it's vigor as he said during the eisenhower's years and so he ran in part on closing the space gap but the truth, is that when he entered office, he had a lot of other pressing priorities. i know we'll talk about those and space really wasn't one of them and he too avoided the term space race as long as he possibly could really until april of 1961 when the soviets achieved the greatest first of all, which was sending the first human being into space eureka garden. so we really were behind what call it what you will if you don't want to call it a space race and if eisenhower a

and the soviet suffered 27000000 deaths when it's 7000000 is an incredible number. 80 when john kennedy gave us american universities commencement address invitees. 63. he said that was the soviet, suffered a world war 2 was the equivalent of int.

he became a young white house aide to john kennedy and not long after the inauguration. kennedy called him into the office and he said look at this --. there's a series of small indentations on the floor here of the oval office. what do you think? they are and my husband said, could it be some security devices? could it be some microphones implanted by jay edgar hoover? no kennedy grind. it's from ike's golf shoes. you see he would put them on at his desk and then he would walk outside to practice his putting on a new putting green that he had put outside on the south lawn. well, jfk said, i guess we all have our own ways of relaxing from the burdens of office. at least i won't leave any marks on the floor. i wouldn't even tell you where that one goes. but anyway, let's return to taft. for he found in my beloved baseball another means of relaxation. it was taft to in 1910 at a washington senators game throughout the first ball and that became a thing that presidents do legend also taps calves credit with the seventh evening stretch as the story is told the six foot two 30

so basically, in a nutshell, john f. kennedy was a pro growtx democrat. he was a taxcutting democrat. he was a supply side democrat. and when he ran in 1960 he really ran as the growth guy and richard nixon ran as the status quote in those days republican party was okay with very high tax rate. eisenhower had no interest of cutting the 91% tax rate they inherited from fdr's new deal. kennedy did not explicitly run on it. i want 5% growth. i want low unemployment. they're been three recessions from the eisenhower years. thirty-eight recession that is a little-known fact but it is true. and they connection to reagan some 25 years later was reaganin lowered marginal tax rates also. and helped reignite an economy i would argue is i do quite a bit on our show the reagan tax cuts almost a three decade prosperity. was on the wound and undermined by lbj great society richard nixon, gerry ford, jimmy carter, none of them understood taxer cuts. none understood they we can talk about that more. and met nobel prize winner, jack kent and others brought the dsupply sid

in a nutshell, john f. kennedy was a progrowth democrat. he was a taxcutting democrat. he was a supply-side democrat. when he ran in 1960, he really ran as the growth guy and richard nixon ran as the status quo. in those days, the republican party was ok with very high tax rate. eisenhower had no interest in cutting that 91% tax rate they inherited from fdr's new deal. kennedy did not explicitly run on it but set i want 5% growth. i want low unemployment because there had been three recessions during the eisenhower years. that is a little-known factoid, but it is true, factually. the connection to reagan some 25 years later was reagan lowered marginal tax rates and helped reignite a more abundant economy. i would argue, as i do quite a bit on our show that the reagan tax cuts launched almost a three decade prosperity. the jfk tax cuts launched a decade-long prosperity, but unfortunately was unwound and undermined by lbj's great society. richard nixon, jerry ford, jimmy carter, none of them understood tax cuts, none of them understood the incentive effects, the economic
