civil rights hero to commercial exposure in narrating the clips for the special benefit of justice john marshall second and elegant wall street lawyer who was by then losing his eyesight, so he would basically say okay look what's happening now. look what he's doing. look what she's doing. mocking the issue i know it when i see it i called out in the dark i see it. [laughter] in 1968 about 20 years after serving in the u.s. navy a still youthful stuart reflected on the times and can't fight it in a particularly curious clerk. you might wonder who that is but i guess he had indeed seen it. i sent mr. justice have you seen it and he said just once off the coast of algiers, and that is all that i was ever able to learn about what it was that he saw. that's all they want to say about the book and i really welcome your questions. thank you for your attention. [applause] you had your hand up. please. >> week sure you have the microphone. >> is a tradition to say what the law is. >> that is john marshall. >> my question is about the case in jerusalem and citizenship. you quoted the case if the court de

you have the great dissenter, john marshall harlan. he will be known as the great dissenter. by birth, he is a seven or. he had owned slaves. he will free them prior to the end of the civil war. in the beginning, he was not a fan of democrats or republicans, although he will end up republican. he did not believe the south should secede from the union. that is why you see was a unionist, ok. technically, he did not support evolution, but he decides to free his slaves before the end of the civil war could he did not support the 13th amendment either and he did not support lincoln for reelection. his opinion will change. he had certain opinions as a southerner growing up in that environment. reconstruction progress and fail, he had different attitudes. one attitude does not change. he is still a product of his time. in that time, it says certain races are superior and others are inferior. but in front of the law, he says everybody is equal. ok, in front of the law everybody is equal. he was a brown -- he will say brown's opinion is grounded in it shouldd he thinks be grounded in

gentlemen like john marshall? madeira, that strong wine, imported wine. has a punch, but not nearly as powerful as what common people preferred. what the common people prefer? you are thinking beer because you're thinking in your own time, all right? what do you think of those choices would be the most popular for common men in america of 1830? whiskey, far and away. remember, we talked about the whiskey rebellion? how people were upset about the federal government putting a tax on whiskey? because that really hit home. that was a preferred item of consumption. now, it is a good question. why did they drink so much whiskey and very little beer? a lot of it has to do with technology. go ahead. >> [indiscernible] >> it has a warming effect, more so than beer, and that is important because a lot of people working outdoors. yes? >> [indiscernible] >> it does not spoil as easily. there is no refrigeration in the early republic, so you can't go to your refrigerator and get a nice cold beer. if you are going to drink a beer, it has to be freshly made and you got

you could say john marshall but it is an earlier style and it is hard to appreciate. early 19th-century writing but robert jackson was extraordinary. when he said that compulsory unanimity produces only the unanimity of the graveyard, he said in a few words what few have been able to say in entire books. >> will we be better off, there is a similarity to the supreme court in terms of their education, ivy league. >> all 9 went to harvard or yale. >> exactly. >> i do not have anything against harvard or yale but that is crazy. >> and all of them -- you do not have to be a lawyer to be on the supreme court. >> the only job where you have to be a lawyer is solicitor general. >> you don't have to be a judge. >> you look at the court that decided brown. it was former senators, former governors, that kind of life experience makes a difference. it was a great court. when o'connor was on the court the fact that she had been a state court judge and a state legislator brought something to the proceedings because the court is a mix. it is a chemical composition of the court which

things from your taxes and what not no you have you have first chief justice of the united states john marshall. actually. maybe he was the second he was he was appointed by john adams in any case as as jefferson was coming into office he said a corporation is an artificial being an invisible intangible being a mere creature of wall it possesses only those properties with the charter of its creation confers upon it either expressly or is incidental to its very existence. or not something else citizens united supreme court citizens united is they have a freedom of speech tom oh they're wrong you going to say you are wrong you can choose what laws you think are and i've never seen anybody with term and sense mitt romney tried peddling that corporations would see they are even more in our way to said no the us is supreme court has weighed in on this corporation out of it and on whether corporations would have free exercise rights the pressure side is that if the united was right this free exercise rights is very different corporations do not pray they do not have a belief system and my my friends

i suppose you could say john marshall but it's an earlier style and hard to appreciate. 18th century, early 19th century writing. but robert jackson was extraordinary. when he said that compulsory unanimity produces only the unanimity of the graveyard, he said in a few words what few have been able to say in entire books. >> rose: would we be better off, there's a similarity to the supreme court in terms of their education, ivy league. >> all nine went to harvard or yale. >> rose: yes, exactly. >> i don't have anything against harvard or yale but god that's crazy. >> rose: that's my point. >> right. >> rose: you don't have to be a lawyer to be on the supreme court. >> no, that's right. the only job where you have to be a lawyer is solicitor general. >> rose: exactly. at the same time to be a judge like eleanor kagan. >> right. you look at the court that decided brown v board, there were no prior judges there. it was all governors, attorneys generals, former senators, former douglas, former head of the scc. >> rose: it was a great court. >> it was a great court. when o'connor was on th

john marshall was both acting secretary of state and chief justice for a month in 1801. perhaps it was because he was so busy as chief that he never got around to delivering the commission to william marbury, which was husband responsibility. but by the end of the 19th century it did not take even a cabinet to lure the chief away from the court. in 1897, chief justice melville fuller accepted assignment to be a boundary arbitrator between venezuela and british guyana. i can understand the desire to get out of the country, but no one has asked me to do anything like that. william howard taft was of two minds on the subject of work for judges outside the judiciary. where he stood depended on where he sat. while president of the united states he drafted no less a figure an associate justice charles evan hughes to serve on a commission to determine postal rate for second class postage. when taft became the 10th chief justice, however, he adopted a firm ban on any such assignments. the ban has stuck since then, with two notable exceptions. justice jackson's service at nurembe

essentially two centuries of understanding of what a or is.ationf go back to 1890, chief justice john marshall, the great conservative justice, said that a corporation is an artificial entity, invisible, intangible existing only in concentration and law and possessing only theg right that the state legislaturo confers upon it through the charter. because of that, for more than half a century we have forbidden corporation -- fa which is also the thending understanding of the founding fathers, correct? >> they were on an extreme short leash and you can find quotations from thomas jefferson is if we got to keep him on ale. short leashje because something that justice white ended up thing might happen, justice l, white said the state has create eer corporation and the state nn not permit its own creation to consume it. but, of course, they've made that the law in citizens united. but in the austin v. michigan chamber of commerce case and the supr mcconnell decisions the supreme court said of courseem the can' fvernment can keep corporate money from flowing into tili political campaigns on an indep

there was armstrong and walker on two corners and then across the street on the other were john marshal and thomas jefferson, those were the two main white schools. so of course, the whites presumed to practice first and they did it with the drummers. the drummers were very sophisticated and polished, rudiment l drummers, but we laughed because we knew armstrong's drummers were precise, but we had soul. and we kicked their butt. there lay dead one of the great rules of white supremacy that we could do it better than we could. that was our first civil rights victory in my family because we talked about that forever. and of course, we marched gloriously. we marched like we had never marched before and there were black and white people cheering us along broad street. i get teary eyed just thinking about that moment. that was in richmond. >> so that would have been your high school years. >> yeah, you want me to say that again. >> you had mentioned to me earlier that you thought very seriously about taking music -- making music your life and going to school to study music in college. how di

jimmy john season a deputy us marshall came all the way from anchorage alaska to support the 3500 athletesple in new york have been great. getting around going to see the sights with these athletes and spreading the word. >> reporter: starting next week special olympics athletes like antonio bow will compete in team and individual events. this is antonio's 24th year participating. >> i have competed. >> the torch run made its final stop at liberty island. a fitting spot for the athletes to show their pride. >> great honor. like traveling all over new jersey. >> the torch run will continue across the hudson in new jersey tomorrow. opening ceremonies will begin sunday at the prudential center and the games start monday. from lower manhattan, liz, fox news. >> we have the special olympics covered for you on air and online. head to our website myfoxphilly.com and click on the special olympics heading right under our home tab. >> a waitress receives a $1,000 tip. but before she got a chance to cash it in her boss said not so fast. >> how far the customer wept when he found out a way to make goo

. >> joining me are gloria brown marshall, a constitutional law professor and cnn vatican analyst john good morning. >> good morning, carol. >> good morning. gloria was caught in traffic so she's on the phone with us but we appreciate your hanging in there, gloria. we do appreciate that. which way do you think the court is leaning? >> well, we have the case earlier of other religious case and the court was divided because it says that the government could exercise some diversity in allowing prayer before governmental services or programs began in the morning but this is a little different. the science says this is not ending a life and that is the main issue the green family has, i think that the court is going to say that the exceptions will become the rule if we allow these different companies to take on religious freedom that's well beyond anything that the court has seen so far. >> interesting. john, hobby lobby insists that is not about abortion politics but religious freedom. catholic bishops also object to the mandate. is hobby lobby the same as the catholic church, though? >> n

marshaled. i would like to see him in levinworth. >> we have john here a former navy seal. welcome back.of war? >> a man should be judged by had sum of his action. if he left his gear in that location and walked off his post there is no greater definition for deserting than that. when someone is labelled pow they get full benefits that come along with that. what the dod should be retiring is whether or not he was a pow or a deserter. if he deserted and was kid napped it is totally different than being kidnapped off the post. and i think we are getting into muddy water over the moral of bringing him back and having rescued him whatever way we did through negotiations or not but bringing him back for moral is one thing but now it is someone who left his post and six people died trying to find him. >> general dempsey said the army may pursue the investigation of deserting. >> i believe they should pursue this heavily. you have to look at -- just like we are doing the background check on someone coming into the fbi, you have to look at their values. i don't think it is any secret he had feel

marshall, syndicated radio show. great to have you both together again today. we have opposing views between john boehner and josh earnest. will we have the same with our panel today. good or bad idea to sue the president of the united states? >> it's about damn time this lawsuit has been filed. this president has been going outside of the law and constitution and here josh learner saying didn't know it was available. you can bring a lawsuit when you think someone is not following the law. as for it being taxpayer funded, taxpayers are frustrated that the president passes laws with a stroke of a pen. that's the thing of petty tyrants and third-world dictators and not a privilege that barack obama is entitled to. >> i want to call your attention to this. look at executive orders issued by past presidents. barack obama isn't even towards the top of the list. george bush was 291. obviously he had more time in his presidency than obama has had thus far. clinton was 364. the first one, 166. ronald reagan, 381. and so far president obama is at 182 and you say what? >> thank you for taking my thunder, g

marshall and king. i love the expression on his face. it is like he is trying to listen in on his conversation. he might. that is sergeant sir john dell. churchill had brought them along on this trip and on subsequent trips to the united states. in the end, dill stayed behind in washington to serve as a kind of liaison between the english speaking allies. like marshall, dill was an underappreciated player in the contrivance of allied grand strategy. and in fact the running of the war generally. he was able to smooth over many of the rough patches between the allies. he was willing to talk back to his own superiors in london when it was necessary and gracefully represented the british view in washington. dill did not live to see the fruit of his labors. he died in 1944 before the invasion. he is one of a very few non-americans to be buried at arlington national cemetery with full honors. not pictured in this photograph are the russians. at this time they were bearing the full brunt of the war against the armies of germany and were positively frantic for the anglo-americans to open a second front in france to take some of the pressure of

marshall, who was a big leader in the unified command. the ability to create this unified command structure was one of the things that made it possible. >> here is john from san diego. go ahead. some father was one of 2000 african-american men who landed at omaha and utah beaches on june 6, 1944. thats one of the people drove the truck that supplied ammo and food, and yet you never see any african-americans .epicted in any movie i think it is a distortion of history that some 2000 african-american men were never given honor for what they contribute it to probably the greatest saving that ever occurred. >> i think you are absolutely right. and it is worse than you suggest. it's not just the 2000 african-american that were ashore on omaha and utah beaches. it is that 10% of the entire american army consisted of african-american men who did all the work and made possible -- logistic support work and made all of it possible for the invasion in the first place. but it is not historians and modern-day commentators who overlook that. it is that the archives, the film archives in particular. the camera men the photographers of that day took pictures of the t
