anthony kennedy writes that one. in all of these justice scalia the sins, very angry sharper dissent. justice scalia and justice cherry are both appointed by ronald reagan. they are uploaded within two years of each other. they both happen to grown up in the catholic church but actually represent i think rather different visions. so having read windsor, having read romer, having read lawrence v. texas i think that it wouldn't be shocking for me if justice kennedy wrote the fourth in the series, just as earl warren wrote both brown v. board of education ending apartheid in education in 1954, and wrote loving v. virginia in 1967 ending apartheid in marriage. those were 13 years apart and to great warren court bookings. liberal republican in the lincoln republican tradition from sacramento. if you heard oral argument last week kennedy mentioned those two cases. he said there are about a dozen years apart, about how long it's been since we've had same-sex marriage in the united states. so it was openly musing about these

[applause] thank you so much. good afternoon and happy mother's day to all of you. it is my great pleasure to welcome you to the edward m kennedy institute for the united states senate. this institute was created to educate the public about the important role of the united states senate and our government. to encourage participatory democracy, invigorate civil discourse, and inspire a new generation of leaders. this afternoon, with our esteemed inaugural speaker, for our get to the point program series, i believe we fulfill every single aspect of that ambitious mission statement. let me make something clear. we call this program "get to the point" not because we are concerned about filibustering but because we are located here at columbia point. next of a john f. kennedy library and adjacent to the massachu

in president kennedy's words spirit, an example they remain -- as ever. it is up to us as adults to reach across the generations and recommit ourselves and our country to be ideals to live by. for my family in the kennedy library, the goals of these anniversary year's art sit still he interest and public service and use the power of history to help us solve the problems of our own time. we have undertaken a number of important projects. we have created the largest presidential digital archive, in which my father's papers are available online worldwide so people can study his decisions and see history in the making. we lost the jfk website which includes downloadable curriculum and resources for students and were kids can upload testimonials of their own service -- public service in the spirit of jfk. we have sponsored conferences on civil rights, the graham, and the quest for nuclear to zimmerman, all issues that continue to shape our national destiny. as you all know, we have published the seven interviews my mother gave in 1964 as part and an oral histo

senator, you're no jack kennedy. do you have once again with kennedy, reagan and clinton white houses and for all i know blake benson's better model had in common thomas jefferson's portrait on the wall. again, break and placed his next two calvin coolidge. so ergo jefferson the most malleable of figures. for liberals, jefferson's words reflect the cosmopolitan concern for human progress. for conservatives, his words appeal to a harmonious home life, safe secure and fairly homogeneous moral community. the new deal that jefferson defined -- the jeffersonian idea of freedom is having grown out of the self-evident truth during jefferson's words sacred and undeniable truth that all are created equal with equal access to the national economy and of course the reagan revolution said that freedom is the freedom -- the jeffersonian idea of freedom is the freedom of every individual, the right to master the economic environment without government standing in the way or imposing unfair regulations from the center. so property

sure. >> todd kennedy mr.ordan mentioned umpqua worked with supervisor avalos office to try to find a location within this neighborhood and this was the location that supervisor avalos office worked the project sponsor to find so that to me indicates there's you know support within the neighborhood for a bank at this location we did get support from the two most prominent neighborhood organizations in this area and while i can't talk about the business decisions why umpqua went in this location theres a general consensus this is a good spot. >> commissioner antonini. >> yeah. familiar with that area that's a hub area because ocean off flows into mission at that particular point i think this seems to be where a lot of the financial activities and other activities of the neighborhood seemed to be centered the bigger factor what's the closest umpqua bank to this location in san francisco. >> mark with reuben, junius & rose that's the potrero hill not opened and next on second street actually a store in hayes vall

>> president kennedy.t is easier to talk to people who have often been, who were alive and can talk about what the kennedys were like. one of these butler's remembers tacky kennedy would ask for different chairs -- jackie kennedy would ask for different chairs to be put in different places. he was younger. he was excited to be there. everyone would run away. they are very sweet stories i think people remember. press did she also say she would move furniture and not tell them ? >> the clintons would do that. they would be up until 1:00 or 2:00 moving furniture because he could not sleep. they were very upset by this because all of the furniture is catalogued. you need to know where it is. >> i don't want to leave the story of nudity until we get to ronald reagan. >> my thoughts for him were proven to be true. you saw him as someone who would be affable. there was a maid walking in on him, and he was in the sitting room naked reading the newspaper spread in front of him. she was so embarrassed she was blushi

[video clip] robert kennedy: when i think of president kennedy, i think of shakespeare and "romeo and juliet," when he said, and he shall die, and he shall make a face so fine that all will pay no worship to the garish sun. director witmore: that is a very powerful passage to describe the sudden loss of a president. it takes that to death, which is a political event and in historical event and makes it a cosmic event. we get a lot of calls from people who know a lot about shakespeare and at election time, we get requests for things like a quote from "twelfth night," and we give quotes from them. brian lamb: stephen greenblatt was on and we had a composite of writers on our book notes program that talked about shakespeare. let's watch. [video clip] >> what i try to do with humor and serious columns is let the reader see politics almost like a shakespearean drama where you have running characters. >> if you want to understand there is no better way than reading shakespeare than discussing it with a lot of people. >> in particular, mozart shakespeare, and keats are used as examples, and

kennedy is this kennedy? the only justice anyone ever cares about is kennedy.s the marcia to the supreme court's eight jans. >> for the first time in her life kim kardashian is only the second most news worthy woman in her family. >> are you a republican? >> yeah. >> yeah. that's right. bruce jenner declared he's a woman and a republican. in order, the gop finally found someone that might be able to beat hillary. so this is very interesting. bruce, 2016. bruce 2016. bruce 2016. >> just in time for political season. >> sure is. that's what's making new in america this morning. >> stay with us for "good morning america." have yourself a wonderful friday and week epd. >> we are following a breaking news story on this friday may 1. a serious single vehicle crash near the jersey shore. >> we have details into freddie gray's death that sparked nationwide protest. >>> marcus mariota will not be reunited with his former coach chip kelly.

kennedy: i'm so glad you brought that up. figure out what it is about presidents that allow them to connect with people because i think president clinton had it and i think that hillary clinton does not. but i also think that she can't stand having him around. >> can you imagine what kind of a pain in the neck he is going to be? if you get him into the oval office are never going to get him out again. once he sees the desk and thinks about the great times. >> it is going to be cuban cigar >> she can find a way to pay. women even less money. >> do you think that the former president and first lady are having some trouble in paradise we max. >> i don't think anything is different than it has ever been. but she is just not as charming as he is, there is something appealing about him. he is very charming and she is not. but also he is the former president and she is trying to be the president, just a different dynamic there. every time she opens her mouth she sticks her foot in it. >> that is an uncomfortable loafer to try to ext

kennedy?py i'm not -- >> i think it is interesting because i was talking to a friend of mine the other day. he said that he knew it was end of his marriage when his wife quit her job. because that is when she lost her edge. that is when she adopted his life and no longer had her own identity. >> saying there is some truth to his concern? >> i think a case could be made in their relationship that, you know, he thinks that her work makes her a more attractive person to herself, like she obviously derives self-worth, every working mom knows this, you can never get everything done. most exhausting thing in the world trying to balance work with being a mom. you know he thinks that she is better person for striving for that balance. >> that is what he thinks. sound like his motives are completely altruistic and he cares about her and knows her. you dig a little deeper, she says she is not happy. she doesn't want to work. she wants to be at home with the kids this is a problem in their relationship,

kate: that was during the kennedy administration. the head electrician and the dog keeper at the time saw some really strange things going on in the second and third floors. they technically weren't supposed to wander up there when mrs. kennedy was out of town. she was often going down to the farm in virginia. during the weekend, she didn't like staying at the white house. the president wanted the staff gone. he would ask for food to be put aside, and a picture of daiquiris him. his guests said he would swim, sometimes nude, with the secretaries. one staffer told me that they found dave powers, a top adviser to president kennedy, swimming in the pool with one of the secretaries, nake d. that just goes to show that they cap the roosevelt paralysis secret and they would real limit to the state dining room and make sure he was seated to no one else would know. everyone else would come in and they would hide the wheelchair. host: the presidency wrote about in this book, when did you start? kate: president kennedy. brian: why did you star

robert kennedy: when i think of president kennedy, i think of shakespeare and "romeo and juliet," hehall make -- and all the world shall be in night. [applause] director witmore: that is a very powerful passage to describe the loss of a -- the sudden loss of a president. it takes that debt which is a political event and a historical event and makes it a cosmic event -- it takes that event, which is a political event and a historical event, and makes it a cosmic event. we get a lot of calls from people who know a lot about shakespeare and at election time, we get requests for things like a quote from "12 night," -- " 12th night," and we give quotes from them. brian lamb: stephen greenblatt was on and we had a composite of writers on our book notes program that talked about shakespeare. let's watch. >> what i try to do with humor and serious columns is let the reader see politics almost like a shakespearean drama where you have running characters. >> there is no better way than reading shakespeare than discussing it with a lot of people. >> in particular, mozart, shakespeare, and keats

you step back and think of anthony kennedy, a ronald reagan appointee, took office in february of --ebruary of 1988. he has become the progressive in this area so when we all went into the courtroom on tuesday morning, we wanted to hear what he was going to say. his most recent opinion in 2013 he was the author of the windsor decision that struck down a portion of federal law that defined marriage as only between a man and a woman for purposes of federal benefits and that's the decision that so many lower court judges had run with to strike down other state laws to say that you cannot ban same-sex marriage. so here we were at the supreme court. as again said maybe once and for all, will the justices legalize it nationwide? he gave us a couple of different signals. we played the clip about him saying the definition of marriage for the millinnia has been a certain way but i think all told justice kennedy will continue on the path he's been on and likely vote with the four liberal members of the court to strike down same-sex marriage bans nationwide and create this new right. gwen: it s

kennedy said of bobby kennedy he'd quite often quote tom that jefferson who said if our tellcracy was to work every man must have his voice heard in some council of government. that is what democracy literally means. but have we ever had that in this country? if the greed of a minority drives the economy do we live in a tell real estate -- live in a democracy at all? this is why as a political player the historical jefferson remains a part of our national political conversation today. can anyone really say what jefferson would do if he were president today? yet his symbolism is such that america gauges its ability to uphold political virtues bit invoking his name. rathers of my previous book have e-mailed me with questions like, where would jefferson stand on gays in the military? ... >> normally president kennedy delegated to his social secretary or to his wife jackie, responsibility for putting together social event at the white house. but in april of 1962, kennedy took a hands-on approach to this one and he really cared about it. and i saw in washington dc at the national portrait

kennedy: that's a good question. it takes some time to work through the process of vetting and interviewing to get an appropriate fit for the position. we are far from that, and we will see what happens in the air future. peter: tj kennedy is the acting executive director of firstnet, and howard buskirk. t.j. kennedy: thank you. announcer: c-span. created by america's cable companies 35 years ago. announcer: on this weekend newsmakers johnny isakson is our guest. he is the chair of the veterans affairs community and talks about ongoing efforts to reform the v.a.. senator isakson: i am an optimist, and i would say succeeding is not the main goal of the v.a. statutory changes needed as well as leadership changes. that's why i have said we need to have bob mcdonnell's back and get the force of congress behind him to make sure he does the accountability measures necessary. i want to underscore this -- we have some of the finest health care professionals and technicians in the world. our problem is more the administration
