this is mandela? >> his response and reflected and he thought there was a time when i was in negotiation with the hutus and tutsies and he said we want to talk with you because it's like talk with our father, and we feel your interest is just to get it right for everyone. everybody else has an agenda, you know, and that is fortunate. unfortunately, the truth about a lot of national governments is, you know, a particularly when politicians have to pay lots of money to get elected. you have to make agreements for compromi compromises. people who have had that experience could maybe add something. one of the founding principles of the elders is they talk to everyone. you know, too bad, too horrible to communicate with because if you look, you know, if you look at mandela, himself, you look t attis, you see terrorists as they were called by some faxes become statesmen or peace makers. you know, tutu, himself, says no one is beyond redemption. and so we just have to say, actually, you know, people are extr

mandela, this is not a weapon. it's a microphone. he said, i'm so glad to hear it. i thought it was a shotgun pointed at me. we broke up in laughter. i thought, that was one of the moments that you kind of live for. >> you absolutely remember those, without a doubt. my father and you, you would have a descripter, brought this up when you mentioned john edwards. no socks for a politician. what did that mean? real quickly. what does no socks mean. >> tim and i had a lot of short hand when we talked. and there was a candidate running, i can't get too close to it, the identification of it, democrat who was running in the midwest. and tim said, how is he going to do? i said, i can make a couple calls to find out. it was a guy who had a place in the east as well. he had gotten infatuated with the eastern seaboard south where luke spends a lot of time on nantucket. so i called one of my friends in the midwest, and i said, how is he going to do? he said, one line, he said, he doesn't wear socks. and it was that summer kind of thing that you see in the eastern seaboard. you

but i'm not mandela. >> your father and sister were imprisoned in iran. didn't you worry about the fact that you might get into trouble? >> yes, you are worried. you are thinking about it sometimes. but it cannot stop you from doing your job. and i was -- i mean, i was very cautious if you ask anyone who worked with me, they know that i was very cautious. i always respected people. i always respected the laws. but i could not do anything when they wanted to implicate me. >> part of what appealed to me was his ability -- he spoke earlier about he's trained to distance himself from it so his observations in the memoir that he wrote are so keen and so layered and we spoke earlier about his family. the idea of generations lost to these oppressive regimes. his father was taken by the shah, our al lie, and his sister was taken by khomeni who was still practicing traditions passed down through generations. there are so many different and universal aspects to this story. >> i just want to go back to your appearance on the daily show. >> i didn't see you there. >>

he said, mandela created a modern political state. i'll create a modern economy, and here comes aids. so you have to deal with that and then you have to try to think of things that aren't in the headlines that will prepare for a future. you have to do all that. i don't think you can disaggregate these things. that's one of the things i hope will come out of this program. >> i agree completely with that. i thought stephanie and margaret had a valid point in that issues change, circumstances change, economies change, but there are certain principles that don't, management principles and leadership skills that won't change, and the idea, of course, is to not only have a class but to have a series of classes, big alumni association, encouraging people to sign up and also reinforcing the lessons learned about what it takes to lead. and, again in washington, people think they're talking about budget chairman or something like that. if you're a small business owner, these lessons apply to you as well, the four areas of discussion. you may ha

[applause] in any case spanish cuba was in a quandary. of though one hand they suspected were ever won, the winners would want cuba because that is for taking it decades previously there is the effort to make it a state of united states of america. that is one idea that circulates. another idea is solidarity for comrades to defeat the north. then the self would oust the spanish the bennett opened airport to united states of america but after the defeat there was tremendous pressure to abolish slavery and a bloody war erupted leading to the rise of a figure of antonio from haiti was to be a hero against black americans even today carry the name. and eventually it was years of war as happens as they slug it out the united states decides to intervene and then takes over the island of cuba and as noted this leads to the race war in cuba of 1912 to save thousands of africans are on the island in 1912. but it is something of a contribution to highlight the role of u.s. authority. because th

, which is why in december 2013 when nelson mandela had his funeral in south africa, one of the few heads of state who was asked the speak amongst all of the heads of state present was president raul castro of cuba. [applause] in any case, you should also know that during the civil war spanish cuba or the spanish who ruled cuba, were in a quandary. on the one hand, they suspected that whoever won the north or the south during the u.s. civil war, that the winners would want cuba because there had been a lust for taking cuba for decades previously. this had been this effort to make cuba a state of the united states of america. so that's one idea that's sirlating in the -- circulates in the minds of the rulers in cuba. another idea that's circulating is they should be in solidarity with their comrades who are slave owners in the south in order to defeat the north. but then again, as i said if the south had won, the south would be after cuba ousting the spanish. but in any case, at the end of the day they decided to open their ports to the confederate states of america, so-called. but after t

there's nelson mandela, south africa's first black president and nobel peace prize recipient...he american president who fought the civil war to preserve the union and to abolish slavery. but there was one particular person's likeness i wanted to see. they say the statue of prime minister disraeli is here in parliament square. let's see if we can find it. disraeli actually served twice as britain's prime minister under queen victoria. no, that's not him. in the age of imperialism, disraeli is credited with helping to extend britain's influence around the world. a popular saying in his day was that the "sun never sets on the british empire." neither is this. even though i was assured his statue was in the square, i couldn't find it. do you think they take statues away for cleaning? exasperated, i googled him and discovered that his statue is here, after all. in fact, it was one of the first i looked at... except that the name on the base isn't disraeli, but his official title of earl of beaconsfield. so, he was here, after all. the reason why i wanted to find him was because he's
