they would even be you when i was photographing it at monticello, the 76 citizens, they would gather and look at the numerology -- numerology is fun were you take the numbers and add them up. seven plus six equals 13. well, where this is leading is that mr. jefferson as did franklin extrapolated that for every 19 years there is a new generation of americans born. every 19 years and if you will supply that on july 4th, 2005 the day i was walking up to the dome to photograph the 76 citizens, we became at that point all of us became the 13th generation of americans since the founding of the revolution. this is the original american dream. again, the math is 19 times 12, ultimately july 4th on mr. jefferson's death day anniversary, we became the 13th generation. so the question would be, what will we do to pass on to the 14th generation to replenish what will become hours, whether we are as teachers, parents or myself as photo historians, our challenge to pass the torch on. and i guess as teachers, how to pass this on to a generation that is somewhat preoccupied with ipod's, a text messa

love for the dome became the first residential down in the united states when he built that at monticello. curiously it had 13 skylights and reminded me that freemasons, ideas from jefferson to franklin all loved her third teen -- 13 even the national press club was on the 13th floor. this is done it a visual labor prior notice much smaller back there perhaps it is deflationary or inflation. [laughter] but virtually everything on this dollar bill the pyramid, you can do this at home, there is the all seeing eye, 12 players that lead up to it, 13 gyros, 13 olive leaves symbolizing the piece eight purpose n.m. is the 13 letters in god we trust everything and coated and 13 the founders love to 13 they would understand our phobia with 13 floors or the 13 with airplanes the use to leak -- used to do that take it out for even our phobia about friday the 13th even when i was photographing the 76 citizens there would gather and look at the numerology you take the numbers and add them up 7 + 6 = 13. where this is leading is mr. jefferson as did franklin extrapolated that for every 19 years, there

i'd like to yield five minutes to the gentleman from monticello, indiana. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. buyer: thank you, mr. speaker. i rise today in opposition of this rule because h.r. 3082 represents a dramatic shift in the way that we provide funding for v.a. medical care by providing advanced appropriations for medical services, medical facilities and medical supports and compliance accounts. now, i have some great concerns because of the stress placed on the budget model could place us in the v.a. supplemental business. it also leaves out the i.t. and medical research accounts. so my amendment that was not made in order under this rule tried to correct what i viewed as a flawed process. the amendment would have added the v.a. information technology systems and the v.a. medical and prosthetic research accounts to the other v.a. medical care accounts that are included in the advanced appropriation section. now, many issues were raised about the potential legislative proposals that had advanced items on the committee on veter

caller: i am calling to you from within two miles of bond rejected the miles of monticello. host: what is your question? caller: it relates to punctuation and capitalization. i am looking at a second amendment, two versions of the second amendment on line. militia is capitalized, the state is capitalized, the right of the people to keep and bear arms is capitalized. therefore, malaysia has to exist -- militia has to exist. the district of columbia is [unintelligible] therefore, they do not have the right to keep and bear arms. guest: you are talking about the bill of rights. the second amendment as contained in the bill of rights, which was written in 1789 and ratified by the states in 1791. the declaration of independence was approved by congress in 1776. it says nothing about the question about the right to bear arms. it attacks the king of england for keeping a standing army in times of peace in the colonies, but the issues you are interested in do not appear in the declaration of independence. host:bill in pennsylvania. you are on "washington journal." caller: thanks for

he cannot wait to get back to monticello. there is james madison, completely shy and boring. thomas jefferson comes and and he is so happy to be getting out of the presidency, but he is looking for someone to talk to. he makes his way over to the biggest party animal in the room, john quincy adams. john quincy adams was not a party animal, but he liked to talk about these things. you do not see that in the picture. >> right, so many of his greatest works did not have his name attached. let's start with the young madison. this was somebody who remained, all his life, deeply rooted in his virginia -- gentry. how does that -- how did his virginia roots affect the intellectual character that he brings to the constitutional convention and his other great achievements. >> as is almost always the case, indeed very early years of everyone's life, it is not recorded with the same thoroughness. there's a lot the we do not know about his early years. certainly, going to princeton is a big move for him. however, a lot of virginians are doing that. i am going to say something controversia
