i know john quincy adams had been dead for 12 years. he died -- he was a member of congress at the same time and admire john quincy adams. certainly john quincy adams had become a fervent abolitionist. it was argument relationship with slavery. it is true that lincoln center's president-elect did an impact in his immaculate dress he did not want to interfere with slavery anywhere it was then in existence. i think there was no mistake in 1861 and 1860 when he was elected that lincoln was the slavery. he was a candidate of the republican party created specifically to oppose slavery. he had been elected because millions of millions of americans are ready to draw a line in the sand and say no more compromise with the south. no more protection of this terrible and dictation. yes, i do think lincoln was a president who represent the feelings of people like john quincy adams. host to wind you first get interested in war? >> guest: like anybody who loves american history, i became fascinated even when i was a kid going on the eighth grade class

tell me what to quincy told you. >> he said, whatever you do, the score is cool. make sure you get all of the songs. what do you mean? that is where the money is. if you produce a few hits, it will be great. i wrote songs that were comedic in the film. "just let your soul glow." eddie and arsenio were dying to make that into a single. i had to look eddie -- he probably still has not forgiven me. they nailed to those parts so well. imagine if we had a music video with and singing that song. i was taking myself so seriously because i had a chance to do a symphony orchestra. some of the greatest african and latin percussionists and all of the other people i brought on. i was standing with like 150 people. don't destroy my sound track. it was a muted -- musical comedy. for a black man to get that kind of responsibility was incredible to me. and did not want to cheapen my song by having you guys make a joke out of it. it would have been brilliant. and what would i have gotten paid. oh, man. tavis: you did the score for the film. i'm sure you have seen in countless time

that's john quincy adams. and one of the most powerful closing arguments of any case was given by john quincy adams in the amistad case just downstairs in the old supreme court chamber. toward the end of his argument, when he was so concerned that he might be losing and if he lost the argument, he lost the case, he was representing -- in which he was representing the africans who had been captured, had chains put on them, they were able to get loose, take over the ship, ultimately ened up in the u.s., so the -- ended up in the u.s., so the lawsuit was over, they were free -- -- were they free people who could go where they want or were they slaves? he called every up with of the justices that had been on the supreme court by name and said where are they? where is the solicitor general that argued against me last time i was here? in the course of the arguments, about three days in the amistad case, one of the judges died one night. that kind of throws a crimp in your closing argument. but when they resume the c

john quincy adams liked him, took him under his wing. and it was reported that after lincoln was defeated after just two short years, went back, made some money, working, doing some legal work for the railroads and other things, after the compromise of 1850 he knew he couldn't allow this slavery as even more states with slavery, got back involved and fought the battle. didn't get elected to the senate. 1860 got collected -- elected president. but it was reported that someone asked him, if there was anything memorable that happened during his two brief years in the house of representatives and that he replied, basically that not other than those powerful sermons john quincy adams used to preach on the evils of slavery. he knew it was wrong, but it just etched it on his soul. he had to do something. john quincy adams died in 1848, not achieving what he had originally thought he was called to do, end slavery. but a man who believed in god, who read the bible constantly, who's second inaugural address is etched in marble on the north inside

for instance, john quincy adams -- the cdc from? the sixth president of the united states is there to the declaration less than the fundamental elements and principles of american constitutional law. in his new come to declaration and constitution's quote, are part of one consistent whole. founded upon the same theory of government. even abraham lincoln at gettysburg address in 1863 asserted the united states was founded for score and seven years ago. in other words, in 1776 come on the declaration was issued, rather than a 1989 and the constitution was ratified. such evidence supports the view of those who argue the constitution is ruled by the declaration, which may be considered as real preamble. charles l. black, clint scully of constitutional law argues a new birth of freedom the declarations about how hard the constitution and he contends the declaration as a whole was inactive to shame. and so the rights and freedoms that sets forth not only have the force of the common but are in fact it of law. so today this comic a means o
