keynes not only read works read by roosevelt -- wrote works read by roosevelt's advisers, but he alsoaw in roosevelt's earliest monetary policies the outline obviously what became the postwar system of international monetary management. by working with u.s. and other international officials from all over the world to create the bretton woods system and the world bank, a system that is more or less still with us today and which played an important role in managing the response to the 2008 crisis. so in the book you'll find this story of how roosevelt came to use the dollar as an instrument of recovery, how keynes interacted with the roosevelt administration, how these two titanic egos operated in their respective spheres and worked together and sometimes clashed and how that monetary policy that resulted from that interaction defeated fascism in the u.s. and abroad. and how those successes make a case, and i think they had a better understanding of how and why to use monetary policy than perhaps mr. cruz and mr. carson. thank you. [laughter] [applause] so now we'd be happy to take ques

name of eleanor roosevelt is anna, eleanor roosevelt roosevelt. so she's given away by her own goal, theater rose felt. yes, any other questions? >> i wanted to ask him what made hitler so antigenic. how did he get that? >> the question is what made hitler get into eugenics? when you get into racial purity, it is a natural thing. in terms of pure eugenics, and guys like hitler were more into this a racial remain sort of thing. but beyond that, it is all part and parcel. but he is a foreigner to germany. he is an austrian. he asserted the odd man out and he worships a german mess of the german people and he feels that the austrian germans are being let down by leadership. even though his father has a job with the government, his father is a german nationalists. pcs the german people be polluted by jews and particularly by slobs. there is a greater chance that hitler is part jack benny is jewish simply because of the area in which he lives. it is a border area and if you get into these areas of eastern europe, and you know, everybody -- that is by w

franklin roosevelt was no radical. he never wanted the government to take over, the banks or the factories are the farm and i didn't do so well he was president. he did support labor and unions but only because he wanted workers to collectively organize to raise their wages without government intervening to redistribute wealth. the new deal maintained a social order that largely benefited white men. throughout the labor struggles in california roosevelt and his advisers dismissed and marginalize those who propose more radical alternatives. still the new dealers attempted to distance themselves. they were attacked for being too radical. as the center defined the left and the enemy, the the right claimed that the center was the left. this was a technique of course that conservatives would use down through the decades. they were portray a tip toe to the left as a stampede. to bring this back to california in closing, they once said that california is like america only more so. i think the struggles in the california field

president roosevelt did not live long enough to see it come to .ruition eleanor roosevelt did and was one of the united nation's first female representatives and wrote the first declaration of human rights. today, we look back that they had a vision. the united nations was created, and what happened to it. linda, i turn it over to you. >> thank you. first, i would like to welcome you and say it is an honor to be here on the 70th anniversary of the human i find it exciting you are here in the home of fdr and mrs. roosevelt. one can only imagine, i believe they came to work here or lived here in 1941, the u.n. charter was approved in june of 1945. i can only imagine, and think, fdr was planning and thinking while living here about the nature of the u.n. charter, how he envisioned the u.n. to be. as stephen so eloquently discussed in his book, it really was fdr who was the pivotal force behind the u.n. that he did here, without that they would be no u.n. towas a realist, and he had njole, barter, and push churchill to a certain degree. i think it is appropriate and special we are here fo

and roosevelt saw them and was not at all happy. because admirals with five stars, generals with five stars. my flag only has four stars! and that his presidential flag would appear to be outranked by military flags annoyed him no end. this was the sort of thing that could get him very upset. incidentally, very tiny things could get fdr upset, especially if they affected the navy. he did not like many of the names the navy would choose for ships that were under construction. he insisted on passing personally, himself, on the name of every new naval vessel that was to be built during world war ii. a phenomenal waste of time for a commander in chief. but fdr had been assistant secretary of the navy in world war i and he always referred to "my navy." so much so that general marshall once said, mr. president, sir, the army is also yours, please don't forget that. the human interest stories came our way all the time. the presidential flag and seal. fdr told his naval aide, who was a vice admiral, do something about this. and the aide, as

roosevelt. one can only imagine, since they came to work here in 1941 and the charter was approved in 1945. i can only imagine and think that fdr was planning and thinking about the u.n. charter and how he envisioned it to be. as was eloquently discussed in the book, it was fdr who was pivotal behind this here with major planning. if not, there would be no united nations. it had to cajole churchill, to a certain degree, and certainly, stalin. i have cover the united nations since saddam invaded kuwait in 1990. that was my first experience and it was, clearly, the end of the cold war and the first major mission of the un security council with china on board to deal with this last traditional kind of war, saddam invading kuwait. as we know, we had sanctions and, for a dozen years, there were weapons inspectors going back and forth to get rid of saddam's weapons of mass destruction. i have seen the good, the bad, the neutral. i find it fascinating that, here we are in 2016, and high on the agenda i

churchill and roosevelt were arguing by cablegram back and forth. it had been agreed by the scientists involved that this would become a joint project because the british had engaged in research earlier than the americans. it was also agreed that the significant final words should be and our country for security reasons because britain and 1942 and 1943 was still in a precarious state. this and scientists to this country to work with us and it was to be agreed that this was completely cooperative joint venture. as time went on, the americans were beginning to pull back and not sharing everything that they knew with their british counterpart. this infuriated churchill and we began to get a number of very poignant telegrams from churchill to roosevelt which came through us. this lack of promised cooperation. i began to be aware of the manhattan project because of the quarrel with these men about what degree of cooperation there would be. >> when you would give roosevelt a document, did he ever write on it. you tell whether he had read what was handed

give theou would documents, would roosevelt ever write on it? messages, ifhe they were safe, they would come back to us for filing in the library. not always. get some, we would wishes in their own words passed saw aand i rarely longhand note from fdr. occasionally, we would have some. >> tells about the role that you played in changing the seal.dential fiel congress created a wwii.tar rank for the army and navy came up with flags. roosevelt saw them and was not happy. admirals and generals with five stars? my flag only has four. the presidential flag would appear to be outranked. this is the sort of thing that would get him very upset. rery tiny things would get fd upset, if they affected the navy. many chosen for the navy. he insisted on the name of every new vessel in world war ii, a phenomenal waste of time for the commander-in-chief. you have been the assistant secretary of the navy in world war i. he referred to, "my navy." once said, "the army is also yours, don't forget that." these stories come our way all the time. fdr told his naval a

one deals with eleanor roosevelt. the question is eleanor roosevelt is considered the universal declaration of human rights, one of the greatest achievements of her life. ways did she affect the organization and the course of its progress? 1948,n: no question, in her contribution to the universal declaration of human rights was probably the most important contribution she made to the world. it is an emblematic document with profound influence across the globe. in 1945,eresting that, when her husband was trying to formulated, she was actually behind the scenes, helping him, pushing him on the idea. she did not participate in san francisco or as part of the delegation to san francisco. which shebutions, for is known, came in 1948, the universal declaration. she also served on a u.n. delegation under president and 1962. 1961 she has had a longtime involvement in the u.n. remembered for her extraordinary contributions in 1948. friends i told my two that once i was at the truman library. they showed me letters between trum

he was very close to frank and eleanor roosevelt and eleanor roosevelt -- franklin delano roosevelt and eleanor roosevelt. franklin roosevelt was really important to getting projects with the navy. henry kaiser had a plant for small aircraft carriers that the navy didn't want, but fdr said that sounded like a good idea, and they built them and they were very successful. eleanor roosevelt was trusted with the homefront stuff, entrusted with how women were treated, childcare, health care. here is a photograph of her at a ship launching in the northwest. here she is, visiting the hospital. she was really impressed with the health care offered in the hospital for the workers. so she corresponded with the founding physician, sidney garfield. she was interested in the details of the health plan. he wrote back, saying, here is how it works. here's the benefits. here's what we learned. there was a close relationship between washington and the shipyards, because this was all federal money. they had to make washington happy, but also kaiser wanted to make washington happy. this was a smart move.

. >> this year marks the 75th anniversary of president roosevelt's fourn freedoms speech. we are joined by the director of the fdr presidential library and museum. what was the four freedoms speech? paul: it was an opportunity for him to try to explain why america should care about the war that was raging in europe and that was raging in the east, in asia. it was a way to look to the future and say what are we going ?o be fighting for the four freedoms, freedom of speech and expression, freedom of religion, freedom from want, and freedom from fear, are the divide democracy from the dictatorships running rampant at that time in the world. the american public at that point was still fairly isolationist. they did not win to get involved in the european war. they were still angry about the fact they had not been repaid the loans of world war i. roosevelt was trying to help them understand that it was a global world, global village. and he was addressing what would enjoy their ability to these freedoms that are so vital to democracy. >> it is called the four freedoms speech. re

gave roosevelt a document, did he write on it? george: usually the messages, if they were from church or stalin, would come back to us for filing. they are now in the library, of course. not always. sometimes he would give an answer to admiral labor he -- admiral leahy, who would sometimes put in what they thought was fdr's wishes in their own words and passed to us. we were aware of what was going on. i very rarely saw a longhand to note from fdr. occasionally we had some but it was not normal. >> tell us about what role you played in changing the presidential field created -- presidential seal. george: in late 1944 congress passed a law, creating the five star rank for the senior admirals and generals of world war ii. in due course the army, military, and navy came up with designs for these new officers. roosevelt saw and was not at all .appy my flag only has four stars. flag wouldntial appear to be out ranked by military flags. this is the sort of thing that can get very upset. very tiny things could get fdr upset. like many of

generated the four freedoms park in roosevelt island. foundation for what the world came to think of as the essential freedoms. it motivated eleanor roosevelt to form the foundation of that seminal document in the postwar world. your website mentions fdr went through some seven drafts of this. do youyou think -- what think was his inspiration for these four freedoms? tom's sparrow: the first in from spray should was the first of many men. in addition to his page and religion, and petition and things that were hard for people to understand in contemporary society. he wanted to draw from the strength of the first of been meant that the government could not interfere with these core freedoms. wanted to expand that so you had this freedom from want. people should not starve to death. the government has responsibility. freedom from here in that the government should not just be able to invade countries. people should be able to live and a safe and secure world. pending ofe under his thought of global peace and why he created the united nation

there were times when roosevelt and clementina warned him-- the interesting thing was that stalin hated churchill. that was never going to be a very from the relationship and that cause many pulp-- problems we needed russia on the side and they needed to be around to help fight the war. she raised close to $500 million for her aid to russia because the country was completely bankrupt. a bit like a sort of early flag day, anything. this money she raised, she sent to russia to reequip. even stalin was astonished at this achievement, absolutely astonished that she had done this, so he invited her to russia in april 1945, and they met on their own at the kremlin and he gave her this very sort of prestigious commonest honor, badge. it gave her permanent russian pension and free travel all over russia not that she ever had any use for that, but she actually negotiated with stalin on her own. again, quite extraordinary. no other prime minister's wife, i mean, it would be impossible and yet this meeting was extraordinary and yet. >> news was coming out of poland by this point, so she was actual

roosevelt would take this game 58 to 28. jordan: most years when a team moves up a class, you can struggles as they adjust to better competition. someone forgot to tell the indianola girls! the lady indians have moved up to #2 in the 5a rankings and are the only undefeated team left in the class! indianola after lucky win #13 taking on lincoln... 1st half, indians up big, and they go to their bread and butter. grace berg underneath. she gets the hoop and the hack! then it's berg on defense coming up with the steal, she gets it ahead to maddie glascock goes off the glass and in for two more! rails answer back, ellie jensen drops in the jumper. then it's jensen in the paint, gets the bucket to fall again. but it was too much indianola tonight. berg is just a beast underneath. this is not the same play, this is three different baskets. all with the same result. she had 22 points at halftime, didn't play the rest of the game. indians move to jordan: . knoxville welcoming some of its greatest athletes tonight fourth quarter, lady

i said, franklin roosevelt. said, franklin roosevelt? i said, yes. he caused us to win world war ii. the guy continued to express that he was shocked. father, almost lost his temper. wasaid, franklin roosevelt elected by the american people four times. a set ofad served with conservative people in the war who hated roosevelt. supposed roosevelt was hated by the american people. far from it. did go to that school because my mother successfully restrained my father. i grew up in a wonderful household. family. i would hardly call myself a rags to riches story. in that sex, i'm not sure i'm the classic american dream. but i feel incredibly lucky to have had the set of opportunities that i have had. it makes me want to give something back to the country and that is why i have wanted to be in public service and to work in government. >> hello. i am larry summers. >> david rubenstein. >> david petraeus. >> i am watching wall street week. >> i watch wall street week. i'm pleased to be on the brand-new wall street week. i hope you are, too. >> wall street wee

but then roosevelt was a very strong -- franklin roosevelt was a very strong leader. he could identify problems and did an extraordinary job of supporting the country. legislationnd acted in the 1930's. that was fun leadership and a time of economic emergency. i think teddy roosevelt was a strong leader, a strong president. he speaks softly and carry a big stick -- that was the prominent legacy he gave us. roosevelt was strong in the international sense. as rough united states into the forefront as a world power, it is also interesting to note that although he was a blustery man, he led the country into a period of relatively peace and stability. lincoln, of course, was a strong leader. personalityce of and determination, he preserved the union when all the odds were against him. that was a strong leader. wasnhower, in my judgment, an extraordinarily strong presence. sometimes it takes strength just to maintain administration. to understand things are going well and you don't have to change them. in any case, there is a different quality of leadership. the one common

and with the world at war, as the president roosevelt opened a

states theodore roosevelt.s cousin franklin roosevelt look over the premises. since the days of the roosevelt's united states and china have had a good relationship. roosevelt negotiated the russo japanese war in 1905. an freckle roosevelt was allied with china against japan in world war ii. private equity funds. invested in chinese telecoms and other companies here. and it now focuses on the china consumption story. incomeeve in disposable will increase. the spending power of the chinese is slowing. how does that affect how you invest. we are very concerned about the currency. we import many things. it will increase our costs. one of their biggest ventures is importing fine wines. his wine cellar houses the prized personal collections of some notable names. sherry: we are also counting down to the opening in india. it will be watching tech giant infosys which is just moments away from announcing its third-quarter results. that's get the latest from our correspondent in mumbai. >> infosys will report dollar rev

[laughter] >> but an assassination conspiracy stories seem to have a sort of a special resonance and people get excited and interesting in that

he was roosevelt's bodyguard. and he was in and out of tehran and he was on the ground during this whole operation, he and mention the lot, and let me -- i will give one example. there was one particular german operative, frans meyer was the s.s. guy, the s and station chief in iran before the war, before the war began, and picked up all the threads, gotta hold, bernhardt schulz, is out there in iran at that time. and this guy who is a press attache at the polish embassy in tehran, he end ed up teaching at berkeley, he wrote a lot about that period and i am using bear as an example, e-mails occasionally in this room. got an e-mail from this guy named randolph churchill, he really is the grandson of winston churchill. hooked up with the churchill society, the curator at chart well e-mailing her and facebook friends out there. he calls me bills alike call him randolph. we have something here, and chartwell. the iron cross was given to my grandfather, was taken off of a german who was captured in tehran at the time o

the chairman through the rest of roosevelt's presidency. he was a banker from utah who had come to a kind of view by himself as a banker in the west who had begun as a republican who but come to realize in this crisis one needed to act and act quite firmly to spur recovery. so he had some rounds of roosevelt's point of of view and supported his policy through the federal reserve, through the bretton woods act of 1944 and 45. forty-five. even when some of the regional banks were not a supportive period : >> >> >> welcome to this wonderful talk. today we have an assistant professor at the university school of information and also founded microsoft research india is talk today will be communication because here at m.i.t. the mono is let us build technology it is a heresy in some ways in the book is named period curacy so that is interesting because it provokes important conversations because it is important to think how we design the technology that best way we can.

roosevelt and hoover were very close. roosevelt and truman were not close. and so eisenhower comes in they are close again. and jfk is not close with jfk for a very good reason. hoover's new boss would be jfk's brother. and hoover had a habit of detail -- are bypassing the attorney general to deal with the president. he was very close with johnson. he had a strange relationship with nixon. but still fairly close. it depends on the president. he didn't like truman. he actually undermined truman in many ways. >> when hoover died his longtime companion destroyed a lot of his personal records. charles: there's a famous secret file of jaeger hoover. his office files. this was a clever way he got around fbi files being subject to court discovery, motions, the lawyer would ask for the fbi to release the file. hoover would say well the official file contains nothing. that document was not in the official file. it was in his office files. and that's what was destroyed. the other one survived. that is how he operated. >> thank you dr. charles for being with us this ev

but then roosevelt was a very strong -- franklin roosevelt was a very strong leader. he could identify problems and did an extraordinary job of

roosevelt. we are both big bernie sanders' fans. and i was wondering, the thing that bernie sanders trying to do is break up the big banks, start a work program like bernie sanders is talking about. would f.d.r. be considered a socialist? and i would like to hear your comments. guest: it's a very good question. one could say that f.d.r. in some ways was a democratic socialist, although that term socialism seems repugnant to many people due to the cold war context that it was used. the word people like to use is progressivism. f.d.r. is somebody who very much after rnie sanders, went ig companies and trusts. water power and the like. i don't think it's wrong to compare what bernie sanders' message to what franklin roosevelt was saying. he was standing to what used to be called the forgotten man and woman of america of the the difference is f.d.r. had been secretary of the navy during world war i and was an activist in that role and had great military experience, foreign policy experience to a deg

roosevelt spoke the fundamental truth at the heart of what the monuments men mission was.id whatever these paintings may have been to men, and women, who looked at them generations back, today they are not only works of art. today they are symbols of the human spirit, symbols of the world the human spirit has made. as we saw in the film president eisenhower said, these are ideals for which the war was fought. thank you, ann eisenhower, for honoring us with our presence today as well. [ applause ]. the men and women of the monuments fine arts and archives section were charged with a staggering responsibility by general is, then general eisenhower. across a whole world set ablaze construction against the last thrashes of the nazi's neoism that was the charge. ranging thousands of miles, operating with few resources and little direct authority, the monuments men often relied more on their own grit, ingenuity and power of persuasion than other things. as just a handful on of men and women, and i emphasize women, were nephew more than a few hundred, they fought to rescue millio

the leaders of the former two, churchill and roosevelt had met several times. they met in washington a couple times, met in quebec and casa blanca. they wanted to get together with stalin and have a big-3 summit conference having everybody together in the same room to discuss the strategy for defeatinging the third reich. -- defeating -- i had access to the diplomatic cables running between the three guys and i excerpted them into a conversation or more argument. roosevelt said, you know, joe, we would like to get together. why don't you and i meet in alaska. joe said no. churchill and roosevelt got together and asked stalin we will be meeting in cairo. why don't you come down and meet with us there? and joe said no. churchill got biblical and talked about setting up three tents in the desert in iraq and having each one of the big three in the tent and have their meeting there. and joe said no. joe wanted to meet in iran because it was close to the soviet union. and he wanted to meet close to the soviet union because there were people inside his government that

and roosevelt by this time had died. and truman was president. and harry truman and the first few months of -- had much too much to think about to worry about a simple matter of a presidential flag. but by september '45, there was time for him to be given such a chore as this. and he quickly approved design. thought it looked great and so on navy day october 27th, 1945, when the aircraft carrier was named dedicated in the name of frankly d. roosevelt, the new presidential flag was hoisted and shown to the public for the first time. i've always had a -- some feeling of a little pleasure about this. hundreds of men and women worked in the white house. they come and go and can work there hearts out literally but presidential assistants just don't leave anything behind to show what they did. well, that was one thing, one thing i left behind, survived, because the same flag today exists, changed only by the addition of stars for hawaii and alaska. every time you see the president of the united states on television, you'll see him behind a lectern and
