you've got peggy lee, lawrence know, maybe phil jackson for roosevelt, i guess i could say i chose roosevelt, but really, he chose me. to write initially about theodore roosevelt's formative time in the these two years as a rancher and a cowboy wher recovered in nature from the depression he suffered wife and mother. and i knew, of course, of bambi and, connie mitty, alice and they'd ner been the central character of any book. they're a in the background or surrounding and supporting. my i found these tremendous letters. i mean, everywhere i turned, bambi wasadvice to her younger brother or outlet for this impulsive personality or mitty who's been completely writtenis absolutely in his life, is actually sour a personality. so i just i was 20 years in media and when know got story i said this deserves be told and i donhink that i've ever heard it before and so off i. so it found you. it found me. and i ha stand the shoulders of some extraordinary before me. dr. dalton, who wrote for my money best single volume biographyf theodore roosevelt a strenuous life. she had spent 40 year tr. her ph.d.

and so theodore roosevelt. the fourth arranged for a call with, the senator during the omnibus negotiations 2020, slightly intense time. and we got a few minutes with the senator and he said, look at it. don't don't pitch me on this. i love the idea of a tr library. i just have one question where new york is the library? and we said, well it's in d, not ny. it's far, a little farther west western western new york. and he's long pause and said, i'm going to have to call you back. it was a very tense 24 hours. and eventually we got the word that they supported it. the short answer there were any number of efforts to memorialize theodore roosevelt, a theodore roosevelt national park, the preservation of sagamore hill, the boyhood home. but he predated the presidential library system. so there have been thoughts to potentially have it in the. but we were very fortunate to have it in the west. and we invite you all to come to north dakota in 2026 or beyond and enjoy the tr library and connect. i don't want to take u

roosevelt realized that a larger was at hand. while his sympathies lay with the countries being overrun, the axis powers america's isolate in his mood limited his freedom to respond. the country's neutrality act prevented. the sale of american weapons to warring nations. there was little he could do at congress for authority and funds sufficient to manufacture munitions and was supplies of many kinds to be turned over to those nations which are now in actual with an aggressor nation. our most useful and immediate role is to as an arsenal for as well as for ourselves. we should send an ever increasing number ship planes and gun. that is our purpose and our. on december 7th, 1941, debate over american in world war two ended abruptly when japan staged a surprise attack on pearl harbor. the united. japanese that attacked pearl harbor, hawaii president roosevelt, as just announced that also was made on all naval and military activities. and the principal of oahu. december seven and 1941. a date which william in infamy united of americ

you do that as franklin roosevelt did. you have constant press conferences where you are not afraid of any questions that are going to be asked. you stay on top of the public opinion polls. you travel the country and you don't just talk, you listen. in roosevelt's case, he sends eleanor all over the country. she comes back. here's what people in arizona are thinking, here's what people in michigan are thinking. there is always formation gathering context and the state of mind, so that when he decides where things needs to go -- need to go, he has the public sentiment agreeing with him on where things need to go. that chapter on roosevelt and how he went about moving public sentiment from isolationism in the 1930's toward being ready, willing and able to fight world war ii, knowing that if they didn't, hitler would probably take over the world is a master class in effective communication . >> let's hear from lori, calling on the democrats line. good morning. >> good morning. i was wondering about the situation in chile in 1

theodore roosevelt junior had a very back command persona, and that didn't. that was up to snuff with somebody who spit and polished as george patton was. and omar bradley thought he got a little bit too comfortable and perhaps a little bit too cozy and laid back with some of the soldiers. and there wasn't that sort of rigid discipline that makes a good soldier a soldier. and so he was removed from command in the first infantry division, but he wasn't down and out, and he landed a spot as the assistant commander in the fonfantry division in the immediately prior to the normandy invasion and rose about pleaded with his commander, neral raymond tubby barton. that was his name, his nickname. ande s just unceasing. and, you know, he wanted to go ashore with his men. and rt finally and barton realized at that moment that this is probably going to be the end of this general. his health was failing. he was suffering from chest pains and he wasn't telling anybody about it. he had very bad arthritis. his mobility in some cases was very but nonetheless, he went ashoh t

and franklin roosevelt himself replied. both republican leaders have bitterly fought and blocked the forward surge of average men and women in their pursuit of happiness. let us not be deluded that overnight those leaders have become the friends of average men and women. you know, he continued, very few of us are that gullible. and four years later, when the republicans that trick again, franklin roosevelt asked, can the old guard pass itself off as the new deal. i think not. we have all seen many marble stunts in the circus, but no performer being elephant head per handspring without falling flat on its back. the 1980 republican convention was a war with crocodile tears for our economic distress. but it is by their long record and not their recent words that you shall know them. the same republican who are talking about the crisis of have nominated a man once said, and i quote, unemployment insurance is prepaid. vacation plan for freeloaders. and that nominee is no friend of labor. the same republicans who are talking the

so world war two really corresponds the time of the roosevelt court.but some of the roosevelt justices, of course, including black and douglas, you know, served for a considerable period of time. but there was a sort of very great turnover, very quickly, the legacy of the court. on the other hand, in my view was very long and all, you know, the areas we were talking about where the supreme court recognized protected constitutional rights in self conscious contrast to our enemies those became very cornerstones of the supreme court's jurisprudence for many decades so just as examples skinner versus oklahoma, the compulsory sterilizing law. it was the first time the supreme court recognized a fundamental liberty interest in the decision about whether to a child or not. and it became a very influential opinion. it is cited in versus wade and other reproductive cases. and of course now we have dobbs and the dissent turns in dobbs and dobbs decision that overruled roe versus wade. the dissenters in dobbs specifically point to skinner, oklahoma, as one of the

in addition, roosevelt, when he convinced isolationist circles, and here it is important to say thatan even stated that if... the soviet union defeats germany, we must help germany, if germany defeats the soviet union, we must help the soviet union, let them kill each other as long as possible. that politician was harry truman. so ruzeld convinced: if your neighbor’s house is on fire, and you have a garden hose, lend it to your neighbor before your house catches fire, when the fire is extinguished, the neighbor will return the hose to you, and if it turns out to be damaged, he will pay for it when he saves up some money. it's clear, conviction, but nevertheless, this idea that a neighbor’s house is burning and that just... sitting with your hands folded while it burns is a completely unacceptable thing, roosevelt had this, as you also quite rightly noted, a completely sincere conviction, i must say that roosevelt’s position certainly played a big role at the tehran conference, when at some point stalin simply presented his negotiating partners with a choice: either the negotiations e

and thatronald reagan, has no right to quote roosevelt. the great advances whichr is a voyage into the past. progress is our heritage, theirs. what is right us as democrats is also right way for democrats to win. the commitment ieek not outworn views, old valueswill never wear out progress which may sometimes beco obsolete. but the ideal of fairness always en circa and stances may change. o continue. it is surely correct that we cannot solve problems throwing money at them. but it is also correct that we dare not throw out our national problems. on pure scrap heap of inattention, indifference. thelitical fashion, but they are not without human needs. the middle class be angry, but they have not lost the dream that all cannot band together. to demand the demandin 1980 is not for smaller government, bigger government, for better bu government. some say that gornnt is always and that spending for basic social ot of our economic evils. but weinflation and recession, cost our economy $200 billion a year. we reply. inflat unemployment are the bi

however, for the sake of objectivity, here we are talking about the attempts of both stalin and rooseveltbjectivity we still need to indicate here and that thought. which a number of researchers express, they believe that if we talk about 1942, they believe that most likely this attempt to open a second front on the european continent was unsuccessful for two reasons, well, firstly, according to these researchers, and these are generally military historians and experts, they believe that... the allies at that time did not have an overwhelming advantage in aviation, that is, they could not dominate the entire field of military operations, here is the second argument, this is also a very important argument, that by the forty -second year the wehrmacht was not yet exhausted, so... here is a military historian, a very famous military historian, alexey valerievich isaev, he showed, that was worth the money, yes, relatively few explosive components supplied by lindlease allowed the soviet union to produce high-yield shells, because soviet similar factories that produced these chemicals were los

roosevelt longworth was always doing something and they asked teddy if he couldn't. he said, i can either run the country or control alice and i choose to run the country. do both can do both. but. but the position so this now starts professionalize and the the important too is she got her husband agree that this needed to be in the federal to pay for this position and it helped mrs. roosevelt now manage the social and at the same time remember she she was overseeing a mass of reconstruction of the white house. this is the creation of an executive wing we now know is the west wing. later there was an oval office that was added because. she needed all of that space in. the white house for her family. prior to that, the office, the residence were all in one place. and so so things start to change with that and it really changes the dynamics of the entire white house complex. was that controversial you said it had be approved by congress. i'm curious like how that was received improved by her husband because it was appropriation form for the white house. i mean, i think

discussions between churchill, roosevelt, and stalin.fascinating discussion betweens% them in 19. stalin and churchill are , typically roosevelt is moderating. stalin is seeking a guarantee from the british that germany will not be allowed to rise and invade the ussr a third time, having done so twice in this century. a military bargain here, the red wi gthey advance from the west. compress germany between two fronts, achieve total defeat of germany. but what will guarantee russia that this will not happen again? and churchill says while the fact we are here together, we have mutual interest, should constitute a guaranty. we are all talking about the same military operation. we were present assurance. stalin demands a guarantee. churchill finally says stalin, no guarantees possible. nothing is final. the world goes on. all we can do here in tehran is make the world safe for 50 years. 1943 to 19 52. two generations in power to follow, 25 plus 25, will have one thought. that is avoiding the last war. and 1992, a new generation will come al

franklin delano roosevelt. he was our longest-serving president, elected to for conservative terms as president of the united states before term limits were established by constitutional amendment and in every day of his 13 years as president, franklin roosevelt was in a wheelchair. the same wheelchair he was in in his two terms as governor of new york. franklin roosevelt lost the ability to walk when he was struck by polio at age 39. so, no, standing for 90 minutes is not a presidential job requirement. and what did franklin roosevelt do in his wheelchair? he did more things than any president before him or sense, including winning world war ii. adolf hitler was a younger, healthier man than franklin roosevelt, but from his wheelchair president franklin delano roosevelt forced adolf hitler in berlin to commit suicide in his bunker as the allies commanded by general dwight eisenhower were closing in on the german capital city. hitler could stand for 90 minutes. he did it all the time. 90 minutes was a short spe
