this is sid meyers. sid is a legend -- well, that will be determined later, i think.vertising business and he was a senior art director for ddb in 1964 and was a key player in the daisy girl spot and he is joined here with some of thinks colleagues with the new firm. chuck schroeder and his wife bonnie are here as well, i hope you can visit them and talk with him. these are the original madmen that you are seeing right here. so, we will watch the spot, the daisy girls spot that was shown only once as a paid ad. >> one, two, three, four, five, seven, six, six, eight, nine, nine -- ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one. these are the stakes. to make a world in which all of god's children can live or to go into the dark, we must either love each other or we must die. vote for president johnson on november 3rd, the stakes are too high to stay home. >> it never mentions goldwater's image, they didn't have to because his position was already embedded in the viewer's minds, they did not need to provide that information. in the following week, dthe followi

sid milkis's book on the 1912 election, absolutely everyone should read. on the way over here i was remembering the series of books. some of you may be old enough to remember them. they were history books for kids called landmark books that i think random house put together. for some reason a blurb on the back always stayed in my head. anyone who has not feasted upon them has been cheated. well, anyone who has not feasted upon sid's book about the 1912 election has been cheated. when you hear what he has to say, you'll know why you must go out and buy it. jim ceaser is absolutely brilliant, and i find myself disagreeing with jim, but it is highly risky because he's so damn smart. forgive the "damn" on c-span. yet i try to live dangerously. but it's a real honor to be with sid. john halpin has done exceptional work at cap. liberals not surprisingly are not nearly as good as conservatives are in remembering, honoring and thinking about their own tradition. i think by their very nature conservatives are more inclined to think of what a tradition means. what j

and yet i try to live dangerously but it's a real honor to be with sid. john halpin has done exceptional work at cap. liberals not surprisingly are not nearly as good as conservatives are in remembering, honoring and thinking about their own tradition. i think by very nature conservatives are more inclined to think of what a tradition means. what john has done at cap, i think is truly important and i want to salute him and also his colleague. finally, matt spalding and i have also had a running argument for many years over the social gospel movement back in the turn of the century. so i feel -- and he has done some great work on that even though we don't always agree. and so what you have here are a whole lot of people obsessed with america in the 1912, and we will try to show how that is entirely related to america in 2012. it is the centennial of that great election, and this election may be as important as that one was. and so i just want to thank everyone, and they know what the order is. i think sid is going next. >> good afternoon, everybody. thanks

it was suggesting that as sid suggests that t.r. was hoping to capture the insurgency and sort of moderate it, yeah, channel it away from -- i mean, he wasn't necessarily thinking of running as a full-on challenger to taft at the time, although he kept, you know, dropping these horrible comments about the taft administration. he was hoping to sort of use this occasion to say, okay, i'm one of you guys. and we can now keep this progressive sent iiment within e republican channel. did you have a follow-up? >> would it be possible perhaps for president obama in a browne analogy that would be something along the lines of for the tea party? after me, the deluge. >> there was a part of my remarks when i thought i had 20 minutes on the cutting floor which talked about his deafening silence on john browne. it would seem to me that the first african-american president ought to make a statement about john browne, lincoln and the declaration of independence. and he mentions occupy wall street and perhaps he could have done with that what teddy

. >> dad, this is sid. >> hello, sid. >> hi. what's up, bro? >> don't ever do that to me again. going to see your grandparents, scott auntie esther is going to watch you. >> what is going on is a family matter. sid won't be interesting in meeting your grandparents, he will be bored stiff. >> dad, i told you he would be with me. i'll be a lot more civil with him around. >> what can i say? >> okay, david. i loved it what did you think, is this going to win best actor? >> i don't know. "the artist "might sweep. clooney p p clooney's performance, a handsome smoocher, he put you in the ides of march. here he is playing a guy who is kind of twisted, estranged from his family, estranged from hawaiian culture, a workaholic, everything that george clooney is not and frankly, i didn't quite buy it, but i love the effort, i love the performance, made me laugh all the way through. i loved the movie, i talked to more people who hate it, i don't quite understand why. >> let's talk about we only have a minute, i loved "the help" i think viola davis will win best actress. always great to have y

the first is sid talked about the problem with the term "public option." and i do think that we are -- those of us who respect the progressive tradition actually also respect the word "public." and i'd actually like to defend the word "public." a few phrases. public schools, public libraries, public health, public responsibility, public service. i think if you are a progressive, you argue that not all of life is private. that there are public responsibilities and that there are joys in public responsibilities. one of my favorite lines from any book of political philosophy is in mike sandell's first book where he concludes, "when politics goes well, we can know a good and common that we cannot know alone." and i think that is the heart of the progressive promise. i think 2012 could actually be as exciting and interesting as 1912 even if, i will concede freely, we will not have characters quite like teddy roosevelt, woodrow wilson, william howard taft and eugene. but i think it is as important as 1912 because every candidate -- i just came back from iowa yes

they use, as sid mentioned, the administrative power of government to do a lot of things they want. the actual social and industrial justice agenda, most people around going to challenge the minimum wage. they're not going to challenge a lot of the social protections that were set up there. so i think obama's quite wisely setting himself up as a defender of the most popular aspects of government against what he sees as a much more radical assault on the progressive air in some ways. so if it's obama protecting a vision of government post-1910 and somebody defending it pre-1910, obama's going to win that fight. and think that's why he set it up this way. as mr. rove outlined in his article today in "the wall street journal," republicans around dumb and they're not going to fall for this. they're not going to argue, i would imagine they won't, against the wisdom of teddy roosevelt's new nationalism and they're going to argue about obama's stewardship of the economy and go after his agenda whether it's on health care or stimulus or the things like that. the other thing that's interesti

sid, would you stand up and raise your hand? this is sid meyers. a legend -- >> [inaudible] [laughter] >> well, that'll be determined later, i think. sid is a legend in the advertising business, and he was a senior art director for ddb in 1964 and was a key player in the creation of the daisy girl spot and some of the others that you'll see in a moment. he's joined here with some of his colleagues with the new firm they've created, chuck schroeder, ed giles and don, and sid's wife bonnie is here as well, so i hope you'll get a chance to visit with him and talk to him. these are the original mad men you're seeing. we're going to watch the daisy girl spot that was shown one time, only once, it was a paid ad. >> one, two, three, four, five, seven, six, six, eight, nine -- >> 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0. >> these are the stakes: to make a world in which all of god's children to live or to go into the dark. we must either love each other, or we must die. >> vote for president johnson on november 3rd. the stakes are too high for you to stay home. >>

poor sid.y: and this is one of your great characters, from the movie "true romance." drexel spivey. that's great. >> that was done -- there's a story behind this. >> jimmy: what is the story behind this? >> i was filming -- i was doing a movie called "romeo's bleeding." and i was out in the desert on sunday night. and monday morning, we went back to l.a. and i started playing that guy. and tony scott, who directed the movie, had not seen me. we had only spoken over the phone. and i said, let me put a little something together. i'll put the -- i went to the guy who made the wigs for "dracula." and he made me that thing in act 8 hours. and i got gold teeth. and i got an eye, one of the eyes from dracula, a milky eye and a scar. and i arrived on set. and tony took one look at me and said, yep, yep, yep. okay. sit there. and then, we were off. but i was already morphing. at the very end of "romeo's bleeding," there's a shot where i walk from a diner to a gas pump. and if you look closely, i've alre

a pursuit and sid. the officer was joined by another unit. she pursued the suspect vehicle as it began driving through red lights at a high rate of speed. the suspect vehicle driver continued through four police districts with a blatant disregard for the law. the suspect driver lost control of the car in the parking lot of the recreation center. the other suspect in the car climbed into the rear seat of a suspect vehicle. officer hayes noticed this as the car was coming to an abrupt stop after the collision. she noticed a muzzle flash. she was slowing per vehicle and broadcasting the movements. she managed to transition her gun to her weaker hand and returned fire to the suspect. the heavily wooded area provided the suspects the ability to evade capture. the officers searched the area and found a fully loaded handgun outside of the project a vehicle. in conclusion at great risk to result in in defense of the public in general, officer hayes' vigilant pursuit of two violent felons even after being shot at is being awarded the bronze medal of v
