and so he he that kind of softened his image and i think where you know we're not talking about teddy roosevelt being on a war crime you know trial for war crimes but i think that sort of thing does help your image and it probably will help blair of void these things stephen if we've learned anything nice to gentleman. well we've learned democracies can make mistakes you know we can elect leaders even human democracies have paid the price do they pay them the right is do they pay the price certainly they pay the price of the u.s. government the u.s. society has paid an enormous price for what we're still what about the political climate was not going on the political class they paid. well the political class put paid to i mean bush donnelly destroyed the u.s. in terms of these wars that he forward in iraq and earlier in afghanistan but also in terms of the u.s. economy and we as a result of his incredible errors we have just gone through the worst recession since the great depression so yes democratic societies do pay for the mistakes of their leaders and ivan eland what do you think. well i th

teddy roosevelt's conservation legacy became one of america's most important. [ken salazar] it's important for the people of this country to connect to the landscapes of america. wilderness does that because it shows us the grandeur of our planet, and it's important to preserve that not only because it's important for economic engines, but it's also important for the way that it refuels the american spirit. [narrator] this heritage was defined by the creation of national parks. conservationist and writer wallace stegner called the national parks, "americas best idea". wallace stegner wrote the wilderness letter in 1960. [sandra day o'connor] wallace stegner at the end of his life was disillusioned with how the west had allowed development to overtake its natural beauties and its natural bounty in favor of development. [narrator] wallace stegner described a concept called "the geography of hope". he believed wilderness was necessary even if one never traveled to it. it's important just to know it's there. [robert redford] he saw the wilderness and preservation o

did you know the teddy bear is named after teddy roosevelt? during the bear hunt in which he took part they couldn't find any bears. someone captured a wounded young bear and proposed freeing it to let tr hunt it. instead he had to quickly put it out of the misery. the a jewish woman who ran a brooklyn toy store read about it and made a toy bearand put in the store window. it was a tremendous success. she asked tr if she could name it after him. he agreed and the teddy bear was born. it was used as an republican symbol in the 1994 presidential campaign. as an example of tr's generosity, after winning the noble peace prize, he gave 10% of it or $4 ,000 to the jewish welfare board. during world war i, friend, an irishman in a british army would be the famous lion hunter that was a film made about his life called "ghost in the darkness," i believe. he lead them to victory against palestinian in world war i. the newly created leader was the first organized jewish fighting force in 2,000 years. a volunteer force, it was composed of jewish refew agr

teddy roosevelt said speak softly and carry a big stick. >> the top u.s. commander in south kor has never seen the region as tense as it is right now. concerns prompted a federal prosecutor to case in texas involving a white supremacist gang. the gang is being investigated for the murders of the mcclellands and mark hasse. jay riley was working on a case against 34 members but sent a letter to defense attorneys saying he has stepped down. >> i understand why someone would want to step back, and it makes sense to me. especially people who have families. >> officials didn't specify what the security issue was. a u.s. attorney from d.c. will now take over the case. >> brand-new details about a man suspected of killing a colorado prison chief. it turns out evan evil tampered with his ankle bracelet before that murder took place but it took a parole officer five days to check up on him. one showed up at his house before the murder but eb he l wasn't there. he was let out of prison because of clerical mistakes. he was killed in a shootout with police in texas. t

george washington, thomas jefferson, teddy roosevelt, abe lincoln and william howard taft were joined by a larger than life version of selena mayor. the vice president on tv's "veep" played by julia louis dreyfus. here's a look at the final leg of the relay race. >> george is running second. goes down! george takes out abe! here comes selena myer! she goes to the right field corner! she takes the lead! selena's on the outside, george is on the inside! the winner's going to be -- george! george and tom take the win. and selena and teddy finish a close second. >> i think she gave it to him. anyway, it looks like they're out for novelty since teddy roosevelt's streak of over 100 losses in a row ended in october. finally, rand paul took on the republican effort to reach out to minority voters today in his speech at the great howard university here in town. it's a historically black university. here's a line that sparked a few questions. >> i've never wavered in my support for civil rights or the civil rights act. the dispute, if there is one, has always been about how much of the remedy s

you would make sure that it was safe. 100 years ago, teddy roosevelt was president, and your pipes were brand new. now, our infrastructure is old. 100, 200 years old. it's not been upgraded or fixed or replaced, sometimes, ever. man: if these systems are not maintained, sooner or later they're going to fail. they all have a life expectancy. if you don't maintain them and constantly check them and then do what's necessary to rehabilitate or repair, you're going to have a big problem. and they're going to collapse. they're going to fail. and all of a sudden, the water, or the sewage that normally goes through them, will not have any place to go. it'll back up into homes, it'll back up onto the street. it's normally out of sight, out of mind. once it comes to the surface, it's a whole 'nother animal. melosi: you're talking about system-wide problems that would take tremendous human resources to correct. this is true with drinking water, as well as wastewater. man: first, our top story. thousands of people are without water tonight. woman: a flash flood of the manmade kind. apparently, a 12

world class service so you're talking about the sherman antitrust act in the eighteen eighties teddy roosevelt's trust busting taft even picked that up and carried it forward is that the. but in one thousand i think was eighty two in the early in the reagan administration. essentially stopped in force in the sherman act eight hundred he had been broken up and his it was directed to the justice department led to the explosion of acquisitions or was the m.n.a. frenzy of the early eighty's and michael milken and all these guys rose up and they became the you know the masters universe them in a masters mergers and acquisitions masters. and we don't really we haven't significantly reinforced the sherman act since then in my in my telling history was some accuracy here and if so what do we do about this. you've told the right story it's not just a truss activity though that that's relevant here because it might be that the local cable monopolies would never compete with each other i mean they didn't divide up the country back in the mid ninety's you take sacramento all take san francisco you take minn

with alternative ways where we can escape these oligarchs and monopolies because a less we get a teddy roosevelt who bust up these cartels bust up the banks bust up all these things keeping us from flourishing then where you know we either have to say ok grossman stevie cohen what do i do for a job can i shine your shoes or their stock in general you know they fall in love with their captor and they enjoy being in prison and having lost all their liberty all that the but the but don't cling to their guns as if that's meaningful in some way and then finally even if he gets the job because this is where that if we don't do all these things i suggested to hit reset hitty jack to get rid of the politicians and the banks toure's and the monopolist that control our economy's income growth for bottom ninety percent in america since nine hundred sixty six is dot dot dot fifty nine dollars. so michael krieger starts out remember we got off the gold standard in one nine hundred seventy one after which the federal reserve could print as much as they wanted and distribute it wherever they wanted and they ha

jobs are in their thirty's and forty's and many in many cases even college graduates you know teddy roosevelt one hundred twelve in his square deal speech said that you know we stand for a living wage. means enough to feed the family enough to pay for the home enough to care for children times a sickness enough to put aside a little bit for old age and enough to take a vacation those were his criteria shouldn't people be able to at least do that but that didn't mean that they need to be the cashier at mcdonald's in fact we would want them to achieve higher those kind of bizarre is not in a way you know people who think they're talking about right now are the people that are in cashier workers cleaners janitors those are the ones that are striking and you know what those are minimum wage they those people should want more than just that kind of job and those who do well then why don't that be happy with the minimum wage where they are thirty two years of reaganomics those jobs are growing once again and i mean i remember when i hear goes if i'm right i got my book ready to go then i will i hav

going back teddy roosevelt who defined men who didn't play football as sissees. be in the closet. this has shifted more with recent years with more straight athletes particularly in the nfl, speaking out on behalf of marriage equality and speakinghts of lgtb people. but to have an active player to do this, take this step there are no words for how historic this is. >> dave we're seeing responses athletesp most of all welcoming. but mike wallace from the dolphins have apologized for a tweet that he sent out that said all these beautiful women and to mess with other guys. is tha athletes and most professional s going to be their reaction? or do you think it will mostly be greeted with support and frankly i've seen a lot of even from conservatives on twitter a lot of yawns, they don't think it's a big deal. >> it's one way of moving the goal post. i mean if you can't talk down jason collins, what uz try to do is take the air out of the message. but it's very very encouraging. it's been a abeautiful day to see so many people come forward and give jason collins love i

going back to teddy roosevelt, richard nixon, who created the environmental protection agency, ronaldeagan who got led out of the gasoline, george hw bush going after acid rain. republicans have a history of responsible stewardship of the environment. the hard right turned the party, pivoted away from its path and from conservative care. we make that point in the book. >> in the book, you talk about the house of representatives, focusing on republicans. look at democrats in regards to this. >> they tended to be from fossil fuel states, states reliant on the fuels of the past. we have to continue to invest as a country in renewable fuels and energy efficiency, solar, wind, and make that case while we continue to use a lot of coal in the country, a lot oil, and a lot of gas, we need to be moving closer, not overnight, but over time. >> president obama done enough in regards to environmental regulation and legislation? >> president obama has worked very hard to make progress, but we -- there's a lot more left to be done. a couple quick examples. president obama worked hard with the auto

was malcolm x, bobby kennedy, you had jack kennedy, reagan was shot, you go all the way back to teddy roosevelt was shot and nearly killed, garfield, lincoln. it's almost the relentless killing that gets into the political sphere. the next assassin to come, whether he's coming for a conservative or liberal, is not going to bring a little gun. that's where the level of firepower is right now for the killers. they are going to have with heavy weapons that will not be stopped by a couple of secret service guys that are putting their life on their line. it's going to be hell to pay. republicans can step up and say on a bipartisan basis, somebody shoot me tomorrow, it's not a person who has emotional problems or a wife beater to use an old term. maybe we can't stop the murder rate in this country. we can stop the insanity of letting obvious murders have guns. >> absolutely. chris, ask any inner city cop if they enjoy the fact that they are out there outgunned by people who have military assault-style weapons. it's like they are fighting a war. >> and they have a glock. >> they have to go into a dome

teddy roosevelt viewed free trade is a form of moral degeneration for reasons i can talk about theater. he says thank heavens i'm not a free trader. it seemed to coincide with the fatty degeneration of the moral fiber. what he meant there is a life-size figure philosophy. free trade is the international application of the idea of laissez-faire, purely free market, deregulate everything. that is an idea of a developed take seriously. the united states hasn't taken that seriously for well over 100 years. there is some rhetoric from right-wing people that we believe the massÉ fair. if you believe ronald reagan or richard nixon or george w. bush did in office and try to do, nobody believes them suddenly when you look at our international economic policy, we take the strange theory that died in the 1890s domestically and we certainly true to gospel truth. another thing to make you that maybe there's a real controversy here. i harp on this because free trade gets tuned out by all of the media, most of our political system. it takes a little stage setting to hopefully tissue eyes to take the

there was a president by the name of teddy roosevelt who gave us an axiom how to do it. ronald reagan said through peace and roosevelt, speak softly and carry a big stick. >> sean: and i'm watching, a campaign trail and pressure local legislators because he can't get harry reid to advance the weapons bill and let's see, the russians are flying over our air space with nuclear welcomes. egypt is on the brink of collapsing yet again and he's propping them up with tanks and f-16's and 1.5 billion dollars. syria's in a total decline. iran is saber rattling as well. china is infiltrating our internet system and where is obama on all of these issues? it seem the world does not have any fear that he's going to respond to anything and it seems like he's em boldening them? >> again, the rhetoric has got to -- we keep talking about the north korean rhetoric and what the secretary-general of the united nations was just talking about. what we ought to be doing is quietly reassuring president park, who is brand new, the japanese administration who are uncertain what's going to happen

. >> president obama has been taking a page out of teddy roosevelt's book "speaking softly carrying abig stick." do you think the white house is striking the right tone or should the u.s. be more aggressive and assertive when it comes to the threats from north korea? >> i think they've done a good job on the korean response. so the initial move of interceptors, things that could shoot down missiles out west, it was about a year too late but i'm glad they did it. the fact that they were showing that we have military capabilities that we could have to engage in a conflict like this and we're using it i thought that was absolutely appropriate. and then the next step here is we have got to engage china. if china -- china wants, they can stop all of that fuel in the black market fuel purchases going across the chinese and north korean border. haven't really stepped up to do that so we can show that we have the strength and resolve that we will not tolerate threats of nuclear exchange or military attack to the united states. thought that was handled well. let's step up our diplomatic effort

>> teddy roosevelt. the beginning of the 20th century. he formally changed the main to the more informal white house. at the same time that his wife is taking the house back to its more formal style and side. >> is it true that some of the exterior was painted white after the fire from the british, to cover scorch marks? that is when it began. >> it was informally referred to -- the man on the street did not refer to it as the executive mansion. teddy roosevelt made it official. >> a call from catherine in rockville, maryland. >> just wondering, was louisa ever, worker rights ever violated and wanted to do about it? >> what are you thinking of? >> social or things like her speaking out for what she believed in. >> this is a great restaurant to talk about what role women really had in society at this point in time in america. isshe is not political, she not speaking out politically the way that abigail did with husband. she is not a public political figure speaking out on these things. she has her own private views on some things. her view

united states could have repudiated free trade for so long, been an a protectionist company, and teddy rooseveltviewed free trade as a form of moral degeneration for reasons to talk about later. no, he did. he says thank helps i'm not a free trader, that seems to coincide with a fatty degeneration of immoral fiber m i think he met it's a la -- laissez faire, and the idea of laissez faire, deregulate everything. that's an idea that no developed country takes seriously domestically. the united states has not taken that idea seriously in our domestic economic policy for well over a hundred years. there's rhetoric from right wing people that we believe in laissez faire, and look at nixon or what george w. bush did in office and tried to do, nobody believes in it, and, yet, suddenly, when you look at the international economic policy, you take this strange theory that died in the robber barren era of the 1890s, domestically, and suddenly, it's treated like gospel truth, so another thing to wake you up on the controversy, and i harp on this because free trade is the perceived opinion spooned out by al

less -- it was nevertheless a pleasure, a special pleasure because the navy league has its, as teddy roosevelt called, never been more important to the country and to world security and it yesterday. as they great dr. johnson said, nothing concentrates the mind like that prospect of hanging. and today the senior leaders of our naval services really need the help of clear thinking and dialogue, and this forum is unique. as i look about today and i saw earlier the quality of the people that we have attending from industry, from the public at large, and from the services, there has never been a more important opportunity to take advantage of the three days a you have here to really think through and debate the best approaches to carry out what the navy league was established to do, which is to communicate to the american people the importance of the sea services and what we can do to help carry that message and get through this time of crisis to see that we are not permanently set on a different course than this country's great destiny. today we're going to do is have each of our panelists to let
