the act created the national register of historic places, the list of national historic landmarks, and the state historic preservation offices." those are huge accomplishments. it goes on to say -- "the act was signed into law on october 15, 1966 and is the most far-reaching preservation legislation ever enacted in the united states." the act makes an interesting exercise in reading after a gap of almost half a century. many of its provisions are farsighted and remain the central to this day -- remain essential to this day, but there are things we can still do to move beyond its impressive vision. turning to the act, i would like to read you some bits of it, and coming from my background as a bureaucrat in the department of interior, i have an enormous respect for what it actually says in the law or what congress actually said in their enabling legislation. we often forget some of the adjectives or take a new view that isn't exactly what they intended. enacted by the house and senate of the united states of america and congress assembled, congress finds and declares that the spirit and

the only explicitly proslavery nation ever attempted in a modern world. this is not what former confederates said after the war when they were trying to justify their actions and promote reconciliation. by the end of the 19th century was not expedient or correct for ex-confederates to say it was to defend a slave owner republic. in one of the greatest revisionism's in american history, former confederates miraculously transformed the war into the lost cause, a valiant fight for state rights and constitutional liberty against an overreaching federal government. but their words spoken in the 1890's do not square with what they very clearly and unmistakably said in the 1860's 30 years earlier. when they spoke of abolition as threatening to create an american congo and declared slavery was an economic and social institution so essential to the security of the south they were willing to destroy the nation to preserve it. those who continue to deny this in the face of this overwhelming documentation that slavery was central to the conflict point to the fact that

the idea is they will comfort stricken communities and also a grieving nation. creek site was going to be the first in the national park system to label an event in which federal troops had killed and if visitors would supposedly be able to transcend their own prejudices. this palliative vision, a vision predicated on the idea memorials can allow people to heal, this vision suffused most of the speeches early in the ceremony. but as some of you may know or have a sense, sand creek is a very unlikely source for some of these utp and -- utopian sentiments. voices rejected what they saw as a hollow offer of hand lists -- handless reconciliation. this is eugene little coyote. memorial mighte be a stalking horse for the standing effort to strip tribal peoples of their distinctive identities. so, rather than accepting the site as a symbol of federal power, they per trade the memorial as an emblem of tribal persistence and self-determination. other participants expressed suspicion about the moral for additional reasons. the federal government was unpopular on colorado's

officials by the national security state. and so in addition to all the other things we talked about, if you can -- if you want to do something about these issues, support those people who are doing that thankless work. i guess i'll leave it there. >> thanks, conner. in the spirit of asking experts to articulate issues that are beyond the understanding and the knowledge of laymen and nonlaymen, i thought we might spend a little while talking about usa freedom act and what it does and doesn't do. rand paul, ron widen published an op-ed in the "new york times" criticizing the billing it's conform for its shortcomings. what are those shortcomings and how serious are they for people who care about these issues but also see the necessity of working with the congress we have rather than the one we might wish to have. >> i can rundown and you guys can explain what i just said. the bill purports to end bulk collection. the way they define bulk collection, anything without a discriminator, without a collection term. they now admit the

there the story has basically been the national health insurance compared to other countries were the only ones that don't or didn't have a national health care plan. but what interested us was that the state level, states would try a number of different efforts beginning as far back as the mid-1970s to do three things. first of all, to start pharmacy assistance programs for seniors. secondly, to regulate managed care, which the federal government ever managed to do. and thirdly to offer universal coverage plan to their citizens. and so, it was interesting because you think that the states would be less able to do this than the national government and there would be more controlled by the opponents, by the interest groups that opposed such absurd than you would have even at the national level. so the fact is certainly not all states, but quite a few states manage to do this made it interesting to us. recently our book was entitled against all odds and that is kind of the way the fact that states did anything that i was kind of against all odds. >> host: were some of the state listed o

if the statute at issue here really does reach every malicious use of chemicals anywhere in the nation as the government insist that clearly exceeds congress's limited enumerated powers. this courts cases have made clear that it's a bedrock of our federalist system that congress lacks the general police power to criminalize conduct without regard to a jurisdictional element or some nexus to distinctive federal concern. the president's negotiation and the senate ratification of the treaty with the coordination does not change that bedrock visible of our constitutional system. >> mr. clemente said the treaty is valid. and implementing legislation seems to largely copy the words of the treaty without adding anything. so it's a puzzle that the treaty could be constitutional but the implementing legislation that adds nothing is unconstitunconstit utional. >> justice ginsburg i guess i would quarrel with your premise which is its true the statute use similar terminology but there's one important difference between the convention and the statute and that actually differentiates this case from

the days of empires and the spheres of influence are over. bigger nations must not be allowed to bully the small or impose their will with the barrel of a gun or with masked men taking over buildings. the stroke of a pen can never legitimize the theft of a neighbor's land, so we will not accept russia's occupation of crimea or its violation of ukraine's sovereignty. standee nations will united so that russia's further propagation will only mean further isolation for russia. because after investing so much blood and treasure to bring europe together, how can we allow the dark tactics of the 20th century to define this new century? we stand together because we know that the spirit of warsaw and budapest and prague and thein stretches to wherever longing for freedom stirs in minskhearts, whether in or damascus or pyongyang. wherever people are willing to do the hard work of building have acy, they will partner in our nations. from the struggles of these citizens, we recall our own struggles. in their faces, we see our own. few see this more clearly than the pe

the national wildlife refuge system. and the wilderness act and the federal land policy and management act. the intent of this bill is not to eliminate any of the nepa reviews in the continental united states. the problem we have is the department of state is making a decision that really ought to be federal agencies and even state governments who would need that, if this bill was adopted, it would actually have, if this amendment was adopted it would require state department or a presidential permit and then all the other agencies, so it would make it impossible. the argument for this bill if you're opposed to keystone, then you're allowing literally 1,000 car train of crude oil to come across the border without any of these reviews. a pipeline is inherently safer and that's why we need to bring that crude oil by pipeline from canada to the gulf coast to where our refining capacity is. the amendment would actually expand what's under current law and would make it even harder. the goal of the legislation is to have this n

is this a big victory for voters in ohio and across the nation? t's a huge victory, i mean obviously early voting, disproportionately impacts african-american community of voters and elderly voters and the souls to the poles movement, cuts across state but was gets people out to the voting booth. this is a decision that expands -- reexpands our democracy, remember, they've been trying to cut days and here and there since 2008 presidential election. there's a rich history of state sort of secretaries being involved in the voting processes. remember from 2000 secretary of state florida katharine harris is one who ratified george bush's election as president and that was contested. then brought to the supreme court. ken blackwell, 2004, secretary of state in ohio, was involved in some issues and questions about vote in ohio 2004. a key position which is why state senator nina turner has so much support for this position. the key position when it comes to voting at state level as well as the national level. >> doesn't it focus attention again on not pr

the idea is that these memorials will comfort stricken communities and a grieving nation. the sand creek site was going to be the first unit in the national park system to label an event in which federal troops participated in a massacre. visitors would supposedly be able to transcend their own prejudice. this was predicated on the idea that memorials allow people to heal. this vision diffused most of the speeches early in the ceremony. as some of you may know or already have a sense, sand creek is an unlikely source for these types of utopian sentiments. those ofnting voices, the native people especially, who had participated in a memorialization process, rejected what they saw as a hollow offer of painless reconciliation. these people feared that the sand creek memorial might the day stalking horse for the federal government's long-standing effort to strip tribal peoples of their distinctive identities. rather than excepting the site as a symbol of federal power, they displayed the as anal is in amblin -- emblem of tribal persistence and determination. protested the memor

well i'm a based on what i have read in books and the national media since the beginning of the centennial, i would have to admit that most contemporary americans at best only have a hazy understanding of our nations greatest conquest. after the passage of 150 years and tens and thousands of books on the subject, most americans, remain unaware of what was at stake in 1861 and have little or no concept of what would have happened, how differently american and the world would be today had the confederacy been triumphant. when pressed to explain the meaning of the war, most americans offer vague answers about rights, economics, and slavery. few if any talk about how a system of government was on trial. many americans whose ancestors did not arrive until after the war did not live in a part of the country where the fighting occurred do not see the applicability to them. i was talking the group from oregon who claim they were not doing much in their state to commemorate the civil war. the war was not waged in the pacific northwest, so it is hard to make it relevant, they said. my reply was, wor

custody, and the violation of national security law. we hope for and expect the department's full cooperation. let me be clear up front on the focus of today's hearing. it is not my intention to dive into the circumstances of the disappearance of sergeant bergdahl from his base in 2009. there will be a time and a process for that. i also do not intend to use this hearing to weigh the merits of returning an american soldier to the united states. everyone who wears the uniform should be returned home. however, the detainee transfer raises numerous national security policy and legal questions. the explanations we received from the white house officials at a housewide briefing earlier this week were misleading, and at times blatantly false. this transfer sets a dangerous precedent in negotiating with terrorists. it reverses long-standing u.s. policy and could incentivize other terrorist organizations, including al qaeda, to increase their use of kidnappings of u.s. personnel. it increases risk to our military and civilian personnel serving i
