president theodore roosevelt made 160 recess appointments. and an inter-session that lasted a millisecond. bang, bang. >> i'm not sure it's a proper use when in a millisecond, the next session was going to be available. so that was established. the third issue and the one that mort addresses is the question of whether the recess appointment clause applies to intra-session resayss, like, you know, this is the 112th congress. the custom now is first section, second session, each one lasting roughly a year. each starting on january third. now, i think the most persuasive arguments made against the validity of action such as those the president took recently would go to the question of whether there any valid intrasession recess appointments. at the end of not persuaded that there is any such limitation, i think the arguments are quite powerful. and one reason that they're not is that the whole notion of session is very vague in the constitution. peter speaks about the fact that this says "the recess" as if there is one. but there can be many ses

just a little over 100 years ago on august 31st, 1910, former president theodore roosevelt mounted a kitchen table on the grounds of the 22-acre state park. he was helping to dedicate john brown state park and delivered what has gone down in history as his new nationalism speech. it certainly wouldn't have gone down in history as his john brown speech since the fiery abolitionist who h battled pro-slavery raiders on that spot in the days of bloody kansas snagged only two cursory mentioned in t.r.'s speech, much to the relief of his advisers i should add who knew that t.r. was one of those politicians who also regarded himself as something of a historian, although the corporations of the day weren't about to pay him fo. it would be described as george mowrey as, quote, the most radical speech ever given by an ex-president. his concepts of by which a powerful federal government could regulate and use private property in the interest of the whole and his declarations about labor and viewed through the eyes of 1910 were nothing short of revolutionary. on december 6th, 2011, president bar

obviously, i would hold up, i think, theodore roosevelt as the better model. and it is true that, in a sense, gerald ford and ronald reagan sort of broke the divorce barrier in presidential politics. before that time, it was largely assumed that if you had a divorce, you were out of the running. it just wasn't possible. with that said, obviously a broader shift in values took place in the '60s and '70s. for example, it used to be common, i know, at least in the lutheran church if a pastor was divorced, it was a career-ending move. he was going to go have to find other work than being a parish pastor. today divorced pastors say that actually is a benefit, because it allows them to become better counselors. so -- i don't think that's true. but it just shows to a broader shift in the culture and the acceptability of divorce. which still as late as the early '60s was still something of a scandal atapped attached to it. today it's an -- it's an underlying shift in values in the '60s. i think it's starting to be thought through again. there's a lot of bad ideas just

picking up on javitz and ancestors, even if theodore roosevelt is a distant ancestor to president obama, there's an effort at making him an ancestor. and so i wonder if you could all comment on another missed opportunity which is theodore roosevelt laid the basis for dealing with the abuses of money and politics and apart from rhetorical flourishes all of which i share about citizens united, where is the emphasis on finding ways of changing the system so the missed opportunity is in dealing with some of the political democracy deficits that we have from money and politics? >> just very briefly, everybody is talking about what wasn't in the speech and the omissions they cared about. that was the omission that really struck me. is because t.r. had such strong language about this in the original speech. in citizens united in some ways is a repudiation of a system that started when t.r. was president back in the -- when we passed tillman act. i think in 1907. so that there was i thought an opportunity for him to address this concern, which also by the way is a concern of occupy wall street.

in 1910 theodore roosevelt delivered his new nationalism speech. last year, president obama went to the same kansas town in which roosevelt made his speech and spoke about his political philosophy and the u.s. economy. it was hosted by the hudson

edith roosevelt wanted and theodore voez velt wanted it to invoke its sort of colonial roots. so it's a very federal, formal white house. the beautiful pillars. the great entryway. the new grand staircase that she put in. it also helps to bolster -- the roosevelts brought in what's the imperial presidency. a much more regal, formal, worldwide presidency. this is when america moves into the greater world as a power. and this white house was built to command respect for that and show the power of that presidency. and mrs. roosevelt was in charge of the decoration of that white house. >> and she added a first ladies portrait gallery? >> she did. she consolidated the portraits of the first ladies. commissioned hers to be added to it and established a first ladies portrait gallery on the ground floor of the white house. >> politically, policiwise, what is she known for? >> she's a first lady that steps away from policy. she certainly is someone that can restrain her husband and i'm sure had words to say to her husband and opinions. but she keeps very private with them. she had a yo

he was also named theodore roosevelt. either way it does belong to the family. one of the first things we asked ourselves is does this sound like it look that roosevelt would own? and it is a book about hunting and fishing, and it is called sporting themes and country characters. it is all about outdoor life so yes, he probably did own it at one time. >> the one of the things that i find most interesting is when people who used to own the material names are left notes in the book. you get fascinating stories about the people. we have one book on, is there life after death basically is the topic, and it was owned by a woman who lives here in town. she had written rant take notes all through the book, desperately hoping, apparently from her knows she had lost a child and she was hoping desperately that she would be able to see her child once again and that her child was existing somewhere. it was just heartbreaking reading her notes. you get a little glimpse of what life was like. we looked her up in the city directory across the hall in the archives and apparentl

united states could monitor these these missiles many in the united states and just like the views of theodore postol he maintains that the european missile defense system is ineffective the scientist estimates that it has no chance of protecting the united states from a rainy and missiles instead it creates problems for russia if russia believes the fence is not needed but it doesn't pose a theoretical frappe russia. my guess is that the russian government will say ok if you want to spend your national treasure this will help you so it solves the political problem and it provides a much more capable defense than with the united states currently building in goods of them all so much cheaper. the professor believes that the purpose of nato is radar in europe is to track the movements of russian strategic weapons and to monitor russia's new military technologies. the real target could be russia but certainly it makes the people of europe less safe it draws them in in fact as a geo strategic quine by great powers as they maneuver and use the missile defense shield not as a way to defend your not

theodore labuza. the production of wine from grapes is a fermentation process. in this case, we take grape juice, which contains sugars, and add a yeast. in the ancient days, they didn't add yeast. they didn't know what yeast was, but there's naturally present yeast on the grape skins itself. under the right temperature conditio, yeast will ferment the sugars, produce alcohol, and the alcohol prevents the growth of other microbes that would spoil it. under improper conditions, you would get something god-awful, not a good cabernet sauvignon. food is shipped around the world and across america. the rates of food spoilage, rates of reaction, are vital knowledge for our global economy. a far-off country like new zealand, for example, is almost wholly dependent on overseas markets for its lamb and butter and cheese. how do scientists study food spoilage and preservation? reactions that cause food spoilage aren't different from what chemists study in pure chemical solutions. i always say about food-- it's the study of messy chemistry. i say that because in a food whi

so i would like to point out that, start with theodore roosevelt. virtue all of our presidents that have ip league educations are the ones who are elected of right truman and johnson are sort of accidents being vice president. but those roosevelts went to harvard. taft went to yale. herbert went to stanford. even jimmy carter was an outside figure i tended and applets. and richard nixon went to tiny whittier college. he goes to duke law school, becoming a wall street lawyer and is passed back to the white house. this is why ronald reagan is so interesting. a tiny ago place. more importantly if you study the reagan story, really close i think what you see is like harry truman, who didn't finish college, only modern president didn't have a college degree, they both owe their particular political imagination to the own self-education. reagan's case it's hollywood and traffic around the country for ge when he's reading the classics of the american cursive movement, he's reading and quoting speeches. is doing all that on his own. i think it's possible re

i would like to point out that if you start with theodore roosevelt, virtually all of our presidents had ivy league educations or equipment others elected in their own right, truman and johnson are accidents of being vice president, it? but you know, but roosevelt went to harvard and yale, herbert hoover is from stanford, calvin coolidge is from and hearst. even jimmy carter that is an outside figure attended annapolis, and richard nixon, but he does penance why that by going to do call school and becoming a wall street lawyer as his path back to the white house. and this is why if ronald reagan is interesting. he goes to eureka college, tiny little place and if you study closely what you can see it's like harry truman who didn't finish college, only modern president didn't have a college degree, they both of their particular political the machinations or their own self education. in ronald reagan's defense case it is the years in hollywood and traveling around the country when he's reading of the early modern classics of the american conservative movement whitaker chambers witness,

first, okay, that's good theodore roosevelt. he can be fairly labeling the the first onlily pro-life and pro-family president. aggregates of his biographers, most recently edwin morris, largely ignored. u.s. president from 1901 to 1909, roosevelt clearly identified the foes, his word, of the american family. the practice of willful sterility in marriage, by which he meant birth control and abortion, was a capital sin against civilization, he said. a practice that meant national death. he held liberal reentinterpreta, he blasted birth control and expressed the linkage between family creation and americanism. if you do not believe in your own people enough to bear larger families, then you are not good americans and you are not patriots. and i for one shall not mourn your extinction. and in such event, i shall welcome the advent of a new race that will take your place, because you will have shown that you are not fit to cumber the ground. mr. roosevelt condemned as fools those "professional" feminists who labeled wives and mothers

has an excellent book showing how the the new england transcendental is philosophers people like theodore parker they supplied a lot of the ideas that animated lincoln and for example inspired his sketches were good dress which acas and a number of significant ways. i stress in that book the german americans were hugely important fact of life at this time there was a massive immigration of hundreds of thousands of germans partly anomic migrants but also refugees from. the revolution of eight hundred forty eight blocks of course of been one of the revolutionaries of eight hundred forty eight and they had quite an influence on the republican party on the struggle against slavery and they also brought a new ideas like both the women or the organization of kindergarden another thing that they did is they established breweries. and produced beer and really this they united radicalism with a rather tolerant attitude towards. the whole and the previous rather british period clinical radicalism which had been anti slavery very very much disapproved of of drink and alcohol and supported temperance

i've been on aircraft carriers ranging from uss midway to theodore roosevelt to carl vinson to this great historical warship. i certainly have a perspective of spending. this is my 11th deployment that i'm going on. i think this debate will continue to happen. listen, as an aviator, i get how the defense is. it is to build and operate an aircraft carrier, but i will tell you that as i look at enterprise from where it is right now, 50 years of service to this nation, look at what its capabilities were when we sent it out in 1962 to support the cuban missile crisis when it fought so bravely in vietnam, the cold war and what the capabilities and how we grew from an f-4 fighter mindset to an f-14 long-range defense capability to now where we're operating f-18 super hornets off the deck now. the point is this aircraft carrier like all of our aircraft carriers can change in capability and be modernized. that's what you get with the size, the flexibility, the speed of what you get with a cdsc. so from my perspective, the aircraft carrier is still not -- still not only brings together its power a

every year it started in 1919, and one of its founders was theodore vail, a former at&t president. you may remember junior achievement from when you were in school. but the program has changed with the times. yes, students still learn money management and entrepreneurial skills, but they also learn how to get a job after graduation. it's understandable many students are concerned about making money and getting a good job. but a recent j.a. survey found some depressing results: less than half of teens nationwide are "very confident" they will someday have their dream job. more troubling-- 71% would give up that dream job to make more money. >> as a parent, that's troubling to me that there's this focus on the financial aspect of it. >> reporter: whatever the student's career goal, junior achievement still relies on legions of volunteers to teach in classrooms. but it's had a tough time finding enough of them to meet demand. so now, j.a. has started recruiting high school students who have been through the program. >> i'm a strong believer that if you can explain something else to a

they don't know who theodore roosevelt was, they know he was president but they have a very vague idea of what he did or why he was somebody of importance, so they want to read a book or they want to see the documentary on television. and i think some of the movies that have come along have been very effective. i think we human beings are by nature interested in history. i just think it's part of our human nature. we want to know what happened before. once upon a time long, long ago the children's stories begin. the two most popular movies of all-time, well, not necessarily historically accurate, are historical in spirit and in setting and the rest "gone with the wind" and "titanic" that's i think a very important measure. tom hanks is now going to be producing a big multi-hour movie for television of my book "john adams." and tom hanks is a very solid and conscientious man with great integrity and taste, and i expect that that movie will reach people in a way that maybe nothing else could. and hundred times more than any book of mine might or other authors. and if it's done right, tha
