and thomas jefferson on the c-span bus with us this morning. so mr. jefferson, let's talk about then the reaction from britain. >> well, it was considered somewhat impolite, unjustified, that all of the colony wills ought come together with the united american representation. his majesties parliament decided to remain separate and that caused keeping us at bay. they worry that had if we came together, well but common accepts, three heads are better than two, that 12, 13 heads collectively would be of a greater influence, a greater safety and defense amongst themselves. so the reaction of the crown of course was to pursue denying us many of the petitions we put forth for redress of our grievances. >> and talk about the declaration of independence and how you came to this and the writing of it. >> i would say first and foremost that the greatest influence that brought me to be able to draft our birthright, our, if you would say, promise of who we are and who we desired to be and our promise to the rest of the world began through that privilege of an edu

thomas jefferson never had the opportunity to do that remodeling. notgovernor's palace is only a symbol of power and authority, it also was a fashion statement. it was here that the columnists -- colonists could come to discover the latest fashions from england. what we're going to do now is give you a tour of the palace with one of our costumed interpreters. >> welcome, welcome. i imagine you are impressed. most everyone is. that is what this century hall is for, to impress anyone coming to see the governor, and to impress them with virginia, the best of these colonies. we do not want to forget that anytime soon. the weapons. i know that you are looking at them. all of the men do. these are -- i suppose, a tradition for our governors here. you go to those big castles over in england, i am told there are weapons on the wall. but these are not the governor's personal weapons. these are all part of virginia's store. they are maintained by our militia. that way when the empire is at work, they can come here, take these down, and use them in virginia's

we will be taking your questions as president thomas jefferson reflects back on his life in 1770's.burg in the mr. president, what brought you to williamsburg? jensen: leftist -- edging -- thomas: education. inas my father's eldest son a family of 10 children and i had three younger brothers and six sisters, but my father passed away when he was 49 and i but 14. i cannot inherit and to my majority at the age of 21 years in 1764, but before that, i was able to benefit by the greatest that this legacy is, not property but an education, so i came to attend the college of our former majesties, king william and queen mary in the 1759 and 1760. i did not receive a degree that was baccalaureate at the time, but i left to read law with mr. george. host: how did that influence you, study law -- studying law? thomas: it was the finest i would ever know. i would put them against edward who, i was a gentleman understood the foundation of the law, of english law. there was a lot of the romans, he understood that law was living and leaving and a close as the people go, that is the essence of the engl

and there's a belief, not to get sidetracked too much, that george washington and thomas jefferson had a spat in writing. and jefferson knew that washington was also a historic figure and didn't want historians to know how bad this got and how angry washington got at him. so who would be in control of washington's letters at his death? who was the last one to see him? tobias lear. and if those letters were to disappear, who would be responsible? and then who would owe who a favor? be tobias lear, so he's going to go in and negotiate the first american victory in war. and without telling eaton, who had plans to take tripoli and take out the leaders who we observed, without any notice, he cuts a deal. actually even cuts a payment. we didn't even free hamid's family. we cut a premature deal. next thing you know, our guys are out, everybody's celebrating, word gets to eaton, you've got to day to hop on the ship, we're done. we've got to go. he's hailed as a hero. he's given huge sections of maine as a reward, but he becomes an alcoholic because he could not rationalize the fact that his ul

and then when we come back, it will be your chance to talk to president thomas jefferson. we'll talk to bill barker who portrays him, he's been portraying him for 22 years at colonial williamsburg, and he will be in character, your chance to ask your questions right after this tour of the capitol. >>> welcome to the capitol building here at colonial williamsburg. the general assembly of the colony of virginia met first at jamestown starting in 1619. they would meet in jamestown for 80 years, finally moving to what was then known as middle plantation and renamed for the king, king william, as williamsburg. by 1704 the capitol building had been built on this spot. this is a reconstruction of the first capitol building. and it would be here from 1704 finally burning down in 1747, rebuilt by 1753 and used until 1779. it is on this spot that founding fathers like patrick henry, george washington and thomas jefferson, learned to be representatives of the people. so while this building is a story of virginia and its history, it is in a far greater sense the history of the entire

east started off the game on a 12-0 run which necessitated a thomas jefferson timeout. they go on to win 69-29 freshman aiden vanderloo led the team with 15 points! 3 council bluffs abraham lincoln and sioux city west playing in the home of the wolverines.1) its 13 to 5 abraham lincoln is up in the 1st quarter. devon logan passes it to kyle crowl, he shoots and hits the three! 2) wolverines turn it over and crowl, with an open shot... hits another. 6 unanswered points. 19 to 5 now.3) but avery brun... from the corner hits the long 2.4) later in the quarter... corenz dunson does the no look pass to noah mcwell. he makes this look easy. its 21- 11 now.5) now fast forward to the 2nd quarter. wolverines behind 28 to 11. samual blakey gives it to mcwell... with a guy in his face... he makes the tri- fect-a.6) a few plays later, dunson but james king recovers it. one hand throws it to mcwell whos open and hits the 3! he was on fire!west would fall though 66-57. 3 to the girls side now thomas jefferson and east.1) a defensive struggle early. here the putback by rylie zyzda giv

patrick henry and thomas jefferson. and have a very orderly design. it was the third-largest building in town. it consisted not only of the building we are standing in, but there was a can now, a scullery, a laundry, kitchen. we know that one governor actually had 5000 models in his cellar. the house today is a reconstructed building on an architectural site. it was open to the public in 1934. since then it has undergone refurbishing and interpretations. one governor arrived in 1774. at the end of that year, lady dunmore gave birth to a daughter. unfortunately, things went sour between the relationship of the governor and the virginians, and in 1775, the governor and his family fled in darkness, never to return again. today, we have furnished the building as accurately as we can. we used primary documents such as inventory taken when the governor died, when an inventory would be taken of personal possessions. we had a letter, also a floor plan. they remodeled the palace into a very detailed floor plan. the capital moved to richmond, virginia, and thom

three years prior, they already proposed the idea to thomas jefferson and said, you give me some gunset together the real ruler and get him in egypt, convince him to come back. jefferson initially said, we didn't have this conversation. we have three years of frustration and then call him up. and texted him. he said, yeah, i'll do your plan. here's 1,000 muskets and $20,000. go do it and goes in egypt and go 500 miles through the desert. take the city and set to take benghazi and tripoli when the leaders say, okay, we give. madison had to go back and finish him off but i want one leader to stand up and say, jefferson did this. jefferson tends to be right. i'll go with him. >> the first time we raised an american flag on foreign soil? >> you read your book. they were determined and emphaticable. >> the lessons we've learned from this historical moment to how it applies today. >> sadly, not only do you have to confront your enemy but finish off your enemy for ultimate victory. sadly, when you look to negotiate and contemplate, it's looked at weakness where strength is looked at with res

then we also have thomas jefferson. the best way to approach this to find out their rationale because your problem is with them. so they go to london as the ambassador of tripoli and jefferson decided he would join adams said his request. they have a great conversation. he is approachable some debate and deal with. he says you can do this and we were charged more than that. but they are horrified and angered to say we cannot fight the lusby fight them for ever. for an american doesn't have the stomach it will only go up. >> we will have a way to borrow the money. with marco rubio the payments are only a little bit late for coat joking. [laughter] now lyon and trouble. and that we cannot keep up. we cannot do this. i am talking about morocco morocco, a tripoli, tunisia, for separate countries that we have deals with all the same mentality with all competition with each other. so sooner or later he takes power. he doesn't say my recommendation but if you read these reports is as we have to stand up for ourselves. so to say

my husband talks to thomas jefferson. aat strikes me as being person who lives in charleston, s.c., one of the senses most interesting to me is the music, the hearing. how much do you work with finding authentic music from calling all times? -- from colonial times? the singer in the tavern was singing songs from the times. could you work with the college of william and mary? do they have a music apartment that would create authentic using? -- music? we got the chance to hear an organ recital but it was not particularly colonial. it seems like you could do more or thatt for parties might be something that would generate revenue and entertain tourists in your town more. i will listen to your response. ted: thank you for your question. that experience in the tavern and hear that washed over the room while you eat an 18th-century meal, this is the experience that draws people here thought terry music is key. sound of 18th-century. valid years that populate our tavern and experience in the tavern. tavern witchery reimagined as

, linda baumgartner our curator started the project whereby she started most of jefferson -- thomas jefferson come to colonial williamsburg reproduced and then it was sent back to the respective museums. we have a bobcat lined cat. it was a reproduction owned by jefferson. it ended up in the natural history museum. a lot of these survived which is wonderful. so you can see how it went together. jefferson from what i discovered is not a very natty dresser. a couple of things survived a at the collection of monticello that were repaired and something that you wouldn't expect. on items owned by the president of the united states. he also suffered from the cold his entire life. at monticello there were several waistcoats lined with old cut-up stockings. because he was always cold. but that's -- this is a virginia bobcat that we -- i think they got it through the state. i think it was the road kill, actually, and now it lines our reproduction cap. this is research and design. what happens here is we developed items for use in the historic area. generally, when you develop a garment for use in the

thomas jefferson wrote in his diary, and wrote letters to other folks describing and recollecting the events of the day. it was certainly a memorable occasion for them. dunmore was not the first and only governor to dissolve the house of burgesses. this was in the governor's prerogative. this incident was a little bit different because as tensions dunmore increasing, really saw this as and a front to his authority, i think, and a challenge to royal authority. the house at that point was really sort of acting in open particularly with their open and vocal support of their countrymen in massachusetts, dunmore felt as the scene per trade that this was intended really to stir the population -- as the scene portrayed, that this was intended to stir the population. and start the population against him. i have lost myself. greta: that is ok. let me ask you this -- at this point in 1774, how long had virginia been a colony and what did that mean? joseph: virginia had been a colony since 1607. that is almost 170 years. so virginia was the first successful, permanent british colony in north ame

we know that thomas jefferson, patrick henry, richard henry lee and others came up into this chamber and borrowed a history book about the british civil wars. one done by a gentleman by the name of rushmore. -- russia words. rushworth. they found one time when parliament declared a day of fasting, resolution and prayer. that would lead to the governor dissolving the house. >> i therefore dissolve the house of burgesses accordingly. god save the king. >> that would be the last complete session of the house before the american revolution. in 1774 no one knew that yet. what became the american revolution was at that point still a tax protest. we will go downstairs and see where these men met as the high court justices. in the general court of the colony of virginia. we are now in the general courtroom. this is where in the 18th century free subjects of his majesty would be tried for various felony crimes. but also the general court would take care of other issues as well. will probate of the greatest states would occur here. in addition, this is where virginians came to sue and be sued.

it should be obvious, the stream and thomas jefferson, there were a lot of anglican leaders who did not think anything of the loyalist argument. interestingly, the division in britain did probably fall closer along denominational lines. most anglicans in britain supported the king. many congregationalists, presbyterians, activists, leaned in the other direction. there were english anglicans who urged parliament to be more conciliatory toward the colonies. there were some who thought the monarchy was acting correctly in trying to put down the rebellion. >> and now jim? jim: james banner. you made a distinction in passing that i would like you to pursue. as a skeptic, i have to be deeply troubled by the application of any sacred text to public affairs, whether the koran or the bible. what is puzzling to me is how i interpret the application of the bible to public affairs, whether sincere or advantageous. you make a distinct which -- disagreements between rhetorical and argumentative application. can you tell us what you mean by that? it may help me not as a historian, but as someone livin

in 1776, benjamin franklin and thomas jefferson were asked to form images for the national seal coming into existence. neither franklin nor jefferson could be considered orthodox paragons. they were not highly regarded. for ther proposal official ceo of the new united states depicted, the israelites, safe crossing of the red sea guided by a pillar of clouds and tiller of fire was described in the book of exit is. after the revolution, it was the same kind of biblical reference it takenalize what place. one of the historians of the revolution in verse described britain's commercial empire as a pharaoh that plagued israel's race and tax them by a law demanding brick, when destitute of straw. new book by suggesting the use of the bible during the revolutionary era precisely influenced the history of the bible and later american history to this present day, but the book itself is devoted to showing how a much longer history going back to the start of the protestant reformation and involving a great deal of british history led quite directly to what happened in this revolutionary era. for a
