truman. it took two days for him to respond. today it will take about two minutes. >> harry truman was such an icon, they had to pick their words very carefully. >> so let's watch. >> last saturday one of our most dedicated and courageous presidents gave the nation his views on the forthcoming democratic convention. in as much as mr. truman's remarks were directed at me, i'm taking this opportunity to respond to his statement. first, mr. truman suggested that i step aside as a candidate in 1960. hen let me say i do not intend to step aside at anyone's request. i wi i was the only candidate to risk my chances in all the primaries. the only one to visit every state. i have encountered and survived every kind of hazard and opposition, and i do not intend to withdraw my name now on the eve of the convention. secondly, mr. truman asserted that the convention would be controlled or prearranged. in response let me say to the extent that i have anything to do with it, it will be an open convention. a

one is harry truman, a devout baptist. but you don't think truman because of his salty language, right? by the way, you won't find in most of the big biographies of troutman people get there will be david mccullough, the year both doorstops, and they tread very lightly on his religious sensibilities to find out a great story about truman -- and i mention this in the book who wrote a terrific book about harry truman's foreign policy and the development of with the use to call the liberal internationalism but she's fleshed out much better than anybody come and i never noticed this, the fact that he regards the soviet union as an evil one player and evil because of their atheism coming and talking about his disappointment that he couldn't get our church organizations involved in talking about the process and principles of american foreign policy and the catholic church in all the major the nominations in the semi formal at jugs to american foreign policy and the education of the american public and overseas so it is overlooke

you won't find this in most of the big biographies about truman. good biographies, david mccullough, and they tread very lightly on his religious sensibilities to really find out the great story about truman, i mentioned this in the book, wrote a terrific book about harry truman foreign policy and development of what we used to call liberal internationalism. she flushed out much better than anybody, the fact that he regarded the soviet union as an evil empire because of their atheism, and talking about his disappointment that he couldn't get more church organizations involved in talking about the premises and principles of american foreign policy. he wanted the catholic church and all the major denominations, semi formal adjunct to american foreign policy, education of the american public and overseas. and so read the speeches that up and forgotten, it's quite astonishing. he read the bible pretty often. [inaudible] >> he stopped attending first baptist when he was the first president represented in the vatican spent that's right. i had forgotten t

truman fired him. brought him home, and the war continued on until its conclusion a few years later. now, we, today, have the benefit of hindsight and there are people today who would argue that had macarthur been allowed to pursue the war as aggressively as he wished, to go on in and invade china, that we would not be seeing the -- the geopolitical influences that are there today, between north and south korea. but you have to remember at the time that all this was occurring, five years after the end of world war ii, and was this country, was the world, ready to go into another potentially worldwide conflict over north and south korea? >> since i took the oath on the plain at west point and the hopes and dreams have long since vanished, but i still remember the refrain of one of the most popular barrack ballads of that day, which proclaimed most proudly that old soldier never dies. they just fade away. and like the old soldier of that ballad, i now close my military career and just fade away. an old s

>> they were southerners who had begun to oppose truman because truman's earlier stand on civil rights especially that year and they were the southern segregationists, i believe there were something like 17 states were involved total, but mississippi and the carolinas and alabama were some of the -- you know, the front people. and they were -- they just did not want any talk of civil rights. and they wanted truman to defeat it and so they put up their own candidate. >> where did you get that -- i know you talked about all the video. where did you get that black and white video we just saw? >> it's mostly universal newsreels almost entirely, which is a great collection at national archive in college park. it's public domain, so it's wonderful resource. but there's also the shot of him on the podium and some of the shots of the crowd, the minnesota crowd, came from a man from south minneapolis who had 16 millimeter camera and he shot just -- he must have run -- he must have run out of something, it was a crank camera, i'm sure, and he shot a few seconds of him on the podium and a few oth

certainly since the publication of his book on truman. what his secret is, i'm not quite so sure i could answer it. if i knew it, i would do it. i think it's in part that he writes wonderfully well. it's in part that he has tremendous empathy for the period and for the people he's writing about. it's in part that he never forgets the biography of history has to be told as a story. it has to be told as a story so you can read them as if you were reading a novel with a beginning and a middle and an end and a continuous story that pulls you along. that sounds obvious, but probably 90% of the history of the biography that is published is not readable as a story. >> what's his next project? >> i'm not at liberty to say that. unfortunately something only that david mccollough could tell you. but whatever it is he could tell us. >> and you'll edit it. >> yes. >> do you have a favorite david mccollough story? >> well, my favorite david mccollough story is that he sent me the most wonderful picture taken at his house in maine with a lovely handwri

it is sixty five years since president harry truman defined america's far reaching foreign goals and some politicians still resort of bashing the bogeyman to score political points. plus a fight for the green fields of nepal we reported while food giant offered to help boost the country's cross to truck and local farmers for years to come. anger has flared up in spain once again as thousands fled into the streets to protest against tough government cuts and the recently passed new labels spanish unions staged mass rallies in sixty countries they say the labor reform designed to revitalize the economy will actually undermine workers and cut their rights when you go was work cleared by parliament just last week and will make firing employees easier and cheaper spain's jobless rate is the highest in the eurozone with almost half of its young population unemployed however while the government struggles to stay in the single currency there is a town that's already going back to the good old days. feeling of that year he didn't name and it's no surprise that in some places currency of know

instead of truman.ing -- we still don't know, but judging on his policies on certain things he was well to the left of most democrats including roosevelt himself. so they were very nervous. and this was all known to the generation that was around during the second world war. it's barely talked about today, this particular episode. in history. when did you discover the -- >> it was peter who made me aware of it. yeah. he'd studied henry wall lace all his life. it was a movie unto itself. he was mr. smith goes to washington. he was naive, he was a jimmy stuart quality, he didn't drink, didn't smoke, didn't hang out with old decisions, he used to study foreign languages and stuff like that. but he was an interesting, beautiful man. and, actually, he was a very successful capitalist -- >> thank you. [laughter] >> and an enlightened one, agricultural expert. and it actually came down to one night in july of 1944. we document that pretty accurately. pretty scary moment when, you know, he was about nine second

he would have been president instead of truman.that would have made, we still don't know but judging from the policies, he was well to the left of most democrats, and including roosevelt himself. so they were very nervous, and this was known to the generation that was around during the second world war. it's then he talked about today this particular episode in his discover wallace? >> he studied henry wallace all his life. it's a cool story. it's a movie on to itself. he was mr. smith goes to washington. he was naive, he wasn't jimmy stewart quality. she didn't drink, didn't smoke coming he used to study foreign languages and stuff like that. but he was an interesting and beautiful man, and actually was >> thank you. [laughter] and an enlightened one, very expert. be that as it may, it was a very dirty business, and it's actually come down to one night in july in 1944. we document that pretty accurately, pretty scary at the moment when he is about nine seconds away from being nominated when they cut the lights and cut the power. t

truman selected him not because of his experience but because he was marshall. >> there's nothing that i can say at this time regarding matters that pertain to my position in the state department, but i assume the duties with a great -- with a feeling of great responsibility, a very earnest desire to carry out the foreign policy of this government in the manner that has been so splendidly exemplified by my predecessor, mr. byrnes, my old friend. >> the new secretary brought imagination and a dignified intensity to his job which was equal to the world challenge. in march 1947 marshall headed a delegation to moscow whose mission was the peace agreement on germany and austria. the opportunity to observe the russian bear in his native environment was valuable in view of increasing soviet hostility. russia already loomed as the largest question mark in america's future. the desperate economic plight of europe drew marshall's whole attention upon his return, and his recommendations were presented to the congress. >> europe is still emerging from the devastation and dislocation of the most de

fdr and truman. there was no content in the pentagon papers that called into question mr. nixon's leadership or his own kind of decisions, all right? he could have let this go by as an enormous leak, certainly, but a leak and treated it in a standard perspective. but he drew attention to the issue first with the attempt to suppress the document which invoked first amendment disputes and freedom of the press issues that were guaranteed to be explosive in american society and moved the conversation up to the level of the united states supreme court where, in fact, it was found against him, and, second, when he could not achieve what he wanted on the surface, he resorted to subterranean techniques, most particularly starting a plumbers unit within the white house which was actually the first how should i say, active move in the creation of the colossus of subterranean forces that acted throughout the watergate period and undermined his own leadership and presidency, ultimately forcing him to resign. so in a very real sense you can trace the downfall of richard nixon to the ac

but then, of course, president truman, he approved dropping of an atomic bomb on hiroshima, and that, of course, ended the war, so we actually never did have to deploy to the pacific and fly that mission. >> well, sir, you bring up the dropping of the atomic bomb. certainly that -- >> i'm sorry? >> you bring up the dropping of the atomic bomb, and certainly all of you gentlemen could reflect on that. what is your opinion on the decision to drop the atomic bomb? certainly something controversial today. was it as controversial in 1945? >> it took a lot of courage on the part of president truman to go ahead because he recognized that there was a good chance that once that bomb was dropped that the japanese would surrender, and that's what happened. so as it turned out, he made a gutsy decision and turned out to be a good decision because the war was over. >> mr. yellin, did you want to comment as well? >> i was over japan strafing in august 6th, 1945, and when i got back to iwo jima, i was told he jumped on my wing and said we dropped one bomb and wiped out a city and it's over. i said w

>> it took a lot of courage on the part of president truman to go ahead. because he recognized there was a good chance once that bomb was dropped that the japanese would surrender and that's what happened. so as it turned out, he made a gutsy decision and turned out to be a good decision. and the war was over. >> do you want to comment, as well? >> i was over japan on august 6th, 1945, and when i got back to iwo jima, he jumped on my wing and said we dropped one bomb and wiped out a city and it's over. i said what are you smoking? i want some. i've been asked that question many times. in 1988, my youngest son married the daughter of a japanese imperial air force fighter pilot. and i've been to japan many times. i had been a debriefing about bombing japan or invading japan which was going to start in november of 1945. our squadron was going to land, be the first squadron in. they expected 1 million casualties. the americans expected 1 million casualties. our intelligence told us that they had 2,000 airplanes and that they were going to do kamikaze flights.

president truman presented marshall with the distinguished service medal in 1945. although millions of americans gave america extraordinary service, marshall gave it victory. 1945 also saw marshall dispatched to china as the president's special representative to negotiate a truce between chiang kai-shek and the communists. general eisenhower, then chief of staff, visited his former boss during the negotiation. this was the first time marshall officially functioned as a diplomat, and the role was not unfamiliar. although the army had been his profession his interest had always been his career. marshall received the oath of office as secretary of state from chief justice vincent early in 1947. the president enthusiastically endorsed the former chief of staff at a critical time in history. it was fairly said that mr. truman selected him not because of his experience, but because he was marshall. >> there is nothing that i can say at this time regarding matters that pertain to my position in the state department, but i assume the duties with a great feeling of great re

on russian energy eagerness to protect the world from russia's influence seems to president harry truman speech which arguably heralded the start of the cold war. the united states. but for people who are resisting it the. right pressure is one of the leading presidential contenders me one me went as far as this i think that president bush represents a real threat to the. stability and peace of the world and only say many american politicians and mastered the art of creating and bashing boogyman especially when election campaigns are underway during the cold war for example being hard on communism was considered a litmus test for a solid trustworthy politician and he got on both sides of the ocean with all this i suppose the third say that it's some kind of cold war inertia but there's a desire to. speak tough talk tough when it comes to foreign policy in order to sell your campaign to the wider population in the among the most hardline anti russian politicians are those will also create unilateralism in foreign policy which means the u.s. can and will decide what every tree of this for

when harry truman campaigned for a comprehensive health program in 1945, he told congress, and i quote, millions of our citizens do not now have a full measure of opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health. millions do not now have protection or security against the economic effects of sickness. but president truman's pleas for health security fell victim to the politics of the day, and scares about socialized medicine. dwight eisenhower came before the congress in 1955 and said that health insurance could be improved by expanding the scope of the benefits provided. john f. kennedy proposed expanding coverage to the elderly and the mentally ill. by the early 1960s, both presidents eisenhower and kennedy could not say that their hopes of health security had gone forward. but instead they saw, once again, the familiar sight of a dream of health security being stalled by outside interest groups and partisan bickering in the congress. then came presidents lyndon johns johnson, richard nixon and jimmy carter. there was progress made on medicare and medicaid. president nixon came forward w

of harry truman, one of our heroes across the country, there's no harry trumans in the republican party right now. republicans are afraid of rush limbaugh. afraid of him. let's listen. >> mr. boehner comes out and says, rush's language was inappropriate. using the salad fork for your entree is inappropriate. it is the responsibility of conservatives to police the right in its excesses just these liberals failingly fail to police the excesses on their own side, and it was depressing because what it indicates is that the republican leaders are afraid of rush limbaugh. they want to bomb iran, but they are afraid of rush limbaugh. >> they want to bomb iran, but they are afraid of the guy on the radio. providing the perfect example of george will's point. mitt romney was asked about limbaugh's comments on a rope line late friday night. let's listen to his response. >> it's not the language i would have used. i'm focusing on the issues that are significant for the country today. that's why i'm here talking about jobs in ohio. >> senator, you mentioned earlier that you have three potential opp

harry truman was also widely believed to be a partisan politics but also was someone she saw greatness in and became a friend and ally of his as well so even when fdr died she went to work in the civil service commission and did very many things for truman on the loyalty review board including voting out communists in the federal government before they got into trouble. this is a woman obviously who did many things. at the end of her life, she looked back at her life and the thing she was the proudest of was the creation of social security. and indeed that really is remarkable. 50 million people the latest figures came out on the unemployment insurance and set a record 5 million people now are on unemployment insurance. if we didn't have that 55 million people in the united states getting that income now we would be in a much more serious bad place than we are now as we face another bad downturn. so frances perkins handiwork is even more important today than it has been for the last several decades and is a remarkable person. she didn't do it for glory. she said to felix frankfurter wh

this has been an issue that did not start with truman.upport really came back as far as woodrow wilson for determination. when truman did recognize it, it came six months after the united nations general assembly. this was the u.n. acts -- one of the first acts since being founded. also, when truman recognized israel, he imposed an embargo of arms. the united states gave no arms to help israel be established in 1948. in 1963 when john f. kennedy gave hawk, surface to air missiles. it was truman, certainly, that was important. but it was not decisive in any way. you talked to arab colleagues of mine, they say that war was won on the ground. i think, respectively, i would have to disagree with the caller. host: continue to go back, let's look ahead. is that a viable option in the middle east? guest: you need a two state solution that gives dignity to both sides. the president laid out some ideas. i think, while the president has been preoccupied with other issues as of late, i think that ultimately there will come around back to the two sta

as harry truman understood, israel's story is one of hope. we may not agree on every single issue. no two nations do. our democracies contain a vibrant diversity. we agree on the big things. things that matter. together we are working to build a better world. one where people can live free from fear, one where peace is founded upon justice. one where our children can know a future that is more hopeful than the present. there is no shortage of speech on the friendship between the united states and israel. i'm also mindful of the proverb a man is judged by his deeds, not his words. if you want to know where my heart lies, look no further than what i have done. to stand up for israel, to secure both of our countries, and to see that the rough waters of our time lead to a peaceful and prosperous shore. thank you very much, everybody. god bless you. god bless the people of israel. god bless the united states of america.

i have never understood and perhaps you can enlighten me, on why president truman did not strongly object to the french re-colonizing southeast asia after world war ii when they threatened the dutch that they were going to cut off marshall aid if he didn't get out of indonesia and they did. why did we tolerate the french giving birth to another war in southeast asia? it became the siege of the american involvement in our tragedy. general hon and i, when we met in hanoi we talked for several hours. went to dinner together with some of his officers. and the general, historian, and now his boss who was a brigadier general during the battle. as strange as it may seem, general hon and i became friends. we were together for several days. hotel together, ate together. good interpreter. he was sick with a respiratory infection and i was, too, and i gave him some of my medicine. he got better and i got better. and we resolved after that trip back to the battlefield in 1993 in october of the attempt to get the vietnamese government to erect a obulist on the clearing at mannings zone x-ray which wou

truman had to become president before anyone told him we had the bomb. we went a country so possessive of our nuclear advantage we wanted to be the only ones in the world not only with nuclear weapons but nuclear power and we were going to buy all the uranium to make that so. under my beloved president eisenhower en hower we went from that possessive, keep the genie in the bottle country to a country that exported nuclear technology all over the world. that's what adams for peace was about. nuclear technology and nuclear material. it was supposed to be for peaceful purposes, just for energy. but science tisk industrial technology that we exported around the globe is what ech eventually israel, india and pakistan turned in to full-fledged nuclear weapons programs. what started as us having nuclear weapons and then us in the sovt yoen and us, the soviet union, brits, french and chinese and then the us, the soviets brit, french, chinese, israel and pakistan and during the bush administration we added north korea too. this is who in the world has nuclear wea

what has clearly proven to be in nailbiting super tuesday is our cbs five political consultant joe truman. one thing is certain, romney is not invincible. but given this win tonight, jim santorum winning national election? >> anything is possible but if you're doing with probability and likelihood, the likelihood of santorum getting the nomination at this point is something you have to question. he's clearly established himself as the alternative to mitt romney, more so than gingrich thinks he can be, but as the set for the last couple months that we have talked about this. santorum's path and nomination to the white house still relies on convincing republican voters that are socially conservative candidate is the desirable choice for november. that romney says that they should pick someone who moderate voters and independents should go for and that is me. in chicago and other places, i think that indicates that its messages getting through. and that means they can do more money and if the message out to voters. but then they say if we do an etiological member, then we lose the vote. >> y

more recently he's been campaigning as harry truman running against the do-nothing congress and he might think in hard times someone mentioned he would go as a good democrat and appeal to franklin roosevelt who famously criticized the money change in the temple and yet in the making, the president goes toes on watt omy and believe me nobody goes there for no good reason. >> so there he gives what i think will be a defining speech in the administration or as e.j. says the inaugural address obama never gave. >> i think that this establishes that he's given up on american politics and he's doubled down the progressive model and this tells where he's coming from and where he is going. >> it's the question posed by the prre the formal progressive revolted against was that america was different or in the context that we tal about it and america's eeptial it's dedicated to universal right. we're often as equal and we are down to the life and the pursuit of happiness. this principle in the constitution law are the foundaons of the american dream. it makes possible the dynamic social order in whi

we have companions for ronald reagan coming out and a companion for harry truman and other presidents and the idea of partnering a book with the presidential library and bringing scholars together to discuss historiography as well as important aspects of these presidents and demand their presidencies. what i will do is to talk a bit about the historiography of the civil rights program of the nixon administration and to start you off with the quotation. this is nixon in 1973 when the historical record of the first four years is written, i am confident that it will show that this administration did far more in the fields of civil rights and equal opportunity than its critics were willing to admit. it's more evident to sustain that claim. the nixon administration implemented affirmative action for minority-owned businesses and it desegregated southern schools and approved an expanded voting rights act and informed federal policy. the president also courted conservative white southerners and he strongly opposed bussing. as a result, the white house' approach to civil rights was garland an

[ laughter ] >> i want to start today this symposium that is a very important and wonderful symposium on the role of intelligence in the reagan administration by looking at the main question of that era. and the main question i hope our panel goes and talks about today. and that is the question of how did president reagan get it really right on the big issues? the really big issues? when those of us who worked with him in t

a come pan yor for harry truman and other presidents. the idea of partiering a book with a presidential library and bringing scholars together to discuss history ography as well as other aspects of the presidents and their presidencies. what i'm going to do here is review the historyography of the nixon presidency because there's a strong body of historical literature. there's much evidence to sustain a claim. the nixon administration implemented affirmative action. sanction set asides for minority owned businesses. desegregated southern schools. reformed federal indian policy. yet the president also courted conservative white southerners. and he strongly opposed busing. as a result, the white house's approach to civil rights was, as leonard fwrks arment, liberal nixon adviser recalled, operational progressive but obscured by clouds of retrogreszive rhetoric. what i'm here to do today is review this historyography of the nixon administration. i think we're fortunate because there's a strong body of historical literature where you can see
