historically, terrorists -- harry truman in 1947, the truman doctrine, he declared boldly on the floorongress that we had to invest $409 in greece and turkey to defeat outside forces including terrorist and communist for destabilizing greece. these are people who fought for the independence of greece against the nazis. they became terrorists right away. the word terrorist has been described loosely for any enemy. always terrorists in the woodwork. yes, they are vile. we should track them down. glenn greenwald has been very articulate about this. if you know someone or has connection to terrorism, i think most people would back that. but when you put the whole thing out over the web and you say everybody in the world is potentially suspect, you're making a different kind of world. you're making that horrible world. >> but either way, you're being surveilled. >> yes. you have to prove your innocence, so to speak. i worry about my children and my future. an intelligent manager, as peter said. i don't believe he is an unreasonable man. i don't think he knows exactly what is going on. i fea

we forget that when truman assumes the presidency within three months, his poll numbers were lower than the poll numbers of george w. bush when he left. and labor is furious with him because he's doing -- he's lifting, you know, rent controls and food controls but keeping wage controls on. and so she's to the barricades against it and then she goes to the u.n. and where she is with the boys, as she calls them, and she ends up through a fluke debating the great soviet debater over refugee issues because the guys wanted to talk about the security council and the bomb and nobody wanted to talk about the 40 to 60 million displaced people in europe. and so, from her performance there, 50 of the 51 member nations of the united nations ask her to chair what will become the first united nations commission on human rights and the united states is opposed. and so that we have to -- she has to negotiate that and then she's appointed unanimously and plays the major role in drafting the universal declaration of human rights, with four years of school, i might add. not college. four total. >> and it'

back in harry truman's day, it was truman who launched a campaign against the do-nothing republican congress. he called congress back into a special session to put their votes where their mouths were. when they kept on doing nothing, truman called them the worst congress ever and voters side with them. they reelected in 1448 and at the same time they gave democrats control of the house. it was a seismic gape i gape. 75 seats for democrats that year. president obama tried pretty much the same trick last year, though, while the voters did side with him and did keep democrats in charge of the senate. they also reelected a republican-led house for two more years. whatever their motives, voters in 2012 did not break the gridlock. they sustained it. if you lock at how the district lines are drawn, how the population is distributed in america these days. how mid-term elections tend to favor the party not in the white house. it's hard to see a scenario on the immediate horizon where one party is rewarded with what now is apparently the essential ingrodient to get real things done in washington. tota

you're the one who has to decide what is appropriate and wise, and kennedy remembered what hari truman says, the buck stops here. so he grew and he was skeptical and he had greatest tension with the joint chiefs of staff. he battled with them over the issue of nuclear weapons. >> they -- as you say, both president kennedy and bobby kennedy come off much better than the joint chiefs and many of the advisers. they were pragmatic, cared about politics and argued for military restraint, and both the joint chiefs and people like bundy and macin marry -- mcna mara tarnished their reputation biz their performance in vietnam. why was kennedy better than his advisers? >> well,. >> kennedy was deeply troubled by the fact -- i still teach'm in washington, and these young people 20 years old, they don't have a clue as to hugh frightened and concerned people were in the '50s and '60s about the possibility, indeed even the likelihood, that there could be a nuclear war. kennedy at one point said to somebody, in private, i'd rather my kids be red than dead. he never could have said that in public. but
