and when president warren harding, william brandt to be the assistant attorney general of the united states, she other women in this country had only the right to vote for nine months and suddenly she's the most powerful woman in the country. just to back up a little bit with her background during her last semester at school at the university of southern california, she worked pro-bono in the courts and she had an exclusively female client. and she had a particular focus on prostitution. you know it really bothered her that these women would get arrested for prostitution and they would have to be dragged in court. it would be embarrassing and mortifying. and the men the johns had to show up in court. so she utilized a little known provision that required the men to show up in court, and she made sure that they had to be there just as often as the actual women who are being arrested. she also would advise her clients, madams, on how to get out of the business. one of my favorite stories was a madam told her she wanted to go straight and will obtain access to woman's finances, determin

years ago in the 11th grade went on stage historical question most the question whether or not warren hardingathered a illegitimate child of been obsessed ever since. >> what does theho history of presidents -- presidential candidates and their doctors, what does that tell us about the presidents of fitness for office and obviously this question surrounding president biden. >> i would like toes emphasize never know whether a particular president is healthy enough for office at the time. we learned this many years after the fact. people who seem at the time turn out not to be. some of our like franklin roosevelt are widely viewed as some of our most successful. and with a long history of deception by the white house which is not news to a bad thing for any information we learn about the president's health foreign governments learn about the presidents help the president may be afraid to share information aboutut their doctos they do not get optimal health care. >> you give us a historical example of when the president has been very ill and nobody knew about it? quick sure. this it dates back t

vice president number one saw charles served coolidge or 29th, chauvin coolidge who served under warren hardinge, for being silent. >> it's never close. a major in 1911 reported by tomi edwards is it's all in the game in strict number one in 1951. you are in big trouble but before we go ahead, which current vp you think will be better? >> j.d. vance is a writer and since all this about, jay defense is primed to side and that role in it doesn't matter if he's got good pitch. [laughter] >> i love this. the rich man north of cracker barrel. you are in the game. the question, which vp proposed government fund expedition for the center of the earth? twenty there vice president stephenson who served under grover cleveland or ninth, richard johnson who served under martin van buren? one of the expedition to the center of the earth? speaking of government wasting her money by the way. camp counselors paychecks look like when this happened? go ahead. >> can i guess the second guy? >> no, you are wrong. but here we go. which candidate would be better at leading a expedition to the center of the earth? th

warren harding with those two presidents, the only ones rated as failures. now that remained the case in a 1982 poll by robert murray and tim blessing, which had placed grant again second to harding at the bottom. but he skipped forward to the 21st century in grants reputation we see has taken an unmistakable upswing in c-span most recent poll in 2021, he went up to 20, just above the middle. now think historians polls to be taken with a grain of salt. but i also believe the president can be described as great. one of my essays and granted hundred explorers the changing presidential standing of our 18th president in the eyes of history and why i believe he belongs in the pantheon of great presidents. and much of my own focus goes to the political and the legal to the constitutional really that took place during the reconstruction era. so while the constitution does not assign presidents a direct role in the ratification of constitutional amendments presidents can still exercise the power they do have to secure them. the most foundational constitution all dev

warren harding had a child out of wedlock, denied paternity, that he was the father, confirmed by dnantury later. if you can talk about the sexist double standard, jessica. >> there is still this idea that if you are a woman, unless you bear children, you are somehow less than. it just devalues all of us to divide us this way, to put our work into whether we are able to or desiring of having our own children. i just cannot think of something that is less american than not giving people the freedom to decide what they want to do with their bodies and family building. i just think it has absolutely nothing to do with how you legislate. at baseline, any legislator should be able to come up with policy and support policy that has nothing to do with them, because that is what being a legislator is. representing all the people, whether they voted for you are not. whether someone has biological children is completely irrelevant to whether or not they are a good leader. there is a history of people being terrible parents who are also leaders, and we don't think of them as any less than in ter

security to have been impressed to what i've seen up to this point i think normalcy to quote warren hardinglcy is what we're looking for here. i know my speech tomorrow is not going to change a bit it is going to be positive we need to change and here's a guy who'd is to give it to us progress just got word nikki haley has been invited and she was going to speak. is that a good signal for you guys? what's absolutes the right thing is not only a good signal for our party it's a good signal for the country of donald trump ends up being the president of the united states. even people who were pretty strongly opposed we sought in iowa in a and a major degree thn come together for the good the cause that is what political parties are is coming together for the good of the cause. >> both sides are talking about taking the temperature down. do you think that is going to happen considering where we are as a country? >> to a degree. politics is a full context where there will be contra spaces there's going be strong issue concerns there is a definitely a difference between their two visions. i would

that alternated among the next presidents with william howard taft following teddy roosevelt and warren harding following woodrow wilson. this makes seven presidents over a little than 50 years. and in 1920. you had no choice. you had to vote for ohio. you could vote either for harding or for ohio. democrat james cox, pictured here with running mate that year, some guy named roosevelt. so to a appreciate these presence. we first need to understand what the main political issues were at the time. and these are mostly very different than the issues that animate current political discourse. for example, there were still issues from the civil war during most of this period. one of the main ones had to do with the question of to protect, protect the civil rights of the freedmen in the south even as southern state governments, vigilante groups like the ku klux klan to strip them away. also union veterans during this period were constantly lobbying for the expansion of pensions for themselves and their and in general, republi tended to advocate for these measures, often engaging in something called wa

coolidge wore a black armband as a symbol of mourning on the death of his predecessor warren g harding on the death of his 16 year old son calvin jr. and on the death of his father colonel coolidge, and i was wondering if any of you can comment on the tradition of wearing a black armband as a sign of mourning when did it start and when did it seem to go out of fashion? i know that i should be able to comment on this, but unfortunately, i don't know the history of that. but yeah, but it's something that isn't really in style now. you don't really see it now. but yeah, unfortunately that's a really good question and i don't have the answer. sir yes, thank you, sir. nikolai. i had the privilege of marching in president kennedy's. inaugural parade and i had to also that was my plea beer and my if the naval academy and my first class year, i had the privilege of leading the honor company. ah that marched in his funeral procession. and the marine band the us the naval the national geographic magazine took a picture at the lincoln memorial. it was the marine band west point. the naval academy

11th grade, we had to solve a historical question and mine was the question of whether or not warren hardingate child. i've been obsessed with the question of presidential health ever since. host: what does the history of president and ex-president -- presidents and presidential candidates and their doctors, what does that tell us about the presidents' fitness for office, and obviously this question now surrounding president biden? dr. appel: what i can emphasize is we will weather know whether a particular president is healthy enough for office at the time. we learned this many. years past defect. people who have seemed very healthy -- past the fact. people who have seemed very healthy at the time -- franklin roosevelt, widely viewed as are most successful, and with a long history of deception by the white house, which is not necessarily bad. because any information we learn about the president's health, form governments learn about the president's health. the president may be afraid to share information with their doctor. host: can you give a certain historical example of when the presiden
