there's a living museum like williamsburg where people are in costume and actually reenact the past. museums are important because they not only give us a sense of where we come from, what our past is, but it gives us a sense of what our future can be. >> and so, karen, as museums have evolved, then what does a curator do with any particular exhibit? i imagine it changes, depending on what that exhibit is all about, interactive qualities, the form of the exhibit itself, the art form. so how is the evolution of museum life, if i can use that kind of a phrase, how does it influence the work of a curator? >> very interesting question, because i think things are changing in the world. they are welcoming a much broader audience. what we do as curators, at least in our contemporary jewish museum, is try to create a more dynamic interface between our public, and the artifacts on view. sometimes we do that through ipads, interactive engagements, and as the younger audience comes to museum, with their little iphones and ipads, i think one of our challenges as curators and museum directors is

in fact, jefferson is seriously considering not coming to philadelphia but going to williamsburg in may of 1776 because they were drafting their own constitution. jefferson was a virginian as well as an american at that time he drafts and elegant first draft of the constitution. it is altered slightly in a few days' time as benjamin franklin, livingston, adams, and sherman make a few changes in the document. >> you give us the very first draft of jefferson's in which he wrote we hold these truths to be self-evident. all men are created equal and independent, that it from that equal creation date to arrive rights inherent in inalienable, which of the preservation of life and liberty and pursuit of happiness. you, of course, suggest the final version was a bit more elegant. this is the question i have always had which bears deeply on the difference between jefferson's declaration and the constitution. what is the significance of jefferson's language and the language of the fifth amendment to the constitution which says that no person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property without

hate and hipster will spend too much money on pabst blue ribbon on their way to the factory in williamsburgmccartney at age 71 is a walkin', talkin' bass electric guitar billionaire ad for a vegetarian diet who is cooler than you and can kick your hipster ass. i saw paul play in brooklyn last week week. he did a three hour, 28-song set and trying out songs the beatles never attempted to play live. i know 35 years-year-olds who couldn't play a three hour show. wings was banned twice. once for give ireland back to the irish which could be the most political song any of the beatles ever wrote and once for another song i'll reveal in a second. john wrote all of the edgy beatles songs? damn hipster, don't bad you never heard side two of abbey road. not every paul album is great but every paul album has one or two great songs. john and george couldn't claim the same you hipster fedora wearing scum and yes paul's made mistakes. he takes risks. the fraud chorus isn't exactly eleanor rigby. three of his last four records have been bona fide great. he played almost all of the instruments for radiohea

why didn't they go to, like, williamsburg or somebody by bus or something you can do without this enormous expense of travel? any explanation? >> it's crazy, especially since, remember, there was the gsa scandal, the government service administration scandal over lavish spending and craziness. and that -- these things keep cropping up. it's like whack-a-mole. you send some new inspector general, some new head to stop it and then some new agency comes up and starts doing it again. i feel really sorry for danny werfel, the guy from the white house budget office, just sent over to irs to stop all this just when all this is coming up. he's a guy who's basically a green eye shade kind of guy who's experienced in doing this, but he's got a really thankless job ahead of him. >> you know, this is an example, by the way, the i.g.'s reporting, not the republican party, the i.g. which is part of the u.s. government. by the way, when republicans are putting down the u.s. government which they have a right to in this case, they ought to give allowance to the fact this was discovered by, reported by, ex

this is sort of the beating heart of williamsburg even in the 1830s. and so all of the political activities, the social activity, they're really living at the center of it in this fantastic 18th century house that they were living in as john tyler is resurrecting his political career. after they move here when she is sort of running this household and running the entire tyler family she's going to be operating out of the house the business that is the tyler family running their various planttations all over the place. it's right here that she suffered a stroke in 1839 that partly paralyzed her although she was still able to retain control of the family accounts, of all the family business while john tyler was actually getting back involved in politics. it's right here in this phase that john tyler learned that he was elected as vice president to william henry harrison and it's also here in the spring of 18 41 where he was informed that he became tenth president of the united states. and here so she learned that she became the first lady of the united s

a historian for colonial williamsburg, steeped in first lady's history.elcome to the conversation. let us talk about the election. anybody who thinks there is hard knuckle politics today, look at the election of 1884 that brought grover cleveland into the white house. pretty rough stuff going on. what would you like? >> politics in the 1880's is brutal. we think about earlier elections where they are taking swings at each other like jefferson and adams. they be in the 1800 election. politics in the 1880's, you are he talks about newspapers, it is personal, it is visceral and because of the way political parties have developed, they are able to take these swipes at each other that really we would find surprising today. in 1884, all of these things would come out in the 1884 election. two candidates cannot be more different from each other. grover cleveland on the one hand who probably has very little political experience of this sort. he was mayor of buffalo in 1881. elected governor of new york in 1882. two years later, he is the democratic nominee for pr
