states its t wo-ocean navy and the largest navy in the world. so, he goes back to the united states. this is 1919. it turns out that the republicans had taken control of elections.s, midterm by the time -- he had tried before he went to france in late winter, early spring, he had tried to get the lame-duck session of congress, which was still controlled by the democrats, to fund the next installment of the building program. they dragged their feet. the war was ending. they did not want to commit to the amount of money daniels was asking for. and so, the issue is rolled over into the next congress and the republicans, after this torturous set of negotiations in london, congress will not fund the naval-building program. and so, it becomes the harding administration's problem to following the 1920 election. now, another question that i received related to the 1920 earlier in the ,nterview that i did on c-span the question came up of what role did franklin -- franklin delano roosevelt play in daniels' tenure as secretary of the navy? i will start at

united states have been there before under president kennedy. but it had not expanded the war period did during that in 1965. i joined with a very few number of people. i think there were 12 of us. we went down here to this spot in front of the statue here and held a vigil against the war in vietnam. it was february in wisconsin. the temperature that evening was brutally cold. it was probably below zero. there was snow, up to about a foot deep in snow, so it was absolutely awful. walked in a us circle around here with placards local males inr, cars came by and started throwing cans of beer at us, so we knew we were distinctly in the minority. we were aware of that earlier, but this made it awfully clear to us. in 1965 when the united states bombed north vietnam for the of 1955,e, in february opposition to the war was ms. gill -- miniscule. there was hardly anybody opposed to the war in vietnam at that time. by the end of the next six years or so, 66% of the people of madison had expressed opposition to the war in vietnam through a referendum hel

there's an ice and snow center, which is important for navigational reasons to the united states coast guard and navy. they're partners in one of the noaa systems that go into this weather service overarching system. so there are points on which these things intersect. the degree to which the firewalls that are there separate them once you get a little bit i side the system is not something i know, but there's certainly connections at least on the public side of it -- >> the interpretation of it is this could be one of those instance where is they just are jealous and want to create one of these for themselves. and so they're going to go in there as they've done before, and try to figure it all out and copy it. >> and perhaps somebody looked at something and misread what they were looking at. that's not the evidence that we have on that, but it would be even the more innocent explanation. >> yeah. thank you very, very much for joining us. >> you're welcome. thanks. >> thank you. coming up, why former republican congressman tom tancredo wants to stop chris christie from becoming preside

he also served 27 years in the united states navy and u.s. naval reserves. ten years in the house of representatives and 30 years here in the united states senate. now, i think anybody looking at that would say that is a remarkable and distinguished record of public service. after 40 years of representing iowans in congress, my friend tom soon will leave behind the halls of the u.s. capitol. he also will leave behind a legacy of fiery floor speeches, passionately delivered on behalf of individuals with disabilities. also for iowa farmers. also for the elderly. also for child laborers, and for many causes that he championed, such as early childhood education, nutrition and wellness, conservation, renewable energy, and the environment, and probably lots of others, but those are things that everybody knows that he has worked hard on. throughout the years tom and i have served side by side in washington for the good of our home state. for three terms we worked together in the u.s. house of representatives. it was here in the senate our shared commitment to give

by this time, about 200,000 african-americans are in the united states military forces, the army and navy. that's about 10%. 10%? i think. 20%. of the total force. it's a significant amount of the american men in the field. if lincoln goes back on this promise of emancipation, what is going to hold these men in the field? nothing. they are going to leave because they no longer have a promise of emancipation either for themselves or for their families. their motivation is gone. there's nothing to fight for if he removes emancipation. there's a really practical aspect of this as well. remember, the army has been having an extremely difficult time raising men, even with a draft for two years. so, the presence of african-americans in the military is crucial for the war effort. so, that memo goes away. what happens instead is that lincoln writes a memo to his cabinet and in it he lays out a sketch of what he intends to do between november and march. the four months that he will be a lame duck, he anticipates, the four months between the time that the democratic candidate will have been el

the united states was growing wealthy, why put that at risk. but in 1915 to 1917 the threat to american shores grew greater with germany reintroducing submarine warfare. the zimmerman telegram which tried to design a japanese alliance ended in the united states. and a threat that was a few thousand miles away all of a sudden was left on the american door step. that left the americans very few options than to get involved with the war, other than the fact that the ensuing months before the war the united states did literally nothing to get involved in the war. >> when we come back we'll talk about the tactics and the battlefield. >> a conflict that started 100 year ago, some say, never ended... revealing... untold stories of the valor... >> they opened fire on the english officers... >> sacrifice... >> i order you to die... >> and ultimate betrayal... drawing lines in the sand that would shape the middle east and frame the conflict today >> world war one: through arab eyes only on al jazeera america >> native families divided by foster care >> a
