they tell you they are going to do this and that or like franklin roosevelt in 1932, the talk out of both sides of their mouths or they don't tell you what they are going to do. then you see governor christie last night on cnn after he was elected. he praised the people who voted for him and all the people of new jersey and he is one of them and they are part of him etc.. not a clue as to what he would do. smart politics because who knows what he will do you see? he just won a big election so kennedy, he didn't know. he wasn't sure but i think it's clear he didn't want to escalate and get involved in that war. he didn't want to lose. maybe he would have bombed but i don't think he would have put 545,000 troops into vietnam. >> johnson of course was one of the most militarists of the cuban missile crisis and never learns the resistance of the bay of pigs. >> i teach my course is the fact that franklin roosevelt was exceptionally shrewd about making foreign-policy. in the run-up to world war ii he operated by the proposition that before you could have a stable consensus or a foreign-po

roosevelt insisted on not sharing the same bed with franklin roosevelt. at that time, mrs. roosevelt chose a bedroom right next to this room. it has a doorway coming right in this was an area where she could. be by herself. it was a bit of a private space for her. the furniture in this room was used by mrs. roosevelt, one of the few areas where she could get some privacy. when mrs. roosevelt was in hyde park and franklin was also here, it was a given they would both asleep here in the house. if for some reason franklin was not in hyde park, mrs. roosevelt here on her own would choose to spend her time a couple of short miles away. in this direction, we have the entrance of sarah roosevelt.'s bedroom. her bed room is sandwiched between sarah's and her husband's just like in her life she was sandwiched between them. >> a little bit of talk about her mother-in-law. what was sarah roosevelt alike? >> first of all, franklin was i think she was a good mother in terms of loving and kept her eye on him. people felt bad about eleanor having to deal with her. she was very intensely l

the first was a treaty which made the summer home of franklin delano roosevelt and international park between canada and the united states. behind this table, prime minister pearson of canada and my husband were sitted, flanked by their delegations. i remember james roosevelt and ms. grace tully, the president's personal secretary, it was a thrilling look back into the past. and then from the northernmost part of the country to the southernmost. in october of 1967, returning to mexico a small strip of land that was long a dispute between our countries. what a feeling of goodwill there was that day. the texas congressman from the border districts were here and a delegation from mexico, everyone i felt was saying to himself it is done at last. i can recall some other writing performed at this table. i was showing my guest the rooms on the second floor. we entered the treaty room and as i began my recital, i saw on the table some rather tattered notebooks and chewed pencils, a high school algebra and latin book. it was evident at linda and lucy had discovered what i too would soon learn,

franklin roosevelt served for 12, but three of them never got to the second term. lincoln assassinated. mckinley assassinated, and nixon, forced to resign. obama will be just the 14th 14th president to serve eight years when he gets through his second term. but it's the second term curse. would we be sitting here talking in this way about kennedy if he had had a second term? ... i think kennedy would have struggled too in a second term. this is all sheer speculation but kennedy of course comes down to us now as it's an open book. you can write anything onto it you want because he was killed at the age of six, only 1000 days in the white house. he had a sense of the ironic. he would have seen the irony in the fact that his early death gave him this enduring hold on the public and it is fascinating to me because when kennedy was assassinated a popular president elected to a second term, 50 years after his death hardly anyone remembered who he was but here we are a couple weeks away from kennedy's 50th anniversary and i'm telling you i am inundated with requests from

what was franklin delano roosevelt's answer to the needs of older americans? too many young people were untrained, uneducated, and unemployable. how could they get a place at the economic starting line? welfare reform. after 60 years of guaranteeing benefits to welfare recipients, the federal government wants them to go to work. has the new policy succeeded? we are the richest, most prosperous nation on earth. yet, in the midst of plenty, great disparities in wealth. "reducing poverty: what have we done?" with the help of economic analyst richard gill we'll investigate that question on this edition of "economics u$a." i'm david schoumacher. there have always been people left out of the american dream -- the young, the old, the ill, the untrained. and those who've just lost out in a competitive economy which has losers as well as winners. today we take it for granted that the government has a role to play in reducing poverty and we argue only about how and how much. but before food stamps and public housing, before government aid to the elderly, what happened w

you know, we all kind of grew up with the idea that franklin roosevelt had overcome polio and gone on to be president. but i wondered had anybody really told the story of how that happened, had they gotten into the details. and had they told the story the way it really could be told. i was hoping that i might find that story and so that's what i worked on. it was difficult, because fdr was not forthcoming with his thoughts and emotions, but when you put the pieces together, there was a story there that i think hadn't been told before. >> terrific story. we recommend the book highly. "the man he became." fdr and polio were almost synonymous throughout my life whenever studying him but you've run up on a number of things i had not either known not considered. one was where in the world he had contracted polio. tell us about that. >> it's pretty clear, if you look at the timing of events, that fdr was infected with the virus at a boy scout picnic, campout of all things, in the summer of 1921. he went to that campout, he was chairman of the local -- of the new york area boy scouts. this w

i found out that franklin roosevelt laboring hype park, new york, for example, a detailed account by the atlanta funeral home director who had prepared franklin roosevelt's body for burial when the president at warm springs, georgia on april 12, 1945. a document in his powerful and moving as it is clinical. after several hours and injected ex-bottles of embalming fluid into the president pain and arteries, this partition summoned arthur beeman, the president and handed him a calm and hadn't combed the president's hair is so. john updike once said the 20th century met, he called it a tell of choice, ankles are infinite. the central figures number in me says that they size, the theatricality. they bring back the dead. i tried to do that would be a speakers you're familiar with some of the eisenhower's and patents of the war, but others less familiar like general ted was about junior and aleutian trust a junior. even amid the clash of army groups, my eyes always drawn to the particular small tragedy that eliminates the larger catastrophe. so, for example, i tell the story of the death o

president franklin roosevelt's bedroom was next door. this room as a sitting room and an office. for us, it is the main drawing room. on winter evenings the fire is a magnet for good conversation. traditionally, the yellow oval room has been used for entertaining and for receptions. in fact, this is where the first official reception ever held at the white house took place. here on a chilly january 1 in 1801, john and abigail adams -- receive the ministers from the first six countries that had recognized this brand-new nation. and still today, this room offers hospitality to visiting chiefs of state. this is where we invite the prime minister's or kings and their wives for that half hour or so before a state dinner. filled with honors and formal ceremonies on the south lawn. colorful fanfare sometimes a , parade. this has always been an impressive experience, a responsibility. i go to the third floor before the occasion and look at the great map case. india,l down liberia, then i read a fat sheaf of briefings on the visitors. i also try to go over the guest list a good many times

roosevelt could, his breaking the barrier of religious rules of who gets in and who doesn't, and the way he did it. no self-pity, no it's time for us, no. and his going to the moon. going to the moon -- we take it now for granted. yeah, of course, we went to the moon, ya, mm-hmm. >> it gave us a national effort. >> it was emblematic. it was symbolism. we can do what we determine if we work together, and we've got to remember that. we have got to work together. it's a joint effort. and, yes, you can have political differences, but we're all in this together. and if we don't stop playing these childish games in national politics and get back to the job at hand, we're going to be in the soup. >> it occurs to me that the majesty is in the presidency, how we elect them, how we inaugurate them, the trappings of office. but thinking that we've had a president assassinated at an exposition. we've had a president assassinated in a theater. and in this perfectly ordinary setting. >> yes, yes. i think that's what strikes me about it here. it's anywhere, usa. it's not a great ceremonial somethin

like we think of roosevelt doing all the things to get us out of the frank -- franklin d. roosevelt, to get us out of the depression. we think, wow, johnson really moved us ahead in working on our problems as a society. but the interesting thing about it as a sideline is he was clearly doing this for a national audience. he knew this would be televised and he wasn't worry too much about being here in the university of michigan at ann arbor. that was just the vehicle. he never mentioned the university of michigan. until the end of the speech he made some sort of reference to young people. young people will be involved in this. and would you be willing to help me do these things. sort of like kennedy did with the peace corps speech. but he never said would you here in ann arbor. and he once mentioned michigan just as an example of when he was talking about education. i read over the speech. and so he was more being a statesman for the whole country. he wasn't at all partisan either in the speech. he was trying to be a statesman. i think it's interesting that both these major

in 1932, when franklin roosevelt came into office, the white house was occupied. it was called the bonus army. literally from the edge of the white house down to the potomac river was a sea of people. fdr confronted this enormous occupation. it was the consequence of three years of the crash not being addressed. had he not been able to get this small stimulus to stop losing jobs to take us to a flat level, the occupy movement would have been 10 times larger than now. >> lythgoe back to his inaugural address in 1933. our past put people to work. is no unsolvable problem if we face it wisely and courageously. it can be accomplished in part by direct recruiting by the government itself, treating the past as we would treat the emergency of a war. but at the same time, proved its employment, accomplishing greatly needed projects to stimulate and reorganize the use of our great natural resources. >> that was president franklin delano roosevelt's inaugural address in 1933. you say president obama missed the fdr moment. the first months of his presidency, and before scott

were franklin roosevelt was not a simple man we think that marks a great and noble was not his. but out of this complicated nature that brodeur achievement but to have the imagination into the most varied human experience is. with the economic and strategic circumstances thrust upon him thousands of books have been written about fdr. why do we need another one? almost everything that has been written is either the new deal years or the war years virtually nothing written about the connective tissue between those achievements. trying now to get into his head was not easy to do to understand the decision making process. of course, he wrote no memoir because he did not survive his presidency and was not always candid with associates so it is no easy task to get into his head. fdr once a huge reelection in 1936 but as soon as it was over the end he had a court packing plant that was smacked down he took his foot off the accelerator more people joined the unemployment rolls in they were in the roosevelt recession. it in the 1938 election those that would not support his program the f

then franklin roosevelt cheating on eleanor roosevelt in 1917. the rich have their prerogatives. they take them. >> one of our viewers asks how did mrs. harding respond to the rumors of harding's wandering eyes? >> it is a great question. there is a debate about these relationships that warren harding had. he had this affair with carrie phillips. they were both a couple who were related in ohio. what happens over time is that warren falls in love with carrie. florence discovers about this affair. they were still friends and vacationing together. how was is happening? how did she reacts? not very happily. she asked him to consider divorce. he knew he needed her for his career. he agreed to downplay the affair, and i believe he committed to ending it. he did not, as it turns out. as he is running for president, it is an embarrassment. it hasn't been an active affair for several years. they were flaring years of it. in the end, she is essentially bought off by members of the republican party who come up with funds to get her out-of- of the way. florence was not happy at all. there a

roosevelt. as he read out that in nineteen forty four new york times on american fascism and i were to read your focus if we define american fascist as one who in cases of conflict puts money and power ahead of human beings. then there are undoubtedly several million fascist in the united states there are probably several hundred thousand if we dare the definition to include only those who in their search for money and power are ruthless and deceitful when you make of that definition and even the american government's obsession with wealth creation. do we have been american fascism problem well if that is mostly one point forty two he says america's fastest of those people who think wall street comes first and the american people second. today we call them democrats or republicans this is that this is at the heart of both parties which is why there's so little difference between them. this would take the long view of american foreign policy more so than domestic policy. there's very little to fi

you know, she had lived in washington all those years and watched as franklin roosevelt's relationship with lucy mercer and john f. kennedy's relationship with other women, reporters didn't write about that. but in the johnson years, and perhaps encouraged a little bit by the president himself, johnson himself, they did start writing about the women around them. i think "time" magazine in 1964:00 lyndon johnson had been president only three or four months, had this article about lyndon johnson driving around the roads of texas at 84 miles an hour with a glass of beer on the dashboard and a beautiful young reporter at his side cooing into his ear, "mr. president, you're fun," i think was the headline. i don't think you'll find any articles on previous presidents. so i think it's important to remember that she came into the spotlight at a time when the spotlight had changed. >> here's one critique of president johnson about this aspect of his -- and the source is lou gould again and his biography. johnson preyed on some of the women who worked with him and was not above make advances to
