lee had worked for richard nixon in '64 when nixon backed barry goldwater very strongly. he went and traveled with nixon for months during that. but the rest of the rippon people were probably much more oriented towards nelson rockefeller. who had emerged to the leading counterpoint to goldwater and conservatives. rockefeller was sort of the big state, big governor, big spender, viewed part of the party. the progressive wing of the party. >> you have an interesting thing that i haven't thought of. that before he deflated romney was that he had -- >> romney -- who was the governor of michigan, father of mitt romney you more likely heard about recently. george romney was a person who never finished college. he had been born in mexico. american parents. but he was someone who wore his heart on his sleeve. very passionate, committed person particularly civil rights and he was a scrapper. he would wade in when he was running for governor in michigan, he would wade into opposition parties. he'd jump into a trade union meeting or he'd jump into a democratic ward committee or som

all done by steve barry at the university of georgia. and listen there are at historians out there they write something, i'm like i got to read it. and steve barry, look at his stuff he's done, digital history. it is fantastic. his books are great. private voices is a wonderful contribution to our field. wonderful. yes please. mic up here. >> is it possible that the events -- as well covered by the confederate side because doing so would have underscored the fact that the confederate government was not in a position to protect its citizens at that point and would have had the converse effect of undermining faith in the confederate government. >> i think you are spot on. i'm going to add one more concrete to that. i think that's it. i think that that acknowledgment or admission is an admission that question not protect our civilians. and you can only imagine one of these veterans in the churches around petersburg or richmond and you are giving compelling reason to desert and go back home. and that is part of it as well. and there is a thi

barry goldwater has given us some of the most colorful language that anyone has given us in criticizing richard nixon. >> if i may, let me offer a bonus president, bill clinton during the era of impeachment. he was obviously despised by his enemies throughout his president but once he was impeached, senate democrats in particular, i wouldn't go so far as to say they hated clinton for what he did but they were certainly disgusted by it. it's one of those cases, not unlike recent impeachments, that were the votes secret, and were the vote, you know, less prescriptive by party, he would have gotten a much different vote in the end. this is our speed round, if you will. everybody's got to answer this one but we don't have a lot of time. this is a question which i'll reformulate from david mond. in the final analysis, was it primarily the person and his style of governing or the policies that the president espoused that led them to be so hated? we'll go in reverse chronological order just to spin things up. so, nixon. >> really interesting question. in the interests of the speed round i'll s

barry goldwater, for example, gives us some of the most colorful language that anyone has given us in criticizing richard nixon. >> if i may, let me offer a bonus president, bill clinton during the era of impeachment. obviously, he was despised by his eneies throughout his presidency, but once he was impeached, senate democrats in particular, i wouldn't go so far as to say they hated clinton for what he did, but they were certainly disgusted by it. it's one of those cases, not unlike recent impeachments, that were the votes secret, and were the vote, you know, less prescriptive by party, he would have gotten a much different vote in the end. let me throw this one, this is our speed round, if you will. everybody's got to answer this one but we don't have a lot of time. this is a question which i'll reformulate from david mond. i love this question. in the final analysis, was it primarily the person and his style of governing or the policies that the president espoused that led them to be so hated? we'll go in reverse chronological order just to spin things up. so, nixon. >> really inte

oppositional research on barry goldwater. and this has been taken from 1968. when i round up being head of intelligence for nelson rockefeller's presidential campaign, where we built files on all delegates to the convention. i was working for their social associations. for foreign policy or defense or health care. and so that's when i was working in. as i say in the book, he had a glow. nelson was a schmoozer and who is not particularly articulate, but going back to romney, romney had real feelings about religion. and nelson rockefeller would occasionally try to go through that sort of thing. he had what we called the bomb fog speech. it was not very successful. but he was at the same time, a builder, he was a strong personality. and he had really very muscular -- he was a case in point of a republican who wanted to do things with and through government. >> richard norton smith seems to be the light motif of this evening. but he had this rockefeller why roughly. tell us about another titanic figure. you had worked with him closely. tell us about pat moynahan.

barry, i worked with barry at pd&r. our mission is to promote bipartisan policies that advance housing affordability for all. you cannot really do this unless you understand the housing needs of the lowest income americans, as well as trends in housing, both on a national and regional novel. the data provided by the american housing survey is critical to this understanding. ron to relic or -- terwilleger reminds us that you have the supply-side dimension and the demand-side dimension. what we learned from the report is that there is a severe shortage of affordable rental homes. there are only 62 affordable and available rental homes for every 100 very low income renters. there is just 40 available and affordable toll homes for every 100 extremely low income renters. there is eight severe shortage which we need to address. on the demand-side, what did we learn from the report? we learned that a little more than 5 million renter households received federal housing assistance, but there are 7.77 million renter households w

steve barry, look at the stuff he's done, it is fantastic. his books are great. private voices is a wonderful contribution. >> is a possible it's covid by the confederate side? they've underscored the fact the confederate government was not in a position to protect citizens at that time? what they have conversed the fact of undermining the fate of the confederate government? >> i think you're spot on. i will add to that, that's it. the acknowledgment or an admission is what we can do to protect our citizens and you can only imagine happening to our women? i think you've given the soldiers a compelling reason to desert and go back home so that's probably part of it. there is a third and i would love to take credit for it, one of steve barry's students was down there and he presented this paper and he said to me, i think he is probably right, maybe a reluctance to go public with this because it's unfortunately no it's the reality in the 19th century, this shame that would have followed the women of sussex county, they were victims of that. we have to just acknowled

and i do want to tip my hat to barry as well. i worked with barry back in the day. but to answer your question, let me start by telling you about the new center. our missions is to promote bipartisan policies that advance housing affordability for all. and you cannot really do this unless you understand the housing needs of the lowest income americans, as well as the trends in housing on a national and regional level. and the data provided by the american housing survey, as interpreted by hud is critical to this understanding. ron reminds us that the housing affordability challenge has two dimensions. you have the supply side dimension and the demand side dimension. now, what we learned from the worse case housing needs report is there's a severe shortage of affordable rental homes. we heard jennifer's presentation. only 62 affordable and available rental homes for every 100 very low-income renters and just 40 available and affordable rental homes for every 100 extremely low income renters. so, there's a severe shortage of affordable rental homes, which we need addr

that is former secretary of sense bill barry want said, bad processes the good people every day. and we have this proliferation of bad, bureaucratic processes in the pentagon. and the same thing in the congress. norm augustine called the congress now a broken branch. they don't get their work done on time. they don't detail oversight anymore. they were in tears for the last 25 years. so, we have got to fundamentally change the processes in government in both the congress and the pentagon, if we're going to remain competitive with china and russia. that's a problem. to >> missy, another way to add on to that, which is very helpful arnold, thank you. is to see that i've been around long enough and i think general punaro has been as well to have gone through the goldwater nickel state of legislation. another way of seeing that is, i've been in the conscripted force and i've been in the all volunteer force. and the all volunteer force was a great creation. i think it's time for for us to think about a new goldwater nichols to correct the unintended consequences that colonel punaro ha

barry goldwater gives us some of the most colorful language that anyone has given us and criticizing richard nixon. >> let me offer if i may a bonus president bill clinton during the era of impeachment obviously he was justified by his enemies throughout his presidency. once he was impeached i think the senate democrats in particular wouldn't say they would go so far to say they hated clinton for what he did there recently disgusted by it. it's one of those cases not unlike our recent impeachments are the votes secret and were devote less scripted by party i think we would've gotten a much different vote in the end. this is our speed round if you will. everyone is got to answer. that question comes in from david long i love this question. in the final analysis, right person and his style of governing or the policies the president ex-spouse that led them to be so hated? we will go in reverse chronological order to spin things up. so nixon? >> really the same question. in the interest of the speed round i'm going to say mostly it is the person. but i think the policies have been undere

nixon backed barry goldwater very strongly. he traveled with them for months but the rest of the rip on people leaned more towards nelson rockefeller who emerged as counterpoint to goldwater. big state digs governor big spender progressive wing of the party. >> the interesting thing that i hadn't thought of romney. >> he was the governor of michigan and his father -- george romney was a person who never finished college and he was born in mexico but he was someone who wore his heart on his sleeve. he was a very passionate person and he was a scrapper. wind he was running for governor he would wave at the opposition parties and jump into the trade union meeting or at the democratic board. his poll names or explosives. he appealed to the evangelicals. but he had a very strong appeal. for a while romney was riding high. there were extraordinary files of research but he always wanted the nomination. iraqis say he famously or infamously came back from vietnam from a trip to vietnam and observed -- but he changed his view because whe

in 1963 as he's sizing up the potential republican nominees for president in 1964, he talked about barry goldwater whose name was being mentioned significantly, he talked about nelson rockefeller. he thought about rockefeller, and he thought that -- he couldn't really understand what rockefeller was doing. about a year earlier, rockefeller had left his wife to marry a much younger woman, a woman who it was said in the press who he stole from her husband, there were young children involved. but rockefeller seemingly sacrificed everything to be with the woman he love. really he probably fore stalled any chance he had of winning the republican nomination in 1964 because of the scandal that ensued because he was marrying the woman he loved. so kennedy was thinking about this, and he declared that no man would ever love love more than politics. i think john tyler probably would have understood exactly the sentiment that john f. kennedy mentioned at that time. i appreciate your attention told. if you have not bought my book, i want this slide burned into your memory. this is the title of the b

and that was because you had some really, really strong leaders in barry goldwater and nickels and others. you've got to have the cooperation of the pentagon. these processes are exceedingly complex. these agencies do more agencies -- that's how massive and how large these organizations are. so i think that will is there. it will just take the pentagon and the congress, and it's going to take us from the outside, it's going to take the news media focusing people on the nature of the problem and getting people to be willing to show courage and backbone and by the bullets. >> missy -- >> please, go ahead -- >> thank you. i think that one of the things that we should be careful about it's not to overstate china marshes capabilities. russia has the gdp the size of new york state. vladimir putin is more of a nuisance than a threat. they have nuclear weapons so they are more of a threat. it boggles the mind why the world accords them the respect for a statesman when he's really a two bit dictator.
