they -- for them, you could see this and say the way woodrow wilson treats the federalists. he talks about it, but he has little acquaintance with it. he never studied it carefully as one might, in many colleges and universities today, because he assumed that the meaning of the federalists was what the federalist did, what it accomplished, the works that proceeded from it. the dock -- doctrines of the federalists were operation noel belonging to the world that had been surpassed by contemporary america. this was a principle that the progressives applied ruthlessly to religion as well as to education and to politics. that's why president obama is not embarrassed to say, as he says in the second book, "the audacity of hope," that he believes in the living constitution. the phrase, and to the large extent, the idea comes from wilson. the term sounds so green, so natural, so organic, like one of those environmental laws republicans are always opposing according to the democrats, but that's a deliberate misdirection. in the living constitution that woodrow wilson and president ob

these were woodrow wilson, harry truman and george w. bush. these presidents experienced troubled or failed second terms. history aside, one cannot discount the possibility that obama would win not based on statistics like this, but because the electorate judges him the best alternative of the two candidates. success in a second term for obama is another matter, however. thank you.

woodrow wilson was saying stuff about we are the savior of the world, so there has always been this puritanism in our thinking, this concept that america is exceptional in its own way. we are human beings. if anything, it is a global world, and we can interact. we must get over this complex of superiority. >> you are right. a big part of the story is american imperialism, and the flip side is building up national security at home. were we going to get out of the depression, there were two ways to deal with that. one is to raise the standard of living at home so people can consume more. the other is to go overseas to find markets. the united states are going overseas, and we begin to build our empire. we build our empire in the philippines, especially in the spanish-american war, and what do we do with? we slaughter people. that is a crucial turning point, because that is where they look at trying to change. it goes against our tradition. it goes against our republic, and we see a gradual dilution of liberties and also an expansion of a militaristic mindset, which is a flip side of empire. tavi

most were hostile to common-law with president woodrow wilson being the prime example of one who thought the constitution needed to be malleable and -- as america stood on the edge of world leadership europe entered a decade in which it convinced itself war was impossible. the book grand illusion captured the view that europeans were too led vance, sophisticated to fight each other. john mccain echoed this with his famous observation how the world was tied together, and englishmen could order from his doorstep products from faraway lands and have them delivered to him. it is an early version of thomas friedman's theory which claims advanced countries that use computers won't go to war with each other. are, the starbucks theory. any two countries that have starbucks won't fight. unless they have triple espressoss. another observer-block, in a much different way, posited war would be so bloody and weaponry so deadly that no one would dare risk a conflict. all of these views assume european leaders can be rational, a stretch even in the present day. this of course vanished in august of 1914

if you go back to woodrow wilson in his second term trying to join the league of nations, that was pretty much the end of wilson. that was his second term. when it was truman in his second term during the korean war, he fired general mcarthur. the country responded by throwing parades for the general who got fired. and harry truman left office with approval ratings that dick cheney would kill for, but for everyone else would see that as a disaster. second terms are almost always seen as a disaster, then at least when the big disappointments happen and often the failures. when the soviet union beat us, when the soviet union beat the united states to put the first space satellite into orbit, when no nation had put something like that -- up in space and had it stick there and the soviets did it first with sputnik, when they beat us in a race we were also running in, it was during president eisenhower's second term. second term. it's not like bad things and challenges and failures don't happen in first terms too. but there's something that we understand as americans to be as certain as death

wilson center. welcome to you all. let me start with you, alan dershowitz. a day that promised so much but in the end delivered very little. what is your reading of where we are with this? >> i don't think it promised all that much. i think all it really promised was some kind of a cooling-off period. i don't believe that there will be a cease-fire that will hold. the representative of the plo acknowledged that. he agreed with me. he said he thought in four years or three years or two years, israel would start it up again but that's not the way it works. the way it works is hamas decides whether because they want to test egypt or because they are told by iran or because of their own people that the time has come to renew the sending of rockets and once that happens, in a democracy like israel, there has to be a response. the israelis have to protect their civilians and so they then take action, military actions, and it's called the cycle of violence but it's not a cycle of violence. there's a differ
