jefferson in a letter later says, excuse me, bull pucky. i was the one, i was chairman ever the committee and i was going to draft it and i drafted it. >> that is my favorite song in the show. mr. adams, i say you should write it. thanks a lot. you're destroying our dreams. >> i love "1776." it is wonderful. >> yes it is. >> certainly if you ask jefferson how that conversation went. there was no conversation. and he went, you know, just a couple of blocks from here, to do that drafting. his first draft of the declaration draws very heavily on the virginia constitution. in fact jefferson seriously considered 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 but he drafts, an elegant first draft of the constitution. it is altered slightly in the a few days time as benjamin franklin, william livingston, john adams, and roger sherman make a few changes in the document. >> you give us the very first draft of jefferso

but when i read the books i try to figure out where politically and jefferson and adams and jefferson and hamilton where they would be politically on the spectrum. i kind of gets the feeling jefferson and the it team party guy that he did the government. so can you just briefly go down a couple of those and see where you think they are politically right now. >> what i sense of the l.a. times reporter that i don't think i mentioned -- maybe i did -- try to bring them into the present like trying to plant cut flowers and they want to grow. you have to make a translation that is a better analogy. i will stick with the second question first. i think that jefferson is the ultimate ideal last. he is wilsonian making the world silver democracy. he's a believer in small government. and in some sense, but the industrial revolution and the end of the society in the beginning of the urban society with the thick demography, washington -- excuse me, jefferson's values become irrelevant, and he would say that pitted when we stop being an agrarian society, nothing i believe continues to apply, but o

washington believed in only land owners voting and believed in law and order, and jefferson said that the tree of liberty is watered with the blood of tie rants and rebels believing in upheaval and thought that a little blood was a small price to pay, but he, unlike washington, he was the hypocrite. here's the guy that writes the words all men are created equal with 2 00 slaves at home. what jefferson believed was not of great interest to us historically because he was such a hypocrite in so many, many ways. washington is really the principles of washington are the basic principles of the country today. >> that is a preview of the newest book coming out in october of 2013, "mr. president: george washington and the making of the nation's highest office." you're watching booktv on c-span2. >> hi, i'm robert, the washington editor of "national review," and i have a lot of books to read this summer, but as a political journalist, i look ahead to the 2016 presidential race, looking at candidates who run, especially on the republican side, and one of the people i'm looking at is kris chris

your quotation from jefferson every generation needs a new revolution, looking at the jefferson encyclopedia it is apparently a misquotation from a letter of 1787 when he was ambassador to paris. god forbid we should never be 20 years without such a rebellion, referring to a rebellion in massachusetts, but he continues and this is the central sentence from the letter, the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. it is its natural lenore, we had shooting in egypt a few days ago, we are seeing civil war in syria. is that egypt's future? if you're going to quote from that letter from jefferson. >> i didn't close everything. i quoted what i wanted and what i wanted was not that. i didn't talk about blood at all but i talked-about the importance of resisting tyranny. this was the main thing i took from thomas jefferson. no, i don't think we will send hopefully into what syria is like. there is no state, there's nothing, don't forget egypt has the most influential army in the region. it is culturally the most influential country, geostrategic lee

and that doesn't sound like thomas jefferson's jam right there. and with that in mind, what do you make of the remarks, was it a slip of the tongue and prepared and calculated decision to be made and whose benefit was it for? it seems to be one of two things. either it is a ga ffe and the president doesn't know or didn't know now who ho chemin really does or did. and i have no idea. and the other possibility was he was being morally flexible and at home and say something nice and he got carried away and saying this guy who was really a butcher and regime that followed after them and cruel and brutal reprisal against the vietnammese who helped us and they could have gotten away. and he may have gotten away rhetorically in trying to make his guests feel at home. chief excutive officer, ask any vietnam veteran if they were fighting a tyrant or intellectual descendent of thomas jefferson the answer is union versal. he was a communist dictator and obsessed with consolidating power. and the president's statement is pandering. >> we are getting ready t-c

. >>> thomas jefferson said that those who most fear investigations are the ones who attack a prepress first. that's why a prepress is guaranteed and so that i can as a journalist help may fellow citizens the government is collecting all of their phone records and e-mail records and tapping into their facebook conversations and google chats and skype telephone calls and this is what journalism is about. shining a light on what the most powerful people in the country are doing to them and in the dark. we are going to continue to do that no matter what david gregory and his friends say. >> that's guardian columnist glen greenwald, deep pending his reporting on government spying. his actions causing a debate over activism and journalism. mark sullivan, public editor at the new york times, wrote this. quote, a real journalist is one that understands that a cellular level, and doesn't shy away from adversarial relationship between government and press, the very tension that america's founders had in mind with the first amendment. those who fully meet the description deserve to be respected

and for those who might have strong affinity for thomas jefferson? i pulled this out because as a former mount vernon person, we admittedly have a very healthy competition with monticello. so "thomas jefferson was a bastard"? you did the internet said you said that. [laughter] i could source it beyond that. and john quincy adams would have been a dream date. and then she said she liked complicated men. i knew i would like katherine. in her book, "a perfect union" she reveals a dolley madison loved by her contemporaries, demonstrated the power of partnership and articulated what i didn't find anywhere else, how a political wife's role is so important in helping their husbands achieve their goals. and it's often much more than what they wear. having read her work but never having the pleasure of seeing her present, i'm personally looking forward to it. professor clinton, your portrayal in your writing and quotes of mrs.?clinton are revealing and your biography is such a beautiful tribute to her. we all know the history of president lincoln and when you

out thomas jefferson's son-in-law. but he was crazy. >> and busy. >> the sitting vice president of united states. his burr murdered political enemy over politics. the last president had a little gun but ith the wasn't -- so i do think we rosy hue. have a we're at a -- we've been going hrough a bad patch in the last 16 years. but i don't think it's anything like the period we're talking or more so the period of the civil war. >> can i also answer a question slightly different way because you're touching on something that's very important people in the ur 18th century understood for need the o work, you official sphere of action, which would be the debates and the reaties and the pieces of paper. but you need what they call the social sphere. unofficial the sphere, which is sort of the sphere of process. social events. the dinner parties where people could compromise or discuss things and opose the could blame the wine or dancing if it didn't work out. you needed that sphere. because dern world, that sphere is almost alw

don and jefferson also learned they are probably out -- the warriors are probably out of the running for dwight howard. >>> let's talk about the pretty big cool down that we're feeling today. >> we dropped today. the hot temperatures have basicy moved out of the bay area. look what happened today. those numbers are dropping back down to the upper 70s and lower 80s. here's a look at the afternoon highs. san jose topped out at 75. san francisco was 62 degrees. we have the fog banking up at parts of the shore. that fog will increase in coverage for the over night hours. you can see some 60s and 70s tonight out towards fairfield. in san francisco it's 56 degrees. over the past few days, there's been a cool side. this transport the cold air inland. as this area moves in, there's a little rain in our forecast, and this will increase the fog first thing tomorrow morning. winds throughout the day tomorrow are 20 miles an hour. the upper 70s and lower 80s for afternoon highs tomorrow. this is the updated forecast model showing you the fog pattern tomorrow morning. lots of overcasts out there.

i don't know how many were around this summer but we started off with the opening of the jefferson street and then the bart strike and the 4th of july events and the kickoff of the america's cup and louie vuitton series and everything seems to be coming together to make it an incredible summer and it was gratifying this weekend to see the waterfront filled with people. of course on the 4th of july the weather was brilliant and everybody was out to enjoy it. the waterfront looked like it did on fleet week on that particular saturday where we had the championship game and fleet week and the america's cup's world series. it was wall to wall people at the park at least through pier 14 through up to 11:00 p.m. on 4th of july itself and on both sides of the embarcadero which is a unique event. we saw in the morning families around and teenager kids in the afternoons. our restaurants are full and in fact we're getting a lot of help from the chronicle who just this sunday in their food and wine section launched a series of profiles on port restaurants which they are doing to help us celebrate our

jefferson would love it. he loved cafes. >> hamilton he would have liked a strong fed, but he wouldn't have been a fan of bernanke. these men were individuals. >> i like that. i am tired of the founding fathers being stereo typed. >> they were always fighting. jefferson and adams -- >> they were always butting heads when they didn't have tremendous conversations about inventing things. that's what they did. they invented a lot of things. i have invented nothing but great humor for america. anthony, what would they like about this country? let's focus on the positive. >> back on the positives. ben franklin wa alibertine who liked to hang hot in france and play -- hang out in france and play with electricity. the advancements and the mingering of people -- mingling of people he would be into. >> he would say come to my pad and check out the ipad. >> he was a pimp. >> and he had two beds, didn't he? he would move from bed to bed jie. like lucy and ricky? >> no maybe this is urban legend, but when one bed got war

certainly franklin said that first, washington said it, jefferson said it. they said it in different ways. alexander hamilton saw with astounding clarity the proportions and direction the american economy would take and put in place the early institutions to facilitate that. and in, at the stages since then, sometimes it was possible simply to sit back and allow events to take their course because they were on a benign course as generally was the case between the civil war and world war i. the country just grew. out atact tracted up to a million immigrants a year in the years just before world war i, and there were astounding growth rates. in the 1880s, the economic growth rate was approximately 8% per year, and it was already from the start the largest economy in the world. it wasn't like china in our time having tremendous growth rates but from a very low base. it was the world's greatest economy when that decade began, and it still grew at an astounding rate. and huge increases in productivity accompanied by pioneering advances in almost every industry; t

neil: jefferson? >> absolutely. neil: what do you think? >> you should hold ceo of goldm sachs to same sta standard of ceo of san diego. >> it is public offers though. >> i don't care. neil: what don't you care about? >> if you violate the law, sexual harassment is, i i don't know car if you are in a management positn in managed or mayor of san diego? >> you don't put politicians to a slightly higher standard? >> i just' tse to do a good job, stay within the law. i am asking them to did a good job, if they cheat on their wives i do know care. but -- >> you know age old argument. god knows who else you will cheat on? >> we would not have a thomas jefferson, or a fdr or jfk, and a bunch of very good presidents in my view or bill clinton for thatatter,. neil: what do you make of that argument? it has raised other arguments, and one thing that. anthony wean ar weiner said we'd on. >> it up to voters in san diego case, the voter overwhelming' him to resign, you see in new york with weiner. neil: in past they elected him? >> well, that is true. b
