adams said jefferson fears the one and adams fears the few. he was obsessed by aristocracy, even though he is one of them. notionion, jefferson's of aristocrat is talented and virtuous, like himself. he assumed that people, once educated, they will elect people like themselves. jefferson was confident of the populace. people wouldar become demagogues. adams was more fearful of democracy. he thought they would soon become corrupt and partisan and we would have to adopt lifetime ,enure for the president eventually making them her at a terry, following the english model. the question is, have we reached that point in our elections? he would certainly believe, i told you so. this is what happens when you have to much democracy. jefferson had none of those fears. brian: you wrote although adams -- he neveron doubted that need society had for christianity. mr. wood: jefferson had contempt for organized religion. he made a couple of mistakes publicly, one in his notes on virginia. , my neighbor had -- my neighbor believes 20 gods and it does not brea

adams accepts that. now, joe ellis read a letter that misread it, so he thinks adams doesn't agree with jefferson. i think he is wrong about that. it was your largest footnote. gordon: it had to be explained because it makes adams look bad. it makes him look like you was dishonest. those that he was saying something to jefferson but something else to some of the house. brian: we better not leave the mecklenburg declaration without explaining it. gordon: into was almost word for word, some of the word to jefferson's declarations were there. it added into question. well, adams kind of liked that at first. at this point, you see jefferson is getting all of this fame. jefferson had no idea he would become famous. bike 1815 or so, he is seen as the author of the declaration of independence and all atoms can say is, the author? he is just a draftsman. use jealous, upset at the fame coming to this man. jefferson comes to realize, he writes to his son-in-law, look, the desk on which i wrote the declaration is go

adams loves it. he think it's pretty good because it seems to fit his own description of what a good government should be. jefferson is appalled by it. the power of the president is too great, he sees the president as a version of a polish king, a polish king was elected for life, serves for life, and then dies. then the aristocrats would elect a new king. that is he thought the president of the united states would be. now, washington only served two terms. he couldn't wait to get back to mount vernon. otherwise he might have stayed in office until he died. if he hadn't been what he is, if he hadn't been george washington who really was not someone who loved power. so he leaves after his second term. he could have stayed on if he wanted to. and so that's how jefferson thought the presidency would evolve. it would be like a polish king, serve for life. brian: there are threads through your book, britain versus france, aristocracy versus commoners. where were they on both of those? explain what an aris

adam: be well, sir. liberal hollywood celebrities rallying against the gop tax cuts even though they now know it benefits 143 million americans. comedian rosie o'donnell telling house speaker paul ryan to and these are her words, go to hell on christmas day. her comments are coming up next. they appear out of nowhere. my secret visitors. appearing next to me in plain sight. hallucinations and delusions. these are the unknown parts of living with parkinson's disease. what stories they tell. but for my ears only. what plots they unfold. but only in my mind. over 50% of people with parkinson's will experience hallucinations or delusions during the course of their disease. and these can worsen over time, making things even more challenging. but there are advances that have led to treatment options that can help. if someone you love has parkinson's and is experiencing hallucinations or delusions, talk to your parkinson's specialist. because there's more to parkinson's. my visitors should be the ones i want to

adam: going to be cold. i think you would agree living in new york city, it's like riding the 6 train on any weekday, a few of your best friends. reporter: you are right. adam: bryan, thankful to have you there. you are out in the cold, we're warm in studio. all the best to and you a happy new year. >>> for more on other cities preparing for the new year's celebration, joined by the co-founder of diligence, private intelligence and security firm and former cia operative mike baker. new york city planning tightest new year's eve security after the deadly attacks that have taken place, but isis is promising to kill people who are inebriated. is the united states, is new york city, are we taking the threats seriously enough? >> not just new york, but as the report just mentioned, all around the country and all around the world for these massive celebrations for new year's eve. the unfortunate reality is, we've had a lot of experience in understanding how to improve security in beefing up the resources necessary

during this time, he is nominated by john adams. john adams is seceded by a series of democratic republicans. they are all looking to lay claim to the constitution. they'll put supreme justices on the court to limit the position of the federal government. but marshall, through his openness to compromise, helped forge the court together. one of the great innovations was to move beyond the practice were each justice would write his own opinions, to instead issuing opinions of the court. marshall writes the vast majority of the courts decisions. unlike today, they tend to be unanimous even on divisive issues. the first artifact we see here is the court decree from a case in 1824. the state of new york issues a monopoly to steamboat operators. the question is how broadly do we read the federal government's power over the economy. this debate goes back to the washington administration. what marshall does is he views it broadly. he says even covers things like navigation on the waterways and the operation of steamboats. therefore, he magn

adam: the race is on. home owners scrambling to prepay property taxes for next year because the new tax law puts a $10,000 cap on the amount a person can deduct for property taxes, home owners in high-tax states won't be able to deduct as much as in the past. >>> in a radio interview, former president obama warning about the danger of social media being divisive. here's what he said. >> all of us in leadership have to find ways in which we can re-create a common space on the internet. one of the dangers of the internet is that people can have entirely different realities. they can be cocooned and information that preinforces current biasses. it's harder to be as obnoxious and cruel as people can be anonymously on the internet. adam: our next guest said it was president obama the divisive one during his time in office. remember this? >> one of the few regrets of my presidency, the rancor among the parties hat gotten worse instead of better. >> for actions we can take without congress. >> i've got a pen and

it ended with adam packing to leave. saskia went through his things and saw a hidden handgun and said, what's the deal? he said he was going to take it to sell it because he would need money. on top of the other pressures, they have no money. she just held the gun. he came out with a shotgun and really tried to jam it at her. to get her goat so much that she would pull the trigger and kill him. saskia said she wanted to, she wanted this over, not only to pull the trigger once, she wanted to pull the trigger twice. that is what it had come to. instead, she steps onto the porch and screams something like, be a man. she goes on the porch and comes back. a few minutes later, he is nowhere in sight. she searches the house and finally goes downstairs into the basement. the worst room in the house, this furnace room, where adam sometimes would do some work. there he was sitting with a shotgun against his chin. you know, it went on for a while until she finally got him to put the gun away. but, one more day in their lives, right

as i noted earlier, adams offer john jay his job back. in fact, appointed him. did not ask them first, appointed them. john jay said no, i'm not going to be chief justice again and that is when he went to john marshall. over the course of our history, americans have tended to front upon double duty. the president trump wanted to appoint chief justice robert to negotiate a treaty, it would be odd. i mentioned oliver ellsworth. i will mention justice robert jackson, pointed by harry truman to serve at the number of trials. he took a leave of absence. he was not here 1945-1946, he was at nuremberg prosecuting nazi. justices from time to time have given presidential advice. it can be frowned upon even if it is not in the constitution. we should not encourage or just because there's nothing in the constitution that speaks to. those of your posts are double duty might be wondering, what can be done? the answer is, something can be done. the senate and block appointments. if the president nominated chief justice john roberts to negotiate a treaty, the public can say no

hi, adam. >> hi, adam. >> reporter: all the acts are warming up. one thing this year that i know that a lot of performers are happy about is the weather and how warm it is because you've got a lot of performers who aren't wearing a whole lot so to speak, they don't have these beautiful costumes that they do not want to cover etch and these the are on edge movement dancers from oaks, pennsylvania, this is their seventh year in the parade in a row. they always do a fantastic time and as you can see they got their dancing down, they're doing a little preview for us tonight but again, they're just one of hundreds of acts that will be in the parade tonight. let's take a look at the forecast 'cause, again, temps are absolutely on par, a little bit above normal here for this time of year. 52 right now in philadelphia, 50 in allentown, 52 millville, 51 in cape may and a little cooler in the poconos at 39 degrees. as we take a look at satellite and radar, all looking good here as well. we've got that high pressure that is coming in from the west so locally

john adams adams try to negotiate his way out of it. he sent three emissaries to france. they met with the french minister of affairs. an animator told them, you will need -- an intermediate or told them they would have to give to. money if they wanted this was the xyz affair. he came back without accepting the bribe. people work upset with france -- were upset with the french. eventually, series of statutes were passed allowing americans to attack certain french naval vessels. that story of foreign service did not succeed, do not work out so well, but apparently john adams was impressed with john marshall. he offered to make john marshall secretary of war. john marshall said no. john adams sent his name to the senate anyway will stop before the senate can act, the secretary of state position opened up and john marshall finally said yes. finally agreed to serve in the andal executive department not just as an emissary. as secretary of state, john marshall successfully oversaw the negotiate for peace with france. the convention of 1800. he also help rebuild the federalist

so adam was cool, all those things. he led in the congress until he was unceremoniously put out of congress in the late 1960's. adam, unfortunately or fortunately, had a little trouble in an island called bimini. that seems to be a very sticky place for politicians. both he and presidential candidate gary hart both probably got caught on the monkey business, let me put it that way. again, the father-son business is political. martin luther king jr. is the son of martin luther king senior and was the grandson of the second pastor of the ebenezer baptist church. that is the line of succession. his brother albert, named after his grandfather, was also a baptist minister. the kind of ways that one learns leadership is in the kind of context of the ecclesial politics. how to galvanize people, how to bring people together, how to win a majority. all those things are useful when you go into electoral politics, whether you are the mayor. of course, we don't live far from kansas city here. we have a sitting congressperson repres

so adam was cool, all those things. until he the congress was unceremoniously put out of congress in the late 1960's. adam, unfortunately or fortunately, had a little trouble in an island called bimini. that seems to be a very sticky place for politicians. both he and presidential bothdate gary hart probably got caught on the monkey business, let me put it that way. again, the father-son business is political. martin luther king jr. is the son of martin luther king senior and was the grandson of the second pastor of the ebenezer baptist church. that is the line of succession. his brother albert, named after his grandfather, was also a baptist minister. the kind of ways that one learns leadership is in the kind of context of the ecclesial politics. how to galvanize people, how to bring people together, how to win a majority. whenhose things are useful you go into electoral politics, whether you are the mayor. of course, we don't live far from kansas city here. we have a sitting congressperson representing the city of kan

adam shapiro at federal reserve. he has very latest what the fed has decided. adam? reporter: as expected the federal reserve is raising interest rates by a quarter of a percentage point from 1.125 to 1 1/2%. two fomc members, evans and kashkari voted against the increase. the fed is keeping forecast for three rate increases in 2008 -- 2018. the fed is raising out look of gdp to 2.5% in 2018. that is up from 2.1%. however in 2019, expects gdp to fall to 2.1% n 2020 to fall to 2%. sees no change in inflation, keeping its forecast 1.9% in 2018, not hitting desired 2% threshold until 2019. quotes from the statement. 12 month basis overall inflation and inflation for items other than food and energy have declined this year and are running below two%. hurricane-related disruptions and rebuilding affected economic, employment and inflation but have not materially altered the outlook for the national quon my. the committee continues to expect with gradual adjustments in the stance of monetary policy economic activity will expand at a moderate pace. to recap this, trish, the

adam clayton powell jr. adam clayton powell jr. will inherit the church. this is a very interesting thing. churches and religion become -- in a number of religions become the family business. so if i'm the son or daughter of a rabbi, i might become a rabbi. if i'm the son or daughter of a baptist minister, i might become a baptist minister. and i will learn, even if i don't become that, i will learn politics at the foot of my father or grandfather or whoever it was. adam clayton powell was this sort of social gospel. he had all kinds of -- like father divine, running roughly contemporary, he has all kinds of social operations coming out of abisidian church looking for people who are desperate for the good life. but people have to service their congregation in ways at all kinds of levels. the church functions as a social service unit. this is his son. adam clayton powell jr. playboy, baptist minister, married to jazz and the stage actresses and in 19 41, he was elected on the democratic ticket as new york city's first black city council member. after servin

and sure enough, henry clay, when he becomes secretary of state under president john quincy adams, adams signs into law a new tariff, the tariff of 1828, raising the tariff from 25% to 45%. that's one heck of a tariff, 45%. why do they do that? to protect american manufacturers and textile goods. clay also says, we need federally funded internal improvements, using federal dollars to finance the building of roads, canals, bridges, and so forth. and then finally, clay says, we need to recharter that bank of the united states. unlike jefferson or excuse me, unlike hamilton, however, clay frames his defense of the bank of the united states in common man rhetoric. hamilton said the bank is good for financial interests, right. clay says the bank is good for farmers. the bank is good for mechanics, for manufacturers. the bank is good for the country as a whole. we need to recharter this bank and there's the whig party platforms, the whigs support clay's american system. the whigs support utilizing the powers of the federal government to stimulate economic activity and they adopt a broad interp
