perhaps the solitary block on george washington's character, in fact, washington, d.c. was one of the greatest evils the people of the united states suffered. it should be destroyed and annihilated. that's all from the house debate. members of both side indicated their awareness that the decision to come south to the potomac had been a matter of barter. a north carolina representative threatened that if the removal bill passed the house, he would immediately call for the repeal of 1790 funding act. after a week of consideration, a motion to continue debate failed 5 1-35. on august 24th, 1814, british general robert ross burned several buildings in washington. americans at the time, and as pointed out this morning, british after the fact considered it retaliation for the american burning of government buildings at york, canada. perhaps only one government building and perhaps not the american army after all. this provided the burning of the public buildings provided opponents of the location with an opportunity to argue for removal without having to did he mean the city.

george washington turned to peer long phone to design the city of washington that would house our federal government institutions, and he was a frenchman who had come here in the passion of the revolutionary war. we had many supporters from the french. he was one of them, and he designed a plan based on democratic principles. first of all, he selected the highest point that was to be in the city of washington to serve as the site of the legislative ranch, and this is very important. after all, our founding fathers had rebelled against the monarchy of king george iii, and what they were trying to establish was the importance of democracy and the power of the people. so the highest elevation was set for the legislative house. that became known as the united states capital. been banneker selected a site right in the heart of the city for the executive mansion as it was then called. this was to signify that the president was to live and work in the heart of the people that he was to serve. to this day, the executive mansion or the white house, as it has been known since the presidency of theo

washington. helped createon many institutions for african-americans such as the national negro business league, ideas oppositions to his during his life and cents. professor fontenot compares the ideas and tactics of booker t. washington and martin luther king jr. this class is about an hour and 20 minutes. >> remember we have been talking about booker t. washington and some of you disagree that washington in fact is a similar -- seminal figure that i have insisted that he is. because i made a statement in class that many of you disagreed with when i said washington was the most important and most influential african-american leader until the election of president barack obama. he is even more significant in some ways because booker t. washington was never elected to a public office. president barack obama was elected president of the united states and he is not a black leader. he is a leader of the free world and also the leader of course of our country. when we look at african-american leadersh

why can't washington do better? >> i think washington doesn't do better by them because washington isn't trying to do better by them. if you look at washington as a whole, i think this is the fundamental problem in our system right now. washington works for those who can hire armies of lobbyists, armies of lawyers, and get just the rules they want. it doesn't work for families. raise the minimum wage. nobody should work full time and still live inpoverty. minimum wage nationally hasn't been raised in over seven years. we need to make sure we have real rules on equal pay to equal work. we need to lower the interest rate on student loans. in every case, we, in the united states senate, have a majority. all of the democrats have voted in favor of this. occasionally, we even pick up a republican. the republicans have filibustered in the senate. they won't even bring things to a vote in the house of representatives. this is really a case where one party has said the usual rules of governing, you know, we'll come together

and, in fact, washington, d.c. exist.t under the constitution and then under a specific act of congress designated that maryland would cede a certain part of their in which the nation's capitol would be built. this would be a ten-year process because they were projecting this is going to be one of the grandest cities to exist in the time and it would take ten years to make this of the reason they said maryland and virginia is because these were slave states. southerners who control the -- and dominated the colonies f the 13 sure that the south and slavery in particular was being protected in this process. conceived this notion of the white o build house and the capitol in the whole city. now, who's going do this building. now george washington initially europeans.ted white and they put the call out but they're not a lot of white want to get in a boat and come over to the new country rocks trees and throw out on the side of the road. so they had very, very little recruiting. so they turned to who they turn to, who b

washington washington. they were closely connected. that was part of the inspiration, one of those things that built up toward realizing that we needed a stronger union if we were going to have prosperity at home, respect abroad. a future did lie in a stronger union. those were the three. you could say future and they shared those concerns very much. any other questions? one more i'm told by the person who runs this whole place really, despite what other people and he does an amazing job. >> washington sounded encredibly busy up there on the map. what was he doing back at mount vernon? >> he was restoring his place to profitability. what do they say that needs to get done? give it to a busy person. that's certainly true with washington. think of the other founders like washington, madison, john adams, ben franklin, alexander hamilton hamilton was keeping a law practice going while he was writing the constitution. i fear the general reputation of washington out there in the land is that he's like a wax figur

washington. not only with tuskegee institute did booker t. washington make a significant impact. we talked about washington and his impact as well with other -- 's, thatcall now hbcu because of washington's influence he was able to open up opportunities for other hbcu's to become land-grant colleges. to get not only land, but moneys from the state and the federal government. and because of booker t. hbcu's becameny proficient and also viable. although by 1900, tuskegee institute boasted an endowment of $1.5 million. that was a lot of money back then. that is a lot of money now, as far as i'm concerned. that was a lot of money back then to have as an endowment, especially for a black university. then, booker t. washington starts the national negro business league. here's a picture of the national negro business league. started again the process of moving the african-american to independence through the establishment of businesses that would be viable. it is important to understand that washington

washington was a liminal space. women could have written so freely about native men in this way in the west in the 19th century. it would have been more threatening. because there was a perception even at the time that there was not a huge native presence in the city or that any native presence in the city was a transient, temporary presence, allowed it to be more risquÉ. it was less of an affront to any sort of racial order. i'm excited to see if i can find more examples of that. or isn you're working concluded, what do you hope to do with your findings? >> this is a book project. i published my first book with university of north carolina and i'm hoping to work with the press again on this book. there is an amazing visual aspect as well. part of the project is about a movement of people. in addition to a standard monograph, which will focus on washington dc and not only will the native people in the historical record be the main characters, the city itself will be a main character. it is a place of study. it is a

to the frustration of much of his party's del quation in washington -- delegation in washington, but conservatives balked because it included tax increases. he insisted on that. in hindsight, was conservative inflexibility on this matter a mistake? >> yes. yes, it was. social security is one of the most successful programs of legislation that's ever been enacted in the united states of america. and it's not really in trouble. they want you to think that it is, but it's not. it needs a little bit of help. probably all we really need to do is to remove the cap on payroll taxes, people that make more than $117,000 a year are not paying into the social security system. i think that ought to be removed. that may do the job by itself. but if not, what would be left would be a very small percent increase in the payroll tax, which according to the government's figures would solve the problem for the united states government for 75 years. $5 trillion of the national debt is because the federal government borrowed the money from the social security trust fund and the medicare trust fund. if we

they are frustrated with washington and they should be. -- i have not been in washington very long, but i have been there long enough to know washington needs change. it could use more of the comments as i learned growing up on a farm. it could use leadership and courage. washington simply is not working for arkansas families. wages are down, prices are up, obamacare is a disaster it, and we are $18 trillion in debt. parents are worried about their kids future. so am i. my wife and i are expecting our first child. we do not want her baby to have a future that is less prosperous and less safe. that is the future of obama's policies. less prosperity, lesson safety and security. senator pryor has voted with 93% of the time and he cast a deciding vote for obama care. there is a better way. let's get the economy going. let's for po obamacare. let's balance the budget. let's rebuild the military. fors stop apologizing america. cotton, the 188 fighter wings mission was previously changed. it may have been transferred out of state. the river valley was promised new jobs when drones were added t

they don't need washington, d.c. tying strings to it. >> the idaho public school system needs hevment no question about it. we spend less per pupil than any other state in the country, less than even mississippi. idaho schools do need help. i agree with the senator, though, that when we get help from the federal government we need to minimize the regulations and the strings attached to the money that comes from the federal government. some of the -- the programs are well-intentioned but oftentimes with the federal government there is excessive regulations. one with of the things that i bring to the table is having worked inside the federal government and having worked at the s.e.c., i've got an understanding of these run-away bureaucracies and agencies and how we need to keep them in check and not let them overregulate various aspects of our lives, including education. >> let's go to our panelists now. doctor, you'll direct your question beginning with mr. mitchell. >> my question is, what kind of democrat are you? a

the women said no, as long as the treaty cloth is coming from washington the street -- from washington to be distributed, there's a chance they will remember the rest of the articles of the treaty. clothinteresting cheap could be very important. we have used the treaties and discussion many times. every time there was a new president, we bring the wampum belts and described to him this is the nature of our relationship. i think that came to an end right after 1924. does anybody know what happened then? they passed a law that declared we would be citizens of the united states. you can'thinking, have an international treaty with your own citizens. so there was this shift in american thinking. if we just make them citizens, maybe things will change. they were coming down here because we said we don't want our relationships the federal government terminated, but our relationship is in these wampum the littlen amount of goods that flow to our community. the paper treaties are important manifestations of that. sometimes what it says and what we think it says are different things. at the same

you've been in washington for 47 years. during that period of time the number of undocumented people in this country has grown from 1 million to over 11-1/2 million. our debt has grown from under $1 trillion to over $18 trillion. in the last decade you even voted to support funding for the bridge to nowhere in alaska. as it relates to the affordable care act i've been very clear from the beginning. i didn't support the affordable care act when it was passed. the senator wants to talk about my campaign contributions. in 2010 i gave a campaign contribution to scott brown who was supposed to be the deciding vote against the affordable care act. and the reason i didn't like it is because i thought the affordable care act was expanding a broken system. we pay for quantity in this country and not for quality. we need to fundmently change the incentives so that we can deliver better quality care at a lower price. >> thank you, sir. rebuttal. >> my opponent's friend harry reid, the person he contributed money to, and his president,

that's the washington post's case. every man, woman, and child in cuba should be punished by a united states embargo, because the washington post is unsatisfied with cuba's investigation of a car accident. here is the washington post's demand. the precise details of what happened are unknown and need to be cleared up by a credible investigation. the washington post offers no definition of what a credible investigation is. cuba has already investigated the case and convicted the driver of the car of vehicular manslaughter, the vehicular manslaughter of the passenger, a cuban dissident who was himself opposed to the embargo. it is in his name that the washington post wants to continue the embargo, that he was opposed to. the washington post believes that our foreign policy with cuba should be based entirely on the word of one politician from spain, angel cormeiro, in which the man was killed. the driver said he didn't see a sign indicating dangerous road conditions and he drove into a tree. he was allowed to go home to s

it's a pathetic excuse by "the washington post" on a piece of reporting by "the washington post." they do not have the courage yet or the integrity to acknowledge what it did wrong in framing dr. melineck's comments for "the washington post" readers. and the only reason "the washington post" ran this correction today is because i exposed "the washington post's" terrible reporting here on this program. we can hope that this is the last time i have to force one of america's great newspaper fos rewrite their reporting on the killing of michael brown. the reporters at "the new york times" and "the washington post" whose mistakes i've exposed who are exposed know a lot more than i do know a lot of things. i wrote a book about the illegal and legal use of police force. there is no subject that i know better than police use of deadly force. since "the new york times" graciously accepted my criticism of their reporting, i have not found fault with any of their reporting in the michael brown case. knowing that critics like me are looking over their shoulders has sharpened "the times" appro

george washington wanted a neoclassical city. he picked the design of the white house and for the capital. he wanted a marble city. they've been in philadelphia. they even renamed a lot of the physical features in the new washington, d.c., after famous roman places. so jenkins hill became capital line hill. and gooseberry creek became the tiber river that ran through the middle of washington. they wanted to give a stature to this new government. the first major republic since the roman republic in their eyes. this was a new city for a new government. it was mostly tobacco fields and empty spaces. so they gave it a grand name and planned out major streets. that was the style. it slowly built the city. in the 1890's, there was a major exposition in chicago, the white city they called it, because it looked like a white, marble roman forum. it was mostly made of papier-mÂchÉ, and it was just a temporary exposition for the columbus centennial, quincentennial. but that inspired the construction of new buildings in washington. union s

washington, d.c. did not exist. underthe constitution and a specific act of congress in 1790 it was designated that virginia and maryland would see a part of their territory in which the nation's capital would be built. a 10 year process. they were projecting this would be one of the grandest cities to exist in the world at the time. it would take 10 years to make this happen. now, part of the reason they said maryland and virginia was these were slave states. southerners who controlled the politics of the 13 colonies wanted to make sure that the south and slavery in particular was protected in this process. notion of 10d this years to build the white house and the whole city. who is going to do the building? george washington initially said he wanted white europeans. they put the call out. there were not a lto g over thee over to the new country and did trees and throw rocks. success very little recruiting. they turned to who they usually turn to, who built most of the grand bill during this -- grand buildings, peo
