andrew johnson to other people. so that poses a problem for a biographer right there. we don't have his inner voice, and with jefferson just 18,000 letters that he wrote over the period of his life and, you know, other kinds of documents and other things. and even though he remains an enigma to lots of people, there's still enough there to sort of craft some sense of what he's thinking, what he's feeling and who he was. johnson you are at a disadvantage because we don't really have that to the same extent. and the letters we have that show when he was a young man show lots of misspellings, lots of phonetic spellings of things, and it's difficult to wrap your mind -- i make him it was for me, difficult to wrap my mind around who he really was because we just don't have the kind of record that you would typically have. not leaving aside someone like jefferson but other people who were president, it's just not there. that's a big problem. and because we don't have lots of his letters, and there is not a huge repository

while johnson the first problem johnson didn't learn to write until he was in the late teens. his wife, he married early and reading and writing were very separate things. many people were she did not think they went together. neither of his parents but there is no record of people saying they were in a letter it. he did not become until he was a young man. that poses a problem. he was never very comfortable doing it. at one point he hurt his arm and he would explain that as a reason why he didn't write them as people think he was very self-conscious. most of the life was self-conscious. if you look at the papers favor many letters from johnson to other people that poses a problem for a biographer right there. we don't have his inner voice and other kinds of documents sewage remain the enigma of style to craft some sense of what he is feeling and whom he was. johnson is at a disadvantage because we don't have that to the same extent. the letters that we have showing misspellings and fanatics boeing's it is difficult to wrap your mind. >> it is not the typical record not just l

johnson is not totally responsible for this but johnson was president and in our system of government the president is symbolic leader. when the president doesn't lead it is a problem. we don't look to congress or the supreme court for leadership. you look to the person in the white house. it was tremendously important that he decided to throw the weight of his leadership power and capacity against the forces of reaction, people who did not want to transform american society and put us hundred years behind. so that is the story of johnson and his role in this particular era. >> thank you very much. [applause] >> i would like to open the floor for questions. please wait until the microphone is given to you and meanwhile, while the microphone is going to this individual here i am going to oppose the first question using the moderator's prerogative. my question is henry raymond and andrew johnson were both rather close to abraham lincoln, indicated support for lincoln and lincoln's policies but in the aftermath of lincoln's death they seemed to be trey his policy and vision. why? >> just

johnson is the authority. webster says the way i am going to replace johnson is to prove i am the authority that i can go back to anglo-saxon and he said women --wymen is closer to the anglo-saxon. he didn't know that much anglo-saxon himself. that wasn't his strong suit because definition and comprehensive english dictionary were strong but brought his life he endorsed a lot of eccentric spellings. some of them are in there as alternatives in 1828. by the time merriam-webster get hold of the dictionary they normalize everything to spelling you recognize today. >> you mentioned that noah webster was obsessive compulsive personality disorder. you don't think he was asked burger? >> in psychiatrist they talk about court morbidity and other similar. just kind of free to ways of looking at it. you could make a case. i never met him in the flesh. diagnosis is always an interpretation. i think my interpretation is one reasonable one. aspbergers would be another one. i am trying to capture this complicated person and

americans love samuel johnson. i root for the globe. johnson absolutely hated americans. he sent away to love all mankind except for americans. but americans love samuel johnson and everyone swore by the authority and there was little interest, but webster wanted to write the dictionary and he did it. his perseverance is truly admirable. >> this was webster's kerrick your and this was the challenge of biographer is to really understand the person and joseph al-assad no webster is not the stuff of american mythology. we let people like washington how he handled that theme with webster delegating brilliantly, just talking of her decision. webster isn't that way. he kind of pops up in that it becomes 50 he says no one under 45 should be allowed to vote. that just doesn't make any sense. and that's why joel porter says he's no joseph stalin. in her article on webster's annoying personality, she said -- she goes into a two-page site about a murderous tater. he wasn't evil man. he was a likable man. i guess the challenge was to understand him and i think yet excessive compulsiv

johnson was already there. it was the north the enemies who did not want to talk. after tet they agree to talk because after tet they really had nothing left. they were militarily weakened, and they were in danger of the u.s. escalate and attacking them, so they agree to talk to try to forestall that. but johnson was going to escalate anyway. general weaver, the chairman of the joint chiefs, had suggested this, general wes moore had called for more troops. a debate broke out in the administration, should we, should we. it went on for a long time. if we do escalate, how many troops quickly go over our troop cap? all of these little bureaucratic thing so basically for two once they argued it to death. and ultimately johnson, after news of this debate leaked to "the new york times," the great headlines about a secret escalation in the works, those kind of things, and johnson said the heck with it. will just go for more peace talks. and this time they had them. so, it wasn't that tet demoralize the united states. t

what about president johnson? would he have been so angry that his nemesis was repeating that he might try to get the nomination back? that sounds pretty absurd except in real life he did. there were five johnson operatives at the chicago convention including postmaster general and chief political guy. johnson's plan was to announce a soviet summit, fly to chicago, give a speech and think maybe he could shake those delegates lose. at an end his people said this is not going to work. if he did that without robert kennedy as a potential nominee you have to imagine or i have to imagine, the reason johnson didn't do this was the soviet union mated czechoslovakia, no way to announce the summit. there is a lot that place through but in talking about what is in this book as fiction grounded in what i think israel, there is a scene here that really pivots the nomination and basically kennedy, robert kennedy looking at grand park sees the demonstrators and he says i want to talk to them and the secret service is not happy

>> and johnson was a master. three being the white house tapes johnson's first weeks and months in office, i think michael did them, you see him talking to the seven years i have to do this i am getting incredible pressure and trucks to civil-rights leaders. he said i need you to come down here and put pressure on me so i can tell the seven years i have to do this. i am not sure kennedy had those skills. fell last five 4/6 months of kennedy's life was beginning to emerge from a cautious politician, not all that interested, he was in foreign policy. in then as a moral issue that is where they get so speculative but it is a good question. >> at this point* we're doing with john kennedy and the assassination. when i first read the book or that particular section within the first context of the first 15 pages where you hypothesize that johnson will become president, i was shocked at that and came to a different conclusion that the country would have been so shocked by that particular assassination that they would hav

martin luther king told lyndon johnson that, lyndon johnson listened as he argued, and lbj said to dr. king, go out there and make it possible for me to do the right thing. that is where real change comes. but the reason we have poets and the reason we both talked to artists and others is we fight back by celebrating what is good in our lives. the creativity of authors, the enthusiastic populism of general hightower, the restrictive journalism of lopez. when you read it biggio funny talking about -- when you leap -- when you read giovanni talking about love, you want to fight to save a species that make love and a world that is hospitable to the portrait of love. we fight back by celebrate what is best in our lives and our culture. it is not just politics or economics, although there are prophetic voice is in there about politics and economics. this book is as relevant today as when we did these interviews, but we also have to celebrate -- henry david thoreau, the great author of the 19th century, said it, "to affirm the quality of the day is the highest of the arts." and you have to

johnson did. they're not comparing apples and oranges. >> with images of buddha of they knew they were tibetan prayer flags. comparing those 2 these historical phrases, those are not from sacred texts, there from our founding documents. they don't represent any particular religion. they are historical in nature. >> hard to take that straight given the display of the word creator. there's a message meant to be conveyed. it is not an accident that mr. johnson is conveying what happened to be his personal views with regard to the existence and importance of god. to suggest these are a bunch of historical documents is just not how it is. >> i think it is, is particularly when you look at the context of the fact that the role religion played in the history of the nation. any different than a poster of mother teresa or martin luther king. i don't think there's a problem having those in the classroom. no one -- these are historical events. there are not quoting the bible or sacred texts. even creator in

governor johnson, another question for you. you said we should make it easier for immigrants to come here and work in the united states and that republicans should stop using scare tactics and vilifying immigrants and you refer to a, quote, amnesty grace period. what is that? >> first of all, i start with the premise that immigration is ultimately responsible for tens of millions of jobs. so creating tens of millions of jobs as opposed to taking away of jobs. i think we should make it as easy as possible to get a work visa. it would not be citizenship or a green card, but a background check and a social security occurred so taxes would be paid. immigration needs to be about work, not welfare. with regard to 11 million illegal imgrants here in this country, we need to recognize that the government's the main reason they are here, they have made it impossible to get a work visa. set up a grace period for a work visa -- not citizenship, or a green card, document the workers. so when it comes to building a fence across 2,000 miles
