you see george w bush and bill clinton becoming close. they're consciously becoming close they're making a larger statement to the public but jefferson with expansion and books on the on the louisiana purchase. jefferson as a writer in botanist, you know, jefferson's being a slave owner and his they and ann washington now reading about that realizing that there needs to be more emphasis to look at slave owning presidents. and what does that mean? you know, it's a very fertile field presidential history. right on the 20th century. i've never written a book on a president and in fact, brian and our talk sometimes people will say to me boy you do a lot of different topics doug you jump around. it's like really i mean, yes hunter thompson lived with jimmy carter's house. i mean, i'm writing the same era the of things. i'm not writing about founding fathers. i've been really writing about america in the 20th century, but more specifically america since world war two but something like david mccalla will do truman and john. or john michiel murr

bush, land missioner of texas on my street, son of jeb bush and george w. bush i would like to write about, i believe he has two stories that could be told that haven't been properly, if he's interested in making his legacy look better. and that is the bullhorn moment the story of how he was in florida, told about 9/11 and the air force one had to fly to different military bases and came to washington and we were under siege and how he pulled the country together and then stood on the rubble of the trade center with that bullhorn moment and then through a strike at yankee stadium. i would do one week of look at george w. bush's immediate response to 9/11 which was really quite inspiring story. >> what do you think of his post-presidency. >> well the second i would do is his work with aids in africa. he saved a lot of lives working with all sorts of people, you know, bono, and it's real lives saved, getting the money there to fight the campaign, against aids in africa. he didn't have to do that. it wasn't constituent politics, that i think came out of his ch

so ronald reagan and george h. w bush, 40 years on how? because the gap between american perception and global reality. to discuss that now joined by luke sheen. an anchor with china states, rom, tv, and channel. she has great pleasure for me to talk to you. are you big for your work? thank you very much for making the time for me. thank you for the invitation. yes, i come from c g t n. we call ourselves the international television of china. i mentioned you're working for a space run channel without any judgment. i myself work for a space on the channel. and in fact, the great value in, in a national effort to try to shape the global story. but i noticed that when you talked to some of our western colleagues, they, they're always a bit skeptical. it's not condescending, all of your affiliation. if this your installation somehow influences the quality of your work. you have you have any, anything to say that i the reason why i have to correct people almost all the time .

and that george w. bush was president democrats controlled at least one house of congress. and baker understood that dealmaking and then dealing with soviets that margaret thatcher was as big of an obstacle and then is at the moment? and then they say we need jim baker they are just fundamentally different than they were at that time. and then to be smart about politics that then he could not overcome the structural shift with the situation we are in now. >>co let's discuss the controversy. the debate gate and the stealing of jimmy carter's. that may not have happened if appointed and part of caspar weinberger and others involved in the iran-contra cover-up and then empowers leanne atwater and with that hardline politics. in the 1991 goal for the election in florida. it is an amazing list. [laughter] >> i cover that in 30 seconds? >> and then religiously determined so the first to have arr james madison baker and then not to embarrass the family and what he may or may not have had a hand in it was particularly good to keep a distance. and with his own friends and the bush f

bush, george w bush didn't have time to rebound from his numbers so he left after second term and went to a shed and started painting beautiful portraits. that's what people should do. they should reflect. [inaudible] kennedy: because of bill clinton's transformational ability and he was young and crazy and a political animal. the 90s were awesome. joe biden, i want to talk with you more on this so maybe we will do a podcast because you and i talk about this, there are areas where you and i are not far apart and i think you could make that interesting. olivia, if people are so mad at republicans and democrats and don't want to be terrorists by white men, why aren't libertarians offering political solutions? >> i think the libertarian does have some issues and a lot of issues but overall the best choice between all three parties, there's a two-party duopoly, people would disagree but what's really holding them back is no fault of their own, i think if they are given a fair chance on the debate stage in terms of getting on the ballot and we would see real change and people would start to

she george w bush. whom she told me was the worst present may a president who made the worst mistake in american history, which is saying a lot which is the iraq war. she did not have a high view of george w bush in his presidency and even though it cost her members to push to the legislation. she did it because she the because the alternative just looked to him uh, tell us she took on a particularly like iconic status during the trump years and walking out the you know, the orange coat with the big collar of shredding out of the of the white house to the cameras there. do you think that she had trump's number because she'd encountered him and she'd seem in him in baltimore. she'd seen him and san francisco politics. she'd encountered people like him before. well, donald trump's very distinctive figure are there. i mean, there are people i'm not sure i'd know a lot of people who are like don't even jersey and he's like everybody you go before land. he's like everybody knows that if you grew up in jersey

yeah george w bush. both of them did a lot of preparatory work and biden's case obviously to get to 206 people in in the white house. it was a lot of personnel work than a decision to focus on presidential appointees who did not require senate confirmation. he also worked on a developing information and strategies on issues that may came up. such as the date went under a heading of unconventional challenges what an unconventional challenges. could they possibly face and then assigning people to work on those challenges flesh them out and then develop mitigating strategies. so the preparatory work early is not just mandated by the government. it's also good practice by the candidates. that's tremendously helpful. i mean my read on your really interesting paper martha, is that the candidates and the government have put so much more? resources and attention into transitions in this 21st century and yet the transitions have for the most part been less smooth. which i think is a paradox that is worth explorin

these countries were targeted by the george h w bush, or george w bush, the senior vice president of ronald reagan and bribed with hundreds of millions of dollars. and these monies were given the countries in exchange for their acquiescence and their submission to american military and economic and political objectives. no ring of nato military bases is being formed around russia. the u. s. nato have over 600 military bases weld wide. russia has just 18, but the west still claims that russia has aggressive intent by turning this russians. the soviets, and to this dangerous bo, you man, there wants to take over the world. that was a conscious strategy to create this image of the soviets. as out for world conquest, which was not the case, then bar now with nato should have died, but they will give it meaning. it is about infected, created by nato nato's business machine. because you must remember, if nato disbanded shareholders in the united states and elsewhere in lodge obs companies would lose millions and millions, they'd only have one yacht instead of 2 yards each. there. oh dear,

for somebody like george w. bush, that had a liberating aspects. he's a deeply political animal, he cared a lot about the 2006 elections, he didn't go in with any pride of place. if some candidate said it will hurt me if you show up, he didn't take it badly. he put everything he could into the benefiting from their health. we took it in 2006, he didn't go into the fetal position, he had seen political cycles, and go, and it was always his style to keep eyes forward and do the right thing. that's why mention the second term, there's a certain liberation of just do the right thing. do what you think is right for the country and let the politics sort themselves out. the politics is about persuading people that you want to do the right thing and you are acting in their right interest. the policy is doing within the people's interests. i was super proud to be around the day after election day. bush was at his desk thinking about what the right thing you was. after election day on 2008 when president, who had supported john mccain and wanted john mccain
