CSPAN2 Sisters First August 6, 2017
That. All the things they have said today that have moved me to tears that is easy to write because it meant so much to me. Not that it was not easy to write to feel guilty but is a crazy memory. But i will say our parents always said when theyre running for president we cried. And then this is not going to change that was id for all of us you can have a normal life so when we got in trouble everybody thinks of that stereotype. But my parents were furious and im sure they were disappointed but more than that they were sad that they promised theyd normalcy that was not delivered a pod. And looking back i am so happy that they allowed us to make mistakes imagine if we were perfect it would be horribly boring with these daughters had never made a mistake but could never stick out their town for example, or let their hair down but even now with two little girls i so glad they allowed us to make mistakes and learn about a bit the hand carrying and to bring life to it because had we not i dont know if i could be a good mom the three were to be one particular thing that it is okay to mess up. You write laura bush was the family closet hippie. She was. [laughter] she loves reggae. So we always had that playing. We had a number of experiences with our bomb in first grade that my mom took us and i will never forget it. I was still thinking about when i was nine. And begin that care package so it was a big deal to have a cd player but my mom would send me. I made her love it. She acts like she was not controlling but she loves it so much actually as a child child, was convinced she would leave my dad for him. And that was my theme song. What are you doing today . I am working for the today show it is fun and very ironic frankly because we hid and literally ran from the media. We used to sit in there and david say they told me not to go literally. So people throw it it there and that was true but i literally would run and sprint on the steps of the white house and run down bohol. Or hide from the media and our work for them which is so ironic but it shows that life is excepting but if you are so rigid what you want your life to me you dont experience that beauty and go socialist at we have a stereotype of the people that i work with in just i think i thought of her credit goes to what we tried to talk about ourselves and people are more complicated. This is not the first book. Thats true of also written to a Childrens Book for children. My mom is a little more complicated to work with she is a vivacious editor. Dont tell her i said that. I dont know if i have hit from the media. I think i am a very private person even writing this book was a leap but i am so proud of her to be honest and rob there were things that ive learned that we just wrote in silence. So that idea of additional attention on us in college was uncomfortable. It is ironic she is on tv now but when we were younger we were out with our friends trying to figure out what we wanted to do or the difference we wanted to make and starting our career and so much that is personal. So i would say that. The book comes out october 24. [inaudible] so it is a comfortable way to wake up every day for these people who are passionate. What about the sorority your fraternities . The women are victims . We have. Definitely we felt protective of president obama as girls. But we saw our little souls of the winner grandpa became president than when they left the white house and was the same age and our dad became president so a teenager is not easy but it is possible and rewarding. And we have sent open letters to them and have heard back and by the way i am so proud to be part of this group even though women. That we are a part of these awesome women who have each others backs which is part of the book. We are not leaving the men how to but. What is your experience . I hope is going through in president from bin his mind is his school and friends and playing sports or whenever he is interested in. And he is a kid. We should treat him like that. May not always have that moseley did and and you can say what you want but he did not make that decision but when people attack the children of of president if they dont have a say it makes a sad. Sisters first is the name of the book. But sometimes they do it is the buzzword. The book is out in october thanks. One that was a wonderful book called last call it is a history of prohibition of america and how that started those ancillary movements actually were pro prohibition and it created enormous violations of the law and frankly criminalize a lot of americans of a criminal underground in america with those good intentions is a wonderful book and one of the best histories. Talk about the American Revolution with the history of the violence of that revolution sometimes we sugar coat that like betsy ross and it was a wonderful time in some people didnt get it but it was far more contentious and the violence was people more americans died in the revolutionary war in the prison ship ban on the battlefield it was an extremely violent period and this is the history of that violence. For a historical novelist who writes about ancient rome and one of my favorite fiction authors and gets his history right. With the similar name the tudor history in Great Britain and also has a character who solves mysteries and i recognize him. Max hastings as a british historian especially world war ii and comes to the conclusion that of that ended the but of terms of a real network that was successful by any country and is a wonderful history of that science of the espionage. A the biography of hugo black is wonderful of the presence of the Supreme Court that gave us modern lot. Starting off with the kkk member in alabama showing that people did well and he was an incredible justice. This writer is the second of two volumes. And extraordinary ratings and very complex ways it is more complex the a new ones to the south. And between the border states and the deep south. So what would happen to the institution . It was dying out but it is a great history documented. A new biography of rasputin from russia was the last czar of russia and russian history takes a little getting used to because the names are daunting and along it talks about the of mysticism and was not this mythical character they there have these feelings and they use rasputin to justify that and this goes through the history very carefully. And an extraordinary book of stalin and hitler by the tens of millions of people who were murdered or succumb to the policies of these to criminals stalled and actually opposed the ukraine in the 1930s for millions of people died and that led to the welcoming of the nazis when hitler invaded 1941 that they could roll with the occupation is a fascinating history and very sobering and depressing because to think he did beings could do what was done in that part of the world. The best years of our lives is a fascinating book a wonderful prose book called the best years of their lives kennedy and johnson getting elected and reelected to congress bin johnson was in the senate prevailing and developed his nickname with the very close election highly contested in texas. And those that influence these three individuals of course, dominated the latter part of the 20thcentury with politics and then the story between lafayette and washington. Lafayette had a long career after the revolutionary war and tell lit went sour but the relationship almost like father and son was highly unusual for washington and a very distinctive and impressionistic relationship he was a great figure and remains so today. I just finish this book which is a new history of the world from a Central Asian point of view. So is now playing in the development of Natural Resources with the revision undertaking a fascinating history. War of the roses is from the history of the house of york and house of lancaster. With the tudor dynasty in Great Britain. We think of that dynasty longlasting but it wasnt. Ended the end was Queen Elizabeth the first but it would still leave a mark on modern britain history and finally to books i reading that i have not finished is this and the prose is targeted it is tough to get through and i will get through but i wish it was a more interesting narrative style but we think of it as a backward reactionary place but it was more vibrant that led to interesting Democratic Institutions and then the of fascinating novel ended is written in irish in the 40s translated into english and it saves this same concept and it is a series of narratives far those reflecting and Still Holding onto their grievances. And that is a fascinating reading and i really enjoying that. That is it for now
