but they're not sure kennedy will win. jackd fly to hyannis port to be with the kennedy clan. [sabato] just about everybody on both sides knew that this was going to be an extremely close election and, so, everybody was nervous. none more so than richard nixon, who casts his vote with his wife pat in california and then makes a break for the border. nixon was gloomy as usual, thought he was going to loss, went off with a pal to mexico... ...to drink margaritas and to desert the press. essentially, throughout the day, 'they kept getting reports, good and bad. 'they didn't know what they meant. no-one ever does.' in the evening, the first returns were very pro-kennedy. [crowd] we want kennedy! we want kennedy! [evan thomas] 'kennedy wins connecticut, 'and the network broadcasters are saying' that it might be a landslide. 'but by midnight, the picture is changing' and nixon is starting to pick up midwestern and western states and it's clearly gonna go down to the wire. the great shock of the night for the kennedy forces and the fi

i was at the kennedy presidential library, i found documents that for the first time show that jack kennedy was involved in securing that pulitzer prize. you saw it in that quote, the story has often been that kennedy's father was the one pulling the strings behind the scene. but that is not true. jack kennedy wanted th pulitzer prize. there are multiple times when he brought up the prize. he told another historian, "i would rather win a pulitzer prize than be president." and so because he had this strong desire for literary fame, even though he didn't really want to do literary work, he got himself the prize. and in new york city, in washinon dc, people have general gossiping, did kenne really right that book? i wonder who wrote that book, how much money they are getting from thoseoyalty checks. but then the pulitzer changed the equation. it made it a moral question and an ethical qstion. and readers realized this, too. when i was at the kennedy presidential library, i looked at the letters that kennedy was receiving in 1957, and librarians were sending him letters. school teachers were se

jack kennedy said that you can lo life with a great deal of pride saying i served navy, and people sawuld be good to do. president reagan used to say that people spend a lifetime wondering whether they ever made a difference, u.s. marines don't have that problem. people look and say, this is something good. le want to do something bigger than themselves, they want to support a higher calling, but they need to be convinced that that missioncome. with me as president, it will come first. we will be a strong country. the bad guys will be on retreat. not because we are trying to get but it will become clear that if you are -- if you are friends with us, you will be a great friend. if you are hostile to us, don't mess with us because you will regret that you ever did.

you know, jack kennedy said you can look back on your life with a great deal of pride saying i servedhe been a veteran of the navy and it's like yeah, this is something that would be good to do. president reagan used to say that people spend a lifetime wondering whether they ever made the difference. u.s. marines don't have that problem. people look and they say yeah, this is something good. so people want too something bigger than themselves. they want to support a higher calling but the need to be convinced that that mission is going to come first in w come f. we will be a strong country and the bad guys will be on retreat not because were out there trying to get involved in conflict but because it's going to be clear if you are friends with us you kind of great friend. if you're hostile to us don't mess with us because you would get that you ever d [applause] >> several years ago we dealt with covid. an t out that american is funding wuhan lab and nobody seems to give a crap about this. >> i do. >> and died in just wondering, this is a biological weapon. we now have a vaccine that

end quote. >> jack kennedy is a fine young fellow, very personable fellow, but he isn't as good as thatublic relations campaigmakes him t to b he is the only man in history that i know who won a pulitzer prize on a book which was ghostwritten for him. host: pretty tough stuff there. this is 1950 seven, before he sought the whi house, but obviously aspirational. were people debating this conct at the time after he'd won the pulitzer prize? craig: e pulitzer pri was a turning point and it is important to understand but in the historof the book, but alson understanding kennedy abscs psychology. so the book comes out in 1956 and over the course of that year, it is a hit. everything you can want a book to be. it is on the new york times bestsellers listor weeks and weeks and weeks. it elevates kennedy from being a senator from new engla to being a national figure. in 1956 at t democratic convention, kennedy nearlgets the vice presidential nomination, which was a big surprise. kennedy had a meeting wi harry truman, who at that point was an ex-president, but still importanwithin the infrastruc

[laughter] >> joe: i'm going to go ahead and disagree with kennedy greg. people take their candy very seriously. i'm not going to mention any names. but i will say this, that the only thing scary about those ghost candies was the risk of diabetes and i don't like it. i don't like it one bit. this is a strive for justice. this is right up there with brown versus the board of education and gideon versus wain

sian hedges, will spend at least 19 years injail, while jack benham, won't be considered for release for 23 years. here's duncan kennedyharm your defence if you don't mention when questioned something... nearby, her boyfriend, jack benham, was also arrested. no, no, you can't arrest him. what about sian? the previous night, high on drugs, they'd both murdered alfie phillips, inflicting more than 50 injuries during what the judge today called "a frenzied attack." it must have taken some considerable time to inflict these injuries on alfie. the pain and fear that he must have suffered is almost unimaginable. alfie died in this squalid caravan in kent in november 2020. the court here heard that sian hedges and jack benham blamed each other for alfie's death. but the judge said they both lied and both had murdered him. alfie's father says it's been a painful three years. after a lengthy trial, we finally got what we deserve for that little boy. 23 years and a 19... 19 years. we've got the justice in our hearts. the judge said sian hedges should have protected alfie, and said benham had probably inflicted most of the injuri

jack benham of 23 years. let's get more from our correspondent duncan kennedy at maidstone crown court.e heart of it alfie phillips, just 18 months old, who died at the hands of his own mother and her then boyfriend, what the judge described as a frenzied attack. he said the pain and fear alfie must have suffered is almost unimaginable. i should warn you some of the details in my report you might find distressing. "a shining light who will always be in our hearts." the words used by alfie phillips' family after the toddler was killed by those who were supposed to care for him. they were his own mother, sian hedges, and her boyfriend, jack benham, who inflicted what the police called a wicked attack on the boy. that attack happened here, near faversham in kent, during the second lockdown in november 2020. it took place in this caravan. alfie suffered more than 70 injuries, including multiple broken bones, and was found with traces of cocaine in his body. sian hedges protested her innocence when police arrested her. i haven't done anything. it may harm your defence if you do not mention,

kennedy weren't so good. and so that's all true. that's jack bass has written about it and and i think that in the it's you have to look at the entire record of the kennedy appointments because there were some good ones in there as well in the south and the fifth circuit. but but what i think the robert kennedy and president kennedy were dealing with and the political people in the white house were dealing with, was the long tradition of deferring to the senators from those states and the democratic from those states wanted their guys and they were all guys appointed. and when eisenhower was in office, the very few republicans in the south got to pick their guys and the republican party prior to 1960 was the party lincoln and was the party of civil rights for blacks in the south. so wisdom tuttle and reeves and came from that tradition. but they ended up being allies of the civil rights division of the justice department under robert kennedy and. they were great allies in president kennedy. robert kennedy were never afraid. give them credit for

know loans are underwritten by the government and keep jacking up the prices so that is something to target. universities need tough love. >> kennedyvestment, no accountability there. if you know that the government is funding education of everyone going to school, why would you lower fees or cut size of the administration? >> take a step back and look at who benefits and what you end up with is educational -- government educational complex. what is going on, government is in a position to control this stuff, they control cash flow to colleges and student loans, people can go out and get six year degrees and hate america 101 and can't get jobs and biden can come in and save the day and forgive student loans and buy votes from them and manage to coerce curriculum in the schools and it really is just another way for the government to get their fingers into education, control it, have it go the way they want and by doing that, what do they coerce? our young people. they are creating these anamatrons coming out of college that think and vote how they want. only way to combat it, put sunlight on it and look at whether return on investme
