it was very controversial that john f. kennedy was a catholic when he threw his hat into the ring and we had to grapple that as a nation, would john f. kennedy serve the pope in the vatican or the american people. and he made an important speech at rice university, he was first and foremost an american, and he would serve the american people and i think that lays the groundwork for the important speech that barack obama would make at the national constitution center in 2008, talking about being an african-american, as candidate for the united states presidency, what being black meant to him in this country and what it meant to his candidacy and both helped us to get over the controversy of electing a person of faith in the case of john f. kennedy, and a person of color in the case of barack obama. >> and you're watching book tv on c-span2, this is our monthly in depth program, one author, his or other body of work and this month we're pleased to be in austin, texas with historian and author and lbj foundation president, mark updeg
