the character of each of these -- if you think about the character of john kennedy, think about the character of lyndon johnson, the character of nixon. three very different characters. you have the east, massachusetts with kennedy, here are the center of the country, texas with johnson, and california with nixon. you have character traits and personality traits that could not be more different, three men. in each case, the chemistry of their minds, the way that they thought, the deep background of their relationships with their families, their mothers, their fathers, everything, all of that went into making their personalities and their presidencies. this book was a way of collecting those comparative studies and putting them in a sort of foreshadowing. it was intended, deliberately, to be a version in the sense that the great studies of greek and roman historical figures were very much involved with the influence of character and personality upon their behavior and upon history. so, i intended that three-part comparison. i intended one to playoff against the other two playoff against the ot

is that the time it was i'm trying to remember the exact time but john kennedy didn't want to upset his southern base so he had robert kennedy call the judge in reidsville and tell him to let his people go to that people go let martin luther king where but what john kennedy did was call coretta king to express his concern, sympathy for her, for her. so that that was how i met dr. king and it was, as i recall, the only time that it was a memorable time which i think wrote about. any any more you know, quite a few high. my name is aaron. i am a writer to a freelance so told you i was eight you write you right now i need to i should been paying attention and loose my name is aaron i'm a freelance i've written for the nation. i'm curious about your opinion on mainstream journalism today. i know you had hannah-jones. she wrote the foreword for your book and even with all of her prominence, she's been somebody who wasn't able to get a tenured position at her previous university. and in my experience working in newsrooms it's a lot of all white, all white editorial boards and to the degree tha

russia, full scale invasion on the 24th of february of 2022, i think, is reminiscent of president john kennedy's visit to westport. it is 1963. it is a monumental symbol at a time when ukraine's armed forces in the dom bus region in baltimore, in particular, are under a lot of pressure, added calms at a time where it support western support for ukraine needs to be stepped up to sustain the defense of fight bought and said that the us and nato will support ukraine for as long as it takes. but political and public support in the u. s. is whining. how much longer do you think the crime can afford to rely on the united states as a main source of funding? i think nato countries, including european united states, are transitioning their a to ukraine, going from a political ad hoc decision making system that relied on the highest level approval of new weapon systems. the latest round, including long term debates on whether or not to supply western produce tanks to create a traditionally, that talk decision making process into something that is more sustainable and where different industry plays a great

recall the images of president john kennedy in west germany declaring -- president ronald reagan stood behind the brandenburg gate nearly two decades later near the berlin wall demanding, mr. gorbachev, tear down this wall. those images defined the boundary between east and west, free people versus subjugated people. it was barely two years after president reagan's speech and after over four decades of free world vigilance that the world witnessed the profound victory of the valiant workers in the steel yards of poland. soon, captive nations subjugated by the soviet union for decades began to tumble. first in 1989, poland. then, in 1991, ukraine. then, the entirety of the captive nations held subjugated by the soviet union. it was a major turning point in the arc of world history. the allied post-war institutions created to defend liberty still exist today. indeed, now with sweden and finland, joining nato, that alliance grows stronger than it has ever been. ukraine, too, seeks to join its european allies who are democratic in the european union. ukrainian soldiers, meanwhile, ba battl

you probably saw this story from a couple of weeks ago senator john kennedy questioning trying to help, she being nominated to the district, couldn't answer basic questions about the constitution. is that a one-off were as far as the biden nomination and who they are putting forward? >> my guess is it was more of a one-off and i've seen the senator kennedy do this sort of question. some of the things he asked maybe i could have answered, but teaching constitutional law, this is not necessarily the way that you want to do the confirmation process. i know that that has not been the problem with most of these because they've asked toughud questions and not only have they been able to answer them but on a number of cases, people got through the committee with one a or two republican votes. so i do not think by any means are the people that are being appointed are unqualified in fact we look pretty closely at the constitution society to make recommendations. they've been nominated and confirmed. these are people we have carefully vetted and believe they are highly qualified and have every r
