Ms Doris Goodwin knowledge of American history is incredible. From Lincoln, FDR, JFK and Johnson to her lovely memories growing up loving baseball, I think she’s the only historian that I can actually relate to, the way she shares history with the public is so vibrant, you can see the love and dedication she has for our country. I hope she keeps sharing her infinite knowledge with us and I highly recommend you guys watch Ken Burns’ documentaries, she’s almost in every one of them.
This is the most uplifting thing I've watched in a long time. Thank you, Ms. Goodwin! Please keep speaking up, more ppl need to hear your voice at this historic cross road!
Agree, all her books are fabulous, including her charming book on baseball, "Wait Till Next Year". My favorites though are "No Ordinary Time" on the war years with Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt and because of my Irish heritage(!), "The Fitzgeralds and the Kennedys". Her knowledge and research are amazing, and she writes in such an engaging manner. Additionally, she gives a full picture of of the personalities she's writing about (good and bad), and just draws you into the story. Not every historian can write so well, and reading about these wonderful characters in our past makes you proud to be an American.
Took a class in college called The Life and Times of Martin Luther King, Junior. Surprisingly, the class talked A LOT about LBJ, and we learned what a crazy character he really was. Hearing Doris talk about LBJ reminded me that when you are the President of the United States, you can maintain decorum in public and still be yourself when the spotlight is not on you. Wonderful story!!!
Did they mention that in November 1963, LBJ was about to be indicted by the Senate on criminal charges? The Bobby Baker and Billy Sol Estes investigations directly implicated Johnson in criminal matters. LBJ was going to be removed from the 1964 Democratic ticket and charged. But on Nov. 22, JFK was murdered. In Texas, Johnson's home state. And everything changed for LBJ. Instead of going to jail, he moved to the White House.
I was completely captivated by Unfinished Love Story. We are so privileged to learn the details and inner workings of two presidencies because she and her husband were willing to tell their stories. Truly astonishing work with a personal touch. Thank you!
What an amazing woman! Love her drive and her goal of reminding us the role of government and of the mistakes we cannot make again. Thank you for sharing her with us. I don't see her enough or hear about her writing enough. RBG and Goodwin are women who I aspire to be or hope the young women of our world become.
She is who I have been waiting to hear from. She is the best of the best. She amazes me every time. Ty Doris, and please come on to any station and Please speak. 😊
I LOVE history because of the people and the lessons it can provide…. if people will only listen and pay attention. History is ALIVE, NOT some dusty and irrelevant book. It lives with every retelling and we must remember the price paid, honor that, and strive NOT to repeat past mistakes. THANK YOU DKG for your life’s work!
I saw her do an interview and at one point she says “my late husband” About 10 seconds later she stops and puts her hands to her face and said “I’m sorry, but it’s the first time I have referred to my husband in the past tense” it was just heartrending to watch
I attended Mr. Goodwin's memorial service that day in May, 2018 in Concord, and to say that there were many "voices of greatness" would be an understatement. I'll never forget the eulogy she delivered, soberly but with feeling, and not once did she break. Speaker after speaker got up and had their turn on that dais (most of them nationally known historians) and I was absolutely rivetted to every word spoken in that church. Afterwards I waited in line to express my individual condolences, and as she looked at me she had a very faint and quizzical expression, but then smiled and asked who I was. I told her that her youngest son was a client of mine and that we have known each other for several years, and that I was there to offer my support to the rest of the family. She immediately shook my hand and gave me a hug, and it told me that she was the most giving person I had ever met. Just lost a husband, but then wanted to know what connection I had with her family that I made the trek all the way from Boston's northern suburbs to this service, and she was so gracious in her gratitude. Not too many months went by that she also became a client of mine, and I was absolutely thrilled to be part of her new circle. I'm counting the days until her latest book is available for purchase and I will then relish every sentence. Such a wonderful national treasure but, more importantly, such an amazing lady. Miss seeing her so much (switched companies and moved out of Massachusetts during Covid).
DKG is a great lady and a great historian. I have been a fan of hers for a long, long time now and have always admired her and her scholarship. Hats off to a great American mind. Thank you, DKG.
I can never get enough of DKG. I have the audio version of her new book on order. I'm praying that she is reading it because my upcoming road trip will be so much more enjoyable with her along for the ride.
Thanks so much for this interview. DKG is a marvelous teacher whose scholarship is impeccable, and whose ability to communicate with the public - her students now - is masterful. I so look forward to reading this new book, and greatly appreciate her hopeful words and encouraging attitude during these hard days when it is easy to be cynical about and fearful of our country's future.
Every Dem in the country challenged the outcome of 2016 election. Absurd saying that democracy is at stake this November. What is at stake is the survival of this country.
Doris Kearns Goodwin is a National Treasure. Her work ought to be more widely lauded for its intense scholarship and logical narrative structures. I heartily recommend her "Team of Rivals" from which I learned so much about our country's trajectory in forming "a more perfect union." Just hearing her speak teaches so much about integrity of thought and feeling.
Rob Morrow turned in a great performance as Richard Goodwin in Robert Redford'd 1994 film "Quiz Show" alongside Mia Sorvino as his first wife Sandra Goodwin ( who passed away in 1972) .
She is absolutely right about LBJ. Were it not for Viet Nam Johnson would have been considered one of the greatest Presidents in American history by virtue of the Civil Rights Act What's more, he likely would've sought reelection in 1968 thereby staving off Richard Nixon for at least four years, perhaps longer. A lot of history changes in that situation.
well, if not for Watergate, Nixon would be considered one of the greatest Presidents.....and we are seeing the fruits of LBJ 's policies today with the destruction of the black family, because he rewarded single motherhood and in order for a family to get the most benefits the man had to disappear... correct me if I'm wrong..
It says something interesting about Richard Goodwin that he was part of both Kennedy's inner circle and Johnson's inner circle. LBJ was so pathologically mistrustful of the Kennedys that he didn't keep Kennedy people on unless they particularly impressed him. He initially didn't even want Secret Service agent Clint Hill being on his detail because he had been on Mrs. Kennedy's protection team. Then he ended up trying to hire Hill away from the SS to work for him personally when he left office. This interview makes me want to read more about LBJ, and probably also DKG's book about her husband. ☺
that was probably to try to keep Hill quiet and not reveal the things he knew. LBJ "kept his friends close and his enemies even closer" . don't be so naive...
be careful you do not sanitize Johnson too much. The nation he left on January 20, 1969 was a far worse place than the one he inherited on November 22, 1963
Ms Goodwin reminds me that there are still Americans who have intellect and integrity. It seemed that we are close to being lost until we hear her. America never let the fascists and barbarians take over your government and your freedom. Vote blue.

Thank you for mentioning her book loving baseball as a child and beyond. It was how I first was introduced to her.
she is an avowed plaigerist.i am stunned anyone pays attention to her. just wrong and i blame the MSM.
@@john-o1g9p YES ! She has been removed from Pulitzer and fired by PBS. She is a disgrace to her peers for plagiarism.
Just LOVE Doris Kearns - she brings history to life - a national treasure!!! Thank you Doris for your service to the common , everyday American. 💜💜💜
but she was a self avowed word theif. how do you accept that?
Delighted to see this terrific gal ‘still in action’. She’s such a positive influence. Huge hugs her way.
What’s that. That’s ok to steal from other authors and keep your Pulitzer. She is a terrible example of a historian and a world class phony
This is the most uplifting thing I've watched in a long time. Thank you, Ms. Goodwin! Please keep speaking up, more ppl need to hear your voice at this historic cross road!
she is an avowed plaigerist. her words are stolen and hollow.
We love Doris and respect her work. She's a true American treasure.
how can you respect her work knowing she is a plaigerist?
This beautiful lady is a scholar and a National Treasure. ❤
She stole from other authors
''a scholar of ill repute''.
t.u.
the MSM rewrites history as well as the CCP@@opticscolossalandepicvideo4879
She’s a horrible thief
Robert, been a fan of Doris's for many years! What a great story!!!

and a thief. she says so herself. why the adulation?
She is an absolutely mesmerizing amazing author. Love her and can't wait to read this amazing book❤
She is who I have been waiting to hear from. She is the best of the best. She amazes me every time. Ty Doris, and please come on to any station and Please speak. 😊
what do u say to her self acknowledged theft of other's words and ideas?
I have read every one of her books, my love of history and understanding of the present is her gift to us
Got to admire Dois Kearns Goodwin. What a mind.
Great that Doris is not letting the memory of '50s trailblazer Richard be forgotten. The Goodwins, two literary legends!
She was a plagiarist of highest order stole from other authors and didn’t credit their works. Awful historian. Terrible person
SHE IS A LEGEND AS AS A SELF ACKNOWLEDGED PLAIRGERIST.
Her husband prolonged the war and sent thousands of kids to death. He was a horrid person on wrong side of history
Unfortunately, she failed to disclose she was sleeping with LBJ at the time. SO that changes a few things.
I LOVE history because of the people and the lessons it can provide…. if people will only listen and pay attention. History is ALIVE, NOT some dusty and irrelevant book. It lives with every retelling and we must remember the price paid, honor that, and strive NOT to repeat past mistakes. THANK YOU DKG for your life’s work!

She’s an outstanding historian and journalist.
What a brilliant mind!
A plagiarist of the highest order.
@@opticscolossalandepicvideo4879 right up there with Biden.....she blamed it on her ghostwriters...(assistants)....
I could listen to her for hours on end
So grateful for this prolific, educator, and voice! Doris Kearns Goodwin, is my *favorite* author.
Her book about her childhood and baseball, "Wait 'til Next Year" was delightful, too.
DKG is a great lady and a great historian. I have been a fan of hers for a long, long time now and have always admired her and her scholarship. Hats off to a great American mind. Thank you, DKG.
Not participating is an action! Yes.
is thqat before or after she copped to paigerism?
She's 81?! Good Heavens, she shouldn't be working or valued, right? That's what y'all say about Biden. She's at the top of her game!
She was not elected president, she is an author.
Biden has dementia and evil people using him like a puppet
@@spiritcreek9813and Joe Biden was elected president. What’s your point?
we haven't seen her stumble and fall or mess up her speeches...he is a public figure. Don't come at me ---I am NOT MAGA or a Republican
She is a terrible historian and a first class thief
She is my favorite author and makes learning history so enjoyable
I can never get enough of DKG. I have the audio version of her new book on order. I'm praying that she is reading it because my upcoming road trip will be so much more enjoyable with her along for the ride.
I’m so privileged to have one of her works “a team of rivals”……Doris Kearns Goodwin is an American treasure 👏👏👏🥰
to bad a lot of it was plagiarized.
Doris Kearns Goodwin is a national treasure. I'm looking forward to reading the new book💯
For as long as I've seen her on tv, she's always had that smile and cheerful attitude... And I'm 40+ now. Good for her...
Wow! I always knew she was great. But now I realize she is a treasure.
Doris Kearns Goodwin - one of our national treasures. Thank you for your giving by the 🖊️.
She is brilliant. Excellent interview. 🇺🇸
Grateful, so Grateful for Doris.
Thank You, cbs: during March Womens' Herstory Month it is so refreshing to hear the epic DORIS KEARNS GOODWIN . 2024 . M Sophia Santiago in Spain .
Thanks so much for this interview. DKG is a marvelous teacher whose scholarship is impeccable, and whose ability to communicate with the public - her students now - is masterful. I so look forward to reading this new book, and greatly appreciate her hopeful words and encouraging attitude during these hard days when it is easy to be cynical about and fearful of our country's future.
I hope she’s right. VOTE.
She is brilliant
What an excellent interview of an incredible person. I'm ordering her book for my husband today.
She's the greatest. I first learned of her on Ken Burns' 1994 Baseball series. I recently read Team of Rivals. I'll have to get this latest one.
A national treasure
One of the most fascinating people I've ever met.
Every Dem in the country challenged the outcome of 2016 election. Absurd saying that democracy is at stake this November. What is at stake is the survival of this country.
Same thing. No felons/con artists/and twice impeached losers in the Oval. #VoteBlue.
Wrong, and no one rioted or tried to stop the confirmation. Democrats still possess decorum.

I heartily recommend her "Team of Rivals" from which I learned so much about our country's trajectory in forming "a more perfect union."

Thank you for pointing out how important this election is and that we all must choose democracy.
Wonderful!
She is wonderful!
A sweet, sweet lady. She gives me hope.
Reading her Roosevelt Taft book now, it's so good
Thank u to it for this interview.
I absolutely love this woman!
She is awesome and inspiring!
She's a great historian and a great American!
I respect Doris Kearns Goodwin. I hope we do pull through these tough times.
Thank you for the message of hope. May you be right!

She is speaking at my daughter’s Colby College graduation in May. Looking forward to it. She is also a Colby graduate.
🫡 Ms. Doris Goodwin, the GOAT
One of William F. Buckley's best interviews was with Richard Goodwin.
Extraordinary writer end historian
Thank goodness, I heard Doris give me hope about the Shakespearean tragedy that is occurring in America with its politics.
People today don't realize the significance of peaceful protest.
I would imagine Robert Caro has interviewed her many times for his 5th LBJ book. Especially since she was with him alot in his final years.
Johnson was a wonderful Texan, who could tell a story! I hope people listen to her.
Johnson was a corrupt sociopath....
She is a star!!!
Love her!!!!
An American treasure.
I’ve her and reading her books!
I loved her in ken burns baseball when she taled about her father and her love of baseball

Were it not for Viet Nam Johnson would have been considered one of the greatest Presidents in American history by virtue of the Civil Rights Act What's more, he likely would've sought reelection in 1968 thereby staving off Richard Nixon for at least four years, perhaps longer. A lot of history changes in that situation.
And yet. the Powers That Be are trying to erase all of his work, including Civill Rights and Voting Rights.
@@gingergeezer3685If "by the powers" you mean the Rethuglicans, then I agree.

I really want to meet her personally and sign all of her books that I have! Hope that would happen someday! 🙏
So much history in this, her latest book. I'll buy it. LBJ was a teacher ,a good one at that.

I have read all her books, except the newest one, and they are NOT to be put down. She is so very interesting! Good Read!
that was probably to try to keep Hill quiet and not reveal the things he knew. LBJ "kept his friends close and his enemies even closer" . don't be so naive...
An extremely intelligent and gracious woman whom we are fortunate to have in this country.
I don't want to think about what will happen if we don't learn from history and heed Mrs. Goodwin's words.
DKG - Brilliant woman.
From your lips to God’s ears, Doris! We have to VOTE BLUE UP AND DOWN THE BALLOT ON LOCAL, STATE AND FEDERAL LEVELS! 🌊🇺🇸💙🌊🇺🇸💙🌊🇺🇸💙🌊🇺🇸💙
You're nuts
She never said who she would vote for.
Beschloss is also a great public figure.
No wonder 🧐 she's so smart and erudite! All those books 😂📚
wasn't she up on plaigerism charges back in the day?
no mention here. what up with that?
Yes - I agree - this was a big deal
the left covers for the left as often as the right covers for the right. best to go about our lives and ignore them both.@@theresalynch3703
I love her!
Read about her plagiarism and her lifting passages from other authors uncredited
Great Interview!🦘
She kinda looked like Katy Tur when she was younger.
One of a kind 🙏🏼💙🌈💪🏾
👍👍
I had no idea of LBJ’s strength. Doris brings such great importance to our history of lives.
We need another LBJ. He didn't give a flying leap what anyone, press included, thought of him.
be careful you do not sanitize Johnson too much. The nation he left on January 20, 1969 was a far worse place than the one he inherited on November 22, 1963
I hope she’s right.
Don't tune out, vote Kennedy/ Shanahan 2024❤!!! Thank-you to the Goodwins!
Wasn’t she accused of plagiarism
Ms Goodwin reminds me that there are still Americans who have intellect and integrity. It seemed that we are close to being lost until we hear her. America never let the fascists and barbarians take over your government and your freedom. Vote blue.
Since LBJ had JFK murdered I'm a bit surprised at her full throated praise
You are an American Treasure
I was looking for your voice - I remember hearing about this -- 15 year ago? now crickets.... shame
Lyndon Johnson was a Southern raconteur.
I wouldn't know who she is, if not for Ken Burns' "Baseball".
