What a extremely humble man. A great man. He influenced so much of America. We will never know just how much. But we are a much greater country for his service.
Modest man. I know that Profiles was almost a collaborative effort between him and JFK, but Kennedy set the tone and selected the examples he found most intriguing. Sorensen, however, authored many of Kennedy's speeches. It was said that Sorensen could read Jack's mind, and completely understood his political intentions. Two great men working with an outstanding cabinet. And don't forget Bobby. In some ways I grieve more for him. His idealism and compassion for humanity is rarely seen in the political arena, and like Jack, he shone a very bright light in a very dim world.
The movie Thirteen Days brought me here. It is a tremendous task to record history and give recognition where it is due. Sorensen, as a speech writer, framing deals with Khrushchev, probably wasn't given enough credit.
A very honorable man.
I met him as we walked up Eighth Avenue. Gracious man and a great writer.
A personal hero of mine .A man for all seasons. Moral,ethical, honest, idealistic, humble, caring, genuine.
Brilliant man.
very loyal and humble man good man...
Undoubtedly, but it's difficult to reconcile his decision to endorse the smarmy divisive damaging windbag Obama after such close association with the intellectual and moral integrity of JFK.
This is fascinating. Thank you to the New York Times.
Ted Sorensen was a modest man.
He would have made a great President. Sorenson was a man of integrity, a fine and brilliant writer , humble ,intelligent and a true Patriot.
That accent that has disappeared from politics. Slow, measured, careful.
It just shows that it takes a team, not an individual. Jack without Ted or Ted without Jack probably would not have accomplished as much.
Fascinating man.
Very enjoyable!
In closed captioning, several mistakes with he had done this, not we had done this!
Four score and seven years ago, our forefather brought forth on this continent a new nation concived in liberty and the proposition that amm men are created equal.
We stand on this battle field attesting whether that nation or any nation so concieved and so dedictated can long endore, knowing that government from the people, of the people and by the people shall not perish from the earth.
A great revelation, Ted Sorensen finally admits to what everyone always knew; that he wrote Profiles in Courage and that John F. Kennedy accepted the Pulitzer Prize for a book he did not write.
I guess Mr. Sorensen approaching the end of his life felt that it was time to finally come clean.
In the totality of things, who cares?
Kevin Barrett that’s true about history in general. Do you value history?
Beating around the bush...CHECK!✓
Hearing the brilliant words from this period in history, there is no doubt that as a country we have lost our ability to express ourselves with any degree of eloquence. Too many video games, too many hours of televised sports, too many stupid lyrics in trashy songs, too little discipline to work at doing something well.
