I have always liked Kearns' work. It is so amazing that such a good historian was so close to one of the most remarkable people of the late 20th century. This was one of Margaret's best programs.
Doris K Goodwin is an American treasure. Period. I know of no other presidential historian who is so non partisan and so eloquent. Maggie always does a great job. Two outstanding ladies that should always garner our keen attention. Thank you both.
This is such a fantastic book. I am re-living the 1960's, when I came of age, through the eyes of 2 people who were up close and personal to what was happening. DKG is my all time best historian.
Some people have a special view of America at an important point in our history---and with Doris and her husband, Dick, they witnessed and wrote about key events from the 1960s to current times.
Been a great admirer of Doris Kearns Goodwin over the years. I was so excited to meet her a couple of weeks ago on my flight from Boston to Washington. The nicest lady. Blessings to her and her family.
Doris Kearns Goodwin has played a huge role in my life. I’ll never forget election night, November 7, 2000, when Doris was on NBC with Tom Brokaw. Tom Brokaw interrupted Doris to call the election for Bush, which was later retracted. Disappointed, I turned off the tv and didn’t know until the next morning that the race was anything but over. Now I realize that Dick Goodwin wrote the speech that brought some comfort to my aching heart. It endowed me with a spirit of reconciliation, always rooting for the person who will be our president-even when it is a person I disagree with. It was a way of thinking that helped me on January 20, 2017, when Donald Trump took the oath of office. I aspire to always place country first and to never forget our nation and its government are of the people, by the people, for the people!
This interviewer is truly vapid. Nothing here goes too deep or below the surface. Goodwin is a reservoir of knowledge yet Margaret does an equal amount of talking framing her shallow questions. When Goodwin talked of where we are today as society and possibility of civil war Matgaret smiles and moves on. Why not ask Goodwin WHY and HOW she takes that position and her thoughts on the new liberals and conservatives. Waste of time fluff piece interview here.
I am fearful that we have become jaded to inspirational speech. It's seen as inauthentic and manipulative - the domain of career politicians - by most Americans today, especially the young. But good writing can help summarize the stakes, catalyze for action, and encourage people like nothing else.
I had forgotten that Richard Goodwin had a hand in crafting Al Gore's concession speech in 2000. It makes me wonder how history could have been changed if Vice President Gore had simply taken the "Trump approach", especially since the margin of Gore's defeat had been so much slimmer than Trump's landslide loss. Vice President Gore proved to be an upstanding American who not only valued our judicial system, but respected and honored the final judgement of the United States Supreme Court. Al Gore proved in his concession speech that he valued his country more than his personal aspirations and ego, and he even presided admirably over the counting of the electoral college votes. His actions encouraged unity in supporting the next President rather than sowing even more division. It was also a time when the Supreme Court conducted itself with integrity and earned much more esteem and credibility in the eyes of many Americans.
Al Gore's win was stolen by the Bush oligarchs. Gore knew it but couldn't fight all the $$ backers who wanted Bush. The US Supreme Court was crooked and Vile to shut down a legitimate vote count.
Why didn't Margaret Hoover ask Doris Kearns Goodwin about her plagiarism problem. That is NOT a good, preferred activity for a historian. But the intro includes "Pulitzer Prize winning" twice....

Very nice interview and conversation
Wish these were longer online
Wonderful interview.
Doris Kearns Goodwin does a good job handling Margaret s questions
“We put country over party”. Uh, Republicans say no to that. Sorry
