Congress and that early period in the development of our country. We have been fortunate to have chuck as part of the uscs society team for five years, prior to that he was 27 years working on the First Congress program. And so he has put together a very imaginative presentation using primary sources, letters of the times, where people wrote to one another about the science, the food, the culture, and the back and forth that made early days in washington. That being said, we invite you to stay with us for your questions and answers. Chuck will do his presentation, and i will work through the questions and we have a couple of questions, we may be able to do a couple of questions during the presentation but the majority of our questions will be at the conclusion of the presentation. So please put your questions in and ill try to work them through both at the end and as we move forward. Thank you very much, chuck, for the work youve done to put this together and welcome to the platform. W
Feeling that this was unfinished business. Lbj deserves all the credit that he later claimed for piloting, navigating, guiding the civil rights bill to passage in july of 1964 when he signs it. But i think kennedy deserves credit as the kennedyjohnson bill. It had cleared the house of representatives by the day jfk was killed. Jfk had made alliance not with democrats but with midwestern republicans. He had reached out to them, and they were supporting it, particularly in the senate. He had gone to others. I think it would have gotten through. Eventually, it might have taken until 1965, kennedy would have gotten the civil rights act. But full credit to Lyndon Johnson for doing it the way he did, but i dont think he could have done it with the same success without the death of jfk. Thank you so much for joining us.

Just a terrific woman not educated because that is not what they did. And it is one little thing i think about what my mother could have been. It was a place where theyre were not any r
Serious question that needs to be objected to. Senator menendez . I was going to add a small foot note to the issue of countries without diplomatic relations not being part of the inspection team. I want to point out again for decades now all inspectors have training here in the United States. Were very confident in a very, very broad set of confident people. In addition i could get you the exact number but right now i think we have a dozen americans in the safegardz efforts at iaea and they play a very critical role. I would love it if you would get me that information specifically. Senator, ill get you a list of all the mcnichls we have to prevent arms flowing.
