But lets start first by showing an appearance of yours, first time on cspan, back in 1986. Here we go. Guest the general point i was trying to make was that the people seem to sort of assume the responsibility. Journalists campaign for hall monitor in second grade and they have been running every since. Jeb bush started late but he had business jobs that depended on celebrity. Christie was from the prosecutors office. And their motives are slightly more suspect because this is the next rung on the ladder for these guys. It is like getting to the nfl or making the major leagues. This is to show you are the king of the group you get to run for president. It is the next step in their profession. Cspan i want to viewers to know they should go to google and type it in ferguson and republican and guest not anymore. Cspan they can find all of your columns or the last several years. That is what i want to do is dip in and talk about the writing. This is a column you wrote early in 2015 about h

from july 07 to march 09, you had no meetings? i believe that is correct. yes, sir. in other words the business of the commission at that time did not include a full commission meeting. that s unusual. why did you choose to run the competition by the gsa design excellence program? simply put, the complexity of the site which was identified in the national capital planning mission commission s master plan for memorials, presented us with an unusual challenge in urban design. i am not an architect. but the size and location of eisenhower square which was attractive to us because it fit eisenhower in a particular and powerful personal way presented a wide range of design challenges. i m running out of time. let me make these quick. does the process favor large established firms? i can t speak to the process. i don t know the history of gsa s experience with that. i am assuming that, that obviously an unknown designer could have been selected, but does that proc
from the outset have expressed concern about the scope and scale of this memorial. the original idea was actually to put a simple statue at the eisenhower executive office building. this was our family preference in the beginning. and so this has evolved a great deal. to say that the eisenhower family had gone along with every aspect of this process would not be correct. and we found it important to correct the record. i think you ll hear from others who have their own views on this. so i will leave the rest of that question to be answered by others. mr. garamendi, do you have questions? i have a couple, if i could. could you just briefly summarize why the family believes president eisenhower would have rejected this design? well, first of all, he was a very modest man. he would have expected something of far less dramatic, far less he would have wanted something on a smaller scale, i believe. this is an enormous thing. i did mention the metal scrims, which i think ar
mr. chairman, but i was actually walking and not crawling at that time. what about our rising generations who lacked this firsthand memory? what will they know if anything about this great american? to teach them not only about ike and his deeds but to give them a sense of his greatness and the debt we owe him is the task ofmy monument worthy of bearing his name. this mission is admirably summarized in the 1999 law passed by congress ordering that, quote, an appropriate memorial to dwight d. eisenhower should be created to perpetuate his memory and his contributions through the united states. unquote. such a monument should therefore memorialize and educate. in execution of these tasks the gary proposal not only fails but fails ulterly. a unified narrative, a storing if you will, absent in both conception and in design. without this no monument to an individual can succeed. the gary plan is a lot of incongruent things of wildly different shapes, proceed portions, materials an
