Tonight we are going to be discussing catching the wind . . . An interesting analysiof the kennedy wave scene in three parts and also how it crashed, a very interesting and i take it from what i read this is the first lume of the 2volume ted kennedyiography through 1975. Welcome kneelin thank you very muchor joining us. Its great that you switched your career to writing these great fees. The first question i have is inert knowledge and at the end you mentioned the book started off as an idea to write a book about political morality. Did your publisher then say theres not enough material out there to make the book on political morality . He would definitely say that its interesting the origins of this book i was coming off of a ee of walt disney so this seems very much when i propose my next bk toike publisher whi ....
Susan Harold Holzers is our second hour about your new book the president s versus press. While i invite people to find the first hour, for those who havent seen it, whats that the jist of your new book . Mr. Holzer the thesis is we may believe we are living through the most chaotic and unpleasant confrontational era ever between a president and the media. But in fact, its a long tradition in American Government and American Media history that president s and the press do not share the same interests and have been out war, and a sense, ever since george washington. Susan from the time you started this project, was it always it versus the press . Mr. Holzer im glad you asked. No. Originally it was the president s and the press.

Over the next couple of days and weeks. Am my first calculation of fivestate differential this of 143 was 150 3000 out 153,000 out of 143 million votes. You wonder if we would have a five state recount. Im kidding. That wouldnt occur. Battle was in hawaii. The differential between john f. 1960 between john f. Kennedy and Richard Nixon was all of 115 votes. There was a recount in hawaii, and there was a swing from nixon to kennedy in 1960. You really wonder, is that what we have in store as we stagger to december . On georgia, just to add a bit of color, i was very focused on georgia over the last , becausenth and a half it is an important state. I believe it is a state that has only voted three times for a democratic president. If those times before it does go to a democratic president , two of those were when jimmyn 1990s carter was on the ballot, and in President Trump won ....
Today we are going to start a week of starting specifically prof. Curry today we are going to start a week of starting specifically about the Electoral College, what it is, how it works, why its important, why most political scholars hate the Electoral College. With the book, hopefully you have read most of that if not all of it, you get an argument against the Electoral College but its a useful book because , he lays out all of the common arguments for it as well, which i think is helpful for allowing each person to make up their own mind about what they think about this institution generally speaking. I do a whole week on this one because its how we elect the president , but very few americans understand the process. If you take a course in the american presidency, you should probably walk away understanding h ....
Against the Electoral College. It is useful because it lays out all of the common arguments for it as well. Which is helpful for allowing each person to make up their mind about what they think about this institution genuinely speaking. I do a whole week on this americansry few understand the full extent of the process. If you take a course on the american presidency should probably walk away understanding how this process is used to select how our chief executive officer works. Also because of how it structures have elections turns out. Just like how we started our discussion on president ial nominations by talking about the history and processes and a deep dive into the process rules, the rule nominations today. We should start a president ial election the same way by taking on how we select a president. Youre reading for this week was George C Edwards book on why the ....
