The Kennedy presidency. History or hype?
Description
In a freewheeling town hall discussion at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, we explore how today's college students view the presidency of John F. Kennedy and how it compares with the traditional view. What is it about JFK's 1000-day presidency that continues to resonate? Can the "Camelot" myth be separated from the harsh reality of crises during the 1960s? Phil Donahue hosts our panel of historians and authors -- Robert Dallek, Steve Gillon, Doris Kearns Goodwin, and Professor Ernest May.
