SUMMARY:JFK - A Life
DESCRIPTION:JOHN F. KENNEDY – A LIFE\n \nJFK is one of our most beloved and well-known Presidents. However\, much of what we “know” about John Fitzgerald Kennedy is fragmentary: his dalliances with women\, his heroism in the aftermath of PT-109\, his glamorous wife\, and his horrific death. We know parts of the Kennedy story\, but it can be hard to separate myth from history when it comes to a man as complex as JFK! \nIn this fast-moving\, insightful and fascinating multimedia presentation\, you will be mesmerized by the details of: \nHis very dysfunctional parents \nJFK’s complex medical problems \nHis unusual schooling\, including missing large chunks due to serious illnesses \nJFK’s actions before\, during\, and after the sinking of PT-109 \nHis political career \nJFK and women \nHis complicated marriage. \nThe Rat Pack And JFK \nThe Assassination \nAnd so much more!

SUMMARY:America's Closest Elections: 1876 and 2000
DESCRIPTION: America is the most technologically advanced country in the world. We are the only nation to land a man on the moon. Our research universities are the envy of the world. And in the year 2000 we were confronted by a distressing reality: the world’s oldest democracy was unable count the votes from a Presidential election. Long lines\, malfunctioning machines\, third party candidates\, badly designed ballots and a partisan judicial system threw the results of the battle between George W. Bush and Al Gore into massive confusion. \nOddly\, the election of 2000 was not the first time a Presidential election went in to overtime! At our nation’s centennial in 1876\, the cliffhanger election between Republican Rutherford B. Hayes and Democrat Samuel B. Tilden was even closer!  And\, as improbable as it may seem\, the final state to have its voting problems resolved (albeit in a controversial manner) was Florida! \nThis unique\, fascinating multimedia presentation looks at how America has twice coped with a bitter Presidential election too close to call. We will examine what happens when both the political and  judicial systems were unable to resolve the result in a way that inspired confidence in the American public. \nWe will also look at the long range results of the elections. The 1876 election ended the Reconstruction of the South and plunged America deep into a period of racial segregation. And the victory of George W. Bush in the election of 2000 ushered in the war on terrorism in ways that were very different from how Al Gore would have responded. \nCOST \nI ask for a voluntary donation of $5.00. If you cannot afford it or if you feel my programs are not worth $5.00\, you are invited to come for free\, I am unemployed but supporting a family\, so I understand with compassion living on a tight budget! \n
