SUMMARY:George Washington: The Perfect Man For America
DESCRIPTION:George Washington is America’s greatest hero. He was our greatest soldier. He was also our greatest President.  His contemporaries already knew that he was a man whose importance to the nation could never be questioned.  One of the most honored statesmen of the day had this to say when Washington died: “First in war\, first in peace\, and first in the hearts of his countrymen.” \n \nGeorge Washington was tall\, athletic\, and absolutely fearless. Yet his military career was spotted before Congress appointed him to be the commanding General the head of the Continental Army\, Click here to read a fascinating account of why he is still the highest-ranking American military officer of all time. Although we remember him as a great General\, his first year of command was disastrous! \nBut then at the Battle Of Trenton. General Washington’s courage\, daring\, and heroic leadership became evident to the world. That battle is best remembered for the breathtaking Christmas crossing of the Delaware River\, but it also holds the amazing distinction of the first military battle ever fought in an urban setting! More importantly\, the Battle Of Trenton directly changed the course of the history of America – and the entire world! It is the single most important battle in the history of the USA. \n \nClick here to read more about why the Battle of Trenton is so important to the history of the world. \nAfter the Revolution\, of course\, Washington’s fame and importance only grew. As the first President of the United States\, he helped turn America from a series of promises laid out in the Declaration of Independence into a living Republic that continues to shine as a beacon of freedom and hope to people and nations around the world. \nThis multimedia presentation will offer a new perspective on the personality of the greatest American of all time! \n  \n\n

SUMMARY:Best Movies About Politics
DESCRIPTION:Live\, In Person\, And Open To The Public! \nPolitics and the movies are a match made in heaven! Movies need compelling characters\, suspenseful plots\, unexpected twists\, and a  great conclusion. Politics provides all the above and then some! In this remarkable new presentation\, Best Movies About Politics\, I’ll present my admittedly idiosyncratic list of the best films ever made about American politics. Some are dramas\, and some are comedies. Some are old classics\, and some are very modern. Some are well-known\, critically acclaimed Hollywood films and others are amazing but obscure! \nBest Movies About Politics\nThis fun\, fascinating\, and fast-moving presentation is one of my favorites\, combining my love of great cinema with a lifelong fascination with elections. And where else will you find a list that plausibly contains Henry Fonda\, Eddie Murphy\, Kirk Douglas\, George Clooney\, and Jimmy Stewart? From directors Frank Capra and Preston Sturges to Rob Reiner and screenwriters Aaron Sorkin to Rod Serling\, some of the most incredible talent in movie history have tackled the subject of elections in films that are entertaining\, thought-provoking\, and often unforgettable. We will look at clips from some of them and consider others! \nOf course\, we will leave time for discussion and your choices. Let’s see what everyone else chooses as the best movies about politics! \nBONUS! \nClick here to read about one of the films – I’ll bet this is a new one for you! \nREGISTRATION! \nThis event is live! Registration is required\, and there is a fee to attend. Please contact the nice sponsors\, and they will be glad to help you! \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Gideon\, Escobedo\, Miranda - Protecting The Accused
DESCRIPTION:  \nMiranda rights have become so familiar that most of us can recite them from memory – even though we have never been accused of a crime! \nThe “Warren Court” of the 1960s was tasked with interpreting the Bill Of Rights for an America that James Madison could not have envisioned.  They revolutionized our understanding of the rights of defendants and expanded our knowledge of the Constitution. \nThe “Roberts Court” of today has the same problem.  Consider: how does the original interpretation of the Federal Constitution apply in situations that did not exist in 1787?  When James Madison and the  Founders wrote the original Constitution\, they did not envision the need to search automobiles for cocaine\, stop terrorist hijackers from bringing shoe bombs on airplanes\, the need to search locked personal cell phones for call history that might be used to solve a kidnapping or deal with the admissibility of electronic surveillance gathered from drones? \nIn this fascinating multimedia presentation\, you will learn the historical background and continuing impact of three of the most critical cases in Supreme Court history. \n
