SUMMARY:The Best Losing Presidential Candidates
DESCRIPTION:The Best Losing Presidential Candidates\nWhat do Adlai Stevenson\, George McGovern\, Daniel Webster\, and Wendell Willkie have in common? \nEach ran for President and lost. In some cases\, more than once! \nAnd each was an outstanding man who might well have made a great President. \nIn this unique multimedia presentation\, I will share my list of the ten best men to run for President and lose.  I’ll offer fascinating glimpses into the men\, the times\, and the campaigns. \nWe will explore why each man failed in his bid and speculate on the different directions our country might have taken had the election been decided differently.  For instance\, how would America have responded on the morning of 9-11 if Al Gore had been President? Or if Wendell Willkie had been President on Pearl Harbor Day?  It’s fun to think about and debate! \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:1974 - America 50 Years Ago
DESCRIPTION:Our popular “Time Capsule.” programs return with this brand new entry: “1974 – America 50 Years Ago. \nEach program will take you deep into American life during the year in question. We will look at the famous people who were born and passed away that year\, examine the top news stories\, and dive into popular culture\, sports\, and politics. \nThis is a history presentation that is fresh\, fast\, and fascinating! \nIn 1974\, 50 years ago\, the nation was stunned as disgraced President Richard Nixon was forced to resign over his crimes during Watergate. The incoming president\, Gerald Ford\, then issued a far-reaching pardon that impacts current events 50 years later! The Sears Tower opened\, Stephen King published his first novel\, Patricia Hearst was kidnapped\, “All In The Family” revealed the depth of the cultural divide\, and the United States instituted a 55-mile-an-hour speed limit. \nDon’t miss this exciting and thought-provoking presentation – fifty years in the making! \nPLEASE CONTACT THE VENUE DIRECTLY TO REGISTER – THEY ARE VERY HELPFUL AND FRIENDLY! \n  \n
