He touched on it last night about the segregation issues in this country during the Kennedy years. 

I was just fascinated to learn history of how we got there to start with.  Goes back to Truman and Eisenhower, and how our obsession with Communism and the Cold War led us in that direction.  I can remember when I was in grammar school being taught about the Domino Theory.  I have to confess it leads me wondering about our obsesion with ISIS and where that has led us. 

As an aside, while I was in the Pentagon, I was doing some research and happened upon the report of the Mei Li incident.  I checked it out and started reading, becuase I remember when it happened.  Fascinating stuff. 

One thing that I found interesting in the broad cast last night was how the military leaned on the press to not report the whole truth about what was going on when it wasn't favorable to our efforts there.
