Ok, this time I find Mr. Hanson's suit fits him much better. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VdaOUBoZ3E&t=2240">37:20</a> "...this utopianism has been fatal to our society. It;s the new barbarism where we insist on perfectionism or we're no good." I couldn't agree more.

I am going to buy the book. The last part of the talk (last 10 minutes) really hit home. I go to Stanford and I am thinking of joining the military after I graduate because I want to be the master of my own world and defend what is good--the Western World.

Victor Davis Hanson is concise in every answer. I learned very much from this short interview.

@wonderwhaz797 He doesn't love it. He just accepts that it is a constant in human nature.

I found this totally on accident and watched it to its end. Absolutely fascinating, thank you Mr. Robinson and Mr. Hanson for doing this film. I learned a great amount, and had some things reinforced, that I'd surmised on my own. I hope that I'm able to watch an other interview or film with Mr. Hanson in it. If I were in a school close, I'd want to have a class with Mr. Hanson. I'm a 47 yr old male, turned down for military service, but would've, if I could've. Do another extending this!

I really love these interviews, however this one was quite frustrating because Peter Robinson kept interrupting Professor Hanson right before he would make the climatic point to whatever he was saying. So many times mr. Robinson veered the conversation away from those Apex points, and we never got to hear what the poor man was trying to say, which almost certainly would have been even more interesting than anything else that was discussed. Please, for the love of God, if you want to break things off on a tangent, wait for him to finish his point first!

I like how at 39:00 how Robinson thought he was going to school a master of history on Obama, and Hanson smacked him down, albeit as nicely as possible.
