  I had an AP teacher once state to me, that she worried that the work of the classes she taught was a mile wide, but only an inch deep.  She tried to compensate for this.  Your comments on Lincoln's self- education made me think of her comments.  I know this is an old video, but I thank you for your work, Ms. Kearns Goodwin... such wonderful depth.

  I read Team of Rivals, years ago and loved it.  This interview was wonderful.  I can't imagine anyone but Daniel Day Lewis playing Lincoln in Spielsburg's movie.  He was sublime.

  I just finished watching the FDR Docudrama. Sanitizing FDR's Presidency is a significant flaw. Leaving out the attempted assassination is strange.  Portraying Harry Hopkins as a handsome, robust, and healthy man invalidated this great man's contributions. Hopkins was terribly ill for many years and still was very effective. A British doctor said Hopkins was staying alive because of sheer willpower. The actor portraying FDR needed more makeup at the end. Did he resist being made to look like a dying man?

  I just watched the George Washington series on Netflix and wondering why the hell they had Bill Clinton talking so much about him, as if he&apos;s some kind of authority on him. Why not have George W Bush talk about him? Or Trump? Then I found out she&apos;s a Trump-hating liberal with a bad case of TDS.
