Matt Crawford speaks with author Stephen F. Knott about his book: Coming to Terms with John F. Kennedy. This book offers us a nuanced view of our thirty-fifth president whose influence and legacy is still debated to this day. Knott examines Kennedy through the lens of five critical issues: his interpretation of presidential power, his approach to civil rights, and his foreign policy toward Cuba, the Soviet Union and Vietnam. We also talk about the Kennedy assassination and how that has prevented an impartial study of his presidency. With a lifetime spent wrestling with JFK's legacy, working at the John F. Kennedy Library, Ted Kennedy's Senate campaign in 1976 and a career of studying, teaching and writing about the American presidency, Knott is the perfect author to take us along on this long-awaited analysis.
