New Frontier Awards and Walter Cronkite Forum Tape 1 Page 1 NEW FRONTIER AWARDS AND WALTER CRONKITE FORUM TAPE 1 PAGE 1 PAUL KIRK: That was a fitting Boston welcome for our special guests. Good afternoon, welcome to you all. Those who I have not had an opportunity to meet, I’m Paul Kirk. I chair the Board of Directors of the Kennedy Library Foundation. Many of our board members are with us; we’re delighted for that. This is one of a series of special forums that the Kennedy Library and Foundation puts on under the leadership of Deborah Leff, Director of the Kennedy Library, and John Shattuck, Chief Executive Officer of the Library Foundation. We are obviously honored by two very special gentlemen from the news medium whose names are no secret, but their introduction will come momentarily. But with respect to this Forum, first of all, I would like to acknowledge and thank those who make it possible. Our lead sponsor is The Bank of America; we are also very grateful to Boston Capital, The Lowell Institute and the Corcoran Jennison Companies. We have media sponsors as well that help us broadcast and let the larger audience know what happens here, The Boston Globe , boston.com, and WBUR, which broadcasts all of the Kennedy Library Forums on Sunday evenings. And in support of today’s events, I would like to thank the sponsors of our Distinguished Visitors Program: Raytheon Corporation, Boston Capital, and Nixon-Peabody. Before proceeding with the Forum itself, we have a special treat for you and a special treat for those of us affiliated with the Kennedy Library and Foundation, as well as the Harvard Kennedy School of Government. Each NEW FRONTIER AWARDS AND WALTER CRONKITE FORUM TAPE 1 PAGE 2 of those institutions exists to perpetuate and promote the ideals and legacy of President Kennedy. The John F. Kennedy Library Foundation and the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard created the New Frontier Awards in 2004 to honor young Americans under the age of forty years who are changing their communities for the better and are changing the country by their commitment to public service. The two New Frontier Awards are presented annually to exceptional young Americans. One, whose contributions in elective office and another, whose community service, or advocacy, demonstrate the impact and the value of public service in the spirit of John Kennedy and the idealism to which he hoped young Americans would aspire. The co-chairs of the New Frontier Award are John Shattuck, our CEO, and another distinguished public servant in her own right, the Director of the Institute of Politics at Harvard, the former governor of New Hampshire, Jean Shaheen. I also want to acknowledge and welcome Dean David Elwood, Dean of the Kennedy School of Government, the students from the Kennedy School of Government who are here with us as well as the Fellows of the Institute of Politics. And accompanying our awardees, I want to acknowledge and welcome Shirley Madigan, mother of Lisa Madigan. We are delighted that you’re here with us, and Henry Fernandez, the husband of Kiko Martos, and the Martos family who are here. We’re delighted that they’re here as well to congratulate, along with us, Kiko for her good work. NEW FRONTIER AWARDS AND WALTER CRONKITE FORUM TAPE 1 PAGE 3 There is someone else here who bears the Kennedy name and she has done so much in her own right as a human being to espouse and live up to the idealism of her mother and father. And she is the president of the Kennedy Library Foundation and a distinguished member of the board of the Kennedy School of Government’s Institute of Politics. She needs no introduction, but she does deserve a welcome. So please welcome Caroline Kennedy. [applause] CAROLINE KENNEDY: Thank you all for coming. It’s wonderful to be here today and celebrate two extraordinary women, whose commitment to public service is an inspiration to Americans of all ages. The New Frontier Awards would have had special meaning for President Kennedy. He would have been pleased to know that the Institute of Politics and the Kennedy Library, the two most important living memorials to his legacy, are collaborating on these awards, which celebrate idealism, service, and youth. President Kennedy believed that young Americans who devoted themselves to public service were realizing the highest aspirations of the nation. He encouraged students to give their talents and energies back to their communities and to the country. He believed that politics was a noble profession, and he hoped that young people would achieve their own dreams by serving others. And the young people he inspired changed American history and the world. President Kennedy would have been especially proud, as we are, of the two people we honor today. Born after his time, NEW FRONTIER AWARDS AND WALTER CRONKITE FORUM TAPE 1 PAGE 4 Lisa Madigan and Kiko Martos have shown by their examples the kinds of contributions that each one of us can make. Kiko Martos has shown us that community service and advocacy can have a sustaining impact on the lives of the least privileged members of our society. Attorney General Lisa Madigan, shows us that serving in elective office can be a powerful and effective way to tackle the most challenging public issues we face. Together they show us that politics and community service go hand in hand. Lisa Madigan and Kiko Martos have brought idealism, passion, and hard work to public challenges facing this nation. We need more people like them to guide us through the difficult times ahead; and they are role models and an inspiration for young women, young Americans, and everyone who cares about the future. I am pleased today to present Lisa Madigan with the New Frontier Award for elective public service. This award is also called the Fenn Award in honor of Dan Fenn, who was the Library’s first director. Dan is with us today and maybe he could just stand and be recognized. [applause] Lisa Madigan has demonstrated the impact of elective public office through her innovative work as Attorney General for the state of Illinois. She has won praise for her work on a wide range of difficult issues, whether telemarketing fraud, combating sex crimes and really putting the power of the state on the side of women and children. She is really a role model and NEW FRONTIER AWARDS AND WALTER CRONKITE FORUM TAPE 1 PAGE 5 we’re thrilled to have her here today. We hope she’ll come back many times. Attorney General Lisa Madigan. [applause] LISA MADIGAN: Thank you very much. I wasn’t alive when John F. Kennedy was President. But my parents came of age during his presidency, and his leadership and ideals had a profound impact on them. I know that’s why when I was in fifth grade, my mother suggested that I do my first big research project on John F. Kennedy. So we went down to the Chicago Public Library and spent hours and days going through reels and reels of microfilm, because that’s what they had then. And I learned that it wasn’t just my parents whose lives John F. Kennedy had changed; he had truly changed the world. My first experience with the energy and commitment to change the world came when I had the opportunity to work for U.S. Senator Paul Simon. His office was a hive of activity and everybody in that office was committed to making a difference. They were committed to changing the world and even on days when that wasn’t possible, they were still there trying. Imbued with that spirit, and recognizing that the apartheid regime in South Africa was one of the moral disgraces of my generation, I traveled to South Africa when I graduated from college and spent a year as a volunteer high school teacher at an all-girls Catholic school. Working with young Zulu women at a time when South Africans couldn’t vote, and Nelson Mandela was still in prison, solidified my commitment to helping people by using the law and NEW FRONTIER AWARDS AND WALTER CRONKITE FORUM TAPE 1 PAGE 6 government to pursue social justice and, hopefully, to change the world for the better. Everyday as the Illinois Attorney General, I have new opportunities to fulfill my mission, and I know that we have made a difference in the lives of countless women and children, older people, and recent immigrants (so- called minorities), and working families, and people living with disabilities. And I am blessed to have the love and support of my family, in particular my parents, whose dedication to public service has served as a shining example to me of John F. Kennedy’s ideals. And I wouldn’t have been able to pursue elective office without the support and love of them and my husband. This Award will serve as a constant reminder to me to chart the right course, and I want to thank the John F. Kennedy Library and Foundation and the Harvard Institute of Politics for this distinguished Award. Thank you very much. [applause] CAROLINE KENNEDY: Now it is my honor to present the New Frontier Award to Kiko Martos who, although she is as Paul Kirk would say under 40, has already served in a multitude of public service roles and has been long dedicated to ending the inequalities in our criminal justice system. Through her community and advocacy work in New Haven and before that working against the death penalty, she has improved the lives of countless NEW FRONTIER AWARDS AND WALTER CRONKITE FORUM TAPE 1 PAGE 7 others—especially those in the Hispanic community in New Haven.

    Remarks by the Honorable Sean O’Keefe NASA Administrator Apollo 11 Anniversary Event Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum July 20, 2004 Good evening ladies and gentlemen. It is a great privilege to be in this shrine to aviation and spaceflight achievement in the presence of America's first great generation of space explorers, those who made their epic voyages possible, and of our current astronauts and the NASA team members who will enable humanity's next momentous steps in space as Dr. Marburger (Presidential Science Advisory Dr. Jack Marburger) just so eloquently discussed. There are so many great friends here from Congress who been very, very important in our quest to make this next great step feasible. Senator Bill Nelson, Congressmen Ralph Hall, Nick Lampson, Sheila Jackson Lee, Mike McIntyre, Mike Pence, Vic Snyder, Dave Weldon, Bob Aderholt, Chairman of 1 the Science Committee Sherry Boehlert, Sam Johnson, Tom Feeney, Space and Aeronautics Subcommittee Chairman Dana Rohrabacher and Juliane Sullivan who is here representing Majority Leader Tom DeLay. We are delighted for their participation, their help, their enthusiasm for I think the importance of this evening's event, as well as for our continued quest forward. I doubt there are any historical parallels to our good fortune here. Certainly, no records exist of people living in Lisbon 500 years ago attending a candlelit tribute to Amerigo Vespucci, Vasco da Gama and Ferdinand Magellan, who was about to set forth on his voyage to circle the globe. Yet here we are, in the midst of another great age of exploration, thrilled to have under one roof so many heroes who've sailed over the far horizon to the shores of space and back, including to a dusty Sea named Tranquility.

  • Commentators Bring Personality, Experiences to the Texas Daily Will Drive the Unique Mix of News, Opinion and Audience Interaction
    For immediate release Commentators Bring Personality, Experiences to The Texas Daily Will drive the unique mix of news, opinion and audience interaction ADDISON, TEXAS (Sept. 20, 2012)—The countdown is on for the Oct. 1 launch of The Texas Daily, KTXD-TV’s new morning show that mixes news, opinion and audience interaction weekday mornings from 8-9. The real production coup, however, are the 14 people currently slated to inform and entertain us – 14 of Dallas’ best-loved former anchors and journalists from the past three decades. “Jeff Brady is hosting this cast of professional journalists,” says Brian Joyce, KTXD-TV station manager. “Don’t expect them to simply read copy from a teleprompter. Jeff will introduce topics that our commentators will offer their personal opinion on. This format goes beyond the traditional noon, 6 and 10 newscasts.” As host, Brady will anchor the program every day, while the other 13 contributors rotate through, two at a time, per show. Below are the backgrounds that shape the opinions our commentators will offer their Baby Boomer audience: Jeff Brady, formerly of WFAA: A proud Aggie, Jeff served the country as a USMC Marine Corps Captain and is a veteran of the Persian Gulf War. Before landing in Dallas at WFAA, he covered politics, crime, military and human interest stories in Yuma, Ariz., Tyler and San Antonio, Texas, and Shreveport, La. He and his wife have three young children. Interesting fact: He almost went to seminary. Gary Cogill, formerly with WFAA: In his 24-year career as a movie critic for WFAA, Gary reviewed more than 10,000 films and interviewed more than 20,000 actors, writers and directors including Robert DeNiro, Meryl Streep, Stephen Spielberg and Clint Eastwood.

  • Here and Now 'Real Time' John F Kennedy Assassination Program
    Here and Now ‘Real Time’ John F Kennedy Assassination Program Hourly Details (central time) 11:00AM Julian Zelizer of Princeton’s Woodrow Wilson School, will talk about the political context of President Kennedy’s trip to Texas. Kennedy was thinking about his 1964 re-election bid and he needed Texas’ 25 electoral vote. There was a strong vein of anti-Kennedy sentiment in Texas. Kennedy spoke at two events in Fort Worth that morning and left Fort Worth for Dallas at 12:30 EST. 12:00PM Boston University Social Sciences Professor Thomas Whalen about the political aspects of the Texas trip and the first reports of the shots being fired at the Kennedy motorcade which left Love Field in Dallas right around 1 pm EST, passing the Texas School Book Depository at 1:30 EST. The first United Press International bulletin saying shots had been fired at the president’s motorcade cleared the wire at 1:34 EST. 1:00PM History Channel Scholar In Residence and University of Oklahoma History Professor Steve Gillon about the story that was breaking in Dallas during this hour on November 22, 1963. Reporters were hearing from sources that Kennedy was dead. When that was finally confirmed Walter Cronkite delivered the news to a national TV audience at 2:38 EST. Gillon is an expert on Lee Harvey Oswald and at this hour on November 22nd 1963 the world didn’t know his name but the cashier at the Texas Theater in Dallas reported a man acting suspiciously had just entered the theater. It was Oswald.

  • U.S. Attorneys Scandal and the Allocation of Prosecutorial Power
    "The U.S. Attorneys Scandal" and the Allocation of Prosecutorial Power BRUCE A. GREEN* & FRED C. ZACHARIAS** I. INTRODUCTION In 1940, Attorney General (and future Supreme Court Justice) Robert H. Jackson spoke to United States Attorneys about their duty not only to be "diligent, strict, and vigorous in law enforcement" but also "to be just" and to "protect the spirit as well as the letter of our civil liberties."' His talk was dedicated mostly to the relationship between the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the U.S. Attorneys in their shared pursuit of justice. On one hand, he observed that "some measure of centralized control is necessary" to ensure consistent interpretations and applications of the law, to prevent the pursuit of "different conceptions of policy," to promote performance standards, and to provide specialized assistance.2 On the other hand, he acknowledged that a U.S. Attorney should rarely "be superseded in handling of litigation" and that it would be "an unusual case in which his judgment 3 should be overruled." Critics of George W. Bush's administration have charged that the balance in federal law enforcement has tipped in the direction of too little prosecutorial independence and too much centralized control. 4 One of their prime examples is the discharge of eight U.S. Attorneys in late 2006,5 which * Louis Stein Professor of Law and Director, Louis Stein Center for Law and Ethics, Fordham University School of Law.
