So far, reports on the contents of the interview say nothing about her rumored affair with actor William Holden, but they do give us a glimpse of a sassier Jackie.

    Arthur Carhart National Wilderness Training Center’s Wilderness Investigations High School Wilderness Hero #3 John F. Kennedy President John F. Kennedy; 35th U.S. President (No copyright indicated) Common Core Standard Connections Standards addressed will vary depending on how the teacher chooses to approach the lesson and/or activities. Instructions for the teacher: Rarely, if ever, is one individual responsible for the hard work and vision involved in bringing about wilderness legislation, specific wilderness designation, or wilderness management. The 35th President of the United States, John F. Kennedy, was an important player in the ultimate success of the Wilderness Act of 1964 (signed into law the year after his untimely death). John F. Kennedy is the focus of this Wilderness Hero spotlight. To help students get to know this amazing wilderness hero, choose one or more of the following: • Photocopy and hand out Wilderness Hero Sheet #3 to each student. 143 o Based on the information found there, have them write a short news article about John F. Kennedy and his role in the story of designated wilderness. • From the list of wilderness quotes found within Wilderness Hero Sheet #3, have students select one or more, copy the quote, and then interpret what the quote(s) means to them. • Use the handout as the basis of a short mini-lesson about John F. Kennedy and wilderness. • Have students research John F. Kennedy’s presidency and from their findings create a timeline showing important events taking place during President Kennedy’s administration (January 1961 – November 1963). o This was a time of significant national and world events (Cuban Missile Crisis, civil rights movement, early Viet Nam War involvement, financial challenges, etc.).

I expect to win by engaging voters through the passions that inspire I. About You 1. Why are you running for office? And what will your top 3 priority pieces of legislation if ​ elected? I’m running for Congress in Massachusetts for several reasons. First as a parent, I don’t want to be part of the first generation since the founding of our country to leave the country worse off to our children and grandchildren than our parents and grandparents left it for us. Second, because I believe that we are in the worst of times but also best of times for our democracy. Worst because Trump is an existential threat to our values, principles, ideals and pillars of our democracy. But best of times, because of the extraordinary new movement energy that has emerged. I’ve been a movement leader, builder and activist my entire career and I’m inspired by the new energy. I’ve been on the outside building coalitions to get big things done in our nation, but now want to get on the inside, bust open the doors of Congress and bring this new movement energy in to break the logjam in DC. Third, I am a service person at my core. Serving in Congress is an extraordinary opportunity to make a tangible and daily difference in people’s lives.
