About this listen

Three years as President of the USA, a Naval Reserve Officer, a war hero. Despite coming from a wealthy family, JFK pushed for a new frontier, to push Americans to be better, to take people out of poverty, to provide more opportunity, to improve the economy to make it better for everyone. Asking individuals to contribute to the country he served, he developed the Peace Corp to push soft power and support developing countries. Like most leaders, he made mistakes and yet was renown for being a great crisis manager. 
Join Lee and Greg as they hear Sedgil's arguments for why JFK is his favourite political leader of the 20th Century and what we can learn from his character and ways.
