Podcast appearances and mentions of Bob Dole

Send us a textIn this episode, we look at the former First Lady and her impact on the Clinton Administration. I don't think there is any debate on the powerful role Hillary Rodham Clinton had on the administration of her husband, for good and for bad. She was his tip advisor and a full partner throughout his entire political career. She would lead the efforts on Healthcare and while proving ultimately unsuccessful, she proved she was a powerful intellect and formidable person. She also was instrumental in what, I believe, was actually the worst scandal of the Clinton years. Unlike, an Arkansas land deal, or an affair with a White House Intern, the White House Travel Office, actually involved career civil servants who had come to work everyday just to do their jobs. They were not millionaire donors, or active political people, but just ordinary Federal Employees, totally ill equipped to be dragged into a legal morass that threatened to bankrupt them and destroy their lives. In the end, they were all found not guilty, and vindicated, but not before being humiliated and fired. It would be Bob Dole who would put in legislation to reimburse these folk's for the massive legal bills they wracked up defending themselves from the Clinton machine. It was the low bar moment in the years of Bill and Hillary Clinton.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Send us a textBill Clinton will have a town hall in Chillicothe , Ohio, to answer questions and roll out his economic plan to the nation. We are presenting it to you here in its entirety. You will get the chance to see Bill Clinton do what he does best, connect with people. He puts on his full salesman pitch to try and sell this plan to the American People. He does well in person, as you can tell with this crowd, but he has a rival across Pennsylvania Avenue, in Bob Dole who knows how to sell people too. As we will learn in our episodes to come.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Send us a textIn this episode we look back at the roll out for the Clinton Economic Plan. It is to this day a source of some level of controversy as to how much credit it deserves for the extraordinary boom that happened after it passed. The question is how much did help spur the economy, or was it the budget deal that Bush signed that raised some tax rates and cut some spending, or was it the simple fact that the Cold War was over and the enormous amount of money we had been spending in defense had simply gotten a lot smaller. Or could it have simply been the combination of all three. That is the scenario that I think is most likely. But in this opening battle we see both sides of Pennsylvania Avenue as they prepare to debate the questions, and address the problems of getting the nation back on the right fiscal track. It will be the first of many battles where we get to see President Bill Clinton do battle with Bob Dole.  In the end , the economic plan will pass with no support from any Republicans and the plan will lay the foundation for the Republican Revolution that would overwhelm Bill Clinton in 1994.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Send us a textIn this special edition episode we hear Bob Dole address the National Association of Counties. It is the organization that works for the nations county governments and it shares similar issues with cities which is where I spent my time as an elected official. In this speech you will come away getting a full dose of Bob Dole's legendary sense of humor and his amazing grasp of the issues facing local government in that era. It is funny how those issues stay fairly consistent through time. This is a chance to see Bob Dole at work and I think you will admire what you hear.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Send us a textThe most controversial issue that President Clinton tackled right off the back was changing the policy in the United States military banning homosexuals from serving. It would be met with opposition by Bob Dole, Strom Thurmond, Phil Gramm and the Joint Chiefs' of Staff. In fact, even the Democratic Chairman of the Armed Services Committee, Sam Nunn, was opposed to the change. But Bill Clinton insisted that the issue would be addressed. After months of debate and study the policy that would be agreed to for years was "Don't Ask don't Tell" it would stand until President Barak Obama dropped the policy and the ban for good during his Presidency. What made this issue interesting , at least for me, and I hope you will pick up in this episode, is that the opposition did not jump on this issue in an attempt to politicize the problem. It was there, and the issue hurt the President in those years, but the Republicans tried to present their opposition in ways that did not inflame the public any more than it already was upset. It was a very different way of acting than what we have seen in modern times. Especially, with an issue as easy to politicize as this one was. It is an interesting episode in which we hear from all the major players, from Bob Dole, and Bill Clinton, to the Joint Chiefs, Strom Thurmond, Phil Gramm,  Don Rickles, and countless others all trying to find a proper solution to the issue.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Send us a textAs we start down the road of the Clinton years we shall see that both men, Bill Clinton and Bob Dole , struggle just a bit to get their sea legs in their new positions. We start out with inside footage of Bill Clinton as he starts his first meeting with his cabinet and later his first meeting with the Congressional Leadership. We will also see him as he meets the Chairman of the Federal Reserve Alan Greenspan for the first time. We will then listen as Greenspan talks to 60 Minutes about his time in the chairman's role and his assessment of Bill Clinton. The two men worked closely together and often Clinton listened to him as they set financial policy together. Then we follow Bob Dole as he goes and speaks to the Nations' Governors as the Senate Minority Leader, but everyone in the room recognizes his unspoken position as the leader of the Republican Party in America. That is a new role for Bob Dole who has often been the Senate Leader but usually under a Republican President, either Ronald Reagan or George H. W. Bush, but in 1993 he is the unquestioned  leader of his party. Here you will hear him speak and answer questions with unusual humor and candor, as both men begin a new era in Washington D.C.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Get ready to Choose Life (and a podcast!), because Season 11 is officially here, and we're kicking off our brand-new theme of 'Drugs' movies with a true behemoth of 90s films: Danny Boyle's iconic Trainspotting (1996). Join us as we unpack why Trainspotting has captivated audiences for decades, despite its characters being, well, mostly "assholes". We dive deep into the film's gritty depiction of heroin use – a portrayal that absolutely, objectively does not glamorize addiction, no matter what Bob Dole (who hadn't even seen it!) might have thought. We'll explore how Danny Boyle's visionary direction, heavily influenced by Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange, delivers a visually experimental and energetic experience despite its heavy subject matter. You'll hear about the famous "Worst Toilet in Scotland", which still manages to skeeve Sarah out to this day and wonder if there is "too much poo" in this movie. We'll dissect the infamous "Choose Life" monologue, which turns out to be far more cynical than many might initially believe. We'll also give our two cents on the film's unique cast, from Ewan McGregor's smug Renton, Robert Carlyle's terrifying Begbie, Jonny Lee Miller's Sick Boy, and Ewen Bremner's surprisingly pure Spud. Here's what you can expect from this episode: We discuss why Trainspotting was chosen to kick things off in season one. Expect a deep dive into the controversial accusations of the film "glamorizing" drug use. We break down the unlikable, yet entertaining, ensemble of characters including Ewan McGregor's Renton, Robert Carlyle's Begbie, and Ewen Bremner's Spud. We consider Trainspotting as a coming-of-age narrative, particularly for Renton. Hear about the infamous feud between Danny Boyle and Ewan McGregor.

Send us a text1993 to 1994 will really be a clash between two political titans, Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole and President Bill Clinton. As we begin in what will be essentially a two part biographical series of both men, we thought we would take a look at both of them from interviews made during the early days of 1993, before we had any idea exactly what the future would hold for either of them. We will listen to several interviews of then President-Elect Clinton aired on the day he took office looking back at the journey that brought him to the White House. Then we will listen to a 60 Minutes interview conducted by Steve Kroft with Bob Dole and hear his life story and about how he was dealing with the new Clinton Administration. In it you see how his life was reborn thanks to his new status as the leading Republican in America. This episode we hope will give you some real insights into the personalities of both men, Bill Clinton and Bob Dole, and how it would affect the history of the nation over these next four years.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Send us a textWhen we finished our 14th Season it was Inauguration Day for Bill Clinton. In this episode, we pick up where we left off on Inauguration afternoon and evening. We will witness the celebrations of the victors and the agony of the defeated as Bill Clinton and the democrats enjoy their victory until late into the evening. It was for them a fun night, and first few days at the helm of power. But when they wake up from the honeymoon it will be Bob Dole who will be ready to get down to the business of running the country. Here is day one of the Clinton Administration.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Send us a textIn our premier episode of our 15th Season, we start back at the dawn of the Clinton Administration as Bill Clinton has just been elected President of the United States, and his party is left in full control of Congress. It all appears to be a beautiful honeymoon on the horizon for the new Commander in Chief. There is only one problem from basking in the glow of that honeymoon. Bob Dole is the chaperone. We will open up with Bob Dole's day after the election press conference in the Senate as he runs down the election results across the country and welcomes the new President Elect to Washington D.C. Dole will be quick to point out that his 43 Senate votes is the equal to Bill Clinton's victory percentage. It is clear by this press conferences' end that the new President will not have an opposition leader willing to lay down for him. But what is also clear is that Bob Dole does not intend to be an obstructionist on every single issue but hopes to find common ground with the new President. It is the first day of a political duel of two titans who will match wits with one another for the next four years and in the process both the Republican Party and the career of Bob Dole, who just the year before had contemplated retirement, will be re-born. In this episode, we will also listen to two documentaries that will look back at the life of the Senate Leader as we start our three season look at the career of Bob Dole and his chief rival Bill Clinton.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Send us a textIn this brief episode we talk about the new series that will begin on June 11, 2025. Plus we also talk about the future of this broadcast. This look back at Bob Dole will also mark the end of our look at the Greatest Generation of Americans that overcame a depression, fought World War 2 , and came home to build the American Century while winning the Cold War. Bob Dole's story is their final story on the national political stage. After Bob Dole walks away in 1996, this generation will begin their gradual fading away and into history. We are honored to tell this story about this man who was a true American Hero in every sense of the word. We are not sure where this podcast will be going from here. So, while we lay out the plan for the next 3 seasons of our show, we are also listening for any ideas about the future or whether we are at the end of our run. We look forward to hearing from you as this story unfolds. Thank you for tuning in, this is a joy to be telling these stories.Randal WallaceHost of "The Randal Wallace Presents" Podcast, formerly known as Bridging the Political Gap Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

He has entertained tens of millions of people over the course of four decades with iconic film and TV appearances, yet he remains humble and modest - He is Mystic Pizza, Falcon Crest and Perry Mason (to name a few!) actor, William R. Moses!His Mom, Marian McCargo and big brothers, Rick and Harry Moses were in the business and, although his step-dad, Congressman, Alphonso E. Bell did not entirely approve, Billy, a high school and college athlete found himself pulled towards acting. A typical Take-Your-Kid-To-Work day found young Billy on the set with Leonard Nimoy, Fess Parker and John Wayne! Or on Capitol Hill with Ted Kennedy, Gerry Ford and Bob Dole. Ample inspiration to dream big! Billy's resume includes the iconic prime time soaps Falcon Crest and Melrose Place, the role of Marc Christian, Rock Hudson's boyfriend, in a groundbreaking film about the legendary Hollywood and LGBTQ history figure, and he has the distinct honor of sharing his feature film debut, in the movie Choices, with fellow newby, Demi Moore!As attorney and P.I. Ken Malansky in NBC's Perry Mason TV film series, Billy worked closely with Raymond Burr and, as it turns out, our own Fritz Coleman who guest starred on an episode entitled, The Case of the Telltale Talk Show Host.From a Mystery Cruise Ship with the Olsen twins to Perry Mason's Colorado courtroom, to the magical setting of Mystic, Connecticut, to his first Negroni on The Love Boat set with Eddie Albert to valiantly attempting to keep Viola Davis from Getting Away With Murder, Billy's stories provide a front row seat to the show biz of the glorious final few decades of the 20th century and journeying on into the aughts and beyond.In recommendations--Weezy:  The Lost Passenger by Frances QuinnFritz: Mobland on Paramount+Path Points of Interest:William R.

Live, gavel-to-gavel coverage of the U.S. Senate floor. It began 39 years ago -- June 2nd, 1986 – Day One of C-SPAN2. Here's one of the first things heard that first day of Senate TV: "Today begins the video history book. No longer will the great debates in this Chamber be lost forever. What a thrill it would be to watch Henry Clay, John Calhoun, or Daniel Webster in action. Of course, there were no cameras or tape recorders rolling when those congressional giants spoke. But sadly, the sights and sounds of great debates featuring such legends as Everett Dirksen, Lyndon Johnson, Hubert Humphrey, and Howard Baker, men who lived during the age of radio and television, were also lost forever. Now, future generations can have the opportunity to watch history in the making, thanks to videotape. So there are a number of good things about to happen." That was Republican Majority Leader Bob Dole. In a few days: the 39th anniversary of live, gavel-to-gavel television coverage of the U.S. Senate floor... Bob Dole listed several lions of the Senate ... In this week's episode of C-SPAN's podcast "The Weekly" — we hear from other lions of the Senate — lions of the Senate press corps ... three top Senate observers pick their favorite moments from 39 years of the Senate on TV. Our three special guests: • Carl Hulse of the New York Times • Paul Kane of the Washington Post • Chad Pergram of Fox News Which favorite moments did they pick – and why? And what big moments from Senate history before there was TV do they wish they could have witnessed? Find out in "The Weekly." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Send us a textOn June 11, 2025, our podcast will embark on the final story in the original thesis we intended to tell when we started this podcast nearly five years ago. On June 11, 1996, exactly 29 years ago, we saw Bob Dole resign his Senate seat, giving one of the most important speeches we ever heard, to pursue full time his bid for the White House. He would be the last of "The Greatest Generation" to do so. In 1992, in the midst of a recession, the Republican Party would be swept out of power losing not only the White House, but the House and Senate as well. On the Federal level of Government, one man stood alone, as the leader of his party. That man was also the last of the World War 2 generation to be left on the national stage. He was Senate Minority leader Robert J. Dole of Kansas. Over the next three seasons we will tell his story and the story of the rise of the modern Republican Party. It will be the final story of National leadership for the generation of people who built the American Century. For all the attention a new generation of Republican leaders would garner, it was in fact, Bob Dole, so often in the shadow of the giants of his age, from Nixon to Reagan to Bush, and who would largely be forgotten in the coming era of Gingrich , Clinton, the second Bush, McCain, and now Donald Trump, who actually led the Republican Party out of the political wilderness and back to power in both houses of Congress, and he was able to do it even as his own efforts to win the Presidency fell short. It was a remarkable final chapter for this greatest of  generations and the opening chapter in the career of our host Randal Wallace.  This series will be that story too, a story straight from the heart of our host over these next three seasons. As he was an eyewitness, to the last campaign of the very man who would become that last living symbol of the bygone era led by the Greatest Generation. Join us for : Season 15 - Bob Dole 1993 - 1995 The Last Man StandingSeason 16 - Bob Dole  The Life that Brought Him There     &- The 1995 Resurrection of Bill Clinton  Season 17 - Bob Dole 1996 The Campaign of a Lifetime. Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Send us a textJudy Rodman was a towering figure in the history of the city of Myrtle Beach. Starting as the Horry County Co-Chair for the Bob Dole for President campaign in 1988, then serving three terms, in two different eras, on the Myrtle Beach City Council, and then serving as a member of the City owned Myrtle Beach Sheraton Hotel Board, and throughout her entire tenure the city's representative on the South Carolina Hall of Fame Board, Judy Rodman maintained a dominant presence in the growth and success of the city of Myrtle Beach S.C. It cannot be overstated the powerful role she has played in turning this once sleepy, seasonal, tourist destination for North and South Carolina residents into an international tourism powerhouse. Through it all, Judy Rodman was there and her influence is literally everywhere you look as you drive down any road in the city she called home. Judy Rodman led initiatives to put utilities underground, protect trees, limit the number of billboards, build a Convention hotel, improve the cities recreation facilities, and look out for the growing senior population that has now grown to be the majority of the residents that have made the Myrtle Beach area their home. Judy Rodman did it all in her quiet, intelligent, understated way, often overshadowed by the more boisterous personalities of the Mayors and council people she served with in her decades of service to the city of Myrtle Beach in several different capacities.  In this special edition of our podcast we try to capture some of the magic that was always present whenever Judy Rodman entered the room, as our community,  Myrtle Beach,  says farewell to , as Senator Ernest Hollings once said of Senator Strom Thurmond upon his passing, " A Mighty Oak in the world of public service"  Boundless Insights - with Aviva KlompasIn depth analysis of what's happening in Israel—and why it matters everywhere.Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifyQuestions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Send us a textIn this special edition episode of our podcast we take a look back at a very special man, former Senator Alan Simpson of Wyoming. He passed away in March at age 93. He had been the Senate Republican Whip under Bob Dole for a decade and together they made the institution work. Alan Simpson had one of the best wits in the Senate, or even all of Congress. He could make you laugh outload uproariously at times. He also never pulled any punches, whether it was holding the President of the opposing party to the fire, or even some of the leadership of his own. Alan Simpson never shied away from a fight or a controversial issue, including calling the AARP on the carpet as a special interest group held together in the quest of discount airline tickets. Alan Simpson was one of a kind. Alan Simpson will be missed and in this episode we will take a few minutes to enjoy his personality one more time. We will also learn about his very special friendship forged behind the barbed wire fence of a Japanese internment camp during World War 2 with another Boy Scout who would go on to be a United States Congressman and Cabinet member, Norman Moneta. Plus, we will hear him remember his times in Washington with two other of his great friends, who are very important to our podcast, former President George H. W. Bush, who we are chronicling now, and Bob Dole who will be the next man we chronicle. This show is a lot of fun looking back at a man who could best be described as that, fun. Also, this show has a long dedication to three other great people admired by our host, his aunt Katherine Wallace, South Carolina former Representative Bubber Snow, and "Big" George Foreman, the former 2 time World Boxing Champion, and the man who stole America's heart with his miraculous comeback win at 45 in boxing, and his amazingly good cooking grille.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Schumer said he's voting for the GOP spending bill. What a wussy. In a moment with a radicalized Republican Party led by Donald Trump and that calls for a real FIGHT over the Constitution, Schumer thinks he's back in the 1990's dealing with Republicans like Bob Dole. I know I'm a broken record, but Democrats need to fight. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

One half of the legendary duo, Sam and Dave, Sam Moore has died. He was the high voice on their well- known hits: “Soul Man” and “Hold on I'm Coming,” which was used by Barack Obama in his presidential campaign. He also did campaign work for Bob Dole and Donald Trump. Sam was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of fame in 1992. He had many admirers including Bruce Springsteen. Sam and Dave were the number two recording stars for Stax Records, behind Otis Redding. They also recorded “You Don't Know Like I Know,” and “I Thank You.” “Soul Man” charted again in the late 1970s when the “Blues Brothers,” John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd, recorded it. Rest in peace Sam.

Send us a textHappy New Year 2025!!! What an amazing year 2024 was for us at this podcast. For 18 weeks we were the number 1 American History Podcast on Feedspot, and for just a little while we had our sister podcast "The Richard Nixon Experience" ranked at number 7 at the same time. We had two podcasts in the top 10. I am proud of that!!It was a year in which we said goodbye to a lot of legendary figures and in this episode we spend sometime looking back at their remarkable contributions to America and the World, in both politics and journalism. We will also preview two of the coming seasons for 2025, though one of the previews comes from our friends at CNN, as they were reviewing the 1996 election in real time. Finally, we want to get on your radar for not one, but two books, that our host Randal Wallace wrote in 2024, they will be hitting bookshelves (and Amazon) in the coming year. "The Leadership Lessons from the Cold War" should be out in the spring or early summer of 2025 and our novel, should be out in the fall. We are excited at the prospects for both in the new year. But, most of all, we want to say a simple thank you to all of you for tuning in to our podcast for another year. We hope you are enjoying the episodes as much as we enjoy bringing them to you. Thank you so much for tuning in, Randal Wallace Host  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Was Dr. Who right when he said military intelligence is a contradiction in terms? Brad Abrahams is back (with Liv, Jake, and Travis) with the story of the “Gulf Breeze 6”, in which six military intelligence officers with top-secret clearance went AWOL from one of Europe's largest Cold War bases in 1990. Their reason? A Ouija board told them to. Convinced they were on a divine mission to stop Armageddon, they fled to Florida, believing Jesus (piloting a UFO) would meet them for the rapture. Even more bizarre than that last sentence was the punishment meted out to them. Were they part of an end-of-the-world cult? Did figures like Bob Dole and George Bush intervene on their behalf? This insane tale is a true mystery to this day, as the trail has gone cold since its explosion in the early ‘90s news cycle. At the end of the episode, we're joined by Tanner Boyle of the ‘Getting Spooked' newsletter to dive deeper into the Gulf Breeze 6 mystery, and explore whether any parapolitical shenanigans were at play.

The ladies are considering running for school board. Look out District 281! Amy recaps her many back-to-back trips including an epic Taylor Swift Concert Report!!!!!! In Miami!!!! Hotel room issues, rally bus mishaps, and a random cast of weirdos can't stop your girl from having one amazing show. Buckle up Swifties! Approved/Denied: Timothée Chalamet plays Bob Dylan.

Send us a textIn this episode we see the Senators as they discuss this appointment of Clarence Thomas to Supreme Court. We begin with a meeting of three of the most powerful Republican Senators on Capitol Hill , John Danforth, Bob Dole, and Strom Thurmond. They will discuss the qualifications of Judge Thomas and the strategy for getting him through the confirmation process. Then Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell comes out and you will hear the arguments against Thomas that the Democrats are planning to make in the hearings to come. They will question his commitment to Civil Rights, Affirmative Action, and what they feel his position on abortion rights are all going to be. Then they try to sneak in some attacks based on race. But Senator Strom Thurmond will step up to counteract that attack by inviting several leaders in South Carolina to come to the Judge's defense and show there support for Thomas. It is all here in this episode along with the opening questions that will begin with the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Senator Joe Biden of Delaware.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

48 years ago in October, a the first vice presidential candidate from Minnesota took the national stage for a debate. That was Walter Mondale, a 48-year-old U.S. senator from Minnesota, running alongside newcomer Jimmy Carter, the former governor of Georgia.Mondale's 1976 debate against Republican VP nominee Bob Dole was the first time two vice presidential candidates met up for a live, televised debate. It was a fiery political moment. President Richard Nixon had resigned just two years earlier over the Watergate scandal. And Americans were disillusioned by the war in Vietnam. Part of Mondale and Dole's exchange left a mark on the rest of Bob Dole's career: Mondale called him a “hatchet man” and the name stuck.Mondale and running mate Jimmy Carter went on to defeat incumbent Gerald Ford in the presidential election that November.

I'd love to hear your thoughts - send me a text hereDanny Inouye wanted to be a doctor when he grew up - specifically, he wanted to be a surgeon. When he was a senior in high school he was a Red Cross volunteer. When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor he saw the planes flying over Honolulu and rushed to an aid station where he treated civilians injured by falling anti-aircraft shells. As soon as he could, Danny enlisted in the army and was sent to Italy with the 442nd Regimental Combat Team. The war shattered his dream of becoming a doctor but a fellow wounded veteran, Bob Dole (yes, that Bob Dole) told him of his plan to become a lawyer and a politician in Kansas. Danny liked the sound of that, returned to Hawaii and entered politics as well. Little did he know he would become arguably the most influential politician in the history of Hawaii, whether the Kingdom, the Republic, or the State.The Ghosts of the Pacific Theme is Ukulele and Love Birds by emjaydabayou, with a few Waves of Hawaii added for ambiance.The Ghosts of the Pacific Transition music are some Uke Chords by turkitron.The outro music this week is the DC Area Hardcore Punk band Marginal Man's Missing Rungs. Inouye's son Kenny was their guitarist in the 1980s.As always, a very special thanks to the Commando Pando Cap Company for its continued help to spread the word about the podcast on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/MountainUpCapCompany Climb to Glory!For more information about the podcast visit: ·       The GoA website: https://www.ghostsofarlingtonpodcast.com    ·       Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ghostsofarlingtonpodcast·       Twitter: https://twitter.com/ArlingtonGhosts·       Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ghostsofarlington/

Bill Clinton bounces back from early problems in his presidency and looks to become the first two-term Democratic president since Franklin Roosevelt. To stop him, Republicans turn to Senator Bob Dole and try to conjure images of a glorious American past that only they can bring back. But Dole won't be the Democrats' biggest problem: with re-election on the line, Bill and Hillary Clinton will find themselves at the center of multiple scandals. *** To listen to the entire series—all 59 episodes—right now and ad-free, become a subscriber at IntoHistory.com, a channel of history podcasts made just for history lovers like you.

A powerful U.S. Senator. A leading aide to the New York Governor. A leading Korea expert. All prominent figures in the last several months who have been accused of being foreign agents, working on behalf of foreign governments to influence U.S. policy. To make sense of this all, A'ndre chatted with Casey Michel, author of Foreign Agents and the Director of the Combating Kleptocracy Program at the Human Rights Foundation, to understand the history of foreign lobbying in the United States and to talk through some of the more high profile cases. Casey profiles Ivy Lee, the father of the modern PR industry, and how he helped fascist dictators like Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini in the 1930s sell their ideologies to the broader public. The discussion also covered Paul Manafort, a convicted felon and former GOP strategist known for his work on the Donald Trump and Bob Dole presidential campaigns. A'ndre and Casey reviewed recent notable cases, including:Senator Bob Menendez's recent conviction that he accepted gold bars to promote policy favored by the Egyptian government; Former NSC official and think tank expert Sue Mi Terry's alleged advocacy of South Korean interests on behalf of her Korean government handlers;New York Governor Kathy Hochul's aide Linda Sun's alleged engagement in political activities in China's interest within the governor's office;and former Senator Bob Dole's advocacy on behalf of a Russian oligarch.You can purchase Casey's new book, Foreign Agents, here.

Vice President George H. W. Bush is Ronald Reagan's heir apparent. But in order to defeat Democratic nominee Michael Dukakis, Bush must embrace Reagan's conservatism, get the best of a respected primary challenger named Bob Dole, and escape the shadow of what many call the biggest political scandal since Watergate. *** To listen to the entire series—all 59 episodes—right now and ad-free, become a subscriber at IntoHistory.com, a channel of history podcasts made just for history lovers like you.

Tomorrow, August 30, the biopic Reagan hits theaters, with Dennis Quaid playing President Ronald Reagan. We're so fortunate on the show today to have a man who knew Reagan well—Ken Khachigian, whose new book Behind Closed Doors: In the Room with Reagan and Nixon, focuses on his relationship with not just Reagan but also President Richard Nixon, as well. Right smack dab on the front cover of the book, which just came out on July 23, Ken is described as a speechwriter, confidant, and strategist to political legends. In today's episode, I ask Ken what role he enjoyed playing most and why, and which role was the most challenging for him. Ken was a longtime aide to President Nixon and was there for both his resignation 50 years ago this month and the Frost/Nixon interviews. Later, he was President Reagan's chief speechwriter. Ken is a veteran of nine presidential campaigns, and in this book takes us in the room with not just one but two presidents. In addition to his work as a successful attorney, Ken became California's premier Republican strategist in elections for governor, senator, and attorney general. He helped Nixon craft his memoirs and wrote notable speeches for Reagan like his first inaugural address, welcome home remarks for hostages taken during the Iran hostage crisis, his acceptance speech at the 1984 Republican National Convention, and, four years later, his farewell address at the 1988 Republican National Convention. Most recently, when it comes to presidential campaigns, he served as a senior advisor on the 1996 campaign of Bob Dole, the 2000 campaign of John McCain, and the 2008 campaign of Fred Thompson. Take a listen to what he has to say.   Behind Closed Doors: In the Room with Reagan and Nixon by Ken Khachigian   Visit Ken's website at reaganandnixon.com!

Sixty years ago, convening in San Francisco, Republicans nominated firebrand Arizona Senator Barry Goldwater as their party's nominee against incumbent Democrat Lyndon Johnson. But ,many Republicans in 1964 saw Goldwater as too extreme. And Goldwater himself didn't do much to calm those concerns, with his acceptance speech. After being trounced by LBJ that fall, Goldwater remained in the Senate for another 22 years, helping shape the conservative policies of the GOP. In this 1988 interview Goldwater talks about how nasty politics have become, but how otimistic he is about America's youth.

The Biden Administration recently proposed new regulatory guidelines that would permit agencies to impose price controls on products based on inventions derived from upstream federally funded research. The new regulations would affect such price controls by expanding the “march-in” power of the Bayh-Dole Act.In addition to its core function allowing universities and other contractors to retain ownership of inventions created with federal funds, this law authorizes, under very specific circumstances, the funding agency (e.g., the National Institutes of Health (NIH) or the Department of Energy) to grant licenses, without authorization of the patent owner, to any inventions made with funding provided by the agency. The proposed new guidelines would add the price of the end-product derived from those early-stage inventions to the list of specific circumstances.Since its enactment in 1980, the march-in power of the Bayh-Dole Act has never been used. When asked about using the price of the end product as one of the circumstances, the law's namesake Senators, Birch Bayh and Bob Dole, stated the text of their law did not authorize price-based march-in. Importantly, the NIH has rejected numerous petitions over the past several decades to use the march-in power to lower the prices of patented drugs or medical devices. Proponents of the new regulatory guidelines, however, argue that the statute does authorize an agency to consider price as a march-in trigger and the Biden Administration argues that march-in is a key tool to lower drug prices. This panel discussed the regulatory proposal for price controls under the Bayh-Dole Act and other vehicles (e.g., the IRA and reasonable/reference pricing clauses in licenses or collaborative research agreements), whether they represent regulatory overreach by the Executive Branch, and whether it is wise policy to implement price controls on drugs and other products or services in the U.S. innovation economy.

Ann Taenes - Washington Post Trump's RNC is reuniting the band: convicted criminals Paul Manafort and Steve Bannon (and maybe now-in-jail Peter Navarro) plus world-class whackos Steven Miller and Corey Lewandowski...under the "leadership" of daughter-in-law Lara Trump. It's looking like a rerun of 2020, but better organized but without Jared or Ivanka. Just this week, we're seeing The screening for new Republican National Committee employees: do they agree that the 2020 election was stolen?  Michigan's Ronna “Don't Call Me Romney” McDaniel's NBC gig lasts half a Scaramucci after an on-air rebellion  The Zillow listings for Trump properties will have to wait as the Sneaker-and-Bible Salesman gets a $300-million reprieve from a New York appeals court Trump gets a tenuous windfall with Truth Social, but the company continues to lose money and could end up bankrupt (just like Trump casinos, Trump Airline, Trump Water, Trump University etc. etc.) Trump gets to pray about his first criminal trial, now set to begin on April 15th (which likely means fewer rounds of golf).

Meanwhile Trump's Michigan remains in shambles. We're joined this week by longtime Republican political consultant Stuart Stevens, now a senior adviser with the Lincoln Project. Stevens has worked at the top level of more presidential and senatorial campaigns than just about anyone. His first presidential effort: the Bob Dole campaign in 1996. His book The Big Enchilada is a chronicle of George W. Bush's 2000 campaign.  He is also a prolific writer. It Was All A Lie: How The Republican Party Became Donald Trump is his eighth book; his ninth book, The Conspiracy to End America Five Ways came out last October.

New for 2024 - EXPLAINED with Anthony Davis joins the FIVE MINUTE NEWS podcast channel. Disgraced former President Donald Trump came first in the Iowa caucuses on Monday with his rivals languishing far behind, a victory that affirmed his grip on the 2024 Republican presidential nomination. In what was the lowest-turnout caucus in a quarter-century, participants endured life-threatening cold and dangerous driving conditions to meet in hundreds of schools, churches and community centers across the state. But those who ventured out delivered a roughly 30-point win for Trump that smashed the record for a contested Iowa Republican caucus with a margin of victory exceeding Bob Dole's nearly 13-percentage-point victory in 1988.

With a split southern primary day, the Democrats have no clear leader. Team Dukakis would like to have been thought of as the leader, but Illinois and Michigan spoiled that. Only one state can settle things. And the Big Three Democratic campaigns settle on New York. Millions of dollars, frenetic debates, subways and hot dogs. It's all fun and games until New York City's mayor gets involved. Meanwhile, Bush is rapidly securing his nomination, but no one can tell Bob Dole that. He still has a few plans, if anyone will listen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

After Dark with Hosts Rob & Andrew – Trump's huge margin of victory was the largest in an Iowa caucus, passing the record of 12.8 percentage points for Bob Dole in 1988. The former President received at least 20 of 40 delegates, while his 2nd place challenger, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, took eight, followed by former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley at seven.

A deep freeze has gripped Chicago, with temperatures plunging to an Arctic minus 32 degrees Fahrenheit over the weekend. As a result, Tesla owners are becoming deeply frustrated with their vehicles not being able to charge or hold a charge, even after a trip to a Supercharger. Rapper Montero Lamar Hill, also known as Lil Nas X, apologized Monday amid backlash to recent material he released that prompted accusations of "mocking Christianity." "I know I messed up really bad this time," Hill, who became famous for his 2018 hit single "Old Town Road," said in an Instagram video. "I can act unbothered all I want, but it's definitely taken a mental toll on me. I'm not some evil demon guy trying to destroy everybody's values and stuff like that.

John McCain's life of service is an example always. Especially around 9/11. And given the state of the world, America, and our politics, we miss him now more than ever.  He showed us that after tragedy there can be triumph.  McCain showed us how to be, as Hemingway described, “Stronger at the broken places”.  But some things break beyond repair. And that might be the case now for the GOP. As it continues to disintegrate, falling further and further away from the party of McCain. And the party of Colin Powell. And the party of Bob Dole. And the Party of Mitt Romney, who this week announced is not running for Senate again.  Everything is different now. And every 9/11 is different. And 9/11/2023 was no exception. Lots of people still say never forget. But others, far too many in power, they did forget.  Your host Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) was there to remind us all on 9/11: “Today is a day about coming back after adversity and becoming stronger in the broken places. NYC did it. The Pentagon did it. America did it. Rodgers will too.” Every episode of Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the most important news stories–and offers light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It's independent content for independent Americans. In these trying times especially, Independent Americans is your trusted place for independent news, politics, inspiration and hope.
