After Words

After Words: Jeff Greenfield, "Then Everything Changed: Stunning Alternate Histories of American Politics: JFK, RFK, Ford, Carter, Reagan," hosted by Ted Koppel

About the Program

Jeff Greenfield theorizes on how American politics and culture might have been altered if five historic events had occurred differently.  He talks with Ted Koppel about a John Kennedy administration that never was and a Robert Kennedy administration that comes to fruition.  He also imagines the re-election of Gerald Ford and the defeat in 1980 of Republican presidential candidate Ronald Reagan.
