In short, there's simply not
A more congenial spot
For happily-ever-aftering than here
In Camelot.
— Alan Jay Lerner
At a Harvard symposium on John F. Kennedy last month, the school's president, historian Drew Faust, lamented today's war on expertise.
"Kennedy's appeal for recognition of what he called the mutual dependence of the worlds of intellectuals and politicians, his call for a central role for learning and expertise, these are all too timely today," she said.
I too miss a leader who relishes reality.
Right now we're ruled by an unmoored radical ideologue bent on destroying all trust in science, economics, statesmanship, politics, rhetoric, reporting, truth-telling, governing and the arts, and who has less sense of history than a crayfish.
In his world, self supersedes society.
No spot for happily-ever-aftering.
NOTE: May 29 marks the centennial of JFK's birth.
