An Evening with David and Julie Eisenhower
Вставка

- Friends of the LBJ Library had the rare opportunity to hear from David and Julie Eisenhower in a program on January 26, 2012. The daughter of Richard Nixon and grandson of Dwight D. Eisenhower shared fascinating memories of life in the White House and post-presidential years. While they didn't endorse a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, they offered an assessment of what the American voting public is seeking in 2012. Co-sponsored by the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History.

Say what you will about Presidential records, the Eisenhower, Nixon and Johnson children were all pure class.
I got to travel with them on a small cruise. It was a D day cruise. I got to talk to them on the buses to the sites and also on the ship. They were wonderful. They could not have been nicer. They are also a wealth of knowledge and stories. Just a great couple.
I was a contemporary of theirs and watched from a considerable distance in complete admiration at the "puppy love" that was obvious between David and Julie while their fathers were in office.
Julie Nixon a class act.
Amazing how well they are suited and obviously a devoted amusing couple. I really enjoyed this!
What a delight the Eisenhowers are. Pure class and intelligence.
Love it!
Its video like this that makes youtube so valuable. Thanks for posting.
Absolutely 👏🙌
Julie and David were the cutest couple and the Nation's Sweethearts when they were dating.
David still has the same mannerisms.... Julie was so pretty and she still is!
This was a treasure of knowledge and insight
To me I always thought about Eisenhower being President and a 5 Star General. There had been 33 (I think) men previous to him as President. There had only been, what, 3 or 4 men holding the rank of 5 Star General. His heart was always with the Army and its men.
Interesting couple. Should have been interviewed separately . Together … David reminded me of R Nixon,
David should just lecture, quite interesting but would like to hear from Julie a little more. Great!
My first time to watch this video , thank you 🙏 nothing too late . 🙌☝️
Really interesting what a fasinating couple
Something tells me that Richard Nixon was happy about this marriage
Would have been nice if Mr. had permitted his wife Julie to speak a bit more.
hi Julie, hi David!
He keeps interrupting and taking over every time she is speaking...
Either he had time budget, or he is just a bad listener
I have stories about both David and Julie. I interviewed David for `Eye` Magazine `What`s Sexy?` Told me back in the Sixties his `dream girl` after Julie was another Julie, Julie Christie. About Julie whom I was profiling for a cover story `Ladies Home Journal`..when Richard Nixon read the piece (faintly satirical) he quashed it. I was told he then added `Sandra Shevey` to his Hate List. It is dismaying to realize one`s heros have feet of clay but I have to say I am disappointed in David`s memory of Suez. American war ships were flying Egypt colours and when the SS Liberty fired believing their waters to have been invaded by Egypt American sea men waves them down. At the very moment this fiasco was going on Arthur Krim, Chief Democratic Fundraiser, was dropping millions of dollars in the lap of Lyndon Johnson. Johnson, fearing that the SS Liberty scenario might imperil the transfer of funds rushed Krim to account. As the story goes Krim was confused, wondered what was the rush, had figured on getting a drink and a meal first. Later of course he discovered what was up. David was re-fresh with his history. These are important facts to get right.
something about Julie Eisenhower reminds me of Nancy Reagan.

Really? That's curious. There seems no resemblance. Anyway, Julie seems very interesting. She handles herself well. It can't be easy.
Are these forums conducted in the auditorium of the LBJ library or The University of Texas?
No... at the local White Castle hamburger joint down the street.
@@hankaustin7091 HAHAHAHA
This was in the main auditorium of the LBJ Library building.
I'm disappointed don't have sound as always
💕😊❤️🇺🇸💯💯💯
Would be nice to hear all the way through
I saw you two one morning during your honeymoon. You were sitting i a private room at Lost Tree Country Club on Singer Island. I'd gone to work that day with my mom who worked there.
"not one intervening event in the ten years after Vietnam" Grenada?
Good catch. I think because even though it was consequential, it was brief and small in comparison.
David Eisenhower, as a university professor, LOVED to talk. Gawd, make him stop! But the other thing that annoys me is he never directly answers a question head-on. He glosses past the actual question and just goes off on whatever tangent *he* wants to talk about. And talk. And talk. And talk.
Spoken like someone who has nothing of their own to contribute...
He is a real nice man I work at Penn, and met him a few times. Looks like Ike a lot.
?
No ma
David talks too much. Poor Julie.
Julie is cosigning LBJ's BS on Vietnam...no dearie, that was a bees' nest and one that we should have avoided.
FYI.....NEITHER Johnson nor Nixon started tha VIETNAM war!
The first "advisors" with a small compliment of soldiers were sent to Viet Nam by TRUMAN and EISENHOWER to assist the FRENCH.
GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT.
