Review of Best of Enemies (2015) by Nick U — 03 Oct 2016
10/3/16 PBS Independent Lens.
A fascinating and in depth look and the Buckley-Vidal debates and the precursors to the world we find ourselves in today.
More interesting since I lived through this period and watched these debates in real time. We find ourselves in a world today not much different than the world of 1968 on race, economic inequality,far right and far left politics and down in the mud politics that doesn't debate issues but personal demagoguery. Buckley ran for mayor of NYC and discovered the angry white man as his main constituency, sound familiar Donald J. Trump.
