    Default Doris Kearns Goodwin is correct: right wing Trump populists feel left out

    at the beginning of the 20th century the same dynamic existed - robber barons like Rockefeller, JP Morgan, Vanderbilt, Carnegie used a favorable government tax/regulation environment to redistribute wealth upwards and away from the working class......same situation today - however Tea Party Nation blames liberals for their plight, NOT the very people they vote for time after time

    this is insanity and they have no idea they're insane, will just keep shooting themselves in the foot

    Doris Kearns Goodwin is a plagiarist.

    The Harvard Crimson:

    "The Consequence of Plagiarism
    Overseer Doris Kearns Goodwin should step down for breach of academic honesty
    By The CRIMSON Staff,
    March 11, 2002

    "It seems that well-known historian and Harvard University Overseer Doris Kearns Goodwin consulted many sources while writing her book The Fitzgeralds and the Kennedys, but regrettably, one resource she did not consult was the Faculty of Arts and Sciences Handbook for Students. If she had, she would have been reminded that, “Students should always take great care to distinguish their own ideas and knowledge from information derived from sources…Whenever ideas or facts are derived from a student’s reading and research or from a student’s own writings, the sources must be indicated…Students who, for whatever reason, submit work either not their own or without clear attribution to its sources will be subject to disciplinary action, and ordinarily required to withdraw from the College.”

    Goodwin’s plagiarism of sentences, nearly verbatim, from source materials is inexcusable. As an Overseer, Goodwin is a leader of an academic community, the foundation of which is integrity in independent scholarship. As a leader, she should recognize that her action is unbecoming an Overseer and resign her post immediately, sending the clear message to the campus that she understands the gravity of the offense she has committed."

    Not to be believed.
