Mount Rushmore: The Wisdom of our Fathers
The United States has had failures of presidential leadership, but it has
also had presidents — Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt —
who were lions on a world stage. This year we're selecting another president.
Where will this year's winner eventually stand in the eyes of history? What
can they learn from our greatest leaders of the past?

Join us for this revolutionary lecture series,
Mount Rushmore: The Wisdom of Our Fathers, hosted by retirement communities across
the country. Six 90-minute sessions will be led by a presidential expert, addressing
topics such as the history of Mount Rushmore and the political issues that faced each
of these four presidents. The final two sessions will present live webcasts direct
from Mount Rushmore.
The curriculum for Mount Rushmore was created by
Dr. Meena Bose, the Chair of the
Peter S. Kalikow Center for the Study of the American Presidency at Hofstra University
(host of a McCain-Obama 2008 presidential debate).

“Your speaker is obviously brilliant, his language is rich, his imagination
fertile. He presented a totally new way of thinking about historical facts. I
think the quality of the program is impeccable. If you can get speakers like
him for future events, I will definitely be attending!”
-Neil H., participant in Rushmore lecture series
