If we remember the words of John F. Kennedy’s speeches, it’s in large part thanks to Theodore Sorensen. But Sorensen was far more than just a speechwriter—he in large part shaped the president’s image and legacy, serving as a political strategist and a key adviser. Leonard Lopate spoke to Ted Sorensen a number of times, and you can hear—and see a video of—his 2008 interview.

Poor Ted. He was a brilliant man but a hell of a liar. His sad departure reminds us that in the end the successful hustlers got the way of the duped little guy: DUST TO DUST!
Still, God bless his soul as he was a most gifted human being. Alas, his talents were bought by people nowhere his stature and they dragged him down to so little accomplished, so many lies told.
