Episode 357 GEORGE H. W. BUSH 1992 The Changing of the Guard (Part 39) Election Night '92 (B) The Speeches
Send us a textIn the second installment of the Election Night from 1992, we see the official changing of the guard. It is at this moment, on election night, that one generation of leadership gives way to another. The World War 2 Presidents, that had served from two generations, those who ran the war : Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, and Dwight Eisenhower, followed by the generation of leaders who were troops in the war : John Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, and George H. W. Bush, were now finally leaving the center stage of American politics, or so it seemed. 10 United States Presidents in all, would now be replaced by the nations' first Baby Boomer President. Bill Clinton will win on this night. In this episode, we will hear from all the candidates for President and Vice President , but one, and we will watch as the Greatest Generation, symbolized by George Bush, gracefully leaves the stage. Then we will hear the national address from Little Rock, on the steps of the Arkansas Capitol, as Bill Clinton begins to take the reigns of power, inheriting a country that now stood alone as the leading economic and military super power on Earth. A gift left to him by the 10 Presidents and their fellow leaders of the generation of leaders who made it all possible.
