This is so much better than our recent debacle of a debate....
Hearing Eleanor Roosevelt talking about the need to repeal the Senate filibuster to protect civil rights in 1956 is absolutely mind-blowing.
I think this was considered the first unofficial tv presidential debate. Didn't include the candidates but was definitely a debate likely used as the foundation for future debates by the candidates themselves.
Thank you, Eleanor Roosevelt, for the United Nations! 🌍🗽🌎
This was a fascinating episode from over 66 years ago. I wish there was a version of this style of show today, I mean with the decorum of the 50s. It would be interesting to watch

"... the decorum of the 50s." ?
Do you have any idea of what was happening in the United States in the 50s ?
There was no decorum in the lives of many people.
This was 60 Minutes, in the 50s with Eleanor Roosevelt !! Not the streets of America.
@@cliffgaither I meant the style of speech on the TV show
@@robertmariano :::
My bad ! Sorry ! ( I hated the history of the 50s/60s/70s/80s/90s/00s ... )
😊
@robertmariano :: I don't even know the difference between 60Minutes & Face the Nation.
You were too much of a gentlemen to point that out !
She remains one of my personal heroines
No other 1st lady ever did anywhere near to all she accomplished all on her own volition.
doreekaplan ::
She was the greatest First Lady.
Well said Doree, amazing. How are you doing!!!
I wish people spoke in 2024 like they did in 1956. Perhaps we will have an increase in grace and decorum in 2056 compared to today :)
Roosevelt was 72 at the time.
This and Meet the Press are the oldest TV shows still on the air.
It’s interesting that the women smile during their answers, especially Ms. Roosevelt, but the men do not smile.
Social conditioning to soften a woman’s opinions, I guess. Goes along with the moderator referring to a great lady in her own right as “Mrs. Franklin Delano Roosevelt”.
Some women still refer to themselves with their husband’s names, but they are almost all very old.
Eleanor Roosevelt, longest serving First Lady, whom President Truman called ‘First Lady to the World” in tribute to her record on advancing human rights.

Sen. Margaret Chase Smith, an extraordinary person who IS the Mrs. Smith who went to Washington.
