Details

Synopsis In many people's eyes, Bill Moyers is a national treasure--a thoughtful and articulate man with a heart, whose understanding of America and Americans is deep, and who has the ability to communicate that to the rest of us. Here is Moyers at his best, in his many speeches delivered to audiences across the land, on topics such as the Constitution, the presidency, religion, wealth, poverty, business, and the environment. There is a loosely unifying theme, expressed in the title, that also evokes that other insightful writer on America, Alexis deTocqueville. Moyer somehow connects each of these topics to America's foundational period as well as to our current situation.
