As this series has unfolded I am sure that most people have listened in and thought it was more about President Bill Clinton than Senator Bob Dole. That will begin to change with this episode. This is where we will begin to use an absolute treasure of a find from the Dole Archives collection at the Robert J. Dole School for Politics in Kansas.
In this episode we will be introducing you to these oral histories compiled by Richard Norton Smith of various major figures who served in the same era as Senator Bob Dole. I think you will get extraordinary insight not just to Bob Dole the man, and the era in which he served , but also valuable insights on how your United States Senate actually functions.
We are very excited to be diving into this collection to help tell the story of one of the greatest leaders our nation has ever produced in Senator Bob Dole. We want to thank all of those who contributed to this collection, the Dole Institute and historian Richard Norton Smith. These oral histories are an absolute treasure.
