62. REC. Bill Moyers is right on target with his analysis.
Regarding Zinn's "A People's History of the United States", I have to agree that some of it seemed a bit off kilter. And I did wonder about no attribution for his historical claims; however, he did provide a perspective that offers a counterweight to our uncritical and jingoistic history lessons that have been approved by people who never wanted us to look critically at the REAL history of the U.S. That has value.
