My opinion of the matter at hand, Merideth getting into Mississippi University, was for him to get in. I'm glad that he eventually did begin attending the university, because it was a step forward to segrigation and the world we have today (though that segrigation bit is still kind of working it's way still).
The fact that John F. Kennedy is supportive of Merideth, even apologizing for having to "involve the executive branch" shows that he is a good president, who fixes matters at hand, and looks beyond racism to lead the country in the right direction, to segrigation, an important goal of the time.
The source that was used, authentic audio phone taps and recordings of speeches was something I didn't expect to hear. I liked the idea of the source, but I prefer to read a document of what the president's speech or conversation was.
