With doubtless faults...racial discrimination, the Cold War, the horrible(STILL not solved IMHO) JFK assassination, and others too I admit. But there was a lot RIGHT about those years too. Congress able to form a consensus and move our country ahead, a national debt at about one(1) trillion dollars, and most Americans willing and able to WORK for their goals instead of reaching in other peoples' pockets. What a time indeed....

0:40 Apparently it's never been 'The Today Show' anymore. It's ALWAYS been known simply as 'Today'. I, for one, DEFINITELY remember the full title, obviously the narrator agrees. Mandela Effect.

I was 4 and allowed to cross the street to find friends. I found the Lahti family and there were 6 kids‼️ Stayed friends until we all moved away as young adults. I got to use my sister's little record player. Burl Ives songs. I stayed with my grandmother up North. It was my first plane ride. It was a small mail plane and I got to sit on the copilot's lap. She taught me to write my real name not my nickname Cissy. I She took me to get friends and one had candy ‼️ One called me Sunshine because I was always smiling. I missed my Mom💕🙏✌️ 8:03 8:03

The horror…looking at people in “iron lungs” is terrifying. If you suffer from any degree of claustrophobia but you must remain in the device in order to breathe is the worse situation imaginable. And so many victims.

In present day value, that's $23K for a family of 5. (See how far the $ has depreciated in purchasing value.)

You left out a very significant event and accomplishment that occurred July 3, 1952, the launch of the American oceanliner SS United States. She was the subject of national pride. Captured the Blue Ribband back for the US breaking the Atlantic crossing speed record. She is still the faster ship in the world, largest American liner ever built, was the equivalent of the space shuttle in 1952, Hollywood celebrities and four presidents traveled on her. Today the SS United States remains docked in Philadelphia. How did you overlook this in your timeline? Anyone interested in helping save and restore this now neglected artifact of American genius, contact the SS United States Conservancy....ASAP!
