In March of 1959, Charles Van Doren was a name that stirred deep emotions in the people of America.
Van Doren was a likeable young man who had made the cover of TIME magazine as the star of something relatively new in American culture — a television quiz show.
Charlie came from a distinguished family. He was the son of Mark Van Doren, a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, and nephew of Carl Van Doren, a great historian. Charles Van Doren himself was an outstanding academic, having studied at the Sorbonne and at Columbia. He became a professor of English.
He's been a laughing stock, called a habitual liar, a bullish artist, a crooked businessman, insincere politician, empty suit and fake personality, and now candidate for the Republican nomination for President of the US?
