"Lame ducks" and the tradition of presidential transitions

It's a harmless, almost funny-sounding term to describe the two-and-a-half-month stretch between the general election and an outgoing president's departure: "Lame duck."

The lame duck label migrated to American politics; it was used to describe outgoing President Calvin Coolidge. But as Goodwin points out, a lame duck still has wings. Kevin Lamarque/ReutersThis presidential transition period has been bereft of all these rituals.

"You're teaching a course on world religions, but are you also kind of secretly teaching about kindness?" McIntyre is just one crusader of kindness featured in a new documentary, "The Antidote," on Amazon Prime. Asked to define kindness, De'amon Harges, a community organizer with Indianapolis' Broadway United Methodist Church, said, "The first real cornerstone is love thy neighbor." Rocca said, "I think a lot of the time when people hear the word 'kindness,' it's lost a lot of its power. Just saying hello to somebody, rather than ignoring them, is really, really powerful."
