The White House Fellowship


 
“If the sparsely settled American colonies of the late 18th century could produce Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Monroe, Madison, Hamilton, Franklin, and others of superlative talent, breadth and statesmanship, should we not be able to produce in this generation ten times that number? "


David Rockefeller, First Chairman of the President’s Commission on White House Fellowships – April 1965
