Product Description

Product Description

What secrets have been passed down to each United States president? Why does Air Force One always appear with its left side facing the public and how much does the president know about activating the on-board flares to repel missiles? What other secrets are available to the president, and what information is so highly classified that even the commander in chief's Top Secret-3 security clearance is not enough to gain access? HISTORY™ uncovers the fascinating truths behind some of the most confidential secrets in American history in THE PRESIDENT’S BOOK OF SECRETS. Interviews with former intelligence operatives, renowned historians and archivists show how classified information is treated in the highest circles of political power, how it’s preserved throughout history, and who ensures continuity when a new leader is elected.

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting, But Somewhat Misleading July 3 2011
By S.H.
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
The title of this documentary is more hype than it is pertinent to the subject. Nonetheless, its coverage is acceptably intriguing. Features interviews with figures not often interviewed, lending some welcome perspectives.

More of a "production" than a Nova documentary, but Nova is the standard/ideal.

4.0 out of 5 stars Who has the top security clearance? Oct 24 2012
By gk - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
The simple fact that the elected 'President of the United States' doesn't have the highest security clearance is enough to draw into doubt, if not destroy, the myth that the USA has a 'representative' government.

Most people don't even know that the President has limited clearance.

The question we should all ask is: if the President is not at the highest level in government, who is?

Why aren't we allowed to even know who has the highest clearance, or what is the position of such a person and who appoints such a person?

Who decides what the President is allowed to know / have access to?

This documentary doesn't answer those important questions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Mind Blowing Info On an Interesting Subject!!!! Jun 20 2011
By Michael Byrd - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
Yo I just saw this in HD on the History Channel and could not believe what was revealed to us. I always wondered if they would come clean to us about the secrets behind the White House doors on things covering: Area 51, The Illuminati, The Budget, The Skull and Bones Club and various other secrets a president elect gets to find out about once they get in. It seems like just getting to know these things is reason enough to want to run because there are things being kept from us that would be game changers if they were officially known to the public. This program is a bold step forward sparking much convo in any arena and I hope they delve even further in the future. Please check this out. You will not be disappointed!! Peace!!
