They should ask him his stand on the lyrics to "Goin' Back" at Princeton
This was one of the never-ending debates when I was at Princeton. After co-education, they changed the lyrics from "sons of Princeton" to "alums of Princeton." I, to be honest, was always in the pro "sons" camp, but I'd be interested to hear his stance.

I wish we didn't live in a sound-bite, gotcha age, because I would be really interested in discussing his views on the change to co-education at Princeton and his position now. It could be an interesting discussion and be a lot more insightful than whatever is going on right now.

This was THE issue of the last fifty years at one of the most important institutions in the country.

I would also like to know the Kennedy family stance on Harvard's change-over and whether Ted sings the original lyrics of "Ten Thousand Men of Harvard."
