Former White House hopeful to speak at summer school

Tánaiste Frances Fitzgerald and Garda Commissioner Noirín O’Sullivan will be joined by one-time US presidential hopeful Martin O’Malley and Bernie Sanders strategist Tadd Devine on a heavy-hitting schedule for this year’s Kennedy Summer School.

Taking place in New Ross, Co Wexford, from September 8-10, the summer school will include more than 30 guest speakers from the worlds of politics, the media, and entertainment, with the forthcoming US presidential election set to feature prominently.

The theme is ‘A festival of Irish and American history, politics, and culture’, and is run in association with the John F Kennedy Trust New Ross and Wexford County Council.
