I always thought Phil Donahue did not like Jehovah's Witnesses. What a beautiful witness Sister Lillian Gobitas-Klose gives to Phil Donahue.  Her life story is in the Awake 7/22/1993 pages 12-17 (under Lillian Gobitas) and referenced in other publications too.  Here is the forward on the Youtube video so you can understand the importance of the interview: "On April 30, 2010, television icon Phil Donahue and Greg Peterson, co-founder of the Robert H. Jackson Center, traveled to Atlanta to meet with Lilian Gobitas-Klose. Mrs Gobitas together with her brother were the named parties in what 1940 Supreme Court case Gobitis(sp)v. Minersville (Pa.) which held that mandatory salute of the flag was constitutional. Her Jehovah Witness' beliefs prohibited the practice, and she was forced to leave her school The case was overturned by the 1943 Barnette case with majority opinion written by Justice Robert H. Jackson." Be prepared to be amazed.
