In january. Next, we look at the historical role of the Senate Majority leader and its four former leaders, robert byrd, harold baker, and we hear from Donald Richie and mitch mcconnell.

We looked at a former speaker of the house, who contacted us and say why is the president pro tem a matter of succession but not the majority leader . That is the functional equivalent. The speaker of the house is written into the constitution, to president pro tem is as well. No mention of a majority or minority leader. The constitution did not anticipate political parties. We had no majority leader in the history of the senate from 1839 to 1914. For most of the history of the senate, we did not have a majority leader.

The speaker of the house is written into the constitution, to president pro tem is as well. No mention of a majority or minority leader. The constitution did not anticipate political parties. They thought it was going to happen, but they did not want to encourage political parties. We had no majority leader in the history of the senate from 1839 1789 to 1914. For most of the history of the senate, we did not have a majority leader. There were chairmen of committees who would take care of things on the floor, and the chairman of Party Conferences that would open up and close things the way they do today. But nobody sitting down there in the Front Row Center seat trying to organize what happened on the floor on a daily basis. That changed in 1913, when Woodrow Wilson was elected president.
