And newspaper reports of the early republic has been regarded by historians as a form of capitol dmen tear and not the least because theyre quite colorful. Men and women reported back home on what dolly wore, served, how she moved, and how she treated people. But, we have to look at these descriptions not just as mere celebrity mentions. The people who regarded dolly so minutely, whether members of the ruling elite or ordinary americans and europeans invested in the republican experiment, what they were looking for and how she looked and how she behaved, they were looking for signs and clues about the madisons themselves, maybe a specific political event, especially the declaration of war. And even for the fate of the republic. Some theres a lot at stake in these descriptions. After the American Revolution at a time of flux and change with very few real political structures in place. These new americans focussed on the persons of their leaders and the number one person they subjected t

And picking a new fled 39 days. Should a man who tweets about sex tapes at 5 00 in the morning be trusted with the nuclear code . Question two, related to question one. Momentum from the first debate. Is this tough tone for campaign rallies, or will donald trump bring it to the debate rematch . The American People have had it with years and decades of clinton corruption and scandals. Corruption and scandals. And impeachment for lying. Impeachment for lying. Remember that . Impeach. The clintons are the sordid past. We will be the very bright and clean future. And question three, will millennials be swayed by Hillary Clintons appeal to think again salve porting the libertarian or green party candidates. I think either donald trump or i will be the president of the United States. And so people have to
Criminal . Should we ignore the lessons of hisy in our relationship with Vladimir Putin. Do you think the russians were behind hacking into our election . Finally, the future of political messaging.

It was nearly 42 years ago to the day that president jared ford bluntly told the nation this. I must say to you at the state of the union is not good. Folks with just seven days until this inauguration, you could argue that american democracy and American Leadership are facing a crisis of confidence. The likes of which we havent seen in a very long time. Democrats have aggressively gone after trump. Theyve aired their grievances about policy, templement and the election process. It was clear that questioning the legitimacy of the office of the presidency was a line they would not cross. Until now
Regulation, he wants to cut taxes, hes going to bring the jobs back.
