Thanks for being with us on cspan3s American History tv and let me begin with that question. Who was redoshi .

And i want to just take a minute to thank you all for your patience, given the vagaries of senate vote timing, its thought that president buchanan was the first to call the senate the worlds most deliberative body to better understand characterization.
