From the Hudson Institute this is an hour and 20 minutes. A special welcome to those of you who are watching online into the viewers on cspan. I am seth cropsey. The senior fellow here at hudson.

She was born three miles east of here in the town of madison and she spent time in this area as well as in bucktown a few miles west of here.
