What happens when a nation built on faith abandons its spiritual foundation? In this powerful exploration of America's soul, we confront the hard truth that our country's struggles—economic, cultural, and political—stem from a deeper spiritual crisis.Drawing from the prophetic warnings in the Book of Haggai, we see striking parallels to modern America: "You have planted much, but harvest little. You eat but are not satisfied. You drink but are still thirsty. Your wages disappear as though you were putting them in pockets filled with holes." These ancient words resonate with our current national condition, where material abundance coexists with spiritual emptiness.The podcast examines Ronald Reagan's prescient "Time for Choosing" speech from 1964, which warned that "freedom has never been so fragile, so close to slipping from our grasp." Decades later, these words ring truer than ever as we witness the erosion of constitutional protections and traditional values. But the solution isn't merely political—it requires rebuilding on the "rock of honesty and fairness, with the cement of faith in God."This spiritual renewal must begin personally. Have you made time for God today? Is your spouse truly your second priority after God? Our individual choices reflect our true values, and honest self-assessment is the first step toward transformation. As Barry Goldwater once advised his son: "There is no foundation like the rock of honesty and fairness, and when you begin to build your life on that rock with the cement of faith in God, then you have a real start."Turn back to God and Jesus Christ—in your personal life, your marriage, and your community. While it might be too late for our nation, remember John Quincy Adams' wisdom: "The duty is ours, the results are God's." Will you answer the call to rebuild America's spiritual foundation?Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe
Some say that Martin Van Buren was one of themost remarkable politicians—not only of his time, but in American presidential history. Co-editor of the Martin Van Buren Papers, James M. Bradley writes this new biography of the 8th president of the United States . Van Buren was the first chief executive not born a British citizen, and the first to use the party system to chart his way from tavern-keeper's son to the pinnacle of power. Additionally, he was the principal architect of the party system and one of the founders of the Democratic Party, he came to dominate New York-then the most influential state in the Union-and was instrumental in electing Andrew Jackson president. Van Buren's skills as a political strategist were unparalleled—and was coined the "Little Magician"—winning him a series of high-profile offices: US senator, New York's governor, US secretary of state, US vice president, and finally theWhite House. In his rise to power, Van Buren sought consensus and conciliation, bending to the wishes of slave interests and complicit in the dispossession of America's Indigenous population, two of the darkest chapters in American history. This first full-scale portrait charts Van Buren's ascent from a tavern in the Hudson Valley to the presidency, concluding with his late-career involvement in an antislavery movement. Offering vivid profiles of the day's leading figures including Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay, John Calhoun, John Quincy Adams, DeWitt Clinton, and James Polk, Bradley's book depicts the struggle for power in the tumultuous decadesleading up to the Civil War.About the AuthorJames M. Bradley is co-editor of the Martin Van Buren Papers, based at Cumberland University in Lebanon, Tennessee. He is an Adjunct Instructor in the public history program at State University of New York at Albany and was the Senior Project Editor of Encyclopedia of New York City,published by Yale University Press.

Theodore Roosevelt once warned that "hyphenated Americanism" represents "moral treason to the republic." In this soul-stirring episode, we explore how this century-old warning speaks directly to our modern crisis of divided loyalties and fractured identities.Do you approach your faith with the same intentional planning you bring to other important areas of life? Most successful people don't simply wake up and "see what happens" - they have detailed plans and disciplined routines. Yet when it comes to our spiritual lives, we often take a casual, unstructured approach. Drawing from both Scripture and historical wisdom, we examine how creating intentional habits around prayer, Bible study, and spiritual reflection can transform our relationship with God.The heart of this episode centers on the complete forgiveness offered through Christ. Reading from Colossians 2, we discover the liberating truth that Christ has "canceled out the certificate of debt" and "nailed it to the cross." Through a vulnerable personal story about a pastor who repeatedly responded to altar calls because he couldn't believe his past was truly forgiven, we confront the struggle many Christians face in accepting the completeness of God's grace.Roosevelt's powerful 1916 speech provides a framework for examining how our various identities - political, denominational, cultural - can sometimes undermine our primary commitments to Christ and country. When we place any identity above our identity in Christ or allow group loyalties to override our commitment to America's founding principles, we engage in a form of moral treason that weakens both our faith and our nation.This episode challenges you to examine where your primary loyalties lie and to embrace John Quincy Adams' wisdom: "Duty is ours, results are God's." By measuring your spiritual growth against your own past rather than comparing yourself to others, you can focus on steady progress in your relationship with Christ rather than perfectionism or spiritual competition.Join us for this thought-provoking exploration of faith, identity, and national purpose that will leave you reconsidering how you approach both your spiritual journey and your role as an American citizen.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe
There's an old saying: “A picture is worth a thousand words.” By that count, artist Peter Waddell is a masterful storyteller. Beginning in 2004, the White House Historical Association commissioned the artist to create well-researched paintings to represent different periods from White House history that were not drawn, painted, or photographed definitively in their own times. The result is a collection of over a dozen pieces of artwork that capture lesser known moments of presidential life at the White House. Stewart McLaurin, President of the White House Historical Association, spoke with Peter about how these moments were chosen, the meticulous research that went into these paintings, and how Peter is able to create works that transport viewers and students to another time and another place in American history. Stewart and Peter discuss three of his extraordinary paintings that are part of the White House Historical Association's collection: A Vision Takes Form, 1796 about the construction of the White House; Tiber Creek: The Bathers which depicts a moment when President John Quincy Adams escaped a leaking boat; and First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy at Malmaison, 1961 which shows Mrs. Kennedy visiting the home of Empress Josephine of France. The Empress's silk draped bed chamber appears to have inspired the redesign and decoration of the Blue Room at the White House during the Kennedy administration. You can view Peter Waddell's paintings for the White House Historical Association here.

In this episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts U-Arkansas Prof. Albert Cheng and Alisha Searcy interview historian Marcus Rediker, Distinguished Professor of Atlantic History at the University of Pittsburgh and author of The Amistad Rebellion. Prof. Rediker explores the 1839 slave revolt aboard the schooner La Amistad. He recounts the leadership of Sengbe Pieh (Joseph Cinqué) and the wider history and human toll of the transatlantic slave trade. Prof. Rediker details the Amistad Africans' journey from Sierra Leone to Havana's barracoons, their rebellion at sea, and their capture off Long Island. He examines the legal battle, from their defense by abolitionists to American statesman John Quincy Adams' stirring legal argument before the U.S. Supreme Court, which helped secure their freedom. Prof. Rediker highlights the Amistad SCOTUS case's impact on the abolitionist movement and the fate of Cinqué and his comrades upon returning to West Africa.

fWotD Episode 2817: Andrew Jackson Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Monday, 20 January 2025 is Andrew Jackson.Andrew Jackson (March 15, 1767 – June 8, 1845) was the seventh president of the United States, serving from 1829 to 1837. Before his presidency, he gained fame as a general in the U. S. Army and served in both houses of the U. S. Congress. Sometimes praised as an advocate for working Americans and for preserving the union of states, his political philosophy became the basis for the Democratic Party. Jackson has been criticized for his racist policies, particularly regarding Native Americans.Jackson was born in the colonial Carolinas before the American Revolutionary War. He became a frontier lawyer and married Rachel Donelson Robards. He briefly served in the U. S. House of Representatives and the U. S. Senate, representing Tennessee. After resigning, he served as a justice on the Tennessee Superior Court from 1798 until 1804. Jackson purchased a property later known as the Hermitage, becoming a wealthy planter who owned hundreds of African American slaves during his lifetime. In 1801, he was appointed colonel of the Tennessee militia and was elected its commander. He led troops during the Creek War of 1813–1814, winning the Battle of Horseshoe Bend and negotiating the Treaty of Fort Jackson that required the indigenous Creek population to surrender vast tracts of present-day Alabama and Georgia. In the concurrent war against the British, Jackson's victory at the Battle of New Orleans in 1815 made him a national hero. He later commanded U. S. forces in the First Seminole War, which led to the annexation of Florida from Spain. Jackson briefly served as Florida's first territorial governor before returning to the Senate. He ran for president in 1824. He won a plurality of the popular and electoral vote, but no candidate won the electoral majority. With the help of Henry Clay, the House of Representatives elected John Quincy Adams as president. Jackson's supporters alleged that there was a "corrupt bargain" between Adams and Clay and began creating a new political coalition that became the Democratic Party in the 1830s.Jackson ran again in 1828, defeating Adams in a landslide despite issues such as his slave trading and his "irregular" marriage. In 1830, he signed the Indian Removal Act. This act, which has been described as ethnic cleansing, displaced tens of thousands of Native Americans from their ancestral homelands east of the Mississippi and resulted in thousands of deaths. Jackson faced a challenge to the integrity of the federal union when South Carolina threatened to nullify a high protective tariff set by the federal government. He threatened the use of military force to enforce the tariff, but the crisis was defused when it was amended. In 1832, he vetoed a bill by Congress to reauthorize the Second Bank of the United States, arguing that it was a corrupt institution. After a lengthy struggle, the Bank was dismantled. In 1835, Jackson became the only president to pay off the national debt. After leaving office, Jackson supported the presidencies of Martin Van Buren and James K. Polk, as well as the annexation of Texas. Jackson's legacy remains controversial, and opinions on his legacy are frequently polarized. Supporters characterize him as a defender of democracy and the U. S. Constitution, while critics point to his reputation as a demagogue who ignored the law when it suited him. Scholarly rankings of U. S. presidents historically rated Jackson's presidency as above average. Since the late 20th century, his reputation declined, and in the 21st century his placement in rankings of presidents fell.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:53 UTC on Monday, 20 January 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Andrew Jackson on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm long-form Patrick.
Can a true understanding of marriage and nationhood be found in scripture? Join me, Jesse Cope, as I make a bold statement: redefining marriage and ignoring America's Christian roots may have led us astray. Through reflection on biblical passages like Titus 2, 1 Corinthians 7, Ephesians 5, and 1 Peter 3, I challenge you to scrutinize whether your relationships adhere to these profound teachings. Legal and societal definitions often fall short, even within the church, when compared to the scriptural foundation that defines a true marriage. This episode encourages a personal examination and integration of biblical principles into your daily life and relationships.Furthermore, we take a thoughtful journey through America's past, guided by the wisdom of historical figures like William Strong and John Adams. Is the Bible merely a book, or is it the guiding light akin to a lighthouse for a nation? Together, we'll unravel the essence of America's Christian origins and the intent behind the First Amendment—not as a tool for exclusion but as a means to ensure equality among Christian denominations. Let's address the divisions within Christianity and advocate for unity in Christ's teachings above all else. As you listen, consider how these reflections resonate within your life and the broader community.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

On Friday, A'ndre chatted with Dr. Lindsay Chervinsky, a presidential historian and Executive Director of the George Washington Presidential Library, to explore President Jimmy Carter's presidential and post-presidential foreign policy legacy following his passing at age 100. The discussion began by addressing public reactions to Carter's death and why the dichotomy of a “failed presidency but outstanding post-presidency” is misleading. Dr. Chervinsky highlighted Carter's foreign policy achievements, including the Camp David Accords, normalization of relations with China, handling of the Cold War, and the Panama Canal Treaty, as well as Carter's difficulties in dealing with the Iranian Hostage Crisis and inflation.They examined Carter's presidency in the context of the geopolitical landscape of the late 1970s and his approach to diplomacy, contrasting his administration with the subsequent Reagan era. The conversation also touched on Carter's post-presidential influence on foreign policy through the Carter Center and drew parallels between his legacy redefinition and that of John Quincy Adams.
This week on The Learning Curve, co-hosts Alisha Searcy of DFER and U-Arkansas Prof. Albert Cheng interview Leo Damrosch, the Ernest Bernbaum Professor of Literature Emeritus at Harvard University and author of Tocqueville's Discovery of America. Prof. Damrosch delves into Alexis de Tocqueville's historic nine-month journey through the United States in 1831–1832, which inspired his masterpiece, Democracy in America. He explores Tocqueville's observations on American democracy, civic individualism, materialism, and the rule of law, contrasting them with European political institutions. Prof. Damrosch highlights Tocqueville's impressions of influential political figures like Andrew Jackson and John Quincy Adams, his prescient views on slavery's moral and political impact, and his critiques of American materialism and inequality. He also sheds light on Tocqueville's insights into education's role in fostering self-government and democracy, as well as his enduring legacy as a thinker whose analysis of democracy resonates across political divides. Throughout the interview Damrosch offers his profound understanding of Tocqueville's relevance to contemporary debates on equality, governance, and democratic ideals. In closing, he reads a passage from Tocqueville's writings.
In het jaar dat nu voor ons staat zal veel gebeuren. Veel verrassends, veel onbegrijpelijks en veel dat je wel kon zien aankomen of waar we op konden hopen. In Betrouwbare Bronnen bekijken Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger elk jaar welke vroegere momenten en mensen ons juist in het nieuwe jaar kunnen inspireren; tot nadenken stemmen, verbazen en een spiegel voorhouden.***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken.

De complete tekst plus linkjes en een overzicht van al onze eerdere afleveringen vind je hier***1} AmerikaEen nieuwe president wordt ingezworen en het is een oude, in alle betekenissen van het woord. In de Amerikaanse geschiedenis werd precies 200 jaar geleden een heel ander mens ingehuldigd als president. De zoon van een eerdere president bovendien. John Quincy Adams was een Uomo Universale en bekleedde vele politieke en diplomatiek posten.Hij begon als scholier in Amsterdam en student in Leiden als de secretaris van zijn vader, ambassadeur John Adams. Als tiener was hij dus al op het hoogste niveau actief voor de nieuwe, rebelse republiek van de Britse onderdanen in opstand. In 1825 werd hij hun zesde president.Die republiek viert nu zijn 250ste verjaardag en ook in 2025 gaan we in Betrouwbare Bronnen door met het uitdiepen van dat jubileum. Op 19 april 1775 begon het conflict uit de hand te lopen. Britse troepen vielen de guerilleros aan rond de stad Boston – die van de eerdere Tea Party actie - en liepen een lelijk blauw oog op.In Concord en op Lexington Green werd gevochten en de troepen van George III vluchtten terug naar de stad. “By the rude bridge that arched the flood/Their flag to April's breeze unfurled/Here once the embattled farmers stood/And fired the shot heard round the world.” En de victorieuze rebellen zongen uit volle borst 'Yankee Doodle Dandy'!2] LeidenDe oudste universiteit van Nederland viert op 8 februari haar 450e verjaardag. Deze academie, het Praesidium Libertatis, was een geschenk van Willem van Oranje als dank voor de moed van de burgers tijdens de belegering door de Spaanse troepen.Het werd het trainingscentrum van het calvinisme en van burgerlijke bestuurders die de nieuwe Republiek hun gezicht en hun vernuft schonken. Het werd ook een wereldwijd uniek kenniscentrum van de andere culturen, talen en religies 'van het Boek'. Hoe afbraak daar nu het parool is, is niet minder dan een cultureel schandaal.Leiden trok talent vanuit heel de wereld. Snouck ontving prins Saud uit Mekka. Minister Wim Deetman de sjeik van Qatar. Ehrenfest zijn grote vriend Einstein wiens wasbak bewaard bleef! En de historische vulpen die de natuurkunde en onze blik op het universum fundamenteel veranderde. PG vertelt over zijn leermeester professor Jan Heesterman, wiens diepe kennis en liefde voor India en andere Aziatische culturen nu nog doorleeft.3] AmsterdamDe Leidse academie verbindt zich op een wel heel aparte wijze met de hoofdstad en de klassieke muziek in de persoon van Gustav Mahler. Wie Amsterdam zegt, zegt het Concertgebouw en zegt Mahler. 2025 is er opnieuw een groot festival met al diens werken, uitgevoerd door een reeks toporkesten, dirigenten en solisten.Niets kan beter de 750e verjaardag van deze stad luister bijzetten. Jaap en PG stippen vrouwen en mannen aan die Amsterdam kleur gaven; wereldfaam en politieke en morele kwaliteit. Van Aletta Jacobs tot Johan van Hulst. En laten we blij zijn dat wethouder Joop den Uyl zijn 'grootste verbouwing ooit' toch niet voor elkaar kreeg!4] Thomas MannEen vriend van Einstein en vele andere grote geesten in Leiden en Amsterdam als Sigmund Freud en Richard Strauss wordt dit jaar wereldwijd geëerd. Thomas Mann werd 150 jaar geleden geboren en sprak 75 jaar geleden zijn grote rede 'Meine Zeit' uit. Dat gebeurde in Chicago en waarom dat is, heeft nota bene een verbinding met ons land en oud-premier Ruud Lubbers.5] RuslandRusland staat stil bij de berinnering aan het aantreden van twee grote heersers. En zal sidderen. 31 december 1999 trad Boris Jeltsin af en wees Vladimir Poetin aan als zijn opvolger. We konden toen al vijf jaar weten waar deze KGB-officier politiek stond. Een artikel in een Duitse krant over een documentaire van de WDR-omroep liet daar geen misverstand over bestaan. En een stukje uit die docu hebben we! Je hoort Poetin Duits spreken.(Hier kun je de hele documentaire zien)Ongetwijfeld zal Poetin dit jaar zélf stil staan bij de troonsbestijging van zijn rolmodel uit de Tsarendynastie. Nicolaas I volgde op 1 december 1825 zijn plots gestorven broer Alexander 'Sasha' op. Met hem begonnen decennia van repressie, afsluiting van het Westen en vervolging van 'andersdenkenden'.6] EuropaPolen zit de EU voor en dat is in 2025 van grote symbolische betekenis. Op 27 januari komt de wereld daar bijeen om de bevrijding van het vernietigingskamp Auschwitz in 1945 te gedenken. Actueler dan ooit nu Syrië bevrijd is en de gruwelen daar aan het licht komen.Maar 2025 kent ook reden tot vreugde en trots voor de Polen. Want op 9 december vieren zij hoe in 1990 hun eerste democratisch gekozen president na de 'Mauerfall' aantrad. Dat was toen al een icoon van moedig verzet en onwrikbaar geloof, de vakbondsman Lech Walesa. Zijn campagneslogan zei het al: “Ik wil het niet, maar het moet.”Twee groten van de Europese geschiedenis worden dit jaar geëerd bij hun 100e verjaardag. Margaret Thatcher en Jacques Delors. Tegenpolen, dat zeker, maar mensen met groot respect voor elkaar. "He is the cleverest man in Europe!" Daar kunnen we in onze tijd misschien wel wat van leren dus.En 2025 wordt hopelijk ook politiek hun jaar. Met een nieuwe toenadering binnen de NAVO en met de EU van de Britten en met een even gedurfd als visionair redesign van de EU door Delors' leerlingen Ursula en Mario.7] Geen opera?Toch wel. Want in 1625 werd de alleroudste opera door een vrouw gecomponeerd in Florence opgevoerd. Een verhaal uit een geliefde ridderroman werd met veel spektakel ten tonele gebracht door de Medici-familie ter gelegenheid van de ontvangst van kroonprins Wladyslaw van Polen!Maar vanwege Leiden en Amsterdam luiden we het jaar in met Gustav Mahler. Met zijn meest intieme liefdeslied voor zijn grillige, veeleisende vrouw Alma.Gelukkig Nieuwjaar en alle goeds in 2025!***Verder luisteren392 - 2024: triomf en tragedie in historie en actualiteit138 - In het voetspoor van Amerikaanse Presidenten in Nederland (oa de jonge John Quincy Adams)382 - 250 jaar Verenigde Staten: de Boston Tea Party en de rechtsbescherming van belastingbetalers in Nederland115 - Thomas Paine en De Rechten van de mens - filosoof van de Amerikaanse revolutie262 - Waarom India - ook voor Nederland - steeds belangrijker wordt325 - De mythe van Joop den Uyl; het spookbeeld van Mark Rutte161 - Hans van Mierlo, een politieke popster346 - Alle Menschen werden Brüder!404 - 75 jaar NAVO: in 1949 veranderde de internationale positie van Nederland voorgoed (oa over Thomas Mann)21 - Poetins rolmodel tsaar Nicolaas I19 - Anne Applebaum over Oekraïne, Poetin en Nicolaas I468 – Polen brengt nieuwe dynamiek in Europa105 - 75 jaar bevrijding: Dagelijks leven in Nazi-Duitsland - Viktor Klemperer wist in 1942 al van Auschwitz336 - Timothy Garton Ash: Hoe Europa zichzelf voor de derde keer opnieuw uitvindt (oa over Lech Walesa)124 - 95 jaar Jacques Delors30 - Delors en Thatcher303 - Bijzondere Britse premiers446 - Doe wat Draghi zegt of Europa wacht een langzame doodsstrijd***Tijdlijn00:00:00 – Deel 100:35:55 – Deel 200:58:21 – Deel 301:33:50 – Einde Zie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Join Host Lyle Perez for a chilling finale to the Haunted America series as he explores the haunted history of Washington, D.C., on Halloween night. As the center of political power, the nation's capital holds layers of dark secrets, historic tragedies, and spectral presences. From the halls of the White House to the eerie streets of Lafayette Square, D.C. is alive with ghostly tales that reveal a side of history rarely discussed. Grab a warm drink, dim the lights, and get ready for a journey into the capital's haunted sites. Featured Locations: The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, D.C. 20500 Home to more than just presidents, the White House hosts famous spirits like Abraham Lincoln, who's been seen by countless staff and guests. Queen Wilhelmina even fainted upon seeing his apparition. Dolley Madison is rumored to protect the Rose Garden, while Abigail Adams' ghost has been seen in the East Room. Public tours offer a glimpse into the residence, though ghostly encounters are never guaranteed. The Octagon House 1799 New York Ave NW, Washington, D.C. 20006 This unique mansion, built in 1801, is haunted by the spirits of two Tayloe daughters who fell to their deaths in the staircase. Visitors report hearing footsteps, doors slamming, and feeling watched, especially in the ballroom. The house is open as a museum, inviting visitors to learn about its tragic history. The Capitol Building First St SE, Washington, D.C. 20004 The U.S. Capitol is haunted by the mysterious “Demon Cat,” a ghostly omen of disaster, and by John Quincy Adams, who collapsed and died in the building. Cold spots, whispers, and eerie figures are common, particularly in the rotunda. Guided tours provide access to this historical—and haunted—monument. Lafayette Square Across from the White House, Lafayette Square's dark past is marked by murder and scandal. The ghost of Philip Barton Key II, murdered by Congressman Daniel Sickles, is said to roam here. Shadowy figures and phantom gunshots disturb this otherwise serene park, making it a must-visit for thrill-seekers. The Old Stone House 3051 M St NW, Washington, D.C. 20007 Dating back to 1765, the Old Stone House is D.C.'s oldest unchanged structure. It's haunted by “George,” a spectral carpenter, and a child who tugs at visitors' clothing. Guests report feeling cold hands and hearing whispers, adding to its allure as a museum with deep-rooted mysteries. The National Theatre 1321 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, D.C. 20004 Known as “The Theatre of Presidents,” the National Theatre is haunted by the “Lady in White,” seen backstage and in the audience. Disembodied laughter and footsteps heighten its ghostly charm. Patrons attending performances may find themselves in the presence of D.C.'s most dedicated spectral audience.

Voting is a Duty. To use the words of early president John Quincy Adams, "duty is ours, results are God's". Not voting in a U.S. election would be to shirk our duty and let our fellow Americans down. There is no patriotic way to sit on the sidelines and not vote in an election. If you are a citizen of the united states, you have a duty to discharge. Listen to this before the polls close. Voting is a duty.

Learn how the mode of selecting the President was the result of a hard fought and contentious Constitutional Convention debate, resulting in the adoption of Article II, Section 1 of the United States Constitution. Review that the idea of a popular, nationwide election was rejected because, among other things, there were serious concerns that the public would not have sufficient information, and the public would be swayed by bias to local candidates, passion, and celebrity. Understand that the idea of a Congressional election of the President was rejected because, among other things, of grave concerns about the independence of the President, as well as formation of cabals and corruption. The electoral college was intended to mediate the passions of the people as well as the dangers of elections by Congress by creating an independent body, whose sole function was to select the best candidate. Review how electors are chosen is determined by the Legislature of each state. Each State has the number of electors equal to the number of representatives in the House of Representatives and Senators. Learn the mistakes the Founding Fathers made in connection with the Presidential Election (for example, having the runner-up become Vice President) - and how paralyzed the nation during the election of 1800. The President and Vice President now run as a slate, and electors cast one vote for each. A person receiving an outright majority of electors becomes President and Vice President respectively. Otherwise, the House of Representatives chooses the President, selecting from the top three vote getters. Each State has one vote, chosen by a majority of its representatives. A similar process works for the Vice President, but he or she is chosen by the Senate out of the top two vote getters. Originally, most electors were chosen directly by the legislatures of the States. Over time, States determined to select their electors by popular election, with 48 of the 50 States choosing a winner takes all system.

From George Washington's powdered pigtail to John Quincy Adams' bushy side-whiskers and from James Polk's masterful mullet to John F. Kennedy's refined Ivy League coif, the tresses of American leaders have long conveyed important political and symbolic messages.There are surprising, and multi-dimensional ways that hair has influenced the personalities, public and private lives, personal scandals, and tragedies of the men and women who have occupied the White House and influenced the nation at large.To explore this unconventional aspect of American history is today's guest, Ted Pappas, author of “Combing Through the White House: Hair and Its Shocking Impact on the Politics, Private Lives, and Legacies of the Presidents.”
