Rebroadcast: Who in the World Was Hannibal Hamlin? | Episode #132 | Election College: United States Presidential Election History

Tue, 17 Oct 2017 04:00:00 -0000

No conversation about Abraham Lincoln would be complete without talking about Hannibal Hamlin!

______

Unless you’re from Maine, you probably didn’t hear too much in your history class about Abraham Lincoln’s first Vice President. Hannibal Hamlin came from a distinguished New England family and stood firm against the expansion of slavery in the territories. It only made sense for a Midwestern Republican like Lincoln to join forces with a New Englander (after all, the Republicans weren’t going to get very much support from the South in 1860). And, what caused him not to serve as Lincoln’s running mate four years later?

So, why don’t we hear very much about Hamlin? After all, he only missed the Presidency by a few weeks.

In this episode we discuss:

*Hamlin’s New England Upbringing

*His Kids Were Cousins (Yeah, it’s totally legit, too)

*His Role in Maine Politics

*The Example He Sought to Set by Going to War While He Was Vice President

Rebroadcast: Stephen Douglas - The Early Years (Part 1) | Episode #127 | Election College: United States Presidential Election History

Tue, 03 Oct 2017 05:13:33 -0000

We're talking about Lincoln, and you can't talk about Lincoln without talking about Douglas! Check out this episode leading up to the Lincoln Douglas debates.

The Douglas/Lincoln debates are some of the most famous debates in all of American history! But before he debated Lincoln, Stephen Douglas had built quite the resume on his own.

A semi-national leader for the Democrats as a Senator and statesmen, Stephen Douglas is a truly interesting character in our past. He was a wealthy landowner and was hugely influential on many fronts.

Martha Jefferson and Martha Jefferson Randolph | Episode #212 | Election College: United States Presidential Election History

Thu, 27 Jul 2017 10:47:47 -0000

Ever think to yourself, "I'd really like to hear an episode all about how two women married their third cousins and were also closely related to the President of the United States?" We've got just the episode for you!

Martha and Martha were never quite First Ladies of the United States, but we figure they get an honorable mention since one was the wife of a President and the other acted as a First Lady at times.

Andrew Jackson - "Stop Thinking and Go In" (His Life - Part 2) | Episode #134 | Election College: United States Presidential Election History

Thu, 20 Oct 2016 04:00:00 -0000

In this episode we talk about the life of Andrew Johnson from his first run for President in 1824 and on to his time in the White House in 1828.

Andrew Jackson makes a run for the Presidency in 1824, gets the most popular votes, but not a majority. So, the House of Representatives votes in John Quincy Adams (with a little help from Henry Clay). The next three-and-a-half years, Andy Jack sets his sight on winning.

He does win in 1828–big time. But not without a cost. During the campaign his wife, Rachel, was accused of bigamy. She had been previously been married and it was later found out that her divorce had not yet been finalized when she married Jackson.

Jackson claimed that the stress from the campaign caused her death soon after the election (and before his inauguration). The president-elect blamed Henry Clay and the Adams campaign for her demise. He was quoted as saying, "I can and do forgive all my enemies. But those vile wretches who have slandered her must look to God for mercy."

We also discuss the mixed legacy of Andrew Johnson . . .

*The Trail of Tears

*His view of a national bank

*His government reforms

John Quincy Adams Has Been Everywhere (His Life - Part 1) | Episode #130 | Election College: United States Presidential Election History

Thu, 06 Oct 2016 04:00:00 -0000

John Quincy Adams was quite the guy. Before he was President, he traveled all over Europe–he had the ultimate homeschool experience.

By the time he was 20, Q knew several languages, had translated the New Testament, and had a prolific blog (well, he had a diary).

While he might have wished to stay home, his dad - John Adam - encouraged him to take his experience on the road. George Washington appointed him as Minister to the Netherlands at the age of 26.

Q served as James Monroe's Secretary of State and wrote the document that we now know as the Monroe Doctrine.

All that to say . . .If there was a Foreign Affairs All Star team from the early 1800s, The Q would be batting clean-up.

James Monroe - Part 2 | Episode #125 | Election College: United States Presidential Election History

Thu, 22 Sep 2016 04:00:00 -0000

James Monroe is one of the only guys in history who was able to win two elections in a row with almost no competition at all. He even ran completely unopposed in his second attempt!

Monroe not only persevered through a tough time in our history during the War of 1812 - he did it with one of the most bipartisan cabinets ever! While we don't agree with all of his policies and beliefs, you can't deny that Monroe had a wonderful effect on the United States of America.

Tue, 20 Sep 2016 06:11:23 -0000

James Monroe is an easy president to miss. He's not a super controversial figure, but he's also not a guy who just lets people walk all over him.

Ambassador to France, Secretary of State, Secretary of War, Delegate to the Virginia House, United States Senator and Governor of Virginia are just a few of Monroe's many job titles that we discuss in this episode!

The Bill of Rights - The Backstory | Episode #122 | Election College: United States Presidential Election History

Tue, 13 Sep 2016 06:31:37 -0000

Way back before the Bill of Rights was even written, the writers of the Constitution knew there was going to be one! These 10 Amendments to our governing document lead the way through troubled times and precarious situations on a regular basis.

However, we don't go very deep in to what the actual amendments within the Bill of Rights entail during this episode. That's next time. Instead, we talk about the history of, necessity for, and influencers behind the nation's 10 most popular amendments.

James Madison - Part 1 | Episode #120 | Election College: United States Presidential Election History

Tue, 06 Sep 2016 06:28:35 -0000

James Madison is often overlooked - and no, that's not a short joke. You may know him as our fourth president, but Madison accomplished a tremendous amount of good for the well-being of our new country here in the USA aside from the office of the presidency. From being the Father of the Constitution and Bill of Rights to being an influential delegate in foreign affairs, we think James Madison deserves his very own episode.

The Alien and Sedition Acts | Episode #118 | Election College: United States Presidential Election History

Tue, 30 Aug 2016 05:23:47 -0000

The Alien and Sedition Acts are something we've talked all around but never dove into! Some people might think it's just one big law. Instead, it's four different laws combined into a type of government approved speech suppression with a side of nationalism thrown in. If you're in the mood for a good head scratcher, this is the episode for you!

The Vice President | Episode #117 | Election College: United States Presidential Election History

Thu, 25 Aug 2016 04:00:00 -0000

Often mocked, but immensely valuable, is the office of the Vice President. It's true, the biggest job of the VP may be being the President of the Senate (which is essentially just breaking ties) but the VP is a super important position with a very interesting past.

Tue, 23 Aug 2016 04:00:00 -0000

______________________________

I reference another podcast about a relatively unknown guy who signed the Declaration. It's Radiolab and episode is Buttons Not Buttons.

The Curious Case of Daniel Sickles | Episode #113 | Election College: United States Presidential Election History

Thu, 11 Aug 2016 04:00:00 -0000

_____________________________

Daniel Sickles was really influential in American History, and there's a pretty good chance you've never even heard of him. We hadn't even heard of him until just recently and we thought he was pretty interesting.

He shot Francis Scott Key's son. He should have been court-martialed. He disobeyed direct military orders. He kept his severed leg preserved. He served in public office. And he also convinced the USA to preserve Gettysburg.

What an interesting guy...

Thu, 28 Jul 2016 04:30:50 -0000

Horace Greeley was a major influencer in the political scene of the late 1800s. However, most of us have never even heard of him!

We kept seeing his name pop up and figured it was probably time to investigate him. Plus, he has an insane amount of neck and bear hair and we can't really determine which one is which...

Alexander Hamilton is one of our favorite guys to talk about... mostly because we've been calling him 'The Wizard of Oz' for about a year!

However, we thought it was about time we call him by his real name and give him the episode he deserves... plus we can't get this dang musical about him out of our head!

Come along with us as we talk about the one guy who arguably had the most influence in presidential elections while never running in one!
