but burr is opposed by his greatest rival, alexander hamilton. g himself, hamilton wants to stop burr and deliver new york for the federalists. >> best of luck to you, colonel burr. >> and to you, general hamilton. after all, it's only politics. >> burr and hamilton, they're -- they're really kind of opposite sides of the same coin. these two guys were friends. in fact, the battle of long island, aaron burr saves alexander hamilton's life. but, of course, things would go bad once you enter politics and ambition into the situation. >> you remember the senate race 9 years ago when you defeated my father-in-law? >> well, of course i do. >> your opponent was a man of character. he served his country with honor. his ideas and principles could've benefited this nation. >> ideas and policies make for fine reading. character and honor, i'm sure, make for a fine father-in-law. but, like i said, this is politics. >> burr is unprincipled both as a public and private man. he is for or against nothing but as it suits his interests or ambition. i feel it a reli

there is a route spoken word musical about alexander hamilton.ave seen, the obamas have invited him back multiple times, and michelle has said it is the best thing since sliced bread. a few years can make a little bit of a difference. where we pick up our story is an event that we hosted about aaron burr. .ot too bad in our story there is a gentleman named brian harbison. he has a huge collection of aaron burr memorabilia. this fundraiser down at the club, and i thought i to come and lin walk around and see if it. i invite him down, and the gentleman who is the director of hamilton, his name is thomas gale, came with him. we're talking about aaron burr. we given the book. in 2012, early 2013. same time, 2013, we're opening that exhibit i mentioned about ehrenberg. we have more and burr stuff going on. he comes to the opening and sees all this amazing artwork i've camilla. ask them what is going on with this musical. he said i'm still working on it. it took him one whole year to write my shot. he is working on it, taking some time. just keep me in

at the end of the night at the musical he does shoot alexander , hamilton. oesn't change, unfortunately. there are some people in the burr camp that wanted to change, but every night he shoots hamilton. he is the antagonist. nnat being said, i think ly created a well-rounded portrait of aaron burr. he is born in newark, new jersey in 1756. so opposite to hamilton. he was born to a very famous preacher, and his mom is a kind of a transcendentalist. she is a super smart woman. she trains burr in the best of the classics in architecture and art. his parents both die, so they are both orphans. it is a very different scenario. his father did not leave. his mom wasn't supposedly a prostitute. he has this legacy already on his shoulders to protect. a lot of what the concurrent stories of hamilton and aaron burr are, are then viewing a legacy in a very different way. one needs to build a legacy, hamilton, and what needs to maintain legacy. that is seen a lot in their life historically, and also in the musical. burr marries theodosia provost in 1782. they have a daugh

more than two centuries after alexander hamilton's theatrical debut, lynn manual miranda as a hamilton bodies forth the complex racial identities of the post revolutionary and modern periods creating a kind of calculated friction between traditional representations of our white founding fathers and the men and women on stage in the richard rogers theater on broadway. scholar and playwright carlos morton describes miranda's work as a play of mixed ancestries and what morton calls hybridity in action. theater historian observes weaving a hip-hop sensibility into the fabric of the american musical tradition means threading through after coamerican musical, oral, visual and dance forms and practices. hamilton makes visible after codiasupport rick in american history in the face i've larger history, not the folks in this room that rarely recognize it. miranda's musical and his color specific not color blind casting reminds audiences that who tells your story remains the critical challenge not only in representing but representing the history of race in early america. and his hamilton invite

ironically, the tiebreaker on the 36th ballot came in part because of alexander hamilton. the kicker was hamilton and jefferson were archenemies. but hamilton decided to tell others to throw their support behind jefferson, his enemy, because at least jefferson, unlike burr, according to hamilton, was sane. of course, this adds to the feud that hamilton and burr have, which would ultimately be resolved on the jersey coast where the two of them had a duel, and aaron burr kills alexander hamilton. the vice president had killed the first secretary of the treasury. moving forward, that's the context. as a result of that election, in 1800, the 12th amendment was put in place in 1804. now with the 12th amendment, the president and vice president run on the same ticket, like we see today. and they hoped to avoid further electoral college debacles like in 1800. didn't happen. didn't take long. 1824, lightning strikes a second time. all right. that's context. our story begins in 1780, ok? with a young woman. here's a likeness of her. named rachel donnellson. her father is a rather a

today is constitution day. 229 years ago today a group of visionaries, including alexander hamilton,enjamin franklin, james madison and george washington emerged from independence hall having signed the final draft of the blueprint for our federal government. there is a vision for a new kind of government, one based on freedom, not force. our founders recognized in our country the government would operate by the consent of the governed. so to guard against arbitrary power they would be a separation of powers among three branches of government. this all sounds so simple, but in recent years we have seen in erosion of these principles. a regulatory superstate has replaced the sovereignty of the people. so-called experts in washington churn out all kinds of rules and red tape without accountability, hurting millions of americans. for example, the misguided regulation of community bank center dot frank, washington's financial control role, hurt consumers and families. that 70% of banks offer free checking. today it is down to 39%. $10 a month may not seem like much to washington bureaucr

going to come out with a very different vision of what the revolution was and should be than alexander hamilton did, and there will be a very bit politics during the 1790s try to sort out whose vision of the revolution will be triumphant, and in the shorter term, jefferson certainly triumphed in 1800, 1801, but i think that is a discussion that we are still having in our politics. as to what exactly did the founders intend and how can we best be true to that particular legacy? it was multiple -- he leg gays they gave souse we have to keep argue about it. >> they argued about if. but of course there are no great british paint little of the american revolution. there are paintings of naval victories fence the french and the care bee yap, and the def -- care bee yap and the defense of gigi brail tar but not the war in america if want to thank alan. there's going to be a recession at kenwood wipe and cheese to which i would encourage you all to taped. would also like you to let alan leave first so the can sign books for anyone who we be interested in purchasing a copy. they're available upstairs on

you think of only "alexander hamilton" number, there were duels everywhere. either way it was back to a long lover life and law school for him who pass the bar in 1883. his congressional career as a tar hill was even shorter than his time on the me. one summer afternoon robert potter castor two men. i know. one afternoon. he was certain that his wife isabel was stepping out on him, the two very different bows. one a a minister and the other teenage boy. some reports say that mrs. potter had kept her affairs all in the family, that the minister was a cousin and the boy it was the nephew of her stepmother. but, that is never been confirmed. in what is known is that powder attack both of them on the same day. it's sketchy but reports say that when potter found isabel and the reverend in a buggy together he wrote to the man of god around a snack, pulled him onto the ground, hogtied them them and then cut them down below. as for the congressman, he was remorseful but seemingly at peace with his actions. he declared, i'm consoled by the conviction that what i have

alexander hamilton blamed the rigorous and unconstitutional actions of parliament on its jealousy of our dawning splendor. henry lawrence of south carolina predicted that a mighty empire will arise on this continent, and england cannot hinder its progress. widespread acknowledgment of america's advantages, it size, climate, fertile soil, and other natural resources, as well as its rapid population growth, acted to rectify thomas payne --- thomas paine's powerful image in "common sense" of a sheer absurdity of an island ruling a continent. this was especially clear after a decade during which parliament had repeatedly restricted the growth of the north american colonies. most famously by forbidding americans to settle west of the appellations -- of the appalachians. also by numerous acts regulating colonial land policy, immigration, naturalization, and manufacturing. by july 4, 1776, enough americans wanted a separate american empire to publish it in a bill of impeachment against george the third. one only has to read the declaration of independence to understand how much americans re

an addict arnold wrote a letter and alexander hamilton, he did deliver this letter from benedict arnold to george washington and in this letter from benedict arnold he said three things from george washington. he said one, don't tell my wife. she denies a traitor. two, he said don't tell my staff, i did this myself. and three, one of the craziest moments of letter writing his area, assist in their favor, can you please send me my baggage and belongings. this guy just put a knife in the back of george washington, the most hated man since judas himself. he basically says can i have my stuff. the reason is to this day, nobody knows what was in that package that george washington said that. he sent the baggage back and nobody knows what was in that package. i did not want to read chapter 85 of the house of secrets, that you will see my and i couldn't shake that idea. for five years, over half a decade, excitedly and like i've got to figure it how to do this idea and that is where i met kyl cooper, my cowriter on this book. you have a choice. you can pick someone you think is worse than you,

gonna come out with a very different vision of what it was in should be in this consequences alexander hamilton did. there will be a very bitter politic trying to sort out whose vision of the revolution will be triumphant. and in the shorter-term jefferson certainly tramped there. but i think that's a discussion we are still having in our politics. as to what exactly did the founders intend and how can we best be true to that particular legacy. it turns out it was multiple legacies they gave us. we have to keep arguing about it. there are no great british paintings of the american revolution. there are paintings of victories against the french and the caribbean and the defense during the same timeframe of the mainly in the war in america. i want to thank alan there is can be a reception which i would encourage you all to attend i would also like you to let alan lead first so he can sign books for anyone who would be interested in purchasing a copy they are available upstairs on the balcony but please join me as he leaves the centerstage [applause]. okay. let's get started i'm a search professor
