the system we know of from federalists and anti-federal lists with people like john adams and thomas jefferson and james madison and so on, and the second party system had yesterday to be created with people like andrew jackson and henry clay and those guys and eventually abraham lincoln. this was a moment of transition. no one knew what was going to happen. the country was approaching its 50th anniversary, and that was something of an achievement because everyone knew america was an experiment. that's the word that was often used. would the experiment work? would we make it to 1826? and that also meant would the values of the founding fathers continue on in the new generation. so, there was a lot of concern about that, even regardless of the sectionalism just were we continuing the story that we had started in 1776. so, monroe invited lafayette under those circumstances. that he was the figure of unity. he was a living and some scholars had usually use this term, relic of american revolution. as the positive things. not that he was decrepit, but he was a living reminder, walking reminder -- he was only

who will be this year's adam schiff or james comemy. we're about to find out.jockey for position to get on the collision course of 47. does this help the american people at all? no. democrats don't care. because so far, they learned nothing from tuesday. former democrat presidential candidate mary anne williamson is here. pretend i'm a therapist. not going to bill you. just sit down on the couch at primetime and tell us what you're upset with and who you're upset with and why. >> who i'm upset with is a small group of media elite and political elite and donor elite felt they had the right to strategize for the democratic party as opposed to giving the power to the people, the democratic electorate. if the democratic electorate has been exposed to their options in this campaign, if for the last year and a half we had had a robust conversation about what was possible, what we should be doing for the american people, what we should articulate as a true alternative to what donald trump was offering, what we should do for the american people over the next four years

and on this issue, there is no agreement, james bayes, which is era, the g 20 and religion era. while adam tenants is the former us diplomats and previously served in the pentagon and he says, west and leaders should take notice of a change in russia's new care doctor. the russians have said that many sizes for this rest, this rest escalation. i wish to this in the past, so i take this is the messaging part of their messaging and conjunction with their doctrine of, of tactfully operation. trying to continue to make advances on the ground. and then there's, this isn't in consequential worse. and i think uh the us and european partners should take notice of this. but at the same time, once again i, i don't think this should be, should be unexpectedly. so russia would expect that at some point, $89.00 states or european states french, the germans, are furnished with some time, possibly allow of some of their long range or long range, missiles and weapons to be used inside the restaurant. this is a war of attrition. besides the maneuver the change of battle spaces is not a lot on a daily, week

james k polk had won p plurality. john quincy adams in 1824 was elected from house of representatives had fewer in the popular vote also was not really mandated in the same way. people in the united states had accepted the fact that there was going to be a lot more instability in their political process in this way then we appreciate today. it was a very different kind of political party system than we have now there were parties that were growing, dying, competing with one another all the time. every party that people in this period had ever known had died before. there had never been the same two parties or same three partiess or for parties ever to exist in american history. the federalist party, the party of the very first president of the united states, george washington did not exist. the whig party which lincoln's first love, his first party did not exist in60 1860. people understood this was the instability of the political system it was going to produce these kinds of results. >> rachel sheldon even though her tongue with the
