colonial printers like benjamin franklin published these. frank was published -- franklin published this one in 1745, the year after the treaty of lancaster. these were not bestsellers of their day. people did not gather around franklin's printshop, but they did circulate. and oftentimes, editors gave as to what was going on to try to explain the rituals that were described here. so, they did become kind of a guide for people who were interested in understanding the rules and protocols of native american diplomacy. in the case of the treaty of lancaster, which did circulate in london, the chief iroquois speaker gave some very famous speeches at the treaty of so famous that in 1750 five when a london novelist was writing a romance novel, he made him a character. he had him coming over to london and falling in love with an english girl. he had been dead for five years when he did that, but the figure had become familiar enough to readers in london that he could serve his purpose in a romance novel. for the native americans themselves, of cours

franklin has taken the mantle from his father, who founded "christianity today."made it clear that he does not stand with the editor, although the editor is doing what is, from a christian standpoint, the christian thing. an opportunity for democrats as you go into november 2020, if you can pick up some evangelicals? we may be wrong about this -- but we think about them tending to vote with republicans these days. of the things that is frustrating about where this process stands right now is where the reverend was just talking about -- look at the poll numbers. republican members will stand with the majority leader. that is not standing with the issues, civility, the constitution, that is standing with the majority leader. the fact that we are looking at poll numbers, even if they have not moved, have been high, suggesting the majority of americans expected this president to be impeached. that is a really high poll number around this issue. think about past impeachments, where it was with bill clinton, the number of individuals supporting impeachment right now for

and it was founded by benjamin franklin. and many of the graduates of there, alumnis wrote the constitution. and i want to tell you this is the country at its best. we should not hate each other. we should understand this is what benjamin franklin designed this in our constitution, that we have to have debate. and what we are doing is right. we should not make a argument about which one is right, which one is wrong. accept this is not what you get in other countries. the other countries are terrible. they're -- i came from those countries. and they don't have rights. they don't have any of these political arguments. this is we have freedom. we should cherish this freedom. instead of hating each other. this is the greatest country. and we should accept whatever it happens, it's happening for the good of this country. i just want everybody to know. >> all right. john mccartel. >> greta, with about a half an hour before the house gavels in for its work today, want to remind viewers where we are in in process of impeachment. her

[cheering] mayor buttigieg: sounds like we are ready for that? [cheering] mayor buttigieg: i think it cannot come soon enough. it is going to happen one way or the other. it will be a relief when it does. putting the chaos behind us. putting the corruption behind us. putting the tweets behind us. [laughter] mayor buttigieg: but honestly, the reason i am asking you to picture this is not just to give us something to look forward to. the country will be better off when we no longer have a divider in chief occupying the office. that is beginning of the work that must come next. if you could picture what it will be like in this country on that day, the sun will come up over a united states that is even more divided than we are right now

franklin seduced the educated elite as the first rock star. adams understood the desire among human beings to be seen and loved. he zoomed in on the force of spectatorship. then there was the opposite, the fear of obscurity, of insignificance. long beforlong before andy warhw every american wants 15 minutes of fame, adams placed the danger epicenter of this constitutional theory. thees political parties use the same method and marketing candidates and the attractive appearance of the glamorous reputation. if that wasn't enough, flattery, his delightful word would keep supporters mesmerized. john adams understood politics as a cricket game as far back as 1790. his point was these impulses emerge in all governments. republics and democracies alike. a society that rewards ambitions cannot avert the mad scramble for public recognition. they lived vicariously through their idols. vicarious was his word. it was o that voters lived for e show. we document these things and they are not selectively drawn to the political scene which a lot of people for
