host: president is seeking reelection after washington, james pohl, buchanan, rutherford b hayes, calvin coolidge, lbj, now joe biden. how many of them do you think stepped down because he didn't think they would win again if they ran? guest: i think probably most. the only one that maybe could have won again is polk. he came into the presidency saying he wanted to do a number of things, had done a number of them. overseeing the end of the mexican-american war, which expanded the united states. somewhere expanded about that but also didn't reignite the debate over slavery, whether these new territories would be free or enslaved states. that could have potentially been used against him. you make a really good point. a lot of times, presidents, especially in the 19th century, it was not quite so rare for presidents to be one term, whether their party decided not to go with them or they decided not to run, health was very unpredictable. it was a small number, and that is worth noting. host: coming to the next level, the vice presidency, a column in today's wall street journal, for a vice pr

and that's brutal like james buchanan. but he tried it is best he will become a major figure in the american civil war, though for the wrong reasons. he's going to spend basically the entire war complaining that nobody appreciates him enough. they should be giving him more to do and eventually lincoln's going to be like, john, please just go away. but he is famous because of his exploration and he becomes famous alongside a critical figure who helps him in endeavors and by the name of kit carson. but i want to say army, officers often went out west alone or with other soldiers. but at other times they decided that wanted to take their wives with them. and if you weren't, officer, you had the right to do this and so fremont there takes his wife jesse, benton fremont, who's the daughter of a famous senator who was one of the biggest promoters of manifest destiny in u.s. history, george custer, who will explore in the west and the yellowstone in black hills after the civil war takes, his wife, libbie custer, with him on his e

i want to talk just briefly about president james buchanan, because there he is in the white house. he's a lame duck for about four months between. lincoln's election in november 1860. and this very precarious, dangerous time, which is the counting of the electoral vote. in february of 1861. and then he's lincoln's not inaugurated until march. so there's all kinds of plot afoot there's i never knew were ideas of assassinating lincoln even before the war began. so that's one of the things i found out marvelously, fully detailed here in this book. but you quote, a navy lieutenant, a guy named dixon porter, who wrote something about president buchanan that gave me the chills. and this is the first time. the only time i felt this reading this book, porter wrote this frederick rising with rebels by the of the united states struck me as very singular i could not understand how a man who had sworn to uphold the constitution and maintain the laws of the country could be receiving the felicity of a rebel cause. so you can see why had some chills. my question he wasn't alluding to anything wa
