this was michele bachmann back in 2008 speaking to "the monticello times." i'll put it on the screen. "bachmann said six years in the minnesota senate was a huge help overcoming the partisan poison that is so prevalent in washington as well. coming from minnesota, you learned to reach across the aisle, bachmann said. some of my closest friends there were democrats. the problems we're going to face in the next term are so big, no one party can solve them all. you have to work together. i think i've made that a priority and will continue to do that." that doesn't sound like the congresswoman bachmann of 2011 who's now running for the presidency, does it? >> no, it really does, because when i was in minnesota, i think one thing that i'm extremely proud of was education reform. that's where i cut my political teeth. i put five years of my life into changing minnesota's education system. people said it couldn't be done, and i was able to help bring it about. we actually were able to get the federal government out of our education system and enhance our high acade

and you go to presidential establishments -- mount vernon, monticello, recently montpelier, james madison'some in virginia has become a sort of museum and center -- and here they're wonderful institutions because they have brought together every conceivable object, paper. i know, i've been writing a little bit about the madison house, and they have surveyed all the general region, they've found furniture that madison had owned and touched, articles of clothing, toothpicks, spectacles, everything you can think of. [laughter] and they're all lovingly collected and under glass which i think is wonderful. but if you look at it from a sightly skew as i do, it's kind of interesting, too, the way we retrieve these things. and i think it also, it also belies the idea that americans are not interested in our history. i think we're deeply interested in our history. not every american is as interested in others, but i think our presidential libraries and museums definitely, definitely reflect a national interest in our, in our past. um, now, if you'll forgive a die depression, the reason i mentioned a
