prichard never infer anything when he was in high school.so when he went to princeton i'm going to princeton newspaper and there's this headline that is going to run the debate team which can you imagine that can run for the debate team and having people elect you? so i thought there he is putting himself up for an election but let's see how this goes. so i scrolled ahead. found stuffed in debate team elections and no one quite knew what happened but they had to throw out the results. and so even in running for the debate team there were questions about pritchard's methods in getting what he needed to be. he was born in 1915 so when you go to washington franklin roosevelt, his political idol, is president. he didn't work closely with franklin roosevelt but they had enough interaction. at one point the story goes roosevelt was angry with the staff were leaking stories. so we called them all in and really took the paint off the walls about what would happen the next time someone leaked the story before the president had a chance to announce it

prichard seem to create one of two very distinct reactions in people. either they were just taken by his intelligence, his photographic memory his wet his ability to mimic people. on the other hand a lot of people saw him as arrogant and too big for his britches. he would say things that parties that would filter throughout washington the next day and that also filtered out in kentucky where people had two very distinct feelings about him as to whether he was an up and coming political genius or someone who is just too arrogant and too much of a no it all for his own good. pritchard never ran for anything when he was in high school so when he went to princeton i'm going to princeton newspaper and there's this headline that he's going to run for the debate team team which can you imagine running for debate team having people elect to you so i thought wow here he is putting himself up or an election so i scrolled ahead ballot stuffing debate team election and no one quite knew what it happened that they had throughout the results and so even in running fo

then there are others who say prichard had not paid his dues and begging you to show that he was still one of the local courthouse gang that washington had not made into much of an elitist, that he still understood the ways of local politics, and that it was something very common richardson. his father had done it a lot of people in bourbon county knew that's how politics work, and to help pay his dues maybe that's what he did it. he never really explained it. later in 1976 he admitted that he did it and set it was a moral blind spot that he had no explanation for. and never tried to come up with an excuse for it but that it was simply something that he regretted for the rest of his life. i wish people would see that political biographies are fascinating but they're not just fascinating about people who are elected or when office sometimes people who run for nothing or maybe losing office can have an impact in ways that you can't imagine. robert caro should this about robert moses who was unsuccessful in electoral politics but now knew how to work the system in new york to create somet
