samu samuel tildon who prosecuted tweed and was able to bring down the tweed ring. >> we know about the hayes tilden dispute. rob from sacramento, california. >> caller: my question resonates from the grover cleveland episode. historian was asked what grover cleveland thought about william jennings bryan and he said that grover cleveland hated william jennings bryan and then he was cut off and wasn't able to finish. i was kind of curious, what did he hate him for? if, in fact, is that true? thank you. >> you want to take it? >> well, i'll start and you can follow up. he didn't like -- grover cleveland was a hard-money democratic president. he didn't like bryan's position on the silver issue. he particularly didn't like the income tax that bryan had championed in the house, and had helped pass. but it was the silver issue and breaking with the cleveland administration's repeal of the sherman silver purchase act that most got the ire of grover cleveland. >> yeah, cleveland was representative of the old democratic party, the democratic party of commercial interests from the east, especiall

and his images of boss tweed looking like a seedy devil you might say, really helped to bring tweet downand the democratic candidate at the time are important. prosecutors, later on democratic candidates for president in 1876 who prosecuted tweed and able to bring down the tweed as it came to be known. >> go ahead, california, please. >> caller: my question originates from the american president series during the grover cleveland episode, an historian was asked what groven cleveland thought of wimp yam jennings bryant, and said that froefen cleveland hated william jennings bryant and cut off and wasn't able to finish. and i was curious what did he hate him for? and is that, in fact, true? thank you. >> well, i'll start, michael, and you can follow up. he didn't like -- groven cleveland, hard money democratic preside president. he didn't like bryant's position on the sill issue. he didn't like the income tax that bryant had helped pass. it was the silver issue and breaking with the cleveland administration repeal of the sherman silver purchase act that got the ire of grover cleveland. >>

don't want us to ask the questions they want to be able to send a video where mitt romney sends a tweed or a video link and you get it that way. they prefer they call us the filter sometimes they call us the barrier. it allows them to do that in ways we have to acknowledge they can communicate with a large number of people without the news media in a way they couldn't two years ago or five years ago. >> i would say they are not that far behind. they have the capability of republicans they learn from each other every time. it's fascinating in the sense howard dean of and he raised that money on the internet you can do politics on the internet to the campaign to get to a next level and said we are going to organize. we will have town halls and reach out and touch people. then we are going to turn the now that we too and republicans have quickly come in and study this. they haven't been as innovative for us to see because the democrats won the last campaign so you say well the democrats are doing it better. the republicans have the same technology they haven't proven yet that they can use

remember the thomas nast cartoons targeting boss tweed? tweed was a tammany hall guy. it becomes the quintessential machine, the quintessential example of a party organization in a city in 19th century america. and tammany hall is really in the throes of substantial competition, fierce competition with republicans with other factions within the democratic party, as well as all through the middle decades of the 19th century. one of the things they try to do rather is get new immigrants to vote for them. they would send guys down to greet the ships when they arrived at the docks. they would help people find a place to live. they would get them a job. as soon as they could, they would get them registered to vote, naturalized and registered to vote. it became a matter of great importance to tammany to naturalize immigrants as fast as it possibly good. these naturalizations we have up here between 1856 and '67 on average about 9,200 people were naturalized per year. in 1868 there was a very fiercely competitive election and they needed as many votes as they can so they mana

vote, it has embroiled the country in controversy because so far the official tweeting swedes-- or tweeds -- have discussed masturbation and asked what's the fuzz with jews? i can answer that one. the fuzz is called pez. so last week i stepped up and graciously offered t to be the voice of sweden, but monday, sweden respond, "colbert will have to wait." ( laughter ) no one tells me to be patient! that makes me so mad! calm down, colbert. count to 10. one. to claim what's rightfully mine i have launched operation artificial swedener, urging you, members of the colbert nation, to bombard the swedes on twitter until they give it to me, and you unleashed a twit-skrieg, and according to the latest report from the local dot-com, swedish's premiere local online news source, to sweden to reveal colbert twitter news next week. we are so close nation. i have swedish fever. i've got stockholm syndrome. ( laughter ) but, folks, there's only one obstacle standing between me and the swedish tweeting supremacy-- johanas carlson, head of p.r. and social media, "of course we're very flattered colbert is i

tweed why did say to me the difference between a horse race and political race was in a horse race the whole horse ran. he was a republican. yeah. so he had all of these partners that were democrats running out there. poor dear thing. i ended up running against mccovett, they had made the districts hopefully as safe as possible for them and ugly primary and stuff and never thought i would win. jim was on the committee looking for someone to run and everybody i went to said, are you kidding? mcgovern is wearing a bikini, not wearing coattails, which was true. he kind of came and said, just do it. we'll tell the kids what you did when you get older -- well, the rest is history, we ended up winning but it was a wonderful movement and many of you were in. i can't thank you enough. i remember we -- who is your media team, we would say it's kitchen table media because literally we had friends like chuck and earny grossman trying to figure out what to say or do. and it really was put together with chewing gum and rubber bands and our average campaign contribution was $7.50. we had gone back t
