mckinley and her legacy and role in the white house? >> absolutely. wonderful mate, wonderful supportive wife of william, of course, you know the story about her having epilepsy and the fact that, you know, mckinley was such a wonderful husband that when she had the epileptic seizures at dinner functions, he would place a napkin over her face and then they'd go on with dinner. because they lost both children that's the reason they have no direct descendents because both daughters died in infancy. and they want today memorialize mckinley and, too, the white house first ladies home is actually, was actually her home. did you know that? >> no, i didn't. >> it absolutely is. the first lady's museum is actually out of mckinley's home and it's beautiful, beautiful structure. i think that hillary clinton inaugurated that home back in the day. >> so if one were to look at that period of time, it was a time of great disruption and technological change and industrial change. there are a lot of parallels to today. so, going through the digital revolution and challenges with immigration as there were back at that t

think she because of the death of both fathers and the death -- you know, the assassination of william mckinley caused her to really want to memorialize mckinley and the white house first lady's home is -- was actually her home. did you know that? >> i didn't. >> the first lady's museum was out of saxton mckinley's home and it is a beautiful, beautiful structure. i think hillary clinton integrated that home back in the day. >> so if one were to look at that period of time it was the time of great disruption and technological change, industrial change, though, parallels to today. so, you know, going through the digital revolution, there's challenges with immigration as they were back at that time. the purpose of studying history to understand our time today, what would you takeaway from the mckinley era that people can help to understand the time that we are going through. >> i think like you said, the technological advances and we just were expanding at rapid speeds and money was being poured into the country for industrial expansion and today we can take the strides to make sure that we have t

i'm related to grover cleveland and on my father's side to william mckinley the great nephew, william mckinley and the great-grandson of grover cleveland. >> is happen chance because my parents married and the two -- my father was a professor and during the course of time at the breakfast table we talk about the presidential politics and descendents and learn so many stories about both families from the conversations with him. >> of the two are very different, aren't they? let's start with the one whose family name you bear and what do you want them to know, you've studied his legacy. >> we had industrial revolutions and expansions around the world, just tremendous growth and i think a lot of times sadly enough both grover cleveland is forgotten but through the books that wereri written about both d you remember he's always been revered jacqueline kennedy founded the efforts with education and preservation and legacy, learning about those that will be remembered and i'm trying very hard to do that. >> we visited the memorial in canton ohio. tell the audience a story of how that came t

to tell the audience the story of how that came to be. >> so, the william mckinley memorial way back in the day, people revered him and of course you know the significance about the roses that they were back in the day but the citizens of ohio thought that it was befitting to actually come togetherg and create a memorial to his legacy and of course in my opinion he's probably the most revered because he was not only a house member but alsoo the last u.s. civil war president.so so i think the legacy of data that produced and in addition to the fact that he was assassinated probably contributed to this wonderful memorial, and it really truly is. >> it's an impressive the amount of space thatiz it takes and the size of the memorial itself, which i understood the first lady was very much involved in the buildup. >> that's correct. >> v memorial museum is also on the same campus. what you talk a little bit about missus mckinley and her legacy and role in the white house? >> wonderful mate and a supportive wife and of course you knowm, the story about her having a policy and the fact that

william mckinley, george w. bush, william howard taft or hillary clinton? m going to have to go with mckinley. kennedy: nope. these are tough. at home robin 1920, gun taken by a serial killer who killed ten sailors. i killed seven sailors in prom night and in a different way. he lured them into yachts. i also did that prom night. [laughter] jenna. you can tie daniel with this, which president gambled away a set of white house china while in office? john f. kennedy, warren harding, haze or hunter biden? >> well played, i'm going to go with jfk, it seems like . kennedy: no, his uncle morris. he's an old guy, china. i invented china. take it away you gamblers. stephen. what a hack. stephen, you could catch up with this. which of these presidents said his favorite snack was cottage cheese and catch up? richard nixon, donald trump, george herbert walker bush or larry the cable guy? >> this is a very savage thing to eat so richard nixon. kennedy: you are on the board. [cheering] last round, i'm going to let you price your luck, i'll give you each to points. daniel

ryan: he modeled it on william mckinley, another ohio president.arding did a little bit of traveling and speaking, but not much. his home in ohio is still there, the famous front porch. you can see pictures and videos. throngs of people coming, and he would give speeches from that porch. if you are ambitious, the office should seek the man, the man should not seek the office. he knew how to run a campaign like that. the other thing is, i don't think they needed to run a good campaign. the country was in a mess, particularly economically. they just had to keep from making mistakes. they were pretty confident they were going to win. susan: the 1920 election was the first time women have the right to vote. how did that impact the results? ryan: i think it impacted them pretty well. harding was the first president to get 60% of the vote. a lot of women voted for harding, it's pretty obvious. they could see the shape the country was in. 1919, pretty awful events. then you going to 1920, the economy essentially collapses. unemployment goes up to 12%. ind

i've been to william mckinley's tomb, you know, i would go to warren harding's house. you know, we would do things like that and most of us were run by the state of ohio not national park sites, but i was amazed and proud that so many presidents we call ohio the mother of all presidents and we'd be in a competition with virginia of who it produced the most and it's just the way you want to do them math because william henry here, so it's actually born in virginia but lived, you know, you know, indiana, ohio so he gets he came to the presidency from ohio. so if you want to count them, then you know, we have these seven presidents. why did you pickle her state? it was a inexpensive we didn't have a lot of money. we were we were fine a middle-class family, but my dad doing my dad was still working for own solenoy a glass company and my sister got into notre dame and that just not too far in indiana. i applied to other schools that i got in but in the end, ohio state was the state school where i lived and you didn't have to pay that much. i i think the big attraction was i
