Coming up on the road to now.

I believe there's a paucity of ideological differences in America.

You essentially kind of have the, you really go back to that Hamilton Jefferson split.

You know, you have either you want to centralize more or you want to split it up more.

You want to give the people more of a voice or you want to put some restraints on it.

So the Democrats now have this great candidate in Grover Cleveland.

The Republicans nominate the antithesis of this is James G. Blaine.

It was just corruption personified.

And there's just documents of him sending letters to people like please do this

favor for me oh and burn this letter so what you do when you don't have a private server

the constitution constitutional convention they called for the executive to be someone with energy and dispatch.

You didn't want necessarily an old man. That was the Senate from the Latin Cenex old men.

That's what the Senate is for. The presidency is supposed to be vigorous energy.

There's other things that have changed about the presidency. We certainly talk more about that, but it was supposed to be a person that was vigorous.

And it is interesting in this election, by the way, whether it was Hillary, Trump, or even Bernie,

you were going to get an older president.

Ted Cruz was the last remaining cause of the youth, the youthful presidency.

So we're going to get an older president.

But do they have the stamina?

Do they have the stamina?

I'm Bob Crawford.

And I'm Ben Sawyer, and this is the road to now.
