Summary
Even back in 2019, Charlie had an exceptional way of explaining what made America exceptional. At one of the earliest iterations of YWLS, Charlie explains what made Washington, Jefferson, and Hamilton so much more remarkable than conquerors like Napoleon or Alexander the Great. Simple: Because they built a limited government that would live beyond them, rather than maximizing power for themselves and their descendants. And as a result, the American republic has blossomed to be the greatest nation in history.
