And now it's time for who smarted?

Pse. Hey, Smarty Pants. Here's a quick question for any Smarty Pants living in the United States

or anyone who has ever seen or paid using American money. Do you know the name of the person

on the $10 bill? If you said George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Jackson, or Ben Franklin.

Sorry, smarties. But if you said Alexander Hamilton, you're right. But wait, smarty

pants, who was Alexander Hamilton? The funny thing is, if I asked this question 20 years ago,

a lot of listeners would have probably had trouble answering it. But these days,

a lot of you do know thanks to a particular Broadway musical.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, stop the music, stop the music. I have done way too much to be remembered

simply as a musical and song and dance number. But Mr. Hamilton, the play about you was hugely successful and received many of the world's

highest honors that included 11 Tony Awards, 7 Olivier Awards, and a Pulitzer Prize for drama.

Trust me, when I say, the play about your life is more than just a song and dance number.

Gah, I don't know anything about that.

I just care about the Republic.

Some say you cared a lot about yourself, too.

Do you blame me?

You try starting a new country.

For that, you need big leaders with big ideas and even bigger personalities.

Smarty Pants, do you know what role Alexander Hamilton had

back when the United States was brand new?

Was he, A, America's first vice president?

B, the first Treasury Secretary, or C, the first Defense Secretary?
