It was Thomas Jefferson’s big bold real estate deal, the 15 Million Dollar Louisiana Purchase that was just too good to pass up.

44:18

Abraham Lincoln’s election of 1860 saw an amazing 80% voter turnout due in part to extreme passions for who would be leading our divided nation, they had never and would never be as high.

Jack Kennedy won the presidency as a fresh new face for a new generation. A young, renegade leader who pushed the standards of how the White House conducted its business.

The Soviets weren’t too thrilled when this actor turned President rolled into the White House. His Build-Up-To-Build-Down strategy was about to make life very, very difficult for them.
