Rum, Romanism and Rebellion - The 3 Words That Changed Presidential History

from My History Can Beat Up Your Politics · host Bruce Carlson

In this episode we look at a historic campaign episode and try to solve a mystery of history of the 1884 election. Did GOP candidate Blaine hear the bigoted comments of a supporter, or didn't he? We also get an insider's view from a adept political reporter of how the other side jumped on the political opportunity created by the unfortunate comments of a reverend.
