For the People, For the Country
When the hyper-partisanship of the 1790s drove the new nation to the bring of civil war, Patrick Henry came out of retirement, at George Washington's request, to remind people what it meant to be a loyal opposition, to support the government even when you disagreed with a particular policy. John Ragosta will discuss his new book -- For the People, For the Country -- and how Thomas Jefferson and James Madison took a step back from the partisanship that they had promoted.
