MM#227--What Hath God Wrought?

Todays show, we will look back at a fascinating epoch in our US history and specifically at the election of 1844 with the help of the great David Walker Howe and his excellent tome, What Hath God Wrought: The Transformation of America, 1815 - 1848

Key Points from the Episode:

  • The candidates themselves 
  • The importance of the pivotal election of 1844 and the many shenanigans in New York and Michigan with 3rd party votes 
  • The very influential newspaper editor of the Whig rag, The New York Tribune,   Horace Greeley and his comments years later looking back on the election of 1844
