Sometimes getting along hinders the process, especially if groupthink is evident. We know this from business, but Bill Clinton‘s team applied it to politics. As long as the senate keeps debating, Clinton isn‘t removed from office. #impeachment #peterbaker #billclinton #senate #trial #monicalewinsky #history #politicalscience #uspolitics #ushistory #unitedstates #presidency
Should I ever teach history, I want to teach my students to put themselves in the shoes of historical figures or people of the time period. If I ever get to teach college level 1990s presidential history, I promise you there will be an assignment dedicated to what the lawyers might have said when breaking the news to Hillary of Clinton‘s confession #confession #hillaryclinton #billclinton #impeachment #peterbaker #ushistory #uspolitics
pickIt was interesting to read just how different Adams and Jefferson were, yet it is unlikely this nation could have succeeded without such differences in the founders. The hope and optimism of Jefferson to help it take off, the wisdom and cynicism of Adams to keep it from flying away. Well written. A worthwhile read.
Interesting how Hillary wrote a memo and did research on presidential impeachment- I love foreshadowing in history. #foreshadowing #irony #hillaryrodham #hillaryclinton #richardnixon #billclinton #impeachment #uspolitics #ushistory #history #politicalscience #presidency #peterbaker
Let‘s play a fun game called how many quotes can we read that we can apply to today? #billclinton #impeachment #peterbaker #unitedstates #uspresidency #uspolitics #ushistory #corruption #history #politicalscience
One positive from the Nixon investigation- both parties were willing to investigate to get to the truth. #impeachment #timothynaftali #richardnixon #resignation #bipartisan #houseofrepresentatives #senate #ushistory #uspolitics #investigation #history #politicalscience
