goes to Washington all the way through for the first time last night. I wish every single person in this country would watch it.

1. I teach Government in the summer for High School

always show it when we study the legistlative branch

2. Cool, I watched it too

It's been 25 years since I've seen it.

The thing that struck me was the lack of instant media. It's amazing that any good people were elected back then, because it would have been so easy to fool the public.

It was strange watching the Repukes smear Smith via billboards and impromptu parades. :)
