Assume the Position 201 with Mr. Wuhl2007

Robert Wuhl:
We've had some really lousy leaders in this country. In fact, I'm going to assume the position that lousy leaders are as American and apple pie. And staring with Aaron Burr. In just our third presidential election, Aaron Burr actually tied Thomas Jefferson in the Electoral College and only became vice president because his old nemesis, Alexander Hamilton, used his influence to elect Jefferson. Burr, a less-than-gracious loser responds by shooting Alexander Hamilton. Thereby becoming our first vice president to shoot somebody.
