Part 3:  This is the History Lesson Segment: Alexander Hamilton, (Jan 11, 1755 – Jul 12, 1804), During the Revolutionary War, Hamilton first served with the New York militia and later become an aide to General George Washington. After the war, he practiced law and founded the Bank of New York. He also served in the state legislature in New York. Hamilton was well known for his belief in a strong central government. He was the country’s first Secretary of the Treasury, and can still be seen as the face on the nation’s ten dollar bill. He was considered to be a political philosopher and was a coauthor of the Federalist Papers along with James Madison, and John Jay. Jefferson’s coalition became known as the Democratic-Republicans and a rivalry between top party member Aaron Burr developed. The election of 1800 became a competition between the top two party leaders as the Federalist’s ideas had lost much of their appeal to the new Americans. Burr lost to Jefferson and became vice-president. Hamilton created the New York Post shortly after this and developed an intense feud with Aaron Burr. This eventually led to a famous duel which ended with Hamilton being shot. The day after the duel he died from his gunshot wounds.

Part 4:  Ray talks about a question that was posed by the sage of K’bunk “Non-English speaking folks from half-way around the world can learn of the opportunity for a better life here in America, and can find the gumption and resources to get here. Why don’t English speaking American citizens living in our municipal areas just collect their loved ones and travel a few hundred miles, avail themselves of the same resources, and start anew. Past Americans have pulled up stakes and headed West for opportunity(s). Is it that entities like the Catholic and Lutheran charities find aiding immigrants a better means to fundraise?” Ray does his best to address this question.
