Rivals and Allies

Henry Clay

Remini discusses Henry Clay on Booknotes. You can also read the transcript (Aired May 5, 1992).

The Senate's "Historican Minute" blurb on the Death of Clay.

Christian, "Confederate," "Anti-socialist" comments by Al Benson, Jr. prompted by Henry Clay, his "American System," and Remini's biography: "This country has been in the throes of some form of socialism at least since the 1820s, and it's time we woke up long enough to smell the decay!" There's a lot of this sort of analysis on the Web, but I'll let this stand for the whole.
