Episode description

Before the White House, before political parties fully took shape, and before America had even decided how it wanted to govern itself, there was George Clinton. He didn’t wear a powdered wig for fashion. He wore it through gun smoke and battle. A wartime general, a power-hungry governor, and one of the longest-serving public officials in early American history, Clinton seemed destined to be more than just a sidekick.

Yet despite holding the office of vice president under not one but two presidents, he never claimed the top job for himself. Why?

Was it age? Politics? Health? Or was it that Clinton didn’t want to play by the rules of a system he never fully trusted?
