Fascinating! I once heard that while his grandfather gave the longest inauguration speech (and died from complications due to exposure in about a month), Benjamin Harrison gave one of the shortest 😊

Videos like these are what confuse me about Prager sometimes. Don't get me wrong, all the anti-slavery/discrimination stuff here is good, but nothing else about Harrison seems particularly conservative or helpful. "He hired a young Teddy Roosevelt!" Um, TR was awful and in no way a conservative. "He helped implement the Sherman Anti-Trust Act!" Not a helpful or productive piece of legislation at all. "He raised tariffs to help American business!" Really? Conservatives are somehow pro-tariff now and willing to ignore Econ 101? Thankfully Grover Cleveland succeeded Harrison and righted this wrong - Prager should be doing a video praising him instead. The only real takeaway I get from this video is "Bejamin Harrison should be respected as president because he *did* a lot of things!" Great. So did FDR, LBJ, and Barack Obama. We should be celebrating presidents that do as little as possible and let markets function. Coolidge FTW.

Let us not forget, what he did to bolster the U.S. Navy. And most important to me right now as I am the father of a 8 yr old little girl in the 3rd grade, he signed a proclamation to have all of America's schools fly high, the American flag as well as recite the Pledge of Allegiance. He, the republican president signed this proclomation. My daughter attends a local and private Christian school in Bellevue WA that says the POA is of liberal and socialist origin. FALSE! Just because Francis Belamy was a Christian Socialist, doesn't mean that the POA is so bad that we should ban our children from saying the POA. In fact, no one rightfully knows who definitively and factually wrote the poem (POA). It was either Fracis Belamy, or James Upham who wrote it. But to this very day, no one actually knows. Irregardless, you know who, too, was a Christian Socialist? Dr. King! That doesn't mean he was a terrible man. Quite the contrary. Dr. King was a wonderful and integral man of and for the Civil Rights Movement, and yet my daughters school saw fit to celebrate and honor his birthday this month of January. In fact, my daughter recited Dr. Kings "Blueprint" speech for the whole lower class school! My whole family recognizes Dr. King as integral for a better America. Why is Francis Belamy considered to be a basterd of sinful nature!? Just because he was a supposed socialist???! Christian Socialisim doesn't make either men a bad example. The POA is essential for our young boys and girls to gain a foundation of love, honor, and respect for our country. Thank you for this video of President Benjamin Harrison. I very much appreciate it and plan on using it as a tool to bring ammo to my argument to the officals of the school in order to bring the POA back to her classrooms.

Benjamin Harrison was responsible for the disastrous McKinley Tariff, which hurt the economy and the morally dubious taking of Hawaii. The Wounded Knee Massacre also happened under his watch and corruption was rampant in his administration. For these reasons, I rank him among the bottom ten worst presidents despite his accomplishments.

If anyone's interested, there's a British band called UNIT that released a whole album inspired by and dedicated to Prageru, TPUSA and The Daily Wire. I discovered their You Tube channel a couple of years ago and most of their stuff is excellent. I'm not an agent for the band nor do I know any of them but, to judge from their lyrics, they seem genuine. I found them by typing UNIT Andy Martin The Voice Of Reason into YT which did the trick. They have the entire album as a playlist. One of their tracks features the mighty Ben Shapiro and they do a cracking version of Columbia Gem Of The Ocean, too! PS No, I am not the singer’s dad nor am I their manager or related in any way to the group!

While Benjamin Harrison did a lot of great things, you forgot that while paying the veterans thier pension and being warned by Grover Cleveland that doing so could tank the economy, it caused the first Depression in 1893? after Grover Cleveland started his 2nd term. Look into the History Channels The Presidents episodes. Both Depressions caused by Republicans (And I am a long time Republican for 50+ years). All the facts are the facts. There was good and not so good.

Good for Prager U for presenting these videos --- I UP Vote them almost always --- regarding many facets of our American Experience, but, I would hope that they would change the standards by which they evaluate our elected office-holders. E.g., I would like to see such evaluations made based on the degree to which such individuals adhere to our fundamental Self-Evident American Truths n Principles; e.i., as expressed in our Unanimous Declaration; where, after all, are these truths n principles not the fundamentals of our American Way Of Life; that is, our American Common Core? *_MAGA NOW ... more than ever!_*
