Folks if you really want to know some facts then please read what Garfield’s doctor did to him for fame! Garfield was put through the most ridiculous and most painful of attempts to cure him! Absolute horrific and disgusting! RIP Brother James

Came here after watching Chester Arthur video and this was dope . Garfield seemed like a great man !! He was a Swiss Army knife . Excelling in everything he put his mind to. I just googled him and Netflix series is in the works . I’m also curious on Roscoe Conkling that dude seems like a puppet master .

As Garfield resigned as an Elder in the Church of Christ in 1881, he stated, “I resign the highest office in the land to become President of the United States”.

I was wondering if that fact was going to be brought up about the doctors who treated Garfield. I heard that too. Had the president had more competent doctors, he probably would’ve lived a lot longer than he did.

Why does Prager felate the federal government so much? Seriously, this video is propaganda to make Lincoln’s federal government look good. It was a treasonous group of cowardly crooks. Any Lincolnite was and is an enemy to the USA. The vast majority during the 1800’s were not civil rights advocates. The vast majority of Republicans in the 1800’s believed whites were the superior race and Lincoln spoke to this.

Guiteau gave one speech in Garfield's favor Garfield had no clue who Guiteau was. Guiteau believed he was entitled to a cabinet position for giving one speech. this was not an assassination due to political patronage but a crazy man who had no reason to believe he would be considered for a position in the first place.

I'm sure the assassin was just another "lone nut" and Garfield's death had nothing to do with installing his VP Chester Arthur, a backer of the Stalwart faction.

An interesting story. Johny Cash sang "Mr. Garfield" in the 60's era, as I recall. I'd always wondered why his assissination seems to be largely forgotten. (An obscure folk song?) Have we become inured to the frequency ofassassinations these days, I wonder.

It was London who killed Garfield much like our other Presidents. Much like how they created the American civil war. The British (City of London) are the ones who created our divide in the first place to put brother against brother. After the war Lincoln wanted to rebuild the South and had plans to do so. He and half his Cabinet were assassinated by London. Many of the others that survived had multiple assassination attempts on them especially William Seward who had like a dozen or so, many almost killing him. Most of the Operations for the Civil War and post war plans and assassinations were made in London and then sent to Montreal a hub for spies and intel in the Americas for the British Empire then passed through to Confederate President Jefferson Davis to follow the orders. Many of the South's own leaders were selling out the South to British interest even General Lee. Unfortunately London had many of their Tentacles and Webs on both sides. Lincoln stated that the Department Of State is completely controlled by British Interest that he had to constantly fight against. It was in the 1870s that a Paradigm Shift happened were the British took control within the Reunited States through subversion (which was easy to do so as all their agents were brought back into the Union and a large part of their opposition killed) and have had it all the way up to this day. Some presidents fought against it like Garfield, McKinley, Harding, Roosevelt, and Kennedy and all were killed. If you read the very writings themselves from the people directly involved you get a Much different picture of history than if you listen to it from 3rd parties. Just like with what really happened in WW2 and what happened with FDR. One place to start is his son Elliot Roosevelts writings. FDR brought him along to his meetings especially the ones with Churchill and Stalin. He made sure Stalin and his son were well acquainted. Both FDR and Stalin did not trust Churchill at all. FDR has said on multiple occasion that Churchill/Londons goal is to both maintain the Empire and strengthen it. FDRs stated goal was to stop the Empires of Europe and make sure the colonies have their sovereignty. When FDR died Elliot Roosevelt met with Stalin and Stalin was quoted saying "it was Churchill and his gang who killed your father". Probably the best book to read on the subject is "The Clash of the Two Americas. The Unfinished Symphony" by Matthew Ehret. I have no affiliation with them but they also have an audiobook which can make it easier since not many people like to sit down and read anymore. It has multiple references on the bottom of each page of the book.

I think Civil Service Reform is a bit of a mixed legacy actually. While it's true something needed to be done about the corruption that was rampant in that era, the result today is a permanent bureaucracy that can't be fired.

There was ONE major advantage of the patronage system. EVERY bureaucrat from the postal worker to the cabinet had to reapply at the start of every new administration... so few were able to create a long term power structure. What we have now is millions of civil "servants" who basically cannot be fired, and get extremely generous pay, health care and pensions. Close to 40% or more of our country's 'GDP" is unproductive govt work.. work that makes life harder for most US citizens.
