President Jefferson is the central character, but the machinations of his Federalist opponents kept matters complex. Also important are the principal diplomats -- Robert Livingston and James Monroe on the American side; Talleyrand, Francois de Barbe-Marbois and Napoleon on the French -- whose crucial mix of personality, circumstance and skill made the United States a continental nation so early in its existence http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/176834-1 info@c-spanarchives.org (National Cable Satellite Corporation) http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/176834-1 Sat, 28 Aug 2010 00:00:00 GMT Dr. Carl Weiss, Jr,. made his first public appearance to speak about the impact of the shooting of Huey Long on the Weiss family.
