      <title>Al Smith, Presidential Contender</title>
      <description>Historians Beverly Gage and John Evers talked about the life and career of 1928 Democratic presidential nominee Alfred E. Smith, Jr. (1873-1944). Nicknamed the "Happy Warrior," Al Smith never went to high school or college, yet he was speaker of the New York State Assembly and four-term governor. He was the first Catholic ever nominated by a major party and is honored at the annual Alfred E. Smith Memorial Dinner, at which presidential nominees of both parties speak. Video clips of past dinners were shown as well as clips of Al Smith and a 1932 newsreel. Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver and Al Smith's great-grandson gave taped interviews. The historians responded to telephone calls, electronic communications, and the audience in the New York State Assembly Chamber.
"The Contenders: They Lost the Election But Changed Political History" is a C-SPAN series of live programs about 14 presidential candidates before 1996 who lost the election but who had a lasting effect on U.S. politics.</description>

      <title>New York Gubernatorial Inauguration</title>
      <description>David Paterson was sworn in by Chief Judge Judith Kaye as the 55th governor of New York State at a joint session of the State Assembly and State Senate in the Assembly Chamber. Following his warm and humorous introductions of many New York dignitaries and his family, he spoke of unity and civility in government. He said the principal challenge faced by the legislature will be the economic downturn and its probable affect on the state budget. He promised a "brighter future."
 
 Governor Paterson moved up from lieutenant governor after his predecessor Democratic Governor Eliot Spitzer  resigned over a prostitution scandal.

      <title>American Gathering of Holocaust Survivors</title>
      <description>President Clinton addressed American survivors of the Holocaust gathered in New York City in the 50th anniversary year of the end of the Holocaust. This human tragedy, the president declared, "redefined our understanding of the human capacity for evil."  He warned of the existance of hatred, intolerance, and racism. These vices still lurk in our society waiting to be spread, but if the Holocaust is not forgotten then perhaps such evil cannot revisit the earth.</description>
