Summary:

Only twice in American history has there been three two-term presidencies in a row. The second time, the presidencies of Clinton, Bush, and Obama, featured presidents with little in common in terms of political principles. The first time, however, was a different story. Kevin Gutzman joins Tom to talk about his new book on the subject, The Jeffersonians: The Visionary Presidencies of Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe.
