» Tina_Coruth - This is so interesting!
Hi John,This is so interesting! It seems that Clay had a talent for compromise, yet a real need to manipulate and both often backfired on him.
I look forward to the next article!

In response to message posted by Mugwump53:Hi John,
Thank you for such a nice compliment! However, I could only make my observation after reading your article. Presidents & First Ladies couldn't have a better editor. As Jerri has said, "you make history come alive." :-)

In response to message posted by Tina_Coruth:Thanks, Tina. The most fascinating part of history is the people. That's why I am enjoying your series on Josiah Bartlett so much. You, too, have brought an interesting historical figure to life.
It's always good to see you here. Thanks for the supportive comments.

In response to message posted by Terrie_Bittner:Hi Terrie. Haven't seen you here in a while. Great to have you back! I especially appreciate your generous, supportive comments. To paraphrase someone, history is often made by ordinary people who find themselves in extraordinary circumstances.
Thanks again for the kind words of support.
