Which election pick upset you the most? 😬
BIDEN
CARTER 1980
CARTER 2024
1936. FDR was terrible economically.
Thomas = Theodore apparently.
Imagine having a hard time picking a candidate because they’re both good instead of them both being awful that must be nice.
Hard to imagine that happening again anytime soon.

There have been numerous highly competent people running for president in the past thirty years. Your brand of political cynicism is popular these days, but it often comes with a very unrealistic idea of how democracy works - collaboration and compromise between people in power who simply need to be well-informed, respect expertise, diplomatic and intelligent enough to distinguish fact from fiction.
I both highly agree, and highly disagree.
If we’re just talking the last 10 years, or even the last 20, we have had either presidents that are far too emotional, to the point of affirming radicalism, or presidents that compromise to such a degree, they become party-puppets rather than autonomous, well-educated leaders that draw upon their studies. They’re too forged by political status rather than actual progress, though that’s not their fault as individuals. That’s more of an issue with populist politics, as well as political nepotism/traditionalism. Prior to that though, I would agree. Nixon just had bad luck when he was caught, otherwise, he was actually a fairly regular and fairly positive president. Not super forward-thinking, but a very solid leader. Post-Nixon was basically.... fairly strong all the way up to the end of the 90s, though Reagan set some fairly frightening precedents in terms of populism over efficacy. And Bush Jr. not always as bad as people say, but still mostly poor, especially in regards to the precedent set in how interventionism is conducted, how we handle oil shortages, and implementing the start of a Surveillance State. Obama did not help in that regard. Trump and Biden have ultimately ignored the Surveillance issue, keeping focus away from it. As for their issues of choice, admittedly, they had brought light to issues like immigration and gun violence, but I’m not sure if they really had very strong reforms in that regard. Immigration reform will be a long , gradual, and arduous process, so we’ll have to wait and see on that.
On the other hand, gun rights, in the public space, has very weak discussions. Moreover, abortion is strangely lacking right now in terms of grounded conversations that are rational and runs too much on emotion, and no president ever seems to address this.
That’s a massive problem that somewhat has marred every presidency though. Pathos over Logos in rhetoric. It’s just becoming worse with time.

Why don't we ever listen to what presidents warn about in their farewell addresses? Washington warned against political parties, Eisenhower warned against the military industrial complex.
To be fair, political parties probably do more good than harm, since it's usually an indication that candidates are actually trying to compete with each other to keep their party in power instead of making false promises and disregarding public opinion. I actually think one of the major causes of Mexico's problems come from the fact that there's really only one major political party there.
I agree, however, that the military industrial complex has become problematic. I don't think it's as simple as divesting funds into other sectors, since there are so many jobs and foreign relations that depend on the American military, but I do think the economy would likely improve if some of that money went into healthcare and/or education.
And Reagan warned against communism
and Clinton allegedly not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky.
Well that’s only two farewell addresses, but your point is still taken
and let's not forget about Jimmy Carter's warnings against fanny packs and MC Hammer pants... so eerily prescient.
You're not fooling anyone, Mr. Beat, we know that secretly you're immortal and you've voted in every election.

I wonder if he ever thinks late at night
that he should have voted for George Washington instead of George Washington
He ran in 1872
Too Funny !!!!
Is he secretly the queen?
I like imagining Mr.Beat as a 250 year old immortal that was around for all of these elections.

Walter Mondale passed away today unfortunately. In the stream Mr. Beat talked about how Mondale was still alive, but that was only true for a few more hours. RIP :(
RIP
He was the earliest vice president still alive. RIP
Never cared for him but as much as I don’t like her politics have developed a soft spot for Geraldine Ferraro.

thanks!
Pin this comment!! Thank you, much needed!!
You deserve a medal of honor but I hope my 69th like will suffice
I really like how all of your picks were very well reasoned and based on policy instead of emotion.
The most recent year he talked about is almost 30yrs ago hard to have emotion in it really
Man literally chose to not pick FDR because he wanted someone else, no other reasons given
absurd.
alot of the reasons he gave were just silly or because "he's more experienced".
Kind of hard to get emotional about politicians who have been dead for tens if not hundreds of years... he purposefully did not discuss any of the elections since 2000, which are the ones the average person alive today gets emotional about.
Thank you Mr Beat. This was a marathon of a video, but I think this is one of the most important videos I've watched in a long time. Thank you so much for your content.
Funny fact: Calvin Coolidge talked so little, he got the nickname Silent Cal. At one point, someone made a bet that he could get Silent Cal to say at least 3 words by the end of a meeting. Silent Cal headers about this and only at the end of the meeting did he finally say to the man, “You lose!” Everyone burst out laughing.
ok thats funny 😂

Not sure how I stumbled across this video, let alone stayed for the whole 3.5 hour duration. I'm from Australia and was born in 1994 haha. Fascinating history lesson!
Fun Fact: In the election of 1920, Eugene Debs, an openly socialist third party candidate, ran most of his presidential campaign from a jail cell and got over 3% of the popular vote. For reference, Jo Jorgensen only managed to get about 1% of the popular vote in the 2020 election. Why was Debs in jail? Because he dared to speak out against the WW1 draft.
Eugene Debs is one of my heros
Eugene debs lost his mind and died alone in a sanitarium! A fate all socialists must see
Ross Perot got 19% and I think Gary Johnson in 2016 got more or equal to Eugene.
still a socialist.... we got FDR instead *d'oh*

*Fun fact* : Although is a pretty common thing to do in modern times, Woodrow Wilson was the first president since James Monroe to run for re-election with the exact same vice president .
What was the reason for this?

Great video. I gotta say, I understand where Teddy was coming from in 1912 though, and I don't think it was entirely ego driven. Conservation was the "baby" of his presidency and Taft completely abandoned him there. Roosevelt had called it the single most important issue and created multiple national parks, established the U.S. Forest Service, created bird refuges, and set aside millions of acres of land to be federally protected. He's pretty much the sole reason the west wasn't completely torn down by timber companies. Taft promised TR that he would keep up his legacy here and protect federal land, but then completely abandoned his promise and began selling this land off to for-profit companies. Roosevelt was (understandably) pissed and couln't believe that the guy he had hand-picked as his successor would betray him like that. So while it's unfortunate that TR running led to Wilson's election, I blame Taft much more than Roosevelt. Teddy was just trying to protect his legacy and ensure that his work wasn't all for nothing.
Great channel! I was fortunate enough to have discovered it during a "Stained Glass Stories" UA-cam video on Shoegaze versus Grunge. Everything you put together is informative and entertaining.

I think you’re all missing the point, the original comment isn’t highlighting specific elections in particular it’s just giving everyone a general sense of where the year they are looking for is at
I love Robert F. Kennedy’s speech in Indianapolis after the assassination of Dr. King. He spoke with heart and it resonated with the people. I wish we were able to see what kind of President he’d be.
Probably a good one but he was totally wrong on a number of things and I doubt he would of lasted a full term much less two. I feel the same way about his son who I have a lot of respect for.
@@markgorenshtein1946 he definitely would have lasted to terms if he touted the success of social programs and singed the civil rights act

Appreciate your look at people's platforms in the different elections; very interesting, thanks✔️
I'm glad you went for Stevenson in 1956. In that election he was vastly underrated. He was looking to the future--Ending A-bomb testing, lowering the U.S./U.S.S.R. tension, universal income. De4spite the warning Ike gave four years later, he just watched the military/industrial complex grow and grow.
Plus Ike, like Truman, was a proponent of Domino theory and American foreign intervention which, at the very least, caused the grow of the very same military industrial complex he spoke against.
Thank you for the kind comments! This was a creative idea for a video and it was a-lot of fun in the live chat :)

I believe every single American high school student should do this exercise. It's essential to understand history and your own views.
Should be in civics classes.
No they probably shouldn’t. To make an informed pick you’d have to know what each candidate stood for and that would mean spending a disproportionate amount of time educating children about the views and ideology of figures who aren’t that important in a high school level education. This would be an exercise better suited to college level studies as I don’t think high school students need to know every single losing candidate to every single election.
@@thevaultofwisdom1242 I agree with this, You could make an entire college course out of this idea, however I think it would be a good exercise for high school students in a limited capacity however, choose one or two elections per marking period (9 weeks at my high school) and do those. I think it would of been a really cool idea for my AP US history class in high school.
Roosevelt might have entered the war sooner. Wilson passed many useful reforms and had more planned. Charles Evans Hughes would have been more level headed on foreign policy.
Wilson was certainly racist but so was most of society. Hughes wanted fairer treatment for Afro Americans but certainly didn't regard them as equals.
Good Stuff Mr B. I love your work.
I think an interesting option for the election of 1920 that didn't get mentioned in the stream would be Parley Christensen of the farmer-labor party. After WW1 agriculture was hit by lower wages and prices which would have hurt a lot of people who lived off of that out west. I feel like I would have been sympathetic to that cause even though their party wasn't super popular in 1920. Christensen was a form member of Teddy's Progressive Party as well. If I had been voting from my home state of Montana back then, I feel that would have been my choice. Kinda like a precursor to the 1924 election bid of Robert La Follette and his running mate, Burton K. Wheeler (then senator from Montana).

@Mr. Graves cool

@Mr. Graves legend, thank you
@Maximus Yagdulas There's also a book called "The President Is Dead!" by Louis L. Picone and it goes into extraordinary detail about every president's death, funeral, and burial. It also goes in order of their deaths (e.g. Washington first, Jefferson Second)

Interesting, but I was hoping you would break down their platforms and explain why specifically you would have supported them. I’ve been looking for something that examines the platforms of each president and can’t find anything. Even individual documentaries don’t tend to focus on their full platforms. I think that’s something where I would not only learn history I’m unaware of and see how things have evolved, but would also learn about different issues and help clarify my positions. I had this thought when researching Teddy Roosevelt. He’s always been my favorite personality wise, and I love his strength of character, his stand on corruption and equality, and his balanced view on conservation. Additionally, I think he was progressive on racial issues for his time. What’s left out of the discussion today is that even science in his time supported the racial hierarchy theory. I was surprised, however, with things like his supporting the New Manifest Destiny (not to be confused with the original) his objections to free trade, and his position on big government. I hadn’t realized there were major ideological differences beyond racial hierarchy. Still admire him, and given the competition would probably have voted for him, but his ideology is not as closely aligned with mine as I’d thought. I think it would be interesting to find the president I most closely align with.

In 1968 I came from school and there on the corner of 168th st and Prospect avenue in the Bronx standing on a platform speaking to a crowd of mostly people of color was Robert Kennedy. I walked right up to the stage. No one stopped me. There he was, 4 feet away. The crowd loved him! He was special. It didn't feel or sound like a politician. It was a feeling I can't explain to this day. I was 18, not old enough to vote in those days. He was different and that crowd knew it. Not long after he was gone. It still makes me sad. He was SPECIAL!
The Admiral Stockdale VP debate performance was one of the most hilarious things I've ever seen. He wasn't adequately prepped and used a hearing aid which was picking up a ton of interference, so you have to feel for the guy. He was asked a question and the camera switched to his podium and he wasn't there! (walking around trying to get away from the electronic interference). At other times Gore and Quayle were talking and Stockdale could be seen walking around behind them. In response to one journalist's question he said "I'm all out of ammo on that one"... sadly he's not alone in uninformed candidates in modern times, however.
I've been reading about the presidential history since I was 8 years old. I'm now 59, and enjoy your UA-cam sessions...
Thanks.

Very interesting this video as I am a South Korean foreigner.Once I visited Netherlands to have time with my Dutch friends. I love too much Netherlands and Dutch people . .
Much thanks to this video,

Absolutely Amazing. TY
This is next level dedication because you really have to imagine yourself in context.
This is a really cool video and exercise but I feel like it's tainted by modern day bias, like how would he know if he would be against slavery or indian removal back in the 1800s?
@@dr.aisaitl7439 It’s not perfect but still interesting none the less
Would you consider doing a video on the best candidates who LOST the Presidency (and never won at a later election) and what were their proposals? Thomas Dewey, Adlai Stevenson, George Clinton, etc. ?
Yes!
My personal picks: Walter Mondale, William Jennings Bryan, Adlai Stevenson, Henry Clay, Bob Dole, Wendell Willkie, John Fremont and Daniel Webster.
And for ppl who lost in the primaries: Robert Kennedy, Eugene Mcarthy, Ron Paul, Rand Paul, Tulsi Gabbard, Andrew Yang, Jesse Jackson, Al Smith,
I wanted Ronald to win all 50 states but I would feel kind of Feel bad for Mondale Or anyone that doesn’t win a state.
Mondale

Though I find myself occasionally disagreeing (sometimes vehemently), this whole stream is a great testament to free thought and rational discussion.
I am so happy that I found your channel!
For me, the biggest what-could-have-beens (Besides the obvious Lincoln serving out his full term) are Garfield not being assassinated, and Henry Wallace staying FDR's Vice President and taking over when he died.
i always wondered what a Wallace presidency would be like
Chad Henry Wallace > virgin incel George Wallace
I disagree. Truman was an amazing president and Wallace, while he would have been a good president domestically, was extremely naive to the threat of the Soviet Union. He would not have stood up to them the way he would need to. Wallace even admitted this himself later in his life that he was foolishly optimistic on the soviets.
Henry Wallace ❤

This guy deserves 1m subs💯💯
This is a really neat concept you came up with almost like the fine brothers inventing reaction videos
This is a bold move to do on your part. I'm so proud of you!
Love this stream. Best 3 1/2 hours I've ever spent.
The Roosevelt v Hoover one made me laugh because it reminded me of what my dad always said: "There's a reason they call vacuum cleaners hoovers. It's because they suck!"
lol yeah not a Hoover fan. Thanks for the kind words!
Speaking of Bobby Kennedy, I feel like a 1968 election between him and George Romney would have been one of those years where it would have been hard to choose one over the other since they would have been great candidates.
Kind of like 1952 and 1956, where Americans both liked Ike and Stevenson, but Ike won those elections.
You should do a more cut down version of this video too. Really like your content
Fun fact: there’re were only 10 times when an incumbent potus AND vp both got reelected
1792: Washington/Adams

Wow Nixon appeared twice on the list. He must be more of a hard worker than any president in history.
@@Joe-sd2kx How's Joe Biden doing
@@Polavianus you don't wanna know.
So the other presidents who got re-elected ALL switched VPs?
@@Polavianus Great. Best president since Eisenhower.
This is the first time I have watched you but I'll say this, I can tell how you acted in this vid that you do truly try your best unbiased. Great content
I voted for Mondale in 1984, but as my best friend at the time put it, if he had been in any danger of winning, I might have thought twice about it. I did support Gary Hart in the Virginia Democratic caucus I attended (that was before the Donna Rice scandal broke).
When i was in Elementary School we had a collection of books in our library on each & every United States President up to Clinton or maybe GWB, i read them all love your content Mr. Beat
I’ve read tons of presidential history books and watched many documentaries, and you sir rank as the best presenter of the subject.
Do you have any specific recommendations? I love Presidential history
I'm in my 60's and a history buff, I found this exercise fascinating . Try as you might though, you did inject today's values in some of your choices for president. Great job in any case!!! I enjoyed watching very much!!
* Since this is an older video, I hope this is a way you'd see my comment.
I love your videos, someone who graduated in 2012 from Southern Virginia, I feel like I learn more from you than I did in school. You dumb it down for us, like you explain the pro's and con's of who'd you vote for. I honestly would love a video of you explaining how/why Republicans became Democrats and vice-versa. It just always amazed me how a Lincoln Republican turned into Nixon Republican. Since your a teacher I know you'd explain it in a way I could grasp.
I’m normally a policy guy and hate that people vote on personality so much, but the one guy who I’d have voted for, more for his personality than his policies, was Teddy Roosevelt. I love that guy, haha! Funny enough, I’d have voted for Calvin Coolidge 12 years later, who was almost the exact opposite of Teddy.
Hey, Mr. Beat, I love these super long vids you do. I play them and listen to them while I work. I know you've gotta be busy and have a lot of plans, but please do more of these!
Mr. Beat always makes me smile with his passion and joy :)
@Vlogging Through History, you should make a video like this!
Your channel is awesome
FDR: *breaks historical precedent of being elected more than 2 times*
The people: Jokes on you, I’m into that shit
Yes, but how? Let's get into those details
This is the content we need
Dear Mr. Beat.
As I am writing this on my day, now watching 5 of your videos.today.
And yes, Before viewing this one.
Speculations in history are fanciful
and fascinating to how we look back into that which is written.
But dear Sir, how are we not affected by either inside political ignorance, VS how
The deep secrets from which still only the last 100 plus years are continuing the very definition in the subterfuge that are barnacles upon this American Empire.
George McGovern is my guy!! Greetings from South Dakota!
I always felt like doing this (not as a video tho) but I didn’t really know too much about different presidential candidates from particularly the 19th century, thanks!
Wow this was before I knew mr beat lol
Although more often than not I didn't agree with your selections (at least since 1872 or so), I found this incredibly informative and unbiased. Well done sir. I certainly didn't expect to watch to the end, but you held my attention.
Also, stay cool with Coolidge!
Thanks for your knowledge.
Love this love casters too nice vid-plutto
Ross perot was a very interesting candidate, he was pro choice, he wanted more gun control including an assault weapon ban and he wanted to raise taxes on the rich, and he was still considered to be the most conservative candidate in the 92 election by many people it's a stark contrast to american politics today.
Perot didn't just want to raise taxes on the rich. He proposed increasing the federal tax on gasoline by a whopping 50 cents per gallon. Hence, he wanted to increase taxes on everyone.
Thank you for voting for me at least once Mr.Beat!
Heck yeah
I voted for you man in both elections i was still alive for those days

People are so left and right its good too see a mix of both
The heck with partisanship!
@@iammrbeat I agree. Not that we should all be centrists, but we shouldn't be partisan hacks.
Democrats and Republicans are just two sides of the same bankers' Hegelian Dialectic coin
If you believe in certain things it makes sense to vote for people who claim to want those things. Ideological consistency isn’t necessarily being partisan. Partisanship is following the party no matter what.
@@Prodigi50 yeah
Ulysses S. Grant truly is one of the more underrated Presidents. What I feel is important to mention here that wasn’t, was the fact that the Lost Cause crushed much of Grant’s legacy and notoriety. For someone so monumental in American history, his place in it is largely forgotten.
He oversaw the most corrupt presidency in US history, and this corruption directly led to several market crashes and economic crises.
what’s the lost cause
@@bruv718 “The Lost Cause Narrative” was a post-Civil War narrative concocted by southerners to make their involvement in the Civil War seem less egregious. They downplayed the war being about slavery and more about being state’s rights. Grant’s legacy was largely denigrated by subscribers to this narrative.
@@nepatrul6075 Well Grant also had a very corrupt and inept administration. They did nothing about Black Friday lol (not what we know as Black Friday today).
Custers last stand and the battle of wounded knee! That made him good? Wow?
I have already seen this video and for some reason it just came on again for like the second time now that I'm watching it and for some reason I can't turn it off it's too good

Big fan here from UK. I was gonna watch live but time difference was night here, so I'm watching now over a few days. Love the videos. We've been studying American history for a few years and finally today got my grade back. grade 9 (A* or A+) I'm not sure how you call it in the states .Your content is very helpful so thank you very much Sir.
Mr. Beat your channel has taught me so much. kinda makes me want to become a history teacher lol
Thank you for sharing. 🌹🎋
I would’ve voted for Theodore Roosevelt both in 1904 and 1912! That dude was awesome!
The first time I ever voted was for Jimmy Carter in 1976 (I was 19 years old). I had grown up in the South in a fairly conservative Christian home; but had become increasingly liberal in college. Carter really inspired me in 1976 - he was a strong evangelical Christian with a centrist economic approach and a progressive social and foreign policy agenda. He inherited stagflation and an energy crisis from his Republican predecessors, along with a disillusioned populace suffering from both the post-watergate and post-Vietnam War syndrome. Simply put, he was elected President at a very difficult moment in history. But the economy DID improve under Carter, and he had some major foreign policy accomplishments - from the Panama Canal Treaty to the Camp David Peace Accords. He helped to positively transform the image of the US in the eyes of the world with his unprecedented emphasis on human rights rather than the Machiavellian dirty tricks of previous Cold War administrations. He was a breath of fresh air.
Don't forget that Carter got Gen. Zia to assassinate Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, Pakistan's first and only democratically elected Prime Minister. How Christian of him!
I am just like you but younger
These viewers are all patriots and I believe like you Mr Bean "Freedom Fighters for our great country like Springsteen songs "I Was Born In The USA!" 😘😭🤳❤️ Our Viet Nam Vets were the Warriors of our time. They fought a worthless war and one was my husband James Edward McLaud a USA Navy Seal and Black Burae. A new recruit,a young new sailor was afraid to go to the front line. Jim saw the fear in his eyes and volunteered to go in his place,but the Commander held Jim back. When only the Commander returned from Saigon, Jim asked "Where s the team?" The officer said that they all died. Jim hit the officer in the jaw therefore putting Him in the brig For 3.5 years. Jim spent his military time painting the walls in the prison walls so he wouldn t go insane. He was given a less than Honorable Discharge,which made him angry. When I heard Him was a Marshall Artist" I called his Commander and after telling him what Jim went through he changed his award as an excellent caring seal to an " Honorable Discharge." Jim when he died had the 21 gun salute and the American red flag draped over his casket to declare him a Viet Nam War Veteran with all the honors he died for. He told me it was a war we should never had entered. We had no right to meddle in their affairs.This is what Jim believed in. He died at the age of 66 with Pancreatic cancer in 2009AD. Thanks men like Jim a warrior they got their freedom. Our men returned with PTSD and felt empty inside. Johnny Wall was Jim s best friend and his name is the first casualty s name on the wall.
*coughs in inflation*
Exactly, and it’s for the same reasons that some people disliked him. but they’ll say it’s because he handled the Iranian hostage crisis poorly. Definitely onne of the most humble and morally upstanding Presidents we’ve ever had.
