Prick the Balloon 22 - Rutherford B Hayes

The first in an occasional subseries about somewhat underrated presidents looks at Rutherford B Hayes. Certainly not a great commander in chief, but maybe one who deserves a little more respect than he gets these days.

Host Mike Vance Writer is the published author of 13 books with more on the way. He has written, produced and directed eight feature length history documentaries and over 150 short history films, and he sometimes teaches continuing studies in history at one of the country's highest rated private universities. He also headlined comedy clubs across North America for 16 years, so we'll keep things interesting.
