The Executive Branch Part 2: How a President is Elected and Removed from office
US History Repeated
History Repeated discusses important historical and political concepts that are essential to understanding and discussing U.S. history and politics. Topics and concepts that you should have learned in school, but weren’t interested at the time. History isn’t boring, but is often discussed with a political slant or bias. Our goal is to provide our listeners with the facts. Our podcasts avoid pushing a political agenda. We believe people are tired of being told what and how to think about a topic. Listen to the information provided, take your time to decide where you fall on the issue. Being informed is essential.
