1835: The First Presidential Assassination Attempt in the United States

What makes an assassin? Why does anyone make the decision to try and murder a president or political figure? And, why (other than ALL of the other problematic issues) President Andrew Jackson?

This week the ONUC gals discuss the first presidential assassination attempt in United States history. They dive into the psychology behind political assassins, who Richard Lawrence was, and what happens when you try to assassinate the infamous Stonewall Jackson and Representative Davy Crockett is a witness. Guys... you aren't prepared!
