why is this congress so insulated from public opinion? >> i think they produced a level of caucus discipline, that is essentially unprecedented in modern times, and i think political scientists, such as yourself, have shown that. have done the analysis to show the level of party-line voting in caucus. unity is unprecedented. we've moved toward the sort of parliamentary system. the other thing i think is important to think about is the difference between rules and norms and how they guide a legislative body. the rules say one thing. the norms say the other. there's a body of things that just aren't done that can be as powerful in the force of prohibition as a rule that says it hasn't been done. one of the things the republic chance have been entrepreneurs in, incredibly pioneering is breaking those norms. things that just weren't done, they just do and say, what's up, what are you going to do? tom delay, we saw the redistricting, iconic example of this. no one wrote a rule saying you can't redistrict me in an election, it's the norm. the c

yet he often held his own in the halls of congress. a fact that distinguished him from so many other frontiers. remarkably he enjoyed fraternizing with men of power and prestige in the fancy parlors of philadelphia and new york. crockett was like none other, 19th century enigma. he fought under andrew jackson and the ruinous indian wars, all the later to become jackson's bitter foe on the issue of indian -- the issue of removal of indian tribes and their homeland. crockets contradictions extended beyond politics. he had only a few months of formal education, yet he read of it and the bard. he was neither a buffoon nor a great intellect, but a man who was always evolving on the stage of a nation in its adolescence, a pioneer in his dreams of an breakfast nation with the gays but toward the west. perhaps more than any one of his time davey crockett was arguably our first celebrity hero, inspiring people with his own time as well as a 20th-century generation. a man, david crockett, may have perished on march 61836 in the final assault on
