A look at Garret Hobart, William McKinley's first Vice President who would be so influential and charming that he would sometimes be called the Assistant Vice President.  Convincing the President to go to war, taking care of Cabinet squabbles and entertaining important administration allies were among the services he performed.  Until his health caught up with him.   Interviews with Tim Pearson and Robert Merry.  Music by Chris Novembrino and Lee Rosevere.
