Thanks for the ping. A good read. I’ve never been a fan of Hamilton and consider his dual with Burr a fortunate event. It of course ended anything new Hamilton could say but it also ruined the future for Burr. Burr would have been happy in the District of Corruption as it exists today.
Tammany Hall existed before Burr, being founded in 1792. But it was Burr that vaulted Tammany into the Corruption Hall of Fame.
