I’ll pass if I want to know anything about Hamilton I will go read Forrest McDonalds’s book or Ron Cherow’s book on Hamilton.

I don’t go to musicals to learn history or in the case of Cats biology!

Look. I generally dislike musicals, but Hamilton really is special. It really is different, and it really is a patriotic show. It really is NOT abut race or left-wing obsessions or even about "Federalism," as it was. It's about Hamilton and Burr and Washington. It's about New York, and the Skyler sisters, and a young America. CATS, by the way, is about T S ELIOT's lyricism, which are brilliant, which is why it really is (or was) so good. I believe in a few good shows, and I believe in Free Republic, and I really do believe that if you expose yourself to Hamilton, you'll be glad you did.
