DB Comedy Presents THE ELECTABLES

President 25 - William McKinley

Episode Summary

We wrap up the 19th Century on DB COMEDY PRESENTS THE ELECTABLES with a Ohioan (another one? ANOTHER one?!?) who parlayed his boring exterior and wealthy pals to begin The American Century of economic and industrial and imperial power (oops - said the quiet part out loud!) with that red, white, and blue cloak we've all come to know and love. He's a yawn but an important yawn, he's William McKinley, and he's this episode's President!
