The Election of 1800
Can we get back to politics?
Please?
Yo…
Every action has its equal opposite reaction
John Adams shat the bed.
I love the guy,
but he's in traction
Poor Alexander Hamilton,
he is missing in action
So now I'm facing-
Aaron Burr!
With his own faction
He's very attractive in the North,
New Yorkers like his chances
He's not very forthcoming on any particular stances
Ask him a question: it glances off,
he obfuscates, he dances
And they say I'm a Francophile,
at least they know I know where France is!
Thomas, that's the problem; see,
they see Burr as a less extreme you
Ha!
You need to change course,
a key endorsement might redeem you
Who did you have in mind?
Don't laugh
Who is it?
You used to work on the same staff
Whaaaat?
It might be nice, it might be nice
To get Hamilton on your side
It might be nice, it might be nice
To get Hamilton on your side
Talk less! (Burr!)
Smile more! (Burr!)
Don't let them know what you're against or
what you're for! (Burr!)
Shake hands with him! (Burr!)
Charm her! (Burr!)
It's 1800; ladies,
tell your husbands, vote for Burr! (Burr!)
I don't like Adams! Well, he's gonna lose,
that's just defeatist
And Jefferson? In love with France! Yeah,
he's so elitist!
I like that Aaron Burr!
I can't believe we're here with him!
He seems approachable?
Like you could grab a beer with him
Dear Mr. Hamilton:
Your fellow Fed'ralists would like to know
how you'll be voting
It's quiet uptown…
Dear Mr. Hamilton:
John Adams doesn't stand a chance,
so who you are you promoting?
It's quiet uptown…
Jefferson or Burr? (Jefferson or Burr?)
We know, it's lose-lose (We know, it's lose-lose)
Jefferson or Burr? (Jefferson or Burr?)
But if you had to choose! (But if you had to choose!)
Dear Mr. Hamilton:
(Jefferson or Burr?) (Jefferson or Burr?)
John Adams doesn't stand a chance,
so who you are you promoting?
But if you had to choose!
Well, if it isn't Aaron Burr, sir
Alexander!
You've created quite a stir, sir
I'm going door to door!
You're openly campaigning?
Sure!
That's new
Honestly, it's kind of draining
Burr?
Sir?
Is there anything you wouldn't do?
No, I'm chasing what I want, and you know what?
What?
I learned that from you
If you had to choose, if you had to choose…
…It's a tie!
If you had to choose, if you had to choose…
It's up to the delegates!
If you had to choose, if you had to choose…
It's up to Hamilton!
If you had to choose, if you had to choose…
Jefferson or Burr? Jefferson or Burr?
Choose, choose, choose!
Yo (oh!)
The people are asking to hear my voice (oh!)
But the country is facing a difficult choice (oh!)
And if you were to ask me who I'd promote (oh!)
…Jefferson has my vote
(oh!)
I have never agreed with Jefferson once (oh!)
We have fought on like 75 different fronts (oh!)
But when all said and all is done…
Jefferson has beliefs; Burr has none
Ooooh!
Well, I'll be damned! Well, I'll be damned!
Hamilton's on your side
Well, I'll be damned! Well, I'll be damned!
And… you won in a landslide
Congrats on a race well-run
I did give you a fight
Uh-huh…
I look forward to our partnership
Our partnership?
As your vice president!
Yeah, right!
You hear this guy?
Man openly campaigns against me,
talking ‘bout "I look forward to our partnership!"
It is crazy that the guy
who comes in the second gets to be Vice President
OOOH! Y'know what, we can change that! Y'know why?
Why?
‘Cause I'M the president!
Burr…
When you see Hamilton, thank him for the endorsement
