  1. Loved it, Ken! I've long been interested in the White House and its history. Thank you for all the time and work that went into this video. It was a pleasure to watch and listen to. Whatever one's politics the White House is a fascinating house. --- I've read that Abigail Adams hung up the washing to dry in one of the unfinished rooms of the mansion. I've also read that Mary Lincoln was doing some decorating during the Civil War and Abraham Lincoln' didn't approve of "...flubdubs for this damned old house". Jacqueline Kennedy did so much for the Executive Mansion, but the work she started continued after she left and was still being done by Pat Nixon. -- Some of the Tiffany interiors look absoutely...well, interesting...but it would have been something to see them in real life or in color photographs. --- BTW I was suprised to see at 7:26 a pair of menorahs of the Jewish faith on the mantelpiece. I wonder the story is behind them.
