The Gilded Age in America from 1870-1893 was a time of dysfunctional government and deep partisan divide over such issues as international trade, monetary policy and foreign wars. Sound familiar? Three-term Speaker Thomas B. Reed, a staunch Republican from Maine, ungummed the government and broke the logjam. Reed's biographer, Jim Grant tells Jim Zirin how he did it.

Jim Grant is a great American and I hope one day serves as Chairman of the Federal Reserve. Ron Paul wants him! I want BOTH of them! Vote wisely!
