Franklin D. Roosevelt, one of the shrewdest politicians ever to occupy the White House, once used his famous Scottie to pound the hell out of his political opponents during one of his reelection campaigns. The âFala Speechâ remains one of the most famous of FDRâs many memorable addresses. Carried over national radio as Roosevelt addressed a gathering of labor leaders, FDR indignantly informed his audience that the Republicans were accusing him of having left Fala stranded on an island in the Aleutians and had sent a ship to retrieve him at a cost of millions to the taxpayers.

About âStay Aliveâ. Historically, this song is out of place in the timeline given by the show. It jumps back almost three years from Hamiltonâs wedding (1780) to the Continental Armyâs winter at Valley Forge (1777-78), the Battle of Monmouth (1778), and the Lee-Laurens duel (1779). However, narratively, âStay Aliveâ helps turn the story back to the high-stakes severity of the war, while also giving Hamilton more personal high stakes in Eliza. Creative license, man. Itâll getcha where you need to go. Here, we see that Hamilton is eager to prove his worth to Washington and seeks his own command.
