 First, we're joined by Dr. Joseph Postel. He is associate professor of politics here at Hillsdale College. Dr. Postel, thanks for joining us. Great to be with you. Talking as the Republican National Convention is about to begin here in 2024 and thought it would be a good conversation to talk about the history of political conventions here in the United States and how they've changed, adjusted through the years. How do we begin? How do political conventions get their start here in the U.S.?
