American politics has been called a two-party system. While there are two major parties today, and those two parties have been around a long time, they weren’t always the only two parties. 

In fact, there was a political party in the US that, took its name from a British political party, had four US presidents, and even held control of Congress for several years. 

Today, however, they are all but unknown to most people. 

Learn more about the Whig party, their rise, and fall, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
