00:44This is the perfect moment to do a film about Ben Franklin.
00:49This is a moment when many of us want to reframe.
00:54Our founders and to think about them during their lifetime.
00:59But also the way in which Ben Franklin translates in the 21st century.
01:04He's a flawed man.
01:07He enslaves people in his own house.
01:09And is very, very late, as far as I'm concerned, to the cause of abolition.
01:14But he does get there.
01:16And then he's the greatest diplomat in all of American history.
01:19Not only does he invent lightning rods and Franklin stoves, he...
01:24He invented a way to unite the colonies.
01:28And so I think he's a quintessential...
01:29American.
01:30Our new constitution is now established.
01:34Everything seems to promise it will be durable.
01:39He's certain, except death and taxes.
01:42And he does...
01:44All of this with a kind of wink.
01:45He knows his own foibles.
01:47He's trying to improve himself.
01:49And the example just comes down to us centuries later of what it's like to be a better...
01:54American.
01:59American.
02:00The country to boil.
02:02A stream.
02:03We're stronger than we talk.
02:04And he must have.
02:06We can understand.
02:07All of this in addition we have some new-cut chains at middoulin.
02:10But we're all who compton.
02:11Excellent!
02:12Here yeah.
02:13He oops.
02:14I'm alright.
02:15Here we go.
02:16Back in all the winter.
02:18Let's go back.
02:19Over our cars have a boost.
02:21canvas.
02:22I WARNK0
02:25It's not taken care of the cause we want.
