    Alexander Graham Bell has the first patent on Telephones in the US and out of it we got the Bell System. We had telegraphs, but those were replaced by the Telephone system. We've never had a bunch of small local telephone companies. Closest to that was the 1984 break up into 22 separate entities.

      That's what radio is, that's what it does. Because so many people have radios, they listen to the radio. Norman Vincent Peale, I went to his church, to Marble Collegiate Church in New York. He went on the radio, he was very big on radio. Where he had a very famous ministry. And sold many books. About the POWER of positive thinking. FDR, he would go on the radio a lot, he called it his fireside chat. And it worked amazingly for him, he got elected 3 times, even with all the terrible things that happened during his reign. Hitler, he had TV, he was one of the first with TV. But he was HUGE on the radio, that was how he became a very big thing. And I had a lot of fun with Howard Stern, that really got my name out, you know? So every week I'm doing what I call my Weekly Address. Where I tell the American people what the hell is going on!
