On this week’s Florida History Podcast we were joined by MSNBC Contributor Fernand Amandi to talk about the legislative impact of Senator George Smathers who represented Florida in the US Senate from 1951 to 1968. His closeness to power is something no other Floridian has achieved – before or since.
