In this piece from Robert Klein's 1986 HBO stand-up special, he takes the audience on a comedic journey through our political history from founding father George Washington to man on the moon Neil Armstrong, throwing in a little corruption on the way.

Comedy legend Robert Klein, the first comedian to have an HBO stand-up special in the 1970s, takes the stage for his 3rd special in LIVE ON BROADWAY. Klein is often cited by Jerry Seinfeld, Bill Maher and many others as the comedians' comedian. Klein brought his intellect to his comedy material, but managed to make it palatable and funny. He was also known for his musicianship, playing his harmonica and belting out great music that happened to be funny.
