- 2000 Republican National Convention
Here it is folks — the official website of the 2000 Republican National Convention in Philadelphia. Stay on top of all the proceedings at the convention and around town with this enormous resource. You can also sign up as a "Dot Com Delegate" — allowing you access to even more interviews, videos, photos, and a GOP screensaver! You'll love the dancing elephant!
- "The Miracle at Philadelphia"
Wendell Willkie was such an unlikely candidate that when he captured the Republican nomination in 1940, pundits referred to it as "The Miracle at Philadelphia." Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending!), Willkie would go on to defeat at the hands of Franklin D. Roosevelt. The marriage of Willkie and the GOP was never a comfortable one — learn more about this tenuous relationship at this page.
- Ulysses S. Grant Homepage
Anything and everything you have ever wanted to know about this war hero and Republican President.

Get photos, writings, and more and learn about his friends, foes, and family here. You can even view an image of his death mask! (Or not — your choice!)

The Cable Satellite Public Affairs Network — or just C-SPAN, if you prefer — has created this webpage as an archive of all of its on-air events leading up to and covering the 2000 Republican National Convention. You won't want to miss the recent edition of "Washington Journal" featuring an interview with Philadelphia's own Ralph Archbold as Benjamin Franklin. Check here often for the latest convention news.
