主要介绍H而不是创作过程。结构：以歌为小单元，串起不同主题感想。去到了真实历史遗迹、演员政客采访、后台庆功宴、开幕与白宫场情景，节奏很舒服。对H有美化，塑造了一个才华横溢、坚定执着、勇敢开创、感情充沛、激情澎湃的人，讲了一个典型的底层人通过自己努力rise up成为建国英雄的美国梦的故事。Indefatigable winner，who comes in with incredible confidence.
“It's so much the quintessential immigrant story, of redefining yourself when you come to a new place.” LMM很厉害的抓到了历史人物H的故事与现代社会矛盾热点&自己个人（&熟悉的人）身份经历的共同点，给创作和发行都找到了落脚点。
“Bringing out what is noble about the common tongue.”
H和B的结局在开头就告诉观众，让大家更关注两人关系变化的过程。
改编历史的过程：为了加快节奏把H第一次见3人放在一场戏里（他的I-want song）。历史人物被reinvent成为戏剧人物。“They are who they were, but they’re also who you want them to be. Just write the parts you think are musical.”
Urgency. High stake.
“The great people are also deeply flawed. ”华盛顿和杰弗森都蓄奴。
“If one’s worst act on our worst day is all you’re looking at, anyone could be a villain. It’s really about the totality of someone.” B不是坏人，他只是有很大的缺点。
H死亡的戏LMM共鸣切入点：我们在地球上有多少时间？我们不知道，所以我们恐惧地grapple with it. “The paradox of knowing tomorrow is not promised, but making plans anyway.”
