I voted for one of our most underrated POTUS's, Silent Cal. Politicians tend to talk way too much these days. I would like more beef, and less empty calories in the words emanating from the class. We now have politicians like Palin that are almost entirely just junk food. Anyway, it is better to do not much, than do harm.

All the Republican choices are good, but Coolidge seems to be the only one who'll end Debs' disastrous economic policies.

You want to put in a man whose policies laid the foundation for the Great Depression?! Coolidge is the last person we want in the seat of the Presidency.

Many would dispute that, including Uncle Milty (Milton Friedman). We lacked skill in managing the money supply back then. We should put Ben Shalom Bernanke in a time machine to go back and redo it all, once the stock market crash happened.

You think Debs is doing harm?

He never had the power to do any harm, so no, he didn't.
