America apparently wasn’t ready for a Catholic president in 1928,
Eh, if Al Smith was the Democratic nominee in 1932, he would have won easily. Even in 1928 Al Smith did much better in Northern urban areas than the previous two Democratic nominees did.

Funny enough, Hoover thought appointing a New York Jewish Democrat to the Supreme Court in 1932 could help him get re-elected.
