No way. Bryan finally wins in this scenario. Hoover was just too unpopular and the Depression was just too severe for him to beat any Democrat. Especially not by that kind of margin. Al Smith also would have crushed him in a rematch.

This is a Bryan 1928 scenario, which is more likely given his age

I'm confused because the title of the thread says 1932... And while he would have been 68, it's not out of the realm of possibility he could have run in that year if he made it that long.

I've gotten progressively dumber over the last few years. And it's absolutely possible he could run in 1928

Hoover had all of Bryan’s weaknesses and none of Bryan’s strengths. Bryan would win “dry” voters who stuck with Hoover in 1932.

Most Smith 1928 voters would sit out of the race
