La Follette deserves a third term.

Really don't want La Follette as President during World War I.

Henry Ford wasn't really a Republican.  When he ran for the Senate in Michigan in 1918, he ran as a Democrat.

Anyway, I don't know how I'd vote.  Maybe Hughes or Smith.  TR would be good, too.  I really don't want La Follette serving more than two terms.

La Follette/Senator George Norris of Nebraska. Dump Cummins for running against La Follette.

Will you vote for him over the racist Democrat in the general?

To be fair, at least two of the Democrats running are objectively racist.

I'm thirding Norris for VP. LaFollette/Norris would be an awesome ticket.

So are we just going to wait this out until the Democrats have their runoff and the Socialists and Prohibitionists finish voting?

Not all Southern Democrats were racists or segregationists, at least by the 50s and 60s.

Also not all of them were, even before then.

I understood that Huey Long was a segregationist, even if he was left-wing for his time on most other issues.

You admit, then, that segregationism is a right-wing policy?
