Ok, fine, Norm Thomas to end the recession!

Better?

The Debs-Stedman recession was ended in 1930. Read the OP.

We all know Cath is rather biased towards Socialists, so I take what he says about them with a grain of salt. Hell, the only thing he said about F-Doug was that some of his policies were allegedly unconstitutional.

I actually quite like Douglass. However, given lack of familiarity with what his policies might have been, I was intentionally vague. I made some quick assumptions that he might have enforced certain civil rights and anti-Klan acts with a certain amount of vigor, and therefore earned the ire of the Bourbon Democrats and such.

His policies definitely included having the best hair of any President, narrowly beating Reuben Fenton.

I confess, I'm unfamiliar with the various personalities and nuances of the CPUSA.

Yes the exclusion of the communists Is a great tragedy caused by a coalition of bourgeois parties and the so called socialists who are in reality revisionist class traitors.

I go with the Dream Team of Coolidge and Pinchot.  Of course, it will be a landslide for Smith due to the nature of this forum.

If Smith wins, we can have 3 terms of FDR. If Thomas wins, we can have 2 terms of Thomas and 2 terms of FDR.

Oh, it'd be fantastic if it were a landslide for Smith (or for Coolidge for that matter). However, I fear we are treading much closer to danger than that.

Personally, a pessimist, so I believe Smith will pull it out in the end. Thomas '32 and FDR '40!

Shouldn't you, as the person running these things, maintain some objectivity?

Better still we could reelect Smith, have three terms of FDR, and have a strong economy (as opposed to one on life support).

Not sure how the '29 recession constitutes a strong economy...
