I'll do the pre-democratic elections tomorrow Smiley

I would have supported the Democrats during the Civil War for several different reasons.
The main one is that I would have blamed Lincoln for starting it...

That might well be true, but they still were a bunch of Southern aristocrats keeping slaves!

The Northern Democrat's were Southern Aristocrat's???

I've just realized that I'm the only person to have voted for Bryan all 3 times...
What have you all got against him?
C'mon what's wrong with the "Cross of Gold" speech?

And you can't justify it with the Scopes trial. That came later.

They supported the war but thought that Lincoln was mismanaging it.
And opposed the excesses of Sherman et al.

Quote from: Lewis Trondheim on January 28, 2004, 07:12:53 AM

It was 1896, and I was just sixteen
And Altgeld ruled in Springfield Illinois
When there came from the sunset Nebraska's shout of joy
In a coat like a deacon's, in a black stetson hat
He scourged the elephant plutocrats
With barbed wire from the Platte
The scales dipped from their mighty eyes
They saw that summer's noon
a tribe of wonders dancing (?) to a marching tune
O the jayhawks of Kansas
O the longhorns of Texas
(There follows a rather imaginative list of state animals that I can't remember in detail)
Of all the newborn states a-row
Bidding the eagles of the west fly on,
Bidding the eagles of the west fly on

That what you meant?

Yep Wink
Thing is, Bryan, the Greenbacks and the Free Silver lot, were right about Gold.
Pity it took the Depression to make everyone else realize it...

The person I am today would have voted for the same candidate that Vermont voted for in every presidential election.

Against FDR??
