My America - Chapter 491
Roosevelt and Taft were friends for a long time. How much did Roosevelt support Taft? The so-called deep friendship, just Roosevelt think so?
Was it because Roosevelt had brought Taft off, so let Taft follow Roosevelt’s plan to make string puppets? The last one who did this was Mark Hannah and William McKinley. It may be William McKinley ’s good old character, which led to the harmony with Mark Hannah and gave Roosevelt an illusion that he could also make a puppet. come out.
However, Sheffield knew something about this matter. In the end, Taft and Roosevelt parted ways, which led to the split of the Republican Party and gave the Democratic Party a chance to overturn. According to Sheffield’s previous ideas, she did not fully grasp the absolute jump and interfered with the established facts in history.
Therefore, for Sheffield to come to power with more certainty in the Democratic Party, it seems that she should not be concerned about the elections and just be her own king. But that was before, and now the slave owners already want to try, in the end, can they successfully trip.
If you can win, you should win this time, and you ca n’t and do n’t want to wait for the next time. If you lose, you can use it as an excuse to comfort yourself.
Can’t wait for the next time, this time we have to find a way to overthrow the Republican rule. The president takes turns to do it and it’s time to change to Democrats.
“It looks like you are sure this time?” Evelyn gave Sheffield a blank look. She also knew that her man really wanted to get the Democratic Party to come to power once, and it almost became a heart disease. Now it seems that the success rate of this matter Quite big?
“No!” As Evelyn expected, Sheffield simply chose whether or not to continue. “How can there be a 100% success in this kind of election? Otherwise, I will choose it myself and do it on the first day.” President, it ’s better to be Augustus the next day. Is n’t this better? It can only be said that the last election is more likely than the last one. “
The last time was considered a defeat. For Roosevelt chose a son of a war hero during the war, and has the attributes of the second generation of officials, Sheffield naturally understands what to think. If this time the Republican Party actively mentioned the Civil War to pull hatred, it can prove The slave owner’s guess is correct.
Mentioned that the civil war consolidated the basics, offset the Democratic Party ’s high white supremacy, and used regional conflicts to hedge racial conflicts. Because of the economic downturn, the civic class is not as good as before. Let ’s talk about harmony and prosperity. There is a meaning of standing and talking without back pain, which is not attractive to voters.
Manipulating geographical contradictions can consolidate the basics. It should be understood that the number of Yanji people far exceeds the Dixie people, half of the country’s population is in the north, and even more. To consolidate the basics, the election will not be very stressful for the Republican Party.
Of course, this is also a dark guess by the slave owners, and there is no real evidence, but even if it appears, it is quite normal. There are a lot of scumbags in the election, which is not a bright thing.
“Ah, it’s election again.” With this whisper, Natalia’s beautiful shadow floated in, and just heard the conversation between the two. She didn’t care about the result of the election. She lost or won. She has no influence. But her man cared so much, she also pretended to be concerned.
“Yeah, it’s election again.” How could Sheffield not know her woman? She accepted this pretending concern, and at the same time responded to the pretentious response of pretending concern. She reached out and pinched Natalia’s nose. He said, “This time is a great opportunity to overthrow the Republican Party. Roosevelt, the great president, should withdraw from the stage of history, and find a place to retreat. We are a free country, and we don’t need a strong president.”
Regarding Taft, which was introduced by Roosevelt, Sheffield remembered that this candidate was actually a conservative and free from the progressives led by Roosevelt. The judges are so stubborn. Acceptance of new ideas is not very efficient,
Although Roosevelt said that Taft was the most suitable person to be president in the country, Taft was conservative, indecisive, incapable of controlling the Republican Party, and could not smoothly reconcile hostile parties within the party; he lacked political skills and was not clever To cover up the close relationship with the monopoly capitalist, but to implement a series of naked extreme, conservative policies; he has no independent ideological and political line, although completely obeyed the old routine of the former president, but he lacks the talent of old Roosevelt. Therefore, almost every major decision of the Taft government inevitably caused fierce quarrels.
If we say that Taft has any original means, it is not without it. Jin Yuan Diplomacy is the innovation of this president. In the name of assistance, he develops the resources of other countries. This method not only goes out of the United States, but also rushes out of the world. This has caused countries to follow suit and can be said to have done a far-reaching thing.
Coincidentally, Alton Parker, supported by Sheffield, is also interested in the position of the highest judge, far greater than the judge on the throne of the president. If there is no surprise, this national election will be a confrontation between the two judges.
“Go back to our country and talk to our candidates.” Sheffield ordered the vacation in Puerto Rico to end directly.
The candidates on the Democratic Party are still old. William McKinley, who has supporters in the Midwest, and Alton Parker, who is widely welcomed in the South, have achieved great results. They faced the Republican Party ’s national elections three times recently and scored zero. Bisan’s achievements really only allowed the slave owner to cover up his inner pain with a smile.
As for the other side, the noise within the Republican Party is still very large. Roosevelt’s two terms of office offended all large enterprises. Since the Civil War, the Republican Party and the northern large enterprises have a harmonious relationship and the two sides have long-term cooperative relations. After two terms, Republicans who have friendly relations with big companies complained to Roosevelt himself.
As early as the financial crisis at the end of last year, she had discussed with Rockefeller Jr. and Morgan Jr. in Sheffield, New York, and could no longer stand Roosevelt and the people Roosevelt might support came to power. With this vaccination, the major companies of course are trying their best to support their candidates and squeeze out Taffe supported by Roosevelt.
At the last minute, out of a long-term cooperative relationship with the Republican Party, these big companies still wanted to join forces to save the Republican Party, and the attacks and accusations within the Republican Party have intensified.
At this time, Sheffield had just arrived in New Orleans, and was also preparing to discuss with the candidates on the Democratic Party about the general election. But first, the primary election within the Democratic Party should start.
The slave owners felt that this was not a big problem. In fact, in terms of their respective basics, it was like the number of Yankees in the north, which was crushing to the Dixie people in the south. On the Democratic side, the Dixie people in the south have an overwhelming advantage over the citizens of the Midwest United States, and Alton Parker and William McKinley each represent the South and Midwest supporters of the Democratic Party.
“Mr. Judge, what do you think of Taft?” Sheffield did not let Alton Parker come to New Orleans again. On the contrary, this time he took the initiative to come to the door. The relationship between the gold master and the candidate is a cooperative relationship, and It is not an affiliate relationship, and the courtesy is very legitimate.
“He was a very good judge. His previous ability to contact him was mainly focused on the rule of law. The reason why he was willing to be the governor of the Philippines was when President McKinley agreed to nominate him as the highest judge.” Alton Parker smiled Laughing and talking about his own impression of Taft, “Unlike Roosevelt, he is a judge who respects the rules of all parties and always reminds himself to find a valid reason to do things.”
Sheffield nodded clearly, the establishment, another name for the vested interests. In the following generations, the original intention of the Republican establishment is to refer to the more traditional and moderate conservatives in the Republican Party. They have long held greater power in the Republican Party. Out of political considerations, he is willing to make more compromises and concessions to maintain his position. It is believed that the political ideas of the conservatives have been lost too much.
History is really changing the story of what happened in the past. In this era, the Democratic Party represents conservative, the Republican Party represents progress, and the concept exchanges a hundred years later. It seems that nothing has changed.
“If he is willing to lose to us, this Supreme Judge’s nomination, we can also give him the same.” Sheffield laughed dumbly, just saw Alton Parker’s wife squatting coffee, the two sides smiled friendly, “It seems this time It should be a duel between the two judges. Although the opposition within the Republican Party is fierce, Roosevelt ’s two terms are not what the big enterprise spokespersons can prevent. You need to prepare early. “
For Alton Parker, Sheffield analyzed the current strength comparison within the Republican Party. Without Roosevelt, the progressives may not necessarily win steadily, but with the current president, the strength comparison is more unbalanced.
Alton Parker nodded and said that he thought so too, jokingly, “Your time for this event can be much earlier than the last election.”
“Well, yes!” Sheffield leaned back on the chair, her hands crossed and dragged her head back, her face dignified. “I want to overthrow the Republican Party. I can’t continue this way. I myself and the Democrats are the same. Need a hearty victory to change the situation that was suppressed after the Civil War, I want a hearty victory, whether it is a universal vote or an electorate vote, I have to win, so everyone has nothing to say. “
“This time we are going to make a comeback. I want to restore the strong position of the Democratic Party. I don’t care how to win, but I want to win.”
Twelve years of emotional outbursts shocked Alton Parker, but as a judge, he has seen many similar scenes and said softly, “Our purpose is the same, this time we want to defeat the Republican Party.”
