Fact vs. Fiction about President Warren G. Harding
www.hardinghome.org
4) Was President Harding a member of the Ku Klux Klan? Although he belonged to many fraternal organizations, he never was a Klansman. In 1922, the Klan spread the story that the president was a Klansman, and that allegation was published in newspapers across the country. The president adamantly denied the story. The Klan’s smear campaign seemingly was retribution for an October 1921 speech Harding gave in Birmingham, calling for an end to inequality between the races in regard to pslitical, economic and educational opportunities. The Klan also found that telling people the president was a Klansman was helpful in recruiting new members. The Klan was at the height of its popularity and membership in the early 1920s, with 4 million members and chapters in all 48 states.
And Hoover was the President during the Great Depression which had more to do with him losing the election than anything.
The “Fulfillment of White’s Prophecy” | US House of Representatives: History, Art & Archives
In his last speech on the House Floor, in 1901, George Henry White of North Carolina—the final Black lawmaker elected in the nineteenth century—had predicted the return of Black Members to Congress. Oscar De Priest arrived on Capitol Hill 28 years later. Six months before his election, the...history.house.gov
"Still, Hoover received between two-thirds and three-quarters of the black vote in northern urban wards."
As late as the mid-1930s, African American Republican John R. Lynch, who had represented Mississippi in the House during and after Reconstruction, summed up the sentiments of older black voters and upper middle-class professionals: “The colored voters cannot help but feel that in voting the Democratic ticket in national elections they will be voting to give their indorsement [sic] and their approval to every wrong of which they are victims, every right of which they are deprived, and every injustice of which they suffer.”
President Harding publicly condemns lynching | October 26, 1921 | HISTORY
On October 26, 1921, President Warren G. Harding delivers a speech in Birmingham, Alabama in which he condemns lynchings—extrajudicial murders (usually hangings) committed primarily by white supremacists against Black Americans in the Deep South and elsewhere. Although his administration was...

it's probable Harding was at the WH KKK event described by a Grand Wizard ... it was a rather infamous event
Klan events in DC were rather common in the 1920s
in Harding's favor - he wasn't near as bad a racist as Wilson, the dem who proceeded him, arguably the most racist post civil war president ... Warren didn't have much trouble getting the black vote. And didn't have any trouble selling out black interests like numbers banking and voting rights if he turned a buck. Harding was dumb and crooked as much as racist - his talk and no action allowed the disenfranchisement of millions
Hoover was nut case. His "southern strategy" is a big part of what is wrong with the GOP to this day
The Troubling Legacy of Herbert Hoover
Most people know Herbert Hoover as one of the worst presidents in the nation's history, a conservative Republican who led the country into the Great Depression. If they only knew the real impact ...

he deported a million plus Mexicans (Latinos really, anyone with a Hispanic name) and a large number of east europeans, mostly Jews, with little or no due process. His refusal to apply disaster relief equally cost too many lives in the after math of the Great Flood, and too many promises broken.
Harding and Hoover were worse than guilty of selling out the black vote

You do realize you linked a "new" source that supports my position?
What you're claiming was nowhere in the article unless I missed it. Can you point me to that part of the article?

Yep. We've got to dig deep talking about people who have been dead for almost a century. And even then he gets it wrong and we have to dumb down the conversation. These people are nuts and shills.

I bet you never imagined we'd have such historians posting about so much inaccurate shit from 100 years ago.
Besides, you've been banned elsewhere for far less.......

I was around then buddy and it was pretty unceremonious. And I recall you had a ton of posts and were one of the more active posters. But anyone could see you and Woody's Girl was never going to work out. Whatever makes you feel better....

Not true. We were happy as a clam until her mother (who may or may not have been Martin Lawrence in a fat suit) moved in.
start with The Fiery Cross, it's rather well documented
BTW, there are many historical records of Klan events in the DC in the 1920s
Harding's immigration policies were as racist as it gets - as were many judges he appointed
moreover, Harding, Coolidge, and Hoover never bothered to enforce civil rights
dude Wilson, Harding, Coolidge, and Hoover advocated eugenics, are you denying their complicity in Jim Crow?
are you saying the actions of these men didn't cost the GOP the black vote?

3 of our last 4 presidents dodged the draft to avoid Vietnam service and the 4th was too young to be drafted. Bill Clinton used a student deferment then went to England to protest the war. George Bush enlisted in the Air National Guard to avoid going to Vietnam. Trump had a medical deferment which was pretty easy to get. All you needed was a note from your doctor covering a whole slew of silly ailments including acne. On top of that, Al Gore the VP to draft dodger Bill Clinton, had his dad who was a senator keep him away from combat while he served. And then, Jimmy Carter pardoned all draft dodgers anyway. Unless you lived through that time then you really do not understand the mood of the country during the Vietnam war. But it is too bad Obama was too young to be drafted because it would have been interesting to see if he would have gone or found a way out as well.

I hate what has happened to the NFL. The clown at the top, Roger Goodell, should go down in NFL history as the worst commissioner they ever had. But they are paying him close to $50 million a year so he will be in the HoF after he is retired from his job.
but - none of them were flagrant tricks, the man is unfit
I did live through it
BTW, what about ism doesn't excuse this draft dodging trick, nor his supporters
