Underrated but one of the best.

************

Coolidge wasn’t bad, but the deflationary 1930’s would’ve destroyed his Presidency just like it destroyed President Hoover. Of course conservative economic idiologues see it differently, hence if we just deflated more of the economy:

Everything would of recovered quickly except for that SOB......FDR.

Coolidge was very likely the best President of the last 150 years. His legacy has been erased by the progressives on purpose - he ravaged them like none other.

That's why we have our own audio work about his life, and also discovered a second one around the same time(his auto). These exist for helping to get more people to understand Coolidge's importance.

Both of these works are open source for $free$ in the public domain.

Here's a probably too-long excerpt of some of the other Coolidge topics from the FRchives:

I’ve been to his home, at the time still a working dairy. They produced actual, authentic, real American cheese. It’s nothing like those disgusting orange slices in cellophane. It was a white, crumbly sour-sharp cheese.

Coolidge was once the mayor of the far, far left town of North Hampton Massachusetts. He was one of our finest presidents, a sort of counter balance for the evil, hateful Woodrow Wilson.

The resurgence of the KKK got started under Wilson. The obviously Demwit op-ed commentary is the only marring influence on this otherwise excellent documentary.
