Cal was a good man, and a great leader. Common sense is against the law today, anyway........
And credit Harding for letting the Depression of 1920 run its course without gov’t intervention making it worse.
Thus setting the stage for the economic boom of the Twenties.
Ping!
I consider him to be the patron saint of the Tea Party.
A speech on taxes, the cost of government and its relation to the average man.

Great man. He also put a stop to the endless immigration that the public had had enough of.
Coolidge is one of my favorite Presidents of all time. I read his autobiography. A man of true of character.
A favorite joke had a pretty young woman approaching the president to explain that she had bet a friend she could make him say more than two words. “You lose,” Coolidge replied.
He’s my second-favorite president, after George Washington.
"I don't recall any candidate for president that ever injured himself very much by not talking"
"Nine tenths of a president's callers at the White House want something they ought not to have. I you keep dead still they will run down in three or four minutes."
Calvin Coolidge
Cool Cal ping.
Coolidge also signed into law the National Origins Quota based immigration reform, which ended mass immigration and and ushered in an era of low-moderate immigration levels that lasted for forty years.
That was one of the great conservative successes of his Presidency, and it is that more than any thing else that modern Republicans should seek to replicate by ending this current unending wave of mass, democrat-importing immigration.
Coolidge’s only significant mistake was supporting Harding’s leftist lunacy with the Washington Naval Treaty, which in many ways started World War 2 in the Pacific.
