President Warren Harding

[maxpowers518]

RIP Warren Gangsta Harding...a true playa!

[Tickleangelo]

harding was a GREAT speechwriter..

"we have nothing to fear except fear itself '

^^^brilliant!!!!

[steffidude]

@Tickleangelo Franklin Roosevelt said "we have nothing to fear but fear itself'

[9458006]

It's good to have voice recordings of as many presidents as we can for posterity. Voice recordings of Harrison, McKinley, and T. Roosevelt do exist, as well as one of Coolidge. Trivia: Harding was born on November 2, 1965 making him the first president born after the Civil War.

[watcherthatboxer]

For all those reading the conflicting opinions about harding, lemme give you a quote from him:

"I am a man of limited talents from a small town, I don't seem to grasp that I am president."

He wasn't an absolutely terrible president, he just wasn't very good. He could have at least have chosen a better cabinet.

[BigBlueBeast]

Warren Harding. The first African American president. Barack Obama is the second. They have a lot of similarities.

[Willredd94]

Harding-Coolidge=best presidential ticket of the 20th Century

[calimar28]

Harding and Coolidge were an A team, like Maris and Mantle, like Ruth and Gehrig.

[Mprator]

Harding was a better President that the vast majority of his successors, despite the corruption issues.

Just what the nation needed after the disaster Wilson.

[mjordan1998]

I just watched this cause I read he was handsome in the book Blink.... Nothing handsome about this guy. And his voice isn't that great neither.....

[Einhander49]

Harding was actually a good politician. It's just that he made a bad judgment call by appointing his buds into those administrations. The whole nation really normed for this guy, particularly after finding out about the scandals provoked by people he considered close friends.

[jaay334]

wow you ppl are aweak great to see ppl knowing history :)))))))))

[NoSocialismcom]

If Hoover would have responded to the 1929 crash the way that Harding had responded, he would have spared us the Great Depression.

Harding cut top taxes from 75% to 25% and saw a 25% rise in income taxes, due to increased economic activity.

Hoover increased top taxes from 25% to 63% and saw a massive drop in tax revenue with the resultant drop in the economy.

FDR was elected in part on promises of reducing taxes to Harding Era levels. Instead he increased taxes on 50K and above to 100%!

[MsWickedblonde]

Warren Harding had friends who were democrats. Today the GOP has polorized this nation. The right wing airwaves spreading hate and blasting anyone who disagrees with their agenda has divided this nation! The republican party needs a person like Harding today. Harding was a much better president than history gives him credit.

[robotmonkey73]

Guess what... so do left wing airwaves.

[helltrackrider]

Harding was probably the greatest President...up there with Washington...

but, it is not only the GOP who has polarized America...Obama still, as all democrats do, has the "Blame Bush" for the crisis we are in....

Fact being, no President can remove us form the shit we are in...it will take a liberty loving Congress - similar to Ron Paul - to remove Government constraints on the individuals and corporations and to remove the damn Federal Reserve...

[Soulblackman]

@MsWickedblonde U don't think the DEMS supported by CNN, CBS, NBC, etc. r hate-filled and blast those with who disagree with them? Think about the hate against Clarence Thomas and how "St" Obama made it a pt. to publicly rebuke him, something I have NEVER heard a "president" do. The GOP is in an uphill, conceptual battle vs. the mediacons on the left/wrong side of the cultural battle. The DEMS have polarized the country in ways the GOP could never be given access to do, so ur assertion is wrong.

[patrickjosephjames]

@Soulblackman Conceptual battle: You are right in that the difference between those on the left and those on the right has to do with different world views. The right wants fewer taxes, less government, more individual responsibility. This line of thinking gave us the Great Depression (thank you Presidents Harding and Coolige) and the current one (thank you George W. Bush).

[Soulblackman]

@patrickjosephjames Please elaborate how the policies of the aforementioned, caused the depression and the current recession, which the left loved to call a depression, when expedient.

[Jaydublus]

I have no trouble with my enemies. I can take care of my enemies in a fight. But my friends, my goddamned friends, they're the ones who keep me walking the floor at nights! --Warren G. Harding

[DBJW82]

Perhaps thee most underrated and misunderstood President of the 20th century. A true list of presidential rankings would have him much higher then dead last or close too. Left wing historians at it again. He appointed 2 bad cabinet members. He was not personally corrupt however, yet thats all historians seem to look at. Id encourage everyone to read about Harding. A good president who when he died had a huge outpouring of affection from the American people. More so then people realize.

[Soulblackman]

@DBJW82 One reason perhaps, he is so vilified, is that he was black or had black heritage. Read J.A. Rogers' The 5 Negro Presidents, before you argue and reject what I said.

[steffidude]

Happy New Year President Harding!

[caction66]

I love Harding because he was an "America First" president. And after eight years of Wilson's crimes (creating the federal reserve, getting us into World War I, throwing innocent women into workhouses for "suspected" of prostitution, shutting down dissent of the war in the newspapers, not stepping down from the presidency after his stroke, racism against African-Amercans, etc) and yet to this day the slanted history books still say that WIlson was a great president

[18Sheababy]

Convened the first modern international disarmament conference, the Washington Naval Conference. Produced a government so efficient that it created the first budget surplus since the implementation of the federal income tax. Pardoned practically everyone that was still in prison as a result of running afoul of Woodrow Wilson's Espionage and Sedition Acts.

[18Sheababy]

Appointed four justices of the Supreme Court. including former President William Howard Taft as Chief Justice. Assembled a cabinet composed of some of the most widely respected men of his time including Charles Evan Hughes as Secretary of State, Andrew Mellon at Treasury, and Herbert Hoover as Secretary of Commerce. Established the Veteran's Bureau, which later became the Department of Veterans' Affairs.

[earl8877]

The economic situation in 1920 was dire. Unemployment was nearly 12% and GNP had declined by 17%. Harding reduced taxes for all income levels, reduced the federal budget by about 45% by 1922, reduced the national debt by about one-third, and kept federal reserve activity to a minimum. By 1922 unemployment was down to 6.7% and was only 2.4% in 1923.

[alecisatoon12]

Either James Buchanan or Woodrow Wilson was our two worst presidents because one reason is how sean2015 stated that Woodrow Wilson established the fiasco of the federal reserve and my statment of how he had good reasons to go in to WW1 but the U.S. just wasn't ready for it military wise yet. Then Bucanan sucks because up until Lincoln's presidency Bucanan was doing zip about the coming threat of the Confederacy. Even though this would have changed history dramatically it would have been betterWO

[DBJW82]

I wish more Americans would read history. Not opinionated history either. I also wish parents would teach their kids even at a very young age who the Presidents were, and about different historical events. This man as PRESIDENT was very good and he was well liked amongst the American people. He inherited tougher times then we see today and basically other then lower taxes, let the economy correct itself paving the way for the roaring 20's. Very underrated president!

[kavadidle]

@DBJW82 i agree, he was an effective president before he died two years into office, to bad there were scandels found in his administration ruining his reputation after his death,

[billyguns2]

How quaint of President Harding to refer to the USA as a "Republic;" he would be shocked beyond belief if he could see what we have become today, a secretive fascist dictatorship posing as a democracy leading a pack of uneducated, apathetic, deluded, and ignorant citizens.

[insanekillamonster1]

Best presidents: 1. George Wasington 2. Abraham Lincoln 3. Ronald Reagan 4. JFK 5. Andrew Jackson Worst Presidents: (Worst on top) 1. Herbert Hoover 2. Jimmy Carter 3. Barack Obama 4. Warren Harding 5. James Buchanan

[frankgrimes17]

Wow you have a fucked up view of history if you think Andrew Jackson and Ronald Reagan are in the top 5 best presidents.

And seriously, Barack Obama? He has been president for 10 months.

[insanekillamonster1]

Wow you have a fucked up education if you think they don't belong in there. Reagan saved our economy for 25 years, and Jackson was the only president not to make or face any debt. And Obama has made our debt so large that in the first 50 days of his presidency he stole our children's and grandchildren's future. Not to mention this health care bill he's trying to shove down our throats.

[frankgrimes17]

If debt is the only thing that concerns you then Reagan is an interesting choice, seeing as he drove national debt up by about 25% during his presidency. Reaganomics didnt work, even Reagan's former economic adviser has my back on that one. And as far as our children's future regarding debt goes, we can get back to a balance, it will take awhile, but it starts by cutting military spending.

[insanekillamonster1]

With Russia and China as two powers and very violent ones indeed, I don't think cutting military spending is wise. Congratulations, almost everyone here is a victim of the Democratic Propaganda Machine. Keep thumbing me down, it just makes me laugh harder.

P.S. I am in the Constitution Party, not the Republican party.

[DonnerPartyAnimals]

@frankgrimes17 Jackson was a great president. He just fucked up with the Native Americans. Keep in mind that even FDR put the Japanese in prison camps.

[DonnerPartyAnimals]

@insanekillamonster1 I actually agree completely with your lists except for #3 on either one. For starters, Barack Obama has been president less than a year. Its way too soom to judge.

[DBJW82]

History is written by liberals. Harding always ranks low among historians because it was thought for decades his wife destroyed all his papers. Soo, the scandals which he in fact had noting to do with is what historians saw with his presidency. His papers in fact werent destroyed and over the past couple decades opinons of him have changed drastically. A very good president he was despite his poor choosing of cronies for his cabinet.

[DBJW82]

Warren Harding's only two downfalls as President that I have seen by reading about him were his choice of cabinet members. Most were his cronies from Ohio who were either corrupt or inexperienced for the job. Second, would be his speeches, though hardly a big deal. His personal life while senator also, is nothing of my concern nor should have been for historians ranking his presidency as they had nothing to do with it. I would love to have a Warren Harding type President today!

[billyguns2]

We should be so lucky to have a Harding today; liberal-socialist-communist sympathizing "historians" have trashed him in order to praise Wilson, our worst president, and to praise the likes of FDR and LBJ.

[frionelhero]

I just hope that someday in the future, history books will be altered to represent his true worth to the United States Presidency. "do nothing" presidents like Harding, Coolidge, Tyler, Hayes, Van Buren, Arthur and Cleveland are always rated lowly, but they are the best presidents because of their lack of intervention in both foreign and domestic affairs.

[sean2015]

The reason Woodrow Wilson is one of our worst presidents is because he established that fiasco known as the Federal Reserve.

[DBJW82]

About he roaring 20's. Wilson had almost nothing to do with it. When Harding took office, the country was in a bad recession due to WW1. Trade was horrible because Europe was destroyed, and thousands of demobilzed US soldiers were back home. Harding and Coolidge letting business do its thing, especially with all the modernization is the reason for the roaring 20's. An underrated President and a smart one despite what some think.

[Justgetout]

Woodrow Wilson was clearly our worst president.

And Harding is definitely our most underrated president.

He is hated because he brought America from a deep recession to prosperity with surpluses, in just a few years, without any expensive government programs or stimulus package.

He cut taxes and spending, and supported normalcy, unlike his imperial and arrogant predecessor.

Historians like big men with big ambitions, even if they get us into the most horrible crisis.

[DBJW82]

People and historians rate him as one of the worst presidents ever but those same people never actually studied the history of what this man did while in office and what he stood for. The scandals he had nothing to do with. The 3 best presidents of the 20th century before Reagan were Harding, Coolidge and Hoover hands down!

[xitongzou]

ugh those guys caused the great depression

[jpzollar]

They didn't "cause" the Great Depression. If one wants a U.S. President to "blame" you might want to look into some of the plans Wilson had in mind for the Europeon economy after WWI. Remember, the Europeon economy "crashed" around the end of World War One and because of trade, war debts, etc., the American economy collapsed. It's a chain reaction sort of thing. Just look at th world economy a few years ago-it started to recess, and thus the U.S. economy has recessed...

[xitongzou]

What are you talking about? The US economy always recesses before the other economies do. The US economy is the most important therefore other countries follow it, not the other way around. And if I remember the 1920s were called the 'roaring twenties' because of Wilson, had nothing to do with the three republican asses that were president at those times.

[jpzollar]

The "Roaring Twenties" were such because of the "hand-off" policies of Harding, Coolidge and Hoover. And the European economy was in the crapper after the War, especially the German economy, not to say they didn't have it coming. But, I think the main point here is, Presidents either get blame or praise for the economy DURING their terms, when really how it works is that they impact the economies of the administrations that follow. FDR made possible the economy of the 50's, LBJ teh 70's, etc..

[xitongzou]

Yup. So I'm right about Wilson impacting the economy of the 20's right? And the economic problems right now was actually Clinton's fault right?

[jpzollar]

In a way, yes...I don't mean to lay total and complete blame at the POTUS's feet, but it generally has to do with their policies...

[LSDNY]

Hoover was not hands off. He massively increased spending first and taxes later and he didn't become president until 1929. FDR certainly certainly made the depression worse. He became president in 1933 and died in 1945. Saying he "made possible the economy of the 50's" only makes sense if you consider he helped destroy the rest of the industrialized world so that we became the only manufacturing power in the 50's. But that wasn't due to his economic policies.

[billyguns2]

You are 100% correct about Herbert Hoover, whose policies were continued and expanded by FDR; let us not forget that Hoover as one of Woodrow Wilson's "wonder boys" who made it into the Harding cabinet. I think Harding and Coolidge were vastly superior presidents to Hoover.

[lebanonman17]

for a good laugh, read "speaking style" in his wikipedia article

[procommenter]

President Warren Harding went against the elite by pledging to return the U.S. to normalcy and to stop meddling in the affairs of nations. He repudiated 8 yrs.' of Wilsonian empire-building. Warren Harding died in 1923 on a campaign trip. No autopsy was performed.

[frionelhero]

President Harding gets a bad rap because of the Teapot Dome scandal. That's like saying Clinton was a bad president because of Monica. Regardless, he inhereted a country with a recession as bad as the one we have now, and through tax cuts and spending cuts, he was able to create a surplus in three years before dying. Maybe we should look at his economic policies a little more closely before calling him the worst president ever.

[IgnatzKolisch]

I agree with procommenter's statement that Harding was much less bad about invading other countries and mass murdering countless Human beings for US (especially US corporations) interests, like Wilson was. I can't call him the worst President ever, since he wasn't as evilly agressive.

But in terms of raw intelligence, he was probably the "dumbest" ever. And it's not just about his economic policies, scandals, or his bad rap among semi-informed people creating value lists of the Presidents.

[frionelhero]

I can't really speak for his intelligence, but I'm sure that him being "dumb" is merely exaggerated to make him look even worse. He can't be any more dumb then Bush right? Honestly though, intelligence shouldn't make a difference when rating a president, only what they do when they are in office, and he is the best president we had in the 20th century BECAUSE of his good economic policies and non interventionist foreign policy. He promoted Peace, Liberty, and Prosperity through his policies.

[Avooc]

@frionelhero Then we should also take the time to look at Hardings numerous affairs with women, even after he was married.

[DBJW82]

@Avooc While unfortunate, why should it matter? It didnt matter for those who liked Wilson, FDR, JFK and Clinton. People can criticize Harding for picking corrupt people for his administration, as well as for philandering but the bottom line of his presidency was that his policies were very effective in turning the country around after the war, and he was a very beloved and popular president to the point where most of us cant even imagine, as proven by the outpouring after his death.

[Skabur123]

@frionelhero Did you know the Teapot Dome scandal was figured out after he died? Harding wanted America to be more rleaxed, after the war and all. He got the bad rap because of the people he appointed were bad. If I remember right, almost all the people he did appoint were succumbed by bribes and all, as the Teapot Dome scandal. Harding gets it all.

[PSANBS]

haha will forever be remembered as the worst president in history.

[mtiznow]

why do you say that?

[PSANBS]

He held one of the biggest scandels in U.S. history because he simply could not say no! haha.

[bender2004]

Uhh James Buchanon is the worst ever. He practically hastened the civil war. I would rank him worst. As for Bush and Obama, Bush made mistakes but you cant blame economy on him and obama too soon to know

[wolf8503]

i woulnt feel sorry for him, he could have taken a W.T. Sherman stance and declined

[locosherman1]

THIS IS GUY WAS SUCH A BAD PRESIDENT

[archer1949]

I feel sorry for this guy. He didn't want to be President in the first place. He was pushed into it by the party machine and his wife. He tried to follow the "hands off" policy of the Republican Party of the time, only to be betrayed by the sleazballs the party bosses saddled him with. He was just a small town guy way over his head and it finally killed him.

[bittergunowner12]

Harding himself wasn't personally corrupt, he just left a lot of power to his cabinet cronies like Albert B Fall his Sec. of the Interior and his Attorney General *I don't remember his name*. It's a shame many people call him a corrupt asshole..

[ekocentric]

Harding once commented that he was not: "worried about my enemies...it's my god damn friends who keep me up nights."

[steffidude]

Attorney General, Harry Daugherty. Harding was an honest man.

[bittergunowner12]

Thanks, there were plenty others, but Fall and Daughterty were prime examples.

[organEd]

His AG was Harry Dougherty.

[JustBigT]

the sleaze of the 1920s Republican party was the worst

[steffidude]

I have wondered many times in the past, what Harding would say if he could see how far the Republican party has departed from the fundamental principles in which he so deeply believed. Harding came from the plain people and he always believed in them....

[gonesouthin]

Harding was one of the worst presidents America has ever had.

[gizmosells]

Harding was busy with mistressless or letting the cronies run the goverment. Left Hoover with the bad deck of cards.

[steffidude]

You mean Coolidge? Calvin Coolidge was vice president under Harding and became president after the death of Harding in 1923. If you do the research, Harding did a great deal while president. He even had the decency to pardon hoosier socialist Eugene Debs. Eugene Debs was imprisioned under the Wilson administration. He received a ten year sentence and stripping his US citizenship under the Sedition Act for interfering with the draft.

[steffidude]

Harding died 8/23, and Hoover didn't become president until 1929. Your skipping Coolidge. Are you saying that Coolidge left Hoover a bad deck of cards??

[steffidude]

Will the next president be dealt with a bad deck of cards. More than Hoover was dealt?

[SSJ3Sandslash]

Out of Harding, Coolidge and Hoover, Hoover was the unlucky one. Here's a hint: November 1932.

[retro1849]

This is great!

President Harding is one of the most unfairly-maligned Americans in history. He had an excellent record on civil rights,  giving a speech in Birmingham, AL, (!) in 1921 strongly endorsing civil rights and voting rights for black Americans. What a shock that the racists of his day ganged up and destroyed this good man's reputation, based on a third-rate scandal that in actuality was pretty minor stuff.

Those illiterate of history just parrot those lines a century later.

[Redman1225]

uhh, not really. He supported literacy tests for blacks and whites in order to be eligible to vote, and even though he favored some civil rights, he was still a segregationist and supported education and economic opportunities for blacks only in segregated settings. Saying he "strongly endorsed civil rights" is a real stretch, although I agree with your general premise that history has been unkind to Harding.

[retro1849]

Of course, coming after America's most racist president (Woodrow Wilson), it is easy for Harding's civil rights record to look "excellent"

[peaceonearth777]

He had African blood in him and West Indies genes. He was the first man to be President with black blood, that we know of!

[datfashionchick]

do you know what island in the west indies?

[ekocentric]

thanx peace on earth 777 I just looked this up and according to the site that I went on there were five presidents who had someone of color in their ancestory!

[roar007]

He is also regarded by most presidential historians as the worst President. He himself even admitted that he did not know what to do, giving powers to his Cabinet cronies, to do what they wanted. Albert Fall, Daugherty, Forbes, Miller, all were crooked, with Teapot Dome only one of the scandals. Mrs. Harding said the Oval Office looked like a speakeasy, whiskey flowing everywhere (Prohibition was on),gambling, and his mistress, Nan Britten, who he was boinking in the closet. What a scene.

[billyguns2]

I'd rather have a speakeasy in the White House than the unecessary deaths of millions, the tyrannical Federal Reserve and Internal Revenue Service, racism, bigotry, self-righteous control freaks, and all the horrors brought upon us by that dangerous idiot Woodrow Wilson! What a relief Harding must have seemed, and he did a lot of good for the country.

[roar007]

BUt I think, to be fair, Harding's administration will be pushed up one rung from the bottom of the ladder, by the Bush administration. BUsh's Gonzo Gang was a crackerjack crew of mental misfits, unfit for any official duty. Goes to show you the judgement that he had in making appointments. How we gave into giving the 10-year-old child the steering wheel of the Mercedes Benz is beyond me, yet we got Bushwhacked twice.

[glrthe2]

Warren Harding. Corrupt, scandal ridden, womanizer, adulterer and he had dominating bitch for a wife.

Hmm. Bill Clinton was the Warren Harding of the 90's!

[billyguns2]

You do a great disservice to President Harding by making that comparison. Historians are discovering that Harding has been unfairly evaluated by their colleagues; he did a lot of good for the country, and stands in stark contrast to that meddling fool Wilson, whose horrible ghost haunts us to this day.

[6265ash]

what corrupt?

[billyguns2]

Warren Harding was not personally corrupt, as that smirking fool George W Bush most certainly is. Harding will be vindicated once the old bloodthirsty racist "historians" die off; Wilson will be shown as the evil, self righteous bigot who ruined America with the Federal Reserve, the Income Tax, and the insane idea that America has the "God-given right" to march into any country and "save it for democracy." We are still paying for that fool's notions.

[cmn1108]

Also, Harding was considered one of our handsomest presidents... *cough*Clinton*coughcough*

[MrCosio]

One of our WORST presidents...............

[billyguns2]

Are you referring to Teapot Dome? That is a drop in the bucket compared to the buckets of blood spilled by tyrants McKinley, Wilson, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, and George W Bush, all who should have been tried as war criminals. President Harding will be vindicated.

[CadillacL]

I've listen to audio fo Benjamin Harrison, Harding, Teddy Roosevelt, Grover Cleveland,etc...its just MIND blowing to know audio exist..to go back in time & hear the past.

[startover942]

Amazing what you can find on YouTube; it is great that there are some sound bytes of our 29th President to be listened to for as long there is an internet.

Thanks so much for posting! Btw, gotta guess that "sound bytes" weren't part of the early 1920's venacular.

[billyguns2]

What is your point? That war pales in comparison to th death toll of natural epidemics and disasters? If so, the difference is that war is under our control.

[billyguns2]

Yes he did give us all of those things, much to our sorrow. You do realize that our money is not worth the paper it's ptinted on, and that the Fed owns everyone and everything? Our involvement in World War I was completely unnecessary, and killed many of our best and brightest for no reason.

[billyguns2]

I believe that absolute ethics exist outside of historical perspective. It was once fashionable for Mayans to rip the heart out of sacrificial victims while they were still alive, a quite reasonable thing to do to them; it stull doesn't justify it. Wilson's racism and foreign meddling are inexcusable by any standard, and he was a self righteous control freak who gave us the insane idea that we have the right to "save" other nations.

[quaker91]

It's unlikely his wife had anything to do with his death. She had too little time to affect him. But the food poisoning he contracted about a week earlier may have had lingering effects that contributed. Still, I'd agree that it was heart failure and nothing else.

[billyguns2]

I agree with you 100%. When the last of the old dinosaur "historians" who are Woodrow Wilson/international meddling apologists, Warren Harding will be found to not be all that bad. What a relief he must've been after eight years of that self-righteous, bigoted control freak Wilson.

[MChelada]

I visited his memorial today in Stanley Park, where he spoke to 40,000 people in 1923. It's quite big, about 9 meters long, made of granite and bronze, although nobody really stops to look at it. It's on a flatbelt above the Malkin Bowl, where I suspect people clamour over it on Sunday nights for a view of the stage. If you ever visit Vancouver, look for the memorial in Stanley Park. It's not hard to find, though many do not know its there.

[billyguns2]

Harding was a far better president than he is given crerdit; what a relief he must have seemed after eight years of that most overrated, racist, self-righteous idiot who gave us a failure of a foreign policy that haunts us to this day: Woodrow Wilson, who sought to "save the world for democracy." What gives us the right to charge into any other country and make them into our image? What a fool he was, and a stubborn mean-spirited freak who laughed at women's rights.

[belairbolt]

Wasn't the Sec. of Int. the mastermind of the TDS?

[Amiduffer]

jfs78, don't forget the "teapot dome" so-called scandal. Another Wall St. attempt to crush independent entrepenours who dared to push modernization outside of the clutches of Morgan and his ilk.

[billyguns2]

Teapot Dome is a drop in the ocean compared to the buckets of blood spilled by William McKinley, Woodrow Wilson, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, and the most corrupt bloodthirsty tyrant of all George W Bush.

[jfs78]

Means was a snake in the grass and has made it seem that Mrs Harding had something to do with the death of her husband. Nothing could have been further from the truth. Harding was a medical mess and the fact that he lived as long as he did is amazing.

[jfs78]

Harding has not been given his fair shake historically. To have as Sec of State Hughes was great. His naming Taft as Chief Justice was wonderful. Harding had no defenders. His wife was dead by 1924 and he was defenceless Perhaps the greatest attack on Harding besides Nan Britten, was Gaston Means. He made up so much of the history of Harding and also gave himself some credit for doing what he never did. His book "The strange death of Pres. Harding" is a amazing piece of fiction.

[PJNARS]

Can you suggest a good bio? Email something or tell me title ok. thanks

[PJNARS]

Where could I learn more about this matter? Very interesting...

[DesiluTrek]

"voive"?

[Swallowyoursoul]

Sorry about that
