LAST DITCH OF DEMOCRACY - Majority Rights

was white washed, I was again considered American. All this is probably
very superficial. Permit me an easy evening: permit me for once to trifle
with these bits of swansdown floating on the social and political stream.
#67 (March 16, 1943) U.S.(C20)
TO EXPLAIN
It probably seemed very eccentric that a man, any man should suspend
playin’ tennis and trying to understand the Confucian anthology, and
after a long period of years return to America to protest against
ANYTHING, or to offer suggestions to his fellow citizens about
anything whatsoever.
After four years, I should however like to have a few minutes MORE
conversation’ with Mr. Sam Pryor, and with young Elihu, and a few
other lights of the party; and see whether they are more disposed now to
believe what I then told ’em. I do NOT believe that the third election of
Roosevelt was necessary. I take it the U.S. now knows that the election
was an error. My contention then was that people wanted something
different. Wilikie was NOT something different, he was the same, worse,
and more so. And the people did not elect him.
Most sane Americans now wish Roosevelt and his kikes had never been
born. But none of ’em seem to have any clear idea how to eliminate the
nasty consequences of the untoward event. Sage Republicans in 1939
may have felt that Roosevelt had thoroughly puked on the American
floor, and that his Party ought to clean up the mess.
I did NOT agree with ’em. The subsequent mess shows no signs of
producin’ its own vacuum cleaners. Well let bygones be bygones. I am
NOT blaming the Republican chiefs for lack of omniscence. Few people
have it.
