Hangers On Week: Al Smith and Remakes The Democratic Party
Manage episode 404348976 series 2642812
Throughout this election year, we’re going to be doing a few special series tied to the notable stretches in an election cycle, from primaries to conventions and October surprises and more. This is “Hangers-On Week” our look at the point in the primary calendar where candidates are, for one reason or another, still hanging around.
For our final episode of Hangers On Week, Jody, Niki, and Kellie look at Al Smith, who ran for president in 1924 and 1928, at a time when the Democratic party was building a new religious, racial, and demographic coalition. He may not have won, but he set the stage for FDR.
Who else deserves to be on our list of hangers-ons? What other categories would you slot candidates into? Let us know!
