FDR and the Supreme Court
The President of the United States
Sir:
I hope that this gets by the fifteenth secretary in charge of opening letters.
The enclosed is a better expression that I am able to write. A life long Democrat I cannot stomach this Supreme Court proposal.
I have voted for you twice. The first time enthusiastically. The second time with some doubt. Now I believe after hearing your victory dinner talk that you have allowed success to go to your head to appoint where the country is in real danger.
You are not God. You probably have some faults and I pray that you may find it out while the party and your country are still whole.
I have no money and only about four thousand dollars in property.
I am not signing this because I have seen some of the things which your organizations have done to people who spoke their minds.
