I wouldn’t call Hoover a party hack. He actually had been courted by both parties to run for president as early as 1920 since he was seen as a huge hero in WWI for helping feed the hungry of Europe. And he had supported TR’s independent candidacy in 1912 too. Hoover’s fault if you ask me was that he was in over his head. From what I know of Hoover, he was a good guy but one that was in over his head.

That’s what I get for typing while tired.

Harding. I meant Harding.

Look, they both start with H, okay?

And you’re right about Hoover. He was a good guy.
