Chapter 492: Swear to world peace

No one can understand how resentful an opposition party that has been in the opposition for twelve years and a funder who supports the opposition party feels in the face of this situation, especially a person like Sheffield, who is almost crazy with desire for collusion between government and business.

There is still value in working hard for the Republican Party's intelligence work, and now is not the time not to work hard. And there is no place more important than New York. To be fair, according to geographical divisions, there are actually many hardcore vote banks in the United States that have not moved for decades. In the hands of the Republican Party

Of course there are, and the New England region in the northeastern part of the United States is a die-hard Republican vote base.

Although Alton Parker has been a judge in New York for a long time, he is still at a loss to understand the fact that the Republican Party has an absolute advantage. At this time, Sheffield proposed a concept, WASP! The concept of white Anglo-Saxon Protestants to fight for these new

Voters in England.

This concept would appear at least fifty years later, and was used to refer to the upper class Protestant society in the United States, that is, immigrants from Britain during the colonial era. These people belonged to the Presbyterian Church, Congregational Church, and Episcopalian Church in the Protestant denominations.

Emerging from the United States, it firmly occupies the upper class society in the United States. Children go directly from private high schools to Ivy League schools, learn the customs, etiquette, and manners of the upper class, establish relationships with other famous families, and control the finance, culture, and economics of the United States.

Politics and other important fields. Intermarriage within the clan prevents the outflow of inheritance; polo and yachting are unique entertainment methods for the wealthy and leisure class.

Even in the South, people like this belong to the upper class. Needless to say, Sheffield is the descendant of British immigrants. The slave owners in the South just chose another economic model to live. The North and the South are the same in this regard. Even education and

The citizen class is also different, and the education of the citizen class is different. The citizen class generally can receive higher education, which originated from the "Soldiers' Bill of Rights" during World War II.

After the GI Bill of Rights, there were theoretically no restrictions for ordinary citizens to go to school. However, at the same time, a large number of public universities that could compete with private universities began to be abolished by the upper class with happy education. Therefore, the higher education received by the citizen class,

Still can't compare with private universities.

Alton Parker was very interested in the concept of white Anglo-Saxon Protestants and had in-depth discussions with Sheffield about this concept. In a sense, this was consistent with the increasingly conservative Democratic Party, but it was not consistent with the concept.

Something like white supremacy seems offensive.

A judge is a judge. Sheffield expressed admiration for Alton Parker's opinion. In fact, slave owners only knew that such a term existed and could be used to win over voters in the northeastern United States without being offended by voters in the South and Midwest.

How can anyone draw inferences about other people's disgust?

On the other side, Taft was also trying his best to fulfill his responsibilities as a candidate, even if his biggest dream was to be a Supreme Court justice. When President McKinley invited him to go to the Philippines, the implicit promise was that he would enter when he returned.

Supreme Court. When Roosevelt became president, he respected his predecessor's promise and gave Taft two opportunities to serve on the Supreme Court.

Taft reluctantly declined. The first time was because he could not leave without completing his work in the Philippines; the second time was because his wife and closest adviser Nellie persuaded him not to stay here.

Buried in the courthouse at the time. Taft, who was serving as Secretary of War at the time, was promoted throughout the country as Roosevelt's most likely successor. If it weren't for his wife's dream of the White House, Taft would never have agreed to participate in the presidential campaign.

campaign.

Alton Parker had at least one advantage over Taft, that is, he had already experienced an election before, and he was already familiar with many of the words he said. He just had to wait for the formal election to begin.

Taft was different. The primary election within the Republican party alone made it quite nervous. Roosevelt and Taft's wife were a little helpless about this. They had high hopes for him, but he was far from being in court.

With ease.

In the love nest of New York and Alice Roosevelt, after hearing Alice Roosevelt talk about Taft's wife, Sheffield thought back for a moment and said, "She was a very charming governor's wife, very suitable for the Yankees who stood and talked.

I don’t know if my appetite without back pain is an advantage now.”

Taft's wife Nellie left a good impression on the Filipinos when she was the wife of the Governor-General of the Philippines. While in the Philippines, her behavior shocked the die-hard military conservatives. She refused to strictly separate whites from whites.

Local Filipinos insisted on complete racial equality in the Governor's Mansion.

After all, the Philippines is a colony, and the situation in the country is completely different. Even slave owners dare not claim to know the ethnic groups anywhere in the country. Who knows whether the Yankees in New England identify more with WASP or with WASP?

The words freedom, democracy, and equality are more acceptable. Anyway, we will know on the day of the election.

"In fact, it would be nice for my father to step down from the position of president!" Alice Roosevelt said with emotion, "He is an energetic person who has broken many unspoken rules of the federal government."

"It can't be said that. A lot of things have been done, although it has caused huge losses to many companies." Sheffield did not mention the United Company. Strictly speaking, slave-owning companies were spared during Roosevelt's term.

In a calamity, opportunities always come to those who are prepared. By the way, he also captured the other party's daughter.

Seeing that President Roosevelt finally left the White House, all the unhappiness was gone. Even the investigation of the USS Maine explosion was not used. Considering the de facto relationship between Alice Roosevelt and himself, it was best not to use it.

Kissing Alice Roosevelt's red lips, Sheffield smiled maliciously and said ambiguously, "If President Roosevelt were not the president, we would be free. I want to have a child with you and leave a life for our child."

A large inheritance will allow him to watch others start at the finish line from birth."

Alice Roosevelt rolled her eyes at Sheffield. If she was even a little dissatisfied with this man, it was that he spoke too straightforwardly. Of course, people thought this was a sign of honesty.

Well, even if this is an honest expression, I should cover it up a little and say it directly.

But after thinking about Sheffield's words, Alice Roosevelt also felt longing in her heart. As a woman, she was already quite old. Many of her peers were already married and had children, but because she was the president's daughter, her other half

He is a well-known big business owner in the United States, and he dare not take a step beyond his reach.

As for marrying someone else, as this man said, Alice Roosevelt would only consider it unless she particularly disliked a man. As long as she made the slightest move, the man with the strange armband would knock on the other person's door.

But thinking about giving birth to a child for Sheffield, Alice Roosevelt still felt a little scared, "I wonder what others will say about me? Especially when I am with you, will they say that I am defeated by money?"

"They are just jealous. Can my Alice be conquered by money?" As a man, Sheffield was not worried. He lit the cigarette and took a leisurely puff. Then he said implicitly, "I can't guarantee anything else."

, but at least within the United States, hehe, the future between us is very bright."

Sheffield said the word "light" very seriously, and Alice Roosevelt would certainly believe the sincerity in her words. In today's United States, there are not many things that can make this man scruple. As for some rumors, then

It has no lethality at all. Otherwise, other people would have been ashamed of their unclear relationship with that woman from the Rockefeller family, but that was someone else, not this man who was not ashamed but proud of it.

Alice Roosevelt did not reveal the secrets of the Republican Party. It was an open fact known to both camps that Roosevelt pushed Taft to run. It was no big deal to tell Sheffield.

Anyway, Alice Roosevelt knew that her man was a senior Democrat and the most die-hard supporter. This was a fact that could not be changed. The other party wanted to inquire about information in the Republican Party. With the ability of the United Company, even if it was her,

Even if you don't say anything, it won't help.

"It seems that you have a way to defeat the Republican Party?" Alice Roosevelt asked nonchalantly.

"We are all smart people, and we all understand some things," Sheffield took a deep breath of cigarette and said with a self-deprecating smile, "How can we say that we will definitely win this kind of national election half a year in advance? We can only say that we will win."

Certain preparations. I am relieved that your father will not come out to run for office. This way, winning will not delay the relationship between us. Alice, you know, what do I do to you, do you need to say?"

If Roosevelt really comes out to start a third term, Sheffield will have a headache again. But in front of Alice Roosevelt, of course, sincere love is worth protecting, and she is unwilling to directly confront her father-in-law.

The slave owner swore that he was definitely not afraid of Roosevelt. With his current preparations, he was sure of facing anyone. Roosevelt did not pursue re-election, which actually prevented him from losing his security in the later years. It was a very wise choice.

"Really?" Alice Roosevelt asked with a hint of suspicion in her eyes, "Are you so sure of winning?"

"Of course, I'm definitely not afraid of your father, I just care more about your feelings." Sheffield said with a serious face, "I can even swear on world peace. If there is even half a lie, a world war will break out. This way

Do you believe me?"
