Graves on Democracy Policy of Negation and Rebirth
John Temple Graves delivers a Jackson Day banquet speech in Cincinnati urging the Democratic Party to abandon negation and imitation. He envisions a reformed, reconsecrated party committed to the Constitution, popular rights, and active creed making, while criticising past capitulation to Republicans. He notes shifts in the South toward Roosevelt and doubts Southern representation cuts will occur, with Roosevelt and northern opinion opposed.
