Coolidge's Mind on Third Term Stirs Political Debate
In a detailed analysis from the New York Herald Tribune, the piece argues that Franklin D Roosevelt’s control of Congress under his term limited any real obstruction by Congress to his aims, while President Coolidge has shown little power over Congress. It suggests Coolidge’s veto of the McNary Haugen bill and his stance on banking, tariffs, and industry reveal a non political administration, complicating rumors of a possible run for a third term. The article examines the tradition against a third term, its rationale, and the potential erosion of safeguards if the tradition were abandoned.
