Another thing this article reminds me of is a book by Bill Bryson I just read, "One Summer: America, 1927" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Summer:_America,_1927 ). Much of the book talks about Charles Lindberg, who was non-political when he became famous in 1927, but then started going to the dark side, culminating in a pro-nazi speech he gave in Iowa just before Pearl Harbor in late 1941. The majority of the public chose the intelligent response, and their revulsion ended Lindbergh's fame.
It looks like this is a newer blog that we all need to spread the word about, because this article is worthy of hundreds of comments and they aren't here yet. Please don't let that stop you from following through to write parts II and III and beyond. I've already shared links to this Part I, which is excellent.
Great work, my super Classmate!
Keep it up.
High praise from a straight shooter. Thanks, Bill. SFi
