It's about time we had a coin with TR on it. I think he's a worthy
candidate. -- Richard My coin Links: http://coins.richlh.com/Coins/MyCoinLinks.htm "stonej" wrote in message oups.com... http://www.in-forum.com/articles/ind...8§ion=News |

Roosevelt dollar proposal advances in Congress
Ah!
ROSE-velt. I guess I can tolerate that. At first, I read it as ROOS-evelt and was dismayed, but now I can rest merry. When I was growing up, every year at this time, relatives would gather for dinner and gift giving. Then they would sit around and relive the past. After the Depression, the next event was the attempted assassination of Franklin D. Roosevelt by Puerto Rican nationalists. Mayor Cermak of Chicago was killed. Everyone would nod... then someone would say, "They shot the wrong Democrat." and everyone would laugh. It was a family tradition. |

It was Truman who was the target of Puerto Rican nationalists: http://www.trumanlibrary.org/trivia/assassin.htm. The attempt on FDR, which resulted in the death of Cermak, was carried out by an insane man named Giuseppe Zangara. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giuseppe_Zangara Is that what was meant by "the wrong Democrat?" |
