The Manhattan Populist

Breitbart.com ^ | May 25,2016 | Nathan Allen And Theodore Roosevelt Malloch

[Biggirl]

John Quincy Adams, quintessential Boston Brahman and archenemy of a General and bumpkin-turned-president Andrew Jackson, had a plan. Rumors circulated that Jackson was illiterate (Adams had called him “a barbarian who could not write a sentence of grammar and hardly could spell his own name”) and Adams amused himself with the thought of giving Jackson an honorary Harvard degree, the speech for which was traditionally given in Latin. So Adams arranged to have the backwoods president invited and assumed the illiterate Jackson would decline.

Breitbart has blocked me from commenting on their site, so I miss a lot of interesting stuff by declining to click on it.

When I asked why, they did not give me the courtesy of a reply.

Adams was an effete snob, and an elitist. Perfect Harvard boy.

very interesting

Honest ... since I've been in Jim's living toom, I've learned so much more than all my years in school and even in my own self continuing education

[OldNewYork]

Well done, Jackson.

Google "Theodore Roosevelt Malloch" though.

Not exactly your everyday populist man in the street.

Whether the story is totally true or not doesn’t matter.

The motto of the main stream media.

"...in Jackson’s farewell speech he delivered a lengthy, impassioned warning to the regular, everyday Americans—“the planter, the farmer, the mechanic, and the laborer”—that the establishment would use money and the media to undo his many accomplishments."

[PA Engineer]

These patriots see theirs as an establishment game not worth playing. For them the stakes are much higher—they are about America First.

E pluribus Unum BTTT.

Thanks for the ping.
