Time to play “Guess which person in the picture is a Secret Service Agent”.

Probably one of the finest presidents America has ever had. He certainly ranks in the top 5.

Coolidge on taxes and government expenditure.

One of his greatest strengths.

He realized the Good Lord gave us one mouth and two ears for a reason.

What a contrast to the current occupant of the WH.

“At the Coolidge dinner, the organization’s chairwoman, Amity Shlaes, passed out buttons that said “Coolidge in ‘16.”

Her book on Coolidge was pretty good. Got some good insight into the man. We sure could use him today.

Fantastic book. Fantastic president!

Shows you exactly how strong the American economy can be under the right policies.

One of the best POTUSes EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After seeing the C-SPAN First Ladies, Influence and Image episode covering Grace Coolidge last year, I have become inclined to believe she was one of the best FLOTUSes EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kinda makes one want to vomit in disgust over the absolute mockery being made of the title of First Lady at present.

He does have library, it’s run by state of MA.

Mr., we could use a man like Calvin Coolidge again. He and Reagan, the only great Presidents since Lincoln.

He was POTUS when my Grandmother came to the USA; she loved him.

"Mr., we could use a man like Calvin Coolidge again."

This was supposed to be the original line in the lyrics to "Those Were The Days" on "All in the Family." I don't know why they changed it to Hoover, since he is not a President people look on with fondness.

My Grandma (1925) and her sister (1923) were born during his Presidency. Republican family in North Dakota. Their father hated that cockroach FDR for stealing his gold.

I remember you telling me you thought it SHOULD be the line.

But it was and they changed it? Obviously done on purpose to make Archie look stupid.
