Once again T.C.H.O.T.P. sent me some great stuff, once again I took too long getting around to actually reading it (obsecro mihi ignoscas) Luckily, this one wasn't too time sensitive and bears reading now.
George Weigel labels this November's contest as "A Nation-Defining Election" and begins his case with this:
"Not all presidential elections are equal. It made a lot of difference to America's future that Andrew Jackson beat John Quincy Adams in 1828, that Abraham Lincoln bested Stephen A. Douglas in 1860, and that the twentieth century's two most influential presidents, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan, topped Herbert Hoover and Jimmy Carter, respectively."Posted by Vox at April 14, 2004 11:57 PM | politics
