@RealKlap I see your point. The dilemma herein is that when parties began moving power to pick delegates from party organizations to voters in primaries--the Democrats starting in '72, Republicans by '80--they opened themselves up to hostile takeovers such as McGovern in '72 & Trump in '16 — PolitiTweet.org

@JTeeEss Robt. Vann, editor of the Pittsburgh Courier (a black-owned paper), the Baltimore Sun (which reported Hitler sent Owen an inscribed photo), German journalist Sigfried Minscher (who claimed Owen's showed him photo of him w. Hitler), & Owens' own speeches on the controversy. — PolitiTweet.org

@TheGreatBundini No, after FDR snubbed him, wouldn't invite him to WH or meet w. him or congratulated him. "Hitler didn't snub me," he told Republican rallies, "The President of the United States snubbed me." — PolitiTweet.org

At '36 Olympics, runners Marty Glickman & Sam Stoller--both Jewish--were replaced on the 400-meter relay race by Jesse Owen's & Ralph Metcalfe. This was the last-minute decision of Olympic chief Avery Brundage--portrayed by Philip Kerr in the Bernie Gunther novels as antisemetic. — PolitiTweet.org

Contrary to popular lore, Jesse Owens insisted, Hitler did not snub him after he won '36 Olympics & in fact shook his hand & congratulated him. The person who did snub him, he said, was FDR, who never invited him to WH or congratulated him. That's why Jesse became Republican. — PolitiTweet.org

Running w. Jesse Owen's & winning 83 yrs. ago today at the Berlin Olympics was Ralph Metcalfe of Chicago, later alderman from Chgo. and U.S. Rep. from 1970-78 (one of his top campaign operatives was precinct Capt. Fraser Robinson, father of Michelle Obama). — PolitiTweet.org

On this day in 1936, Jesse Owen's won the Olympic Gold Medal in track at the Berlin Olympics--showing up Hitler's boasts of a master race" & giving A Americans something to cheer about (including my Dad & his twin brother Uncle Lou, who cheered him watching movie newsreels). — PolitiTweet.org

@Mayor17Ian @newsmax The work of the Senate committee was not only commendable in unearthing Communist spies & allies within Gov't, but was completely vindicated by the Venona Papers of the Kremlin declassified after the fall of the Soviet Union. — PolitiTweet.org

@Mayor17Ian @newsmax Let me help you. Not a single name you mentioned has a thing to do w. McCarthy or the Senate Gov't. Operations Committee or IRS investigative subcommittee (which he chaired).
