The Face Of America

AMERICA’S FACE In the late 1930’s early 40’s we had a far left socialist for president. In the 50’s a retired general; early 60’s a playboy with no experience who nearly got us into nuclear war, followed by a liberal coxswain who foisted the welfare state upon us; 70’s a man of dubious character who we forced from office; 80’s an actor turned politician who strode bigger than life...
