I actually heard a speech by the only president ever to be chased out of the country by angry mobs. Back then, Daddy said that by golly, we were gonna take this chance to go see the guy talk cuz he wuz a great man. Less than a year later, Mama would hide Daddy's guns whenever that fella came on the tee vee. By the time I wuz in high school, Daddy wuz sayin he had never liked him and never ever voted for him"
