First Presidential Convention Held in Arkansas (1931)

The first time a presidential convention was held in Arkansas was in 1931 and it's never happened again since. Sound like a nothing-burger? You're wrong! This is a major something-burger because we're going to survey the life of William Hope "Coin" Harvey, his free silver ambitions, his own personal health retreat town of Monte Ne, and his brief time as Presidential nominee for the Liberty Party. Join us for a long, strange trip into northwest Arkansas and beyond! Plus, the MouthGarf Report and, of course, a little I See What You Did There!Sources:https://www.vintagebentonville.com/national-presidential-convention-held-in-monte-ne.html#gsc.tab=0https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Hope_Harveyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_silverhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_Party_(United_States,_1932)Please give us a 5 star rating on Apple Podcasts! Want to ask us a question?
