Ep. 225 - Coolidge and the Constitution

He was a city mayor, state representative and state senator.  He was a lieutenant governor and governor.  And he was a vice president and president.  Today, we are discussing the accomplishments of Calvin Coolidge.  He was an ardent defender of the US Constitution and fought the trend to alter and reinterpret the provisions in the Constitution.  He was also a dedicated "Toquevillian." To guide our student panel in this discussion, we are thrilled to welcome Amity Shlaes as a guest.  She is the author of "Coolidge" (2013) and is the chair board of the Calvin Coolidge Presidential Foundation.
