But I have to say, Coolidge would have gotten royally PO at spending almost $567 of the taxpayers' dollars on framing a picture of anything . . . . (And he would have paid for it himself.)

Amazing how even today, Progressives still hate Coolidge. The public needs to know more about him and his restraint.

The criticism of the shape of the State of SC seems a bit harsh, in addition to the review of Calvin Coolidge. The big government, central planning, tax & spend types frame portraits of Wilson, FDR, & LBJ. Mulvaney should be applauded for putting up #30.

That is if they study what President Coolidge thought and did, Ms. Shlaes. I think you could recommend a book about that?

and the Huffington post is relevant?

I do love how Calvin Coolidge is blamed for the rise of the KKK yet the 28th president and overt racist gets off scot free.

@HuffPost I have a portrait of Coolidge and Mellon. And I am very proud to display and describe their great contributions to public policy.

Is a legacy of Pres Coolidge that he paid down the Federal debt? Any parallels with booming economy in '20s to today's, with booming stock market? Do we have different safeguards, or any, today?
