Robert A. Taft | “First, it was the power of the New York financial interests and a large number of businessmen subject to New York influence, who selected General Eisenhower as their candidate at least a year ago. There was a strong and substantial minority of Taft supporters among business leaders, but they were a minority, particularly in the East. Second, four-fifths of the influential newspapers in the country were opposed to me continuously and vociferously and many turned themselves into propaganda sheets for my opponent.” | Robert A. Taft | 1952 |
Robert A. Taft | “Every Republican candidate for president since 1936 has been nominated by the Chase National Bank” | Robert A. Taft | 1952 |
