| Description | Cartoon shows a worried GOP elephant about to open the Republican National Convention held in Kansas City in June 1928. Before him wave banners showing pictures of the announced candidates: Governor Frank O. Lowden of Illinois, Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover, Senator Charles Curtis of Kansas, and Senator James E. Watson of Indiana. President Coolidge stands at the window, glumly watching the scene. In 1927, Coolidge announced that he would not run for re-election in 1928, but many of his supporters were convinced that his decision was not irrevocable. |
