Bryan was born on March 19, 1860, in Salem, Illinois, and educated at Illinois College, Jacksonville, and at Union College of Law, Chicago. He began to practice law in Illinois in 1883 and served as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Nebraska from 1891 to 1895. During this period he became a leader of the movement for the unlimited coinage of silver. At the Democratic National Convention of 1896, Bryan, who had become celebrated as an orator, delivered his most famous talk, generally known as the âcross of goldâ speech, in behalf of the bimetallic theory, and received the presidential nomination; he was defeated in the election of that year by the Republican governor of Ohio, William McKinley. During his subsequent career he twice again (1900 and 1908) received the Democratic nomination for president, but on both occasions he was defeated at the polls. In 1901 Bryan founded the

Extractions: William Jennings Bryan William Jennings Bryan fused Populist rhetoric and policies with a new Democratic coalition. In the process became one of Nebraska's and the nation's favorite sons. But, like many early Nebraskans, he was born somewhere else in Illinois in 1860. His father was a lawyer and local politician. Both of his parents were intensely religious, and young William shared their fervor. At the age of 12, he joined the fight for prohibition of alcohol by signing a temperance pledge for school. After high school, attended law school in Chicago and worked in the office of Lyman Trumbull, Abraham Lincoln's friend and a U.S. Senator. Shortly after Bryan began is own law practice, he married Mary Elizabeth Baird. He discovered Nebraska when he visited a law school friend in Lincoln after inspecting land in Iowa owned by his father-in-law. He saw Nebraska as a land of opportunity, and so Bryan moved to Lincoln and set up practice in partnership with his law school friend. William Jennings Bryan in full oratorical splendor. You can see a video history of Bryan's career here . You'll need the QuickTime Player In 1890 just three years after coming here he decided to run for Congress as a Democrat. He was a long shot. No Democrat had ever been elected to Congress in the 20 years of statehood. But Bryan had realized that common people were in desperate financial times, and the Populist Party was probably at the height of its popularity. Bryan picked up some of the same ideas as the Populists. He won the election and became the first Nebraska Democratic Congressman. Bryan won a second term in Congress in 1892.

You have given considerable study to the Bible, haven't you, Mr. Bryan? BRYAN: Yes, sir, I have tried to. DARROW: Well, we all know you have; we are not going to dispute that at all. But you have written and published articles almost weekly, and sometimes have made interpretations of various things. BRYAN: I would not say interpretations, Mr. Darrow, but comments on the lesson. DARROW: If you comment to any extent, those comments have been interpretations? BRYAN: I presume that my discussion might be to some extent interpretations, but they have not been primarily intended as interpretations. DARROW: But you have studied that question, of course? BRYAN: Of what? DARROW: Interpretation of the Bible. BRYAN: On this particular question? DARROW: Yes, sir.

http://www.amconmag.com/2006/2006_07_31/article.html

Extractions: W The American Prospect We might add that a philosophy of raising taxes, hiring more bureaucrats and multiculturalists, keeping the borders open, endorsing gay marriage, cutting defense, and putting more trust in international organizations would seem to be a political loser. Yet Republicans are concerned, and rightfully so, about their party and its prospects. The neoconservatives who dominate the White House have put forth policies on Iraq and immigration that have demoralized and divided even hardcore GOPers. And over on Capitol Hill, the majority party is sick with a different malady, incumbentitis. Time chronicles the subsequent decline of the Democrats, which he blames mainly on the malpractice of political consultants. Beginning with his title, A Godly Hero: The Life of William Jennings Bryan, Ten Days That Shook The World avant-garde The New Yorker Those questions, and that challenge, animated Kazin to write his book. And while some Democrats, such as Jim Wallis, who last year published The Defining Moment dwells instead on the life and times of Northerner Franklin Roosevelt. Its narrow-focus title notwithstanding, the book effectively doubles as a breezy biography, written in an anecdote-rich journalistic style. And since, as Alter reminds us, a quarter of American workers were unemployed in 1932, FDR had little need to concern himself with religious issues. So FDR, as chronicled by his latest biographer-admirer, stuck mainly to politics and economics. And in this same chronicle, the 32nd president is made out to be an antonym of the 43rd president.

Extractions: Alistair McConnachie writes Prosperity, January 2001 The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum (Chicago, 1900) is a parable about Money Reform and the 1890s Midwestern political movement led by William Jennings Bryan (1860-1925); three times candidate for President of the United States (see his poster at bottom of this page). From 1891-1895 Bryan served in the House of Representatives, where he advocated the coinage of silver at a fixed ratio with gold, in order to break the bankers' monopoly and manipulation of the gold-backed currency. Bryan and his supporters accused Eastern banks and railroads of oppressing farmers and industrial workers. Bryan believed that a switch to silver-backed currency would make money plentiful. Although correct, Money Reformers today would argue that money need not, and should not, be backed by either silver or gold, but only by the people, their skills, and their resources In 1896 Bryan delivered the following words at the Democratic National Convention: "Having behind us the producing masses of this nation and the world, supported by the commercial interests, the labouring interests, and the toilers everywhere, we will answer their [

Extractions: See Jeff Taylor speak about Where Did the Party Go? for the Faculty Lecture Series at Rochester College Powerful and engaging. . . . A valuable contribution to our greater understanding of the meaning of the Jeffersonian tradition in American political life. John Rensenbrink, Professor Emeritus of Government, Bowdoin College It doesnt take a pundit to recognize that the Democratic Party has changed. With frustrating losses in the last two national elections and the erosion of its traditional base, the party of Jefferson and Jackson has become something neither would recognize. In this intriguing book, Jeff Taylor looks beyond the shortcomings of individual candidates to focus on the partys real problem: its very philosophical underpinnings have changed in ways that turn off many Americans. Rank-and-file party members may still hold to traditional views, but Taylor argues that those who finance, manage, and represent the party at the national level have become nothing less than Hamiltonian elitistsa stance that flies in the face of the partys bedrock Jeffersonian principles.

Extractions: edit The first meeting held under the auspices of the College of the Political Sciences took place last Saturday evening under the direction of the Social Science Club, when Hon. William Jennings Bryan delivered an eloquent address to the students of the University and their immediate friends on âFaithâ. Mr. Bryan did not make his appearance until 8:15 and pending his arrival the students practiced several yells which they hope to use with good effect during the approaching Georgetown game. Mr. Bryan was introduced by Dean Veditz and in the opening part of his address explained that he was at first disposed to speak especially to the future lawyers but that inasmuch as this would be of particular interest to but a minority of the student body, he had decided to speak on the importance in modern life of faith. âThe thing that is most needed nowadays is faith - first of all, faith in oneself... Next to faith in oneself, which no man can have unless he is physically sound and mentally well-equipped, is faith in oneâs fellow men. I respect," said Mr. Bryan, âthe aristocracy of learning, I fear the plutocracy of wealth but I thank God for the democracy of the heart. The people can be relied on to recognize the truth when they see it. Faith in the people therefore leads to faith in our democratic form of government.â After the address, Mr. Bryan held an impromptu reception and shook hands with a large number of the 800 persons present.

I want to cry and scream and smack the living daylights out of anyone who supports eugenics. Sadly, there still are a few "bio-ethicists" like that out there. My friends are used to watching me froth at the mouth when the topic comes up and they kindly lead me away and sit me down and pat my hand till I'm sane again. Few things are so revolting.
