Grover Cleveland may have been our best president. He has two nicknames: the "honest president" and the "veto president." He consistently fought Congress on spending, once vetoing 404 bills in a row. He kept us out of war, hated tariffs, and according to Wikipedia: "His admirers praise him for his bedrock honesty, independence, integrity, and commitment to the principles of classical liberalism. As a leader of the Bourbon Democrats, he opposed imperialism, taxes, corruption, patronage, subsidies and inflationary policies."
It doesn't matter what label, Democrat or Republican, we put on people. America simply needs more Grover Cleveland's. People who don't believe in the coercive power of the state, and people who neither want to wage constant war or continue to erode the value or your dollar. Come back, Grover, we need you.
