Me too

Same

@Wise and Free Nah I'd say it's kinda the opposite happening. In a way.

@Wise and Free Because mr beat said that it's not the most important election of our lifetime and still Trump says it is.

@@abrahamlincoln937 ironic.

+Morgan Kingsley Woah, that's fascinating. Did you come up with that on your own?

A lot of reading around on different internet websites. On 1896's page for Wikipedia, it shows Bryan with 22 states and McKinley with 23, and seeing how close Kentucky was I noticed the state thing on my own. Then later on a different source (just checked and it was the 1908 election results) I read that in 1896, Bryan won 1,559 counties, which in those days was about 56 percent, the raw number I didn't find on my own but the percentage I did on my own. This comes to show how close the election actually was and that once again, the electoral vote is wildly deceiving.

My State was important!! Yay!

@@FlyinBlaney not so much anymore

Noted. Make sure those states keep voting republican.

Probably too young to become president tbh

He's the youngest to recieve a nomination from one of two parties for a presidential election.

B R AOC would be 35 years and 3 weeks old at the general election. It’d be pretty hard to get younger then that.

@@landon.m I wasn't sure how old he was circa 1896, all I knew was that the main stipulations for a legitimate Presidential candidate are being at least 35 years old, born in the USA (cue song reference) and been a resident of the United States for at least 14 years

The Democrats were still socially conservative under Bryan, while the Republican were still socially liberal/progressive/libertarian. Byran just forced the Democrats to change their economic message.

Their relative economic positions were actually the same but were recalibrated to account for the changing conditions in the world. The economic agenda of the 19th Century Republicans wasn’t based around creating social justice but protecting and bolstering the national economy through some critically applied mercantilist policy. A tradition that has come to be known as the American School of economics that started with Alexander Hamilton and implemented by later heavyweights like Abraham Lincoln. Business owners large and small consistently supported them before and after they started adopting a more hands off approach when they thought further interference in the economy would just get in the way. The Democrats of the 19th Century supported less government interference in the economy when the country was still mostly agrarian and opposed the policies of the Republicans because they felt it was more to the benefit of big business than anyone else. Them wanting to keep what they saw as the oppressive force of industry out of their communities. Democratic icons like Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson were famous for fighting economic elites including bankers and speculators whom supported the Federalists and Whigs who served as forerunners to the modern GOP. Even Grover Cleveland, arguably the most business friendly Democratic President there ever was, held to the policy of not getting in the way of big business but also not providing them government support as the Gilded Age Republicans had been doing. It was because of the Gilded Age which saw a boom in big business’ scope and presence that you had Democrats like William Jennings Bryan decide that the only way to curb corporate power was the use of government power. And it was only after that you saw the Republican Theodore Roosevelt start a counter-movement promoting more moderate reform in order to cut them at the pass and hold the country together. British politics evolved similarly around roughly the same time. The conservative Tories under leaders like Benjamin Disraeli were more economically interventionist than the Liberal Party represented by men like William Gladstone which was very hands off. It was similarly after the Industrial Revolution that the mainline British left felt that government power could be used to help the working person rather than just maintain the power of the elites which led to the Liberal Party giving way to the Labor Party. Like with the Republicans you would see leaders in the Conservative Party like Winston Churchill support moderate reform policy seen as necessary to keep the radicals from attaining power. People will often debate about whether or not the parties switched, but in terms of their underlying economic dynamic I’d argue that ultimately they didn’t really. And while we’re at it that how they approached social policy was often influenced by who they thought they could get to support their economic agenda. At the founding of the country it was poor often rural whites who were framed by the precursors to the Democrats as the oppressed underclass to more well off city folk and wealthy business moguls in the Northeast. But as the agricultural population with the urban centers fully developed and minority populations grew they shifted to adopting a new base of people who felt dispossessed while the South’s industrialization made it more amenable to embracing the business friendly Republican Party.

Liberal economics mean lower taxes and deregulation of economy and Republicans are liberals. There is not such thing as "conservative economy". Democrats are economically divided. Blue dogs are liberals, mainstream democrats are liberal or mixed economy, left wing "justice democrats" are keynesians and DSA are socialist.

@@12KevinPower best combination ever

This is wrong. The Republican party was always fiscally conservative and remains such to this day. Until the 1970s they were socially progressive, now they are very socially conservative. The Democratic party had two fiscal factions: One was the business minded classical liberals, the other were southern and western populists who supported the 'common man' ideal. Nowadays the Democrats are fiscally and socially progressive and gradually did so from 1932 all the way to today.

Bryan is basically like what Trump is doing to today's Republican Party. Trump basically forced the Republicans to move away from Global NeoConservatism to National Protectionism. Bryan forced the Democrats to move away from Economic Liberatarianism to Economic Populism.

I never thought Reagan was anywhere neaar a saint, but compared to that insurrection-inspiring cultish mrgalomanic...😠

@@12KevinPower I would argue that the 1912 election marked the completion of the transition from classical liberalism in the Democratic Party to modern liberalism.

Same world, just different cameras

This was nearly at the turn of the century. Not 1824 or anything.

@@lightningbolt4419 I see what he means though. That could easily be a picture from the early 50s or something

McKinley is older so he fits better

True. It all has to do with the transition from classical liberalism to modern liberalism. If we look at it from the early nineteenth century until the present day, we could say that classical liberalism transitioned into welfare liberalism (as we see under FDR), and then welfare liberalism to neoliberalism (as we could say we see under Bill Clinton).

Spot on.

I think in the American context at least industrialization played a big role in the flip on the use of federal power. Back in the day business owners gladly supported the infrastructure projects of Federalists, Conscience Whigs and Lincolnian Republicans as means to broaden the horizons of their business opportunities. Anti-economic elites populists among the Jeffersonian Republicans and Jacksonian Democrats opposed such efforts because they didn’t want to put American communities under the heel of big businesses. Thinking that it was easier to maintain relative equality in a world of yeoman farmers largely held to one particular plot of land than in one filled with massive corporations that could transcend state if not national lines. The Federalist lineage hoped to encourage enterprise that would lead to innovation that could improve society as a whole while the Democratic tradition did not think that the more complicated social hierarchies that would come with industrialization and urbanization were worth it. When industrialization inevitably became widespread that’s when you saw the modern Republicans loosen up as the purposes of their policies were largely fulfilled. On the other hand you can see a close correlation to the Democrats embracing federal power in proportion to the growth of industry in the country as a means to curb corporate power. The circumstances of the world each party found themselves in changed more than their core convictions and that led to shifts in their voting constituencies who had their own reasons for doing so based upon the pivots in policy.

Well classical liberalism is basically like libertarianism.

@@ShowginTV Well modern liberalism started under Woodrow Wilson who paved the way for the rise of FDR and LBJ. LBJ’s presidency marking the peak of modern liberalism in the US. Clinton and Obama and currently Biden are neoliberals.
