I will say this; The man who should have been (R) president was Thomas Dewey! Master Crime fighter who was trying to take down the Mafia!
Thomas Edmund Dewey (March 24, 1902 – March 16, 1971) was an American lawyer, prosecutor, and politician who served as the
47th governor of New York from 1943 to 1954. He was the
Republican nominee for president in
1944 and
1948.As a New York City prosecutor and
District Attorney in the 1930s and early 1940s, Dewey was relentless in his effort to curb the power of the
American Mafia and of
organized crime in general. Most famously, he successfully prosecuted Mafioso
kingpin Charles "Lucky" Luciano on charges of
forced prostitution in 1936. Luciano was given a 30- to 50-year prison sentence. He also prosecuted and convicted
Waxey Gordon, another prominent New York City gangster and
bootlegger, on charges of
tax evasion. Dewey almost succeeded in apprehending
mobster Dutch Schultz as well, but Schultz was murdered in 1935 in a hit ordered by
The Commission itself; he had disobeyed The Commission's order forbidding him from making an attempt on Dewey's life.Dewey led the moderate faction of the
Republican Party during the 1940s and 1950s, in opposition to conservative Ohio Senator
Robert A. Taft. Dewey was an advocate for the professional and business community of the Northeastern United States, which would later be called the
Eastern Establishment. This group consisted of
internationalists who were in favor of the United Nations and the
Cold War fight against
communism and the
Soviet Union, and it supported most of the
New Deal social-welfare reforms enacted during the administration of Democrat
Franklin D. Roosevelt.Dewey served as the 47th governor of New York from 1943 to 1954.
He really had his **** together!
