That day, a guest arrived at Donnie's estate in Atlantic City, and Donnie warmly welcomed him.
The Governor of Kansas State, Alf Landon.
Alf Landon is also the Republican Party's candidate for President of the United States this year.
This year is another election year in the United States, and the Republican Party has been painstakingly searching for a suitable candidate!
Herbert Hoover?
Definitely not, that name evokes painful memories.
Borah?
He does have strong public support, especially in the West, but he is unorthodox financially, and he's too old, too independent, making control difficult.
Frank Knox from Chicago?
Vandenberg from Michigan?
All these names were crossed out by the Republican Party.
As the national convention in Cleveland approached, the Republican Party finally settled on a candidate, Kansas State Governor Alf Landon.
