Below is a political opinion column by Russ Latino:
Calvin Coolidge slashed spending and the national debt. He cut taxes and championed American business. Coolidge ushered in the unbridled success of the Roaring 20s, and yet, he’s forgotten.

Coolidge looked at her, expression unchanged, and replied, “you lose.”
