Throughout we have deferred to the wishes of the United Auto Workers, i.e. we have resisted all temptation to affect their decisions on what would be an acceptable level of employee contribution. Even when we knew Lugar had 9 votes out of 15 in the Committee, we did not pressure the UAW. Even though we are certain that the $400 million employee contribution is not enough for those who want to see the UAW members agree to make a painful sacrifice, even though we feel the end product is likely to be something like a $600 million employee contribution, we have kept our counsel to ourselves_. Instead we've met often with Howard Paster, Tommy Boggs, Jim O'Hara and Bill Hathaway hoping against hope that reality might break through.

Al Smith: An Analysis of Anti-Catholicism in the 1928 Presidential Election Abstract In lieu of an abstract, below is the essay's first paragraph. "With few exceptions, the details of past presidential elections are largely forgotten over the course of history. As specific campaigns and elections become more distant from contemporary society, people tend to focus on the larger picture of what that election produced, mainly, who actually became the president. And for the majority of the American public, the presidential election of 1928 is no exception to this. But as Allan Lichtman suggests in his book Prejudice and the Old Politics: The Presidential Election of 1928, ―Presidential elections are central events of American politics, often bearing the detailed imprint of the society in which they occur.
