Chapter 489 Republican Candidates

From the beginning of the financial crisis to now, there have been some changes in the United States. For example, the number of strikes and crackdowns has increased a lot. When it comes to issues such as strikes and counter-strikes, most entrepreneurs will subconsciously make the only choice: suppression.

Of course, because of different regions, the specific focus is also quite different. In places where Sheffield's media can have an influence, such problems are all attributed to ethnic issues. The consequence is that racial violence has become even higher in places where it is already high.

This kind of newspaper focuses on two points. If a white person commits a violent act, for example, in New Orleans, the news is like this: "Today, an unprecedented isolated incident occurred in our city. A person who is naturally lonely and has no friends shot and injured a stranger. Citizens do not need to panic because this is an isolated incident."

If the target is a black person, the report will be like this: "The black person, who is full of violence, brutally killed innocent citizens. Just as we often remind you, at any time and in any place, you must stay away from these black people who are inherently violent. For your own safety, be wary of all black people."

Since the financial crisis, this kind of news has appeared in newspapers every day. The most important thing is to make citizens who see this kind of news accept it instead of being angry. The initial brainwashing work is completed. When disgust becomes instinct, Sheffield's goal is half achieved.

Now the slave owner was not sure how far things had progressed, but he felt that since similar news would appear in the newspapers every day from now until the election, it would definitely be useful.

"Gail has done a good job here!" Natalia came out of the pool like a lotus flower, with her golden hair sticking to her fair skin. From the surface of Puerto Rico, she looked quite good. She walked to Sheffield's side, letting the man make room for her and sat down. Her plump buttocks were squeezed, just facing Sheffield's downward gaze.

"It's all about money." Sheffield stretched out his dirty hands and said lazily, "The more prosperous a place is on the surface, the less likely it is to be noticed. The Germans all know how to fight for the land under the sun, and I am the same."

Since Gale mentioned the Germans once, Sheffield mentioned the word Germany more often. As the saying goes, the deeper the love, the deeper the hatred. Once the middle school students who were once obsessed with "Long Live the Führer" got rid of that middle school, they would behave like slave owners and dislike everything about Germany.

But even so, he still wanted to be friends with the Germans, even though the hypocrisy of the Germans was no less than that of the Japanese, and even though the means by which this nation concealed its purpose were shocking. But considering the other party's strong strength, plus he needed help from them, this was not a problem. If necessary, he could shout a few times that Germany was above all else. In the end, it was still a matter of money. If you want the slave owners to do things, you have to pay more.

"Here's a grape for you!" Natalia picked a grape and put it to Sheffield's mouth, which almost made Sheffield's nature as a slave owner and a bootlicker come out. In this environment of sunshine and beach, surrounded by beautiful women, Sheffield had the wrong impression that he would not be at a loss even if he died.

After this year's operation, Puerto Rico has become more and more regular. The number of people who want independence is getting smaller and smaller. It all comes down to money. It's good to be able to survive. Is it worth risking your life for that so-called ideal?

Gail also mentioned this issue. Sheffield said, "The Rockefeller family has a famous saying: 90% is not enough, we need 100%. In fact, it is not impossible to calm Puerto Rico down. The living conditions here may not be as good as those in China, but they must be better than those in neighboring Honduras and Colombia. Our United States must at least reach the status of Britain and Germany, so that no one can drive us away."

Colonization is also a matter of taste. We must give the greatest support to our allies around our biggest enemies, such as establishing several models next to the Soviet Union and the Republic. However, we must be submissive to the outside world and strike hard at home. It is best if the American countries are as miserable as possible. For Puerto Rico and Panama, it is enough for them to live a little better than other American countries. They do not need to develop very well.

So when there was a famine, the worst that could happen was to eat bananas. If they still couldn't survive after eating all the bananas, then the kind Sheffield would need to donate food to help these poor people survive. In this way, they would not be blamed, and they would have to thank the slave owners.

Coming to take a look at the casino run by Gail and walking among the beautiful women, Sheffield rejected Gail's invitation to try something new. The slave owner still needs to keep some seeds to carry on. For Gail, the more the better, but for Sheffield, the current priority is to treat everyone equally. He cannot be so selfish and must think about the feelings of the women.

When they slept together at night, Sheffield was glad that his decision was correct. The two beautiful faces sleeping on the left and right sides were smiling. According to tomorrow's ratio, it should be the Russo-Japanese War. Sato Kiko has a different charm from Evelyn and Natalia.

But getting Natalia to cooperate with him would require some persuasion. As for the business in Puerto Rico, no matter where the guests came from, they would be treated like gods here.

The domestic warm-up for the election had actually begun. Among the many Republican candidates, there was no Roosevelt. Roosevelt was not planning to run for election again. Instead, he was looking for a suitable agent who could continue to practice his ideas. Eventually, Taft, the first civilian governor-general of the Philippines, fell into Roosevelt's sight.

Taft had several very notable characteristics, such as his father, Alphonso Taft, who was Secretary of War and Attorney General during the presidency of Ulysses S. Grant.

This advantage alone was already very significant. The direction of domestic public opinion had changed, and Roosevelt could feel it. The racial problems between whites and blacks were becoming more and more obvious. Citizens did not understand the source of all this, but as president, he could certainly trace it back to a super-large enterprise.

In addition, economic issues can no longer be used as a propaganda point, and the only way for the Republican Party to gain the opportunity to continue to govern is through the rule of law and victory over the trusts. Therefore, it seems that the best way is to bring forward the descendant of a war hero, use his political influence, and find a trustworthy person to be president.

During Roosevelt's presidency, he entrusted many important affairs to his close friend Taft. Taft was born in an official family. After graduating from Yale University, he worked as a lawyer and a state high court judge. Taft was a loyal person who always acted according to principles and was his capable butler.

Since it was unlikely that he would be re-elected in the face of both overt and covert pressure, Roosevelt prepared to have a good talk with Taft. On this day in the White House, Roosevelt formally expressed his hope that Taft would run for president. "Don't hesitate, William. While there is still time to sign up, I will fully support you in running for president. You are a judge who is loyal to the rule of law. During this term, I have been attacked by many companies. You have seen it all. Only people who are loyal to the law can help citizens get rid of those greedy trusts."

"President, are you really not going to continue the campaign?" Taft was a little surprised. He had known Roosevelt for a long time, and naturally knew that in addition to his strong style, this president also had a desire for power that most people did not know about, but few people could detect it. He always thought that Roosevelt would strive for a third term. After all, the first presidential term actually belonged to William McKinley, so if he wanted to play a marginal ball, it would be okay.

"No, I hope not to clash with big business at election time. And unity within the Republican Party." Roosevelt said calmly, "I am very nervous about your campaign, just as if I were running for election myself. Distribute national wealth more equitably, regulate giant companies and railroads, strengthen labor rights, and protect the country's natural resources from private exploitation. Only you are the most suitable candidate, and I am willing to be your biggest supporter."

"Theodore!" Taft looked at Roosevelt's sincere face and didn't know what to say for a moment. Finally, he nodded solemnly, indicating that he was willing to come out and give it a try.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The two met in their thirties, when Roosevelt headed the Civil Service Commission and Taft was the U.S. Attorney General. They lived in the same area of ​​Washington, their wives knew each other, and some of their children were born around the same time. Over the years, their friendship deepened, and he never expected that this time Roosevelt would want him to run for president.

One of the new Republican candidates has emerged. The news reached Puerto Rico by telegram. When Evelyn knocked on the door with the telegram, she opened the door and saw Sato Kyoko nibbling on him while the latter shyly avoided the crowd. She said helplessly, "William, this is a telegram from China. Can you please not act like a bull in heat? It's like Roosevelt publicly announced his support for Taft's election."

Sheffield's clever IQ finally took over the high ground. He woke up from the bull state in rutting described by Evelyn, let go of Sato Kyoko's weak body, and said to himself, "Taft, good, it's better if Roosevelt doesn't come out on his own."

"Is this any different from Roosevelt running for election himself?" Evelyn sighed. Her man didn't seem very smart when he was in heat.

"Two people are just two people. There is no such thing as a close relationship between them." Sheffield said disdainfully.
