"Yes, of course!" Before little Morgan could speak, little Rockefeller nodded immediately. He really didn't want to continue hearing about his children's affair. This was the right thing. He should hurry up and get into the rhythm of changing the world.

Otherwise, it would be a joke if word spread that three of the most powerful business owners in the United States would make detours around this matter.

Rockefeller Jr. directly pointed out where he could take action, "The voting results can only be used as a reference for public opinion. The candidates selected at the party representative meeting are the legitimate candidates."

Sheffield nodded, understanding what Rockefeller Jr. meant. At present, what can really select a presidential candidate is the members of the national committees of the two parties, not the so-called opinions of voters.

Even the policy still has remnants a hundred years later. Otherwise, how could Sanders be killed by Xiba?

As a member of the Democratic National Committee, Sheffield was also part of this representation system. So when Rockefeller Jr. said it, Sheffield understood what he meant.

"But how can we stop it? Roosevelt has huge prestige. Taft failed to win the election last time. It can be said that Roosevelt has no opponent within the Republican Party. You want to prevent the Republican Party from nominating Roosevelt?" Sheffield shook his head and expressed no hope for this.

.

Historically, the Republican Party split because the Republican Party continued to nominate Taft. Roosevelt was dissatisfied with this and formed a party to split the Republican Party. At that time, Taft had served as president for one term, and there was a reason for the Republican Party to continue to support him? What about now? There are differences within the Republican Party.

Why not support Roosevelt?

"There are many problems. The issue of tariffs is an operable issue. It has been done this way for decades." Morgan Jr. explained on the sidelines, "High tariffs are a policy that the Republican Party has been pursuing for decades, and it was formed with the low tariff policy of the Democratic Party."

A sharp contrast. As for the tariff issue, judging from the information we have collected, it is no longer the issue that the people are most concerned about. But for the Republican Party, it is still an issue of faith."

"So what to do?" Sheffield scratched his scalp and looked at the two giants with expectant eyes. "Forcibly appoint a conservative in the Republican Party who advocates high tariffs through your agent as the presidential candidate for the election.

Roosevelt was put to death in an internal meeting?"

Supporting high tariffs has always been one of the policy beliefs of the Republican Party. Even the progressive chief Roosevelt was silent on this. Rockefeller Jr. and Morgan Jr. seemed to want to link the increase in tariffs with the conservatives of the Republican Party to distract the Republican Party.

The effect of strength.

"You want to split the Republican Party?" Sheffield asked after listening for a long time. "Will the Republicans agree?"

"We only need to blow some wind on some small and medium-sized enterprises. In fact, we can also find ways to kick Roosevelt out of the Republican Party." Rockefeller Jr. explained that in fact, the level of tariffs is no longer a big deal for enterprises of their size.

Problems can always be solved, so there is no need to take direct action on this matter.

Sheffield didn't need to wait for the official election to know what the Democratic Party's policy was. It was nothing more than maintaining low tariffs to increase domestic competitiveness. High tariffs were a barrier to protect trust companies.

In terms of power distribution, although the Democratic Party has been in charge of the federal government for four years, it still advocates protecting the rights of states.

"Do you have a candidate?" Sheffield lazily leaned on the sofa, thinking about the proposals of the two successful partners, and also thinking about how to increase the Democratic Party's advantage. In fact, there is no way.

We should start with women’s suffrage. Edith Rockefeller happened to have some connections with the women’s movement. Sheffield felt that this matter could be brought up by the Democratic Party. Anyway, this election is definitely impossible to succeed, but the appeal is still It can influence a large number of people.

The Democratic Party has always been known for being conservative, especially when it comes to dealing with people of color. It is impossible to talk about anything being allowed, but when it comes to dealing with women, the Democratic Party is not unable to appeal.

"We support La Follette, who is a congressman from Wisconsin, and will also give some hints to some conservatives in the Republican Party. If they choose Roosevelt to run on behalf of the Republican Party, then from now on, our close relationship with the Republican Party will be over. ." Little Morgan gently knocked on the table and said, "Everyone knows how long we have supported the Republican Party."

"It's indeed been a long time, and it's been like this since the Civil War." Sheffield said sarcastically, "I'm not blaming anything. If it were me, I would support it. It's just that the composition of our companies is different. Of course, I believe that as time goes by, we will form a harmonious environment, and the opinions of both sides will become more or less the same."

A hundred years from now, the Republican Party and the Democratic Party will not actually be so different. They will quarrel over trivial matters every day. They are all very general and illusory issues, such as big government and small government, abortion and anti-abortion, big government, etc. The directions are surprisingly consistent, there is no difference at all.

"I'm going to Washington to call." Sheffield nodded in approval after hearing the two people's thoughts.

The problem in this election is actually bigger on the Democratic side. This can be attributed to the troubles of the winner. Alton Parker has been president for one term. If there is no big problem, how can he just change him?

Therefore, the top priority now is to understand the extent of the president's physical condition and whether it will affect the confidence of voters. This is something that needs to be clarified urgently.

But before leaving New York, Sheffield felt that there was still something to do. Alice Roosevelt had already returned to New York. Sheffield's visit this time was to figure out whether she could take the wife route, hoping that Alice Roosevelt would persuade her father. Don't come out to damage the environment again.

"Alice, to be honest, I respect your father very much, but I don't want him to be president again. He has already caused huge troubles to many of our companies. Not many companies want to come back. When he was president." Sheffield squatted in front of Alice Roosevelt, holding the woman's hand and said, "Can you persuade your father to leave politics completely? As a businessman, I shouldn't tell you the matter, but I hope you understand that if your father decides to come back this time, his enemies will be extremely powerful and will use any means to prevent him from succeeding in the election."

"Who are you? You are a supporter of the Democratic Party. Who else besides you?" Alice Roosevelt asked, looking at the man squatting in front of her.

"I won't say it, I can only say that they are all people similar to me." Sheffield hesitated, "It's not our fault that we have wealth, and it cannot be said that it is our fault that we want to keep this wealth. We

We can face competition from foreign companies because it can be dealt with, but antitrust laws will cause permanent damage to us. We cannot accept this kind of competition using political means."

"You rich people can do anything for money, how can you still want to kill my father?" Alice Roosevelt looked at Sheffield intently, "He is my father and the grandfather of our son.

.”

"I will not use assassination methods, although in fact I am better at it than anyone else." Sheffield lowered his head and squeezed Alice Roosevelt's little hand, "But it is not just me in the country, there are many, many people who have it.

The ability to make a person disappear from the world, and it was knowing this that I wanted President Roosevelt to give up politics."

Alice Roosevelt was stunned. She did not expect that the matter was so serious, and asked, "You heard something about it, right? William."

"No, but when Mr. William Bryan and William McKinley were running for president, I once thought about assassinating the president. I never told anyone about this. At that time, other companies begged me to prevent Mr. William Bryan from taking office.

” Sheffield gave Alice Roosevelt an explosive answer that the president’s life was not as important as people thought.

"My father is too stubborn, how could he listen to me." Alice Roosevelt was a little distressed, looking at Sheffield with an unprecedented helplessness, "I can't even imagine that anyone can convince him, if he can

If you are persuaded, you will no longer be President Roosevelt."

"Actually, I also know this, I just want to struggle." Sheffield said with a wry smile, "I thought I could control the development of things, but I never dreamed that President Alton Parker's body

Health problems turned out to be the biggest test. If I had known about it, I might not have been able to do anything about it, because I couldn't find a suitable candidate at that time. Except for President Alton Parker himself, only William Bryan was qualified.

If I get the nomination, should I use money to bribe all the Democratic committee members and nominate someone who no one knows to run? In that case, the Democratic Party will become a joke in the eyes of citizens across the country."

It is not as easy as you think to change some things. It seems that history has changed since Alton Parker came to power, but now that things are turning around, there seems to be a trend of tightening the timeline.

Even now, there are not many options left for slave owners. Now Sheffield thinks, it is better to fight another civil war.

"If we lose the election this time, it is not unacceptable to have another civil war." Sheffield stood at the door of Wilson's house, hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to go in. Peace can still be saved.

"You want me to announce my candidacy for president?" Wilson looked at Sheffield in surprise. This was really beyond his expectation.
