I believe that Harmon would be the easiest to defeat, though he might gain much strength from the Republicans. Clark would surely ...lose New York. I am beginning to feel that by some stroke of genius they may name Woodrow Wilson, and that seems a pretty hard tussle.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

Wilson adventured for the whole of the human race. Not as a servant, but as a champion.
