Excerpt from The Tale of a Fox: As Kansans Know Alfred M. Landon
He is said to have jumped up on a settee and started to sing.
And then Hell broke loose and a scandal shook the state house dome.
Balancing and juggling are very similar physical feats and maybe Landon and his crew got the words mixed.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the political career of Alfred Landon, a two-term Governor of Kansas who gained national prominence as the Republican presidential candidate in 1936. The author meticulously presents evidence that, contrary to carefully crafted media portrayals, Landon's rise to power was propelled by questionable political alliances, manipulation, and unscrupulous tactics. The book analyzes Landon's tenure as Governor, exposing his role in the "Bond Scandal" that shook Kansas in the 1930s. The author argues that Landon's claims of budget balancing were largely due to federal spending on public works and relief programs. The author challenges the prevailing narrative surrounding Landon's image, revealing a sharp contrast between his carefully constructed public persona and his actual actions as a politician. This book provides a critical examination of the political strategies and personal motivations that shaped Landon's career, shedding light on the realities behind the facade of respectability often attributed to him.
