I’m 43. I used to think there were no presidents who were really on the side of the people. All the presidents that classes focused on had done great things, won great wars, but most made terrible decisions.

Then I discovered Calvin Coolidge, and he changed my life forever. Here are 7 lessons from one of America’s least studied presidents that will change how you look at history: "Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence." Calvin Coolidge taught us that dedication and hard work often outweigh talent or intelligence. Keep going, even when the odds are against you.

Fighting back against violent leftists before it gets to skateboards vs. AR-15s. Rule 1: Power is not only what you have, but what an opponent thinks you have. If your organization is small, hide your numbers in the dark and raise a din that will make everyone think you have many more people than you do.
