Alf Landon

About the Project

Part 2 of the 3 part series for reThink Topeka (which I guess as of right now is reThink Google, more on that in a possible blog).

This painting is of Alf Landon, governor of Kansas and the poor individual who tried to get in the way of FDRs reelection in 1936. Landon was Republican nominee for President, but he was bowled over by the unstoppable force that was Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the solution to the great depression and the saviour to everyone living in that generation. Landon lost the election by nearly 10 million votes.
