Overview

""Democratic National Convention"" is a comprehensive official record documenting the proceedings and platform of the 1928 Democratic National Convention held in Houston, Texas. This significant political document provides a detailed account of the sessions that led to the nomination of Alfred E. Smith for President and Joseph T. Robinson for Vice President. As a primary source for early 20th-century American political history, it captures the debates, voting tallies, and official speeches that shaped the party's direction during a pivotal election cycle. The text includes the complete party platform, addressing key issues of the era such as prohibition, labor rights, and economic policy. Compiled by Charles A. Greathouse, the Secretary of the Democratic National Committee, this work offers an unfiltered look into the mechanics of party governance and the strategic positioning of the Democratic Party in the late 1920s. It serves as an essential resource for historians, political scientists, and readers interested in the evolution of American democracy and the historic nomination of the first Roman Catholic candidate by a major party.
