Cross of Gold Speech - William Jennings Bryan

This quote was added by malevolarky
We care not upon what lines the battle is fought. If they say bimetallism is good but we cannot have it until some nation helps us, we reply that, instead of having a gold standard because England has, we shall restore bimetallism, and then let England have bimetallism because the United States have.
