More from Charles Lindbergh
"The Jewish problem is a serious one, and it must be addressed."
"The white man has a responsibility to maintain his racial integrity."
"I have said that the Jewish race was not American. That is true. They are not American. They are a separate race."
"The fundamental issue now is whether we go into war or stay out."
"I have seen the science I worshiped, and the aircraft I loved, destroying the civilization I expected them to serve."
About Charles Lindbergh (1902-1974)
American aviator who completed the first solo nonstop transatlantic flight (Spirit of St. Louis, May 1927) and later led the isolationist America First Committee against US entry into WWII. Closely associated with Amelia Earhart (aviation contemporary). For an intellectual contrast, see Franklin D. Roosevelt, 32nd US President — FDR's interventionist Lend-Lease policy and 1941 declaration of war ended Lindbergh's America First isolationism; FDR publicly questioned Lindbergh's loyalty in April 1941, leading Lindbergh to resign his Air Corps Reserve commission. The cleanest 'interventionist president vs celebrity-isolationist' pairing in 20th-century US politics.
