Calvin Coolidge, the 30th president of the United States, was known for his taciturn nature and homespun wit. He was also a man of deep convictions and strong principles. Born in Plymouth, Vermont, in 1872, Coolidge grew up in a small town with a strong sense of community. He attended Amherst College and then studied law at Boston University. After serving as a city attorney and mayor of Northampton, Massachusetts, Coolidge was elected to the Massachusetts Senate in 1899. He served as governor of Massachusetts from 1919 to 1921, and as vice president from 1921 to 1923. After the death of President Warren G. Harding in 1923, Coolidge became president.
Coolidge was a conservative Republican who believed in limited government and free markets. He was also a strong supporter of the rule of law and individual liberty. During his presidency, Coolidge oversaw a period of economic prosperity and stability. He signed the Revenue Act of 1924, which reduced taxes and stimulated economic growth. He also signed the Immigration Act of 1924, which restricted immigration from Southern and Eastern Europe. Coolidge's foreign policy was based on isolationism. He believed that the United States should stay out of foreign entanglements.
