Who was Winston Churchill? Why would Americans trust what he has to say about the soviet union

Dima020 [189]
The presidential election of 1828 was a landslide victory for Andrew Jackson.

The Electoral College vote was: 178 Electoral College votes for Jackson, 83 Electoral College votes for Adams. I suppose I would consider that a bit of a landslide victory.
