Remembering Upton Sinclair and the race of 1934. Quotable:

[Upton Sinclair] was a classic bohemian, subsisting mostly on brown rice, fruit and celery and so idealistic that journalist H.L. Mencken identified him as believing in more things than any other man alive.

Sounds a bit like Governor Davis, except for the bohemian and idealism parts.
