Question 45

He believed sincerely in reincarnation and thought himself to have been a soldier killed at the battle of Gettysburg. Narrowly defeated when he ran for a seat in the U.S. Senate, he was a leading candidate for president in public-opinion polls for several years.
He was a shameful and vocal anti-Semite who achieved the highly dubious distinction of becoming the only American mentioned by name in Adolf Hitler's book, Mein Kampf. At the same time, he directed that jobs at his company be set aside for African-Americans, women, and the disabled.
He was mesmerized by the sound and sight of falling water, and deeply impressed by the writing and philosophy of Ralph Waldo Emerson - or at least his understanding of it. He also had a "voracious appetite for reading stories in the newspaper about himself," one biographer wrote.
