After making his calculations on the Presidential election in 1928,
Robert sent the following Forecast to Mr. Kennelworth:
July 20, 1927.
1928 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION
In order to determine the conditions that will prevail during 1928
and who will be elected, we must look up past cycles. I refer you to
Ecclesiastes 3:15--"That which hath been is now and that which is to
be hath already been, and God requireth that which is past."
We know that we are repeating past cycles as referred to in Ezekiel's
Prophecy--Chapter 20:46--"Son of man set thy face toward the south,
and drop thy word toward the south, and prophesy against the forest
of the south field, and say to the forest of the south, Hear the word
of the Lord, Thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I will kindle a fire in
thee and it shall devour every green tree in thee and every dry tree,
the flaming flame shall not be quenched, and all faces from the south
to the north shall be burned therein."
The troubles in Nicaragua, the destructive floods and storms which
have visited Florida, and the destruction by the floods along the
Mississippi during the past Spring all show that troubles are starting
in the south. We are in a cycle which will repeat and cause wars which
will start from the south and southwest, probably Mexico. All of these
events will have a great bearing on the Presidential election in 1928,
because war will be in the air and the people will be very much upset.
As referred to in Exodus 32:17--"And when Joshua heard the noise of
the people as they shouted, he said unto Moses, There is a noise of
war in the camp." There will be political wars and revolutionary
changes in the United States in 1928. People will want to choose new
leaders. Read Judges 5:8--"They chose new gods; then was war within
the gates: was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in
Israel?" The people will need to choose an able leader to prepare for
the great war in the air.
I have made a study of President Coolidge's date of birth, name and
numbers. He is the strongest man that the Republicans have, but he
has not wanted to accept the nomination and will probably not if
he can get out of it. He has the best chance of any Republican for
being elected. Along about March or April, 1928, some important event
will happen which is likely to cause President Coolidge to refuse
to accept the nomination. When the convention meets in June or July
there will be long delays, dissatisfaction and fights among the old
Republican leaders as to whom they will nominate. From the cycle that
we are repeating, there is a strong indication that President Coolidge
will not be renominated. He will do something which will cause large
financial interests and moneyed men to withdraw their support from him.
Since God requires that which is past, then past cycles and events
in the history of the United States must repeat. We look up the
names and dates of birth to determine when certain names or initial
letters should repeat. The letter "C" is one which repeats in events
of the United States as shown by the election of Grover Cleveland the
second time in 1892. President Calvin Coolidge, with the "C" strong
in both names, succeeded President Harding, August 2, 1923, and was
elected in 1924. This was really a repetition of the letter "C" the
same as Cleveland's second election, and in view of the fact that
President Coolidge has served about 6 years, the letter "C" is not
due to repeat its vibration in 1928, but might repeat in 1932 when
President Coolidge could possibly be elected again following the war
and troublesome times.
The most favorable letters for the Republican Party which could repeat
in 1928 are B, J, F, and L. In view of the cycle which indicates war
from 1928 to 1932, there is a strong indication that the letter "L"
will repeat as it did during the Civil War when Lincoln was President.
This might mean the nomination of Borah, Butler, Johnson or Lowden. I
haven't the dates of birth of any of these men, therefore, am unable
to say before the nominations take place and we know whom their
opponents will be, whether any of them would be elected or not.
In regard to the Democratic nomination, the cycle indicates a strong
possibility of victory for the Democrats or a new party. Governor
Alfred Smith is not likely to be nominated and if nominated would not
be elected. The letter "S" has never appeared in the surname of any
president of the United States, and as we are only due to repeat past
events, he has a very slim chance of being elected.
The letters F, M and R are due to repeat for the Democrats. This
might mean Ford, McAdoo or Reed. According to the date of birth,
cycle and numbers, McAdoo would have a much better chance of getting
the nomination than Smith. Reed looks stronger than either of them.
Governor Smith will continue popular and the possibilities of him
being nominated will look promising until about May, 1928, when there
will be a sudden change of public opinion against him. Support will
be withdrawn and some of the strong Democratic leaders will turn to
other possible candidates. Smith's name will no doubt come before the
convention, but I see no chance of him being nominated.
There is a strong indication that the man who will be nominated will
be a "dark horse," a man probably born in May or June. Revolutionary
changes are indicated. The question of the 18th Amendment is likely to
split both of the old parties. A farm and labor party or some other
political party may spring up and defeat both of the old parties. The
public will be very much divided and sentiment will be badly mixed in
the summer and fall of 1928.
With the present data in hand and the events that are to follow the
next Presidential election, my judgment is that a Republican will
not be elected. The President who takes office in March, 1929, will
start under very unfavorable conditions similar to those which faced
President Wilson at the time he entered his second term and also
conditions will repeat similar to those that followed the election
of Abraham Lincoln in 1861. There will be trouble with foreign
countries over immigration laws. Tariff will be a sore spot and cause
disagreements with foreign countries.
I will have my calculations made up for the stock and commodity
markets for 1928 and 1929 soon and when they are completed will send
a copy of them. There will be some big opportunities for long pull
trading in stocks and commodities during 1928. I want you to be in on
the deals with me and hope I can help you make a million dollars.
