'''Grover Steven Cleveland''' '''(March 18, 1837 - June 24, 1908)''' was the 22nd and 24th [[President of the United States]], and was very uniquely the only President to serve two non-consecutive terms. He was the only [[Democrat]] elected to the Presidency in the Republican dynasty that lasted from 1850s to when [[Roosevelt]] was President, as a result of the Democratic failure to win the [[American Civil War]]. Many contemporary politicians praise him for his commitment to [[conservative]] thinking. Much like modern conservatives he opposed imperialism, corruption, patronage, corporate subsidies, taxes and inflation.

Cleveland was famous for busting the union train saboteurs during the Pullman strike of 1892 which angered unions very much. He was also a big supporter of gold and a sworn enemy of silver. Unions and silver people kicked him out of the party, eventually, signifying a drastic shift of the Democrats to the left and leading to the nomination of William Jennings Bryan.
