Disputed claim
"'The Franco regime would not have tolerated either a non-Catholic or a liberal [diplomat]'"
 * NOTE: This may be part of Shulman's quote but it is inaccurate. Non-Catholic and non-Christian countries would have sent their own envoys, who would for the most part, if not entirely, have been non-Catholic or non-Christian.
 * I still would also like to know the names of at least some of the "leftists" (individuals or groups) who opposed the US having any dealings with Franco's Spain. So far no names have been forthcoming. Quis separabit?  18:24, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Schulman was referring to an ambassador from the USA. Footnote 8 provides 6 names (4 of them government officials). The CIO "opposed Roosevelt's recognition of the Franco regime" p 219 in 1949 Secty of State Dean Acheson was strongly opposed. The cited article by Kennedy says Harold Ickes, Henry Morgenthau, Jr., and Harry Hopkins were opposed. Rjensen (talk) 18:53, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
 * OK. Thanks. Quis separabit?  19:06, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

WW2
If Franco was going to join the war it would have been in 1940 after the Fall of France, not in 1942 when Germany was at war with the Soviet Union and the United States. (86.133.85.51 (talk) 14:09, 25 January 2018 (UTC))
