Cross of Gold speech

 * ... that although William Jennings Bryan delivered the Cross of Gold speech at the 1896 Democratic National Convention, he was not even a delegate when the convention started?

 * Symbol confirmed.svg This comprehensive article has already achieved "Good article" status and it qualifies for DYK as well. 5x expansion, date and hook are fine. The hook reference just reads "Cherny, p. 56." and Cherny does not seem to be mentioned in the Bibliography. This seems inadequate to me but that is probably just my ignorance, after all, if the article is good enough for GA it is probably good enough for DYK!

 * Symbol question.svg No, that is a mistake on the part of the GA reviewer. This should be fixed. Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:38, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
