Which group most directly supported this speech? "If they ask us here why it is we say more on the money question than we say
upon the tariff question, I reply that if protection has slain its thousands the gold
standard has slain its tens of thousands. If they ask us why we did not embody
all these things in our platform which we believe, we reply to them that when
we have restored the money of the Constitution, all other necessary reforms
will be possible, and that until that is done there is no reform that can be
accomplished."
-William Jennings Bryan, 1896
