Early fundamentalism was not very involved, politically, but Bryan was. Bryan was a political progressive who fought for the rights and dignity of working people. He played an important role in the ratification of four constitutional amdendments which he saw as helping create a more democratic and more righteous society: the progressive federal income tax, Prohibition, women's sufferage, and the direct election of senators. Bryan received the Democratic nomination for President three times, never getting much support outside of rural and southern areas. In 1912 his support for Woodrow Wilson helped the latter get the presidency, and Bryan was made Secretary of State. His unwavering commitment to pacifism, however, brought him into conflict with the administration due to the developing war in Europe, and he eventually had to resign.

Britannica CD Index Articles Dictionary Help Bryan, William Jennings (b . March 19, 1860, Salem, Ill., U.S.d. July 26, 1925, Dayton, Tenn.), Democratic and Populist leader and a magnetic orator who ran unsuccessfully three times for the U.S. presidency (1896, 1900, 1908). His enemies regarded him as an ambitious demagogue, but his supporters viewed him as a champion of liberal causes. He was influential in the eventual adoption of such reforms as popular election of senators, income tax, creation of a Department of Labor, Prohibition, and woman suffrage.

Reared in Illinois, he practiced law at Jacksonville (1883-87) before moving to Lincoln, Neb., where he was elected to the U.S. Congress in 1890. Renowned as a gifted debater, he opposed high tariffs and came to be considered the national leader of the Free Silver Movement (bimetallism) as opposed to the "hard money" policy of the Eastern bankers and industrialists, who favoured the gold standard.
