卡尔文·柯立芝(Calvin Coolidge,1872年7月4日-1933年1月5日),美国第30任总统(1923年-1929年)。他以沉默寡言、财政保守著称,在任期间美国经济繁荣,被称为“沉默卡尔”。

柯立芝出生于佛蒙特州普利茅斯的一个农场主家庭,早期从事法律职业,后进入政界。他曾担任马萨诸塞州州长,并于1921年成为副总统。在总统沃伦·哈定突然去世后,他继任总统。

柯立芝的总统任期正值美国经济繁荣的“咆哮的二十年代”,他秉持着有限政府的理念,主张减少政府干预,降低税率,平衡预算。他的财政政策被认为对经济的持续增长做出了贡献。然而,他也因其沉默寡言的风格而备受争议,一些人认为他缺乏领导力和沟通能力。

尽管如此,柯立芝的政府还是取得了一些成就,例如成功平衡了联邦预算,并对国家债务进行了显著的减少。他任内还见证了妇女获得投票权。

柯立芝在1928年决定不寻求连任,结束了他作为总统的政治生涯。他退役后依然保持着低调的生活,于1933年去世,被人们铭记为一位在经济繁荣时期执政的保守派总统。

English

Calvin Coolidge (July 4, 1872 – January 5, 1933) served as the 30th president of the United States from 1923 to 1929. Known for his quiet demeanor and fiscally conservative policies, Coolidge presided over a period of significant economic prosperity, earning him the nickname "Silent Cal."

Born on a farm in Plymouth, Vermont, Coolidge pursued a career in law before entering politics. He served as the governor of Massachusetts and became vice president in 1921. Upon the sudden death of President Warren G. Harding, he assumed the presidency.

Coolidge's presidency coincided with the booming economy of the "Roaring Twenties." Adhering to a philosophy of limited government, he advocated for reduced government intervention, lower taxes, and balanced budgets. His fiscal policies are credited with contributing to sustained economic growth. However, his taciturn nature also generated considerable controversy, with some critics suggesting he lacked leadership and communication skills.

Despite this, the Coolidge administration achieved several accomplishments, including successfully balancing the federal budget and significantly reducing the national debt. His tenure also witnessed the ratification of the 19th Amendment, granting women the right to vote.

Coolidge chose not to seek re-election in 1928, concluding his political career as president. He maintained a low profile in retirement until his death in 1933, remaining a memorable figure as a conservative president who led during a period of economic prosperity.
