Party affiliation[edit]

The "interesting" aspect of this individual rests on his political affiliation vis-a-vis that of the president of the US; but nowhere does the article explicitly state his affiliation, which, IMO, is a problem. It is implied several times, but not directly stated, which is especially an issue for folks unfamiliar with US politics. Vanamonde (talk) 11:42, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Can you clarify please? I'm not quite sure what you mean. Thank you. Phelps (BYU) (talk) 22:17, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Phelps (BYU) The article implies that Rosel H. Hyde is Republican, but doesn't actually state it. Was he Republican? Rachel Helps (BYU) (talk) 18:34, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
