You’re sorry a certain expression of American ideals is, or often appears to be, completely over.

The legacy of the Roosevelts--big government, imperial presidencies, New Dealism and welfare-state socialism--is far, far from over.

This country will never recover from them.

I met James (Jimmy) Roosevelt, FDR’s son, many years ago. He offered his condolences when he learned I was a Republican.

The thing was that in the early days American idealism could stay ideal....before reality set in
