Baby Boomers should be blamed for the bad policies of the 70s and 90s but the “Greatest Generation” started the world rolling to the Left.

The WW II generation did not elect FDR for his first 2 terms.

Who elected Wilson the first socialist president?

The US was on the socialist road well before the WW II generation could vote.

Agreed. Wilson got elected because Teddy Roosevelt ran against the Republican candidate Taft. They split the Republican vote and Wilson got in. It would have been better had Taft been re-elected.

People don’t know that the protestant vote went against FDR in his last two elections.
