FDR???? He was one of the worst presidents we had. His socialistic policies were a disaster. He is the leader of the nanny state movement. At Yalta conference Russias miltary was totally destroyed we could've marched to Moscow and took control, instead FDR gave them half of Europe culminating in 50 years of cold war. FDR was a great American idiot!!!!!
I agree, FDR was the original American Socialist. He should have no part of a Reagan memorial.
Agree. Reagan's achievements were in large part to fix the problems that FDR created. He deepened and extended the depression, allowed Commies into high ranking positions in his government, and gave the Soviets half of Europe. He destroyed federalism and ran roughshod over the constitution, preparing the way for the rulings of the 50s, 60s and 70s which fundamentally changed our society.
FDR dominated the first half of the century, no question about it, and Reagan is the dominant figure of the second half. The difference is that FDR screwed things up, and Reagan fixed things.
Save that crap for the Brits. America is not an Empire. America don't play dat.
Amen, brother Ben.
