Fair enough. Do you think though, that we have ever had a radical of the sort that Obama is, convinced as he is, that the country has been on a wrong path from the getgo, and dedicated to converting us to some kind of a neo-marxist utopia?
As flawed as our system is (see the unalterable changes that FDR blessed us with), can we ever recover from Obama?
No, we have never had a radical Leftist like Urkel. FDR was a card-carrying capitalist in comparison to this guy. FDR did not go into office with a preconceived plan to destroy the US (for fairness) but created programs designed to alleviate a gigantic problem. He was also facing pressure from the Left in that the Communist and Socialist parties were growing and his fellow Democrat, Huey “Kingfish” Long, was promoting his own Share the Wealth program, “Every Man a King”. Look into the characters who propose such programs and almost every one is corrupt and a crook. I don’t believe that can be said about FDR but his programs he believed would save capitalism.
I truly do not know if we can recover from allowing women to vote. That meant the majority of the electorate tended toward big government and socialism/welfarism. But I won’t be around to watch the final collapse unfortunately my sons will be.
