And, he was elected for 3 terms. Go figure the stupidity of the American people. Has anything really changed?

Apparently not. He was elected to four terms.

Oh and btw the gov paid the market value for gold bullion coins. So it wasn't "stolen" or "confiscated" but no it was not allowed to remain in private hands. Collectors' coins were excepted, which is why we can buy gold pieces from the 1800's and early 1900's today.

Yes, I’m well aware that he was elected to 4 terms, but I guess I didn’t count the fourth, since he died in office.
