Best to get rid of this one too... His anti-Semitic and racist tendencies are well documented.

...Long after Roosevelt's death, new lines of attack opened to attack his policies regarding helping the Jews of Europe, incarcerating Japanese Americans on the West Coast and opposing anti-lynching legislation

...After the 1936 Berlin Olympics, only the white athletes were invited to see and meet Roosevelt. No such invitation was made to the African American athletes such as Jesse Owens, who had won four gold medals.

...Roosevelt condemned lynching as murder, but he did not support Republican proposals to make it a federal crime, although his wife Eleanor did so.

Once a racist, always a racist.

Contrary to what everyone knows, Hitler greeted Owens and was nice to him, at least that is what Owens said in a short film I saw with my own eyes.

I have photos of my Father’s battalion marching in the Berlin Olympic stadium after the war ended. This was 1945.
