What a silly thread.

Yeah, especially in light of the fact that it was FDR and a Democratic Congress which gave us the Rural Electrification Act in 1935, over the predictable objections of the GOP about "creeping socialism."

One of the reasons the 20's were roaring was because private enterprise was building electric grid. Rural Electrification came to be when Komrade FDR wanted to show Stalin that the USA could centrally plan everything too

Brinkmanship? It was an 8th grade level of "Can You Top This" I was making fun of. Something Republicans and Democrats fully understand.

Franklin D. Roosevelt Biography - FDR - 32nd President of the United States

In 1936, Roosevelt easily won the nomination with Garner as his Vice President. He was opposed by progressive Republican Alf Landon whose platform argued that the New Deal was not good for America and relief efforts should be run by the states. Landon argued while campaigning that the New Deal programs were unconstitutional. Roosevelt campaigned on the programs' effectiveness. The NAACP supported Roosevelt who won an overwhelming victory with 523 electoral votes versus Landon's 8.

Bet they couldn't figure out why they lost then, either.

No, it was an egomaniacal wanna-be dictator that caused the war.

They have an excellent health care system.Better then ours I hear.
According to Sean Penn anyway.

Yep, Chavez bet his life on it.

Yes, but in they put Japanese Americans in concentration camps, which FDR learned from his idol and political icon master, Uncle Joe Stalin.

You mean that Lincoln right after the ELECTION caused the Southern Democrat states to leave the Union then ordered them to fire on Fort Sumpter? Is that what you would have us believe? Sorry the war turned out badly for the democrats but I think it worked out best for the slaves.

Think about it for a second.

And if you travel to Cuba, for example, traveling by horse (carriage) is still quite the norm.

Perhaps the left has the nostalgia to go back in time?

When was the last time you were in Cuba?

Or out of the country for that matter? And I mean..not on a cruise or in a vacation compound.

Last April.

Didn't take long for the pathetic use of the Muslim inducted disaster of 9/11 to be used by the left wing. Truly the only shame they could possible know is that of their parents.
