Actually I have read if we would have stuck with Hoover's plan we would have gotten out of that depression quicker.
With that said people at the time were desperate and in serious need and FDR provided quick relief to these suffering people....

There is no doubt that FDR was VERY popular...that is apparent by how many the times the guy was elected. Indeed the guy "meant" to do well but "good intentions" is no measure of weather or not his policies were sucessful or not. FDR is over-rated and his reputation is pumped up in our public schools as are all the democratic presidents "acheivements". There is no doubt our schools are biased way towards the left so the young and impressionable reader leaves school trying to wonder why anyone would be so "cold hearted" to vote republican"
Theres an old saying...If you are under 30 and you are a republican, then you don't have a heart....If you are over 30 and you are a democrat, then you don't have a brain...not my words(but I do like the saying admittedly) so don't attack me please....

F.D.R. quick fix may have hurt things more in the long run. WWII got us out of the depression...not FDR and the dems.

We have a great cure-all here in the UK:it is called The National Health Service. It is the new name for Euthanasia.

It's sad that nobody who is really qualified to run the country would ever think of running...or make it through the twisted, entrenched obstacle course long enough to enter government.
I know it's heresy, but maybe putting government in the hands of the people is really expecting too much from them. I know I've made many choices in my life that were foolish and potentially dangerous- why should the country have to suffer because a majority of the population collectively got wasted and took the wrong girl home? Metaphorically speaking, of course...

No kidding
But in the other hand, there's nothing much you can do about Bush these days, he's definitely a basket case (the easy target)... I think Kerry's got this one already in his pocket (but there will always be time and facts to prove me wrong )

That's OK- I'm not a dem myself, so no offense taken. A lively discussion beats an apathetic consensus any day!
