I wish President Obama were more like FDR . . .

President Franklin D. Roosevelt speaking to the nation from the heart . . .
without the use of a teleprompter. . . 

As a registered Democrat I wish President Obama were more like FDR in one important way: his eloquent defense of the working class of America during the Great Depression. His voice gave hope to the hopeless. And his government offered the destitute a Helping Hand.

Was it not preferable to violent revolution? And yet, the OLD MONEY never stopped loathing THAT MAN long after prosperity returned and CAPITALISM was saved. Clearly, Obama is a neo-Democrat with no real quarrel with the ONE PERCENT. For that reason in 2008 I supported Ralph Nader.

And the Nation listened . . .

On the war against terrorism I can only commend President Obama's caution. It was Wilsonian blather that got us involved in the war in Iraq– the greatest foreign policy blunder in American history. We will definitely not make ourselves safer in America by some jackass air war over Syria and Iraq.

You can kill terrorists by the thousands but can you kill a deranged theology? Tens of thousands of American troops in the Middle East will surely bring back some horrific plague to the United Sates–a real  weapon of mass destruction. PEACE!
