(81,267 posts)FDR won four terms although he didn't live through the fourth one. But he started on fixing the Great Depression, and by the time he ran for his fourth term, many agencies and services were in place to form what we now know as the "social safety net."
Maybe we need FDR2.0 ?
How ever it happens, this is such a colossal recovery job that we'll have to keep as many republi-CONS securely OUT of office so we'll have enough time to complete work on some serious repairs. They'll just obstruct and interfere and whine "free market!" 'Supply side!" "Trickle-down!" "A rising tide raises all boats!" "Government isn't the solution, it's the problem," "starve the beast," and all that other crap that has NOT panned out the way they assured us it would.

I can just picture it!
You've got me stuck on the horns of the ol' dilemma now.
Now, I find myself envisioning a Biden/Cuomo ticket - even as I long to see a woman VP!

(5,128 posts)when those retags are in the right place and feeling themselves, they will admit that they never had any intention of being 'elected representatives' to anyone but themselves and those who pay them? Isn't it even more amazing that we are still in a country where these weasels admit this and they are STILL in power?
