59. Nope, not true

Sun Dec 4, 2016, 04:35 PM

Dec 2016

I think even most of the millenials who post here recognize what a transformational figure FDR was, especially when compared to do-nothing's like most of that era's GOP and do-next-to-nothing's like Herbert Hoover.

I don't like Old Joe either. It's not simply ideology, but party loyalty. Old Joe has been anything BUT a Democratic Party loyalist for years.

Before I post this, though, I've got a question. We all know how many times Old Joe spoke before a Republican national convention decrying the Democratic Party. My question to you is how many times did FDR do the same?
