To the people who keep saying "get over it" about the far-left's sabotage of our nation:

291. Actually, the far left hated FDR.

For instance, many on the far left called him a "capitalist war monger" for wanting to reinstitute the draft in 1940, after the German defeat of France. This didn't change until Hitler invaded the Soviet Union in June 1941 at which point "the party line" did a 180 degree turn.

FDR was also condemned for going slow (agonizingly slow) on civil rights. Even Eleanor called him out on this. And then too, there was that item about imprisoning tens of thousands of American citizens (Japanese Americans) in concentration camps during WWII. I seem to recall reading that there was quite a lot of criticism (all from the left) for that particular policy, and rightfully so.

And JFK was condemned by the far left for being a Joe McCarthy supporting Cold Warrior who also dragged his feet on civil rights. In fact, the leaders of SNCC wanted to denounce JFK from the podium during the March on Washington in August 1963, and were convinced not to do it only at the very last minute.

Somehow I doubt that the policies of FDR or JFK would have won the approval of "Our Revolution" back then. Not from my reading of the history, anyway.
