And yes, both FDR and JFK were actually quite complicated. Both presided over some
points of poor judgement as well (let's not forget internment camps), because of course,
they were not actually symbols, they were people. Bernie's camp would like they to
just be symbols though. They'd like a lot of things in the world to be simple symbols,
but the world is a lot more complicated than that...which is exactly why Clinton
deserves, and will get, the nomination...because what we really need is someone
who can manage that complicated world.
