Hillary is not a Democrat, she's a Moderate Republican like Obama and Bill

129. I doubt FDR, JFK or LBJ would pass your "progressive" litmus test if they were alive today.

FDR--saved capitalism from itself, supported the incarceration of Japanese Americans into concentration camps; refused to desegregate the armed forces; refused to apply the 14th amendment to federal programs in the South; courted the support of southern racists (Dixiecrats); favored mostly incremental changes as opposed to "revolution"--

JFK--authorized the invasion of Cuba at the Bay of Pigs; supported the overthrow of the democratically elected (but socialist) government of Guyana; approved efforts to assassinate foreign leaders (esp. Castro); beefed up the US presence in Vietnam; accelerated the arms race through the spread of the bogus "missile gap" propaganda-

LBJ--Vietnam. Need I say more?

Anyway, I find it ironic that the supporters of a candidate who up until recently didn't even identify as a Democrat now give us lectures on who is and who isn't a Democrat.

I'm a Bernie supporter, and I think OPs like this are ridiculous, divisive, and wildly counterproductive.

Let's hope Bernie's campaign in the real world isn't as ham-handed and arrogant as some of what we've seen on-line.
