Since he was the small government conservative that Reagan often idolized (even though it was his laissez-faire views on the economy that really led to the Great Depression at the end of the 20s).

Well will FDR be to Obama as Coolidge was to Reagan? I don't ever recall Roosevelt being discussed by so many people in my lifetime.

With the Republicans (Bachmann) trying to tarnish his reputation, I wonder what type of imagine will come out of this, specifically if Obama employs Roosevelt's similar approaches when it came to talking with the American people.

We'll see, I guess, but it will be interesting to see if Roosevelt will remain relevant after all those years.
