After Republican Herbert Hoover’s disastrous term in the White House and the Great Depression, America looked to the party that ended World War I and brought prosperity to the nation to save the country from extinction. America elected a Democrat, whose party was held in contempt by the isolationist Republican Party, to lead us out of the Depression.
FDR’s brilliant economic policy saved this country. He wisely chose government programs such as the Works Progress Administration and the Civilian Conservation Corps to bring us out of the mess created by the Republican isolationists.
If one were honest, one would realize that stands in stark contrast to the failed policies of the so-called commander in chief, President Bush, who can’t win the war he started against a tiny nation, Iraq. Let us not forget that when FDR died he was succeeded by Harry Truman, who ended World War II.
I hope that Americans are smart and are looking to a Democrat who will end the failed war in Iraq and bring us real economic prosperity like so many of his predecessors.
