talk about FDR, so imo, that is what we should do as much and as often as possible.

I was reading some of his fireside chats recently and was so impressed at how his mind was always so focused on the PEOPLE. And how fast he moved to implement ideas he communicated to the people. He was not looking for approval from the Bankers, he mocked them.

The people voted for him four times! And we are still benefiting from the work he did for the people.

But the Third Way now ensconced in the Party of FDR are bound and determined to take away everything FDR worked for.

There really needs to be an organization of Populists as strong and as determined as the Third Way within this party.

I think people are ready for another FDR. Most are sick to death of the Corporate policies and their phony 'concerns' for the people. They care nothing for people, they are so out of touch in their bubbles, they couldn't relate to the Working Class if their lives depended on it.
