FDR was easily the best president - of the last century.
I've had this argument especially with so many Americans..that FDR was brilliant as his policies set the USA up for decades of prosperity and boosted the Middle Class by millions.
But he did it with large does of Socialism..and indeed socialism has been bailing out the USA for 100 years with (generous) Welfare..both State & Federal, huge welfare subsidies to private corporations, farmers and so on and saving the US banking system after the 2007/2009 financial meltdown etc etc.
They won;t have it of course (all my pals are Conservatives) and still claim
Barack Obama is a
Communist along with
Joe Biden who they reckon is a Chinese spy.
## I think it was FDR's 4 terms that set up the change to a president only being allowed two.
