Can anyone imagine someone like Obama, Hillary, or now, any of the Demo presidential candidates running for office successfully handling, and ultimately succeeding in such grand fashion, an operation like this? I sure can't!

That was like one of my broke-down old buddies serving me a big fat one over the net at 25 mph.

A member of the Democratic Party, he won a record four presidential elections and became a central figure in world events during the first half of the 20th century

And neither would stand a chance of getting the Democratic nomination to run... in the New and Deprived Democratic Party... both would be viewed as to Conservatives and tossed aside.

Most Progressive Presidents:

1. FDR
2. Lincoln
3. LBJ
4. Teddy

But you're right I'm sure the New Deal guy and his protege the "Great Society" guy would have a hard time in this climate...
