FDR was amazing, but would lose because the majority of us Americans are morons that believe Reagan was actually a good president.

This site stresses me out, so I rarely come on here anymore. I'll try to be civil and respectful towards those I'm debating on here. If you don't extend the same courtesy then I'll probably just ignore you.

Ronald Regan, or Franklin Deleano Roosevelt? One is a Democrat, and another a Republican, so who would win?

I'm not sure which bugs me more, the "content" of the thread or the fact that you couldn't spell either of the men's names correctly.

Nothing good about a Socialist Dictator like FDR. Let's go Reagan.

There was something good about both of them. Both of them were tremendous shit-heels as well, though.

Both had lots of charisma but FDR imho. He got elected by the public three times and he started a lot of long-term programs.

In that, today's society does not have the same negative view on the helplessness of the handicaped therefore him being in a wheelchair would be a complete non-issue to society at the whole. And if any opponent tried to make a big deal out of it would be complete politcal suicide as it would only seem like an attack on the handicaped and disabled.


Thing is, I wouldn't put it past Fox News to be dicks about all of this and take shots at him for being in a wheelchair.
