    I was struck by the sadness in his eyes in all those old photographs, even when he was home and around all the people who adored him . . .

    Happy Birthday FDR! You were a wonderful President! Not perfect! Nobody is! But you were good! I wish you were President now! Since the 70s' we have had nothing but drege. No good leaders like you willing to take a chance and who care about the country and the people.

    Today marks the 75th Anniversary of his death! A very complex man he was and a great leader and President! We need leaders like him! He was not always right and was disliked by many, but he stood up and lead this country thought the depression and WW2. Thank you FDR!
