[quote=Anonymous]Just ignore this post as it's irrelevant in relation to the overall topic of this thread, but he was a pretty amazing individual. Child of privilege groomed to be president from a young age. Ran for Vice President as an able bodied young man and lost. Shortly after he was paralyzed by polio shortly thereafter. Just at the moment when eugenics was reaching its zenith both here and abroad he was elected governor of New York. He served as president through the Great Depression and 99% of WWII. It's almost as if his handicap made him a stronger more compassionate man. Perhaps he would have been a compassionate man even without any hardships. Nevertheless it amazes me the way he was able to calm and unify the nation during such difficult times. [/quote]
