There were no far right reactionaries. Everyone was a FDR cheerleader even if the great orator was a sick man.

If everyone was a FDR cheerleader why did the peacetime draft extension pass the House by only one vote. One can guess which political party those who voted against that draft extension belonged to, and this was just a few months before Pearl Harbor.

Congressional representatives might have been trying to do their jobs by representing the will of the people but the "everyone" I cite is the propaganda network including the entire radio and print media and Hollywood. You could also say that almost every "historian" became an FDR cheerleader. In the 60's the media thought that a 2nd rate burglary was horrific enough to bring down the Nixon administration but back in the 40's the incarceration of American citizens was endorsed by the media. The attempted stacking of the Supreme Court was a minor glitch that the media didn't like but they soon forgave the democrat party for running a virtual zombie for a 4th term when they knew he was a dying man.

Sick or crippled he was number one with the people of his period and number one with the historians that rated him later. Has anyone done better? Might do the historians are commies thing.

His policies should have had him impeached if the media was doing it's job. FDR presided over a dying Nation for two administrations where Americans were reduced to soup lines. Everyone, thank God, has done better than FDR and the "historians" are only mildly supportive of the tactics of tyrants like FDR today.

Historians moved FDR from third best president in their 1948 poll to America's greatest president in their last (2010) poll. That survey was taken of 238 of America's most noted historians and presidential experts.
