Ummm.....yea

Social Security is good
We have FDR to thank

As you know, we'd have been fine if the retirement age had been tied to our longevity expectation.

Agree, it isn’t a simple change to raise Social Security to 70 for new people in the system.
No reason to panic

The father of Japanese internment was Republican Earl Warren who shortly after the attacks was advocating about the threat of Japanese in California

The same Earl Warren who later became Governor of California and Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and chaired the Warren Commission after JFKs assassination

Lieutenant General John L DeWirr was the Commander of Western Defense Command. He was the military authority in charge of protecting the western region of continental America from Japanese attacks. Made no difference who the President was. He wanted Japanese vacated from the west coast. FDR simply followed the advice of his Commander on the ground.

It won't be long until we discover the American people were forced to vote for FDR four times. The people must have hated FDR's guts for forcing them to do that. But then we discover the Historians were forced to vote FDR as America's greatest president, even after FDR bombed Pearl Harbor. Where, oh where, does it end? Of course if the Americans hadn't voted for FDR four times we now know they too would be put in the concentration camps along with the Japanese.

No matter who was president.......the Japanese were going to the camps

Racist democrat speculation.

Racists always assume everyone else is racist too.

You are becoming a broken record

Japanese went to internment camps, it shouldn’t have happened but that was the way things were

No matter who was president, Democrat or Republican........the Japanese were going to the camps

"Dear Earl": the Fair Play Committee, Earl Warren, and Japanese internment. - Free Online Library



"Dear Earl:

I presume upon my friendship with you to write you regarding a matter over which I am much concerned. I am convinced that we must deal fairly with the loyal Americans of Japanese ancestry who have been evacuated from our state. (1)

This is how Alfred J. Lundberg began his letter to his friend Earl Warren on July 13, 1943. Warren was the new governor of California, having taken office earlier that year after a term as state attorney general. Lundberg was the chief executive of the Key System, the East Bay's major private rail, bus, and ferry mass transit company. He had twice served as president of the State Chamber of Commerce and four times as leader of the chamber's Oakland branch. He was a trustee of Berkeley's Pacific School of Religion and board member of the East Bay chapter of the Conference of Christians and Jews. In 1943, it would have been hard to find a more representative member of Oakland's establishment than Al Lundberg. (2) "

"AN INDEPENDENT COMMITTEE OF INFLUENTIAL INDIVIDUALS"

"The Fair Play Committee was established in the fall of 1941, three months before the attack on Pearl Harbor. In May of that year, David Prescott Barrows, chairman of the University of California's Political Science Department and former university president, became concerned about rising anti-Japanese sentiment in California. He discussed the matter with Galen Fisher, a faculty member at the Pacific School of Religion and a political science research associate at the university. A liberal Protestant, Fisher had served twenty-one years in Japan as secretary of the International Committee of the YMCA.

Subsequently, he had carried out a survey of race relations on the Pacific Coast for the Rockefeller Institute of Social and Religious Research. Although Fisher was in his late sixties in 1941, he agreed to take on the task of organizing what he and Barrows envisioned as "an independent committee of influential individuals" to advocate for the protection of the civil rights and liberties of Californians of Japanese descent. In September 1941, he announced the establishment of the Northern California Committee on Fair Play for Citizens and Aliens of Japanese Ancestry. (5) "

Ya, well the governor of Colorado had no responsibility for keeping everyone on the Pacific Coast safe. Colorado ports and the ships in Colorada were not possible targets of a Japanese attack. Colorado was protected by two big mountain ranges.

It is fascinating what fear will do even the NRA uses fear to promote a gun in every household. The fear was real after Pearl Harbor why else would we have patrolled our shorelines looking for Japanese?
But why was California and the West Coast believed to be in particular peril?

But not enough ‘fear’ to remove all those of Japanese heritage from Hawaii where we had sensitive military assets, eh?

So, you don't understand the difference between Hawaii and the West Coast during WWII?
