His statue was taken down because he rebelled against his countrySlavery existed long before Robert E. Lee, yet his statue was destroyed because of it. In fact, slavery existed since antiquity.
That's not an excuse.
As far as the interment of Japanese, the US government subsequently admitted they were wrong and FDR's policy was racist.
lol He was still a racist. You must be one of those "classical Liberals" I hear about.Go fuck yourself, FDR is a hero of mine and was a great President.
So slavery was okay in the 1800s, but not today. Right?In 2022?
Yes
In Post Pearl Harbor hysteria?
No
Now nobody knows the story of Aunt Jemima success story in black history because the wokie's eradicated her into oblivion.Slavery existed long before Robert E. Lee, yet his statue was destroyed because of it. In fact, slavery existed since antiquity.

You mean throwing US CITIZENS into CONCENTRATION CAMPS.So you agree with having a Jim Crow Army and interring Japanese?
ONLY WWII got us out. The prosperity of the 1950s-1970s was as a result of the inertia that resulted in the aftermath, and the fact that the US was the ONLY industrial superpower until Japan and Germany were rebuilt.It does not matter, it's long been known that FDR's policies prolonged the Great Depression.....It was "Great" because his policies made it so.
Wrong! Italians and Germans were not interred unless they met requirements which made them suspect. The number interred were much smaller than the Japanese.The Italians and Germans were also interned it is what countries did when at war with nations, which happened during WWI also.
Superior Minds Know That the Exception Proves the RuleRoosevelt went to Harvard and Groton before that, he was one of "them".....It's what the Ivy League does, it gets their leftist people into positions of power/influence
The Massuhs' New Overseers, Preppies' Pet Pit Bullslol He was still a racist. You must be one of those "classical Liberals" I hear about.
LOL....On this particular issue we might not be on the same page but at least in the library looking for the same book.Superior Minds Know That the Exception Proves the Rule
Your Rightist heiristocrats called FDR "a traitor to his class." So did the Never-Trumpers call Trump that among themselves. So you're practicing guilt-by-association. Even though that is usually true, under this system our only chance is to hope someone overcomes his Birth-Class Supremacy snobbery. Trump, for example, got thrown out of prep school for beating up those spoiled brats.
"Racism" is an upper-class snob term. ...
Poison Ivy Wrapped Around Poison WoakLOL....On this particular issue we might not be on the same page but at least in the library looking for the same book.
Ivy League political influences, be they in our past, in the present, or in our future is a existential threat to our Republic.....Always have been, always will be but most folks are not savvy enough to notice a enemy when they see one......All they see is that sheepskin.
In fact I'll go so far as to say that the danger has been compounded several fold by letting those, by virtue of mostly their radical political nature into those schools....Mostly lower academically performing blacks and women.
Whole radical political curriculums have been provided for them based on skin color and gender......Just call it advanced basket-weaving for leftist political activists.....Degrees that would not amount to shit except that it came from a Ivy League school and that gives them access that once gained means they are even harder to tear-out root and stem than the birth-class bunch.
I have a better idea; You leave and the monument staysPresident Roosevelt's racism- including the interment of Japanese and fielding a segregated Jim Crow Army in the 2nd world war should disqualify him from being honored with this statue in the nation's own capital.
Perhaps when this monument was erected, segregation and racism were considered "ok", but now they are not.
The plot of land where the memorial is at can be used for a monument to a worthy American like Freddie Gay or Notorious Big.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial (U.S. National Park Service)
These words by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt ushered the United States into World War II and defined what it is to be an American. Stop by this secluded memorial and begin to understand the Roosevelt legacy.www.nps.gov
I am just waiting for him to figure out how to burn concrete!I have a better idea; You leave and the monument stays
Go fuck yourself, FDR is a hero of mine and was a great President.
Of course he's your hero. He put Japanese-Americans in concentration camps, hated blacks, and sent Jewish refugees to be gassed in Germany. A credit to your neo-Nazi screen name.
He won World War 2, implemented sweeping reforms like social security and FDIC, and won a record 4 elections. He was a great man.
Another Laissez-Faire Myth ExplodedHe won World War 2, implemented sweeping reforms like social security and FDIC, and won a record 4 elections. He was a great man.
Not Conscripting Is Why Carthage Lost to Rome. The Chickenhawks Have Come Home to Roost.He fielded a Jim Crow Army during WW2, do you really agree with that kind of policy?
Wasn't it his responsibility to put an integrated military with white, blacks, gays, she-males and transvestites all on the battlefield together?
