FDR was a distant third to the Rough Rider. Teddy also the last third party candidate to make a serious run at the White House. So many reasons to like him, and so much less blowback than FDR.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02504734487692109101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9206524.post-43296355834942659452010-08-30T19:31:32.402-04:002010-08-30T19:31:32.402-04:00No argument here on that front.

I would argue Democrats are just as responsible as Republicans for the anarcho-capitalism and corporate cronyism that we have. These rich individuals have no vested interest in really being liberal, and truely liberal movements are always championed by social outcasts, not the establishment.<br Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02504734487692109101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9206524.post-70571256303280952762010-08-30T17:34:24.929-04:002010-08-30T17:34:24.929-04:00So they're just ineffective at getting their m...So they're just ineffective at getting their message across. You didn't dispell that both get funded. <br /><br />And if you were around long enough, you'd know that I don't think that way. They're pretty much the same with some very subtle differences.
