FDR implemented socialist and/or fascist economic policies, but he didn't start the trend towards socialist thought in the US but rather responded to it. His ideas where popular, and not just because he was personally popular.

In a way I think FDR was one of our worst presidents. His leadership in WWII probably keeps him from the bottom of the list, as might the fact that we had some really poor presidents over our history, but he is hard to beat if your looking for disastrous economic policy.
