Some of the wingnuts on this thread are not fans of FDR (one of the greatest IMO), probably are secretly wishing the coup would've succeeded. Here's some select FDR quotes: Quotes: "A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned how to walk forward." "A nation that destroys it's soils destroys itself. Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air and giving fresh strength to our people." "Here is my principle: Taxes shall be levied according to ability to pay. That is the only American principle." "I ask you to judge me by the enemies I have made." "If civilization is to survive, we must cultivate the science of human relationships - the ability of all peoples, of all kinds, to live together, in the same world at peace." "It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something." "Let us never forget that government is ourselves and not an alien power over us. The ultimate rulers of our democracy are not a President and senators and congressmen and government officials, but the voters of this country." "The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much it is whether we provide enough for those who have little." "True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made."
