41. I am very grateful for FDR. I would not be here without him.
Internment was real. It was wrong. Nonetheless FDR was a giant and he can not be discounted by one error in judgment.
The proof was at the voting polls. The American people loved FDR and returned him to the presidency for an historic four times. By 1936 Roosevelt took the black vote from the republican party of Lincoln for the first time on record Democrats captured 75% of the black vote due to FDR's New Deal programs.
