Excuse me, I was thinking of John Nance Garner, the Texan. What did you have to say about Wallace?

FDR opposed the corrupt Democratic machine of Tammany Hall AND the Republicans who sought to undermine his progressive vision. Throwing the baby out with the bathwater is for lightweights and amateurs. Genuine reformers work within the system, opposing ALL corruption.

That's not true. A few months after Wallace wrote that in the New York Times, the Democratic Party replaced him as FDR's running mate at the Dem National Conv because he was too friendly to labor and to hostile to business. So when FDR died in early 1945, we got Truman instead.

If you look at the history of labor laws and support for the working class, that has always been driven by Democrats. Blaming the entire Democratic party only augments the Limbaugh talking points and alienates potential allies. Let's talk policies & specifics, not bash parties

Again, I think you have your history wrong. Democrats were the right wing when the Whigs became too similar to the Democrats and were replaced by a new, progressive party called the Republican Party in the 1860s. 1/

Do you mean "Libertarian" or "libertarian"?
