This is a speech by FDR during his reelection campaign in 1936. I think of this whenever I hear Republican presidential candidates talk about making health care more accessible and affordable for every American. In FDRs case, the Republicans were claiming they could create and manage the social programs FDR was fostering better than FDR himself. I think everyone knows the Republicans can not be trusted with social programs like universal health care, but theyve seen the writing on the wall and desperately want to take the issue away from the liberals and progressives. The GOP (Greedy Old Perverts) can not be trusted with any issue that benefits the poor and middle class. By the way, even though its not widely known, we are worse off today than we were in 1936 when FDR gave this speech.
