No, FDR stopped the great depression and also played a kew role in winning WWII. He was totally aweseome.

Well, you have confirmed that you have an elementary understanding of American history, but I had already picked that up from your previous posts.

If it wasn't for Lincoln, the entire country...well, it wouldn't be a country anymore.

More proof of your all or nothing view of historical topics. Lincoln was not indispensible.

For the record, both FDR and Lincoln were good presidents, but time and war cured the depression, and the northerners who elected Lincoln made the decision to put a stop to the growth of slavery and keep the country united.


by the way, has anyone discussed the parellels between Lincolon (habeus corpus) and Bush (wire tapping)?
