Certainly if Bernie is elected, he is the closest to FDR's image than anyone running. I am old enough to remember FDR and Truman, too. Both were men who couldn't give a hang as to what people thought. The true jewel in FDR's administration was Eleanor Perkins. She doesn't get enough praise for her contributions to the New Deal and a chicken in every pot all of which were due to her brainstorms and managerial skills at implementing. We need to get rid of Andrew Jackson on our money and select Eleanor Perkins for that spot. Jackson was responsible for the attempted extermination of our native Americans....get rid of him.

FDR saved us in 1932. For almost fifty years we prospered. Then along come Ray-gun to turn the clock back. Since then we have been sliding into the garbage disposal. The only good Repug is a dead Repug.

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Never one to shy away from the truth, Thom Hartmann’s collected works are inspiring, wise, and compelling. His work lights the way to a better America."
Van Jones, cofounder of RebuildTheDream.com and author of The Green Collar Economy
From Cracking the Code:
"In Cracking the Code, Thom Hartmann, America’s most popular, informed, and articulate progressive talk show host and political analyst, tells us what makes humans vulnerable to unscrupulous propagandists and what we can do about it. It is essential reading for all Americans who are fed up with right-wing extremists manipulating our minds and politics to promote agendas contrary to our core values and interests."
David C. Korten, author of The Great Turning: From Empire to Earth Community and When Corporations Rule the World and board chair of YES! magazine
From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."
Paul Loeb, author of Soul of a Citizen
