Greetings, loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader, being a student of history, always like to read other people’s takes on historical figures. He was reading over the Wunderkinder site and found this post on why one of the Wunderkinder doesn’t like FDR.

Your Maximum Leader has already stated on the record where he thinks FDR ranks in the Pantheon of American Presidential Greatness. (Which reminds him… We never did hear from the Minister of Agriculture on his list of the 10 greatest presidents.)

In reading David’s reasons not to like FDR, your Maximum Leader finds himself agreeing on a number of points and disagreeing on others. Your Maximum Leader does think that some of David’s reasons for disliking FDR can be better understood by examining a little of the context in which the decision were made.

But it is an interesting post none-the-less.

Carry on.
