I'm reading a biography of FDR at the same time that I'm watching the Gilded Age on Netflix. Fascinating how FDR - and America - transitioned from the first Gilded Age into a progressive era. And we can do it again. History is just repeating itself.

Citizens United vs FEC was designed & implemented to hoodwink single-issue voters. Need to counter the dark-money fueled propaganda before frightened voters will ever see the Light.

One of the Worst presidents. Leftists like Marianne want a lib fascist dictator like Trudeau to take over our free market system. Sick!

You’re skipping a historical period. The progressive era that curbed some of the worst abuses of the gilded age was pre-FDR/New Deal and led by moderate Republicans (Bob LaFollette, CE Hughes, Hiram Johnson, Theodore Roosevelt, etc)

I think you should run for President again. I know this time I would support you.
