Well dangit, he’s still one of the better Presidents we’ve ever had. That said, here are the three biggest things I just can’t get past that still prevent him from making my top 10. FDR forced more than 125,000 Japanese Americans to live in concentration camps, completely stripping them of their freedoms, despite no evidence that any of them were conspiring to help Japan in World War Two. FDR and his administration repeatedly failed to admit Jewish refugees during the Holocaust. FDR’s New Deal DID NOT end the Great Depression, ok? While he does deserve credit for the social programs he helped create, many historians argue some of his New Deal programs were unconstitutional and actually PROLONGED the Depression. While most historians say FDR is a top three President, those three things make me disagree.
