It is offensive to many to compare Obama to either Roosevelt. Obama is a master politician, and done some good things as president. He is no populist, and has consistently shown much more deference to corporations and bankers than either Roosevelt. Obama has probably been the better candidate for working Americans in both presidential elections, but that is at best weak praise. There will be no calls in the future to place Obama on Mt. Rushmore, or to put a memorial to him on the mall in Washington.

@TomR1934: Obama:
Tax all high incomes, as IKE, to curb shift of wealth to an oligarchy in our USA!
Pay pitance on debts, to bal budget!
