What’s So New About Cuba’s Medical Internationalism?

11. Wingers have hated Democrats for ages. They despised Franklin D. Roosevelt, as he did so much good

for the suffering poor after the depression, creating jobs to get the people back to work who had lost EVERYTHING. They knew that he could be re-elected until he was a very old man, and he probably would have, had he not succumbed during his fourth term, to his illness which had been destroying him.

(As you probably know already, high-ranking Republicans also conspired to spring a coup upon F.D.R., at one time, trying to engage a former Marine officer Smedley Butler to lead it for them, which he flat-out refused.)

That's when they legislated TERM LIMITS suddenly for the U.S. President, as soon as FDR died in office, although the Founding Fathers had never placed limits on the number of terms a President might serve, considering the person the people voted for would always be the country's legitimate decision each election.

Good case of the filthy right-wing trying to force its dirty, selfish wishes upon the population. One of far too many.

They are hateful people.

By the way, Eisenhower was the one who had set in motion the Bay of Pigs invasion, having sent Cuban "exiles" and others to train for it in El Salvador or Guatemala (can't remember, but it's available to locate in a search) well before John F. Kennedy was elected.
