9. Truman - he was my ideal Democrat - he was a small business man, served in the Army

in WWI and rose to become a Colonel in the reserves. Served well in the Senate and pursued war profiteers in WWII till becoming VP. He kept a revolver in his Presidential desk drawer. He integrated the US Military even though they hated it. He hated the bullshit of politics and never forgot that he was working for the people of the US, not the bankers or the industrialists.

No one since has even come close.

10. FDR, and lock up all the Muslim Americans like FDR locked up the

Japanese Americans in WWII. :sarcasm:

There is no perfect President, folks. Never has been. Never will be. President Obama is our current President. He needs our support now, more than ever, as do other Democrats. Consider a Republican Congress, if you disagree.
