Don't forget about Presidents who couldn't do the "three letters nickname" thing. Obvious exceptions: JFK, LBJ.

I always thought JAG never got his due in that regard.

He's saying you have a right to, among other ridiculous things, a job, clothes, recreation, etc.
Like I said in my post, I think you missed it, these aren't "bad things" but they are hardly things the government should provide for you.[/QUOTE]
But the government does provide for those things. The minimum wage laws are in place so that employers pay what's supposed to amount to a living wage (or close to it) so that one can afford clothes and food. There are also laws regulating the maximum number of hours an employer can make one work, providing that recreation time (if one chooses to have it instead of taking a second job).
The "right to a job" thing, I don't quite get but from the context of the speech - and what came after all the way up till now - it seems like he's just talking about government setting up policies that keep the American economy running.

The "right to a job" to me was more about allowing equal opportunity to get a job. Like I said, take it in context to the time period.
There is a clarification to the quote FDR said in the first link about the speech.
That says a lot about what FDR was looking for.
The devaluing of the dollar by nationalizing gold is a big beef I have FDR. I also don't care for his so-called temporary New Deal programs that are insanely bloated today. And, yes, I am a foaming at the mouth conservative, Chuck.
I'd offer you a tissue to wipe that away, but you'd probably expect me to compete for your business.

Well, he's been dead since '45. You can't really blame him for what happened to said programs since then.
