He was a corrupt asshole, but so was everybody else around him at the time so I can't really hold that against him.  He did a LOT for the poor, that's good.  He didn't like the Fed Reserve, that's good.  The "share the wealth" thing wasn't.  He was certainly an ass.  Baptists getting in bed with Catholics is always weird.  He was against free speech and a free press, bad obviously.  Horny for power, not good (but is true of nearly all poiticos I suppose).  Taken together, he probably meant well and likely didn't have an option to not be a corrupt bully and get what he thought needed done, but I can't vote FF for someone with so many unFF like actions.
