So you're suggesting that our goal should be to live up to the standards of 60 year old republicans?

The purpose of calling someone an FDR democrat is because of the "New Deal". It's akin to the "Great Society" programs of LBJ. If you want to declare that Hillary is neither of those, fine. But don't be surprised that this is why many people oppose her.
