253. such nonsense
Let's try again.

The position of organized Labor and the traditional position of the party has been to acknowledge the inequality between workers and bosses, and to level the playing field wherever possible.

If FDR endorsed the idea that bosses had rights that workers did not, then to the degree he did he would not have been much of a Democrat. But he did not endorse any such idea.

You sure you want to use FDR a an example on this? He was probably the strongest national Democrat on this issue.

Letting people go from high level government positions is hardly analogous to bosses arbitrarily firing employees.
