Another veteran editorial writer described the choice as similar to picking Franklin Delano Roosevelt, a calculating but masterful politician at maneuvering needed legislation through Congress, versus John F. Kennedy, whose youthful vigor inspired the nation to take on new challenges. That's not a bad choice.

That's from the Des Moines Register article explaining why they picked Hillary over the other candidates. They described FDR as a "calculating but masterful politician" who was able to deliver on policy. Is that true? Well, all we have to do is examine
FDR's Wikipedia page to see all that he accomplished.

And oh my, look at all of FDR's accomplishments! The Works Progress Administration give jobs to the unemployed. The Social Security Act to ensure that our seniors don't live in poverty. The Civilian Conservation Corps to give jobs to those willing to work on rural projects. Isn't it amazing how FDR hasn't been smeared as some kind of Communist? Oh wait... He was.
