Didn't you know that Roosevelt's running mate in 1936 was a Wombat...
But back to being serious.  Although Roosevelt did give gifts at the
Yalta Conference, you might want to consider that those gifts were
given to keep the troops of Russia, which had come damn near losing
and had millions of casualties, on the offensive instead of stopping
their offensive, which cost them many, many more lives.  As to anyone
that brought an end to the Great Depression, desperate steps had to be
taken, which included instituting the dole in America.  he was a great
President in dangerous time that "steered the Ship of our country into
a safe port."

And, I think that Reagan will also go down in history as great of a
President.  He has taken an economy that was  teetering on the edge of
the cliff that was the same one we already went over in 1929 on Black
Friday, thanks in part to the dole state that we have been suffering
from.  Although his constituency may include the crackpots that you
describe ("religous fanatics" and "crazy people with guns" to
paraphrase you), they are part of his constituency, same as radical
perverts and terrorists and liberals (nice Cicero's tricolon... let's
put a few more logs on the fire), not to mention the man-boy
buggering brotherhood.  (By the way, there will be an upcoming flame
on the discustingness of that subject).  Reagan's votes will come 
from those that look at what they had before he went into office and 
compare it to what they have now... namely jobs, lower inflation, and
an expanding economy.  Could I say that he is pilotting us out of the
"whirlpool of democratic disaster."
