FDR did a lot of good for everyone in the United States. As I remember, whites took the most casualties during WW2. Also, if the Axis wins, who do you think Hitler is going to go after next? Just because he did not come out and advocate programs specifically for minorities, does not mean he didn't do anything for them. I believe what he did is called equality.

Unfortunately, he rounded up most of the Asian-American population and put them in guarded work camps. His administration was also responsible for limiting the black soldier's role in the War. It is the ONLY war in U.S. history where not a single Medal of Honor was awarded to a black soldier. This includes the CIVIL WAR!
Deplorable.
