Your suggesting that someone else in the government just accepted a bunch of japanese people in the middle of WW2 without even notifying the president?

That's something that had to come across his desk.

That's like saying that the president wouldn't know we were selling weapons to "freedom fighter" groups.

Keep in mind we oursselves deported plenty of US citizens, and people who weren't aloud to be US citizens because of racist laws against asians to japan.

I mean that link itself shows FDR's racism towards asian americans.

I figured it might have been handled by the State Department without the President knowing the full circumstances.  But seriously man, the attempted deportation of these people happened a year after Roosevelt DIED!  How do you pin that on him?

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
