Roosevelt (FDR) didn't allow Jewish refugees aboard the M.S. St Louis to disembark at Miami. This video essay will show the viewer how little President Roosevelt did when Jewish refugees, seeking to escape prosecution by the German government, knocked on America's doorstep.
Sorry you deny history. I had a relative on that ship and that is exactly what happened.

Excellent video. Bit by bit, it is necessary to tear this tyrant down from the height of mythological greatness and reveal not only his heartless lack of humanity, but, as in this situation, the presidential power and authority he was ever so fond of abusing, was never justly used either.

Total un-American garbage.
1. FDR lobbied Cuba to let the St. Louis Jews in.
2. FDR could not have issued an Executive Order violating US immigration law - no legal way for the St. Louis Jews to enter the US. And FDR did let Jewish refugees in -- 50% of all immigrants to the US at the time were Jewish refugees.
3. FDR and US Ambassador to the UK Joe Kennedy arranged for visas for 100% of the St. Louis passengers. They are heroes.
This is a despicable lie and you should be ashamed of yourself.
