would love to take back womens’ rights, civil rights, Medicaid, and minimum wage. And we know that right now they’re trying to get rid of Obamacare.

Many of those things they have been taught to hate. Even if it helps them, the right wing media has told them it's bad, so it's BAD.

So that one should probably be Kennedy/LBJ/Nixon, IMHO.

The first 10 National Parks were created by Republicans, though that was back before this list, when Repubs were more liberal than they are today.

And the Interstate Highway System was created under Ike.

Those are the only ones I know of offhand, but I'm sure there are others. Most not nearly as GOOD for the public as our list is though, to be sure.

Democrats make the government work FOR YOU!
