I have no idea when it\u2019s going to happen. I\u2019m not even sure if. We never got to critical mass with FDR throughout the Great Depression, and we got FDR 2 here, gang, and he\u2019s even more popular and beloved than FDR was.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Curtis in Springdale, Arkansas.
