FDR's Last Secret
For decades what FDR died from, and when he knew he had it has been hidden from the public. FDR may have died more than 60 years ago, but these questions still matter. Not only does presidential health—and the public's right to know about it—remain a controversial issue, but in Roosevelt's case, the lies in question, if true, changed history. As neurologist Steven Lomazow and journalist Eric Fettman point out in a book coming out this January, FDR's Deadly Secret, widespread knowledge of Roosevelt's cancer would have prevented him from running in 1944 and thus likely altered the shaping of postwar Europe. Would over 200 million have been turned over to Stalin? A man named Dewey opposed that. Would atomic bombs have been used on Japan? A man named Dewey opposed that. Would the Cold War have begun with Russia in such a powerful position? Would spies and espionage agents been allowed to remain in government? http://www.slate.com/id/2236504/pagenum/all/
