Ole' FDR loved those KKK members. He appointed KKK member Hugo Black to the Supreme Court and he dumped the progressive Henry Wallace as his Vice President and appointed KKK member Harry Truman in his place. Of course, FDR shared some common hatreds with the Klan. People forget that in addition to interning Japanese, FDR interned thousands of German Americans at the beginning of WW 2, many of them German Jews. These he gleefully sent to a horrible fate at the hands of Hitler in exchange for Americans interned in Germany. Oh and don't forget, one of the liberals' greatest heroes, Earl Warren, was one the most vocal supporters of Japanese internment. It's never been clear how much he made off that deal.
