FDR on BLOW?
What do you all think?
History channel had a thing on Pearl Harbor
That is why I ask

[Imperious Leader]

Yea i saw that too. The guy was full of medical problems and cocaine was the only thing they had back then. IN those days it was not the same issue it is today. Remember Coca Cola had cocaine at one point.

Typical IL, always defending the Democrats.

Hey, JFK was all hopped up on pain-killers his entire presidency, and he did a pretty good job

Didn’t see that or ever hear of that before. One would think under a doctor’s supervision and ‘legal’ access it would be more manageable than in our tightly controlled times today.

Was he literally doing powdered coke or was he getting injections of a cocaine solution?

It was used as an anesthetic and as a stimulant.  They experimented with alot of medical uses.  If you google image search “cocaine medicine” or “cocaine extract” you find lots of tinctures and images like this one
