How many of the poor & the powerless who voted for Hillary know who FDR was and what he did?

What Unionsand other Left Wing activists did to improve working conditions?

It would be interesting if historians conducted their own exit polls.

I'd be interested knowing how many people know that what we now take for granted like the five day week was the result of the efforts of those on the Left, efforts which the PTB brutally fought . Do people know how much those on the Left did, how tirelessly they fought to improve life of people who had to work to live?
