LAD #33

                                                                                     LAD #33 - FDR's First Inaugural Address
             Towards the end of President Hoovers term the economy had taken an unfortunate turn for the worse and the public wanted to ensure a change in office that could better improve their condition. They looked no further then Roosevelt! He was a strong choice and during his address he attempted to calm the nation and inform them that he will do his very best to turn things around. His most famous quote is 'the only thing to fear is fear itself'! This truly demonstrated the kind of person he really was. He wasn't a forgotten presidents, he promised a strong government for strong people. He said this hard time in America would only make us stronger and help us to grow. Essentially he wanted to make sure something like this never happened again.
