Think about The Great Depression and what he did to resolve the economic issues of the country at that time... The banks failed it's customers and companies were abusing its factory workers.

What parts of his presidency are you focusing on?  I would outline what points you find interesting in his presidency and narrow down your paper to fit.  I usually start researching the subject and then narrow my focus based on what I find interesting.  A good topic sentence might be Herbert Hoover was one of America's most influenctual presidents.  He was this because A, B, and C.

History:\nEither of the Roosevelts as president - because they accomplished what they wanted to do. FDR gained the public confidence during depression and war. Teddy, although I don't agree with his imperialistic gains, for his efforts at expansion and the Panama Canal.\n\nToday: \nHe or she remains to be found

She was the first lady from 1932-1945 and married to Franklin Roosevelt.  She was a huge advocate for women's rights and an unofficial ambassasdor for the US even after her husband died.  A very strong lady who did many great things for the country.

No. Franklin Delano Roosevelt had more power than Lincoln. It's true Lincoln had less of a country to work with than FDR, but an act of Congress gave FDR the most power of any president and he needed it. The great depression was a disaster for the US and someone had to step in. The US was attacked by a foreign power and people were in a panic about that. Put those two events together and you have a bigger set of problems than a mere Civil War...

There is little doubt that Franklin Delano Roosevelt was our country's greatest and most well liked president.  He was elected mostly in landslides for FOUR terms, because he was against big business and for the "little man" at a time when our country really needed a hero.  He is the reason that a president can only serve two terms, because the conservatives were completely undone by a better philosophy!  He created more jobs per capita than any other president.  He created the New Deal, which enabled millions of people to capitalize on the nation's wealth, instead of simply the wealthy, whose attitude was, "screw you, I got mine!".  He was the first man to suggest and implement a highway system in this country, thereby creating more jobs.  He did the most work, he was the most admired, he brought pride back into people's lives after the Great Depression by allowing them to work through the creation of the Welfare system (before the conservatives screwed THAT up as well!).  There will never be another more beloved president!\nSecond edit:  You've gotta be kidding, sihatton!  Ronald Reagan created this country's biggest deficits until our current moron, er, I mean president!  Reaganomics was the beginning of the end of this nation staying solvent, until Bill Clinton came along!  And then Reagan II, the current Bush, the low-IQ imbecile came along to continue Reagan's failed policies!  How can you even suggest that piece of garbage, Reagan!!\nHey nunz7777, wake up!  Someone just stole your last brain cell!  Isn't it just like a conservative douchebag to take credit for Bill Clinton's great work?!!  What a brainless, bloodless freak!!

A small amount of success, social security, bank reform, stock market regulations. Failure, It was so political an era and what should have been done was not. If FDR would have built a strong Army and Navy instead of choosing make work projects The people would have had lobs and we would have been ready for Second World War. FDR, certainly knew it was coming, but because of the American peoples want of isolationism it would have been political suicide for him to do what needed to be done. FDR knew the danger that Hitler was but put head in sand. Compare to Reagan who built a strong military which took us out of a deep recession and was the downfall of Russia

i sense a homework question.\n\nSince they were in a Great Depression stage after Hoover's administration, FDR decided to do a complete makeover for the country.\n\nHis first days in office was an overhaul of the lassaiz-faire government and replaced it with hands-on government. He decided to have government funded projects to get people out of poverty as well as clean up the government which Coolidge's and Harding's administration left behind.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt promised to get the US out of the great depression by creating a whole new unconstitutional bureaucratic system of government, the New Deal.  This brought about welfare, and demolished our limited, Constitutional government.  That Constitutionalism was being eaten away at before, but this was a very big part of doing away with the Founder's original intents.\n\nWWII also brought severe federal government restrictions on the economy, and I think price controls.  That further helped in the erosion of the original, limited federal government.

It's between Lincoln and FDR because they led the country through its greatest crises and never backed down. A great president is measured through how he leads in tough times because tough times don't last, tough people do. Being a knowledgeable, strong commander in chief, and knowing how to manage spending by the government are also included. There are many debates about who is the greatest and most times your just choosing the lesser of two evils. These two are the obvious choices when you look at history. I would love to put JFK in here but the fact is he was taken from the people before he could fulfill his dream. You could argue the failures of Lincoln and Roosevelt as well but no one goes through this lifetime w/o failing. For the great ones, failure is why they succeed.

FDR - only choosing one reason it would be how innovative he was. i think that encompasses pretty much everything he did from the brain trust to d-day.

He was president when the great depression started, I remember my dad talking about it and said he was at least partally to blame by his fiscal policys. Hey Bush take a lesson here supply side economics does not work, never has never will.
