However, in Los Angeles public schools, all ESL students are required to read extensively on how FDR saved America from the Depression. Then they are required to write a paper on how FDR saved America from the Depression. They are supposed to write this paper in order to exit the ESL program. This is a mandated curriculum.
The Depression ended at 8:00 AM Honolulu Time.
As I said, far too many people have too much invested in the cult of FDR for an objective analysis of his presidency to gain much traction.
