Hey my mom is 86 :)
I would have thought the country was very conservative in the years that FDR was in office
Did the depression make people vote him in.
He was very liberal.
“...Did the depression make people vote him in...”
Back then our country was is very bad shape, poverty, dust bowls, etc. It was bad. My Dad joined the military service so we got by - pay check to pay check. The nation pulled through and whether he should get the credit or not, I don’t know. World War II was the big savior but we had already gone through a number of rough years when December 7, 1941 happened. But one thing I do know is that FDR was worshiped by many as a God.
