HOOVER or
FDR?Personality & Approach to Presidency:
1. Great Engineer: Good with #’s and figures
2. Stubborn & rigid
3. Humanitarian
4. Rep w/ Dem congress
Motto: “Rugged Individualism” NO
federal support, NO private charity, & NO
individual help
1. Confident: Had fought polio & won
2. Wanted to reform capitalism not get rid of it, like the Progressives
3. Eleanor helped him
4. Dem w/ D. Sen & D. House
Motto: “A New Deal for America”
with programs to relieve the Great Depression & reform economics
That was a low blow
F.D. -Lamo!

How HOOVER handles the G.D…
1. Convinced business NOT to cut payrolls
2. Convinced labor NOT to ask for higher wages
3. Ordered Federal reserve Board to make borrowing easier
4. Set aside $800 million for public works
5. Passed the Home Loan Bank Act so people could pay for mortgages
6. Est. Reconstruction Finance Corporation to give loans to banks, RR’s, Industry (guess who it benefits!?!)
7. LOVED the trickle down theory!
How FDR handles the G.D…
The New Deal• Wanted to bring American Gov’t into the lives
of every American…this had never happened before!
• What is the New Deal?– Provides welfare & relief to American citizens– 50% of pop took advantage
• 2 New Deals:1st: RELIEF to RECOVERY (1933)$, Immediate jobs, Food2nd: REFORMRedo gov’t and economyReform Capitalism
Hoover’s Biggest Blunders…
He
Sucks!
1. Bonus Army Shooting – WWI vets supposed to get $500 each…they want it now! He sends in the army to put them down…a baby dies! (and 2 veterans)
2. “Hoover – everythings” villes – shantytowns Flags – pocketsblankets - newspapers
Hence…
YOU CAN HELP
FDR
WIN THE PRESIDENCY!
Boy do I love little children & dogs!
Vote for Me!
I’d vote for him!...
Will America in
1932?
