Listening to this FDR clip is a well spent 3 minutes. Talk about a beacon of hope, directness, leadership, moving a nation forward in a time of despair.......that's FDR. This clip captures the mood of the times. FDR went on to win the 1936 election against GOP candidate Alfred Landon with 60% of the popular vote and by carrying 46 of the 48 states. They said if the campaign had gone on another month FDR with have carried Canada.
