LAD #33: FDR's First Inaugural Adress

Franklin D. Roosevelt delivered this speech on March 4th, 1993. On a positive note, he starts off his speech by stating that the Unites States will revive and prosper after he fixes an economic crisis. He said that although the nation was suffering economically, there were ways to come out of this depression. He gave the people the hope they wanted by stating, "We have nothing to fear but fear itself." He told the people that they should not focus on money itself, but rather on the values of hard work and determination. Since the unemployment percentage was immensely low, that was FDR's number one aspect to fix. As another large supporter of preserving democracy, FDR was willing to listen to what the people had to say.
