Description

Following a decade of roaring prosperity in America, something invincible was proving vulnerable. The Great Depression was ravaging the economy and destroying lives, creating a dire need for bold, honest leadership. With the help of Pulitzer Prize-winners Doris Kearns Goodwin and David M. Kennedy, along with Allida Black, the Director of The Eleanor Roosevelt Papers, Jon Meacham delivers a vivid and intimate look at a President who countered depression with action, and who conquered fear with hope.

I need to use FDRs words bc they're mine. I just couldn't organize them as he had but I feel it fits today's needs in this world among so many desperately searching for hope. He found a way to connect and use that power to unite a solution for tomorrow by creating it today. I will find a way to reach every heart for there is where all needs lie. God bless people with hope and courage and the security to safely close there eyes for a moment to acknowledge the power within. Together we can triumph! It has to be believed to cultivate a truth that exists with unyielding faith. Compassion has to be the new tough love. It has to unite all as one not all as each separate group as one but ALL as one, and then it can be done.
