Leaders of the Twentieth Century:
"Roosevelt, Hail to the Chief",
24min
Roosevelt is elected President while
the country is in the depths of the
Great Depression. The American
people eagerly embrace his promise
of a New Deal. His leadership, vigor
and courage restore a sense of
purpose to a whole nation.
Leaders of the Twentieth Century:
"Roosevelt, Manipulator-in-Chief",
30min
The dilemma of a leader who had to
wage war on many fronts--the grand
alliances, rivalries between
generals, politicians, and heads of
state. Often portrayed as given to
bold actions, particularly in
foreign affairs, Roosevelt moves
cautiously and is deeply sensitive
to the ebb and flow of public
opinion.
