The allies were caught by surprise by the attack, and the Pacific was left susceptible to Japanese occupation. On the same day as Pearl Harbour the Japanese invaded Burma, Philippines, New Guinea and other small islands.…
Was Lincoln, FDR, Washington, or Jefferson the best president? The answer to this question is a state of opinion. In my opinion, FDR is the best president. While others may say, Washington was the first president or Lincoln helped the Union stay together, FDR concurred both a war and a financial struggle. FDR was a strong human being and overcame polio. FDR got us out of the Great Depression, concurred polio, and led the Allies to win World War Two. This is why FDR was the greatest president.…

The 32nd President, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, was the greatest president to ever lead the United States of America. He was a very fascinating, strong-willed, intelligent, and courageous man.

There are many presidents that have left an influential mark on American society, but one president stands out among them all for fulfilling a successful presidency during undesirable times. Franklin Delano Roosevelt took over office after President Herbert Hoover’s term and during the worst economic downfall the United States has ever faced. FDR acted as the voice for the Americans who were typically looked over in society. FDR was unlike most president because he connected with Americans through his fireside chats that would be broadcasted over the radio. Fireside chats were used to inform Americans of the current events and the decisions that the White House was going to make on certain issues. FDR did a remarkable job of keeping his polio out of the public eye, but even having a disability did not keep him from making such a positive impact on the American economy.…
