1) Compare and contrast the men that ran in the election of 1932. Who was

The Republicans nominated Herbert Hoover to run for president in the
election of 1932. The Democrats chose Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR).
He had been born to a wealthy New York family and served as the
governor of New York.
FDR: Politician in a Wheelchair
FDR's wife, Eleanor Roosevelt, was very active her husband's political
career. She was loved by liberals and hated by conservatives.
FDR was a very good public speaker. In the election of 1932, the
Democrats called for a balanced budget and social and economic reforms.
2) How did FDR attack the Republican “Old Deal” with his “New Deal”
according to the textbook? Why were SOME American’s beginning to distrust
the Republican Party?
During the election, FDR attacked the Republican Old Deal and
supported a New Deal for the "forgotten man."
Many Americans distrusted the Republican party because of the dire
economic state of the country (Great Depression). Herbert Hoover
believed that the worst of the Depression was over. Hoover reaffirmed his
faith in American free enterprise and individualism.
3) What happened during the first 100 days of FDR’s Presidency? What and
why was there a bank holiday?
On March 6-10, President Roosevelt declared a national banking holiday
as a prelude to opening the banks on a sounder basis. The Hundred Days
Congress/Emergency Congress (March 9-June 16, 1933) passed a series
laws to help improve the state of the country. This Congress
4) What were FDR’s three R’s (Explain/Define Each)?
FDR and the Three R's: Relief, Recovery, Reform
Congress also passed some of FDR's New Deal programs, which focused
on: relief, recovery, reform. Short-range goals were relief and immediate
recovery, and long-range goals were permanent recovery and reform.
Some of the New Deal programs gave the President unprecedented
powers, which included the ability of the President to create legislation.
Many of the programs that gave the President this authority were
declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court.
Congress gave President Roosevelt extraordinary blank-check powers:
some of the laws gave legislative authority to the President.
