FDR history day title please!?

Hope in the face of Despair

He gave people hope during the Great Depression.

He was elected for 4 terms, not 3.

FDR not only took the U.S. out of the 'Great Depression' by forming several gov't. agencies to regulate the market ('Wall Street'), as well as prices on goods, the WPA (Works Progress Administration, under which the Golden Gate Bridge was built), he also formed the CCC, which put thousands of men and women to work all across the U.S. building and repairing our infrastructure. They worked on bridges [or built them, one can be seen over the Rogue River in SW Oregon], built saw mills, forest trails, (out of some of these came the Forest Service).

FDR secretly met with the British PM, Winston Churchill while Britain was fighting the Nazi regime and out of this meeting came the Lend Lease program, which gave Britain much needed materials. [We did not enter the war until after Pearl Harbor was attacked by one of the Nazi's allies].

Not only did he get special waivers from the US Congress to remain President for more than the usual time limit contained in the US Constitution, he was also a well loved 'Father Figure' for US citizens during WWII, and under his terms the Manhattan Project was formed, which put together the A-bombs, which ended WWII [Pacific Theater], saving thousands of American lives. [although it was Pres. Harry Truman who gave the final orders to drop the bombs, (which he had known nothing about until he took over as Pres. after the death of FDR.

[Note: I remember the day he died. I was in 3rd grade, and wondered why all the 'grownups' were crying. My Grandmother told me why. Both my parents were in the military at the time].
