Franklin Delano Roosevelt

Franklin Delano Roosevelt As a child the first movie I ever remember going to see was "Annie" with my father at the age of eight. The one scene I remember captivating me most was the little orphan's visit to the White House to visit the president, Franklin Roosevelt. I was amazed that someone like the president of the United States could be in a wheel chair. Ever since that movie I have been very fascinated …

…Even thought throughout the presidency he was in a wheelchair he stood at almost all speeches and move Americans to come together. Roosevelt united the country and enabled them to pull themselves out of and economic depression and pull together in fighting a world war.
