FDR (Franklin Delano Roosevelt)

Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) was the 32nd President of the United States, serving from 1933 until his death in 1945. He led the nation through the Great Depression and World War II, implementing the New Deal—a series of programs aimed at economic recovery and social reform. FDR expanded the role of the federal government in addressing economic issues and establishing social safety nets. He was elected four times, making him the only U.S. president to serve more than two terms. His leadership style and communication skills, particularly through his "fireside chats," earned him widespread public support.
