Franklin Roosevelt’s Efforts to Resolve the Economic Crisis During the Great Depression

Roosevelt’s New Deal in Political Cartoons FDR was always portrayed as active, active, active in political cartoons! After four years of Herbert Hoover’s laissez-faire strategies to deal with the Great Depression, Americans were happy to have a president who brought energy and vigor to the job, and who was trying something – anything! – to fixe the nation’s economic problems. How does this political cartoon depict President Franklin Delano Roosevelt? How does Congress seem to fell about him? From what you know about FDR, what to you find interesting about the caricature to the right?

The New Deal Study the political cartoon to the right. Who is the patient in the cartoon? Who is the doctor? Who is the portrayed as a concerned wife? Now, look at the remedies which have been used by the doctor, FDR? Which of the medicines is in the largest bottle? Why? What does Roosevelt have to say about the patient’s prognosis? Is he 100% confident that he has the proper medicine in his bag of remedies? What does this suggest about the New Deal?

The Court Packing Plan Although Franklin Roosevelt was one of the most popular presidents in all American history – he was elected four (4) times, after all – he did make some serious miscalculations. After the Supreme Court ruled several of his New Deal Programs unconstitutional, he attempted to undermine the power of the court by proposing a law expanding the bench by six justices. He would get to appoint the new justices, thus ensuring that most of the Supreme Court would agree with his policies! Most American cried foul, believing the Constitution’s checks and balances were working just fine, thank you very much!
