32nd U.S. president, famous for guiding his country through the Great Depression (with the institution of the programs that made up the New Deal) and the second world war. The only president to be elected to more than two terms, Roosevelt was voted into office four times. He served about one year of his fourth term before dying in office. Many people were unaware of his polio during his presidency. Known as 'FDR'.

Franklin D. Roosevelt, commonly known as FDR, was the thirty-second president of the US and got America out of the great depression but more by going into WWII then the new deal.
Franklin D. Roosevelt was the only president to break Washington's precedent of not running for more then two terms.

32nd president of the United States of America and a total dipshit motherfucker who cheated on his wife, undermined the judicial branch of the Federal government (via court packing), broke the 2 terms per president norm (they made a law after this making it effectively impossible), ruthlessly undermined the opposition blaming them for the worst economic crisis in US History (the Great Depression), pushed an economic recovery plan that ended up crashing the economy again (New Deal), needed a global war to prevent his entire administration from being another shit stain on history.
Hey you know that guy who tried to completely destroy the Checks and Balances system of American Democracy?”

“Oh yeah Franklin D. Roosevelt”
Get the Franklin D. Roosevelt mug.
