FDR Early Years

[@voicegirl555]

Today marks the 75th Anniversary of his death! A very complex man he was and a great leader and President! We need leaders like him! He was not always right and was disliked by many, but he stood up and lead this country thought the depression and WW2. Thank you FDR!

[@davidosterman5016]

I was struck by the sadness in his eyes in all those old photographs, even when he was home and around all the people who adored him . . .

[@handsomechankemp3333]

That's Because People We're Not Allowed To Smile In Photos Back Then And Also Because Photos Took Longer To Take Back Then

[@NicholleChristineEdwards]

Sadness? Really?

[@Dimes4Donuts]

As an only child I can relate to a lot of this video.

[@Babybugex]

Bath by mom till 9....Oh my.

[@richardlawson4317]

I was like that. I couldn't understand others at all, being an only child. School was absolutely horrible.

[@paulmiller6647]

Me as well.

[@paulmiller6647]

Yes a life of an only child.... yeah can make someone self-centered

[@cejaymin8667]

Same too I was spoiled rotten.

[@Dimes4Donuts]

Same here. It's one of the reasons I love FDR. Both of us only children.

[@voicegirl555]

Happy Birthday FDR! You were a wonderful President! Not perfect! Nobody is! But you were good! I wish you were President now! Since the 70s' we have had nothing but drege. No good leaders like you willing to take a chance and who care about the country and the people.

Reagen was a great president

[@voicegirl555]

@@ericametzinger4061 I will respect your opinion. He was not a great one to me.

"When he got to Groton and then when he got to Harvard people didn't like him". Oh boy where have I heard this experience before.

[@elwin38]

He loved his mom but he looked just like his dad.

Edward Herrmann (at beginning) is my favorite audiobook narrator and an inspiration on my channel.

[@elizabethsemarge4800]

Edward Herrmann must have loved FDR he's played him twice and voiced him at least three

[@corey-bird3489]

Elizabeth Semarge He is my favorite audiobook narrator and an inspiration on my channel to set up the material vocally in the foreground but don’t oversell it as if you’re telling someone the same story on a couch.

[@williameason5795]

I just love Ed's. Voice it's an old fashioned New Year York accent like FDR. That is sadly passing. Away. God bless him

[@388Caroline]

What was the two parts he played?

FDR: When McKinley dies, exciting When FDR dies: Truman not exciting

[@robinjohnson8149]

His parents were right... to have a good leader one must have vigor and confidence.

[@paulmiller6647]

I love this story.

[@vcab6875]

Sarah Roosevelt is similar to Eliza Rockefeller. Both powerful mothers who produced overachievers

[@paulmiller6647]

Great story.

Aye - the cruel pre programmed treatment Cahill of Alba was drubbed with at Gordonstown .... oh dear ... English upper class culture ... back then . Love is all that wee lad needed to turn that frown upside down . What a lovely visage Frank had too . Thanks , British America , for him .

[@jbossnack]

You could just say his parents spoiled him rotten.

He was a Statesman

[@paulmiller6647]

Great story, this man beats Lincoln as President. Great Chief Executive beyond comprehension. Fascinating story behind FDR truly fascinating.
