You consider the way FDR dealt with the Great Depression and WW2 to be "successful"? We never really emerged from the Great Depression during the ENTIRE DECADE of the 1930's. Even after all of FDR's "New Deal" policies were implemented, the country entered into a SECOND depression in 1937-1938 that was actually a SHARPER downturn than the FIRST depression. Unemployment was still running about 20% well into FDR's SECOND term! As for WW2, FDR was already president for TWO FULL TERMS before we got involved! He didn't deal with the growing threat of Hitler during the 1930's. He allowed our Pacific fleet to be destroyed by ignoring advice from the military to disperse our fleet.
