Didn't have to look it up, you're just flat out wrong and the fool here. From Wikipedia:

The U.S. had not returned to 1929's GNP for over a decade and still had an unemployment rate of about 15% in 1940—down from 25% in 1932. The unemployment problem was not "solved" until the advent of World War II, when about 12 million men were drafted and taken out of the labor market. Multiple war good production programs reduced unemployment to under 2% and brought in millions of new workers to the labor markets.

FDR was elected in 1932, fool.
