Hoover did mismanage the economy, after the depression had been going three years, almost as badly as GW Bush is doing now but in a different way.

The reason he didn't fix the ecomomy is because he didn't have proactive cooperative social plans which put a foundation under peoples' lives and gave them a way to work themselves back to prosperity. FDR did that and it worked.
