Franklin D Roosevelt remains one of the most popular Presidents in American political history. He served from 1933 until his death in 1945. As was mentioned before in the article, his New Deal was very popular and turned the American economy around over time.

While policy can be daunting for the apolitical, Roosevelt used the radio to do thirty “Fireside Chats” where he talked about all of the things he was doing and where America stood in the WWII. These chats were popular because the President spoke in an understandable language that was easy to understand.
