Compare and contrast President Franklin Roosevelt’s response to the Great Depression with the response of Prime Minister R. B. Bennett FDR Bennet The Great Depression started in 1929 with Richard Bennet winning control of Canada in 1930 then three years later Franklin D. Roosevelt came to presidency. Soon the depression was coming to an end with the help of Roosevelt’s New Deal and shortly after Canada’s New Deal. They both worked on unemployment, social unrest, and both of their countries farming. Even though Bennet only had five years to help vs. Franklin’s twelve years he helped Canada greatly. Roosevelt’s New Deal lasted from 1933 to 1934 included programs to help unemployment like the CCC, and the AAA.
“Using the preceding thesis or creating your own, write an essay analyzing the rhetorical strategies John F. Kennedy uses in his inaugural address to achieve his purpose.” Former president John F. Kennedy is arguably one of the most well-known political figures in US history. Despite some controversial decisions made during his presidency, Kennedy has continued to remain one of the most highly regarded presidents in the public’s opinion. One reason for his immense popularity among the American people both during his term and in current times is his effectiveness as a public speaker. While each of his speeches is obviously centered on various topics, every one contains the same effective rhetorical strategies. Through his simple, optimistic, and charismatic rhetorical style, former president John F. Kennedy was able to connect with the American people on a personal level that no other president has ever been able to replicate.
I will be focusing on just a few key areas that have been struck due to the recession for President Obama and the Great Depression for President Roosevelt and how each man either fixed the problem or is attempting to. Here is just a short list of issues: unemployment rate, financial institutions and the stock market. Just like President Roosevelt, President Obama hit the ground running with his uncanny ability to act upon the economic crisis that was yet again effecting the American people. Obama scored major points with the people since within his first hundred days in office he was able to get congress a much needed stimulus package for their approval that would take care of the financial crisis the American people were facing with major businesses and financial institutions declining at a very fast pace. However, Roosevelt was facing a much worse scenario with an unemployment rate of nearly 25% after the stock market crash of 1929.
Nerves of Steel History 11 10/31/12 Andrew Carnegie is hailed as a man who has done many great services to this nation. While this belief is true and his efforts are numerously noted, Andrew Carnegie remains a man just like the rest of us. He has had his struggles and he has had his triumphs. Like most of us, he came from humble beginnings, and like all of us at some point in our lineage, walked through the doors of Ellis Island and stepped foot on American soil to realize a dream: a dream of a better life, a dream of success, and a dream of endless possibilities. Andrew Carnegie and his family had just become part of the glorious melting pot that we call the United States - a land where hard-working men and women can realize their full potential and achieve greatness (much like Carnegie was destined to do).

The outbreak of the Cold War was triggered by both the USA and the USSR, but I believe that the USA was primarily to blame. This is because of many reasons like the Truman Doctrine, Marshall Aid and other methods put into actions by Truman. The Marshall Aid, also known as the European Recovery Program was the American program to aid Europe where the United States gave monetary support to help rebuild European economies after the end of World War II in order to prevent the spread of Soviet communism. The plan was in operation for four years beginning in April 1947. The goals of the United States were to rebuild a war-devastated region, remove trade barriers, modernize industry, and make Europe prosperous again.
