1628 The right place and the right people

 Franklin Roosevelt, who was born in 1882, is now 46 years old. He is the nephew of Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th President of the United States. Unlike his uncle, who was a Republican, Roosevelt entered politics as a Democrat, so he was angered by his uncle.

Scolding: "You despicable little bastard, you traitor -"

In 1905, Franklin married Eleanor Roosevelt. Eleanor's surname was not changed after the marriage. Her original surname was Roosevelt. Franklin was Eleanor's cousin.

In 1910, Roosevelt entered politics and was appointed Assistant Secretary of the Navy during the World War.

In 1920, Roosevelt failed to run for president as an assistant to James Cox, but this did not affect Roosevelt's confidence. After that, Roosevelt served as vice chairman of the Maryland Credit and Savings Company and returned to his old practice as a lawyer.

In 1921, Franklin's family was on vacation on Campobello Island. After putting out a fire, Franklin jumped into the freezing water and contracted polio.

High fever, pain, numbness and being in a wheelchair for the rest of his life did not make Franklin depressed. Franklin was optimistic and the Georgia hot springs that cooperated with the treatment were called "the place where laughter shook the sky."

Franklin returned to politics last year. He declared with overwhelming confidence that he would lead the United States out of the economic crisis. When he gave a speech on the radio, Franklin always started with "my friend." This accumulated a lot of popularity for Franklin. Although

At this time, Franklin still had to use a wheelchair, but more and more Americans believed that, unlike Hoover, who believed in free trade, Franklin could fulfill his political promises.

So in the just-concluded U.S. election, Franklin defeated Hoover with an overwhelming advantage and became the 31st President of the United States.

At this time, except for Rock, probably no one in the world believed that Franklin could serve as President of the United States four times in a row.

In southern Africa, Stoudemire even ridiculed Franklin for riding in a wheelchair, thinking that the Americans had nothing to do, so he had to push Franklin out to clean up the mess.

"Cecil, don't underestimate this guy. He is a man worthy of respect. This guy will become the greatest president of the United States." Rock will definitely not underestimate Roosevelt, but still give Roosevelt the respect he deserves. This is different from Rock.

It doesn't matter whether you hate America or not.

After completing his second term, the founding father of the United States, Washington, voluntarily gave up power and no longer served as president of the United States.

As a result, it has become an American tradition that the maximum term of a president shall not exceed two terms.

The reason why Roosevelt was re-elected as President of the United States for four terms has something to do with this special historical period, which will be introduced later.

"What is there to respect about this guy? In my impression, you have never respected Americans." Stoudemire was not used to Rock's double standards anytime and anywhere.

People are all contradictory, and Rock is also an old double standard. His behavior and speech are often contradictory. This is actually normal. Behavior and speech will change with the changes in the objective world. The inner essence is

Consistent.

Rock's inner nature is to serve the federal government of Southern Africa.

So all of Rock's actions are based on this purpose.

For example, embracing Britain, providing aid to Germany, containing Japan, and so on.

"No, no, no, what I hate is the United States, not the Americans." Rock doesn't care about the people. Of course, there are good people in the United States, such as Robert Goddard, Nikola Tesla, they

They're all pretty good people.

Although sometimes it makes Roque gnash his teeth with hatred.

Look, there is indeed another double standard here.

"So, you will go to the United States to attend his inauguration?" Stoudemire's mind was really strange.

"How is it possible -" Rock will not go unless Roosevelt sends an invitation to Rock.

No, even if Roosevelt extended an invitation to Rock, Rock probably wouldn't go.

There is no American time!

Hey, this word is so appropriate to use here.

Rock really didn't have time.

It's the end of the year, and everyone in business needs to take stock of the year's gains, and Roque needs to prepare more.

"This year is not bad. The specific statistics have not been released yet, but compared with last year, it should be about the same. The economy is still in a growth trend -" Aida is very elegant. Economic growth can be maintained in the economic crisis environment, let alone Southern Africa.

It's just a miracle.

"——Of course there is bad news. Although our fiscal revenue has declined this year, the fiscal deficit continues to expand, so the financial statements will probably not look good." Ada looked sad at this time, holding her forehead and staring straight eyes.

She looks like a little girl, she is a grandmother, and this kind of behavior is not inappropriate at all when it appears on Ada.

Yes, Arthur and Roya's child has been born. The boy is healthy, lively and cute. Following the family tradition, Ada named the child Arthur——

This way of naming is really uncreative, but a certain fish head likes it very much. It saves trouble.

As the first heir to the Baron of Cyprus, little Arthur has attracted much attention even before he was born.

There is no need to mention the relationship between Arthur Jr. and Rock. Don’t forget that Arthur Jr. is the first child of the fourth generation of the Rhodes family.

Xiaosi was very happy. Although Xiaosi also had a son, Arthur Jr. was also qualified to inherit Xiaosi's title.

It's just that the possibility is relatively small.

But this does not hinder Stoudemire's love for little Arthur.

This is also a kiss from another generation.

"It doesn't matter. Most of this year's expenditures have become the property of the federal government, and Congress will not cause trouble." Roque is confident that since some disharmonious factors have been eliminated, Southern Africa can now be regarded as politically harmonious and harmonious.

"If the Congress dares to beep, then it should be dissolved -" Ada said harshly. If Rock wanted to kill someone and set a fire, Ada would not only refuse to persuade him, but would probably help him carry gasoline.

So there is a reason why Roque didn’t marry Ada. He would marry a virtuous wife and take concubines and enjoy sex——

"Don't dissolve Congress easily. Southern Africa is not like that -" Roque now knows how to avoid taboos and cannot act recklessly.

"Roosevelt's election as president still has an impact on us." Aida also noticed the changes in the political situation in the United States. Although Roosevelt has not officially entered the White House, his influence is gradually expanding.

Like Roark, Roosevelt was also good at using the weapon of public opinion.

As early as 1920, when Roosevelt partnered with James Cox to run for president, Roosevelt had already begun to establish his people-friendly image. His famous "my friend" began at that time.

Roosevelt, who was successfully elected as the President of the United States, took full advantage of the new radio technology. Roosevelt often visited the radio station for interviews, gave speeches, expounded his political ideas, and gave Americans more confidence.

As mentioned earlier, during the economic crisis, listening to the radio became the cheapest form of entertainment for Americans, so Roosevelt's voice accompanied the radio waves and entered thousands of households, with unprecedented influence.

It can be said that Roosevelt was the first president of the United States to become a household name.

In the past, the United States was still very closed to information. Although the American media was very developed, the cultural level of Americans was not high, and few people could read newspapers. It was normal for the public to be unfamiliar with the president. When Harding was running for president,

, even only promoted in his hometown and was successfully elected.

Consider that Harding was elected president, which was ten years ago.

Roosevelt's frequent activities also have a lot to do with changes in the political winds of the United States.

The isolationism and free trade popular in the United States during the World War have proven to be unable to lead the United States out of the economic crisis.

With the jewels of southern Africa at the forefront, the United States was supposed to be able to pass even if it copied its homework. However, because of isolationism and free trade, Hoover accomplished absolutely nothing when he was president of the United States.

There is certainly no shortage of smart people in the United States. Since isolationism and free trade have proven to be failures, Morgan and Rockefeller will take the initiative to seek change even for the sake of their own business.

At this time, Roosevelt, who advocated the "New Deal", appeared, which perfectly matched the interests of all parties in the United States. It was logical that he defeated Hoover and was successfully elected.

During this period, Roosevelt had repeatedly elaborated on his "New Deal" through the radio, which mainly included three aspects: Recover, Relief, and Reform, collectively known as the "Three R's"

”.

To achieve these three aspects, Roosevelt will first start with finance. Although he has not yet moved into Whitehall, Roosevelt is already advocating the "Emergency Banking Act" and requires banks to be reviewed and a licensing system adopted to promote solvency.

banks to resume operations as soon as possible.

Then there are adjustments and reforms. The specific policies will not be repeated here. If we look at Roosevelt's "New Deal" throughout this article, it is actually copying the homework of southern Africa.

It cannot be said to be copying, after all, Rock originally copied Roosevelt's New Deal.

It's just that Southern Africa implemented these policies earlier, so this time and space became Roosevelt's homework.

Rock also knew the content of Roosevelt's New Deal. Every speech Roosevelt made in public would be promptly written in a written report and submitted to the Palace of Justice. Louis led a large group of secretaries to study it word for word, wishing he could even observe the standard symbols with a magnifying glass.

"Don't worry, the advantages are all on our side now. As long as we don't make mistakes, the Americans will not be able to catch up." Roque is confident that Roosevelt came a little late. If Roosevelt had come to power when the economic crisis just broke out early last year, he would not be able to catch up.

It is still unclear who will win.

Now Roque is really not afraid. As soon as the economic crisis broke out, Southern Africa made the right choice. This is a first-mover advantage.

Southern Africa is rich in resources and has all the raw materials needed for industry. All three major iron ore mines in the world are jointly controlled by Nyasaland Company and Fawalt Group. Coupled with oil from the Persian Gulf, Southern Africa is already invincible.

place.

After several internal integrations, Southern Africa now has a harmonious political system with unified government. Congress is willing to assist and will not pose any constraints to the federal government. This is called harmony.

The right time, right place, and southern Africa were all occupied, and even Roosevelt and Rock were not afraid.
