Chapter 1057： Roosevelt wants to run (1/2)
Historically, when Roosevelt ran for president for the third time, the United States had not yet entered the war. The isolationism and wait-and-see mood in the United States was still very strong. Now, it is completely different. The United States has been completely involved in the war. in!
During the war, everything must be kept simple. The presidential campaign is a very complicated process, which consumes money and at the same time. The US president should not waste time in this aspect. There is not much time left for the United States!
”Even, I think that our presidential election can simplify the plan. We want to win the war. We cannot waste our limited energy on such meaningless and valueless activities. President Roosevelt is the most suitable for us in the United States. President, what do you think?” Lister said to the people below.
Suddenly, many people are nodding their heads, which makes sense!
Roosevelt took the United States out of the predicament of the economic crisis. After that, Roosevelt took the United States and grew stronger step by step. Before the island country invaded, Roosevelt was aware of the coming of war and made preparations in advance, but the domestic isolationism was too great. It's thick, and Roosevelt can't let go of his hands and feet.
The attack on Pearl Harbor fully proved Roosevelt's foresight, and Roosevelt was the most suitable president of the United States!
But how can the convention left by President Washington be broken?
Roosevelt did not attend this meeting. For him, staying outside was the best choice. Just like the ancient China, he added his yellow robe to his body. It was a taboo, and he had to subordinate and persuade again and again. Only when the destiny belongs, will they have to accept it.
Roosevelt did not attend, but his wife, Eleanor, arrived in the noisy meeting place just in time.
Looking at the people present, Eleanor showed the style of the first lady. Her eyes were very moving, as if she could speak, her voice was so soft, but not lacking in reason.
”1940 is not a normal period, but a special period of war. Except for the question of what we can do for the interests of the whole country, we should not quarrel about any other issues.”
”Franklin did not have any ideas to break the convention, but I firmly believe that everyone present is sensible and hopes to elect a president who is most suitable for our United States and can lead the United States to victory. I firmly believe that Franklin is that one. People, in his heart, have always firmly believed that the United States will win and that Germany and the island countries will be the ultimate losers. He has been working hard for this.”
Eleanor's words finally infected everyone present. The internal voting of the Democratic Party finally decided to nominate Roosevelt as the next presidential candidate.
At this time, Roosevelt was inspecting the Newport News Shipyard. He is still the current President of the United States and is responsible for the interests of the United States.
The United States needs a lot of aircraft carriers! Although Roosevelt was not a soldier, he also keenly foreseeed that the combination of aircraft carrier and carrier-based aircraft would definitely change future maritime warfare.
For example, if the islanders did not have an aircraft carrier, they would never succeed in attacking Pearl Harbor!
But now, if it wants to regain control of the Pacific, the United States needs to maximize its industrial production capacity and build a large number of aircraft carriers!
