FDR was inaugurated in 1933, at the height of the Great Depression. He implemented a number of innovative policies, collectively known as "The New Deal," which helped shepherd the nation through the Depression. The later years of his presidency saw the nation drawn into World War II. FDR died of a cerebral hemorrhage in on April 12, 1945 in Warm Springs, Georgia, less than a month before the war in Europe ended.
Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) was an American politician, author, explorer, naturalist and 26th President of the United States. He remains highly regarded for his environmental conservation work, social policies and "big stick" foreign policy. Roosevelt was a transformational leader, credited with making character as important as issues - ushering in the modern era of Presidential politics and cementing America's place on the world stage. Theodore Roosevelt passed away on January 6, 1919 from a blood clot. Thomas Marshall, vice president at the time, is quoted as saying "Death had to take Roosevelt sleeping, for if he had been awake there would have been a fight."
