Interestingly similar to our situation in 2008… As we approach the Presidential election of November, 1936, it is well for us to take stock of our present situation and to begin to make up our minds whether we want to continue along our present course-or change it. Never in the history of our country has it been so necessary for every citizen to exercise intelligently the rights of citizenship. Our country is faced with a crisis more serious than any mere “depression”. It is faced by a question more basic than unemployment or low prices or heavy debts. When you and I go to the polls in November, 1936, we shall be voting, not for any one man, not for any one party, not for any one remedy or group of remedies, but for the continuance or discontinuance of the freedom we have enjoyed under what for want of a better name we call the American scheme of life.
