FW: FDR's First Inaugural Address

From my friend Steve Ruddel

Subject: FDR's First Inaugural Address

I found this speech inspiring. There are even some possible parallels to our own current political/economic times.I hope our next President, whoever they are, can lead our nation in a similarly honest and responsible way.
