This can also exemplify the struggles of a having a difference between the majority of the Congress disagreeing with the executive branch. A reason FDR was able to pass so many new regulations and administrations was because the Congress was on his side.
ReplyDeleteIt would be interesting to see the difference between how much happened during Obamas term vs. Roosevelts because he had congress on his side. Showing that there is too great of a division in government to get anything done.
