Outlining the New Deal Program
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt in his speech addresses the American people directly, like close friends. He acknowledges the issues that are affecting the people and lays out some of the changes he intends to implement. Firstly, he talks about offering 250,000 people young men jobs in forestry and flood prevention which would help provide for their dependents. Secondly, the president intends to request Congress to put all the government-owned properties at work after wasteful years of inactivity, which was intended for helping improve the Tennessee Valley. Further president Franklin means to pass a legislation that would help reduce the mortgage distress among landowners and farmers in the United States, through easing the debts that have given Americans sleepless nights.
In his speech, the president makes it known that for the nation to get out of the great depression; the federal government has to be involved. One of the policies that he thought would help was the Farm Relief Bill which is supposed to use different methods, either together or alone to assist in increasing farmers, returns on their products as well as help in times of disastrous over-production.
In the past years, over-production was an issue as the farmers were forced to sell high-quality products at unreasonably low prices which led to great losses and financial instability. The policy, therefore, will be a solution for emergencies and its success s dependent on what the future holds.

The speech delivered by President Franklin was meant to comfort and reassure the American people during the Great Depression (Goodwin 195). The American people, therefore, felt that there was a solution and even though they were going serious financial issues, the President would return the nation to its greatness. The intimate way in which the speech is delivered, made the Americans feel like they were a part of the decision-making process and as though they were huge contributors to the changes required. More importantly, the speech was full of hope which helped the president gain the trust of his people.
