All the talk of Obama as the new FDR was right in one respect. FDR also didn’t fix the terrible economy he inherited. Not after 4 years, not after 8. The War fixed it.

It didn’t get to where it had been until the war, but it was steadily recovering throughout, except for a small dip in ‘37 when FDR was convinced to try to balance the budget. Checkit:
