American statesman and political leader who served as the 32nd President of the United States. A Democrat, he won a record four presidential elections and dominated his party after 1932 as a central figure in world events during the mid-20th century, leading the United States during a time of worldwide economic depression and World War II. His program for relief, recovery and reform, known as the New Deal<\/a>, involved a great expansion of the role of the federal government in the economy. As a dominant leader of the Democratic Party, he built the New Deal Coalition<\/a> that brought together and united labor unions, big city machines, white ethnics, African Americans, and rural white Southerners in support of the party.<\/p>\n
