FDR deserves more than just a dime

Abraham Lincoln served well for his country during his presidency and long after, since 1905 on the penny. If we’re considering replacing Mint on the penny, we should only think of another, the same monumental personality. Past century was rich in technological and social progress. We should consider selecting an extraordinary person who gave input into development of our country and its society. My first nominators for replacing a portrait on the penny were Wilbur and Orville Wright, fathers of airplane industry. My attention also captures Martin Luther King, a great peace and civil right leader for the black community. However, my principal preference goes to the President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the greatest leader of the American Nation since Lincoln.
Roosevelt was an extraordinary person with a positive attitude that brought hope to millions of Americans in era of the Great Depression. In the time when nation was sinking into chaos, when many lost their life security as savings, jobs and were evicted on the streets, he brought a program and the opportunity to help them. His plan, New Deal was a controversial policy to intervene in country’s economy on federal level. His regulations established secure banking policy, regulated stock market, brought help for businesses and farmers, and a relief for unemployment. He had provide many establishments that provide jobs for millions of people.
Results of his initiative are seen trough these days. The most crucial is Social Security System, established by Roosevelt Administration. However it is a weak, and needs drastic reform in our time, it still provides retirement and medical assistance for millions. What Roosevelt begun we need to continue with modifications that would serve to provide security for all of us.
While entering forest we should remember that this is effect that was initiated by Roosevelt and
done by workers whose were hired to reduce unemployment. When we enjoy our trip to the State Parks we should know that they exist because of Roosevelt inspiration.
Roosevelt is one of the people that should replace Lincoln on the penny because he was not only extraordinary politician but a great leader who raised morale of the whole country in devastating time. He is also an initiator of economic recovery and founder of modern banking security system. If they decide to put Roosevelt on the penny they will able to put whoever they want on the dime, even Ronald Reagan.
