I think Franklin Delano Roosevelt is a very good man. The only main reason I like him is because he called me "the most dangerous man in America". I take that as a complement. he also said he saw me as a "potential man on horseback. Someone who in a time of terrible economic disarray come to the fore and would try to seize power by extra constitutional means." HE respected me as a military leader.
Our fire controversy between us helped him win the election in 1932.
When FDR was reelected he kept me as Army Chief of Staff. I was so thrilled he kept me at that position. I thought that our temporarily "friendship" would end when he became president. It did go down hill.
