Let’s see who is really good on their liberal history.
Tonight we will focus on the FDR and the 1930s.
Question # 1. During FDR’s 1930 re-election campaign what was the name of the ex-boxing commissioner that served as FDR’s state Chairman?
Question # 2. During FDR’s run for the presidency he surrounded himself with a group of men who became known as the “brain trust.” What was the name of the New York Times writer who christened them that name?
Question # 3. In what city did the convention that nominated FDR take place?
Question # 4. How many ballots were taken during the convention before FDR won the nomination?
Question # 5. Where did FDR spend election night the first time he elected President?
Question # 6. How many electoral votes did FDR win that first election?
