FDR Party Acceptance Speech The appearance before a National Convention of its
nominee for President is unprecedented and unusual, but these are unprecedented and unusual times. Let it also be symbolic that in so doing I broke traditions. Let it be from now on the task of our Party to break foolish traditions. It is inevitable that the main issue of this campaign should revolve about a depression so deep that it is without precedent. Republican leaders not only have failed in material things, they have failed in national vision, because in disaster they have held out no hope. I pledge you, I pledge myself, to a new deal for the American people
