Answer 1

The right answer is C) It uplifted the morale of the country throughout his administration.

Step-by-step explanation:

F.D. Roosevelt was elected in a country hit hard by the Great Depression. People put their hopes and expectations in a leader that would fix the economy, leading it to recovery; create jobs and improve the social, human situation of the American masses.
