WWII+-+Politics

=**Add examples of WWII affecting politics in the US.**=

//**Tim/Shawn**//: Roosevelt remains president for four terms, but then dies and Vice President Truman takes presidency. Truman is then forced to continue where his predecessor left off concerning the war.

//**Anthony**//: Roosevelt was President for four more terms before he died and Vice President Truman took over.


 * Becca/Nicole/Liz:** Roosevelt easily won the 1940 election. He had many "squabbles" with Vice President Henry A. Wallace, and stripped him of his administrative powers. He replaced him with Harry S. Truman. In the 1944 election, Roosevelt beat Tom Dewey in an election that didn't grab much attention. Wendell Wilkie, the defeated GOP candidate of 1940, became the ambassador for Roosevelt.


 * Kemsen/Lindsey:** The United States emerged from WWII as a superpower. The rest of the world started to look at us as a more stable government, and the peace-keepers of the world.
