What do you regard as the most important reasons for FDRs win in the 1932 Presidential election?

unlike Hoover, the President of America during the start of the Depression (1929) who believed in laissez-faire economics, in which the government would not intervene in business.  During the Great Depression, whereby the nation succumbed to one of the fiercest events in history, the people of America turned to the government to solve the problem but not much was done under Hoovers rule.  This made the people feel that Roosevelt was the only alternative if any form of state welfare was to be provided.  In Roosevelt’s inaugural speech of a ‘New Deal’ for America, the most important ones were the Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA), the Civil Works Administration (CWA) and the Works Progress Administration (WPA).  Each one of these programs was to have an impact on the nation that aided in helping the people and the badly scarred economy.  These programs also lifted the spirits and morals of the people of America.   Also, in his inaugural speech he said, "I pledge you, I pledge myself, to a new deal for the American people". He meant that, as president, he promises a new America that will help the people and preserve their morale.  The impact of that sentence engaged the American people in believing that Roosevelt seemed to be committed to helping the nation out of the economic crisis and directly helping the people.  He spoke of relief and public works money. He wanted to develop a plan to cut agricultural overproduction. Another main reason for Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s victory was because the people of America had a bad perception of Herbert Hoover being the man who doomed the country and were against him.  Hoover did not stand much of a chance and the only competition Roosevelt had was … whereby he made an agreement that … would be assigned as Vice President as Roosevelt became President of America. To what extent did Herbert Hoover lose the election, rather than FDR winning it? Herbert Hoover lost the election rather than FDR winning it up to a certain extent because although Hoover was at a bad state for a government, he did carry out some programs that were efficient and promising (although at a late stage).
