On October 29, 1929, following the great stock crash, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt addreesses the nation. FDR does not address the price of greed, but, rather tells the country “Look here’s what happened”. Well, according to Vice-Presidential nominee Joe Biden.

Of course, Herbert Hoover was President at the time. FDR did not take office until a full three years later. And TV did not make its debut until 1939.
