　　Questions 23-26

　　Last week, we talked about President Johnson’s retirement and his sad days before his death. Toady, for this week lecture on US history; let’s turn to Eleanor Roosevelt, whose last name provides a sharp contrast. All her life, she took pleasure in her daily work using her power and her celebrity to help others less fortunate than she. As first lady, she provided a voice for people who did not have access to power, poor people, migrant workers, tenant farmers, coal miners, blacks and woman. For example, at her weekly press conference, she invited only female reporters, meaning that newspapers all over the country would be first to hire their female reporters in order to have access to first lady. As a result, an entire generation of female journalist got their start and after her husband President Roosevelt’s death, she remained a powerful inspiration to activist in the civil rights movements and the international struggle for human rights. As a consequence, at the close of her life, she was neither haunted nor saddened by what have been. On the contrary, she sustained an active engagement with the world until the very end. Also, in my research in President Roosevelt, I concluded that the central aspect of his leadership during the world war two was his ability to relax at the end of the day to cast off his worries and enjoy himself for a few precious hours. Thus, replenish his energy to meet the struggle of the following days. Because of his paraplegia, the result of early childhood disease, he was unable to relax in traditional way by playing golf or tennis or taking long walks. So he found his relaxation through conversation with friends and associates. At the end of each day, he loved nothing more than sitting in his study over the cocktail hour with his friends telling old story and jokes. Indeed, he had a rule on his cocktail hour that nothing serious could be brought about. Discussions of the war of the problems of the day were strictly forbidden. He was also able to relax with poker game at night, where the only thought was how to beat the other guys in the poker and win the game.
