AP US History
Unit 7 – Conflict in the Early 20th Century, 1890–1945
Topic 7.9
How might history remember Herbert Hoover if he had taken aggressive steps early on to address the failing American economy?
He might be viewed as having caused an even deeper depression with his meddling.
He could have been impeached for overstepping presidential boundaries in terms of economic policy-making.
He may be remembered as a more effective president who mitigated some impacts of The Great Depression.
His reputation wouldn't change because his other policies were still problematic.
