George Washington did not want to accept the presidency that the people wanted to give him for fear of becoming a tyrant himself, just like King George II of England, from whom they just declared themselves independent from. When he became president, he made an example by only taking 2 terms and then refusing to continue being president. It wasn't until much later that a law was introduced to prevent any single president from serving more than 2 terms.

What position did Herbert Hoover support as he campaigned for the 1932 election?
Gwar [14]
The second best answer is A although it is not entirely true. He believed that if people needed help desperately they should depend on charities whose mandate was to help the poor. He wound up using public works programs which meant that the government was interfering in the economy.

As the depression deepened he began to get involved in public works. More than a billion dollars was poured into the economy to create public works programs, but that was only a minimal amounted needed. 

The Best Answer is D. He backed the status quo of wages for the unions far too much. Businesses simply closed their doors. Some economists say that single action brought about more serious results of the depression than any other action. 

He opposed the New Deal which was Roosevelt's claim to helping overcome the depression. It is definitely not the answer.
