English · Politics

Franklin D. Roosevelt delivers remarks to the Democratic National Convention on June 26, 1924, offering to withdraw Al Smith's name from nomination. The recording centers on a specific moment in convention proceedings, with Roosevelt addressing the delegates and the political question before them.

As a historical speech rather than a dramatic radio program, it offers a direct encounter with public oratory: the speaker's words, delivery, and appeal to an audience gathered for a national party convention. Listeners can hear Roosevelt speaking in the context of the Democratic Party's 1924 nomination process.
