Entry Ten: Father Charles Coughlin and Huey Long Criticize Roosevelt

February 1937.
Dear Diary,


It's been upsetting that people have been criticizing him and it's sad that people who have followed him are now being so mean to him. Examples like Father Charles Coughlin who was a priest that followed Roosevelt and then didn't feel like he was doing so much to help. So then he used his radio show to talk bad about Roosevelt.But then Father Charles Coughlin was also talking bad also about jewish people so then the higher priest shut down the radio show. Other example. Huey Long also didn't like Roosevelt but then he would make it known so people could go against Roosevelt but by talking bad about Roosevelt, Huey Long made lots of enemies so one day he got shot and died.  It's sad that all those people who went against Roosevelt who was trying to get rid of him were the one who were putting themselves into danger.
