President Franklin D Roosevelt addresses crowd in Philadelphia during 1940 presidential campaign.

President Franklin Delano Roosevelt at the Philadelphia Convention Hall and Civic Center (3517 Civic Center Blvd, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The President speaks from the podium and gives a political speech responding to what he characterizes as deliberate falsehoods promulgated by the political opposition. He talks about dictators and the practice of repetitions of falsehoods, saying, "Certain techniques of propaganda, created and developed in dictator countries, have been imported into this campaign. It is the very simple technique of repeating and repeating and repeating falsehoods, with the idea that by constant repetition and reiteration, with no contradiction, the misstatements will finally come to be believed. Dictators have had great success in using this technique; but only because they were able to control the press and the radio, and to stifle all opposition. That is why I cannot bring myself to believe that in a democracy like ours, where the radio and a part of the press — I repeat, where the radio and a part of the press-remain open to both sides, repetition of deliberate misstatements will ever prevail. I make the charge now that those falsifications are being spread for the purpose of filling the minds and the hearts of the American people with fear. They are used to create fear by instilling in the minds of our people doubt of each other, doubt of their Government, and doubt of the purposes of their democracy. This type of campaign has a familiar ring. It reminds us of the scarecrow of four years ago that the social security funds were going to be diverted from the pockets of the American workingman. It reminds us of the famous old scarecrow of 1932, 'Grass will grow in the streets of a hundred cities; a thousand towns; the weeds will overrun the fields of millions of farms.' The American people will not be stampeded into panic. The effort failed before and it will fail again. The overwhelming majority of Americans will not be scared by this blitzkrieg of verbal incendiary bombs. They are now calmly aware that, once more, 'The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.' I consider it a public duty to answer falsifications with facts. I will not pretend that I find this an unpleasant duty. I am an old campaigner, and I love a good fight."
