This is an excerpt from a speech made by President Roosevelt during the 1944 presidential campaign in which he responds to Republican assertions that he had left his dog Fala in the Aleution Islands and had sent a destroyer to pick him up at great cost to the taxpayers.
It is quite obvious in this clip that FDR was in declining health. Although he was reelected for a fourth term he died the following April.
