Do you think Franklin Roosevelt should have been more honest with the American people that he was confined to a wheelchair?

No, I do not believe that Franklin Roosevelt should have been more honest with the American people that he was confined to a wheelchair. Roosevelt faced great opposition and adversity during his time in office, and although it would have been beneficial to disclose his disability early on to alleviate concerns and doubts of others, I think ultimately his political skills and determination ensured that his legacy as one of the great presidents of the US endured. Furthermore, there were many people with disabilities who were not acknowledged and appreciated during this period, and by not publicizing his condition Roosevelt showed respect for the disability community and for himself in privacy that is to be commended.
