Answer the following question: Information: - Wendell Lewis Willkie (born Lewis Wendell Willkie; February 18, 1892 October 8, 1944) was an American lawyer and corporate executive, and the 1940 Republican nominee for President. Willkie appealed to many convention delegates as the Republican field's only interventionist: although the U.S. remained neutral prior to Pearl Harbor, he favored greater U.S. involvement in World War II to support Britain and other Allies. His Democratic opponent, incumbent President Franklin D. Roosevelt, won the 1940 election with about 55% of the popular vote and took the electoral college vote by a wide margin. - Franklin Delano Roosevelt (his own pronunciation, or ; January 30, 1882 April 12, 1945), commonly known as FDR, was an American statesman and political leader who served as the 32nd President of the United States from 1933 until his death in 1945. - World WarII (often abbreviated to WWII or WW2), also known as the Second World War, was a global war that lasted from 1939 to 1945, although related conflicts began earlier. It involved the vast majority of the world's nationsincluding all of the great powerseventually forming two opposing military alliances: the Allies and the Axis. It was the most widespread war in history, and directly involved more than 100 million people from over 30 countries. In a state of "total war", the major participants threw their entire economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities behind the war effort, erasing the distinction between civilian and military resources. Marked by mass deaths of civilians, including the Holocaust (in which approximately 11 million people were killed) and the strategic bombing of industrial and population centres (in which approximately one million were killed, and which included the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki), it resulted in an estimated 50 million to 85 million fatalities. These made World WarII the deadliest conflict in human history. - White primaries were primary elections held in the Southern states of the United States of America in which only white voters were permitted to participate. White primaries were established by the state Democratic Party units or by state legislatures in many Southern states after 1890. The white primary was one method used by white Democrats to disenfranchise most black and other minority voters. They also passed laws and constitutions with provisions to raise barriers to voter registration, completing disenfranchisement from 1890 to 1908 in all states of the former Confederacy. - Southern Democrats are members of the U.S. Democratic Party who reside in the American South. - The Solid South or Southern bloc was the electoral voting bloc of the states of the Southern United States for issues that were regarded as particularly important to the interests of white Democrats in the southern states. The Southern bloc existed especially between 1877 (the end of Reconstruction) and 1964 (the year of the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964). During this period, the Democratic Party controlled state legislatures; most local and state officeholders in the South were Democrats, as were federal politicians elected from these states. Southern Democrats disenfranchised blacks in every state of the former Confederacy at the turn of the century. This resulted essentially in a one-party system, in which a candidate's victory in Democratic primary elections was tantamount to election to the office itself. White primaries were another means that the Democrats used to consolidate their political power, excluding blacks from voting in primaries. - The United States presidential election of 1940 was the 39th quadrennial presidential election , held on Tuesday , November 5 , 1940 . The election was fought in the shadow of World War II in Europe , as the United States was emerging from the Great Depression . Incumbent President Franklin D. Roosevelt , the Democratic candidate , broke with tradition and ran for a third term , which became a major issue . The surprise Republican candidate was maverick businessman Wendell Willkie , a dark horse who crusaded against Roosevelt 's perceived failure to end the Depression and his supposed eagerness for war . Roosevelt , acutely aware of strong isolationist and non-interventionism sentiment , promised there would be no involvement in foreign wars if he were re-elected . Willkie conducted an energetic campaign and managed to revive Republican strength in areas of the Midwest and Northeast . However , Roosevelt won a comfortable victory by building strong support from labor unions , urban political machines , ethnic voters , and the traditionally Democratic Solid South , going on to become the first United States president in American history to be elected to a full third term . Roosevelt won reelection in 1940 thanks to his wide victory margins in the nation 's large cities . In the North , cities with a population over 100,000 gave Roosevelt 60 % of their votes , while smaller cities , rural , and suburban areas in the North favored Willkie 52 % -48 % . It was just enough to provide the critical electoral college victory margin for Roosevelt . - The Holocaust (from the Greek ': "holos", "whole" and "kaustos", "burnt"), also referred to as the Shoah"' (Hebrew: , "HaShoah", "the catastrophe"), was a genocide in which Adolf Hitler's Nazi Germany and its collaborators killed about six million Jews. The victims included 1.5million children and represented about two-thirds of the nine million Jews who had resided in Europe. Some definitions of the Holocaust include the additional five million non-Jewish victims of Nazi mass murders, bringing the total to about 11 million. Killings took place throughout Nazi Germany, German-occupied territories, and territories held by allies of Nazi Germany.
