Amazing images of the Democratic National Conventions where Roosevelt won the primary: 1932, 1936, 1940 and 1944. Held at some of the country’s great arenas -- the scenes are spectacular. They show the arenas filled with politicos and you can feel the excitement in these huge crowds. There are also some very unusual images including a sea of Roosevelt banners and placards (as well as his competitors), the arenas themselves, panoramas, police to guard the convention and too many to list here.
