Diary+1

=DIARY= =October 14, 1937= ====Finally I got the time to take you out of that broken drawer. I have so many things going on in my mind right now and it is driving me crazy. I can't talk about this to my wife nor anyone else. I just need to express my thoughts somewhere safe.==== ====Right now is 1937, the weather is slightly windy but still sunny. On Wednesday 20 Franklin D. Roosevelt is in for a second term as President of the United States. He later on, on Friday, proposed a plan to enlarge the Supreme Court of the United States. Today we had a meeting and I had not been able to sleep peacefully because of a problem the U.S still has to overcome known as the Great Depression. Japan had recovered from their depression why isn’t it easy for us to do so too? We have been informed that Japan had invaded China. Japan is currently at war with China. There is too much to deal starting with the war currently residing in East Asia along with the civil war outbreak in Mexico. This broke out on Thursday the 18th the Spanish Civil War which was when Spanish Republican forced the Italian a grave defeat at the Battle of Guadalajara. On September Sunday the 5th the fall of Llanes happened and following that, Monday the 6th it was the start of the Battle of El Mazuco. But, do we necessarily have to aid Japan? After all we are close allies. If we do aid Japan, then our economy will just become worse, there will be another huge downfall. We have not recovered yet from the depression brought from the previous war. Lord be with us and guide the United States of America as we make thoughtful decisions. With the help from us, will China be able to breath a little bit and shrug Japan off it’s back? Japan is one of our allies but what they are doing to China is just madness, as well as making Europe a part of this matter. Should America get involved and settle this madness? This unequal chaos should stop and unless this stops, I know for sure I am not going to be able to sleep without having a nightmare or an endless search of a solution.- Just now I heard that Japan had occupied the East Coast of China.====

=DIARY II= =July 15, 1940= ====Today, I read back on what I had wrote three years ago and can relate to this still. I am too filled with other things to discuss about general stuff such as the weather. I do't have time to eat or talk to my family. I still am taunted with nightmares and endless stress. A lot had happened in the past three years. Just last year ,1939, The President of the United-States Franklin D. Roosevelt approved the sales of U.S. war planes to France. But from that two years ago, 1938, Frances Moulton became the first president of a US national bank. On Monday of 31 in 1938 there was an effort to try restore investor confidence, the New York Stock Exchange reveals a fifteen-point program aimed to upgrade protection for the investing public. August 1939 Wednesday the 23 Germany and the Soviet Union signed a non-aggression treaty- Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. This should be signed between Japan and the Soviet Union. Then, it will have at least a small impact on the invasion of Japan. We had declared neutrality in war in September 1939. We can not risk anymore economic depression. It is better to stay neutral rather than get involved and cause more damage. Then this happened. Wednesday 11 of October 1939 President Franklin D. Roosevelt presented a letter signed by Albert Einstein- urging us to rapidly develop an atomic bomb program, This known as the Manhattan Project. As for the war in Europe, it is currently still in progress. Then, the Japan declared Nanking to be the capital of a new Chinese puppet government, controlled by Wang Ching- wei. What is next? What more causes can be done. I am afraid that if we don not interfere further more, then China as well as the countries it possess are in danger. I really do hope that the treaty made between Russia and Japan come into play real soon. We are at the moment creating a atomic bomb. Maybe this will threaten Japan or at least give them a sense of fear so they will stop the madness and the chaos they are causing.====

=DIARY III= =August 15, 1941= ====December 7, 1941 I remember exactly what happened this day. Japanese planes had come and attacked the Pearl Harbor. It was a Sunday and the men were obviously deep in their sleep not knowing what was going to happen to them in just a while. The attack on Pearl Harbor caused so much damage. The ships on deck, planes, soldiers were all at loss. IS there any way to stop them now? Is it our duty to stop them? Since they had attacked us first, we should fire back. I will not tolerate this madness. They are like mindless people just wanting more power. Do they not know what we are capable of? We should take action and show them who’s the bomb. This is also the perfect opportunity to show the others what we are capable of. This will maybe eventually put a stop to all the chaos. We cannot risk any more lives. This shall be the only military action we take against Japan. If we go to war, America will lose the image of a safe nation and I will not tolerate risking not only the lives of soldiers but the lives of innocent souls. More over, I cannot imagine what will happen to my family. I will do anything to stop the war that will come between Japan and United States of America. We will have to do anything to keep Japan out of our territory and not let this happen again. Several leaders of the United States of America had gathered to discuss this matter. I am sure that we are going to “test” our bombs. We should do this. We will show who’s in power and make Japan surrender. Hopefully. If they do not get their heads straight, we will barge into to their nation and cause huge damage. What they have done to us will be nothing compared to what we will do to them. I pray everyday that God will lead us to the right decision and help us not make a mistake. Other nations will be watching everyone little thing we do. We can not mess up. May God be with us and bless our nation and we be prepared for any hardship or walls that may hinder us for a while and take us off track. But every time that happens, since we have God on our side, I am pretty sure that we can recover from any hardship and become a more developed nation as we win every battle and struggle.==== =DIARY 4= =July 25, 1945= ====On April 12 we lost an important person. Someone whom I had worked for and with. He will be missed gravely and nothing can replace this person. President Frank D. Roosevelt. It was an honor to meet someone like him. I will never forget all the things we have done even if we talked no more than three times during his serve. I pray that he will watch over the nation along with God and secure our nation as we fulfill the duties we are given to achieve. He will be one of the greatest person no, the greatest president the United States of America had. Oh God do I pray that during his funeral and passing nothing bad will happen to ruin the mood for everyone one. But, we should not mourn for too long. There are still a lot to be done. Because President Roosevelt had deceased without a long term warning, I as the Vice President have to step up and take his duty as well as finish what he had started. This will be new for me. If only I had talked a bit more with him and discussed matters with him. It is as if he had just left with me hanging. No one can be blamed though because we haven’t seen this coming. At a time like this and the state we are in, I can feel the burden and stress former President Roosevelt might have felt. This all is too real to be true. I cannot express my emotions as I want. I do not know how I feel at all. Should I be happy or stressed because of this? A little bit of both indeed. I am sad for the loss of former President Roosevelt yet happy for my new position but at the same time worried and stressed because of all the burden that will be and is on my shoulder. It is not like I can shake it off. I knew the consequences of a Vice President. I knew this and ran for this position. I should be happy to fight as well as think and the nation I love oh so dearly. God might have given this opportunity for a reason. To prove myself and that is exactly what I will do. I will prove to the other nations that the 33rd President of United States of America should be feared and looked up upon due to the many accomplishment he makes. I am so anxious to start working for this beloved nation. Watch me America as we reach the top of the mountains of success and we will use the atomic bomb, given by Robert Oppenheimer, to show who’s the boss. Good bye Japan and Hiroshima. You have been warned. I am not the bad person. Japan is for refusing the Potsdam Declaration.====
