Franklin D. Roosevelt was governor of New York, when the Wall Street Crash in October 1929, created the worst depression in American history. Roosevelt made strenuous attempts to help those without work. He set up the New York State Emergency Relief Commission and appointed the respected Harry Hopkins to run the agency. Another popular figure with a good record for helping the disadvantaged, Frances Perkins, was recruited to the team as state industrial commissioner. With the help of Hopkins and Perkins, Roosevelt introduced help for the unemployed and those too old to work.
Roosevelt was seen as great success as governor of New York and he was the obvious choice as the Democratic presidential candidate in 1932. Although Roosevelt was vague about what he would do about the economic depression, he easily beat his unpopular Republican rival, Herbert Hoover.
Roosevelt's first act as president was to deal with the country's banking crisis. Since the beginning of the depression, a fifth of all banks had been forced to close. As a consequence, around 15% of people's life-savings had been lost. By the beginning of 1933 the American people were starting to lose faith in their banking system and a significant proportion were withdrawing their money and keeping it at home. The day after taking office as president, Roosevelt ordered all banks to close. He then asked Congress to pass legislation which would guarantee that savers would not lose their money if there was another financial crisis
The New Deal was a series of economic programs implanted in the United States. These so called programs, impacted the American citizens deeper into depression.
Those of "color" were left out of the new deal. The African American citizens were left out of the new deal and segregation laws continued to pass.

Yes, he attacked the town of Columbus, New Mexico killing several American citizens and prompting a Punitive Expedition led by General John Pershing into Mexico.
The biggest consequence of the New Deal on the history of the United States was that more power was given to the federal government during that period which led to the federal government getting more involved in the day to day lives of the American citizens. Prior to the Depression and the New Deal, the people looked to the federal government for regulation of trade and commerce and for defense. Now, the federal government entered the daily lives of the citizens. President Lyndon Johnson's "Great Society" can be seen as an outgrowth of the New Deal, as well as President Bush's "No Child Left Behind" educational program.
Social Security is probably the most important New Deal program as it helped millions of senior citizens out of poverty.

The problems the new deal solved were the unemployment rate and the hope of the American people.
