HST was considered a reliable trustworthy person to be vice-president for a very sick man who was leading the country in a world war and FDR was probably going to die in his 4th term and they wanted someone whom they could trust. Andrew Johnson was a terrible vice-president after President Lincoln was shot and killed and they did not want another Andrew Johnson to follow FDR after he died.
