Facing a country reeling from the Great Depression and demanding immediate action, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt pushed through a remarkable number of new programs during the first 'First Hundred Days.' Since then, it has become a milestone for every president and this week, I take a look at the first 100 days of the Obama Administration.
Here is the lead:
During the Presidential race, then candidate Barack Obama promised to support entrepreneurs and innovation. The Obama Administration is now coming up on the end of the first 100 days. It is of course too early to be definitive about any new administration, but it is a popular milestone worthy of marking with a longer than normal post at some early indicators as to how entrepreneurs and job creators will fare under this President and Congress.
Now read the rest.
