FDR conveys in his speech how determined he is to implement his New Deal plan regardless of political or congressional opposition he would face because of how strongly he felt that it was needed for the well-being of the people. The same type of determination exhibited by both Cobell in her legal battles, and in the African American protesters in the painting "Confrontation on the Bridge". All 3 pieces make the case that in order to change systems, you need to have the courage to face adversity in the way. (DMS)

Both FDR and Jerry have a bold spirit in which they display the determination to accomplish their goals. FDR with his fighting spirit, declaring war on economic recession, and doing whatever it takes to win that war. Jerry is similarly determined to go through the tunnel almost at war with himself, and defeating childhood to be able to pass through his rite of passage into manhood. Both embody the fighting spririt needed to accomplish your goals regardless of the obstacles in their way

Thomspon writes in Bile's article that we must all have the courage to stand up to reality, regardless of whether you're an athlete like Biles or not in order to accomplish your goals. You must do this despite how unfeasible it may seem in order to reach your goals. The same fighting spririt displayed by athletes that powered through harsh conditions in games and that the author displayed when he was jumping off the diving board in a less significant extent, is the same fighting spirit displayed by both FDR and Jerry in their individual endeavors.
