After reading FDR's first inaugural address, this is the summary I came up with:

 FDR begins by talking about how he's going to do what the public expects that he's going to do, which it talk frankly about what's going on. He then goes on to talk about how they shouldn't be scared of the problems(which is when he says his famous "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself" line). After this, FDR starts to talk about how the problems America is dealing with are only material, so can be fixed. After that he talks about how there is some fault for the crisis, so we all need to work better to be more competent in the future. Next, FDR talks about how something needs to be done, mostly by getting jobs for people, redistributing the economy, lowering taxes, and by setting up a system so something like this would not happen again. After this, FDR talks about how a kind of isolationism will be good while America's still getting back on its feet and that Americans should turn to each other for help. After this FDR talks about how the constitution is flexible, so he's willing to use that to help America. He ends by asking God to help America and help guide him.
