The case mentions the relationship between the charity and partisan politics. What were the benefits and risks of this relationship?

What will be an ideal response?


The prestige of the presidency clearly benefited the fund-raising efforts,
especially when the president was as popular as Roosevelt. However, the blurring
of the line between politics and charity is not without some risk. In the
atmosphere of the 1930s, the media were not as aggressive in exploring the links
between charitable contributions and political favors as they are today. Even the
perception of an improper relationship could undermine the credibility of the
charity.
