During Roosevelt's presidency, the New Deal was implemented in the 1930s decade to combat the harsh situation of the US economy during the years of the Great Depression.
The New Deal was based on Keynesian economics that identified, as the major cause of the Great Depression, the extremely low aggregate demand figures. The solution proposed was to boost demand figures by directing large sums of public money to the creation of job positions for the large unemployed sectors, so that they could start to earn a salary and to demand products again.
Therefore, the Keynesian solution involved goverment interventionism in the economy at all levels. Also more regulations were demanded for the economy, in order to prevent a similar crisis the future, triggered by the private sector (more specifically, by the banking sector) and which had ended up damaging the whole economy.
Democrats had been losing elections in what had long been considered solid Democratic territory in the South. Lyndon B. Johnson, a Democrat who took up the presidency after John F. Kennedy was assassinated, had become associated in the minds of voters with the civil rights movement. The civil rights movement aimed to give black Americans equality. This did not sit well with white voters in the South. In the 1964 presidential election, the Republican candidate, Barry Goldwater, won the states of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina. Nevertheless, Johnson prevailed and won the election. But it showed conservative Democrats were willing to shift to the Republican party if they felt it more closely aligned with their views.
