Respuesta:
Much of the end of the speech tried to dispel complacency. Roosevelt laid out the situation and then pointed to the origin of the problems in the isolationism of the United States. He mentioned that "some of us like to believe that even if Britain falls, we are still safe, due to the vast expanse of the Atlantic and Pacific."
He denied this claim, saying that modern technology had effectively reduced the distances across those oceans, even allowing the construction of "aircraft that could fly from the British Isles to New England and return without refueling."
After pointing out the danger, the president proceeded to request action from the American people. He acknowledged a telegram he had received, and refuted his message, which he summarized as "Please, Mr. President, don't scare us by telling us the facts." The central fact that he appreciated for the Americans to understand was Heartland's geopolitical theory: "If Britain falls, the Axis powers will control the continents of Europe, Asia, Africa, Australasia and the high seas, and will be in a position to bring huge military and naval resources against this hemisphere. "
In itself he meant that they are safe despite if something happens to Britain and even denied what is "planes that could fly from the British Isles to New England and return without refueling."
