Official answer
- (Franklin) Roosevelt（富兰克林·）罗斯福（Roosevelt）
Why this is the answer
Franklin D. Roosevelt (often called FDR) was elected in 1932 and served from 1933 until his death in 1945, longer than any other president. He led the country through the Great Depression with his New Deal programs and through most of World War II. He is the only president elected four times, which is why he was president during both events.
