		The consensus among historians is that Hoover's defeat in the 1932 election was caused primarily by failure to end the downward spiral into deep depression, compounded by popular opposition to prohibition, Hoover's lack of charisma in relating to voters, and his poor skills in working with politicians.
		Hoover departed from Washington in March of 1933 with some bitterness, disappointed both that he had been repudiated by the voters and unappreciated for his best efforts, and also fearful that the new Federal government was about to embark on a string of wildly experimental and irresponsible programs that would only further damage the economy.
		Hoover was honored with a state funeral, America's third in a span of 12 months, coming as it did on the heels of John F. Kennedy's and Douglas MacArthur's.
