You know he was a eugenics proponent and white supremacist, right? I think he is a fascinating person who did many wonderful things, and I think the eugenics stuff was him being a man of his time rather than actually hateful. I just think it’s important to see the whole man, and not just the good things.

@U X i’m afraid you’re sadly mistaken. Everything is documentary points to shows that Roosevelt abhorred men like trump. Roosevelt disliked boasters and blusterers.

@@mahadragon He is sometimes criticized for being too bellicose in his approach to foreign policy. Some people who met him thought that his exuberant approach to life and personal interactions seemed a little nutty. Even though he did a lot to protect wild areas in the U.S., he also shot a lot of animals in his life. Of course, animal lovers aren't going to admire that aspect of Roosevelt's life. Business tycoons greatly resented his interference in their efforts to monopolize industries and markets... There isn't any way to win everybody's admiration in a crowded world, Mahadragon. The world was a lot less crowded in Roosevelt's day, but there were still many people alive at that time who found one thing or another to criticize in Roosevelt's life.

And tax revenue increased in both 1965 and 1966! Unemployment dropped significantly in both 1965 and 1966. So when a modern Democrat "claims" it doesn't work, Tell them to Google "Revenue Act" of 1964!

It'd be fabulous if other important, (particularly American), people's descendants, spouses, parents, and siblings would participate in other historical and biographical documentaries. I fear the current gotchya soundbite 24/7 breathless "Breaking 'News'" social wannabe UNculture will prevent most from being willing to risk doing so.

+iamlost2 building a hotel next to the grand canyon and a barrier to open borders are very different things. As he said in his annual message to Congress as President in 1905, "We cannot have too much immigration of the right sort and we should have none whatsoever of the wrong sort....The prime need is to keep out all immigrants who will not make good citizens. The laws now existing for the exclusion of undesirable immigrants should be strengthened, Adequate means should be adopted, enforced by sufficient penalties, to compel steamship companies engaged in the passenger business to observe in good faith the law which forbids them to encourage or solicit immigration to the United States." His views did not change over the course of his career. As early as 1888, he said in a speech in New York City, "I wish Congress would revise our laws about immigration. Paupers and assisted immigrants of all kinds should be kept out; so should every variety of Anarchists....We must soon try to prevent too many laborers coming here and underselling our own workmen in the labor market; a good round head tax on each immigrant, together with a rigid examination into his character would work well." As President, he restated these principles in his 1901 annual message to Congress, "All persons should be excluded who are below a certain standard of economic fitness to enter our industrial field as competitors with American labor. There should be proper proof of personal capacity to earn an American living and enough money to ensure a decent start under American conditions. This would stop the influx of cheap labor." He did not share the desire of liberals (and many business leaders) to import poverty and breed a new proletariat. In the same speech, he continued to urge that "we should aim to exclude absolutely not only all persons who are known to be believers in anarchist principles or members of anarchist societies; but also all persons who are of a low moral tendency or of unsavory reputation." TR thus opposed policies that would undermine living standards or support radicalism.

Yeah, they are like the coyotes we have here in the rural south. I've lost three cats and one dog. Don't go out my door without something to protect myself with. Only reason I haven't hung one upside down in a tree is cause I haven't had a clear shot at one yet. I've been out in my small forest at night in the attempt to bag one. They are a menace and will take down a human if given the chance.

Teddy, personally recruited the roughs and toughs out of society, to educate, train, organize and guide the first American Volunteer Army.....he called the Rough Riders. A collection of Blacks, Irish, gamblers, bounty hunters, Indians and other marginal men. They were trained at Fort Sam Houston to fight on horseback. Soon to be deployed to the tropics of Guantanamo Bay. My 17 yr old Irish grandfather was one of his leaders. Teddy thought my namesake was 21 yrs old. Teddy was the champion for and of all. He was a true conservationist. Remember too, his first supper guest at the WH, was Booker T. Washington. Professor Washington soon became his fast friend and advisor. Teddy, along with his followers, my grandfather included hunted mountain lion in northern Colorado. He literally bagged a monster. This President gave my immigrant grandfather and namesake a chance in life. He was a remains a hero to all. And yes, I have all of the paperwork. FYI....he hunted lions in Meeker, CO. I still hunt there to this day.

Arriving at the top of the hill, Theodore Roosevelt - Medal of Honor of the United States Congress and future North American president - "fired at the retreating Spaniards, seeing one fall and, although he was not sure if he had killed him, He boasted: 'I killed a Spaniard with my own hand like a hare. "The fact remains that 700 Spaniards had withstood the US attack of some 15,000 men on the hill of San Juan (Cuba) for 11 hours and that they lacked of the fearsome Maxim machine guns, Roosevelt arrived, moreover, when the Buffalo Soldiers - African-American military - had won the hill and there were only machine-gunned bodies, however, in Hollywood productions such as Rough Riders (1997) or Night in the Museum (2006). ), Roosevelt is described as a hero who liberates oppressed peoples and deserves a distinction.

I have to say TR was a man's man. And he deserves respect for being present for the battle at San Juan Hill. Although as stated, the actual event is far from the Hollywood depections. My biggest gripe about the affair is the photo of Roosevelt and the Rough Riders on the hill....it was cropped to cut out most of the buffalo soldiers. I'm a white southern conservative but no racist. Give credit where credit is due. The buffalo soldiers were very instrumental in winning that battle

Scrack Arcata I don't know if Putin was ever awarded the order of Lenin when he was a KGB agent for the Soviet Union, but I do know Teddy Roosevelt was awarded the American Medal of Honor. He's the only American POTUS to have done so. He was also shot once at the beginning of a speech he gave, he only went for medical care after he was done speaking. I'm bias though, he's my favorite US POTUS. He also cared very much for the people he served in all aspects of his life, and always thought of his men first while in the military. He was the greatest 20th century US leader, but I think it's a great thing for every person in every country to have a love for a past, or present leader. It helps to build a love for your nation and a love for trying to make it a better place for all your fellow citizens.

Well, my grandfather, an Irish tough from New Orleans, at age 17 yrs old, accepted an invitation from Teddy to train to become a Rough Rider. Tommy accepted, Teddy thought he was 21 yrs old. Together they ventured to Cuba. Both caught Yellow fever. In later life, that virus compromised both of their lives. My grandfather’s Irish immigrant family were sharecroppers in Dublin, GA. So I am sure they had some interesting conversations. These tough characters had much MOXIE. I have it too, and live highly engaged in nature, very remotely in a forest in West Michigan. Great content and share! I carry on the engagement with nature in the Rockies. Teddy once harvested the State of CO record. I believe my namesake was part of that entourage. I venture there for each September. And yes, I have all of the Rough Rider documents. It is wasn’t for Teddy , my mother’s family would have never evolved. Interesting, Teddy must have taught my Irish tough grandfather how to court classy ladies . Tommy ended up with one of Harry Truman’s classmates, since her father, a transplant from Dublin, IR., was one of the Founding Fathers of Kansas City, MO. They all lived in Independence, MO. One room schoolhouse dynamics.....lol! So part of Teddy mentoring this Irish tough, made him a sergeant and launched him into life. Giant steps for a teenager working the docks in New Orleans and boxing in bars. Tommy and Teddy most likely connected at the Menger bar, with Tommy there to fight....he walked away with validation, training and a job.....and a superstar willing to guide his passions. Hero’s like Teddy no longer exist. 👋👍🎯⛄️😷🇺🇸🍀💉

Teddy Roosevelt and Franklin were two very accomplished politicians. Teddy being a staunch Republican and Franklin was a Democrat. I'm glad Teddy went after the Robber barrons and successfully busted up several huge monopolies. Standard oil being one notable. Franklin was effective helping navigate our country through the effects of the Depression. The measures Franklin took to improve the economy was phenomenal. Franklin helped in multiple ways but one that stands out was his public works programs. Creating jobs by making improvements with highway's , canals and many other building projects made a huge difference. Franklin was very effective with communication. His fireside chats using the radio to keep the public informed of his efforts and successful accomplishments were eagerly welcomed by the citizens.

American fundamental ideals brought me half way to loving this country (especially when I was able to see them set next to many other nations') but the land took my heart fully. I don't hunt, but I support Roosevelt's vision of hunting. I fail to understand the moral opposition to conservative minded hunting. Animals in the wild don't die very humane deaths. They become prey, their teeth go and they starve, they freeze to death, it's terrible. A humane shot through the lung or heart is far quicker and humane.
