Theodore (Teddy) Roosevelt became the 26th president of the United States when president William McKinley was assassinated in 1901. As the youngest president, Roosevelt advanced the progressive Republican program known as the “Square Deal” focused on conservation of natural resources, control of corporations, and consumer protection. Expanding on this theme, “The matter contained is this book has been carefully prepared from the many addresses by the President, the aim being to bring under each specific head the ideas expressed on many occasions, by Horace Markle.” Topics range from The Farmer to World Peace, and The Essence of Christian Character. - Summary by Larry Wilson (3 hr 52 min)

Just ignore TR's Racism and ignorance please, the chapters about the South, Lynching and the American Indians are the Racist ignorant chapters you must watch out for

Teddy Roosevelt was the last 'American' President


(5 stars)

Every president since them has beholden to an incestuous cabal of foreign and domestic money brokers who are more interested in profiting off of division than promoting the welfare and unity of the nation. But he was a Raycyst according to those same money brokers, so it is proper we tear down his statue and replace it with an alter to their Lord Mammon. Remember the proper way to fight inequality and Raycysm is to subscribe to Amazon Prime. For every dollar you spend at Amazon, .02 cents gets sent to a foundation run by Bezos's niece to fight intollerance.
