If the grass looks greener on the other side, water your own lawn!
The grass is always greener where you water it!
I know right?
@@pangaeaproximap.p4408 ...that is an odd chord progression.
The grass is ALWAYS greener over the septic tank! Does that mean you should flush MORE? Or LESS? 🤔
True enough.
Wow I really want to learn more about Eleanor Roosevelt. She seemed like a remarkable First Lady. She even wrote in the news paper for the American people.
So very informative and thoughtful. Eleanor´s greatest sadness was her lonely, loveless childhood. She could not give what she did not have. An amazing couple, nonethless.
ya must have an acoustic problem .... the video uses facts & evidence as proof of her deviant, powermad racism
This misses a critical explanation for Eleanor’s “tea totaling.” Alcoholism was endemic in her family. Eleanor’s father Elliot (President Theodore Roosevelt’s brother), whom she deeply loved her entire life, died from alcoholism when she was a girl. Her own brother, Hall Roosevelt, became an alcoholic and would die from complications of alcohol abuse. She wasn’t merely prudishly abstentious, though undoubtedly some people inevitably perceived her as that. She’d seen alcohol destroy and kill people she loved, and drinking terrified her.
Teetotaling is the word. Nothing to do with tea--when the anti-alcohol forces were at a meeting discussing what level of alcohol use would be acceptable (in the days of the Demon Rum) one man meant to say "Total!" but stammered a little and it came out "tee-total." While it was made fun of at first, later the "drys' liked having a new specific work referring to 100% abstinence, no exceptions. Many people felt as Eleanor did, that alcohol destroys lives and kills, from their own personal experience.
As I understand it, Eliot took up drink to attempt to alleviate epilepsy. Of Eleanor would have been, likely, surrounded by women stuck on the demon rum.
@@Zenmyster Oh dear. I wonder if alcohol really helped Eliot at all. (The ketogenic diet was originally developed to help epilepsy--there was and is evidence it is helpful in some cases). Maybe alcohol helped Eliot blot out some of it, anyway.
Yes, and alcoholism was endemic in our country and the world and still is. Thus the brave but failed attempt at Prohibition (not just US, but Russia and other european countries).
Two of her mother's brothers were also horrible alcoholics. In fact, she visited the family house one day in October 1934 only to discover one of her uncles dead from alcoholism. Alcohol and its effects haunted Eleanor her entire life.
Thank you for keeping history alive!🇩🇪🇨🇦❤️🙏🏾
Very good piece. I appreciated information not given in other accounts.

What a great documentary! I really enjoyed watching it. My parents remembered FDR very well, as they were teenagers and in their twenties during Roosevelt's terms as President. They and I believed that FDR was one of America's greatest president. I myself believe that he was a greater president than Abraham Lincoln. FDR had to overcome almost impossible odds to become President and he led the nation through some of its darkest days during the Great Depression and the horrors of World War Two. I know that from my parents' stories those were truly terrible times and I am truly grateful that I was born long after the Second World War ended. This documentary just confirmed my admiration for the greatness of FDR as President.
FDR ignored all the communists in his administration. I despise him.
MadAbe was a heinous War Criminal!! Dictator not a president ~~
Well put! FDR was truly one of Americas greatest presidents and possibly the greatest.
I agree. For him to live with polio and be so encouraging to the nation.
I too feel that he was one of or even the greatest President
I don't blame Mrs. Roosevelt for abstaining from alcohol! My late father started drinking socially when I was a young girl, but Mother NEVER touched it! He became an alcoholic and began to treat us all so very brutally when he drank and was horribly evil to Mother especially! Not ALL people who drink booze turn into alcoholics, I know, but many are addicted and destroy their own lives and the lives of their families!
Mrs Roosevelt should follow her inclinations but not to allow her husband to have a drink or two is ridiculous. Too bad he did not have Lady Churchill for a wife. She was extraordinarily helpful to her husband and due to the stresses he had, she put up with an awful lot from him - (he was by all accounts and alcoholic - or seemed bipolar) but she stood by him and supported him saying he was a great man and got England thru WWII. Roosevelt had to put up with Churchill's moods and alcoholism and his desire to exert control over countries after the war - which Roosevelt did not want. Had stuff to contend with - in both Stalin and Churchill were so difficult to negotiate with.
Absolutely well done and definitely keep it up ❗👍👏👍👏👍
I read in the 1960s THIS I REMEMBER Eleanor's book account of her life with FDR. I didn't know she lived until 1962. I was born in 1953 and I am thankful that I have lived at this time in history.
Her autobiography is still to date one of the best personal accounts I've ever read.
Yes, she was just 78 when she died after being medically misdiagnosed and enduring grueling treatments killed her before her time. Her uncle Theodore's daughters were 96 and 86 when they died, and her aunt's daughter lived to 84.
@@travelseatsyellowlab This destructive medical treatment of the elderly is common. Elderly care is just or even more horrific.
@@travelseatsyellowlab How was she misdiagnosed? And what grueling treatments killed her? I thought she died from a drug-resistant form of tuberculosis which the doctors WERE treating her for however, in the convention of the day it took many weeks for a bone marrow test (which she had) to PROVE TB. The only thing I know that made her very sick were the blood transfusions they gave her to combat the severe anemia and the prednisone (which was a treatment for TB then) which caused internal bleeding.
@@retroguy9494 Of course the blood transfusions were problematic. Each time she had them, her body became increasingly resistant because there were fewer sites to accept needles because of the sensitivity to her skin. The transfusions were for treatment of aplastic anemia. As a result of the transfusions, she was developing severe headaches. Tuberculosis wasn't diagnosed until days before she died, so no, she wasn't treated for that and she ended up having a stroke after the more frequent transfusions were growing less effective. She didn't get to begin tuberculosis treatment because she became unconscious and died just days after diagnosis. For as wealthy and famous as she was, she didn't get a fair shake at living a truly long life.
@@retroguy9494 Prednisone can be deadly.
I thought that i knew more than i did. Excellent content. Keep up the good work.
God thank you🙏 I've been waiting for an FDR timline.
I too have been waiting for FDR
I’m obsessed with ‘The Big Three’. FDR is my favorite presi
David Reynolds is the best narrator for history there is period.
Very good no doubt. Peter Coyote (think Ken Burns documentaries) is right up there, too.
More recent research has found that Roosevelt actually informed Truman About the bomb early on.But Truman was not involved in the management of the actual project
This is a very precious documentary. Thank you VERY much for such a wonderful work. Cheers from the sunny Brazil.
Excellent video
The medical care of 1945 FDR received was NOT "botched". The effects of chronic tobacco abuse and alcohol on atherosclerosis and hypertension, and effective treatment and medical standards for antihypertensive medical therapy of hypertension were not yet available.
....my uncle, Wilmer Deckard, was FDR's right hand man SS agent. He traveled with him around the world to all the historic meetings. Wilmer began his career as a Pennsylvania State Police officer at Hershey, Pa. training center. He rose through the ranks to become the chief of the midwest division in Cleveland, Ohio. .......lots of stories....
I would’ve loved to be a fly on the wall some evenings when your uncle was telling stories.
Please record your remembrance of your Uncle’s stories. Would be fascinating and I think though 2nd hand, valuable to historians and FDR scholars.
@@mattkaustickomments The stories will be in the book I'm writing.
My great grandfather was also his ‘right hand man’ for 2 years. His name was John Webb. I would love to find more information on his service.
My great grandfather was also Chief of Police in Staunton Va. my grandfather was born out of wedlock and his fathers identity was kept a secret until ai discovered who he was in 2016 using Ancestry and had a DNA test. If you could please contact me i would appreciate it.
Thank you for the well done documentary.
Hombre:
- Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882-1945).
- James Roosevelt I ( 1828-1900)
- James Roosevelt (1760-1847)
- Isaac Roosevelt (1726-1794)
Verry impressive episode thanks for the learning
A very enjoyable and informative study.
Well done.
Unfair..how Eleanor is portrayed..without evidence...she was an amazingly empathic woman, trying to save lives..and she saved many and grew past her own personal difficulties...
She was empathetic to OTHERS, that's true. But NOT to her own family. My mother was the exact same way.
Great stuff
Another interesting chapter in the history. Great documentary.
Your videos are wonderful
Excellent program
Thanks!
It is so obvious judging by the footage that Stalin felt extremely uncomfortable. And the whole atmosphere is tense. They can’t hide it.
Congratulation for your video no doubt great persons
Excellent
It's been since discovered that he was actually suffering from Guillain-Barre Syndrome, a debilitating condition of the nerves and spinal cord that causes widespread body pain and deterioration.
To whom are you referring?
@@davidepperson2376 He is referring to FDR. I've read some medical information on that as well. Not much about either was understood back in 1921. If I remember correctly, they think this because 1) It was very unlikely that FDR at almost 40 would have contracted polio. It just didn't strike people that old. 2) The paralysis in polio is uneven and does not move up the body as it did with FDR. At one point, he was basically paralyzed almost up to the chest before it subsided back down. 3) FDR had very intense pain when anyone touched his legs. That is not common in polio patients. Guillain-Barré syndrome is a bacterially induced autoimmune disease. FDR may well have picked it up from some contaminated water at a boy scout camp he visited right before he went on his vacation to Campobello.
@@retroguy9494 people have gotten that from the COVID Vax. A friend of mine got it from that.
Sounds like sometimes his blood pressure went soaring - seemed he had a stroke at the end; but the Guillain-Barre Syndrome was just one more area causing stress in an already over stressed situation.
Being a survivor of GBS,and a student of FDR. even though he probably did have GBS,due to way it presents,it raises from the extremities while polio desends down the spine. GBS IS NOT FROM A BACTERIA. It is caused by an over active immune system hence treatment does not involve traditional medicine antibiotics etc. All that said it is better that he was thought to have polio because fdr was a leader in the March of dimes and the ultimate vaccine that was developed. Polio was a scurge on the population with thousands of victims. GBS on the other hand only affects 1 in 100000 people. Currently.
Churchill was right about the Soviets.
FDR surrendered Eastern Europe in exchange for the United Nations.
What a deal... (WHOOOOMP WOOMP.)
@@GHGore Well there was an attempt
There wasn't a war Churchill didn't like. If he could find paradise on a map, he would certainly make a damaging reference to God in the House of Commons.
@@GHGore yeah he should have just nuked it, right?
Oh they even went to Springwood IN NY so cool i love that house
“Men will thank God on their knees a hundred years from now that Franklin D. Roosevelt was in the White House,” read the New York Times editorial on April 13, 1945. “It was his hand, more than that of any other single man, that built the great coalition of the United Nations. It was his leadership which inspired free men in every part of the world to fight with greater hope and courage. Gone is the fresh and spontaneous interest which this man took, as naturally as he breathed air, in the troubles and the hardships and the disappointments and the hopes of little men and humble people.”
The 'HAPPY WARIOR' refers to Al Smith's campaign in 1928.
Very cool they filmed in Hyde Park, NY. I grew up across the street from the FDR Springwood estate. Interesting to think how history can be your own backyard.
God Bless America🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I was born in 1937 in WA state, USA so I lived through World War Two. My only blood uncle was a Marine in the South Pacific at that time and did make it home when it was over. I have told people that my two favorite presidents are Franklin Delenow Roosevelt and Harry S. Truman for what they did during those awful years. The second atomic boom was all that stopped the Japanese.
Roosevelt and Truman were traitors to the Sovereignty of the United States of America in their quest for a New World Order. We still have elected officials that want that goal so they can destroy the United States of American. In doing this, they are all Satanist, because God had the United States FOUNDED on the Bible. So, to destroy what God brought forth, well, they will all pay upon meeting God.
WOW HOW INTERESTING.
Churchill was of course correct on the question of Eastern Europe.
Yes I want to learn more
I recall hearing how FDR would purposely seat contrasting personalities next to each other at dinners. He enjoyed different people's personalities in different ways.
Either a true connasseur of persons or a near manipulator.
He and Joe Kenndy never got along, but Joe's influence with the Hearst newspapers helped him to be elected, so he owed him a favor. He could get Joe out of the country by sending him to England to be the ambassador. The protocol is to offer the position during a White House dinner. The dinner and hours went on and on without him popping the offer until Eleanor nudged FDR. FDR had Joe go upstairs with him and asked him to take off his trousers, saying the high formal attire at The Court of St James required the old fashion tights, and he wanted to make sure Joe had presentable legs.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt was one of the greatest presidents to sever as commander in chief of the United States of America. Yes FDR made mistakes, most unfortunate being the Japanese American internment camps but he lead the USA through the worse economic crisis in history and lead the USA through the greatest war in human history. Truly a great leader that people of America loved. April 12th, 1945 was probably a very sad day for many.
Interesting
Remarkable! I cannot fault his daughter as there was so much at stake. Absolutely incredible leader but like all of us, we must think about succession. The post-war world would have been so much different if FDR would have lived even a year longer. Elenor should have never estranged herself from her daughter. You don't do that to your children.
29:50 Well that's on the spot for today ^^
Stalin really was the big winner in 1944-6. He had no intention of following Wilsonian values concerning Poland and other Eastern European countries. He got everything he wanted. Eastern Europe was to be enslaved for 60 years despite the rhetoric of the western Allies to the contrary.
His mismanagement had Russia lost tens of millions more people.
Indeed I was born behind the iron curtain... Rumania
@@grantguy8933 was it mismanagement or intentional?
@@jamesporter5468 probably mismanagement and he certainly cared less or not care at all.
The Soviets had conquered those countries, and not sharing our values, Stalin treated them just as had czars for hundreds of years. The issue continues to this very day as Russia is in the process of invading and conquering Ukraine.
Teach & reteach. Learn again. 🌹
Behind a great person there's often an equally great partner
When I am reminded of how unrelenting Eleanor was towards FDR - it makes me recoil. Just looking at him at Yalta he visually looked so much weaker and older than he had been. Both Churchill and Stalin who were older in age looked more vibrant than FDR. His wife was obsessive in her demands that he hear her agenda and what she thought he should do - thus the 45 minute harangue on the phone the night before he died. Even this documentary mentioned that she could see in the grief of people's eyes and expressions what her husband meant to them. Like she could only get it by seeing it in their eyes? She seems more self-centered than I realized vis a vis her personal relationship with her husband.
His hand ?
At 32:06 Is visibly clear that the war has taken its toll on FDR. One of the greatest presidents. .
@deltaboy767: THE GREATEST, bar none :)
I love him❤
He was a mama's boy. Go visit their home where he and Eleanor are buried. Eleanor was relegated to the children's nursery while Mama Roosevelt had an adjoining room to FDR's.
Lol 😂😂
A mama's boy and a great man.
@@orangescoop13 Not really. He was an adulterer and an egotist.
@@onemercilessming1342 hmmm sounds familiar from the previous shitshow president...
Their marriage was doomed from the start. Eleanor had almost no strong role models to build a successful marriage. Franklin allowed his mom to make the big decisions for himself and his family. By threatening to divorce Franklin when she found out he was cheating, his mom had no choice but to step in lest she face public embarrassment.
You skip Molotov's visit to the White House on the way to San Francisco for the founding of the United Nations. Astoundingly to Molotov, Harry Truman bawled him out, (as Harry and I, Missourians both, would call it.) Because the Soviet Union was not keeping its promises made at Yalta to let Poland and the other Eastern European countries have democratic elections. Where did Harry get the idea that had been promised at Yalta? From Churchill, of course. Churchill got to him immediately. Harry knew nothing about foreign affairs. Assumed Churchill was the Great Man whose interpretation must be right. So Harry invited Churchill to speak at Fulton, Missouri -- where he gave the "iron curtain" speech that brought on the Cold War. Also: it wasn't when Stalin heard the atom bombs were dropped on Japan that he started the Soviet effort to build an atom bomb. He had known about our Manhattan Project for years, via his spies. Even had our design for the bomb.
This is excellent, but why does Timeline reupload this so that it appears new other than to get more views from people who subscribed and/or already viewed it?
We need another FDR and Eleanor!!!
Verdade amigo
I'm Polish and hearing some facts regarding to Poles and the country, ,U.S President said it straight and I respect it. If Mr. Churchil had kept his word,even if had allowed at 1945 Victory Parade Poles to attend this so important acknowledgment and a thank you for my hero to sacrifice everything. Poles are and have been just a place a buffer zone between Asia,Russia to act as West wishes.
Excellent information. I would like to know you. You are very handsome men!!!
And look where we are right now. Teetering on the brink of WWIII. It was necessary but allowing Stalin to get what he wanted was still a huge mistake...
Nah there won't be WWIII. Sleepy Joe is too much of wimp with dementia to take on the Pootster!
A great president
In my time as an elementary and High School student in the late 1950's and the 60's the Soviet entry into the Pacific War with their invasion of Manchuria/Manchuko was presented as a fast grab for territory and plunder against a Japan that the USA had on the ropes.
Forgetting conveniently the enormous effort and contribution of the British Empire and of China tying down the Japanese Army as America worried about the reinforcement of the Japanese Home Islands from Manchuria.
True I kept thinking about that when I was in school when we had to watch movies
Don't work harder, work smarter. And that's exactly what the US did in WWI and WWII without taking large casualties ourselves. We just came in and changed the tides of war then influenced policies that made our world what it is today.
I was told by an attorney, that Franklin was deeply depressed over his failing health and had some doubts as how the world would be after the war ended. Supposedly Franklin took his own life, and the government kept it secret. Is there anyone else out there that has come across anything similar?
Incredibly unlikely as Roosevelt's main reason for his forth term was to see the war through.
He desperately wanted to see the war through to the end, so thinking not likely he would have taken his life.
@@dr.barrycohn5461 Also, he wanted to see the War end and to see Russia joining the United Nations. When one looks at him at Yalta, he was already not feeling well and he had a 14,000 trip, ending up in a place that was not to suitable for comfort. Sadly I think that the 45 min discourse with Eleanor over the phone the night before, where she would not let up on the points she "had"to make (something I heard about many times before in other programs); In his state of exhaustion I think that brought his final stroke on. She was unrelenting in her opinions and what she wanted him to do. I feel that had she not been like an iron hammer - he might have lived longer. Actually at different times he would ask her to stop but she kept coming at him unrelentingly.
I have a very well-read friend (read Mein Kampf in German) hypothesized that Roosevelt may have been poisoned by Churchill in Yalta because Roosevelt did not want Churchill to claim territories after the war - in fact, wanted the British Empire to disband, ie in India. Churchill has a very bad history in terms of his colonialist attitudes. When asked about what to do about Ghandi (on one of his visits to England and who created such positive respect from the working class) Churchill said, "Hang the naked Fakir". While I didn't agree with him friend about the poisoning I do know that there are pretty vicious attitudes that Churchill had about the colonies.
No.
He lifted and held a nation together in a wheelchair and worked himself to death in the interest of ending the worst war in history. Simply one of the greatest presidents of all time.
except the Japanese interment camps
The best thing FDR did for the USA, from an Economist's review?
Die.
As a member of the International Economics Honor Society since 1985, I've read countless studies and books on the Great Depression.
The disconnect, and lies, of history books vs Economics studies is amazing, and of great concern.....youth and the public with no Econ background, are being misled.
His policies turned a recession, into the Great Depression.
Imparting unneeded misery upon millions.
Plus, he was an authoritarian hack.
He tried to pack the Supreme Court after his unconstitutional, immoral, and authoritarian polices got spanked.
History books are written by Leftists
....every mainstream Economist has eviscerated him...justly.
If your child's history book praises FDR...fire your school board.
@@AudreySmith-223 Agreed.
There is the NBC - ABC liar version of FDR. But what was he really ? A Zionist collaborator with Bolshevism.
@@jonglewongle3438 incel
The cold war is never been over. What happened in 1945 is still feeling felt today in 2022 with Putin's delusions of reimagining the Soviet Union. It's amazing at 30 minutes and 15 seconds how he compares dealing with Vladimir Putin to dealing with Joseph Stalin.
I don't know how old you are, but it WAS in fact over for a while. Thanks to Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev. And of course, Boris Yeltsin followed and things were still good. It was only after that former KGB agent and still commie wannabe got in there that things started going back to the old ways.
Excellent. But the title - what a bummer. Was this really necessary? Your film illustrates that this was NOT what defined him or should be most remembered about FDR. Indeed, he and those close to him went to great effort and pain to distract attention away from it, and instead onto the issues that mattered more.
Dan rocks 🙌🙏🥰
Very pretty portrayal of a man that could have put an end to the depression with corrections shown to him that, because of politics and his “friends”, he refused to implement!
🙄
Oh yeah I bet you could have ended the greatest economic crisis in history couldn’t you
@@squid.com8927 well Harding and Coolidge fixed their depression and created a decade of great prosperity. so why did FDR think that doing the exact opposite thing would fix the issue?
@@wojtek9675 they did nothing of the sort. The recession of 1920-21 was a result of demobilization and Harding and Coolidge did nothing to solve it. The prosperity of the 1920s was a result of progressive legislation implemented by T.R and Wilson meanwhile Harding and Coolidge hollowed out the middle class and set the stage for the Great Depression.
@@squid.com8927 😂 Woodrow Wilson was a moron and was a terrible president. The fact you think he did anything good just shows you know nothing
FDR is one of my inspirations, May he rest in peace also Eleanor Rosevelt. He’s one of the Presidents who’ve inspired me to want to run for President despite the benefits, to try to be a good leader, and try to make a better future for future generations after my time. God willing I can become a President of the United States One of the President African American with African decent. Amen. 🙏
Are there any good films on FDR?
Excuse me, actually, Franklin Roosevelt is the third and last of my Presidential Holy Trinity, after Abraham Lincoln and John Kennedy
Respond as well interesting
These Bitcoin scammers are going all out in the comments. Smh.
Report them, see what happens--click the three dogs, select unwanted commercial promotion or spam....
I am more surprised about Rosevelt believing he could change Stalin's mind. The russians (putin) right now shows such a comparison to this documentary as well as Putin still thinking in the Soviet Union, Imperializm and total authoritarian regime. Sad to see how these old guys haven't adapted and moved on with the global situation. The end of an era and not too good for the Russians right now. Ukraine, you go guys. I am so amazed and proud of you and your fight for freedom, real freedom. God Bless
Guy was a frontiersman who once came into some sort of contact with sasquatch. Interesting huh!
Different president I think.
FDR should never have run for a 4th term.
Micahs daddy was annihilated by the wheelchair president
The greatest president this country has ever had
Eleanor never appreciated Franklin? When did he ever appreciate her?
I suppose it's a 2-way street.
Thank me later.
They were very much in love at the beginnng. Eleanor never really forgave him for the first Lucy Mercer affair.
@@1234cheerful I agree with those observations. She was treated poorly by her mother as well. I think the betrayal after being in love was too much for her to bear.
If Eleanor didn't appreciate Franklin, it was solely because of his behavior. He never stood up to his mom, allowing her to domineer his wife and children, never putting Sara Delano in her place.
Had Franklin not married Eleanor, who was the real politician in the family, groomed by her aunt Anna Cowles, his political ascension would've been a lot more difficult than it was. Eleanor was wealthier than her husband, higher on the New York social ladder than Franklin and I believe part of her appeal to him was the fact that the then president was her uncle.
Why was there no treatment of how he first was elected president? There was no discussion of how he first unsuccessfully struggled to implement his policies to improve the conditions of the great depression. There was nothing indicating that FDR tried to pack the U.S. Supreme Court or that he disgracefully interred Americans of Japanese descent. It's as if the only time that mattered in FDR's administration was the last 2 years of his administration, ignoring the previous decade of it!
Wrong again, they arrested suspected Japanese spies, not innocent people for no reason. Stop your Whyte guilt trips
It’s embarrassing
What if the real FDR was the wheel chairs we rode along the way?
I had no idea FDR was so scandalous
Mussolini, the founder of the Fascist movement, called FDR the perfect Fascist due to his economic and social policies.
I guess that means FDR was a Fascist.
I heard he was kidnapped in Morocco. I liked his name. What is the mission or goal? The battle of Roncesvalles. Certainly, the American Dream.

AS much as the nuclear stalemate, the American navy made possible the worldwide prosperity we have enjoyed since the end of the war until now. This suceeding the more than 100 years dominance of the British Royal Navy.
What was his reaction of Churchill on the death? Roosevelt ..we have learned about Stalin?
Mr. Franklin D. Roosevelt was one of the Greatest President's in American History, He will always be '' REMEMBERED '' !!
All this is common knowledge about FDR
Don't know why, but my grandparents, Mommas side, did not like FDR.
They were intelligent
My Grandmother liked him as she was so destitute as a single parent struggling alone with six children receiving commodities and fabric to sew. I guess that meant the world to her in the depression years? The CC camps did alot of good and even built bridges in my small town area.
很久以前在电视上面看的，剧情大概这样：小学徒拿一个瓜还是葫芦削皮练习剃头，师娘经常喊他干活，他就把刀子插在葫芦上走了，后来学成了在给客人剃头，师娘喊他干活，他就把刀子插在客人头上了。
My favorite quote of his is I can either run the country or control Anna I can't possibly do both.
That was the other Roosevelt, Teddy
he couldn't do either.
@@bobg1069, Franklin Roosevelt literally saved American democracy and capitalism.
Rebecca wrong Roosevelt. Anna was teddy's daughter.
@@ffmedicmtfd Alice was Teddy's daughter whom Teddy made that comment about.
An excellent documentary and well-written narration. FDR set the standard for leadership that we Americans have expected from our presidents ever since.
documentary is well done but FDR isn't a standard of leadership by any measure in American politics. neither is Wilson, both were bigots and racists. they were also bad when it came to civil liberties during their administration.
