I have been visiting this site for years but until now never felt the need to comment, I assumed the rest of you had it covered for me and there was truly nothing to say. After going through the "100 Must read books for Men" listed here on the AOM I read the Rise of Theodore Roosevelt. This in turn led to countless other studies into the man and his life, as well as the lives he impacted. And in response to caveman sam, you have all the right in the world to feel negatively to TR, as any man, he is not perfect, but I truly feel that he strived for only the highest ideals and the truest versions of citizenship and purpose. Theodore Roosevelt led a life that many men would do well to emulate but applying his principles to our own. As for "The imperial cruse", I suggest AOM readers to do proper research into this highly opinionated and exaggerated piece of literary fluff before allowing the unshakable image of this man to change.

However, he was an enormous twat. Do some actual research into him and his life rather than just consuming the propaganda that he and others put out about him and you'll realize this. A good start would be "Imperial Cruise" by James Bradley. TR could talk the talk… like most politicians he was good at presenting a good image. However, he was an enormous twat.

Probably the perfect motto for any man to live by and certainly one of the most underrated speeches in U.S. history.

For all the criticism he receives, he is definitely in the arena getting bloodied up for causes he believes in. I totally respect him for that even if I don't agree with everything he's doing.
