President teddy?

Question

what are some important influences that shaped T. Roosevelts vision

Answer 1

Get thee to a Libary or Bookstore and snatch up a copy of 'Mornings on Horseback' by David McCullough...
That said the single biggest influence on Teddy's life was his Family, especially his Father who was 'eccentric' and his mother who had artistic leanings, together they encouraged Teddy to be an Individual, to set his own mark on society, to expand his intellect and to direct his energies to Public Service. The entire Roosevelt family influenced Teddy. It is amazing how many brilliant eccentric hard working souls there were among the Roosevelt family.

Public Service - - - - the Roosevelts were rich and they taught their children that this meant they were meant to Lead and to Serve - - - -

The other influence on Teddy was knowledge. He devoured books - -- - dry dusty tomes on every subject imaginable.

And then there was the journey west. When sickly young Teddy went West to 'rough it,' it openned his eyes to the vast expanse of America, its untapped potential, its treasures to be used and protected. Teddy's trip was also important for instilling in him his own ability to 'rough' it, to become self reliant, to draw upon his inner resources.

But once again, Family was the most important in Teddy's life, to study the Roosevelts is fascinating.
(Did you know that his family imported plate glass into America, the next time you are at the Mall, all those big splashy display windows reflect the Roosevelt legacy)

The Story of an Extraordinary Family, a Vanished Way of Life and the Unique Child Who Became Theodore Roosevelt
The brilliant biography of the young Theodore Roosevelt, a remarkable little boy, seriously handicapped by recurrent and nearly fatal attacks of asthma, and his struggle to manhood: an amazing metamorphosis seen in the context of the very uncommon household (and rarefied social world) in which he was raised""
"""The head of the household was Theodore Roosevelt (no middle name or initial), who was thirty-seven years of age, an importer and philanthropist, and the son of old Cornelius Van Schaack Roosevelt, one of the richest men in the city. Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt--Martha Bulloch Roosevelt, or Mittie, as she was called--was thirty-three, a southerner and a beauty. The children, two girls and two boys, all conceived by the same father and mother, and born in the same front bedroom, over the parlor, ranged in age from fourteen to seven. The oldest, Anna, was known as Bamie (from bambina, and pronounced to rhyme with Sammy). Next came ten-year-old Theodore, Jr., who was called Teedie (pronounced to rhyme with T.D.). Elliott, aged nine, was Ellie or Nell, and the youngest, Corinne, was called Conie. ""

Answer 2

Interestingly enough, Teddy Roosevelt seemed to be attracted to positions of power.

He earned an LLD (doctorate in law); became the New York City police commissioner; out West he was some sort of volunteer sheriff and captured a desperado in the badlands and transported him by horseback over rough terrain in several days travel to the local jail, Teddy then became the governor of New York, and then left that position to form the 'Rough Riders'; he then went on to become the secretary of the Navy, vice president, then President.

Despite being a 'renaissance man', Teddy Roosevelt appeared to have a permanent 'chip' on his shoulder and always played the tough guy: he boxed, learned Judo, and his famous maxim was to speak softly and carry a big stick.

Some said he was 'over-compensating' because of his sickly childhood with asthma, and others said he was a latent homosexual because of his obvious effeminate mannerisms.

Answer 3

Theodore Roosevelt was an incredibly competitive and driven person. He recognized the importance of courage and fair play and sought to create such environs in the USA. he was by no means perfect, but he did have a lasting impact on many aspects of American culture, including the survival of football as a collegiate sport and the creation of the NCAA as a governing body to assure fairness and an "level playing field". (albeit to mostly white athletes, at the time).
