Born in New York City, Roosevelt graduated from Harvard in 1880. He emerged as the leader of reform Republicans in the New York State Assembly in the early 1880s. Thereafter, he pushed practical reforms as head of the U.S. Civil Service Commission (1889-1895), president of the New York City police commission (1895-1897), assistant secretary of the navy (1897-1898), and governor of New York (1899-1900). He vigorously advocated war against Spain in 1898 and then performed heroically in Cuba as colonel of a volunteer cavalry unit, the "Rough Riders."

  • @vinnie1369 Ron Paul

  • @vinnie1369 HNIC? lol I haven't heard that since I watched Lean on Me with Morgan Freeman...

  • @tachikoma747 I think the point of my comment is that you only used a pronoun and didn't specify who HE was.....I was trying to make the point...albeit in a round about way....that HE could refer to Mr. Roosevelt WHOM THESE COMMENTS SHOULD BE ABOUT and not the current HNIC.

  • @vinnie1369 Obama was schooled based on the Alinsky model, which was incorporated into the community organizational activities of groups like acorn and storm. Puppet was probably the wrong word. Disciple or adherent is more appropriate. Obama did a good portion of his community work in the 80s and 90s.

  • @tachikoma747 Wait....ACORN was founded in the 1970's and STORM in the 1990's....so how do you figure?

  • @tachikoma747 The US was becoming a socialist nation. Under Obama it's becoming a Communist nation.

    AND I AM NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT!!!

  • @lafkdjay 1. Why did you capitalize all the letters in "era"?

    2. Learn to spell...it's IDEOLOGY

  • @pjmgame Are you really this naive? FIND ME ONE POLITICIAN WHO DOESN'T GET THEIR MONEY FROM CORPORATIONS!!! Come on pal. Use your noodle.

  • @Stavol2Dual I was also born in the same borough too, Manhattan :)

  • @tachikoma747 He's a harvard and columbia grad. When he ran for president where did he get his money from? The corporations. The money supply says it all.
