and bowing is just what ole "teddy" wanted American people to do. i realize a knee jerk reaction is Roosevelt but do some research folks,  he was not a friend of this country.

I think I would have to respectfully disagree.  He may have had some damaging big government policies, but he did the country a lot of good too.  He almost singlehandly rebuilt the US Navy when he was the assistant secretary.  Without what he did to the Navy we never could have made a dent in WWII.  He expanded US foreign policy, made us a player on the world stage, and set us up for most of what we accomplished as a nation in the 20th Century, not to mention his extraordinary battlefield service in the Spanish American War.
I have also stood in his "man room" at his house in New York.  Pretty hard to make the case that he was not a hunter, shooter and sportsman...
I don't agree totally with his politics, but I would not go so far as to say that he was not a friend to this country.
...that being said, I voted for Madison...

WW2? What happened to WW1 first. Are you mistaken FDR with TEDDY?
Franklen Delenore Roosevelt was president during WW2 Teddy Roosevelt was president just before WW1 like early 1900's 1901-1909 to be more precise.
"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter

We didn't use our Navy significantly in WWI except for troop transport, and remember we were only involved in WWI for something a little over a year.  It was the Navy that Roosevelt modernized prior to the Spanish American War that would grow to the force that was necessary to win WWII.  No, I didn't "mix up" the Roosevelts.  FDR inherited the Navy that Teddy built...

When it comes to hunting, Obummer takes takes the top award.  Look how many people are hunting for jobs, homes and so on.  Maybe I wandered off the subject a little bit. :IBCOOL: :IBCOOL:

I couldn't vote  :dunno:

Teddy by far. He was one of the original board at Boone and Crocket. He helped push for the Lacey Act to be passed. No question in my mind.
