I've just been watching the Ken Burns doco on Netflix, I had no idea what an extraordinary man he was, they, the 3, for that matter where quite remarkable. Thank you.
In 1913, Roosevelt sent emissaries to the Amazon, Rondônia, and Mato Grosso regions to contact Marshal Cândido Rondon. Since his youth, the president nurtured a certain curiosity about the region. He ended up being invited by the Marshal on an expedition, with the aim of determining the route of a watercourse called the Rio da Dúvida, whose source is in Rondônia. That watercourse was eventually named the Rio Roosevelt, and the expedition was described in detail in the book Through the Brazilian Wilderness (1914; For the Brazilian jungles), with several Brazilian editions under the name In the jungles of Brazil.
That was a great explanation of Roosevelt I’m Canadian and I never but much thought in the American présidants but this was very interesting and I’m going to get books to learn more thank you.
Very impressive. So impressive, the Progressive Party was "occupied" by the loonies we see today. Woodrow Wilson followed Teddy Roosevelt on the same ticket. Compare the two.
Hey Professor Dave, have you done a video yet of President Millard Fillmore. If not, if you ever do one, and if possible, could you include some positive feedback on him, he generally gets trashed big time, most his own fault. Just if he had some redeeming quality. Probably the same for President Andrew Johnson. Ok thanks!
Teddy Rossevelt earned that spot on Mount Rushmore for all his hard work and a prime example that not every VP that stepped up as president after the death of their predocessor is not a complete failure like Tyler and in many opinion Filmore. I'm not going to say anything about Arthur as his presidency didn't end in failure, but unlike Rossevelt he didn't try to get elected for another term. I understand Arthur had health problems though, and he might have spared the country from going through having a vp step up after presidents death again just after he did so himself.
You left our the part that the foundations for the Modern Military Industrial complex were laid down prior to his Presidency but his administration put it into overdrive with the massive U.S naval build up.
When I was ten my dad took our family on a road trip to Mt. Rushmore. I remember asking my Father when I was a kid who the president I didn't recognize?? My dad said he was an Egomaniac that doesn't deserve to be on Mount Rushmore.
@@Wallyworld30 Never said that. Just an observation of irony that your dad brought you to a national monument and instead of answering your question and providing any kind of information, he just gave a very pointless, uninformative opinion of the man.
So Theodore Roosevelt was a professional badass
Basically Teddy actually was the man that L. Ron Hubbard only pretended to be.
haha that's a pretty good point
He's arguably one of the greatest people that ever lived, certainly from a morality standpoint. I like this polar opposite comparison.

Coming here before class so I can be the person that answers the questions for everyone else that doesn’t want to talk in class
Not all heroes wear capes (I mean maybe you do, I dunno), thank you from someone who has the answers but doesn't feel like talking.

the funniess starts at 0:03 and ends at 0:09.
My favorite president!!

Professor Dave Explains That’s my request.
Teddy Roosevelt: the most badass president
I don't like his imperialism or his killing animals, but I do like his other accomplishments.
9:34 I hope William Howard Taft's mental health made a swift recovery after that🙏
You somewhat forgot to include the 1904 Election map when you mentioned that he was elected to a full term for that election
Blah... Teddy, he's good. But, is he a match for Professor Dave? I sound like a broken record, but P. Dave is a true renaissance man.
professor dave?
WOW Dickinson, North Dakota
Well explained!

Oh yeah,about that charge up the hill?That was a regiment of all black soldiers.
1:54 💀
For someone who became president by a fluke T.R did an amazing job
You left our the part that the foundations for the Modern Military Industrial complex were laid down prior to his Presidency but his administration put it into overdrive with the massive U.S naval build up.
Loved the video. Perhaps you could cover the other Roosevelt in the next one?
The series is chronological, so it'll be a bit but I'll get there!
wow

Yikes
Guess your dad wasn't into the educational aspect of the trip
@@joevining2603 My Dad is smarter than your Dad. What are we doing here?

@@joevining2603 The point was actually salient. Who TF builds a monument to themselves?
Imagine being so chad you drop out of a university cause you were bored
First
