Oh, one more thing I forgot to add... a shameless plug for a friend of mine. If you ever get the chance to check it out, conservative Republican activist Joe Wiegand of Illinois does a brilliant Teddy Roosevelt impersonation. He routinely tours the country in character as Teddy and gives a wonderful history lesson showing what politics were like in that era a century ago.

I know of this Joe Wiegand, you speak of... a champion for fiscal responsibility in the late, great (sorry, mostly south of I-80) state of IL. Joe’s not afraid to call a spade (rino) a spade (rino) if, my memory serves me correctly. You and I have likely crossed paths at some point in time.

Your photo reminds me of a video I just happened to catch a few days ago on YouTube. It's a little over a minute of comporaneous footage taken at an appearance of TR in New Mexico in 1916 (3 years before his death). He concludes his speech with the doff of the top hat, just like Joe Wiegand apparently does now.
BTW, do you know of any audio of the real TR available on the Internet?
