Hell, FDR has his own "Ron Reagan Jr", as his youngest son, John Roosevelt. He officially announced he was switching to the GOP in 1947 and became increasingly conservative over the year. He vocally campaigned for Eisenhower in '52 and '56 over the rest of the family's wishes, and became a hardcore Nixon defender, causing considerable embarrassment to his mommy Eleanor.

I wonder what the Teddy Roosevelt wing of the family felt about that. I believe they are still Republicans, though his namesake great grandson "Teddy Roosevelt IV" is pretty much a useless RINO douche.

Interesting, I never knew about John Roosevelt.

The ordinals for the Teddys are messed up cause President Teddy never used Jr. even though HIS father was the first one therefore his son “Teddy Jr.” was actually the Third. I’m sorry but that should be a crime.

I noticed before that Archibald Roosevelt (son of TR) seemed to be more conservative than his father.
