Summary

Steve VGuerra Given that it was a definitely possible that McKinley could have survived, what would have happened to TR?

It’s hard not to think that TR would be against some domestic tenants of the Trump administration as he was against Trusts and pro conservation is his reputation as a Trust Buster deserved?

Joe Jamsky I mostly just want to know how racist, and religious every president was, his impact on Natives and such?

New York Governor Charles Evans Hughes was potentially a candidate to follow TR in 1908 who shared Roosevelt's progressivism, but Roosevelt disliked him and considered him to be too independent, why?

The 1912 primaries represented the first extensive use of the presidential primary, why was this important for the progressive movement?

Why did TR run as a third party candidate in 1912?

Brent Hamoud What role did Elliot play?

Niall Gargan I'd be interested to know a bit more about TR's relationship with FDR. Mostly looking at the reason why they are from opposing political parties. I know the old story that FDR ran as a Democrat simply because he said they asked to run for them in the state senate. I'm wondering how true this is or if the two family factions had a bigger part. I would have thought that FDR would have followed the same political ideology or had TR's troubles with the Republican Party in latter year dissuaded him from joining them?

James R. Early If Roosevelt had survived long enough to run for president in 1920, do you think he would have won?

If he had won in 1920 would he have continued the US isolationist policy after WW1?

Joe Jamsky I would be curious to know if Roosevelt said anything interesting about the second amendment?

Joe Jamsky Which president would win a WWE royal rumble?

Brent Hamoud have we overlooked TR’s mind?

Adam Vonnahme When was he happiest?

Adam Vonnahme What was his legacy?

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to The Things That Made England. I'm Royfield Brown and with me I have. David Crowther of the history of England. It was the best of time. It was the work. She was the people's princess. It will fight on the beaches. Oh man. These are the things that made England. I have the things that made England. I have the body but of a weak and a evil woman. These are the things that made England. I have a body but of a weak and evil woman. These are the things that made England.
0:22.8	And the king of England too. These are the things that made England. Cry God for Harry.
0:29.0	And these are the things that made England. And St George. These are the things that made England.
0:36.3	It gives wind in Churchill sales to say we can continue to fight on.
0:41.2	Well, there cannot be many more famous events in English history than 1066.
0:45.2	It hurts even now.
0:47.3	Because 1066 is important.
0:49.1	Yeah.
0:49.4	But there's aspects of modern British culture, which I think get overlooked.
0:53.9	So I'm proposing that this week we do scar.
0:56.8	For me, the English flag has in the past certainly become associated with factionism
1:01.3	and, well, hideous, racist and far-right views.
1:05.2	And it's turned into a thing of disunity and almost xenophobia.
1:12.0	The idea of this show is to decide on what things that make England as she is, the country
1:17.3	that despite it all, we feel lucky to be part of.
1:19.9	Every week, one of us, that's David and I, will pitch an idea to the other to be designated
1:25.0	as one of the things that makes England distinctive. Go and join our
1:28.8	shiny new Facebook site where once a month we will post a poll where should you so desire,
1:33.8	you can make your own very suggestions for applications to the I Made England Award. So without more ado,
1:40.0	let's do it. It was the best of time. It was the work. She was the people's princess. She was a fight on the beaches. Oh, man. These are the things that made England. A little fight on the landing ground. These are the things that made England. I have a body but of a weak and evil woman. These are the things that made England. And the king of England too. These are the things that made England.
2:01.8	Cry God for Harry! And these are the things that made England. And St George!
