I understand your viewpoint, but we will have to agree to disagree. Comparing AC to Teddy Roosevelt is a bit of a stretch.

Oh? Both were men of power, influence, and drive with similar interests (remote natural locales, hunting, the outdoors, physical fitness and athlectic prowess, and new technologies).  For the times ACG was an enlightened progressive employer and TR was a Progressive. They were both Republicans. Both were in the public eye. Other than one was educated at Harvard and the other at Yale, they would both have had a heck of alot to talk about.
