the Ford Model T wasn't "ancient" during WWI... It was a current high production vehicle at the zenith of its model run. [unsigned]
So towering was Theodore Roosevelt that his children, and their accomplishments, trials and tribulations have often been overlooked in the popular mind. I've expanded on the articles on Kermit as well as as "Archie" to show what unique and gifted individuals they were. SimonATL 13:42, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
Added info on family history of depression that seems to be traceable to his grandmother, Martha Bulloch's side of the family. SimonATL 13:42, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
This page is difficult to read; there are too many pictures clumped together. I don't have the wikifu to fix it myself, so if someone could possibly do some rearranging...? 64.211.50.218roguesparks
The article lacks specifics regarding his plunge into depression that I think would be of great interest.
Specifically, what were the "problems" referred to that drove him further to alcoholism upon his medical discharge? That he had dishonored his family name by not being able to complete his duties in war? After a career that reads like a success story including accomplishments achieved while still on military active duty, the reader is left to speculate.
Also, who and to what extent were these 'acquaintances' referred to as being such a negative influence on his life that FDR felt compelled enough to send him off to Alaska? This seems to be such an extreme measure of forced isolation that requires some explanation. Ydef 08:37, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
I noticed that when this is categorized, it gets put under the K section instead of the R (see here). I'm guessing this has something to do with the "Template:DEFAUTSORT:Roosevelt, Kermit" link near the bottom of this page. I won't try to fix this because I don't know how, but someone who does know should. 66.234.32.20 19:35, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
What is this crap posted under his death? It's unsourced and sounds like some odd inspirational email or church tract more than it does a wikipedia entry. I've no wikifu of my own, somebody fix it. -- Bluedeanie ( talk) 05:21, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
The following information is about his son, Kermit Roosevelt Jr., [and so was r]emoved from page.
"Roosevelt's role in the 1953 CIA coup to overthrow the government of Mohammed Mossadegh in Iran becomes part of the plot of Nick & Jake, a novel by Tad Richards and Jonathan Richards, published in 2012 by Arcade Publishing. In the novel, The Roosevelt character becomes Larry Darrell, the hero of Somerset Maugham's The Razor's Edge." [1]

...for transfer to another article. It was inappropriate for a single child of the title person to have a long paragraph, and the sources for that inappropriate volume of content were poor, and incomplete. This information can be moved to the article on his son, if the sources are completed and verified:
" Kermit Roosevelt, Jr. (1916–2000) was the mastermind of the Central Intelligence Agency's (CIA) Operation Ajax, which orchestrated the coup against Iran's democratically-elected Mohammed Mossadegh administration, and returned Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the Shah of Iran, to Iran's Peacock Throne in August 1953 for the purpose of returning Western control of Middle Eastern oil supplies.
