Well, here's what I think.
I actually was not a fan of the fight at the White House because I just felt like it was... I think what I love about the Teddy Roosevelt is Teddy Roosevelt would fight.
Teddy Roosevelt was the guy who got in the ring.
Yes, he had fights there, but also wanted to fight there.
I just don't like the money-making part of it.
I like the fighting part I get.
Teddy Roosevelt has this, Nixon has bowling, everyone present has their thing.
I just didn't like the cash value of it.
But of course, how could I not think of Teddy Roosevelt when you're thinking of fighting?
It's the guy who truly was the guy who had fights at the White House.
Listen, he's complicated.
Every hero, and I, listen, I owe you a huge thank you.
This whole series started, I came and launched it on your show.
It was to give people better American heroes to look up to.
We started with the obvious.
I am Abraham Lincoln.
I am Amelia Earhart, people we love.
I am Rosa Parks we've done together on this show.
and every book i've done glenn someone has written to me and said that person has this wrong with them not wrong with them they should have done this they shouldn't have done that and they're right every person we've written about is complicated the only person that's perfect and you know is of course god and everyone else take a number right we're all flawed in some way and teddy roosevelt the reason why it took me so long this is our 39th book in the series
