These 4 brought me to tears:

Roosevelt felled by polio, living with it and serving others with polio, his wife Eleanor's political activity, and election to be the 26th POTUS. Includes some very sad personal details:

About the inscription on the FDR Memorial pic:

'Nazi forces are not seeking mere modifications in colonial maps or in minor European boundaries. They openly seek the destruction of all elective systems of government on every continent - including our own; they seek to establish systems of government based on the regimentation of all human beings by a handful of individual rulers who have seized power by force. These men and their hypnotized followers call this a new order. It is not new. It is not order.'

~ Address to the Annual Dinner for White House Correspondents' Association, Washington, D.C. (15 March 1941).

A similar (but misleading 'quote') is inscribed on the FDR memorial, in Washington D. C., which says

'They (who) seek to establish systems of government based on the regimentation of all human beings by a handful of individual rulers... Call this a New Order. It is not new and it is not order.'

~ Thus saith Wikiquote.

Enjoy, friends of the BOG (Barack Obama Group)!
