Dave Radar


On Teddy Roosevelt

"It is not the critic who counts. ... The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly ... who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly; so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat."
T.R.

Theodore Roosevelt, the twenty-sixth President of the United States, is often considered the first “modern president”. More than any other national leader or individual American, he is responsible for America’s rise to world leadership status. Conservationist, soldier, statesman, scholar, Nobel Prize winner, and Medal of Honor recipient, he remains one of America’s best models of presidential, global, and executive leadership.
Visionary, crisis manager, charismatic communicator, strategic thinker, negotiator and decision maker, he was the most distinguished and accomplished transformational leader of his age. As we examine and evaluate our presidents and other national and global leaders, it will be helpful to see how they compare with TR. He is the model of presidential and global leadership for modern times. — David S.

Nobel Peace Prize

Role: Collaborator of various peace treaties, President of United States of America

Field: negotiation

Prize share: 1/1

Theodore Roosevelt, President of the USA, received the Peace Prize for having negotiated peace in the Russo-Japanese war in 1904-5. He also resolved a dispute with Mexico by resorting to arbitration as recommended by the peace movement.

Roosevelt was the first statesman to be awarded the Peace Prize, and for the first time the award was controversial. The Norwegian Left argued that Roosevelt was a "military mad" imperialist who completed the American conquest of the Philippines. Swedish newspapers wrote that Alfred Nobel was turning in his grave, and that Norway awarded the Peace Prize to Roosevelt in order to win powerful friends after the dramatic dissolution of the union with Sweden the previous year.
