Historical Reflections

Of all of the historical figures we have studied this year, including—but definitely not limited to—Presidents, philosophers, politicians, leaders, social movement-ers, and the many everyday people that have contributed to American history & culture, who would you most like to run into in college?

When I go to college, I would want to have Franklin D. Roosevelt be a speaker in one of my courses. I would like to think he changed American for the better, and he has a lot of experience with world issues, politics and beyond. He would be there to be a mentor, and an educator for future politicians. He would speak about International Relations, and anything in between.

"This is preeminently the time to speak the truth, the whole truth, frankly and boldly"

My choosing the great Franklin D. Roosevelt is because, He has taught me so much already, although I was only taught about him by my teachers. He has changed the way America is ran today, I believe of he still was president he would be able to save America, yet again. I would have him speak in my World History class, we would educate everyone about everything America before he was President, and after his passing. He would share his great wisdom, and motivate to all college students to make American even more amazing.
