Lincoln Discussion Symposium

Who is this gentleman?
[attachment=612]

A young Grover Cleveland during his days as a hangman?

Theodore Roosevelt?

I agree with Gene. It's Teddy R.

Smart guess, Roger, but kudos to Gene and Anita, it is indeed TR!

It's from the Harvard library website, and the cutline says:
"Theodore Roosevelt in a sculling outfit at Harvard around 1877. As a child, Roosevelt suffered from asthma. His father recommended physical activity to build his endurance, and Roosevelt developed a lifelong dedication to exercise."

Gene and Anita, you win an original TR sports outfit to follow suit. This was TR's daily warm-up:

Thanks Eva,

My daily warm up turns out more like this.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SND3v0i9uhE
(I wish)

Very nice, too, and sure as effective. I'll add a pair of knee- and ellbow pads to your prize.

Thanks Eva. Gene answered first but I'm happy to accept a prize.

This resembles my warm up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3U8pAM4VXvI

I know you like horses Eva so here's an exercise for you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGyaaqNaBz0

This person grew up to be a United States President? What is his name?

Millard Filmore?

Excellent guess, Joe, but it's not Fillmore.

James Garfield?

You nailed it, Joe. Kudos.

This young person grew up to be President. What is his name?

Calvin Coolidge?

I couldn't find that picture, but this one is close.
