Here’s a glimpse of the past and the future together.  Can you identify the man on the left in the “cockpit?”  It’s Theodore Roosevelt. Roosevelt was a president who focused on the future. Not only was his vision forward-looking, so were his actions. In 1907, he ‘saw’ the future of aviation and linked his name to its improvement. He changed the United States Navy from one of wood and wind to one of steel and steam. He created the National Park system. He busted the giant industries of the day. He attached his name to the Progressive Party platform and most of those planks are mainstream with both political parties today. We need a President and Congress that will drag us kicking and screaming into the future. Not to mention governors, mayors, state legislatures and city councils. Roosevelt was the embodiment of the adage “A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.” [See my books at https://authormasterminds.com/master-of-the-impossible-crime.]
