Meanie. My great-grandfather rode with him in the Rough Rider days. He was said to be a one-of-a-kind human being, and we have National Parks from coast to coast on account of President Roosevelt.
The national parks and monuments are noting more than naked federal land grabs, something the modern liberoidal excels at....He's also the original meddling interventionist warmonger.Meanie.

As president, Roosevelt created five national parks (doubling the previously existing number); signed the landmark Antiquities Act and used its special provisions to unilaterally create 18 national monuments, including the Grand Canyon; set aside 51 federal bird sanctuaries, four national game refuges, and more than 100 million acres' worth of national forests.
There are more National Park Service units dedicated to Roosevelt's life and memory than any other American, including Theodore Roosevelt National Park in the Badlands of North Dakota, where he shot his first buffalo and set up a ranch.
You have NFI how much land the feds control in the 11 western states, do you?
Your point is well taken, but the combined Federally-protected lands are not necessarily National Parks, and Roosevelt was the inspiration to many states to set aside lands for the people of their state to enjoy as State Parks. In fact, you could probably name some of them if you put your delightful parasailing mind to it.The national parks and monuments are noting more than naked federal land grabs, something the modern liberoidal excels at....He's also the original meddling interventionist warmonger.Meanie.
