His nature was such that he would be more like a Bloomberg or Perot today. Perhaps, but not like Obama. TR was anything but an extremist. He did his own thing -- I think the analogy with Perot isn't a bad one in that respect, but he was a great politician as well. He would never have supported the kind extremist agenda Obama supports. In fact, he would have been far, far closer to McCain in this election than to Obama. Probably the most important distinction is he didn't mince words and he didn't pander. Obama does both, McCain does neither.
