Name change?

edit

I am not aware this is the official title of TR's speech. I suggest a name change to "Theodore Roosevelt's 1910 Sorbonne speech".--Wehwalt (talk) 15:22, 18 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Per here, the title seems to be "Citizenship in a Republic".--Wehwalt (talk) 15:47, 18 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Bullfighting

edit

There is no evidence whatsoever that this speech has anything to do with bullfighting. Keep your barbaric customs if you wish, but don't smear better men in better lands with them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.219.110.205 (talk) 01:03, 7 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Improving the article.

edit

This article is very good, marred only by two silly intrusions from, I assume, soi disant editors.

One says, implausibly, that the article can be improved be being made longer.

The other says, incorrectly, that more in-line citations or some such stupidity are needed.

The article would be improved if the fools responsible for these insertions would remove them.

I will have finished my update to refine this article further on 22 April 2017; the refinement concludes 29 years of my work with the Office of the Original Wizards and as an Independent Functional Storyteller of the President H.W.
